Visit to _Mount Vesuvius. I shall omit the description of other excursions, and describe my visit at-midnight to the summit of Mount Vesuvius. 'Stepping into one of the numer ous liaeres on the stand, at six o'clock the last evening I was at... Naples, I .was on my WaY akiiii for Resina, at tSt , foot-of the 4onntain, five miles from the city. The tide along the shores, through the prettsuburl.k., with the. setting sun on the wa ters of t bay. the approach of darkness, and the c developin tit of the red stream of lava clown the mountain was a rare sight. In an hour I was seat ed on, a pony. attended by amide, also mounted, and hating a large torch. These guides and ani mals are at the station always ready, and there is a tariff of prices for theta. They are wader the di:. section of the police, who maintain a strict -watch along the route half way up the ascent. The .route to the hetinitage is a circuitous one, and re. queer] nearly dime hours. From thence a beauti. ful view is had of the .13ay and City .of Naples, and the lava stream and belching of cinders, red-hut istones, and lava every few minutes from the cra ter. The str?am, which a few days since,lid se veral branches, now merged together, was about-a mile long and three or four rods, wide, and lost its self in a - level space on the mountain side, where it collected and cooled. The crater, which is a re gular cone, on the top of the mountain, was sprin kled with myriads of red-hot pieces from the belch lugs, which short up from the crater, in nearly a pe'rpendicular kite, to a areat height, then falling upon the edge of the crater and rolling down the rides. • Having :ascended a few minutes above the her mitage, at the termination of the path, and as far as it is practicable fora horse to go, our animals were tired, and then came the most difficult ascent I ever made: The whole mountain, rising steep abovehs fora nide, was a mass of- volcanic mat ter, thrown up ty . different eruptions, and compos t ed of heilsof rocks, lava, ark cinders,. and beside and betwOn these beds noliCißg bet ashes, which is of..a coarse black sandy substance. It is impos -bible to wend over the rugged beds of rocks, and equalW .4o to go up over the sand, where you can not' kali) your-foothold. The way is to go along the edge of lava, keeping you'r foot-hold in the sand as -much s _possible, by holding on to the rocky glare; burthen we slipped at every step, and lost neatly half we gained. Toiling in this• manner, and stumbling in the'uncertain light, stopping every few moments to recruit our exhausted strength and recever breath, .we arrived, at elet•c?r o'clock, at the summit. lhave forgot to mention that there ire two attendants at the beginning of the ascent to assist, by ropes,-the ,elltausted traveller; but, I re ' !used their ()treys, not wishing to be outdone by a Ilesting a few moments, and wetting -oar dry throats, we stalled - for the loot of the crater, andi . gcoping our way over and among the im mense masses of lava, in. less than hall an hour we were within the reach of the red pieces of lava mhielt rolled down the crater. Hero we tarried to s l ew the showers above, which feerned as though they would descend on our heads. It was a fear ful sight,. and at every eruption the rumbling and concussion within the crater added much to the scene. in retooling we passed over beds of lava yet quite hot, which had been ejected from the et.a. ter only four days previous. Harting arrived at the brink, the descent was over abed of sand and ash. es, unincumbered with a single stone ; and, it was, noveLand rapid One ; fur, what with step and slide ; every snide was equal to six feet, and they were so rapid, from the impetus forward, that it waive ealy matter to keep - our equilibrium.

