4 quick lcdy TO get rich-A Miss Ingram of
Pontiac, some time since was perusng Texas
paper. and observed among the persons that
bore prominent part in the affairs of that gov
ernment, a man bearing her own name, and
jocosely remarked to her companions thai she
had made an important dscovery-that she had
found namesake in Texas, and intended 10
write to him and claim relationship. This res
olulion, more from curiosity and desire of
novelty than from any conviction that her hopes
would be realized, was carried into effect
She wrote him a respectful letter, giving him
history Of her family and parentagc, and sug-
gesting that as tho name was not as common as
most Of the names of our country, the probab
iy was strong that relationship existed be-
tween them. She received in reply, friendly
and affeclionate letter acknowledging her a
cousin, and expressing an earnest desire that
the correspondence nigh, be continued
This was readily acceded TO, and it was car
RED on agreeably and satisfactorily TO both
parties, until very recently, when she received
intelligence of his death, and Information that
in his will he had bequeathed her the handsome
sum Of 500, 900 in gold and silver, leaving his
personal property and immense landed estates
10 his relatives in that country. A few days
previous to the reception Of this communica-
ton. she had connected her fortunes, with
those of a methodist Clergyman, and should
their deeds Of charity comport with their
means, the widows heart will be filled with JOY,
and many an orphan live to implore blessings
upon the heads Of their benfactors, for their
deeds Of benevoence and generosity.

Brandy from Potato St0rch.-A sres, revolu-
ton is at present going on in the dIsrilling
trade, from the recent discovery that petato
flour. or starch, is capable by due fermentation
OF yielding very pure and we'll tasted spirit.
Some specimens have recently been submitted
to the spirit merchants, which even the most
experienced among them have scarcely been
able TO distinguish from French brandy: for e.
ven the true viuious favor OF Cogniac has been
successfully initiated by certain chemical com.
position which the English refiners have been
enabled TO add to the spirit from potato starch.
Three distilerie, for the production Of this
kind OF British brandy have recently been c.
reeted in the metropolis, and two Of these are
already in operation.

Take Care Of your Feet.-The circumstances
in which wet feet and cold feet are most apt TO
cause diseases, are when person remains insc-
tive, and when, consequently, there is nothing
10 counterbalance the unequal flow Of blood
which then takes place towards the internal
parts; for it is well known, that person in or
binary health may walk about or work IN the
open air. with wet feet for hours together without
injury, providing he put on dry stockings and
shoes Immediately on coming home. II is,
therefore, not the mere state Of wetness that
causes the evil. but the check TO psrsplralion,
and the unequal distribution OF blood 10 which
the accompanying GOODNESS gives rise.

Preventive of Corn and Hay Stacks from
Liehtning.-A simple preventive from injury
by tightening to corn and hay stacks is that of
merely putting broken glass bottle as cap
on the point where the thatch terminates,
in place Of a spur or spiral pinlcle Of reed that
is mostly placed at their summit. both Of which
are, with the exception Of iron, the best conduc-
tors Of the electric fluid, and are generally the
cause Of the accidents. which occur from the
hghteuing; whereas glass is uon-conductor
and repels the flash instead al conducting IL.
