From the Providence Patriot of Saturday, The following lines were written by the late James O. Rockwell, Esq. a short time previous to Lis death, ou the blank leaf of a lady’s hymn book. This was his last production—it beto kens the purity of a soul unshackled by the sel fishness of earth —of a mind that soared alone to heaven, the home of the good, the brave, and vir tuous.

Anew scheme has been started in Haiti more, denominated a “Wonderful discovery lin Mechanics,' or the “ Wonderful Lever," | which is intended to supersede steam, and to 1 move a boat by tlie mere clHc.iency of anew ! Lever.—A correspondent of the Baltimore j American gives the following account of it 1 — | Our readers must judge lor themselves of its feasibility. “ This lever, or to speak itwrc correctly, the two watch barrel screw leve rs placed in a wheel with water buckets, presents really to the eye ol the scientific observer one of the most sublime discoveries, power and velocity united, that ever excited the wonder of man, combining the utmost simplicity with other excellencies, and owing nothing to gas, com pression of the OUT, or steam, the power of which it infinitely surpasses. It consists ol two very broad and flat watch barrels three quarter diameter of the paddle wheel with a round hole on the middle with a short tick pipe, and another small pipe on 1 the centre through which the shaft passes, both pipes are loose, but fixed together by a a piece inside and between them at one point only ; both pipes are placed in the hole of the barrel, the small one will be fixed by its base to the water paddle wheel; a circular piece in the tbrin ol a spiral with one or more turns, without elasticity, called the screw lever, is placed inside of the watch barrel, and fixed by its end on the side of the largo pipe, and the other outside crid is fixed on the border or inside of the barrel ; one other screw lever similar to the other is placed on the cover of the watch barrel, attached by its outside end to the border of the barrel ; ’the inside end has a square hole in which the shaft of the wheel is lodged. Now without watch barrels, place the screw lever with two or more turns like a spiral without elasticity, tho centre end attached to the large tick pipe above mentioned, and fix the small pipe ny its bases to the water pad die wheel, and let the shaft pass through free, two self aeting fulcrum levers, one will he tiexd by one end to the outside end of thcscrew lever; the other long lever end is fixed by its fulcrum to the edge of the paddle wheel’; the two other cuds ol both levers advanced in a central line to come in parallel of each side of the centre of the wheel; a catching piece with a square hole, and one pin on each end will receive the round hole oi both ends ol the two long levers, and the same for the other side, this give s more than 200 feet of lever to awheel of ”0 feet diameter. A large and broad hoop about the diameter of the bar rel above mentioned, supported by two tri angular levers, the two shortest branches of both levers are fixed on opposite sides of the flat part ol the edge of the hoops in a cen lial direction ol each, with a round hole at the centre, where the siiatts passes through without touching ; the long branches of the i k v ‘ r are attached by their fulcrum to the edge of the paddle wheel opposite each other, and the hoop rests suspended; this hoop is placed between the two watch barrels, or the lever a spiral screw leva r, the whole appara tus occupies loss than two feet of space in the wheel. i lie opinion ofthe best informed personsis that this invention will, by its great advanta ges and its great economy, prove a certain and rapid growth in navigation, in fact a vessel will cost three times less in building. A vessel of any size can sail on the open seas I °r in titers w ithout any other aid than this I lever. One wheel placed within the vessel is enough. A power sufficient to keep up the motion ot the wheels is enough. The great est power is in the wheel, and this force is i equal to one hundred horsepower. A voy age to Europe will he completed in 15 or 1R days without any risk except that of coming in contact w ita another vessel,rocks, or light | ning, and can navigate in all seasons.