Why did she love hits Carious Ng! be Still— bi human love the growth of human Kill ? To her be alight be gentleness—n Late in the year 1826 I was lying in the harbor of Charleston, advertised to sail for Havana.' The day before clearing a handsome young Spaniard came on board, and introduced himself as Senor de Soto, asked me in English, when I was to sail, and if I could take another passenger. "I sail to-morrow and can accommodate two or more passengers," I replied. " I think Captain," Said he after a pause, "that I will take passage with you. I have been lately in command of a Florida wrecker, and by one lucky chance have made doubloons enough to stand one winter's frolic in the liavanas. It is not often that an honest wrecker meets with a windfall," he ad ded with a laugh. And pray what was it, Signor?" I asked: "Oh, rare good fortune," he returned promptly, I was out about six weeks ago, when one morn ing after a dreadful storm. I discovered a ship on the reef, in a most dangerous situation. Her deck was crowded with men, and I saw at a glance that the vessel could not hold together four hours. I ran under her stem and made a bargain with the poor wrecker to take them off." '' Made a bargain!" I exclaimed with horror I: made a bargain to save the lireS of your fellow men!" "To be sure, why not he returned with a reckless laugh, "I was a pooNwrecker. It was all in, the way of tr e acle. The vessel was from New York, and I saved the live,s, of her crew and pas sengers at a round price a' head. So much money in my pocket disgusted me with the wrecker's life: I abandoned it, and hare been enpying myself be tween New Orleans and this since. Now go to Havana, ask my father's blessing, and see what ruck I shall haiir at the gambling table during the • winter." • -• All this was said in a Manlier, which not less than the word?, betokened the heartlessness of my new acquaintance, who, as J subse, i quently learned, was the sollof a rich meiehant of Havana, by whom he had been discarded Young De Soto paid his passage, and the next day we sailed, I had six other passengers, two of whom, a wealthy Cuba lady and her daughter, were return ing from - a summer's visit to the States. T)re daughter was one of the most beautiful creoles I ever saw. She conlirnot have been sixteen years of age. Her figure wasslight and graceful, the tea times of her.conntenance were regular and syste matical. while her eyes told eloquently of a gentle, confiding and affectionate soul. De Soto an i her mother had met before, and ere we had been twen. ty-four lion7s at sea, the young lady and myself ?were walking the quarter deck., chattering away in Spanish with delightful farhiliarity, as thought they, had been acquainted -with each other for years.— Before we reached llavana they were lovers; be fore I sailed from that port they were inaEried.— Young De Soto had made his peace with his fath er, by feigning repentance, and the two families had in consultation decided that it would be best to let the young people have their way. I visited . them several times and like all young married folks they seemed and were really happy. For the gen tle young wife's sake I prayed that her influence might prove strong enough to subdue the bold, reck less, venturous spirit of her husband. Nine ) ears after the period alluded to, thirteen Spaniards were • tried at Boston, for piracy in rob- , ' bing the brigMexicar, from Salem, confining the crew below, and firing the • vessel. Happily they were rescued by a ra.ssing ship; the piratei %rime apprehended on the coast of Africa six months after by an English cruiser, and sent to Boston, where eight of them were coneenined. Only six howev er. suffered _ilea h on The scaffold. The seventh committed suicide in prison, the eighth, the mate of the vessel, was respited. I had read the ac count of the trial of the pirates, but thesubject exci ted but little of my attention. . In the month of June, 1836, I was passing along Chestnut street, Philadelphia, when hearing my Hanle called, I turned and sap gazing at me a lady dressed in the deepest mourning.' Her face was. ghastly pale, and the skin seemed to be drawn tightly over the bones—flesh there seemed to be BIM " Captain --- 1 " she said in broken English and with a trembling • oice--" Captain yon do not remember me! I am Mrs. De Soto, your pas senger from Charleston for Havana, ten years or so 7 ago In an instant the whole truth flashed upon my , mind. The name of the respited pirate was De ISoto, the bold wrecker, her husband. I entered I into conversation with her, and learned from her own lips the effort to save her husband's life. She had travelled from N. 'Orleans to, Bbston in search of theipersoluf whom her husband bad, saved, jar money, from death on the Florida -zeds. By ad. inrtising in the papers, she found many of these persons, and exciting their sympathies in her be. half, they certified „that they owed their lives to her husband's brattsexy--carefully • concealing the Bin Abut before he threw them - the rope, 'he had been itrerinsed a large amount of money for every man he rescued. With these certificates she basted* to "Washington, and asked of Gen. Jackson the life of her husband. heart of the stern old ihieftiari was moved by' the wife's prayer, and his gladly availed himself of the only giound for intelnsitioa —the sqpposed services rendered by De Soto to American- citizens in distress—and the pirate re. ceived a pardliii. Two years ago I was in Havana, and met De Soto in a coffee house. He was in command of a steamboat running between that'port and Matan zas. I asked for his wife. "She's been dead these three years," he rep . ed, with indifference, as he picked up a'-eue and challenged an acquaintance to a game of billiards.

