‘What great effects frottt little causes spring,
Wliat wealth does labor well directed bring I

A single stroke of an axe is‘ of very little
conscqtieiice, yet liy continued application of
that small pots er, properly directetl, what a-
litazirg effects are produced I. The sturdy
oak and lofty pine do not singly owtt its power,
but whole forests fall before it and the wilder-
tiess becomes a garden. _ _

Inditstry well directed, will give any map a
competence in ten years. The greatest in-
tlustry niisapplietl is useless. .

My neighbour Sattitiel Steady, is not only
bu industtioiis ntan, btit his industry is applied
to one object. His ltanitiier is heard in his
shop at the cock’s crowing, and the fire blazes
in his shop during the wiitter eiieiiiiigs from
the 20th September to the 20th March. ac-
cording to the old Saybrook platform. Goto
his shop any time ofthe day, and bespeak a
plane iron or a plough-sliare—-a grate or a
gridiroti--yott are sureto he stipplietl. The
consequence is, his old purse is filled with dol-
lars—a‘nd his cellar storetl with beef, pork and
cider-—“ attd that’s what I call cotnfortable.”
Suitably liberal, and eiijtiyitig the good nflife
as he goes on, ten years of health will enable
him to btty the best plantation iii the country.

But there is my young friend Nathan No-
tional‘; he is the busiest anti most industrious
mortal in existence ; btit, as the saying is, ‘ he
has too uiaiiy irons in the fire,’ and with all
his industry he goes behind hand.

He has a fine farm, bitt instead of pursuing
the cultivation ofit, he flies off, seeing every
new project that occurs. Last year after lla-
ving sowed a number offields til grain, he re-
solved to let his farm'—sell the grain on the
ground, buy a team and go to liaulirig, for by
3 nice calculation. he has proved that niottey
could be made by it. A team was procured ;
but after going one or two trips, Notional
concludes to sell his teant—biiild a saw-tiiill
and go largely itito lumbering. The dam was
completed, the irotis matle,aiid tliree-loiirths
of the expense incurred, ivlicn by a nicer cal-
oulation (for no one makes nicer calculations)
he found that an oil mill would afford the best
profit; and to work he weitt with great indus-
try building an oil mill. Ihappctied to go
there a Week or two afterwards, and the whrile
organization of the tiiill was undergoing an
alteration, to fit it up for a cotton and woollen
iuantifactory. A qitizical neighbour of mine
intends to-morrow to proposeito hint to abatt-
don his project, and to enter largely into the
inanufacture offltittr ; atid I have not the least
doubt but Nathan will readily accede to the
proposal. _ _

so, sir, with all his industry and expense,
he is not benefitted nor the public. Such a
course continued ten years would sink the
best farm in the country.

If you would kill game,
’ It is true you must shoot ;

But then you must aiin‘,
And hold steady to boot.

 

Tom Roberts the Learned Cobbler.

A'Tract with this title has‘ beeh recently
published in England. It is designed to coun-
teract the niiscltievtius influence ofa class of
men who are somewhat numerous in Great
Britain. aiitl are not wholly unknown in this
gounlry——\V8 mean uien who liavingobtaiiictl
a smattering oflearning,have DCCOIIH‘. iufitlels.
Tom Roberts is one oftliis class. He is a
cobbler, antl rather skillful in tl'ispiitation‘,- but
ifat any time the argument is likely to'go
against ltiitt, his way is “ tti begin hainnieritig
a shoe-sole with such iutlnstry and noise, that
all farther reasoning isin vain.” In the tract,
this infidel cobbler is contrasted with a re-
spectable wea-ver who possesses gootlgeiieral
iitformation and is a plow man. We copya
part of aconversation between Tom and the
‘Weaver, in wliich the former attacks the Bi ,
ble. because the miracles which it records are,
as he expresses it, “ contrary to the establislied
Order of nature.”--.N'. Y. Observer.

“ For my part", I‘tliink~ the laivsofnatttre

men should impose upon us, than that such a
thing should be. Probability is against it,

‘I think,’ said tny father, ‘that he by whose
boiindless power these laws were framed cati
alter them at his will.’ ‘ Tliere’s your shoe.’
said the cobbler, hastily ; ‘it is ftiiir pence.’
‘It usedto be but three pence,’ said my fa-
ther. ‘ But I cannot do it for that now,’ said
Tom, ‘ leather is so dear.’ My father ptit on
his shoe, and paid four-pence, btit seetnetLiti-
clined to have a little ttiore chat. ‘ What is

Faust THE BALTIMORE GAZI-2'l"1‘E.

