TIM PRECIOUS KETAIIL
!
The adaptation and appropriation of the
various Metals to the uses of commerceand I
. ~ ,
the arts, dates back to the earliest verioa OI 1
the history of man. Tubal Cain, the sOu of:
Latnech,, and. grandson of Methuselah,' was'
the first who constructed articles ot, use,! and I
ornament from brass and iron. - He lielohged I
to the eighth generation from Adam,( arid!
probablywas born when our first parent was;
abOut eight hundred years old, and at least a
thousand' years before the flood. ! And al- I
though we do not read of. gold or silver tieing!
in iise till, the time of - Abraham, we may Infer i
from the' manner in which• the parcha'se ofl
the ground by that patriarch from Ephron,
the;Hittite;-which was, paid for in silver,' and I
the golden ear-rings=-and-_bracelets given by I
Abraham's l'i.ervant to Relieceiyarespokini of,
that' they - were then, and probably longliefure, I
used in the - coitalruction :: of both useful l and'
orainental 'articles, - and- - 'itati Medium o ex- I
change in commerce. They liiiiitinuedi
to be used in both capacities ever since, both
by civilized and barbarous nations.
There is no historical or ttraditionary ac
count of the sources from whence the anci ents'
pro Cared the,precious metals, sufficiently pre
vise to enable us to identify their locality.--!
It is probable, from the. proximity Of the land
of Canaan .to the African coast, that a Part,
at least, Of the supply wail obtained (romp the
mountains and streams of that continent.—
In the time of Solomon, who appears to have
greatly extended the commerce of the Jews,
gold becomes° plentiful as to be used in. 'pro
lusion in the decoration' pd . the temple; and
we are informed, that it!' was brocifit from
Ophir. This was the name of one of diet'
of Jocktan, who was 4' great-grandsot
Shen; and we may conclude that the p
took its name from thence; but where 0
was situated is not certainly known.
,` It e
ably lay east of Canaan; if we may ju
from the circumstances that, "apes. And
cocks were imported . .with gold." P
,
abounds with all these, as well as •With:
Mods stones,. and had manufactures of I
linen and stuffs (probably silks) with w
Solomon supplied -himself, both for: the
vice of the temple and for domestic use.
In later ages the supply'of gold and s''
Tor Europe, was• chiefly obtained from
mines of Spain, which, in the time of the
man ascendency, and, indeed, up to the
od of the discovery of America, were very ;
ductive. , The quantity, however, vies
parativeN limited, • although adequate to
wants of the Commerce Of the times. 1804

was,then on a,very different footing from 4
now prevails. In rural, districts almost ev
one was his own manufacturer, in whole o
part. The women spun, arid-many - *eve, t
own', clothes, and their tools and machin
were of the rudest and most inexpensive
seription. 1 o'4 the other hand, a large
portion of.trade was conducted by barter
account of the scarcity of money; whilst
prices of the necessaries Of life were in
portion toy that scarcity. The following
of fare of a civic feast in London, given,by
Waxchandlers Company in 1484, abOnt ft
years preVions to the conquest of Mexico,F
afford the; reader some idea of the tiipensi

' HOW TO, BE HEALTHY.
f
tnere is but one way to preserve the health,
and that is to live moderately, take proper ex
orcise, and be in the fre.h air as much as pos
sible. The man who is alWays shut lip in a
cloie roam, whether the apartment be a min
ister's study, a lawyer's, office, a professor's
taboratOry, or a merchant's gailight store, is
dervinr , nature, and must, sooner or later, pay
the 'penalty. If
•avocation renders such
conhnenient - necessary during a portion of the
year, he)can avoid a preniature break down
of the cdnstitution only by taking exercise du
ring the; long vacations of the summer cad
'winter atonths. The waste of stamina must
be restored by full draughts of mountain and
sea air, by the pursuit of the sportsman, by
travel, or other similar means. Everjr :man
who has '.felt the recuperative effects of a month
or two of relaxation, knOws from experience
liow genial its influence of spirits , - how it al
moit recreates him so to - speak. Between
the lad Brought up to physical exercise, in the
invigorating open air, and one kept etmtinu
ally at sf:In?ol or the factory, there is an abyss .
of difference, which becomes more percepti
ble everji year, as manhood approaches--the
one extianding into stalwart, full-che.sted
health, While the other is never more than a
half-contoleted mart.
The a vantages of exercise are as great to
females also. All that we haire said : about
preserving health in the man, is Cl 3 true to the
oppositesex. But this is not the whole. The
tbundatibn of beauty in woman is exercise
and fresh air. No - cosmetics are equal to
these The famous Diana of Poictiers, who
main tiled her lovelines until she was nearly
sixty, 'Died this, extraordinary result, in, her,

and tier exercise is the saddle. English la
diei"of rank are celebrated,, the :world over,
I for t4iritplendid persons and brilliant coin
plekion4, and they are proverbial for their at

c,onatinti: ill health, Which prevail °among
American wives l and datighters generally, are
to be attributed almost entirely,to their iseden

