winter to the frosts which penetrate
deeply in loose earth, and sometimes
destroy the vitality of the roots.
Many farmers choose to transplant
trees as early as possible after the frost
is out of the ground, and some choose a
wet day, or a time when the soil is full
of water, supposing the roots are more
likely to take hold of the earth at this
time than when the soil is more dry

in this latitude seldom begin to search

To Dvshbob WiHUlHeTOB,
Nawauaon, 13th January, 1738.
Dear Dushrod, You will be surprised, iierhspa,
at receiving a letter from me ; but if the end is an
swered for which it is written, I shall not think my
time misspent Your father, who seems to enter
tain a very favorablo opinion of your prudence,
and I hope yon merit it, in one or two of hia lettera
to me he c peaks of the difficulty he is under to make
you remittances. Whether this arises from the scan
tiness of hia funds or the eilensivenese of your de
mands, ia mutter of conjecture with me. 1 hope il
ia not the latter ; because common prudence, and ev
ery other consideration, which ought to have weight
in a reflecting mind, ars opposed to your rr.juiring
more thsujt bis convenience and a regard to hia oilier
children will enable him to pay ; and beeauae he
holds up no idoa in the totter which would support
me in the conclusion. Yet when I tske a view of the
inexperience of youth and the temptations of cities;
and the distresses to which Virginia gentlemen are
driven by an accumulation of taxea and the want of
maiket, I am almost iaclincj to ascribe it in part
to both. Therefore as a friend I give you the fol
lowing advice. Let the object which carried you te
Philadelphia, be always before your eyes. Remem
ber it ie not the mote atudy of tke law, but become
eminent iu the profession of it, that ie to yield hon
or and profit. The first waa your choice; let the
second be your ambition. Dissipation ia incompat
ible with both ; the company in which you will im
prove most will bo the least expensive to you ; yet
I am not auch a stoic c to suppose thst you will, or
think it right that you should always be in compa
ny with Senators and Fhilorophere ; but ef theju
vinile kind let me advise you to I choice. Il is ea
sy lo make acquaintances, but very difficult to shake
them off, howevsr irksome and unprofitable they
are found, after we hive once committed ourselves
to them. The indiscretion which, very often, they
involuntarily lead out into, prove equally distress
ing and disgraceful.
Be courteous to all but intimate with few ; and
let those few be well tried before yon give them
your confidence. True friendship ia a plant of slow
growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks
of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation
Let your heart feel for the afflictions and distress

A. Kr Kallroad.
There has been exhibiting at the Merchant's,"
Sanderson's Hotel, for some days past, a model of
a railroad, which peeresses many claims on public
notice, Ths ubject of the road is to overcome the
diiTicultiee attendant upon crossing mountains, by
means of railroad la the present invention, ths
manner in which thia, heretofore deemed insuper
able, olatacla is overcens, is at once aimple and
original. The inventor, Mr. Von Smith, a native
of Kuesia, haa erected a large model, which ia open
to the inspection of the public, and which will ful
ly illustrate advantages proposed to be derivej...
The road ia made in a series of inclineJ planes, at
the foot of each of which ia a common well, filled
with water having a stationary frame which, rest
ing in the bottom of the well, reaches to the height or
the next inclined plane. At the bottom of tha
wall, attached to the frame, ia an air tight hot, hav
ing insetted ia the top of it a stop ceck, from Uie
handle of which e wire passes to the surface of the
water, and is there eonntclsj with a email lever,
the top of which is nearly on a level with the road
track. Inside this static as ry frame, there is another
detachment frame, moving easily up and down.
wihtn the limits of ths stationary frame, and to the
bs'.t-aa (fit I attached another box, open on th
bottom, end having inserted in the top estop cock
ia e eimilar manner, end with a similar connection,
ilh the surface aa the other. 1'hie moveable frame
forms part of the railroad, end it ia by it that the car
ia lifted up Ie the next bight. The mains used tot
raise the car ia air, which by a very aimple process.
is loreee in Urge quantities t ths bottom nf the:
well, and in ths stationer 1 jx. The cu when if j
rune on to the moveable f.amee, atrike the two U
vera, above mentioned, in s-ich a manner aa to np a
the lower, and shut the upper atop cock. The air
from the lower box, escapes into the upper box, a q J
when auffid-nt air is collected, (which occurs tna.
very abort time,) the moveable frame rises gradvl illy
and ateadily until it reaches the next height, wl jen,
by a neat and unfailing contrivance, the dete ched
part of the track on the frame ia thiowa from 1 1 hor-
isontal into a alightly inclined position, and th a cae,
again starts off without any aid. The car, trj ru n
ning off, atrikes the lovers again, so as to cloie, i i
lower, anJ open ths uppor stop-cock, the airiurm cdi .
ately escaping, the frame ainka again to ita fo rmer
place. The form of the ear ued on. "this ro J j

Mr. Von Smith. It ia formed so. that but. two.
wheels are necessary, they being placed in th e osn-
tre of the car, and the eeats on ea:h side, belo m the.
level of the track, the Toad being elevated abov.t
eight feet from the ground. Ttiia form of car hs as
been adopted aa being best suited to the nature of
the road to be made, end alo from the fact, ths 1 it
is an utter impossibility for the car to be got ofT the
trcack. Those who may be desirous of viewing IhLs
truly original invention, can do eo by calling at jLa
