VETERAN DRUNKARDs. GA feic drunk
ards truly live to old age. You will now
and then find grey headed tippler, vet
eTan bacchanallan. And the solitary in
stance when it does occur, is triumphantly
referred to by hard drinkers, as a sufficient
REPUTATION of all that may be said in oppo-
sition to their tavorte indulgence. But
I" the dead tell no tales" and theethousands
that have fallen out by the way, and gone
to early and unhonered graves (while the
harder few have survived, are not taken
into the account.
The human constitution is as infinitely
diversified in different individuals, as the
llneaments of the human face; and in no
instance, perhaps, is this diversity more
strikingly exemplifyed, than in the power
we possess of resisting morbid poisons.-
The workmen in the tin mines of Cornwall,
England, constantly breathe an atmosphere
loaded with the fumes of arsenic; and to
those who remain constantly exposed to
ats Influence, this poisonous mineral is
usually fatal In the course of 20 months or
= years. None but wretches that the gall
lows has spared, can be induced to enter
these abodes of death. Yet, strange as it
may seem, there are occasionally found in
dividuals who resist the action of arsenic,
and live on to old age, through one gener-
alton Of miners after another-regarded
by the inhabitants of the neighborhood
with kind of Superstitious horror, as if
they bore about them charmed life.
We ought, in like manner, to regard the
aged drunkard as a natural curiosity-a
kind of t,saS nature and instead of ex-
cusing ourselves by his example, for pursu-
ing the same course, we ought to inquire
for the boon companions who embarked
with him Oh the voyage of life. We shall
find that they have been shipwrecked by
thousands, and that, like the messenger of
Job, he atone has escaped to tell the tale"

TEEACITY OF VEGETABLE EXISTENCE.
About three years ago, a jargonel pear tree
belonging to Mr.. Tattersall, Of Stretford,
was cut down and made into posts, one of
which was placed by the roadside. After
the first year the post began to branch out,
and at the present moment it is in full
bloom, and likely to bear fruit. The post
was made somewhat square, and only a
small portion Of the bark was left upon it.

arts, the one are about to mention, invented by
our respected townsman, Mr.. Richard P. Morgan,
stands pre-emnent. 1t has been fairly tested BY
actual experiment.
This invention is an improved Railway Carriage,
which reduces friction, that one Horse may draw
with perfect ease, upon level road, so tons. Mr..
Morgan has proved this fact both upon small
model, and upon wagon capable Of carrying the
usual weight Of common wagon, and it any advan-
tage was had, it was in favour Of the latter. We
believe in all the experiments made by Mr.. Tred.
god with the pull ey and weight, he never succeeded
in moving more than $50 lbs. with one pound. One
pound attached to this carriage, and suspended over
pully, moved quickly seues hundred pounds :.
1t will be exhibited in Boston. Friction is obyl-
ated at the axes by means Of four additional wheels,
which operate as rollers on the ground axle---the
friction wheels move once round, only, in going q
quarter of mile.
We have seen this invention in operation, and
fully believe that it will place Rail Roads on ground
where Canals can no longer come in competition
with them.
We conceive this to be one of the most important
! improvements ever invented and we think it is no
too much to say, will eventually supply the place
Steam on leuel roads in all countries as the ex
pense Of this Railway Carriage is, comparatively
very small.

PUBLIC MEETING.

At very numerous and respectable meeting OF
ae citizens Of the State of Delaware, friendly to
Manufactures and Agriculture convened by public
Elotice. at the Town Hall. in Wilmington, 9th Mo.
9th, Kensey Johns, Esq. was called to the chair,
and Joseph g. Rowland was appointed secretary.
The following resolutions were then adopted
ResDLuel, That the protection of American man
ufactures, by iudicious tariff is in the opinion OF
this meeting the and obvious policy OF this nation;
that the truth u this proposition is every day demon
2trated By the ourishing condition OF every portion
Of our country where manufacturing establishments
are in successful progress, condition not confined
10 the manufacturer himself, but participated in by
its influence, and especially by the Farmer-thus
exhibiting the intimate union subsisting between the
two great interests of agriculture and manufactures;
and that while we cordially approve OF the policy,
we entertain no doubt of the constitutional power
of congress to iegislate upon subject which was
dee,nen peculiar object of their care by Washing
tan. Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe, and upon
which Congress has exercised the right OF ieg'sia
zion from the origin Of the government to the pre-
sent day.
Rcsoiuef That we regard the coctvlne contained
IN the proceedings recently promulgated by the lie
slslaturc of Virginia. denying to Congress any pow
rr whatever to protect domestic manufactures, a
fllacious and visionary in the extreme--as contfar
to the best interests and happiness OF the nauoli'
il is repugnant to the true intention and correct eS
position Of the instrument it assumes to interpret
contradcted by the concurrng opinion of the father
of the Constitution itself, of Washington, Hamilton
and Madison, and by the uniform practice OF ever
administration which has acted under that Constitl
ton.
f2esolved, That we approve of the bill which pas
ell the House of Representatives during the last SCI
sion of Congress, entitled AN An act for the alte
alton of the acts imposing duties on IMPORTS W
regard it as measure peculiarly calculated to pr
mote the interests of the agricuturast and II
manufacturer, by the protection it secured to I'll
manufacturer of coarse woollens and to the produs
of the raw material.
1t protected the manufacturer, not by material
increasing the duty, but by fixing the value in SUI
manner as to defeat the frauds and evasions,

Ience ofits desigus'
IfMorgap's book be correct, then is Masonry en-
titled to the veneration of the world, for it was
founded on religion has been handed down to pos
terity by the wsest and best of the world; and
| there TO be found among its members the ablest
the most pious Divines.
The whole OF the Morgan affair, is mantled by a
deep dark and oblivious veil, and if we commits
serate the hapless fate Of the apostate Mason, we
have only to lament that his own imprudence and
nfdelity sealed his doom
From the best and most creditable accounts that
have reached us relative to Morgan, we think that
there cannot be doubt that he is assassnated, and
that he fell at the hands Of band of anatical, en-.
thusiastic masons, acting upon their own RESPONSE
biiiy and not in the least instsatcd or warranted
in their deeds by the Lodge. 1t is not impossible,
however, that he is still living; if he is we hope in
Heaven that he may speedily be produced, that the
fraternity may no longer bear the odiUm, which his
reported murder has cast upon them.
We confess that we feel some interest in the
affair, although we have not the honor Of being
Masons. But we have since our childhood up, been
taught to veuerste The order we have witness
ed some Of the many acts of benevoIence, and
christian philanthropy per6rmed by them, and
we shall sincerely depreca'e any event, that shall
seem calculated to sully The lusre OF their well
armed reuutatiun If Norgan has been murdered
by band Of misguided masons, the oiium Of their
villainy should not fall generally upon all the Ma
soma of the Earth.

should ever he held dear and sacred to Americans ;
we should by thus celebrating an event that gave

and teach them to worship the memory OF the faith
