affectionate, had serious impressions. Blessed
with 7,; good mind, and eriyoyitig the advaitta-
es ofan English education, like Samuel of
old being a child of many prayers, and like
Timothy knowing the Holy Scrtpttitesfiotn 8
child, at least as far as the natitral mind can
comprehend them, it was doubtless with heart
felt joy that thechildren ofGod heard that lie
was h’-peftllly bortt again. He offered litm-

the name ofihe Holy Trinity, mingled wtth
God’s people, and for go while seemed to run
well. Having reniovcd from his Cllli1’cll,.l1e
‘anti others, in all about seven, were .formed in-
to ‘a church, anti mutually pledged themselves
to watch over each other in lover filld 9_"d9"'
mat to promote the cause "of religion iii the
world. He now seemed to think hiutsell se-
cure, ttd itntifeditttely lieganto give tvay to
an’ exdesstve use ofitrdettt spirits : for which,
,after a long course ofipaintiil dealings, he was,
by an unanimous vote, expelled from the
Clltll'Cl‘l. His subsequent condtict has proved
that, “ although he went out from us, he was
not of us ;" for- he “ increased. to more and
niore ungodliness,” uhtil, having gone front
‘had to worse, his poor faintly feared him in
his intoxication, as they would I! HIV?-D005
bcastofprey. A tender wife frequently felt
the cruel scourge ofa whip at his hand. Alas l
infatuated man, he seems to have forgotten
that Jehovah has said, “ Vengeance is mine,
'1‘ will repay,” “hurt not ttty elect,” “ do my
chosen no hrtrttt,” and “ wltoso iottcheth you,
iottchetli the apple ofliis eye.” A few days.
since, I was at the house ofa gett_ileuri_an of
piety_ who is it near neighbor to the siiltyeci of
this narrative, when a boy came in haste, anti
begged in the name of his mistress, tltat_Mt‘.
....'._.. would go over quickly, for her little
son, four or five years old, was dying, anti alas!
her husband was drunk, attd she knew ttot
what to do. VVitli feelings tiifficult to be de-
scribed, Iaccoinpanied ttty friend. ‘We found
the child cotiipletely convtilsed, and evidently
on the borders of eternity. -Paying but little
‘attention to the intoxicated father, we endea-
vored to revive tltc dying child, and comfort
the distressed mother. Again and again were
our ears stunned with the most profane oaths
frotn this debased fatlter. Coming to its lie
‘would fitst eittreat us and then coitiniand us
to save his dying son. One iuotnent he would
sob aloud, and the next, like an incarnate de-
mon, he would swear iii the most startling‘
manner, that his child was dying, and turittug
,0 mg.’ he wouiii ash whither I cottsigtied his
son. Although he was drunk,I ‘felt it a duty
to speak, and told him 1 was but a tnortal, and
that God alone disposed-, of his c'reatures.--
He seized the opportunity’, as though he do
lighted to torttire, and with horrible oaths he
bitterly swore his child would go _to lieaven;
and thither in a few days he intended to follow
him.. lreplied, If yoti die itt .yoiir present
state, I fear you will never see your child a
gain. When entreated to leave the room,and
no more startle his child with his l10Yflbl_E_
curses, he friglttftilly swore it‘ was his son and
he would do as he pleased. He once asked
wltat he should do; we" begged hint to drink
no more rum while his child was dying. In
reply to which, he sait.,_witlt a dreadful oath.
he would never quit till stopped by death. I
inquired iftliejusijudgnients of God hard llli
effect on hint. He said he was more ofa phi-
.lUSOpll€l' than to be moved by such eveuts.--
As his conversation was utostly in oaths, I te-
iiiinded him that when he swore so loud, the
convulsion sat stronger oti his cliil(_i,—-which
only drew forth attotlter volley ofctirses; and
three times did this monster ll1C8l'lltlI*’ stand
at the feet ofhis elyitig child. and take heavy
rlraughts ofititoxieatitig liquor, anti swear if
we felt as he did, we could not refuse to drink
with him. The cltild died, \\ as laid out, aitd
like a detttoniac the. father dragged the dead
botlv from side to side of the house, now on
the floor and tltcn in the bed. Such, oh sin !
are thy trophies. Such, oh intemperancel
are ttty baleful etl'ects.. Reader, are you a
candidate for matritnony ? consider well this
narrative. Remember, he who gets drunk
occasionally or twenty, is apt to be a beastly
dritnkard at forty. Wltat "were the feelings
ofthat poor mother .7’ How did her affection-

