DIR. MATHER BYLES,

A correspondent of the Transcript furnishes
that paper with chapter of jokes and puns by
the waggsh Divine, DR.. Byles, some of which
are new and "not bad to take" The following
are among the most mirth provoking -
"On one occasion, fellow complaining to
him that he was dying with the tooth ache-the
Dr., as a remedy, sent him to COpley, the pOr-
trait painter, to have it the TOOTH dra,on.
DR., Byles had complained, long, often, and
fruitlessIy to the selectmen, Of quagmire in
front of his dwelling. One morning, two otthe
fathers of the town, after a violent rain, passing
with their chaise, became stuck in this bog. As
they were striving to extrlcate themselves, and
pulled 10 the right and left, the Dr. came FORTH
and, bowing with great pOliteness, exclaimed

Christian Cheerfulness.

The Gospel is pure and genuine gladness 1t
is God reconcied; it is peace in the conscience I;
it is the blessed prospect of glory; and did we
tarry in its constant shining, Its hopefulness
should gild our countenances and beam on all
our movements, The christian teacher should
be an embodied gospel, and if dependency or
severity be our habitual temperament, we may
be devout, but we are not evangelical. We have
got wrong version Of the christian revelation,
and are giving forth erroneous views fit. But
more than this, few have ever effected any thing
important, as relormecs, or evangdiists, who do
not carry with them genial atmosphere, and
look at the brightest side of things.

INSTINCT IN A FISH.

At meeting Of the Liverpool Philosophical
Society, [ahout year s,nee1 DR. warsviels re-
lated an extraordinary instance of intelligence
in fish when he resided at Durham, the scat
Of the Earl at Stamford and Warrington, he
was walking one evening in the park, and came
10 a pond where fish intended for the table
tice Of fine pike, of about SIX pounds weight,
which, when it observed him, darted hastily a.
way. In so doing It struck its head against
tenterhook in post (Of which there were several
in the pond, placed to prevent poaching, and as
it afterwards appeared, fractured its skull, and
turned the optic nerve on one side. The agony
eyiuced by the fish appeared most horrible. 1t
rushed to the bottom, and boring its head into
the mud whrlcd itself round with such velocity
thFt it was almost lost to the sight for short
interval. It then planged about the pond, and
at eDg!: threw itself completely out of The
water oA the bank. lie the doctor went and
examined it, and found that very small por.
/ ton Of the brain as protrudng from the fracture
in the skull, lie carefully replaced this, and
with small silver tooth.picll raised the iudent-
cd portion of the skull. The fish remained still
tor short time, and he then put it again into
the pond. 1t ltappeated at first good deal re-
eyed but IN few minutes it again darted
and plunged about until it threw itself out of
the water second time. A second time DR..
Warwick did what he could to relieYe, and
again put it into the water. 1t continued for
several times to throw itself out Of the pond
aud with the assistance of the keeper, the doc
tor made kind Of pillow for the fish, which was
then left in the pond to its fate. Upon making
his appearance at the pond on the following
morning, the pike came towards him to the
edge of the water, and actually laid its head up.
on his foot. The doctor thought this most ex-
= traordinary; but ho examined the ishs skull
and found it going on all right. He then walk,
ed backwards along the edge of the pond fol
some time, and the fish continued to swim up
and down, turning whenever he turned; but be-
inc blind on the wounded side Of its skull ii
always appeared agitated when 1t had that slds
towerds the bank, as it could not then see its
benefactor. On the next day he took some
young friends down to see the fish, which come
to him as usual; and at length he actually
taught the pike to come at his whistle, and feed
out of his hands With other persons it contin.
ued as shy as fish usually are. He, (Mr War
wickl thought this most remarkable instance
of gratitude in Il fish, for a benefit received
and as it always came al his whistle, it proved
also what had previously, with other naturalist
disbelieved,- that fishes are sensible 10 sound

a Singular Circumstance.

