Capt. Ross, nephew Of the celebrated arc=
tic navigator, has recently submitted TO the
English government plan for a new polar

MISCELLANY !,
THE WOLVES AND THE FIDDLER

Many years ago man was going thro,
the woods in Indiana, with no companion
but his fiddle, when he discovered that a
pack of wolves was on his track. They
pursued very cautiously, but few OF
Them would dash up, and growl a if impa-
,ient for their prey, and then fail back again.
As lie had several miles to go, he became
much alarmed He sometimes stopped,
shouted, drove back his pursuers, and then
proceeded. The animals became more and
more audacious. and would probably have
attacked him, had he not arrived at de-
serted cabin which stood by the way side,
Into this he rushed fol shelter, and without
waiting TO shut the door, climbed up aud
seated himself on the rafters. The wolves
rushed in after him and becoming quite fu.
rious, howled, and leaped, and endeavored,
with every expression Of rage, TO get to him.
The moon was now shining brightly, and
he being able to see his enemies, and satis>
fed of his own safety, began to act on the
offensive. Finding the cabin full of them,
he crawled down to the top of the door,
which he shut and fastened. Then reno
wing some of the loose boards from the roof
scattered them with tremendous clatter
upon such of his foes as remained outside,
who scampered of, while those in the house
began to crouch with fear. He had now
large number Of prisoners to stand guard
over until morning-and drawing forth his
fiddle, he very good natnredly played for
them all night, very much, as he supposed,
to their edifcation sand amusement: for
like all lovers of music, be Imagined that
it had power to soften even the heart Of a
wolf On the ensuing day, some of the
neighbors assembled, and destroyed the cap
lives, with great Iejoicings.

Farewell, dear friend-'tis like dream,

Warming my hearts congenial core,

My very heart TO thine-now cold.
Adieu-adieu-and once again.

Which deaths cold hand has child away;

PURSUIT OF KNOWLEDGE UNDER
DIFFICULTIES.

The following is most remarkable and
praisewor,hy instance ofwhat perseverance
and industry. rightly directed, are able to
effect. Among the graduating class at the
commencement last week, al Williams Col.
lege, was one by the zane of Cohdit, from
New Jersey. This gentleman is shoema-
ker, is married, and has family of four
children. Six years ago, becoming sensible
of the blessings of an education, he CONF
menced learning the simple branches. such
as are taught in our primary schools. One
by one, as he sat on his shoemaker's bench,
he mastered grammar, arithmetic geogra-
phy. &C, with some occasional assistance
from his fellow workmen. At this time he
determined to obtain college education.
Without means, and with large family de-
pending on him for support, he commenced
and learned Latin and Greek in the eve
nings, after his days labor was over, under
the direction of a friend and after the
lapse of a year and half prepared himself,
and enn red the Sophmore class of W illiams'
College.
He brought his bench and tools as well
as books with him. The students Supplied
him with work-the faculty assisted him ;
and together with the fund for INDECENT stu
dents and some occasional assistance from
other sources, he was enabled to gothrough
the College course, and at the same time
support his family. He graduated last
week, on his birthday, aged thirty two

Reverence of Age.

Reverence is always due TO aged people.
God, nature, and proper education, say to
the young. Reverence old age Grey hairs
are crowns of glory, when found in the way
Of righteousness. The promptings of our
kindly nature teach us to respect the aged. to
rise up before the hoary head. The dim eye.
the furrowed brow, the temples thinly clad
who would not respect, reverence and love
them?
We love the youth who reverences the
aged always, whoever they are. O youth
revere thy aged hiend, respect those silver
locks, SO whltened by the toiling hardships
Of many long years.
