"Yes sir" said she 81 willingly consent
to it, since it is for this only reason that
have made the voyage; and l find myself
much more inclined, as it is from people OF
probity, whom you perfectly know who
have informed me of nothing which does
not inspire me with the greatest esteem for

From the North American Review.

Utility Of practical sciencc.-Why should
thar, which, in the hands of the studious, is
so powerful an instrument, be so useless in
the hands of the active and laborious? We
know that it is not-and it is demonstrable,
as a matter of the plainest inference that
he who works not as a senseless machine,
but as an intelligent handicraftsman, who
understands the powers he yields, and the
elements and materials he works upon, will
have a great advantage in his knowledge.
The artisan with this qualification, will be
constantly improving his tools and the pro-
auctions of his skill, and shortening the pro.
cesses of his labor. The farm will be GER
tain, other things being equal, to be better
cultivated, and to be made more productive,
by scientific agricuturist. He will turn
the stock as well as the soil of his farm to
greater account, with the knowledge that
books of science will give him. How ma.
ny horses have been ruined by ignorance
in the farrier of the part he operates upon.
The foot of horse is connected with the leg
by muscles and ligaments, which answer
the purpose of fine elastic spring, that
saves the animal from the shock, which ev-
cry step would otherwise give him. This
effect is aided by the expansion ofthe hoof,
and by the descent, between the two parts
of it, of soft, muscular substance, techni-
cally called the frog. Now if the shoe be
placed too far back, or be formed SO as to
contract the foot, it will interfere with this
admirable provision of nature; and lame-
ness will ensue.
In the building of houses, again, scienti-
fic principles are indispensable, and unaoubt-
eddy a thorough understanding of them
would enable the carpenter to improve his
plans, and to facilitate the execution of his
task. But there is one evil that especially
calls for a scientific remedy, and that is the
evil of ''smoky houses" There are prin-
ciples, if we are rightly informed, on which
every chimney may be constructed, SO as
certainly to draw smoke; and any one may
convince himself Of this by the fact that q
Franklin stove is an invariable remedy for a
smoky chimney. And yet in many places
if not generally, more than half the chin.
neys are so built, as to inflict this lasting O.
vii, this century's calamity, upon whole
household. The fuel that is expended, Ell
Their to make a stronger draft by increasing
the fire, or to heat the rooms with half oper
doors; the colds, rheumatisms, and various
diseases induced in this way; the irritation
the actual i'll temper occasioned by such cir
cumstances, constitute, all together, M
small item in the troubles and affections
domestic life! And all this, because on
class of our artisans docs not understand il
this particular, the philosophy of their busi
ness

GOOD AND EVIL.

GOOD AND EVIL.
ny 9. q. GOODRICH.
WHEN man from Paradise was driven,
And thorns around his pathway sprung,
Sweet Mercy wandering there from Heaven,
Upon those thorns bright roses flung.
Aye, and as Justice cursed the ground,
She stole behind, unheard, unseen;
And while the curses fell around,
She scatter'd seeds of Joy between.
And thus, as evils sprung to light
And spread, like weeds, their poisons wide,
Fresh healing plants came blooming bright,
And stood, to check them, side by side.
And now, though Eden blooms afar,
And man is exiled from its bowers,
Still Mercy steals through bolt and bar,
And brings away its choicest flowers.
The very toll, the thorns of care,
That heaven in wrath for sin imposes,
BY Mercy changed, no curses are
One brings us rest, the other roses.
Thus Joy is link'd with every wo--
Each cup of i'll its pleasure brings;
Although the rose is crush'd, you know,
The sweeter fragrance from it springs.
If Justice throw athwart our way,
A deepening eve of fear and sorrow
Hope, like the moon, reflects the ray
Of that bright sun that shines tomorrow.
And Mercy gilds with stars the night;
Sweet music plays through weeping willows !;
The blacklist cave with gems is bright,
And pearls illume the ocean pillows.
The very grave, though clouds may rise
And shroud it DER with midnight gloom,
Unfolds to faith the deep blue skies,
That glorious shine beyond the tomb.