New Steam Engine and Baihsr.-—-The N_
Y. Daily Adv. gives the following description
ofasteam engine lately put in motion at Mr.
M’Qneen’s furnace in Duane street, N. Y,

It is a simple wheel of cast iron, with thiee
hollow amts,(or spoke.-:,) and a hollotv rim,
capable ofcontaining 10 gallons. The axis
re,-nfvgs with the wheel; but it has a hub
which is stationary, and through which the
steam is admitted and discharged. The size
and weight. are to he proportioned to the pow-
er desited..""I-‘lie weight ofthis wheel is 1500
pound. ‘ The lower part ofihe rim is cliatged
with a qttaniit of quicksilver, the use of which
we shall soon explain. _ 4
' When one of the arms is turned to a hori-
z'otital‘position, a groove in the axis opens up-.
on at hole in the hub, by which steam is admit-
ted fromthe steam pipe through" the arm.-—-
On entering the rim, it closes a valve just a!
have the arm, and by its pressure against it
tends to move the wheel, while its downward
force presses down the ql1lCl{5llVel;. ~Wlten_
the arm re cites the perpendicular, it dischar-
ges tltesteam through the axis in the satne
ntallller in which it received it. The second
arid) then Ireat-lies, a horizontal position, opens
Z1L‘t'2lltX_hl1[llC21ll0Il with the steam pipe,.and
.llt:(!I:Ill(‘.S charged ; the valve closing, and a
may impulse being comuiuiiicated to the
tt'l,/-el and to the mercury. It. will be easily
understood, that as the three valves opens the
/éanie way, the mercury passes, freely through

' ’.l'lE[!)__,lrVl1ll§ the steam successively closes theii.t.«

We said this engine in discretion, and 35 far

as we could judge, it seemed to‘-possess great .

advantages over all we had met with. ‘Wle
understand that it has met the approbation of
several practical engineers, atid is regar,_de,d
as a successful attempt at the direct applica-
tion of steam. Experiitieuts have beeti made
in England to obtain this object; btit were
abandoiied on account of certain. obstacles,
which now appear to be surmounted.

A full load of quicksilver is 500 lb.0r 600
lb. and fornts a moveable resistance or piston,
while“ the friction is so small that it cannot be
perceived in-moving it by battd.

It is well known, by the use ofthe ordinary
steatn gauges, tliatit requires one pound pres-
sure ofsteam for every inch which this col-
umn oftnercury is raised out of level. The
coluttin of mercury in the rim of this wheel is
108 inches in depth. and consequently will
resist a pressure ofstetim to 54 lbs. the square
inch, so that it wiil he.perceived this engine is
capable of creating any’ power required, by
increasing or dtmiitisliing the pressure of
steam, from 1 to 54 pound pressure the square
tncli ;and if pertnitted to revolve 50 times the
ttiittiite, with 50 lb. pressure of steam, it will
produce, as nt_ay\be easily calculated, 40 horse
power. Say 500 lb. 80 feet high, 60 times
the iuiniite, to_ be 45 horse power, according
to the Englishicalctilaltioti, of§’.0,000 lbs. one
foot high in each minute a- horse power.--
Tlte diameter ofihe wheel mustbe increased,
if it is desirable to carry the steam at extreme
high prcssiui'e, two incltes for each pound pres-
sure. .

The Boiler, in which the anthracite coal is
used to greatadvantage, to make steattt for
this engiite,is 7 feet high, with a heittisplieri-
caltop and fotir feet diameter, standing up-
right; it consutttes from 4 to 500 lbs. of coal
in 12 hours, and invetitedlby the same person.

Eulogies..——D. F. Robinson 8:. C0- and
Norton .$L Russell, ofthis city, have in press.
attd will soon publish, a selection of the best
ofihe Eiilogies pronotinco ti in ltonour of the
deceased ./fltiams and ./ejwrson. The utility
and value of this work cannot be qnestioited,
and probably no volutne has ever issued frotn
the American press which concetttrated in as
many pages so great a variety ofialent, and
on a tmre irtteresting subject. As this edi-
tiott is probably the only one that will be pub-
lished, and the I1l1lf1b8l’,Ol' copies limited, it
would be Well for those who desire to proctire
‘he “Wk, to forward their orders to the pub-

'llSllel'Sl111ll1edi8lel)'.

