Patent Spring Riding Saddles.-We
have recently viewed several of these i'm
proved Saddles g. the mandatory Of
Messrs. Mixer & Brewer, in this town, the
former of whom is the inventor, and we
10 not hesitate to speak of them in terms
OF unqualified appreciation. The i'm
provement is in the saddle-tree.; the wood
composing the trout and the rear part OF
the saddle tree is connected by plate, or
rib of steel, of about three feet (its ORR
ginal lengthy but SO folded as to afford
four springs combined in one, on each side,
which supply the place occupied by
wooden side.bars in the common saddle.
The step of the horse gently depresses the
centre of the saddle, and the action of the
spring again restores it, SO that the rider
is free from that violent agitation, which in
hard trotting horse is peculiarly painful.
So advantageous are these saddles 10
this respect, that Mr.. Roulstone observes
10 his certificate, &C that an invalid may
ride them with as much ease as sitting on
a couch" They are not liable to break
by the rolling Of the horse on the ground,
as the pressure upon the extremities only
acts upon springs, throwing up the centre.
They are much easier to the horse, and
certainly not SO liable to injure bis back !;
au advantage which every one will know
how to appreciate who has ever expert
enced that provoking affection, a gated
jade, upon long journey.

&c On the Sd of March, in lat. 80, N.

and rain, was struck with lightning, or a
large ball of fire bursting between the
main and mizzen masts. All hands being
on deck taking 10 sail, fourteen out of fif
teen men were knocked down, one man
killed, and myself and four men much
hurt and burnt. The only man that es-
capped the shock was fortunately at the
wheel; and what is very surprising, there
is not the least injury or mark on the ship. y

SOUTH AMERICA

The affairs of South America wear AT
this time most favorable aspect. The
cause of the Independents is rapidly
Fastening to the fruition of their highest
hopes. 1t appears by London paper,
that Lord Cochrane arrived at VaIparai-
so on the 9th December, and would i'm
mediately proceed TO take command Of the
Chill squadron, consisting Of one 10 gun
ship, and two SOS, with proportionate
number OF frigates, briggs, &c. in all a.
mounting to thirteen sail, besides gun
boats. This naval force is destined to es.
cort, and cooperate with the expedition
which Gen. San Martin is to command in
an attack on Peru, for which every pre-
paration has been made. 1t was expected
that the Vice-Roy would make his usual
stand, within the walls of Lima, city
built of light wooden and mud houses, ia
consequence of the frequency of earth
quakes; and for the object 10 view, a
large quantity of Congreve rockets, had
been procured, together with men dexter
GUS and experienced in their manage
ment. The navigation from Chill to the
point OF Decentralization on the Peruvian
coast, is no more than week, the cur.
rent and winds being always fair.
We also learn by an arrival at Boston
from Sauta Martha, that official accounts
had been received of Gen. M'Gregor hav-
ing landed little to Windward of Porto
BeIlo, with IL or 1900 troops from a feet
of six sail, last from Aux Cages. He
had been expected at Santa Martha, and
the town was under arms, all the troops
being called out. Columbian.

aniable women. But you may be dazIieo
lby that admiration, which yet reJoices
Iyour hearts.
| should be glad that you had 40 easy
dignity 10 your behaviour at pubic pa
Ices, but not that confident ease, tna1 uli-
abashed countenance, which seems 70 SCI
tie company at defiance.
| Wit is the most dangerous talent you
can possess. 1t must be guarded with
discretion and good nature, otherwise II
will create you many enemies. Wit is SO
flattering TO vanity, that they who possess
! it become intoxicated and lose all SELF
command.
Let me now recommend to your atteh-
ton, that elegance, which is not so much
quality of itself, as the high polish OF
the other. II is what diffuses an ineffa-
BILE grace over every look, every motion.
every sentence you utter. II gives that
charm to beauty, without which it gene
rally fails to please. II is partly per-
sonal quality, 10 which respect 1t is the
gift Of nature; but l speak Of it princi-
palIy as quality Of the mind. 10 a
word. it is the perfection of taste in life
and manners; every virtue and every ex-
cellence, in their most graceful and proPe
forms.
You may perhaps think want to throw
every spark Of nature out Of your com
position, aud TO make you entirely srtifi-
cial. Far from it, wish you to poses
the most perfect simplicity of heart aud
manners. think you may possess dig
atty without pride, affsbility without
meanness, and simple elegance withon'
affectation. Milton had my idea, when
he says Of Eve,
Grace was in all her steps, heay'n in her eye,
In every gesture dignity and love.