• BURKE AND IIL&CAUL&Y.
Burke was a natural. Macatilay is an arti
ficial man. Burke was as original as one of
the sources of the Nile '
• Macaulay is a tank
or reservoir, brimful of waters which have
come from other fountains. Burke's imagi
nation was the strong wing of t his strong in
tellect, and to think and to soar. were in gen
eral with him the same ;_ Macauliy's fancy is
1 I no more native to him than wits the wing of
the stripling, cherub assumed by Satan, the
hero of the "Paradise Lost," although, like it,
it is of many "a colored plume 'sprinkled with
I gold." Macaulay's intellect is clear, vigorous,
and logical ; but Burke's was inventive and
synthetie. Burke seems always repressing
his boundless knowledge ; Macaulay is osten
tatious in the display of his. Of Hapaelayta
tiain of thought you can, alwiiya . predict the
end from the beginning; Burke'sts unexpect
ed and changeful. Macaulay'sprincipal pow
ers are two—enormous memory and pictorial
power Burke's are also two-=subtle, grasp
mg, interpenetrating intellect , and imagina
-1 tion. Burke is the man of genius ; Macaulay
the elabOrate artist. Burke is the creature of
impulses and intuitions—impetuote3; fervid,
often imprudent, and violent; Macaulay nev
er commits himsels even by si comma, and
seems, if he has impulses ' to have dipped
them in snow, and, if he has intuitions, to
have weighed them in scales before they are
produced to his teadeis. Burke has turned
away from philosophic speculation to practi
cal matters—from choice, not necessity; Ma
-1 caulay from necessity, not choice—it is an
element too rare for his wing.: Burke, as he
says of Reynolds, descends , upon all Subjects
from above; . Macaulay labors up to his loftier
I themes from below. I3urke's digressions are
those of :uncontrollable power, wantoning in
its strength; Macaulay's are those of deliber
ate purpose and elaborate effort, to relieve
and make his by-ways increase the intereA of
his highways. Burke's most memorable tfrogs
are strong simple sentences of i wisdom or epi
thets, each carrying a questiod Omits paint or
burning coals from his flaming geniud; Ma-,
I caulay s are chiefly happy illustrations, or ver
bal antitheses, or clever alliterations. Ma
caulay often seems, and we believe is, sincere,
I but he is never in- earnest ; Burke, on all
higher question,. becomes a "'taming one"—
earnest to the brink of frenzy. Macaulay is i
a utilitarian - of a rather low type; Burke s,
at least, the bust of an - idealist.: We defy any
one to tell whether MacaulaV f/e a Christian
or no ; Burke's. High Churcliism is the lofty
buskin in which his. fancy loves to tread the
:neighborhood of the altar,'While before.it his
heart kneels in lowly reverence; Macaulay's
writings often cloy the mind or his reader—
you are full to repletion ; from: Burke's you
rise unsatisfied, as from a crumb of ambrosia,
or a sip of nectar. „Macaulay'S literary en
thusiasm I has'-'n'ow a fur and formal air—it
seems an old cloak of college • daye worn
threadbare; Burke's has about it a fresh and
glorious gloss—it is the ever-renewed skin of
his spirit: • Macaulay lies snugly and sweetly
in the *fold of a party ; Burke is ever and
anon bursting it to fragments; Macaulay's
moral indignation is too labored: and antithet
ical to be very profound; Burke's, makes his
heart paliitete, his hand clench, and his face
kindle like,that of Muses as be came down
the mount. Burke is the prophet; Macaulay
the ; groWn and well-furnished :school-boy.—
Burke, ditring his life-lime, was traduced, mis
represented or neglected, as no British man
of his order ever was before or since; ,'Macau
lay has been the spoiled child of a too early
and a toio l easy.success. As they have reaped
they have sown. • Macatility has written bril
liant, 'popular, and useful works, pottsessing
every quality except original genius, ptofound
insight,. or the highest speciesl of historical
truth ; Bnrke, working in an unthankful par
liamentary field, has vet dropped front his
overflowing hand little - living germs of politi
cal, moral, literary, pictorial, and .philosophic
wisdom, which are striking root doinwards,
and bearing fruit upwards, thioughout the
civilized World. Macaulay's works hitherto
consist or severatontavo volumes; but "Lib
erated America," "India set free from Ty
rants," and "Infidel' France Repelled," are
the three atlas folios which we owe to the pen
and the tOngne:of-Edmutidßurke.—Oftfillan.
AN EccErrate Divisr.--Soaie years ago,
Lorenzo Dow—whose eccentricities are a
matter of history—in the course!of preaching
in a Southern city, attacked, with severity,
the character of a person who had just before ;
died, alleging that his death was caused by
his vices: The relations of the deceased man
were indignant, and,- commencing a suit
against the eccentric Lorenzo, le was con•
victed and'mulete'd in considerable damages.
The folloWing Sunday after the trial, he
renzo) commenced his sermon as follows :
"These was, we learn from the Testament,
o a
certain rich man who lived, I t4ink, at ,lern
sidero and his name was' Dives .; He was clad
in robes of purple and fine linen', and he fared
Bumptiously. every day. That is he lived
high, or might be called dissipated.—
Now theie was also, 'think, in ;Jerusalem, a
certain bggar named Lazarus, who asked to
be fed onlY with the crumbs that fell 'from
Dives' table. He lay down at the gate of the
palace, but the rich man would not feed him,
on the contrary he set dogs on ',hint. So the '
poor
beggar died,,and then his serrowsended;
for 'tie was carried right up- into Abraham's
boriom: But, my brethren, you Will ask what
beaimirof Dives? Well, dear goals, rill, after
a while he died—drunk; I will,not, however,
say so positively, for I don't, knoll , but he has'
some relations among thom stio'diow /tear me,

her age; she looks as chiirming as when the
rose of youth first bloomed on her cheek.—
