It consisted of the patents and four children. The husband was in an employment which enabled him to maintain his family com fortable and lay by something as a provision for his old age. In the midst of usefulness ho was seized with a consumption, and during a protrac. ted illness, the little estate which he had acquired was chiefly expended. After his death the moth er tasked herself to support her little family.— Night after night wee she engaged in laboring with her needle for their support, the children sit. Wig by her lido endeavoring to comfort and en courage her. Her arduous exert;ons shortly bro't on the same disease which had token away her husband. The support of the family: Was thus entirely cut off: At this crisis, the oldest boy, then not over 7 years of age, went from door to door, begging for some employment, to keep the family from starvation. Those upon whom he dim; called, wete too busy to listen to the story of a child. Finally, by dint of perseverance he sum melded in obtaining a situation in the Glebe Cot. ton Mill, in Philadelphia, receiving fur services 75 cents a week; Ho succeeded in getting a younger brother into the some establishment for 50 cents per week. Their united wages—sl,2s par week —served to sustain the sick mother and the fami ly. Things went on this way fur some time—tho mother was hastening to the end of her earthly career. Nuno Interested themselves in the lite of these obscure individuals. Their neighbors wore a vicious, degraded people as poor as themselves. For a long period roasted potatoes wore their only food—and the small pieces of wood which they could Collect in the streets, their only fuel. Finally, a female who had boon a bridesmaid to the mother, heard of her distress and sought her out. Her assistance and personal services wore freely given—but alas! it was now too late: she could but smooth the pillow of death. Tho moth. or . was laid in the grave by the side of her hus• band, and the children were left orphans. Tho kind lady remained by, disposed of what little fur. nituro was loft, and obtained situations fur tho remnant of this afflicted family. Their prospects began to assume a brighter hue. At their meet. ing at the end of every year, they could say that the past:oar had been more prosperous than any before it. Finally an oponing was made for the older boy in the Christian Ministry, and that boy said Mr. Stevens, is the inditiidual who now ad. dresses you. Wo have rarely witnessed a more powerful ef. fect than the announcement of this fact produced, It was as though an electric shock had beOn sent through the whole audience. So entirely unpro. pared wore the assembly for such a termination, so completely had their sympathies been given to the suirerors, whom they had supposed were at that one who had passed through tho scenes in which their feelings bud boon so strongly unlisted, stood before them, and wuu startling in the high. ea degree. azaw,t - elrazaryoo 9 akac, 0 ag0.11 0 2)47 9 araur ziatim 4 ,A 1 /33111 (8&.12a,41,030 ---"With sweetest flowers cnrich'd, From various gardens cull'd with care."

On one sido . oftho nost, a piece of an old Bible was found, on which the following .words were distinctly visible—" Thou shult not steal." What a hypocrite! • The Law Magazine relates an anecdote ofSor gettnt Davy—a distinguished lawyer in the time of Lord Mansfield—that being CHICO called to account by his brethren on the westorn circuit, for disgracing the profession, by accopting silver of a client, ho replied—' I took silver, because I could nut get gold; but I took every sixponco the fellow had in the world—and I hopo you don't call that disgracing the profession."