What may be done by Industrious Habits. Mr. Woslev, the venerable founder of the I Methodist denomination, is universally allow |ed to have been an extraordinary and highly distinguish; 1 character. W hatever may be thought of his peculiar sentiments, no one can deny him the credit of truly apostolic zeal and benevolence in what he conceived to be the way of duty . For upwards of fifty years be travelled eight thousand miles each year on lan average, visiting his numerous societies, j and presided at forty seven annual conferen ces* For more than sixty years, it was his ; constant practice to rise at four o’clock in the morning, and nearly the whole of that period i fo preach at five. II;: generally preached near twenty times a week, and frequently 4 times a day. Notwithstanding this, very few have written more voluminously than he; I divinity, both controversial and practical; his tory, philosophy, medicine, politics, poetry, & c * were all, at different times, the subjects on which his pen was employed. Besides this, he found time for reading, corresponding, : v isiting the sick,and arranging therinatters of i his numerous society; hut such prodigies of labor and exertion would have been impossi hie, had it not been tor his inflexible temper ance and unexampled economy of time. Yet, to suppose that he had iio failing or that ho was free from faults would he absurd; hut after viewing his sufferings, and the ex treme of his success, with an unprejudiced mind, it is impossible to deny him the char acter of a singularly great and worthy man. In 1701 he finished his career in the 88th year of his age. In the course of which time he preached near 40,000 sermons and travel led about 400,000 miles.— Worcester Rep. I ACiRICI LTI RA L From the Southern Jgriculturatist. PLANTATIONS. | On the general management of a. Plantation; EV W . W. U.VZZASO. “West Point, (Geo - ) 4th April, 1831- I Dear Sir, —You request to know w'tat is tny general system of management ! I en deavour to employ those means in conduct iugr the internal or domestic police of the plantation, which in my judgement is deem ed best calculated to promote the comfort and Contentment, and suit the condition of the subjects over whom they arc intended to ope rate, and at the same time, secure subordina tion and good order. Those means should he assnr.sivc and just, as Well as imperative and effective. To tho end I rarely punish myself, but make my dri ver, virtually! an executive ollicer, to "inflict punishments; that I may remove from the mind of the servant who commits a fault, the unfavourable impression, too apt to be indul ged in, that it is for the pleasure of punish ing, rather than for the purpose of enforcing obedience and establishing good order that punishments are inflicted, as it is no picas me to a humane judge to sentence a fellow creature to he hanged, and at one fell swoop plunge him into eternity. To impress this more forcibly on their minds, when they have urged as a pica, that they are servants, and must submit to the w ill lof their masters, who can do as they please: I hatc addressed them m a mild and simple : manner, assuring them that the laws of the land have secured to them rights, which a master dare not violate, without ineeurring the risk ol a heavy penalty, “by imprisonment and la bour iu the Penitentiary, for a term not less j than one nor longer than five years,” and “it ; is the duty of the Inferior Courts of tho sever : ulcounties iu Georgia, on receiving infirrtna tion on oath ol any infnn slare being in a suf fering situation from neglect of the loir r.ir, "to ! to make particular inquiry into the situation |of such slave, and render such relief as they in their discretion may think proper,” and “they arc authorized to sue for and recover from the owner the amount appropriated for ! <he relief of such shire.” i ins protection which the benevolence of our laws have thrown around their persons, to save them in old age and infirmity from want and wretchedness; the boasted philanthro- Phyof Europe and the Northern States have never extended to the poor,old, white man!! 1 have told them too, that a soldier for diso bedience of orders may forfeit his life, while they for a similar offence are only chastised : because it is the interest of a master to [ire serve the health, vigour and life of his ser- I \ tint, u hicli produces amoral connexion and i attachment betwixt master and servant, that treak, violence or misrule seldom severs. | W hen any quarrel or disturbance occurs on | the plantation, one or two not implicated are examined in the presence of the accused, who have the right to correct false statements, and establish their innocence, by reference to other testimony, which is immediately pro 'bleed by the driver, or if absent, and the case an important one, judgement is arrested until the necessary information can be pro cured. I never permit a husband to abuse, strike or whip his wife, anil tell them it is disgrace ful for a man to raise It is hand in violence against a feeble woman, and that woman too, the wife of his bosom, the mother of his chib dren, and the companion of his leisure, his midnight hours. If the wife tenses and ’pro voltes him by her nightly clatter, or crabbed deportment, and lie complains and establish es the fact: she is punished, but it sometimes happens that the husband petitions for her pardon, which I make it a rule not to refuse, ns it imposes a strong obligation on the wife to use her tongue with Jess bitterness, and be more conciliating j„ her behaviour. II the driver suffers any irregularities on the plantation, or careless work to be repeated in the field with impunity, I reprimand him in private, then publicly ; and tell him, that as a religious man, as lie professes to be, lie should recollect, that if he cannot be faith ful to his earthly master who is at all times near him, providing food and clothing for his use anil comfort; that tho scriptures have de clared, lie cannot be faithful to his heavenly master whom he has never seen. If this simple mode of reasoning, fails to excite his pride, I then appeal to his passions, and rouse his fears by moderate punishment.