Pacific, have received their wages, and. ac
cording to the papers Of that city, are enjoy
ing themselves after their own fashion,
They are seen dashing through the streets
10 carriages, at the rate of ten Knots and
are to be found at all the public places of
amusement, equipped in their naval costume,
such as a tarpaulin hat, Gan indispensable
head dress to son of Neptune, blue round
about jacket. and blue shirt collars. There
is perhaps no race of mankind who take the
world and its cares easier than these hardy
fellows. When at sea, their wants are pro-
yided for, and no care disturbs the tranqulli-
ty Of their feelings. "In rain and sunshine, in
calm and tempest, the same unclouded
| brow bespeaks the unruilled state ~ all
within; the watch below succeeds the watch
on deck; pleasant weather must succeed the
storm, and these are the only alterations that
occur to break the general monotony OF
their life. The hour of serving grog, until
i, arrives, affords something to wish tor;-
when it is past, they collect in messes a
round their kids and cans; and their iowly
fare IS cnioyed with a better relish, keen
or annette, and lighter heart, than often
belong to the guests at the rich mans table"
Omen, frank and candid, sailor treats
the world as though all mankind were as
honest as himself. When on shore, they
, love to recount their perils at sea. and when
again assembled on the forecastlc, they have
many hearty laugh at their adventures
2 while on shore. Money. to them, is thing
of little value, aud sailor will seldom or
ever take dollar with him when bound up
} on his tavoritc clement; he "liyes while he
: l;vcs''--the world and its cares he is free
: from; snug ship and a fan breeze is his
delight, and he does not care to what quar-
{ ter of the world he maybe bound.
n Among all the inventions which have beer
$. conceived by the ingenuity of man, for the
9 promotion OF happiness in physical or mo-
y raj point of view, there is none likely te

e as that lately invented by DR.. Chambers. o