Adventures with a Panther The following particulars of an encounter with, one of these animals are &Om the pen of a gentle man who witnessed it:—l was at Jaffna, at the northern extremity of the Island of Ceylon, in the beginning of The year 1819, when, one - Morning 'my servant called me an hour-er two ,before my usual time, with it Master, muster I people sent for master's dogs—tiger in the town !" Now, my dogs chanced to be some very degenerate specimens of a fine species,, called the Poligar dog, which I should designate as a sort of wiry-haired grey hound, without scent. I kept them to hunt jackals; but tigers are very different things. By the way,. there are no real tigers in Ceylon; but leopards and panthers are always called so, and by ourselves as well as -by the natives. This turned out to be a panther. My gun chanced not to be put together; and, while my servant was doing it, the collector and two medical- men, who bad recently arrived, in consequence of the cholera merlins having just then reached Ceylon from the Continent, came to my door, the former armed with a fowling-piece, and the two latter with remarkably blunt hog-spears. They insisted upon setting off, without waiting for my gun—a proceeding not much to my taste. The tiger (1 Must continue to call him so) had taken re fuge in a hut the roof of which, like those of Cey lon hots in general, spread to the ground like an umbrella; the only aperture into it was a small -door, about four feet high. The collector wanted to get the tiger out at once. I begged him to wait for my gm ; but no—the fowling-piece (loaded [ with ball, of course) and the two hog-spears, were quite •enough. I got a hedge-stake, and awaited my fate, from very shame. At this moment, to my great delight, there arrived from the fort an Eng lish officer, two artillery-men, and a Malay capt.: and a pretty figure we should have cut without them, as the- event will show. I was now quite ready to attack, and my gun came a minute after-. wards. The whole scene which follows took plat within an enclosure, about twenty Teet square, form ed, on three sides, by a strong fence of palinyra leaves, and on the fourth by the hut. At the door ' of this, the two artillery-men planted themselves;; and the Malay captain got at the top, to frighten the tiger out,- by worrying it—an easy operation, as the hut!: there are covered with -cocoa-nut leaves.— Ore of the artillery-men wanted to go in to the ti ger, but we would not suffer it. At last the beast sprang, This man received him on his bayonet, which he thrust apparently down his throat, firing his piece at the same moment. The bayonet broke off short, leaving less than three inches on the mus ket ; the rest remained in the animal, but was in visible to as. The shot probably went through his cheek, For it certainly did not seriously injure him, as he instantly ree upon his legs, with a loud roar, and placed his paws upon the soldier's breast. At this moment the animal appeared to me to about reach the centre of the man's face ; but I had sem=ce ly time to observe this, when the tiger, stooping his head, seized the soldier's arm in his mouth, turned him half round staggering., threw him over on his back, and fell upon hint. Our dread now was, that, if we fired upon the tiger, we might kill the man. For a moment there was a pantie, when his com rade attacked the beast exactly in the same manner as the gallant fellow himself had done. jle struck his bayonet into his head ; the tiger rose at him ; he fired,' and this time the ball tea: effect ; and in the bead. The animalstaggered back Wards, and l it we all poured in our fi . lo still kicked and writhed ; when the eentl an with -the hog-spears advanced, and fixed him, w ile he was finished by some natives beating him o the dead with hedge stakes. The brave artillery- an was, after all, but slightly hurt ;' he claimed the kin, which was very cheerfully given to him. T re was, however, a cry among the natives, that th head should 6e cut ofl ; it was ; and, in so doing, the knife came di rectly across the bayonet. The animal measured little less than four feet, from the root of the tail to the myzzle. There was no tradition of a tiger bay ing been in Jaffna before, Indeed, this must have either come a distauce of almost twenty miles, or have swam across an arm of the sea nearly two in . breadth ; for Jaffnastands on a peninsula, on which there is no jungle ofrany magnitude.”—[From Po pular Natural History, recently published in Leaden.

Its purity and eloquence are- ansurpasss by any pro ductions, ancient pr modem. Its material for the exercise of deep theueit, for cultivating the taste, for invigorating the imagination, and for eliciting the best feelings of •the soul, is rich and exhaust less. Its weighty doctrines, the hopes it enkindles, the fears it allays, alike prove its divine original. No human composition is so exquisite as always to please. Itsstoresof wisdom are quickly exhaust ed; the eye soon peiveives the end of created per. fection but the beauties of the Bible me none the less lovely, though the charm of novelty may have passed away. He who can mad the inspired narration of Mo ses with diminished interest, can have no beauty in his own soul. Cold must be 'that heart which does not kindle at his eloquence, and melt at his pathos! Moses's account of the Creation is uniqne. It is abrupt, simple, sublime. The volume of destiny is suddenly thrown open ; time is proclaimed ; enistiim arises; and a new race of intelligences appear on the scene. The Alm4;hty voice is ad dressed to Chaos: "Confusion hears it, and wild Cproar stands ruled." The waters subside ; the verdant landscape is seen ; songs burst from every grove and stars, bright rolling, silent beaming, are burled forth from the Almighty's band. . The style of Moses as an historian is the best model, both in'the vigorous and the sublime, the pleasing and the tender. Ills history is clothed with the grace of eloquence, the charms of poetry, and the fascination of fiction. The Bible is replete with poetry. The Hebrew poets rouse, *arm, and transport the mind, instrains the sweetest and boldest that bard ever sung—in hers the loftiest that imagination ever iliztated. ry extant ego: Is that which comes to us from the rapt patriarch of ldumea, and the inspired prophets of Salem ; from the school of Bethel and Jericho. The Bible is the prototype, the unrivalled model and inspirer of all that is elevated in poetry. It has been a fiauntain, from which later poets have drawn their richest thoughts, their boldest figurer, their grandest imagery. The Psalms of David are an elegant specimen of poetic literature. The character of their diction and expression is vivid, the thoughts animated, pa.ssion• ate. They communicate truths, which philosophy could never investigate, in a style which uniuspir ed poetry can never equal. The Hebre4 literature itself contains nothing more lovely. Among the prophetic writers, Isaiah stands unri valled. His language possesses surprising beau ties. his triumphal song upon the fall of the4la bylonish monarch is replete with imagery, diversi fied and sublime.. The can( option is bold, !the characters are introduced with wonderful art. No thing is wanting to defend its claims to perfect beauty. In every excellence of composition, it is unequalled by any specimen of Greek or Roman porurY.

