The PHILosoPHER's STONE. The following
curious circumstances occurred a little time
since at Tottenham: A person who had mis-
spent his time in search of the philosophers
stone, having left his laboratory open, his ser.
want maid took the opportunity to attempt dis
covering the object Of his masters study. Her
attention was engaged by the furnace, in which
were several substances. Her curiosity Undue
ed her to stir and try to bring out the materials
with very large spoon, which was always used
at dinner To her confusion and surprize it
melted and fell to the bottom Terrified by the
circumstance, she few from the room. Her
master soon returned and, on extnguishing his
chemical fire, was delighted to find a mass of
pure silver III his furnace. Now he imagined
he was successful in the great object of his past
life and that he should realize fortune by con-
verting the baser into pure metal; and, on the
strength of this idea, he invited large party to
dine with him the next day, for the purpose of
communicating his good fortune. He did not
sleep all that night for Joy. The next day he
saw his table decked with the most costly vi
ands His friends congratulated him on every
side. In the midst of this triumph he missed
the large silver spoon, and asked where it was
The servant now confessed she had been induc-
ed to try to extract the materials from the fur
mace with it, and that it had melted from her
hand. The poor philosopher turned pale-the
harmony of the day was disturbed-his friends
retreated-and he still lies in disconsolate
state-EngLish paper.
THOMSON. The author of the Castle of
Incidence" paid homage in that admirable poem
to the master passion Of his own easy nature
He has been seen standing at peach tree with
both his hands in his pockets, eating the fruit
as it grew. Another instance of his extreme
laziness is given that being discovered in bed
at & late hour in the day, when he was asked
why he did not rise, his answer was, " Why
troth mon, see nae motive for rising
Christopher Clavius, whose talents in Geom-
etry raised him to the character of second
Euclid, entered college when young. After be
had been tried in various branches of learning,
and was on the point of being dismissed as
hopeless blockhead, one of the preceptors
thought he would make trial of him in geom-
etry, which hit his genius SO happily, that he
afterwards became one of the greatest mathe-
maticians of the age.

1T has now been known for years, that
n the .Il6tOn Corn Plaster, affords immediate
relief, and effects a certain cure for Corns By
its application according to accompanying drec-
TONS the Corn is sOftened, atenuated, and dra wn
ont by the roots, without the least pain, or any of
the trouble and danger attending the hazardous
and Intellectual practice of extracting the corn by
mere cutting. The following instances-from
many others OF similar character-sufliciently
attest to the superior efficacy of the Albion Corn
Plaster:
Mr.. Farrar of Boston, was a number of years
distressed by very painful Corn, had applied
every thing recommended without effect, and was
rendered a perfect cripple. On applying this
Plaster he perfectly cured of his corn and freed
from his lameness. A gentleman of Greenfield
was years afflicted with very painful Corn, and
was cured by one box, after every other plaster
had been tried TO no purpose. MIR. Cutler of Bos.
ton. was cured of a troublesome Corn BY one box.

their feet, do certify, that have used the Albion
Corn Plaster with complete success. Before
had used one box it completely cured Corn
which had troubled me for many years. | make

that painful complaint

From the Boston Recorder.
THE BAPTISM.

She stood up in the meekness of a heart
Resting on God, and held her fair young child
Upon her bosom, with its gentle eyes
Folded in sleep, as if its soul were gone
To whisper the baptismal VOW in Heaven.
The prayer went up devoutly, and the lips
OF the good man glowed fervently with faith,
That it would be, even as he had prayed;
And the sweet child be gathered to the fold
OF Jesus. AS the holy words went on,
Her lips moved silently, and tears, fast tears,
Stole from beneath her lashes, and upon
The forehead of her beautiful child, lay soft
With the baptismal water. Then | thought
That, to the eye of God, that mothers tears
Would be deeper covenant, which sin,
And the temptations of the world, aud death,
Would leave unkroken, and that she would
know,
In the clear light of heaven, how very strong
The prayer which press'd them from her heart
had been
In leading its young spirit up to God. Roy.

ROBERT MoNrGoMERY.

The foreign periodicals are teeming with
praises of a poem, entitled 4" The 0mRipresence
of Deitv," by young man of genius named
Robert Montgomery. Like his namesake
James, his productions are deeply imbued with
the spirit of piety, and are greatly calculated
TO elevate the character Of the Christian Re-
ligion. The many extracts we have seen from
this poem tend to corroborate the opinions of
the critics, and the following little episode may
be considered beautiful specimen:
THE MANIAC BOY.
Down yon romantic dale, where hamlets few
Arrest the summer pilgrims pensive view;
The village wonder, and the widows Joy,
Dwells the poor, mindless, pale-faced, maniac
boy
He lives, and breathes, and rolls his vacant eve,
To greet the glowing fances of the sky;
But on his cheek unmeaning shades Of wo
Reveal the withered thoughts that sleep below
A soulless thing, spirit of the woods,
He loves to commune with the fields and floods
Sometimes along the woodlands winding glade,
He starts and smiles upon his pallid shade;
Or scolds with idiot threat the roaming wind,
But rebel music to the ruin'd mind
Or on the shell-strewn beach, delighted strays,
Playing his fingers in the noon tide rays
And when the sea- waves swell their hollow roar,
He counts the pillows plunging to the shore;
And oft beneath the gllmmor OF the moon,
He chants some wild and melancholy tune;
Till DER his soft ming features seems to play
A shadowy CLEAN of minds reluctant sway.
Thus, like living dream, apart from men,
From morn to eve he haunts the wood anC
glen;
But round him-near him--wheresoe'e r he rove
A guardian angel tracks him from above
No harm from flood or fen shall e'er destroy
The may wand rings of the maniac boy.
