into the assembly Of venerable ages with mild

with earnest thought He is no lavorte of earth

of exclusive schools, but the simple child of the
unsophisticaed people, stepped to the lips in suf-
fering; and yet, mightier than the domes that
bend above him, he is for the intellect and heart
of man glorious temple, built with the choic-
est riches of unnumbcrcd worlds The first
question he propundS startles the attention Of all
who hear him, and creates the greatest aston
ishment in the most profound for his words bear
that charm of immaculate wisdom that can Meth
er be dcfaced nor exceed, Question succeeds
to question, and learning, in despair, grows more
and more confused in this, the grandest gadia-
torship of mind yet witnessed on earth. Sage

cnced before that youth appareled in the plain
garb of peasant life, radiant with the celestial
life that emanates from an aspiring heart, and
bent on throwing wide open the gates Of nstruc-

From the Olive Branch,
THE BURNING SEIZE.
by CARL UNA.

In the autumn of 49,, was soiourninc in
the State of Louisiana, when suddenly impor.
tant business demanded my presence in Genoa,
(Italy.) The detention that would occur if |
should go to New York to embark, and the in
convnnlences of a journey at this season of the
year, induced me to take passage in cotton
loaded ship from New Orleans to Narseillcs-
The vessel was owned and commanded hy Cant,
Hartley, who also owned principal part of the
cargo, the result of life Of prudence and hard
toll. After short passage we caught sight of
the Spanish coast, but here We met severe and
protracted gales from the East, which baflled us
for several weeks. One day we bore down upon
fleet Of vessels that had Just come out through
the Straits of Gibraltar, before the Ito them) IA
yoring gale, and exchanged papers with French
ship direct from Marseles. By the French pa
pers our captain learned to his Joy and surprise,
that there wonld be but very small stock Of
cotton in Marseilles, and consequently the first
vessel which should arrive there, could command
any price demanded This news caused CAPT
Hartey's heart to throb violently, and he looked
around upon the clouds with Anxiety, and soon

The little l have seen of the world teaches
me to look upon the errors of others in sorrow,
not in anger, When | take the history of one
poor heart that has sinned and suffered, and rep
resent to myself the struggles and temptations
it has passed through the brief pulsations of
joy, the feversh inquietude Of hope and fear
the pressure of want; the deseftions of friends
the scorn Of the world, that has little charity

Building Houses for Burning.

On examining into the causes of the rapidity
Of flames in London houses when on fire, it will
almost invariably be found that whatever may
have occasioned the fire to break out the rapid
ty of its progress has been in proportion to the
greater or less extent of the lath and plaster
partitions. the hollow wooden floors and stair
cases, Were the occupicr5 of houses sufficient
ly aware of the danger from lath and plaster par.
ttions, especially when they enclose stair cases
they would never occupy such houses; o., il
they did, would not give such rents for them as
they would for houses with brick nogging parti-
tons. Again and again we protest against the
ubsurdity Of constructing houses as if for the
express purpose of readily burning and nrgc
on the other hand, the Importance Of adopting
every means to render them freproof and the
sin against society which the neglected precau-
ion nyolves.-Bmlder.

out of evil. Forit was so in the end, if not in
the intention, The old man, twbe together with
his daughter, had only been stunned by terror

circumstance, if not aAecdohately moved by the
attentions Of the son Of his old friend, and the

The art of FLIGHT.

The art of flying has more or less occupied
the inventive power of men, since the days of
DadaIus. Here we may allow that cost and e .
ven danger may be left out Of consideration, and
that toe question is one of simple pracicabity
The balloon offers the nealost approximation to
a successful solution; since, though we could
not properly fly, we might float suspended to
those buoyant spheres; and efforts to steer bal
looms have accordingly been innumcrable. Now
a very simple calculation will show that wind
OF fifteen miles an hour would exert, upon anv
sphere of useful size, pressure greater thar
any weight it could sustain in the air, The
power, consequently, which would be required
to retain the machine stationary against such a
wind or, what is the same thing, propel it at a
like rate through a still utmosphere-must be
greater than that which would keep up in the
air without balloon at all. A good three
fourhs of prospective aeronauts, therefore. sur
rounded their task with unnecessary difficulty.
And the remainder, who devise so many varieties
of imitatiyy plumage and pinons, might ha, G
saved their labor if they had reflected that, be-
fore they could use their ingenious apparatus
they must possess some motive power which
could support its own weight and something
more, for a reasonable time. They were CON
strucung new wings, while the thing wanted a
new steam engine Eding1rg Rey,aO.

from England, has brought over great variety
of beautiful Telegraph machinery, to be used as