But he who astonishes us by his graphic images, possesses, at the same time, the loveliness of the sweetest poet. For in vigorating the imagination, for giving energy of thought and tioldness of expression, the writings of Ezekiel are unequalled. Such is the Literature of the Scriptures. Written by its numerous authors, during the• space of fifteen hundred years, in the sands of Arabia, in'the de serts of Judah, in the rustic schools of the prophe's, in the sumptuous palaces of Babylon, in the bosom of pantheism and its sad philosophy, the Bible comes to us the olde•rt offspring of sanctified intel lect, the highest effort of genius, the effusions of truth and nature, the overflowing of genuine feel ink the utterance of undisguised sentiments.

The cotton plant was known, cultivated and ire nufactured in India many: centuries ago. Iris a plant which grows spontaneously all . over the tro pical regions. The climates so necessary to the growth and development o( thoafon plant, forbids the cultivation of wool, while the latter product flourishes in the cold regions where the cotton will not grow. The - two products are admirably suited for the clothing, of the inhabitants of the rayons in which they respectively .flcurish. The early - Egyptians do not iapPearto haveknown the value of cotton, although it is known to have existed in Egypt 550 pears before Christ fli mummy clothes are all made oflinen. Iferodottis is the first Creek writer who speaks of cetton, and this in a brief reference tot dia. The ROM - OS re. ceived the cotton manufacturesTrom India. From this country cotton was introduced - into Upper and Lower Egypt. The Moors of Spain introduced it into Europe. In the fineness and delicacy of the manufacture' of eotton, the natives of India had the supremacy for many centuries. These are to be attributed to the fineness of their climate and the delicacy of their sense of touch. Many stories are told of the wonderful texture of their ,cloths, and among them the following: A Persian Ambassador is said to have carried home to his master a cocoa-nut, which on being broken was found to contain a piece of cotton of some thirty yards in length and light as gimatner. On one occasion an Emperor remonstrated with his daughter upon the inJ.elicacy of her appearance, she being clothed in they Hindoo cotton. She re plied that the robe was wrapped nine times round her body. These tales all Igo to prove that the Ilin doos were perfect masters of the manufacture of cotton. The art of manufacture was held in high esteem, and cotton weaving stood ;it the head of the me ebanic arts. The women were all cotton spinets, and the wearing was clone in the open air. .pattni tt-a, introduced into China in the sixth century, and in the tenth century into Spain. In the thirteenth century a company was incorporated at Barcelona for the manufacture , of cotton, but it was only of a coarse kind 'called fustian. In the sixteenth century it was introduced into England by a refugee. The Aztecs or ancient Mexicans, Were acquainted with the manufacture di hotton. The progress iu the manufacture of cotton was very slow after its introduction into England. The thread waseo coarse that it could only be used for filling., the warp being of linen. The article mann factored was called calico, taking this Darnel from Calcutta in the Ewe Indies. Pte , trions to the year 1769; no mills existed in England, and the mann. facture was carried on by hand power alone. Soon after the invention of Arkicright, the most rapid progress . , was made, and the manufacture largely ly increased. In 1846 the capital invested in En gland in the cotton manufacture amounted to one hundred million pounds sterling.. To build and stock a mill in Great Britian, requires only abbot two-thirds of the sum necessary in this country. . The lecturer next proceeded to give some par ticulars of the life of Richard Arkwright, from which it appears he was born in the year 1782, in the county of Lancashire, and was brought np to the trade of a barber., About the year 1760 he quitted his trade and traveled about the country as a deal er in hair.
