Accountability Bartholomew, Of this
village, in coming from Leicester on the
railroad track on Saturday morning last. was
struck by the engine of the 1 O'Clock train,
and so severely injured that il is thought she
cannot possibly recover. The rios on both
sides are broken, as Is also her collar bone
and nose and a severe cash cut in the back
of the head No blame is attached to any
person connected with the train, as every
thing was done that could be to warn her off
the track and to stop the train. The unfor.
tunate woman must have lost all presence of
mind, as she left the track and then went
back again. She has not yet TUESDAY

LONG LIVED PEoPLE.-From the advance
sheet of ''The Art Of Proonging Life" in
press by Ticknor s. Co., Boston -
LIE. me now be permitted to delinea.e the
por.rai. OF a man destined to long life. He
has proper and we'll proporlioned stature,
without, however, being too tall. He is
rather of the middle size, and somewhat
lhick-set. His complexion is not TOO foid
at any rate, too much ruddiness in youth
is seldom sign of longevity. His hair ap-
proaches rather 10 the fair than the black
his skin is strong, bu, not rough. His head
in not TOO big; he has large veins at the ex-
!remilies and his shoulders are rather round
than fiat. His neck is no. too long; his
abdomen does not project; and his are large
but not too deeply cleft. His foot is rather
thick than long and his legs ere firm and
round. He has also broad archeo chest and
strong voice, and the faculty Of retaining
his breath for long time without difficulty.
In general there is a complete harmony in all
his parts. His senses are good, but not too
delicate. his pulse is slow and regular.
His stomach is excellent, his appetite
SOou3 oilu SSdoa SoSy' oS ~
the table are to him of importance; they
turn his mind to serenity, and his soul par
takes in the pleasure which they communi-
cate. He does not eat merely for the sake
of eating; but each meal is an hour Of dali
ly festiviIy and kind of delight attended
with this advantage, in regard TO olhers,
tha. il does not make him poorer, bu! rich
er. He eats slowly, and has not too much
thirst. Too great thirst is always sign Of
self consumption.
la general he is serene, loquacious, &C.
tive, susceptible of joy, love and hope but
insensibe to the impressions of hatred, an
ger and avarice. His passions never be-
come too violent or destructive. lie is
fond also of employment, particularly calm
mediation and agreeable specula,ions is an
oplimist, friend to nature and domestic
felicity, has no thrs, after honor or riches,
and banshes all thoughts of tomorrow.

MIS- ELL A N E 0 i S
THE LADY PROFESSOR.
A TALE OF SCIENCE.

Professor Agnesi sat in his study at Bo-
logna, listening wearily to the commo ,-pla-
ces of coincidence which were being repeated
for his benefit, by well-mesning, but no,
less tiresome friend.
The conversalion, he was beginning to
think, had last too long, when it was pleas
ingIy interrupted by the entrance of beau
tifnl child, some nine or ten years old, who,
after hastily greeting the stranger, took a
low seat near her father, and bent over q
treatise which might we'll puzzle almos,
any young lady twice her age.
The visitor uttered an exclamation Of
surprise: and then earnestly endeavored to
persuade the fond father to place some
check upon the cultivation of talents, the
precoclIy Of which might prove dangerous
10 her health. The professor replied lha.
his anxious care was to preven: such cal
amily, and 10 that consideration he was ever
watchfulIy alive.
Professor Agnesi had recently lost his
wife, TO whom he was devotedly attached.
and therefore his only child, SO strongly re-
sembling her mother in her features, and
SO closely sympa.hisng with her father in
Years passed on; six languages yielded their

teen she had completely mastered them,
end turned 10 some more solid food for her
yet hungering expanding mind she found
congcnial employment in unravelling the
sublime difficulties of philosophy and ma
themaics. But was it possible ,ha, she, an
Italian girl, could amuse herself with theses
and geometry wi.hou. awakening of that
sweetest chord Of the human heart, q
touch Of which thrills SO powerfully through
all the being?
The fame Of her beauty, her learning, and
her probable wealth, (for her fathers posi-
ton as professor a. the University Of BoIog-
ma was generally considered lucrative one, }
attracted many her admirers, her lovers
were not few in number, bu! the many
wooed in vain ii was an age OF effemlna-
cy for young men great attainments were
beginning 20 be bu, little valued; il was the
commencement. Of tha: deep elhargy which
has since dried up the springs of Italian in
tellec,, and Maria d'Agnesi could not like.
much less love an ignorant man nay, she
regarded with profound contempt all who
fell short of a certain standard of excel
lence.
She delighted in the company Of the ell
derly philosophers, who were attracted a.
like by her fathers fame and ,ha. Of her
sell, but neither she nor they ever thought
Of marriage end if by chance any young
man of superior intellect crossed her path,
he regarded her as friend, an inslrucress,
bu. did not dream Of making her wife.
Thus needless Of all ideas of love, she
gave her whole soul TO the Propositions

BoNAPARTE's Poverty IN EARLY LIFE.
NJ. Thiers, in bis history of the Consulate,
recl,es very strange and previously un-
known particulars respecting the early life
and penury Of Napoleon Bonaparte. t.ap-.
pears that after he had obtained a subal!ern's
commission in the French service, by his
skill and daring al Toulon, he lived for
some tine in Paris in obscure lodgings, that
he was often without means of paying ten
sous (len cents) for his dinner, and frc-
quen.ly went Without any at all. He was
under the necessity of borrowing small
sums, and even worn out clothes, from his
acquainlances He and his brother Louis.
after wards King Of Holland, had 9. one
time, only a coat between them, SO that the
brothers could only 60 ou. alternately, time
about. At this crisis, the chief benefactor
Of the future emperor and conqueror, sat
whose mighty name the world grew pale,"
was the actor Talms, who often gave him
food and money. Napoleon's face, after
wards SO famed for it's classical mould, was
during the period Of starvation, harsh and
angular in its lneamenls, with projecting
cheek bones. His meagre form brought on
an unplessan. and unsigh!y cusaneous dis
ease, Of type SO virulen. and malignant,
tha. it took all the skill and assiduity Of his
accomplished physician Corvisars, 10 ex-
pei it, afler duration of more than ten
years.

are the ups and downs of this cbangeful life;
such are The lights and shadows Of the great

WHAT ] LIVE FOR.


BY C. L. BANKS.
] live for those who love me,
For those | know are true,
For the heaven that smiles above me,
And awaits my spirit too;
For all human ties that bind me,
For the task Of God assign d me,
For the bright hopes left behind me,
And the good that | can do.
live to learn their story,
Who've suffered for my sake,
To emulate their glory,
And follow in their wake
Bards, martyrs, patriots, sages,
The noble Of all ages,
Whose deeds crowd bistory's pages,
And times great volume make.
l live to hail that season.;
By gifted minds foretold,
When men shall live by reason,
And not alone by gold
When man to man united,
And every wrong thing righted,
The whole world shall be lighted,
AS Eden was of old.
| live to hold communion
With all that is divine,
To feel there is union
'Twixt Nature S heart and mine
To profit by affliction,
Rea p truths from fields of fiction,
Grow wiser from conviction
And fulfill each great design.
] live for those who love me,
For those who know me true,
For the heaven that smiles above me,
And awaits my spirit too;
For the wrong that needs resistance,
For the cause that lacks assistance,
For the FUTURE in the distance,
And the good chat can do.
