The Newport Spectator ascribes Ae-
rah Colburn's wonderful mathematical
powers to the fact that when his moth
or was eneienfe with him, she met with
much difficulty in preparing net for
the l"om. and was obliged to desist late
at night and retire to bed. She fell in
to disturbed slumber--in which a Wis
ion Of the web and loom were pictured
in her imagination--in her sleep shc un-
tangled the yarn, wool and warp, and
every end to its proper place and in
the meantime impaired TO her son his
wonderful powers Of calculation. In the
morning all the difficulty in fixing the
web. which existed the previous evening
had vanished. The Spectator gives
the fact upon the authority Of a I" respec.
table gcntleman"--who~ estn blishss his
doctrine by the following singular case,
for the truth Of which he pledges his re-
putation.

that thls class of men are moro abused

fore Congress. until there Is suitable
building erected for their accommoda-
ltion. government never intended TO
tar sailors twenty cents per month for
the purposes of revenue--it was inten-
ded to build Hospitals and furnish them
with every thing necessary for their com
fort when sick.
It may be said that the commerce Of
our Port is small. and there Is no need
of such a building-itis is true our CON-
lmerce is not very extensive, but l am
not urging the claims of Newport sai-

that plead for. Let a petition De pre-