Going to Albany on Saturday last, IN compa-
ny with another gentleman says the Troy Wing,
we witnessed circumstance showing that ami
mails have strong sympathy with other animals
in distress. On the right hand side Of the road
a sluico way had been provided for the water
from the adjoining fields, and on the banks by
the fence the grass was growing finely, This,
it seems had tempted horse, a noble animal, to
venture alongside, but by some misstep he lost
his foothold, and was prccipitated into the ditch
below, the water nearly covering his body, and
his head lying on one side.
AT the time we saw the animal in this condi-
ton, COW was alongside Of him, striving her
best to extricate him from his unfortunate plight.
She had got his neck between her horns, and
was making powerful effort to raise him; and
as one trial failed, she redoubled her exertions
for anolher-~the horse at the same time strug
Cling his best. The beastly affection, so to
speak, which was exhibited by the COW toward
the horse, will by many be regarded as fabulous,
and we confess we should think SO ourselves had
we not witnessed it.

TO THE AMERICANS.

The following poem appeared in the New En-
gland Chronicle, published in Cambridge, or
the 18th of April I775, the day before the battle
Of Lexington
Ye Heirs of Freedom glorons is your cause,
Your ALL, your charterd Liberty and Laws,
Are now at stake-then let thy noble Fires
Which warm'd the Bosoms of your god-like Sires,
Now fill your Souls with an heroic Flame,
To shield your Rights and gain immortal fame
Great Liberty! each freeborn mind
With Ardor in THE CAUSE of human kind.
The Cause Of Heaven, the great Concern o.
earth
The Cause of all who ever shall have BIRTH
From this bright Hour thro' ages as they roll,
Who live from the Worlds Centre to the Pole
Americans Let man to man be joined
In FreedomB Cause, and Courage steel eacI
mind
TO meet the tyrants, and their hostile Band
Drive from the crimson iied-sweep the land
Ofevery Wretch, who hath his Country sold,
For empty Honor, or for sordid Gold,
Who would destroy the freedom of the brave
That HIS MEAN SELF might live pensione
Slave.
Death, drest in Horror, meets the guilty Great,
And makes them tremble on the Throne of State
Not SO the brave, the just, the good and wise,
Death is their passport to the bIssful Skies.

Death from Superstition,

David Boston, coloTed man, died near Ilch-
ester, tMd) on the lst inst, from the effects Of
superstition. He had contracted severe cold,
and suffered much from an accumulation of
phlegm on the chest. The choking sensation
and hoarse breathing consequent on this, induce
cd him to believe he had a frog in him, and that
he had been ''tricked." His wife went to Bait.
and consulted Fortune Teller" who confirm.
ed her suspicious, and added that the first per-
son who should come to her house after her re-
tnrn home, was the trickster. This was suffi.
cient. The poor man took little or no nourish-
ment no one was allowed to visit him and af-
ter his death some fifty cotton balls were found
placed about him for tie purpose of breaking
the Spell"

SCENES on THE ADIRON-
DACK LAKES.
pY FRANK FORREsTER.
THE LOST BOY.

It was night; very dark night. After the
hunt the hunters were asleep with their feet to
the fire, aud their dogs coilcd up comfortably
round the blazing log,pile.
1t was night very dark night. Only the
"Whte Cloud" was awake, keeping the watch
in his turn but now lying down, wrapt in his
blanket now rising stealthily to feed the flame.
to listen to some unaccustomed noise to do his
work, be it what it might be socver, for the
night, but never seeping never doing for one
instant.
Suddenly he started and, as he did so, the
eldest of the deer, hounds raised his head from
his paws, between which it had been couched,
prcked his ea,s sharply, and uttered low,
smothercd growl; and yet, their was no sound
on the faint western air that could have made
the slightest impression on the nerves of the
quickest huuter, whose blood was purely white.
The White Cloud" rose, and gathering up
a heap of dead wet leaves and earth, threw them
upon the fire, thereby to quoII the CLEAN and
glitter and, that being done, looscned his knife
in the scubbard looked to the lock of his rifle.
and then without tumult or disturbance, stole
into the camp, laid his hand on Harry Archer's
shoulder, and, as he rose quietly, at the touch,
from his sumbers, said in calm low voice
Best be up, now, tell you; canoe come,
quick Maybe good-tinh not-any how, best
be up ~
The other Indian had risen to his feet even
before Harry, although he had not been espec-
tally summoned, but Frank continued to sleep
soundly until his friend stirred him with the
butt of his rifle and he too, started up, and be.
ing informed of what was IN prospect prepared
himself for whatever might follow.
By this time the pIash of paddles was dis
tincty audible on the still night air. and it soor
became evident that canoe was making for the
island from the hearest mainland, at point very
near to that where their own barks were beach
ed, directed probably, by the glare of the watcl
fire, which sireamed upward far above the dusk
tree tops.
So soon as this was evident, a short counci
was held, and it was determined to advance an
meet the intruders on the margin of the waite
where they would have the advantage Of lgh
. rather than to encounter them in the gloom
vaults of the forest.
The Indians, though grave and fearless, WEI
impressed strongly with the idea that dangt

