ing news, he approached his daughter, and
gently patting her on the cheek, sail,
"Come, come, Helen, dear, cheer up :
Charles, our own dear Charles, has re
turned, is in the city, and will be here it ,
half an hour—cheer up my dear:" and h.
began to pace the fluor.
"See hers," he continued, as a splendin
equipage, with servants in livery, dim'',
up to the door, from which a young gen
tleman alighted, "h eis Mr. Thompsoi:
too ; how glad I all be to inbroduce
them to one anuth ."
"I don't see w you should be," said
his wife, "althou , perhaps, you Charles,
as you call him, may Le as rich now as Mr.
Thompson. You know he left word that
he was going to seek his fortune," and
she pronounced the last word with a
sneer.
"And he hopes he has found it, mad •
am!" exclaimed Charles, who entered
just at that moment,"thanks be to an all
wise Providence that directed me to my
father's house. It is Charles that stand;
before you !"
Wall a shriek of delight, Helen threw
herself int is outstretchedrms, and
wept tea , joy upon his b oom; while
the old stood motionless, but his
eyes we et and his lips quivered, tho'
not nit et.
Wien t ley had become somewhat com
posed, Charles related to them what had
occurred since he left them. 'the joy
that beamed in the swimming eyes of the
delighted girl, as she hung fondly on her
lover's arm, was only equalled by the
tenderness with which he returned her
look of 'affection. How deep was the
bliss of that moment, making amends by
its delight, for the long years of doubt and
absence. it was not long before Charles
renewed again the boyish vows he had
pledged to Helen, and the blushing girl
listened, smiling and weeping by turns.
Need it be added, that in a short time
Helen and Charles were united at the al
tar, and that even the aristocratic mother
smiled upon the union of her daughter
with the ci decant Charles Elliston.

DEATH OF PROFESSOR DAVIS. It is
with pain that we announce the death of
this esteemed gentleman, the able and ac
complished Professor of Law of the Uni
versity of Virginia. He died on ;'atur -
day morning from a wound inflicted by it
pistol shot on the Thursday night previ
sus, under the following circumstances :
Thursday night was the anniversary of a
list which occurred a few years since at
the College, and which has been regular
ly observed by some act of disobedience
to the College regulations among those
who cherish the recollection of the scene,
or who sympathise in the factious spirit
of the rioters. About nine o'clock there
was much disorder in the lawn, and es:
pecial indignity was offered the Professor
by noises near his door ; lie went out to
suppress the disturbance, and came up to
two or three individuals who were masked
He reached forward to raise the mask of
one of them, when he retraated, and the
Professor following him up received fron,
him a pistol shot which took effect—fatet
it has turned out to be, but at the time it
was not considered mortal. The ball en
tered just below the navel and is said to
have passed around the abdomen down to
the:fleshy part of the thigh,whence it war
extracted. The Professer lingered in
great agony until Saturday rtnirning about
eight o'clock, when he was relieved by
death.
Two students have been arrested and
were examined on Saturday, and the ex
amination was to have been continued
yesterday. One of them had previously
absconded, but returned and gave himself
wp.
The tragic event has robbed society (1
an ornament; and our principal Literary
Institution of a profound scholar and ju•
rist, who has done much to raise it to its
present elevated position.
The Compiler informs us that the stu-
dents of the University have had a meet,
ing, at which they passed among others,
the following resolution:
Resolved, Thnt we will use every pos
sible exertion to find out the perpetrator
of the act, that he may receive his merit
ed punishment.
A PIIENOMENON.—The Cincinnatti Le
dger of the 11th says :
Yesterday morning, as we were return
ing home from our office, about 2 o'clock,
we were suddenly startled by an explo
sion immediately over our head, similar
to a cannon. On looking up we discove
red, in the air, large fragments of fire, fly
ing in different directions—each of which
looked to us as if they were particles of a
star that had burst asunder. The moon
became black as ink, and the stars all
seemed as if they had dwindled away,
and naught could be seen but the fiery
fragments Hying about the sky. These
burnt fur a few moments, and then grad
ually died away, until they could be seen
no more. A few moments after the ex
plosion took place, the earth. shook like
an aspen, and the moon when she again
shone forth, seemed trembling from the
effects of the sock. Mat could hav e
been the cause of this wonderful occur
rence? Can any of cur great astroloiors
throw any light oil the subject?

