slavery child's paper" SO say we, and more.

say
The Jurenilc Instructor, a small s%emi-monthly
for children. published by L.. G.. Matlack, at SYRIA
cuse, is a neat cheap readable paper. 1t is eleva-
ted in its moral tone and %reformatory in its spirit.
-PennSyirdntd freeman.
Our anti-slavery friends will be glad to learn
that tits thoroughly right on the question of negro
slavery. 1t is the first juvenile paper in the coun
try which is anti-slavcry. Let it have a wide clrcu-
lation.-Hor!ford Republican.
The LreniIe Instructor is a most admirably con-
Quoted little paper for children, issued in this city.
We find it always welcomed by the little ones, and
we see, by glancing over its columns, that Uncle
Lucius,' the editor, possesses in an eminent degree
the rare faculty of entering for the childish mind.

NIAGARA SUSPENSION BRIDGE.

Those only, who.havo visited Niagra, and adj
mired the arr lelying appearance of she scenery
can appreciate The feelings which the crossing of q
locomotive and train of cars over the wire suspen-
sion bridge must have inspired. Foot passengers
when standing on the middle of the old suspension
bridge, and viewing the waving and dashing waters
beneath, would almost instinctively trcmble but
in point of beautiful grandeur, this is comparatiyIy
trifing, compared with the view obtained from a
locomotive, on the bridge sixty feet higher--the
railroad bridge passing, as is known, directly over
the passenger bridge. A correspondent of the
Rochester american notices the first passage OF the
locomotive, as follows
At three o'clock, p. NJ, the locomotive London"
of the Great Western Railway, having on board
Mr.. Roebling, the writer, and seven or eight others
started from the station in Elgin, Canada, ana ma
the cheering of the multitude, proceeded to the
centre of the bridge, where it was stopped, and
three times three cheers were given for John "A.
Roebling, who stood c%anopied by the stars ard
stripes, and the royal cross of st. George.
Then with a deafning whistle, as a wild cry oil
exultation that reverberatcd through the rlfted
chasms and along the boiling waters OF the
Niagara below, and booming up into azure heaven,
vixen the London" moved over to the American
side, where it was greeted in like manner with
loud huzzas of the multitude on shore. On retur-
ming to the Canada side and making another trip,
every fear seemed to have left even the most timid,
and both engine and tender seemed 70 be a strug-
glirg mass Of human beings, each clinging in the
excitement, wherever they could get a fOot-hold.
The engine and its load, on this occasion, may
be safely set down at thirty (30) tons, and yet
il 0 ,casioned in its passage no more perceptable mo.
ton in the bridge than an ordinary wagon and
team. During his second trip, Roebling, with
carefully adjusted instruments, ascertained that
the total DETECTION at the centre, caused by the
engine and load at that point, was exactly three
inches.
The Buffalo Express gives the following stats
tics Of the bridge:
Length of span from center to center OF towers
500 feet hight Of towers above the rock on the
American side, IS feet ditto on the Canada side

Congress only passed two internal improvement
bills one for removing distractions from the Sa-
yannah river, and the other for deepening the St.
Clair Flats. The President approved the former
and pocketed the latter, probably because one was
in a free, and tie other in a slave State. Every
body knows Low much Inconvenience and damage
was suffered on account of the shallowness Of the
water in Lake st. Clair, but did any BODY ont Of

THE RoYAL WELSH GoAr.-Tho celebrated
snow-whitc goat presented by her majesty to the
twenty-third Royal Welsh Fusiliers is dead. After
weathering the campaign in Bulgaria, and march
ing proudly at the head of his regiment from Kali
anita Bay to Sebastapol, he has at last fallen
without wearing the Alma medal he had earned
on the way. His stately demeanor and reverend
beard made him a prominent feature in the APP
pearance Of the regiment as it moved along, and
the gap left by his absence will force a recollection
of the fine animal upon the memory of every one
familiar with the gallant twenty-third. He had
been hutted and every care had been taken to pro-
tect him against the exposure and inclement
weather, but all this attention was unavailing, and
he died on the Goth ultimo, 'much regretted by a
numerous circle"

DEAN SwIFT'S LOAN FUND.-Inyerness is rich in
Friendly Societies. which tend to encourage pro-
yident habits among the working classes. Among
other schemes for the anne object, Dean Swift in
stituted in Dublin n fund for granting small loans
to such industrious artizans and tradcsmen who
could find security for repaying the loan by small
weekly instruments; but insisted upon punctuality
in those repayments his object being to awaken
the needy to the advantages Of habits of regular
economy. Many families of considerable respect.
ability in Dublin, it is hOnorably reported, owed
the rise Of their prosperity 10 assistance derived
from this small fund. In the management of the
Deans loan fund ludicrous anecdotes are related,
as arising from the singularity of Swifts feelings.
and the low humOr q the inferior Irish. One old
woman positively refused payment, because, as
she said, the m oney had not luck with her, since
she had dealt with the Church and she became so
yociferous in her complaints, that the Dean relin-
quished his claim, fearing, as he said, she would
institute an action against him for damages for
having lent her the money that had brought her
so many mishaps. On another occasion a person
it is said, desired to borrow a mall sum, and on
being asked by Swift whom h c proposed as his Sc
curity, he replied he had none to olfor, excepting
his faith in his Redeemer. The Dean accented the
security, and, with all fOrmality, made the entry
accordingly. swift subsequently declared that
none Of his debtors were more ~punctual than this
man.-MrerHesS Courier.

AGE OF OvsrERs.-A London oyster-man can
tell the ages of his flock to a nicely. The age of
an oyster is not to be found out by looking into its
mouth. 1t bears its years upon its back. Every
body who has handled an oystor-shell must have
observed that it seemed as if composed of success
sive layers of plates overlapping each other. These
are technically termed Shoots, " and each of them
marks a years growth so that, by counting
them We can determine at a glance the year when
the creature came into the world. Up to the time
of its maturity, the shoots are regular aud sue
cessive; but after that time they become irregular,
and are piled one over the other, so that the shell
becomes more and more thickened and bulky.
Judging from the great thickness to which some
ovster-shells have attained, this mollusc is capable,
if left to its natural changes unmolested, Of attain
ing a patriarchal longevity.

TO YOUNG MEN.

We extract the following beautiful paragraph from
the BlccIlIur3ate Address lately delivered before
the Graduating Glass of Rutgers College, by the
lion. Theodore Frelinghuyson, and commend it to
the perusal of the young:
Resolve to do something useful, honorable, duti-
full, and do it heartily. Ropel the thought that
you can, and therefore may. live above labor, and
without work. Among the most pitiful objects in
society, is the man whose mind has been trained
by the d~icipline of education-who has learned
how to think, and the value of his mortal powers,
and with all these noble faculties cultivated and
prepared for an honorable activity, ignobly sits
down to do nothing and, of course to be nothing
with no influence Of the public mind-with no
interest in the concerns of his country or even his
neighborhood,-to be regarded as a dronc, without
object or character, with no hand to lift and with
with no effort to put forth to help the right or defeat
the wrong. Who can think with any calmness of
such a miserable career? And however it may be
with you in active enterprise, never permit your
influence to go in hostility to the cause of truth
and virtue.-So live, rhat with the Chistian poet,
you may truthfully say that
"If your country stand not by your skill,
Atleast your follies have not wrought herfall."
