MILITARY.

We mentioned, last week. the celebration
81 the anniversary of the Worcester Light
infantry, and noticed the appearance here of
the Shrewsbury Rife Corps and the .Milbury
Laght Infantry. The former is a well disci-
pinned company, and attracted much atten-
ton by their soldierly appearance, their neat
uniform, their sklful maneuvres. and their
close tirngs. We have no similar corps in
this vicinity with which to compare it but
1T could not, we think, suffer in the compar-
lson with any other in the Division.
With corps of Light Infantry, however. we
are all familiar and it is doubted whether
there is in the Commonwealth company SUI
periour, in every essential particular. to the
'Hiaoury Leght Infantry. Their extraordinary
discipline; skill, and prompthess, was the sub
Ject OF universal and unqualified praise
The town of Millbury has reason to be proud
OF such corps of such men-a corps provid-
ed too, as we understand, with euery thing
necessary for actual service.
Inc day Of the parade was remarkably fine.

On the use Of chilled Cast Iron for Punches
and other Tools
1t lis we'll known, that in making holes
in red-hot iron articles, such for instance
as wheeLtire, horse-shoes, &c. the hard
ened and tempered steel punches be-
come softened from the effect of the
heat; and, changing their shape, must
be repaired from time TO time.
Mr.. Peter Keir, engineer of st. Pan
eras, several years since having occa-
sion to make many nail-holes in the
wheel-tire of artillery carriages, and
horse-shoes; and having experienced
the above Inconvenience in very great
degree, luckily bethought himself Of
substituting punches made Of chilled
cast iron, for those of steel, and which
he found fully to answer the purpose, as
they constantly retained their origina
hardness, notwithstanding they very fire.
quently became red hot in using.
As, however, chilled cast iron is mo-
sufficiently tough TO bear bending with
out breaking, he found it necessary tc
strengthen his punches, by surrounding
and enclosing their stems in cast iron
holes, made of shapes corresponding
with the stems, in properly shaped sup
ports, and having their points only stand
ing out sufficient length for use.

The British, to destroy our infant
manufacturing establishments, have pos
sessed themselves of the peculiar spe-
cies of American goods that have be-
come fashionable amongst US, and have
sent over cargoes of them, so closely
initiating the genuine stuff, that it is diff
cult to tell the counterfeit. This is,
however, found out by the weaver, and
to his cost in course of time.
Those goods are sold at auction for
what they will bring and the American
manufacturer is obliged to keep his own
good article on hand, which would wear
twice as long as the imported for the
lattsr beng made of Surat cotton, is
thickened with -four. to give it the APP
pearance AID substance of the durable
produce Of our looms. To make the
deception complete, the names of vari-
Gus American manufacturers, and of
their establishments, are stamped upon
the limitations and to facilitate the con-
tinuance of this mean conduct, the Board
Of Trade Of England have passed an
order admitting, duty free, all pieces that
are imported into England as patterns to
copy. Bath Gazette.

PROPOSALS

IN issuing proposals for work ofthe c',araes
4 ter before us, it may be pertinent To OBJ,
serve, that the ostensbc object OF the proposr
ed publication, is for the amusement and in
struction OF the female mind. That the novel.
" Of my design, will attract the attention OF
some, while it elicits the censure of others, arc
considerations which have been fully aatcipat-
ed AS far as my observation extends (snd
believe truth will warrant the assertion,) there
is no work, of a similar character, eNt.nt in
New-E England; and, with u single exception,
but one in the United States. From this and
various other considerations, after mature re-
Election on the subject, have been inelucrdto
prosecute the design, long held in contempla-
ton. ~
I Sensible of the peculiar situation, in which
am about to stand in relation to the public, as
an Editress, without arrogating to myself any
unjust claims of superiority, | shall relynpon
the merit Of my work, to shield me against the
attacks of irony and sarcasm; and on the Gle
mency and protection of the female world,
should stand convicted Of alteration.
The work will be devoted 10 moral, ref.
gious, and scientific SUBJECTS miscellaneous
selections, and tales from the most moral and
approved classic authors; and biographical
sketches of the most eminent females in this,
and other countries. Original and selected
poetry will not be omitted; and every third
number, will contain one of the most popsllay
airs, or songs, set to the Piano-forte.
AS the intention is to rouse young ladies'
from vacant and insipid life, to one of uscful-
ness and ludable exertion; to recall them
from visionary pursuits, and the too CONSTANT
perusal Of novels and romances. to- solid read
ing and reflection; to turn them from the ab.
surdties of fashion, to the simplicity of nature
ard the dignity of virtue; as these are the mo-
stives, which preponderate in the scale OF re-
Election, in attempting the circulation Of The
work, it is sincerely to be hoped, that should
it deserve no t1me, it may not be branded WITH
inviduous or unnierited censure.

THE DRUNKEN HUSBAND.

Poor ELLEN married ANDREW HALL,
Who dWelt beside the moor,
Where Wonder rose-tree shades the wall,
And woodbines grace the door.
Who does not know how blest, how lov'd
Were her mild laughing eyes,
By every youth but Andrew proy'd
Unworthy of his prize.
In tipping was his whole delight,
Each sign post barr'd his way,
He spent in muddy ale at night
The wages ofthe day.
Tho Ellen still had charms, was young,
And he in manhood's prime,
She sat beside her cradle, sung,
And sighed away her time.
One cold bleak night, the stars were hid,
In vain she wish'd him home;
The children cried half cheer'd, half child,
"Oh when willfather come"
Till Caleb, nine years old, npsprung,
And kick'd his stool aside,
The younger Mary round him chung,
"i'llg go, and you shall guide"
The children knew each inch ofground,
Yet Ellen had her fears
Light from the lantern glimmer'd round,
And show'd her falling tears.

Return the same way home;
Perhaps you'll meet him, give him light;

Away they went, as close and true
As lovers in the shade,
AMI Caleb swung his fathers staff
At every step he made.
The noisy mill clack ratified on,
They saw the water flow,
And leap in silvery foam along
