and he had been known to shoulder readi-
ly cannon weighing eleven hundred
pounds. He could carry man of 100
pounds on his right arm, and lit him up
and down in the air, as ordinary people
sport with children. His wife was wo-
man of medium size, but he could easily
bear her about the room at arms length,
and could carry her up and down stairs or
one arm. He would lift barrel of cider
by the chimes, and take long draughts
from the bung without any apparent exer-
ton; but it must not be supposed from
this latter feat that he was an intemperate
man; on the contrary, he was universally
respected for his abstemious and frugal
habits Although uneducatcd, he was
person of strong natural sense, and of
kind, amiable disposition-itis is said that his
strength was never used to the injury of
any one except for self defence, or fer the

MISCELLANEOUS,
Peter Francisco.

The present century has known many
men of extraordinary physical strength,
among whom we may cite WilIam Thomp-
son of Chicago, who lately won prize of
$500 for lifting no less a weight than 2106
pounds; Dr. Winship, who can shoulder
219 pound barrel of -four; Prof Day, of
Florida, once fined $500 by the circuit
court of Lauderdale county, for throwing
a Mustang pony and his rider over ten
rail fence; and Thomas Topham, said to
be the strongest man in modern England
The latter has performed, in public, fcats
evincing an almost superhuman siren 9Th !;
such as rolling up pewter dish of seven
pounds as a man rolls up sheet of paper;
holding n pewter quart 1T arms length,
and squeezing the sides together like an
eggshell; and lifting two hundred weight
with his little finger, and moving it gently
over his head On one occasion he broke
a rope fastened to the floor, that would sus-
tain twenty hundred weight, and lifted an
oak table six feet long with his teeth,
though half hundred weight was attach
ed to it. He also struck round bar of
iron, one inch in diameter, against his ma
ked arm, and at one stroke, bent it like a
bow; and his head being placed on one
chair and his feet on another, he held
upon his body four heavy men whom he
heaved at pleasure.
None of these modern Simpsons, howev-
er, have earned so extended a fame as that
giant of the Western Hemisphere, Peter
Francisco. Having lived in the stormy
days of the Revolution, and performed
deeds of extraordinary valor as soldier,
he has been looked upon by many as a
hero, and his name used as synonym for
| bodily vigor and manly endurance.
He was born in Portugal, subsequently
taken to ireland, and while yet boy
brought by sea captain to this country.
On the breaking out of the Revolution, he
| Joined the army and was in active service
during the whole contest.
Such was his strength and personal
bravery that no enemy could resist him. =
He welded sword, the blade of which
was five feet in length as though it had
been feather, and every one who came
in contact with him paid the forfeit of his
life. At Stony Point he was one of the
forlorR hope which was advanced to cut
away the abattis, and next to Major Gibbon
was the first man to enter the works. Al
Brandywine and Monmouth he exhibited
the most fearless bravery, and nothing but
his inability to write prevented his promo
tion to a commission Transferred to th'
South, he took part in most Of the engage
ments in that section, and more than onc'
exhibited, in striking manner, his re
markable self-confdence and courage.
! On one occasion he defended himsel
successfully, by strategy aud prowess
against nine British troopers; and durin
an attack upon dwelling near which h
was resting, he killed two assailants, so
dier and mounted dragoon, who cam
suddenly upon him.
Francisco possessed finely develops
frame. He was six feet one inch in heigh

What's the use of always fretting,
At the trials we shall find
Ever strewn along our pathway,
Travel on, and Never 3iind.'
Travel onward, working, hoping,
Cast no lingering glance behind
At the trials once encountered.
Look ahead, and Never Mind.
What is past is past forever,
Let all fretting be resigned,
1t will never help the matter,
Do your best, and Never Mind
And if tkose who might befriend you,
Whom the ties of Nature bind,
Should refuse to do their duty,
Look to Heaven. and Never Mind,
Friendly words are often spoken,
When the feelings are unklnd,
Take them for their real value,
Pass them by, and Never Mind
Fate may threaten, clouds may lower,
Enemies may be combined,
II your trust III God is steadfast,
lie will help you, Never Mind