From the Health Journal,
DEATH FROM TIGHT LACING.
I have seen and am much pleased with
our paper, and doubt not it will do much
ood. I hope for it an extensive circula
on. In one of the late numbers you call
facts, whether communicated in ele-i
Ant language or not. have recently I
, arnt one to which I gave all possible
,üblicity, and have told tt in almost every
ircle of the young in v hich I have since
bound myself'. Two weeksbsince, while
on a visit to the house of a respectable, and
long experienced physician, in one of the
southern boundary
i towns in New Hamp
shire, he gave me n substance the follow
ing account, as near as I can recollect.
He was called a week or two previous,
to visit a young female, 1 think, over 20
years of age, Who was distressingly ill of
a complaint of the lungs, laboring under
great difficulty of breathing, which his
discrimination led him at once to impute
to a long continued practice of tight lacing
—a practice which is slaying its thous
ands and ten shousands in our enlightened
land. There was, in his opinion, an ad•
hesion of the lungs to the chest, and a
consequent intimation which had pro.
ceeded to such a height that death was
inevitable. Little or nothing could be
done. The poor girl, after a few days of
acute suffering, fell a victim to--(what
shall I say! lam unwilling to wound the
feelings of her friends)—her own folly and
vanity. it could not be suicide, because
no such result was contemplated, though
the deed was done by her own hand. We
can call it by no softer name than self=
slaughter, for such even an external ex
amination of the body proved it to have
been.
The shoulder blades were found to be
literally lapped one over the other, the
false ribs had been so compressed that the
pace of only about an inch and a half re
mained between them; and so great was
the curvature of the spine which had been
tirded in by the cords of death, that after
the corpse was laid out for interment, two
pillows were put under the arch thereby
formed, while the shoulders rested on the
hoard. She was a large healthy person,
and was ignorantly led by the desire to,
please, to sacrifice her life at the shrin , !;;;
rashion, and the prevailing aaise ideto of
beauty of form, Site was said to be of
C.mtaufe disv.:;,lion, and correct moral
I!;.hits, otherwise.
any own mind was so impressed with
the recital of this story, that 1 could hard
ly forbear weeping over the folly, weak
ness, ignorance, and wickedness of my
sex. I inwardly wished for the ability to
ring this case of suffering and death in the
ears of every female in our land, until
their voluntarily assumed "straight-jack.
eta," that indicate nothing better than
mental aberration in the wearers, should
be voluntarily thrown aside.
Ingenim:s French Savind ling.—An ele
gantly dressed lady presented herself, a
few days since,at an extensive shop in the
Rue des Fusses Montmartre, at Paris, and
asked to see one of their handsome shawls.
,The was waited upon with the utmost
toliteness, and after making a most care
ful choice of one of the most elegant arti
:les in the magasin, requested the clerk
who waited upon her to carry the shawl
ro the house of her husband, M. Desire
'node, the eminent dentist in the Palais
Royal. The lady then withdrew, with a
most gracious salutation. The young
man shortly afterwards proceeded to the
dentist's house, and was shown into an
antechamber, when he was told M. Desi
rabode was engaged. Presently the line
lady made her appearance: "Ali, you
are there, sir," she said, "I was just going
out, despairing of your arrival. Give me
the shawl, that I may show it to my bus.
band; lie will come and pay you fur it
presently."
The lady took the shawl, re-entering
the adjoining apartment, of which she
left the door open, and the clerk heard
her make use of these words:—"Here is
the young man about whom I spoke to
you. May I beg that you will not keep
hon long, fur he wants to return to Isis
shop?" 'flie lady then made her appear.
ance at the door, pointed the clerk to M
Desirabode with her linger, and took her
departure with a familiar nod of the head
to the dentist. "I am at your service,
sir," said Desirabude, and arranging his
instruments, he put some casual ques.
tions to the young man. Presently the
conversation turned upon dental surgery,
and, in answer to a question from Desi
rabode, the young elan confessed that he
sometimes sabered from a tooth on the
left side. The dentist approached, and
more rapidly than thought, removed at
once both tooth and twinge.
The clerk was thundetitruck, and the
dentist said, with a smile,—"Your sister
informed me where the troublesome tooth
lay." It will readily be believed that
these words increased, instead of dimini.
the clerk's astonishment. A lung
and provoking explanation ensued, from
which it transpired that the seductive
stranger had waited upon M. Desirabode,
and entreated him to remove by surprise
au unsound tooth from her brother's left
jaw, she having brought him to the den
list's house under the pretext of showing
'it shawl to his wife. The pour clerk re
turned to his shop in a state of the utmost
confusion, minus both shawl and money,
and also with a tooth less in his head.—

