Let me relate an anecdote’ofa cltild offive
yeais,which lately came under my knowledge.
fie was a boy of quick feelings, and one of
the most pertiiiacious little qtiesttoiii-is I ever
saw. Being at a country village not far from
the city, he was eager to make use of the lib-
erty he enjoyed there, by going into every
house and shop, and seeing what every body
in the iieigliborliood was doing. Oiie.alter-
noon, he sauiitered with some other children
till they came where, tliioiigli the open door
of a slice-in-.iker’s sli«,p,ti-ere seen halfa dozen
men smartly plying the thread and aivl.—
Cliarics had never seen this work done—and
sat himself down immediately to look on.—
An hour or two after. he came breathless into
the parlour, where his friends were sitziiig,aiit_t
burst forth with the history ofthe wonders he
had witnessed.‘ He had gained a pretty good
notion of the etnployiiient, but did not know
tthat was attached to the thread in order to
pass it so quickly into theghole made for its
reception, nor the name 0! the instrument by
which the leather was pic-rc_ed. He said--
as ']‘in- man was sewing tip leather with a foikl
and some twine with pig’s feathers on the end
ofii.” A lnud laugh from the company,wliich

go directly to the shop,he had lately quilted,
and his rettirn was awaited with soin_e impa

Remarkable Dreom.——Being in company
the other day when the conversation turned
upon Dreams, I related one, which, as it hap
period to my own father, Ic-an answer for the
truth ofit. About the year 1731, my father,
Mr_ D, of}( ,iii the county nfCutttb6r «
land, came to Edinburgh to attend the classes,
having the advantage of an uncle in the regi-
ment then in the Castle, and remained under
the protection of his uncle and aunt, Major
and Mrs. Grifiitlis, during the winter When
spring arrrived, Mr. D. and three or four
young gentlemen from England, (his intim-
'aies,) made parties to visit all the neigliboring
places about Edinburg, Rosin, Arthur’:-i Seat,
C,-gig filillar, &c. 8«z.i:. Coniiug home one
evening from some ofthose places, Mr. D.said,
-~ Wt: have made a party to go a fishiiig to
in.-_h Kifllll to niorrow, if the itioriiing is fine,
and have bespoke our boat ; we shall be ofl"..t
six,” No objection being rnatle, they s--paia-
red for the night. M rs. Grifiiths had not
been long asleep till she screaiiied out in the
most violent agitated manner, “ the boat is
sinking ; save oh, save them ?” The Major
aw-.-.lteil her, and said “ VVere you uneasy a-
bnut the tisliitig party .9" “ Oh no,” said she,
“Ii.-ad not once thought of it.” She then
ctiiiiposetl herself, atid soon fell asleep again ;
in about another hour, she cried out in a
dreadtiil fright, “I see the ‘boat is going
down.” The Major again awoke her, and
51,3 said " It has been owing to the other
dreaiii l had; forl feet no uneasiness about
it.” After some conversation they both fell
sntttid asleep, but no rest could be obtained
for her; in the most extreme agony she again
screamed, “ They are gone, the boat is sunk!”
When the Major awaited he-:, she said, “now
I» cannot rest ; Mr. D. tnust not go, for I feel,
5-;--,(,ut_r_t he go, I would be miserabie till This re-
,,,,-g, ; the mouglit ofit would almost kill itie.

tlebted to him for preservatioii. I will never
meelm Loith, at six o"clock_?” “ With greatl
truth you may say your aunt is ill. for I am so
at present ‘; consider you are an only_son, on
der out protection, and should any thing hap-
pen to you, it would be niy_tleath."’ Mr. D.
immediately wrote a note to his friends, say-
ing-that he was prevented joining lhemi and
senthis servant with it to Leith. _The morn-
ing came in most beautifully, and continued
-so until three o’clock, when a violent storm
arose, and in an instant the boat atid all that
were in it went to the bottom, and were never
more heard of, nor was any part ofit ever
seen. I have often heard the story from my
father, who always added, “ itghas not made
me siiperstitiotis, but with awlul gratitude I
never can forget, my life, by Pt'oVid6nG€9 “"15"

Murder indicated by a dream.——Tlie follow-
ing extraordinary circuiiistance we have heard
gfrotii the party concerned, times Charles
Ware, Esq. of Norfolk :-—“ About the latter
end of Antnitin, 1819, Iliad retired to rest
one evening earlier than usual, having invited
some frietids to supper on the follotvitig night.
I liatl slept some hours, when dreamt that a
lady, clothed in a long white robe, rushed into
the chamber, and fixing her eyes upon me,
with a look ofagnny exclaimed, “ ’I‘liey will
murder him 1” and itiiiiiediately a cry of one
in paiti fell upon my ear. I awoke, but all
was silent tliro’ the house. and I again coin
posed myself to slutnbcr. I had scarcely clo
st.-tl my eyes, however, wlteti the same figure
g ve uie the same warniitg, and the Salllr‘ cry
was heard. I started from sleep, and awoke
my wile, to wliotii I related my wonderful
-iieaiii ; but she said it was absurd to pay any
Jltrlllltlll to such faticics. I again fell asleep,
and a third time the same figure appeared,but
this tImt' it was all blood_t, and wliispercd, ' It
isioo late-” The cries were repeated, and I
awoke’ a third time in a cold sweat ; the cry
nfii.isti‘ess still rung oti tny wakiiig sense ;—
my wife was also awakened by the noise ;—
and C()llS(1ltlllS1ll£il my dream was not a mere
illusioti, I hast-ily snatclicd my pistols from the
table, and rtlSlle(l\tlti\Vt) stairs. The cry still
.-ontinued, but not so loud as at ‘first; tli._-
sound sseined -like the gurgling ofblood in
the tltroat. I cooked my pistols,and flew in-
to the kitchen, wliencc ttic sound seetnerl to
proceed, when the first object that caught in)
eye was a wrctcli,armcti with a large knife
slitlllt-‘.t.l with blood. The uiaii wore no coat.
but his sleeves were tucked up to his should-
ers, and his arms, face, and shirt, it ere all co-
t:ered with blootl l I rushed forwartl and col-

