a LEARNED SHOEMAKER.

The Rochester American gives tho following
account OF tho requirements Of il iourneyman
shoemaker, in Leroy, Genessee county, n. York
1t contains a valuable lesson to mechanics, and
illustrates the power of the human mind in over
coming temptations. This journoyman shoe,na-
ker may some day figure in the halls of Congress,
or occupy the chair of the National Instituted:
MIR. Ames is a journeyman shoemaker. About
hve years s,nce-then twenty four years oid--he
conceived the idea Of making himself acquainted
with common arithmetic-the extent OF his know
ledge ~ that time was very limited. He had
i,ile knowledge OF geography, and could read
and write very well but his knowledge Of figures
did not extend much beyond the iundame ntal rules
oil arithmetic. lilo succeeded so well with ariih-
metlc, that he de,ermind to pursue the higher
branches of mathematics. Accordingly he took
Bourdons agebra-aiter making himself tho
roughly acquainted with this work, he studied
geometry, tgonometry and Farrar's mechanics.
vi these he has good knowledge.
MIR. Ames then turned his aiienti 10 the
study of English grammar, and after )sconinl
iamiiiar with It's principles, no conn enced the
Latin grammar. As he had no time to study /
until after his days work was done, mt night he
was accustomed 10 write down the conugation of
The verbs, and such passages in the grainmar as /
IL was necessary TO have perfectly committed, and I
place them where he could occasionally oct
glance at them during the day. Every day, when
going TO his meals, he was learning The conuga-
ion OF some Ln,in verb. His progress in trans
iating was at first extremely slow. Not having
The benefit of a teacher, it took Il long time for
him TO become satisfied that he had rendered a
sentence correctly. But he persevcred until he /
read six books of Virgil, Sallust, three books of
Taciius, and portion of the odes Of Horace. lie |
then commenced Greek, and can read and trans
late 1t with considerable facility. He has also
learned the French language.-lle has read Te-
.,fc I,.I1t.r
several other French works. This LANGUAGE he
reads with great luency.
During The five years Mr.. Ames has been pur-
suing these studies, he has found time to make
himself familiar with the historical works of Io-
sephus, Rolin, Gibbon and Bancroft. He has
Just commenced studying the German language,
with full determination TO persevere Though
he has pGrsued his studies without teacher, he
pronounces The different languages he has learn
ed with good degree of accuracy.

1.-THE BAREFoorED PRINTER BOY :"

The Pitlsburg Morning Ariel, under this
caption, gives short history of distinguish
ed citizen Of Pennsy lvania, as follows:
'.Thirly years ago, said he, barerooted
boy tloa,ed down the Suspuehanna river, on
an humble raft, and arrived at Harrisburg,
Pennsylvania. He came from the North, and
belonged Ia large family, with all his world
ly goods lied III a little pocket handkerchief;
he sought and obtained employment in 4
printing Office as an apprentice. From an
apprentice 10 journeymau, from Journey
man TO reporter, then editor, the barCiooied
printer boy worked his way against obstacles
which the struggling poor only know. The
perseverng follower in Franklin's footsteps
began 10 realize the fruits OF his patient toll
and privat.on. The young aspiranl became
printer to the State, and by frugal manage
ment was soon enabled to accomplish the
object dearest TO his heart--he establish
ment of his mother in p home above want
in the possession of every comfort she
could desire. His brothers next were his
care, and like Napoleon, he had a strong
arm with which TO aid ihem-an indom,aLle
perseverance that nothing could successfully
oGsirnct. In few years, they, too, with his
sisters, were independent of tie world-the
once bareiooted printer boy was in the pos
session of aiiluence, surrounded by a young
and anecionaie family.
He did not stop here. He was The liiend
of the iriendless, The patron of merit, The en-
couragcr of industry. He rose in honor and
III Office, until The poor barefooted printer boy
who entered a printing Office at Harrisburg,
hungry and weary, laid down his bundle on
a pile oil wet paper, and asked TO become ii
printers apprentice, was elected Senator to
Congress! That name is SIMON CAMERON.
Of Pennsy lvania."