MEXICAN MINES. The operations
in and relating to the Mines iii the Republic
of Mexico, are becoming highly interesting to
the people of the United States. Sotrie of
the best informed and most investigating of
otir citizens, who have visited that country, do
not hesitate to assert, that within a short pe-
riod these Mines will be made quite as pro-
ductive as they were iti the years 1804 and
"05, when, according to Humboldt, the a-
mount ofthe coinage of Mexico exceeded 27
millions of dollars. Later official s'ta'teinénts
tipoii this subject, as“‘ivei learn, reduce the it-
tnoiintoftlte coinage in the year I891, to live
or six ttiillioiis of dollars. An increase of2l
millions per aunuitt in the precious metals, in
it oeigliliourittg Republic, with which the U.
States are upon the itiost favourable terms,
can» it fail to make a material autl tnost lien-
eficial change in otir commercial prospects.-
Our cotton fabrics in particular . will meet
with an extensive and profitable market in
that country, where labour will always be in
reqtiisition for the Mines while they continue
to be productive. It will be gratifyitig to our
readers to learn, that a Company has been
fortned in this city, and the necessary capital
sttbscribed for the purchase of some valuable
Mines in ilie Real of Teitiascaltepec, distant
about 100 miles frtini the Capital of Mexico.
These Mines have been visited by several per-
sons froui the United'States, who concur in
representing tlietii to be of great value-—atitl
what must give tti them a decided preference
over the Mines undertaken or purchased by
the British Companies, is the advantage of
water power that can be applieil to work the
itiacliittery appertaitiing to niining, and free-
ing the tnines frotn water, which ntacltiiiery
in the other Mines has to be worked by atti-
tnal poii.-er, at a very great expense. The af-
fairs oftliis Company, as we are infortn’d, are
C0|lillIC(l to the nianageincnt of seven persons,
who are geiitlcinen of respectability and en-
terprise, qualified and disposed to do every
thiiig that may be requisite, to prottiote the
interests oftlte stocltlioltlers. We untlerstand
tlial they have engaged a geiitletttaii of New
York, who is an experienced ‘?ll'_'llteer. to con-
tract for the itiacliiiiery, &c. all Of-Wlllcll, it Is
stated, is now preparing at West Point, and
will be in readiness to be shipped front New
N. York about the first of April next. We
sincerely wish them success in their under-
taking, with the added hope and belieftltat it
will prove highly advantageous to our city, as
well as to those particularly who are iunnedi-
atcly concerned in the stock.

HENRY CL.\Y.—--A few years since,
shortly after the agitation ofthe faittous coin-
pensation bill in Corigrtess, Mr. Clay who vo-
ted in favor of this bill, upon rettiriting litiiiie
to his constittietits, ftiiuitl a foriiiitlalile oppo-
sition arrayed against his re-election. After
addressing the people froiti the Hustings pre-
vious to the opening of the ptill, he stepped
down itito the crowd, irltere he tnet ait olil
influential friend of his, named Scott, one of
the first settlers in Kentucky, and of course,
in his younger days, a great, litintsrtian. This
gentleman, stepping up atlllressetl Mr. Clay
as follows :‘ “ Well, well, Harry, I’ve been
with you in six troubles; I am sorry [must
now desert yoti in the seventh ; you have voted
for that niiserable compensation bill ;—I itiust
now turn my back upon you.” “ Is it so,frientl
Scott? Is this the only objection ?” “ It is.”
“ We must get over it in the best way we can.

You are ati old hiintsuiati ?” ‘.‘ Yes.” ,“ You

have killed toatiy a fat hear and buck?” “Yes.
“I believe you have a very good rifle.” “ Yes
as good a one as ever cracked ?” “ Wel|,tlitl
you ever have a fine buck b« fore _voti, when
your gtin only snapped 2" “ The like oftliat
has‘ lizippenetl.” “ Well ntiw,,friend Scott.
did you take that l'a-ttlift-il trifle atitl break it all
to pieces oit the very next lag yoiicoiiie to-—
or did you peck the flint aittl try it again?”
The tear stood in the old tnau‘s eyes. 'I‘Itc-
ctird was touched. " No Harry, I peeked the
flint and tried her agetin——atirl I'll try you a-
gain—give us your hand.” We need scarce

ly to say the welkin rang with the IlllZZ'llllll_'
plaittlits of the by-stautlers. Clay was éiornt‘
off to the ltu-stings,and re-elected~.—-FreePri:ss.

That the Scriptures ofthe Old and New
Testatneiit contain a Revelatioii of the tititid
attd will of God to man. V

That our first parents were created perfect

to the tittestioiis ofthe same bearing that liatl

boldly, and spent nearly an hour iti maintain-
ing the reverse of these two propositions.

He did not believe the Old and New T95-
tanient to be the word of God any itiore than
believed any other writings to be the word of
God: tieither did he believe the writers of
those books to have been inspired any ntore
than the writers ofother books are inspired.
When he thus explicitly stated his opinion,
sottte in the room loudly applauded. Others
gave signs of disapprobaiion. And otlters left

VVith respect tocliildren, he had had much
experience. He had had litany of them un-

they were naturally depraved)-. Their depra-