A melancholy act ofsiiicirle was comtniticd
on S-atiiiday morniiig, on the banks oftiic
North River, near Hyde Park, in Dtitctic~s
coiitiiy. Slgll0rFlUf8lll, well known to iiiany
of our most respectable fauiilies as an accom-
plislied tezielit.-r oi the Ilrtllilll language, and
wlio~li'as for some weeks past been engaged in
that .task at Hyde P-n-k, has found dead on
Satuitlay niorntng on a rock near the ri'.'cr.~—
F-oin .tp“pcaraii'ct-5, it would seem he hail first
attempted to diowii himself?--liis clothes were
all Wet——lllal not sti_cccc-ding, lit‘. had tiscciidcd
the bank, undressed himself, laid’ his clothes
carefully under a stcne,and than t) iiig a black
silk Iiaiitllterchief tight round his neck, tic
thrust his right hand under it, and twisted the
liaiidkerchiefso as to produce strangttlatiun.
The body was found while yet ivarin, lying on
ilic right side, the. right arm under——tl:e right
hand fast in the folds of the. iieckcloili, and
the head thrust under a projecting ledge oi
rock. There was no intlicatioti of coiivulsive
struggling in the position ofthc body or ltintis.
Tlie,'act st-zeined to have been perpatiatezl Willi
great deliberation. A COt‘0l‘lt't’S inquest was
held, of which the verdict wasfclo dc 33. A
friend, anticipating that such tiiigiit be the re-
sult, andtliat the rites ofCtiristian burial in
consecrated ground might be denied to the
deceased, had previously with pious fraud,
coiiitiiitted to the church yard all that retniii
ned of poor Fiorclli Front the evidence sub-
mitted to the Coroner’s jury it appeared, that
-.lllS act had been for some time iiietlitatctl by
the deceased--lroiii what cause is not conjec-
tured. This gentleman came to New York
from Paris, about eighteen months ago, rec-
oiiitiieiided to, and by, some ofour uiost dis-
tiuguished citizens. He had been an advo
cdtc 0| st-tinting $1. good couiiexions in Rome,
iviieiice political diliiculties drove him to Pa-
ris. Front thence he came to this cit.y,wliere
he has obtained an honourable and lucrative
existence, as an instructor. He was age..tle-
man and a scholar. Disappoiiittneiits, per-
sona|_or_ political, may have preyed oti his
spirits. and led to the rash deed which we
have detailed.-.r1inerz'can.
[1 urnz'ti'ly.—Nti man ever lost the esteem
of a wise ttiaii by stoopiugto an honest l0Wll;
ness when there was occasion for it. I have
ktiowii a great duke to fetch in wood to his
int'eiior’s tire; St. a general of nations descend
to a l'ootinan’s oflice in lifting upithe boot of
a coach ; yet neither thought it a degradation
to their dignity. The text gives it to the pub
lican’s humility rather than to the pharisee’s
boasting. He may well be suspected to be
defective wittiin, that would draw respect to
liiinself by tiiidulyassutiiing it. What is that
man the worse, who lets his inferior go before
liiui? The folly is iti him who airogates ije
spect when it is not his due ; but the prudence
rests with liitn, who, in the seteneiiess of his
own worth does not seek for it. Humility
prevents disturbance: It rocks debate asleep,
and keeps men in continued peace. When
the two goats met on a narrow bridge over a
deep s=;reat_ti, was not that the wisor,whicli lay
down tor the other to pass over him, than that
one which would rather hazard both their
lives by contending ? The lornier preserved
liititself from danger, and made the I itter iii-
think tiiyself disparaged either by preserving
peace or doing good. He is charitable, who
for christian eiids can be content to part with
his due ; and he who would take tny due from
me, wrongs not me so much as himself. I
have ever thought it indiscretion to vie in
continued strife. Prevailing" is but victory lti
part. The pride of my opponent in.iy stilt
tt'tlI‘dlll unconquered. If Ibe subdued, ti.»-
siiiciny snaine, I purchase his contci-iipt to
boot; When yielded out of prudent.-e,i tr.-
Isay to my young friends, whom I was to
said Ridgefield, on the first Moiitlays in No
A
Iliad rather as accounted too lidttible, than
be esteemed a little proud. The former
tends to virthe and wisdom 3 the latter to dis-
liotior and vice.
Bent;/its qffldversity.--A smooth sea never
made a skiltol mariner. Neither do uninter-
rupted prosperity and success qualify a man
for usefulness or happiness. The storms of
adversity, like the storms of the ocean, «H0058
the faculties, excite the invention, prudence,
skill, and fortitutlc ofthe voyager. I‘_lie inat-
tyrs and confessors of ancient times, in brac-
ing their minds to outward calamity, acquired
a loftiness of purpose, a moral heroism,‘ that
was worth a life of softness and morality.
It is the etiquette at Cambridge and Ox-
ford that no gentleinaii speaks to another uti-
less he has been formally introduced to hiui ;
and a story is told ofa studeiitrefusitig to as

on" the Cam, and struggiing to reach the

acquainted with him. ‘
