A STRANGE CAsE.-A little boy about fifteen
years of age entered an apothecary store in this
city on Saturday last, and asked for some quiz
nine. The Doctor observing his apparent weak
ness, told him to sit down while he waited on
prior customer; but before the Doctor got
through, the little fellow tainted and fell upon
the floor. On examination it was found that
the boy was exhausted for cant Of food! After
they had recovered him they learned his story.
His father was dead and his mother was re-
married. and he, from fear of his father in law,
| had run from home He obtained employment
on some canal boat, but was taken sick with
| the chAs and fevers, and in this condition his
employer had forsaken him after bringing him to
| this city Here he had wandered about, seek
ing employment and food without success, until
he had become exhausted. He had just been
driven out of a grocery store where he had
asked for food, and every one to whom he ap-
piled looked upon him as vagabond and i'm
poster He was asked whether he had written
to his mother, and he pointed to his pocket,
where there was letter written to her, which
proved him to be a boy of considerable intelli-
gence; and his appeals to be allowed to return
nome drew tears from those who heard il read
His present necessities were relieved, and he
was taken to the Infrmary, where several gem
tlemen agreed to pay his weekly board until
his recovery.
On hearing these particulars, we called at
the Infrmary, and learned that the boy had
been discharged on Friday, cured. We trust
that he has met with good and kind friends.
We have to remark upon this case, that while
| it is well to be guarded in our charities, that
We may not be imposed upon, and thus made to
countenance idleness and dishonesty, it is the
duty of all to listen to the appeal for aid, and
to inquire into the truth of the tale Of want and
sorrow before we utterly reject it 1t is a safe
rule to make inquiry Always before bestowing
money, but the charitably disposed can seldom
err in giving food in every case Of appeal No
bad use can be- made Of it-nor will the inn
poster, as q general rule, seek to get what is
so useless to him, except in case of actual want.
That,we should suffer one to starve among us,
while we are in the midst of plenty, from fear
Of imposition, is bitter reflection. 1t were
better far that we should be imposed upon every
day, than that such q stain should rest upon
our hospitality,

age itself of the Able, Franklin showed de-
cisive talent" for electricity, and as an original
discoverer no man Of his age excelled him IN
that science. Surely this was a " decisive tai
emit for particular science" In politics, TINS
same Franklin also showed "decisive talent"
foiling tho University bred and Court-bred di-
plomacy of Europe. In the art OF war wash
ington and Green, in that same age, displayed
superiority to all the boasted tactics and STRAIT
egy of Europe. And the Americans in general
showed such decisive talent in this important
and difficult art, that they captured two armies
Of the richest and most powerful nation of Eu-
rope, then but recently fresh from a war in
which, in the language of M. De Voltaire, Eng
land had triumphed in all the four quarters OF
the globe.
And in our own day, what philosopher, pur-
suing the science cultivated by Franklin, and
its kindred branch, galvanism, has applied cleo
tricity to the most useful purposes, and in
vented q language by which men may talk to
each other at thousands of miles distance? An
american philosopher and republican, Morse
the son of that Morse who was long known in
our schools as the first author Of an american
national geography, and known also as an indi-
vidual of eminent moral worth. These surely
might alone redeem America from the reproach
of failing to contribute her share to science and
| the useful arts. But the catalogue is not full,
nor can we now make it full, nor even hereafter,
| for our readers would not thank us for being 30
| tedious. We will, however, name Whitney, a
native of Connecticut, the inventor Of the cot
ton gin, which has contributed 80 immensely to
swell the wealth Of that naughty continent,
which has directed against US so many shafts
for our deficiency Of invention in the useful
arts. Or, what shall we say to that old and
luxurious Europe, which, though engaged 30
often in most sanguinary wars, has not supplied
in FIVE hundred years, from the invention Of
firearms, rife or pistol in the least compare
BILE to that of Samuel Colt, native of New
England?
Great people, those Europeans! Doubtless
they have shown wonderful talent in circum-
vention, fraud, Machiavelism; and some of them
great virtues and genius for great discoveries !;
but among the most wonderful things about
them is the absurdity of their reproaches of US
for our deficiency in genius for the arts and
sciences--us, people who have thrashed them
on the land and the ocean, beaten them in the
cabinet, and, in proportion to our numbers, ex-
celled them in important discoveries and inven-
tons in the arts and sciences for which let US
not be pulled up, but remember that we are
principally indebted to that gracious Omnipotent
Ruler, without whom we are nothing.