That it will be a rare and valuable book,
stich an one as should be placed in the hands

‘ofevery Atneri’can Citizen, no one can doubt.’

The edition that was published of those
Eiilogies that were called forth in various parts
of the country on the death of Washington,
have becontc rare, and we do ttot know that
one could he now obtained in any ntarket.—-
Tlre present work, to say the least, would be
as valuable, and we imagine that every one
possessing _s:ifi'ici'e, t patriotism, would do well
to a vail ltimselfoftliis opportunity, of procur-
ing the work. ’

General Jackson lately declared, in reply '

to a certain address, that the battle ofNew-
Orleans gave peace to the natiott. This is
evidently a tnistake: the battle of New»Or—
leans certainly reflected great honor on those
who were insirtitttentttl in gaining it, and to.
Getteral Jackson who directed the operations
of the army which won that glorious victorv.
But it will be recollected that the Treaty of
peace was signed at Ghent before the battle
ofNew Orlezttts took place; and that battle
and that victory could l10[‘ct?I'lall1l_y have been
the cause that moved the British 2_0Verl'1l'11P.l‘ll..,
through their envoys to negotiate a peace.\
After the treaty was signed, we well retttent.
bet hearing that one ofthe British envoys said
to tltose ofihe United States, “Gentlemen,
you have got a good bargain, for N Orleans
is in our possession ;” or ivords to tli,tt effect ;
supposing, no doubly that the expedition that
they were itiformeti would be sent against it,
had been sent, and had sticceerled. The pas-
sihility of its capture was, however, disputpd
by Mr. Clay, wlto knew the spirit_with which
it would he defended. But the story ofihe
battle ofN. Orleans havlttg then been fought.
and the result known, is entirely foreign from
the fact, and is an anachronism, which a re.
ference to dates will correct.

Wlien- Aaron Burr was in his zenith, he
happened to be travellittg sornewh_ere' in the.
western parts ofNew York ; and stoppingiotie
day at a tavern. he saw what he took to be a
line of engraving ofuncominon vigour. He
spokeof it to the landlord; and was not a
little amazed when tlte latter told him it was
adrawing tnade with a pen, by a stupid boy
of his—-an apprentice to the black-smith’s
business, ofwhom he feared that he should
never be able to make any thing. . Burr sent
for the boy and was so pleased with him, tho’
he tried to obtain hiin—-but the master stis.
pected some secret value in his apprentice and
would itot part with him, at last on any terms.
“ Put rt shirt in your pocket,” said Col, Burr)
in pa.~siug the boy, “ come to ‘Iew York,
when you can get achance, and ask for Aaron
Bttrr.—lie will take care ofyou.”

Sometime had passed. when Col. Btirr had
forgotten the incident, when one morning as
he was sitting at breakfast, in came a strange
looking boy, and as he approached plucked
out a bttndle and gave it to him. The Col
onel was not a little amused to find it a shirt.
Here began the acqtiaintance, and here the
eminence ofVanderlytt: aitd heaven so or-
dered it, that \vhen‘Col. Burr, the Julius Cae-
sar of our eotintry, was in the wane, Vander-
lyn who had just left‘Paris, warm with favor,
and rich with all that makes life comfortable,
encountered hint itt his desolation——-and in his
turn miiiistered to the necessities of his bene-
factor.—Boslon Slat. '

It appeared that he was walking in the street

and as continually persisted itt his vttlgatity

was a tall dandy niarching down Broadway,
in a very stately step, to throw himself on

Springs. A brace of dashing girls met him
undertieatli one of these low awnings. In his
gallantry to give them the inside of the walk
he knocked his hat off, and dowti pltitnped

Good cider can be made any where,of good
fruit, by the following method: lVheu your
apples are well ground, wet your straw with
tliejuice instead of water ; ptit sortie straw in
acask next your receiving tiih,with ablanket
on it, to filtrate or strain it ; then put it itito ti
good clear strong cask imtttediately ; stiffer it
to ltave as little air as possible, toprevettt fer-
tuentaiiott. lVltcn your cask is full, bung it
up tight, and remove it to your cellar, not to
be disturbed f.)ronc motttli at least. This cider
will reiaiti its sweetness for years, and be as
clear as tieedful; it will be fit for bottliugiiu
four weeks. It should not be removed in the
cask it was put up in,but racked into another.
if there be any who doubt this tnodc, let them
try one cask after the above method. The
rorcgoiiig is certified frotn experience.