after the ingenious culprit, but hitherto'
without success.
SOM ETIIING OF THE MARVEL.
LOUS.
Considerable excitement, as we learn
from the Philadelphia Gazette, has pre
vailed in the neighborhood of Reckless
and Church streets, in the district of
Southwark, for two or three days past,
on account of a young lady having been
in a state of unconciousncss, since Fri
day night, as report says, lying in a trance
from that time until Monday morning.
During Sunday the house was visited by
hundreds of persons curious to witness a
scene of such a novel character. It seems
the young lady was formerly a professor
of religion, and from some cause or other
fell from that state of mind which an en
joyment of religion affords. Recently her
heart became seriously affected, and the
whole week, prior to the Friday evening
alluded to, she attended church, and ear , ..
neatly gave herself up to devotional du
ties, in the hope of regaining her forme'
peaceful state of mind.
On Friday evening she professed to have
found comfort, and front that time until
Monday morning continued to lie in a
state of stupor, but occasionally making
some exclamation indicative of a commu
nion with unearthly objects. The case
has excited much curious conversation,
• and various and curious speculations in
the minds of those who have been eye and
ear witnesses to the affair.
MODE OF MAKING SHEET LEAD
IN CHINA.
The Chineese, in manufacturing the thin
sheet lead in which their teas are imported
into this country, conduct their operation
in an exceeding simple manner. The la •
mine is not rolled. as, from their extreme
thinness, might be supposed ; not even I
hammered, as the appearance of the sur
face might indicate, but actually cast at
once into the state in which we see them.
Two men are employed; one of them seat
ed on the floor, with a large flat stone stan
ding at his side; his fellow workman stands
beside him with a erasable containing the
melted lend; and having poured a
ent quantity on the the 0 4 2.;er tdrs

lon ituied lead, presses it out into a flat
and thin plate which he instantly removes
from the stone. A second quantity of lead
• is poured out in a similar manner, and a l
similar plate formed—the process being
carried on with singular rapidity. Thei
rough edges of the plate are then cut off,
. and they are afterwards soldered together
tor use. Mr. Waddle, a Scotch gentle.
man who witnessed the operation in China
applied a similar , method with great success

galvanic purposes.

There is no period so much fraught
with danger to a party as that following
a signal triumph. Single individuals. as
well as parties and whole states, can bear
adversity better than an excess of good

the latter is apt to relax them. This

HINTS TO RAILWAY TRAVEL
LEES.
1. If you lave comfort and safety, nev-1
er travel by night.
2. Always arrive at the depot at least
twenty minutes before the time. You
can then choose your seat, and make at
leisure any other arrangements as may be
necessary.
S OeCopy the seat near the centre of'
the centre division of the centre car of the
train. The motion is less in that situa-,
tion ; and you cannot thrust your bead or
arms out of the window. l3e•itles, if thel
car is capsized, or otherwise demolished,
you will not be so liable to be cut by the
glass—and it is not quite certain that you
will be "literally smashed to pieces."
4. Never go by the first morning train,.
when there is a second. If there is any
obstruction—or it any emb,znkment has
been washed away in the night, the first
train will discover it, perhaps to its sor
row.
5. Never quit your seat, or car, when
making a temporar) stop, unless it is ab
solutely necessary —for the engineer waits
for no man—and a person seldom looks
so awkward, or feels so foolish, as when
chasint , a railroad train.
6. Never get in or out of the cars while
the train is in motion, however slow.
7. Neyer smoke, or chew tobacco, or
sleep in the cars.
8. At the first notice you have of the
train's running on the track, or coming
'into a collision with another train of cars,
throw yourself suddenly in a heap, resem
bling as much as possible a sphere—cur.
tAil your legs and arms, instead of exten
dim; them, as is too often the case, and
await with patience and philosophy the
reAult. It is, however often the case that
the effect treads so closely on the cause,
ghat no time is left tgassume an attitude,
'therefore it may be advisable to be pre
'pared for the worst the whole time, altho'
the losture may be somewhat inconveui,