The Unanimous Declaration of the Thirteen United States of aniertca. WHEN, in the course of human ovouts,it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, , itmong the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which tho laws °filature and of nature's God entitle thom,a decolkt respect to tho opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel thorn to the separation. We hold those truths to be solf.ovident;—that all men aro created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among those aro life, liberty, end the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, gov ernments are instituted among mon,deriving their I just powers from the consent of the governed;_ that I whenever any form of government becomes dos truairoo of these ends; it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute a new gov ernment, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them ehali sewn most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate, that governments long established should not bo changed for light and transient causes; and ac cordingly all experience bath shown, that man. kind aro more disposed to suffer while evils aro sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they aro accustomed. But when a long train ofabuses and usurpations, pur. suing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce thorn under absolute despotiem,it IS their right, it is their duty to throw off such govern ment, and to provide now guards'for their future security. Such has been the Patient sufferance of these colonies; and such IS now the necessity which constrains thorn to alter the former systems of govorninent. The history of the present . king of Groat Britain, is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over those states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world. Ho has refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. Ho has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediatoSand pressing importance, milers 'sus. pended in their operation, till his assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, ho has utterly neglected to attend to thorn. Ho has rofused to pass other laws for tho accommodation of large districts of people, unless those peoplo would re !impish the right of representation in the legis lature—a right inestimable to thorn, and formida ble to tyrants only. Ho has called together legislative bodies at placos unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the repository of their public records, for the solo purpose of fatiguing thorn into complianco with tie motismea. He has dissolved reptesentativo houses repeat edly, for opposing, with manly firmness, his Inva sions on the rtgh•s of tho people. Ho has refused, for a long time after such disco. haloes, to cause others to be elected; whereby the. legislative powors, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at largo, for their °mein; the stato remaining, in the mean time, exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and con. vulsions within. He has endeavored to prevent tho population of those states; for that purpose obstructing tho laws for naturalization of foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migration hither, and raising the conditions of now appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of juthico, by refusing his assont •to laws fur establishing judiciary powers. Holies made judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their otficos and the amount and payment of their salaries. Ho has erected a multitudo of now offieos, and sent hither swarms•of officors, to harass our peo ple, and oat out their substance. Ile biis kept among ds, in times ofpetice, stand.. lug armies without the consent of our legislatures. Ha has allbcied to render the military indepon. dent of, and superior to, the civil power. Helms combined with °thorn to subject 113 to a uri.Actitm ibreigo to ntir constit.itioo, find unac knowledged by our laws; giving hie assent to their aels of pretended legislation: • For quartering large bodies of armed troops among na: Fur protecting thorn, by a mock trial, from punishment for any murders which they shuuld commit on the inhabitant!' of these itolos: For cutting ofr our trodo with all parts of the world: For imposing tuxes on no without our consent: For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury: For transporting us beyond seas, to bertried for pretended offences: For abolishing the free, system of Vnglish laws in a neighboring province, establishing therein an arbitrary government, and onlarg.ng its boun. darios, so as to lender it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the B.ltmo absolute rule into those colonies: For taking away our,chartore, abolishing our post valuable laws, and altering, fundamentally, ho forms of our govornmonta: For suspending our own logislaturos, and do. daring thernsolvos invostod with power to legislate for us in all cases wliatsoevor. He has abdicated government here, by daclar. ng ua out alas protection, and waging war gainst 128. He lumplUncloreil our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and dostroyed the lives of our people. Ho is at this thno transporting largo armies of foreign mercenaries to'completo the works of - death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruel ty and porfuly",scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ago's, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation. Ho has constrained our fellow citizens, taken captive on the high seas, to boar arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands. Ho has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontlora the merciless Indian savages, whose known rule ofwarfaao is an undistingnish• ed destruction of all ages, sexes; and conditions. In overy stage of those oppressions, wo havo petitioned for redress In the toast humble terms: our repeated potitiona have bean answered only by ropoated injury. A prince, whoso character is thus marhod by every act which may clofinoct tyrant, is unfit to ho the ruler of a froo pooplo. Nor have we been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. Wo have warned thorn, from time to time, of attempts by their legislature .to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us.— Wo have reminded thorn of tho circumstances of our migration and settlement hero. Wo have ap pealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and wo have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connexions and correspondence. They too have boon deaf to tho voice of justico and of consanguinity. Wo must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity which dononncos our, separation, and hold thorn, as we hold the rest of mankind—enemies to war, in peaco friends. WE, therefore,the roprosent4itives oftho United States of America, in general congress assembled, appealing to the SupremtiJudgo of the world, for the rectitude ofour intentions, do, in the name and by the authority of the good people of these cold nios, solemnly publish and declare, that those United colonies aro, and of right ought to be, free and indopondont states; that they aro absolved from all allegianco to the British crown, and that all political connexion batmen thorn and the state ofGroat Britain is, and ought to be, totally dui. solved; and that, as fitie.iind independent state's, they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which indepondent states may ofright do. And for the support of this dec laration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, wo mutually pledge to each 'Other ou: lives, our fortunos, and our sacred honor. JOHN HANCOCK.

In the great valley between the North and South Mountains in Pennaylvania,commonly called eastern ridges, a well was dug some years since in Franklin county, and another in Cumberland county, 30 or 40 miles from the former, which led to a discovery afford ing a subject for interesting speculation.— After proceeding in each instance to the depth of about 36 feet, the bottom of these wells suddenly gave way, but fortunately when the workmen had retired; a torrent of water flowed up. A lead with fifty fathoms of line was sunk without finding the least obstruction! They remain at this time un• touched and of unknown depth! The pre sumption is, that there is a subterranean lake in that quarter, and how far it extends under the base of the vast primitive moun tains, situated between the Susquehanna and Pittsburgh, will never be ascertained, unless by some terrible convulsion of nature they should be precipitated in the tremendous abyss.