TRUTH VS.. ERROR.

Truth courts investigation, but error shrnks
from scrutiny. Truth fears no evils from the
most rigid examination, bnt error always fears
the consequences. Truth is immutahle and will
stand criticism. Truth, like its author, is eter-
nal and will exist amid the wreck of matter and
the crush of worlds, while error will be swept a.
way with the refuge of lies. The more you ey-
smine truth, Ike gold, the brighter it Shines
Truth is not tarnished by inspection, but discov-
ers more splendor. Any system which shrnks
from scrutiny, discovers corruption in its premis-
es, and is unworthy the attention of an inte-
gent mind.

The obelisks at Rome are composed of solid
pieces of stone, ninety feet high as hard as met
al. The French put one of these IN front oil
Louis Philippe's palace, and engraved few
words on its surface. 1t took six sets OF the
ba, dest and best tools that could be procured
and three weeks constant labor to accomplish
this while the ancient obeisks are covered
with characters and inscriptions, made on then
before the use of iron was known to us; anC
the engravings and characters on those ancient
obelisks, are yet fresh.
The edge of these raised characters are no
even worn off by the weather; but are so tin'
and sharp that they will cut persons finger b.

A WESTERN WOMAN.

A correspondent Of Detroit paper describes
a western woman, whose feats of industry
will doubtless be regarded as fabulous by many
of cur delicate and do,nothlng city ladies. 1t
seems that during the past winter and spring,
her husband having gone to California, besides
taking care of five children, the eldest girl
twelve years of age, and her eldest boy only
five years old, the youngest an infant at the
breast, she has woven seven hundred yards of
satinet and shawls made eight hundred pounds
maple sugar; cut and drawn from the forest all
the wood the family needed during the winter,
and chopped the same at the doorj attended to
her milling and trading fifteen miles from home
with an OK team driving it herself, and taking
all the care CT them and her six COWS and eev.
en- sheep, when at home. Above al she is on
ly about thirty five years of age, very modest
and unassuming, and has no idea that she has
accomplished anything more than any industri-
Gus woman may with ordinary diligence and
good health.
How in the world can the husband of such
wife need to go to Cali ornia IN search of
wealth ?-Yankes Blade.

Paper made 1900 Wears Ago

The Chinese affirm that 1900 years ago they
had discovered the secret and means Of manu.
featuring paper before that invention, they used
to inscribe written characters on thin strips Of
bamboo, or sheets of metal using a style, or pen
\ OF iron, for the pnrppae Of maxine the nhar""
ters and this, they aert, iIad been the practice
of their nation from the most reurOs- ,eyas In
the first century of the Christian era, during the
reigh of the Han dynasty, mandarin, who was
attached to the emperor's court, and whose name
was Sailun, discovered the art of paper-makng.
Tradition atfirms that this mandarin took the
bark of trees, PIECES of old silk, and hempen
CLOTH and boiled them down until they came to-
the consistence of glue, or paste; he then spread
the mass in thin layers upon the earth, and the
suns rays dried up the the moisture, leaving n
thin compact substance thus the fret paper
was made Shortly afterwards, the means was
discovered by which smooth surface is given
to the paper.--SUr's China and The Chinese
