W.Rpr-GRAs.-1his ancient and time
worn festival was celebrated here with the
usual 4 icty--Many queer and fantastic
looking characters, para1ci our streets, to
the treat amusement of the children, who
turned ont il numbers 10 witness the
strange faces, and queer costumes, which
presented themselves ut every corner. The
amusements Of the day wcrN concluded
with n splendid Clancy dress and mas

youth and beauty arrayed in costumes
which fancy alone could have created.
IL would be almost impossible for us to
cnumorate tho different characters pre-

which seemed nonc tho better for wear
but which plainly told that ECONOMY is the

though they were not of the latest style
were fully displayed in real country fash
ion-and though they would doubtless have
created corns ON the toes of some of our
more refined and tender footed Gentry,

velvet and he in his rustic attire felt as hap

swelling with emotions Of vanity and

The wild Indian too was there, ming

past dis, nsions. and wrongs.
And with Il bosom swelling with plea
surahle emotions, the child Of the For

WoHDnRruL CnftDnEN.-Flnt i more
ridiculous than for parents to tell Of Inc
wonderful capacities of their children I
There arc those who seem to think there
never were such prodigies as their own
offspring, and they never let slip all oppor-
tunity of bringing them before the conpa
ny. Some years ago we were - the cars
with u man and his wife, who were &C
c~ompanird by two child en-very ordinary
looking to be surc-but the parents, by
their actions, seemed to think there were
never such. Every triiiing remark OF the
children was received by u hearty laugh
from them, while they repeated it over aud
over again. We thoughtthcy would have
sunk exhausted with laughter, when one
child said. The trees arc running from
u.s." and The flats smells like roast
clans" Every one in the cars was per-
fectly disgusted, bnt 1.-The parents did not per.
cciyo it, andthought all the travellers were
admiring the wit, intel gence and beauty
of their children. g
We perceive but very little difference in
young children, and when i parent is eter
nally talking about his child, it strikes u
that he is lacking in good judgment an
: sound common sense. If children are roa
prodigics, it will soon be discovered an
spoken of by others, without the disgust
ing remarks of parents. We would ad
. wise all who have children TO say as littI
y about them as possible, and not carry thor
in every car and steamboat, that Other
may behold.their wonderful precocity.

MECHANICS AMONG THE ANCLENTs.-
The foreign correspondent Of the Savan-
nah Republican gives the following inter-
csting information concerning the means
used at Pompeii for supplying that iiI-iated
city with water -
THE town of Pompeii was supplied
with water by means of pipes of iron, lead
and of baked clay. The museum contains
a bronze cock, of a large size, which has
two communicating pipes. The FLASHING
| of water, which has been SO long herme-
/ tically sealed, can now be heard in it. 1t
is proved, both by the fountains and fresco
. painting, that the ~Pompeiians were ac-
Quainted with that law Of water which
causes the fluid flowing in a pipe to ascend
to the level of its source. 1t has always
been gravely assumed that this property
was not known to them, Or it is presumed
they wLuld not have carried their aqleducta
! over such stupendous arches of masonry,
Perhaps in some of these cases, there may
have been labor lost, but they must have
known well the impossibility Of making
masonry to resist the hydrostatic pressure
where there was a great head of water
t Perhaps at some remote period, it may b

quainted with thst property of fluids, Q
