An 1scrDEsT.-A few years since an American
officer was stationed at fort by one Of tho north
orn lake.. During the long winter months, hc
and his wife were indeed very happy, for there
were whites enough in the ncighborhood TO make a
pleasant circle, and the Indians were exceedingly
friendly; but the FIRST summer evening, when Mrs
Is. raised her low windows, and hung aside the
curtains, TO let in the fresh air, placed her little ta
bic in the middle OF the white lOur and lighted her
pretty solar lamp, brought from her home with 80
much care; and the lieutenant was sitting in the
door, looking out upon the forest, peaceful a. the
shadows that lay ON the ground the pair were
startled by the appearance Of many Indians,
thrusting their dark yisagcs in at every window,
and running hurriodly past the door, looking in
and pointing upward to the sky; and clappiug
their hands and laughing, with signs all as mys.
tcrious as the object OF their visit; until overcome
with wonder and delight, they exclaimed Yves

The Art or THfNKINo.-Onc of the best modes
Of improving in the art of thinking is to think over
some subject before you read upon il and then to
observe after what manner II has occurred 20 the
mind Of some great master; you will then observe
whether you have been too rash or too tinid; what
you have omitted, aud in what you have exceeded;
and by this process you will insonsibly catch
great manner of viewing question. IL Is right in
study, not only to think whenever any extraord-
nary incident provokcs you to think, but from time
10 time review what has passed; to dwell upon it,
and TO sec what trains of thought voluntarily pre-
sent themselves to the mind. IL is a most superior
habit Of some minds TO refer all the particular
truths which.strisc them TO other truths more gen
eral; that their knowledge is beautifully method
lied and the general truth at any time suggests
all the particular cxomplihcations, any particu-
lar exemphhcation at once leads to the general
truth. This kind Of understanding has an immense
and decided superiority over those confused heads
in which one fact is piled upon another, without
the least attempt al Classification and arrange
mcnt Some men always read with pen in their
hand, and commit to paper any new thought which
strikes them; others trust TO chance for its reap
pcarance. Which OF these is the best method ia
the conduct OF the understanding, must suppose,
depend a great deal upon the particular under
standing In question. Some men can do nothing
without preparation others little with it, some are
fountains, some roseryoirs.-Rev. Sydney SmIh.

Jenny Lind In America.

The immense concourse of our citizens collected

stopping there, the universal buzz and cagerncss

the Swedish Nightingale ID destined to create

the case of Malibran, has the coming among us Of
distinguished stranger awakened such enthu-
slaam.

self seeking. Beyond the pleasure Of listening to
her melody, not one in a thousand of those who
