sPEcIFICK GRAVITY.

The nations Of antiquity were unac-
quainted with any method of ascer.aining
the specihck gravity OF bodies. A sings.
lar event was the cause of its being dis
covered by Archimedes, 900 years before
the christian ara. Having reason to tR-
lieve that an unprncipled Goldsmith had
greatly debased the golden crown Of HE
70 IL. king ofSyracuse, he was anxious TO
ascertain The tact; but was perplexed by
not knowing how to effect it.
However, one day, while bathing, the
difference in the weight of bis own BODY,
when in the water and when out of it,
gave him the idea that be might adopt
thu. method for discovering the specifick
gravity of the Kings crown; and il is re-
lated of him that he was so rejoiced at the
discovery, that be lesped from the bath in
eYstacy and ran about the streets OF SYRIA
cuse, crying, lhavs found a.! IhGDe found

every youth may 6nd avocations suited TO
his taste, and even in bis pleasures, will
be at no loss to select amusements which