the pine knots up the Allegheny , were
sauntering up town, and had their wild .
unpractised care arrested by the sounds'
of a piano. They could not make it out;
it was neither jewshurp nor fiddle, yet it
was "first rate"—and being overcome
with curiosity, they all entered (three of
them) through an open door. In a hand
somely furnished room, one of our Whig
girls was playing and singing a Tippeca
noe song. The mountain buys hoped no
offence, but wanted to her play "on that
thing." "0, yes," said our young belle,
with great humor and archness, "but 1
can play nothing but Harrison tunes.
Are you for Harrison?" "Yes, all of us,"
said they. And away she went—rattling

Harrison songs. The lads appeared de.

think he would vote for Mr. Van Buren?"
said one to the others. "What is Jim?"
said our heroine. He is a comrade of
ours, and a t loco foco democrat, but I
think if h e heard that song, it would
turn him." "Go fetch him," said she,
no way daunted, and the three started off

C 11 APTER L
I. In the reign of Andrew the King,
p his anger was kindled against the curr
ency of the country, and he waged war
against it, and in iris wrath he slew the
monster with the sword,. and he sought to
slay commerce also, and manufacturers
were in the same peril.
2. And he misapplied the public trees
urers without law or authority, taking on
himself the responsibility.
3. These were among the principal
acts of his reign.
4. When the King was old and strick
en in years, he called unto him his cabi•
net, and his counsellors, and his courtiers
and he said unto them, draw near to me
and hear.
.1. Behold the time of •my departure
is nigh; I must go the way of all the earth
and - Martin my best beloved shall reign
in my stead.
6. Ile is pledged to follow in in foot
steps—under his reign the public treasu •
ry will be filled to overflowing, and gold
will be wore abundant than the stones in
the streets.
7. Ile will put every enemy under
his feet, even the miglay Soninolts will!
be as grasshoppers before him.
8. Ile will establish peace within his
borders, and lie will cause the earth to
yield its fourfold increase, even as I have
done before him.
9. Then they went into the temple
and crowned Martin King of the realm,
and Francis the scavenger anointed his
head with the oil of adulation, and 1, , •. e.y
all shouted, King Martin live #.7, rever , 1
10. Then . Andrew ;
saa.„ - otly charged
Martin " nr.. ..1 . in - ,' kinmdom, saving,
ebet i u
my son, to walk in all my
and to fellow all my counsels, and
thj reign will be glorious, thy end will be
peace, and unborn generations will cele
brate thy praise.
11. 'And Andrew died 4 being old
and full of years, and he was gathered
unto his fathers.
12. When Martin commenced his
reign, he prosecuted the war against the
currency which Jindrew his lather had
waged, and he reduced the public treusu•
►•} to a state !of bankruptcy, and he caus.
ed distress and ruin throughout the realm.
IS. And the merchants in the city of
Manhattan chose a deputation even to
the number of fifty men, to represent
their grievances to the King, and to im
plore relief.
- 14. And the merchants Journeyed to
the capitol, even unto the royal palace;
and when they were admitted therein,
they prostrated themselves at the foot
stool of Majesty, and saluted him—Peace
be unto thee, 0 King, we are thy loyal
subjects.
15. We have come to r yresent the
distress of our 'cloyed city, and to pray
that the King, in the plenitude of his mer
cy and tender kindness, would grant re
lief.
16. But the King hearkened not to
the supplication of the merchants, neith
er would he grant relief, for his heart was
hardened.
17. Then the merchants arose and
said, be it known unto thee, 0 King, that
for this,exercise of tyranny and oppres
sion, the sceptre will be rent from thy
hand. and it will be g iven to another.
18. And they de parted and returned
to their city and reported the answer of
the King.
19. at that time the spirit of the King
I was exalted within him, and in his imagi•
nation he was lifted up, and being arrayed
in royal apparel, he said unto his court,
behold 1 have become great in the earth,
what monument shall 1 rear to perpetu•
ate my name?
