AMBITION
BY J Of 1:,4 W \TN INS
Shakespeare once said : " dreams, in
deed, are ambition ; for the very sub
stance of the ambitious is titterer'
shadow of a dream. Arid 1 hold ambi
tion of so airy and light a quality, that it
is but a shadow's shadow." It is said a
slave has but one master, but the ambi
tious man has as many masters as there
are persons whose aid may, contribute to
the advancement of his loortun4
The reader will accept a few thoughts
on ambition, and some of its many varic,
ties. He, who, like the Spartan Lycur.
gus, lives but for the glory, and dies for
the welfare of his country, •• fills his
space with deeds, and nor wi: It lingering
yea Ts."' He alone can claim a noble,self'-
sacrificing ambition. It was among the
haeedamonians, that Lycurgus ridicu
lously erected an image to the god Risus;

The First Paper Mill in America.
By THE UNKNOWN
When one sees a genius dissecting.
with microscopic minuteness, the log of
a fly,thc probosis of a gnat, or the struc
ture of a hair ; and another, day after
day, creeping stealthily, through the
forests to see what the little birds are
doing, and fifty other things equally im
posing to the view, cam we %cinder that
the question, rui bone 2 should start up
in the minds of I T ordinary, plodding
folks ? Yet, howevpr small the business
may appear to such, it is evident in the
end, tlutt something does come of it. So,
when one learns that a genius of another
sort ill fbrever risking his linibs and head,
exploring old rickety garrets,ru.mmaging
old oaken chests, to the grevious annoy
ance of' ancient spiders, mice's nests,
worms and what not; and is blurring
his sight decyphering old, smoky, cop
, .r-col.,red bits of piper, and torn frag
old niusty books treasuring
them up too, as carefully as a miser, or
a Third Street breker aloes a bond or a
greenback of time biggest figures, the
same every day, matter-of-fact folks with
wonder ask, what does it all amount to ?
What can emu! of it? Yet, it seems,
something does come of' it. Some, in
deed, go so far tys to say that a great
deal conies of it, if there be any value in
historical truth.
These thoughts, and others like them,
were suggested to my mind the other
night, as 1 listened to a paper read be
fore the " Ilistorieal Society of Penn
sylvania," being an Historical Sketch '
of the Rittenhouse Paper Alill,,the first
erected in Amerier4, The paper, we
were informed by thoAßecording Secre
tary was prepared in answer to a vote of
the Society at a previous meeting; and
gave ample evidence of that kind of rum
maging and mousing alluded to- above,
and which, it seems, is one of the inno
cent recreations of the antiquarian.
It has been, it, seems, matter for grave
complaint that. sundry waiters have
awarded the glory of bein; the first in
the paper-making enterprise 'in America
to one Thomas Wilcox, in or about A.D.
1114, and have made Chester creek in

mill now furnishes the paper fur the

interesting, as it was written on paper