— This being one of the rare instances, where the master, or manager should inflict the punishment, and not degrade tiie driver by allowing a private to punish ; which will hum ble a driver and postrate his authority, that should he absolute. If one negro steals from another, or from me, the driver is required to take of the ma rauder’s goods and chattels an equal quanti ty, and restore the loss, or the thief is cer tainly punished if ho cannot make restora tion, or if fair promises are made, time is al lowed for restoration. Drunkenness, if riot ous, would be punished by lving i:i the stocks all night and drinking a pint of warm water. If a negro is sick a pint of corn is de ducted from his allowance every day: be cause if he is really sick tho nurso supplies him with good gruel, he therefore, dot s not require corn, and if he is merely shamming, a reduction of rations, like stopping a sailor’s grog, will induce him to be more active in the performance of his duties. The driver keeps an account of his sick ness, and renders an account every Saturday of the work done, an acre notches on a stick, and in the same manner on his walking stick. So that if any mistake or fraud is committed, I immediately detect it; if his listing, bed <dug, and planting accounts do not corres pond. He also keeps an account of the number of calves nmrkeif, branded and altered; the names, colours, and qualities of our hounds,; and the cause of their death; the time wc plant vegetables and how they produced, with a list of flowers in the parterre. Thus have I endeavoured to give you a brief sketch of the internal police of the plan tation. To encourage industry and increase the comfort and contentment of these people, I allow every one, a task iff ground', and a half task for each child capable of working. They have one Saturday to prepare, and an other to plant their ground, and aft. rtvards are assisted with a mule and plough, when it can be spared. They manage it their own way, and the entire produce is appropriati and to their purposes hot subject to my control, and raise with it as many poultry as they please. I give to families having six chil dren living, one cow, with the male issue; reserving the heifi r calves. When the fam ily increases to ten children living, I require no other labour from the mother that to attend to her children. Whenever they are sick a careful nun comes in the morning, reports their case, gets the necessary medicine and administers it, or the patient is personally examined. W till regard to tho agricultural depart ment, if we do not intend to clear land, as soon as the crop is laid by, and all the corn blades stripped, dried and housed, we com mence listing (in August) at the rate of from one and a hall to tw o tasks to each full ham! (able bodied man or woman.) As soon as the listing is completed we clean out old ditches, dig Others, and repair the fencing, if a late crop delays cotton picking. \\ hen the crop is gathered and prepared for market, w e com mence bedding, by running two fttrrottglis directly through the alley, so as to break it up well, and then bed with the hod, at the rate of lroni two to two and a halt tasks to each hand, as the ground may be heavy or light. Me first commence planting potatoes in large flat beds without cutting them; then early peas, (which are now up,) corn, and lastly cotton, in all just five acres to each taskalde hand, that is every negro capable of working over two tasks of "ground generally in a day, and sometimes they have a part of a day, having finished their task. The corn is planted three feet apart, and thinedto one stalk ; we formerly planted on the list, but find a good flat bed the best, os it. saves a hoeing and elevates the plants above the smothering weeds around it. The eolton is planted on large, flat, wide beds at eighteen inches or two feet distance, and thined down to otic or two stalks as tho soil is loamy or sandy. On the third of April the whole crop was planted ami the side hoeing commenced, as we never hoe down if it can be avoided, consid ering it ruinous to the crop. Me are cruelly calumniated, and reproach 's with a keen point have been hurled at the slave-holder, ever since the sanctity of law bus checked the avidity of gain, and tho trades* men in human flesh have become the snivel ling philanthropist, mourning over the objects of their traffic. But the condition of these people in Fouth-Carolina and Geoxgia is in finitely preferable, to the plebians of Rome, and the canaille of France, tho Circassians of Egypt, the Gil.len of Flanders, ami even the peasantry of polished England, and not to he compared with Asiatic and African w retched ness. Here the slave is not required to pay a burthensome tax ; lie cannot he forced into hattie, or made to do militia or jury duty: while the limvanc laws of England transports the African from the land of his birth, the homo of his children, to sacrifice their lives j in the cause ot a king, they have never seen, and in defence of a government they know nothing about, and derive no benefit from: where a law 1. ss press-gang can tear from the bosom of a helpless family their onlv protect or, their chief support, and drag a ploughman from his plough, merely to-increase the w ar like array of an ambitious monarch, or sh. and the lustre of renown on some royal favourite; dotard. Yet so strange is the inconsistency ot mankind, that this system ot slav. rv unto < death,has received-the halo of approbation.' and the sanction of custom has reconciled all generations to it, while we are vilified for* improving the condition of these indispensa-! ble auxiliaries to Southern agriculture.