O. And they counselled the King
and said unto him, cause an image to be
mada whose height shall reach unto the
heavens, and it will perpetuate thy own
great name beyond the remotest bounds
of time.
21. And their counsel pleased the
King, and he directed that an image
should be wade, the height whereot should
be six score cubits and a span.
22. And he employed his cunning ar
tificers under Silas the master-builder to
perform the work, and when the public
treasury was exhausted, they were paid
by the King's credit.
23. In the fourth year of the King's
reign, on the fourth day of the seventh
month, the image was finisketl, and the
royal seal was affixed to it, and on the
same day the King summoned his cabinet
and his counsellors; and his nobles to the
dedication of it, and when the ceremo
nies were ended, they all bowed down
and worshipped the image •vhich Martin
the King had set up.
'24. And they called the name of the
image SUBTREASURY.
2 . 6. Then the King made a royal de
cree, and sent heralds to proclaim it to all
people within the realm, that at what
time they should hear the sound of the cor
onet, harp, flute, Mt, fiddle, drum, trum
pet, jewsharp, and all kind of music,,
they should tall down and worship the'
image which Martin the King had set up.
26. And if any one should be found
who would not obey the decree, in the
same day he should be hewn in pieces,t
and his house should be made a dunghill.
27. But Henry and Daniel proclaim
ed to the people to pli.ce no confidence in
the image, fur mischief was concealed
'within it.
28. In these days there arose a Propll7.l
et in the Province of Maaanchussetta, who
was called "honebt John."
29. The same was mighty in word
and in deed, and he was a strict discer
ner of the intrigues of the palace, and al-
so of the true interests of the people.
SO. And he said unto the laboring
men, if ye fall down anti worship the im
age which the King hath sot up, it will
bring you to a morsel of bread, and it will
clothe your families.in rags.
31. And the laboring men harkened
to the words of "honest John.":
32. On the day appotated, the King
sent forth his musicians with coronets.
harps, flutes, fifes„ fiddles, drums, trum
pets, jewsharps, conch shells, and ram's
horns, blowing, which was the signal to
tall down and worship the image.
30. But the people answered the
King, we are not careful to obey thy de
cree, neither will we fall down and wor
ship the image thou hast set up.
34. Then the King waxed exceedingly
wroth, and his anger burned within hiss
and the visage of his countenance was
changed, and ho stamped upon the rick
carpet with his feet, but he could not exe
cute his decree
35. On the birth day :of the King, he
made a great feast in the royal palace to
his Lords, and to his Counsellors, and to
his Judges, and to his high Captains, an.i
to foreign Ambassadors; and when they
had feasted many hours nn golden plates,
and drank wine from golden goblets; the
Icing described on the plastering of the
Hall over against him, a hand writing in
an unknown language, and he was much
moved.
36. Then the K.;ng called his magi-:
ciao and his
soetli-savers, and his diyi.
nei s,
4 " - ' those who had familiar spirits,
re'..d the hand writing, and to declare
the interpretation thereof,
37, --
But they could not read the wri
ting, nor tell the King the interpretation
58. At length came Amon the sorcer
er, for he was [live discerning than the
rest, and he read the hand writing on
the wall with a rueful countenance, and
he sighed within, and he said 0 King, the
I , vliting contains mourning and lementa
ltion.
39. And the Kiag was greatly aston
ished, and his knees smote one against
the other, and he said unto Amos the
sorcerer, declare to me the interpreta
tion; hide nothing from me.
40. Then Amos the sorcerer answer.
ed and said unto the King, the interpret*
tion of the writing is this—Thy reign as
•+)sort,
41. An evil spirit troubled Martin.
42. And the people throughout the
realm assembled at their ballot boxes, in
numbers evvn liken unto great armies go
ing up to battle, and they chose William
for their King— yea, "he came like a
whirlwind."
43. Then was fulfilled that which was
foretold by the merchants of Manhattan,
