Ijf^htning'Roda In the Aiiicricau
touriul of Science and Arts for June, we
^,.,1 a valuable essay on the use and con-
triiction of lightning-rods, which was
eaJ l>y Dr. Van Rensselaer before the
,,yceum of Natural History, in New-
Vark. A brief abstract of it will be in-
• rcsti’Jg at this season of the year, when
. little precaution would prevent the dis-
• uction of many lives and much proper*
y. particularly in our cities.
It has been fully proved by experi-
«,cnls, that the higher the rod is elevat-
I in the air, other things being equal,
greater will be its efficacy. It is
jiin-i to protect a circular space, whose
ucliiis is about twice that of the height
f ihc conductor. Hence we learn the
reason wh)% in so many cases, it affords
j , pro’.ection to the building to which
• is attached. 'It is placed at one end
fa house or otlier building, thirty or
j;ty Icet in length, and extends perhaps
ix or eight, feet above it; whereas'its
„osltion sliuuld be nearly central, and
:'s elevation three times as great. Tlie
inosi advantagooiis form for the extrcnii-
is a very sharp cone placed perpen-
,;icularly. in Europe, particularly on
he coiiiiiKMit, it is constructed in this
laiincr; while in this country it usually
jiTiintes in three diverguig points. A
ol the top should be a conical
■.(■n) ol‘ 1)1 ass or coppr-r. gilded at its ex-
;vinity, or tci inljiutcd by a small needle
I'tiuin’.a or standard silver, two inches
nir. 'i'lir size of the stan^ nun»ely, the
,., t projecting above the roof, must de-
( ir.I ijii its length two and hall' inches
jiiare at the lower end being sutVicieut
r >.:i el' valion of thirty fe('t.
'i'iie extending iVoni the stem
) t!i‘.‘ground, should be an iron rod,
;-ief I'ourtlis of an inch square. If it is
) mu; !!, t'lrre is danger that the heat
I'tlie lighiiting. the in'ensity of wl.icli
j.nindsou its velocity, will dissijjate it,
):■ gi-t\itly .raise its temperutnre. It
o:ld !'e siipjioited parallel to the roof,
Ki'it six inrlies from it, by forked st^in-
’■.iDii?:, „hd ufi’er turning over the cornice
.ithnui touching it should be brouv^ht
'.own the wall, to which it should be
istenod by means of cramps. At the
)otto!n of the wall it should be ben.t at
ii,'ht angles, and carri»'d from tlie build-
twelve or fifteen feet. But as iron
niinmediate contact with moist earth,
ssocn co\erd with rust and in time des-
royed, let tliis part of the couductor be
irroundef! with charcoal. The conduct-
ir should tf'rminate in uater, orin moist
artli, by two or three branches. This
I'lVcs the flu id, a re/idy pasaauc to l/iegroimd,
!i which the efiiacy of the lightning-rod
hiofly depenps.
If a building contains any large masses
ofmatal, as slieets of copper or lead on
he roof, metal pipes and gutters, iron
traces. Sec. they must all be connected
'iih the lightning rod by bars of some-
hing less than half an inch scjuare ; with
out which precaution the lightning might
itrikc from the conductor to the metal,
othe injury of the building, and danger
'fits inhabitants.

TUESDAY, AUGUST 2, l82o.
Thomas Kcffin, Esq. of IlTlTsb^,'^^
has been appointed by the Governor and
Council, one of the Judges of the Superi
or Court, in the place of George iiadger,
Esq. resigned. Mr. Ruffin, we learn, has
accepted the appointment. He was here
tofore, it will be recollected, one of the
Judges of the Superior Court, but re
signed.
We observe in the last Carolinian, pro
posals for publishing a paper in the town
of Wilksborough, to be entitled, “ T//fi

Our correspondent “jlAv./or,” out of
whose communication the above scrap
was picked, has doubtless anticipated a
little—it is, however, a matter of no con
sequence—a mere lapsusjjennne, of which,
if we chose, we might I'l.rnish many much
incjre striking ex'amples, without a long
or a very distant search. But the answer
to the question more properly belongs to
‘‘Mentor and to him we leave it.
The accounts from all parts of the
state, in relation to the corn crops, are ve
ry encoura{>ing. In this quarter, with
some few exceptions, the crops of corn
are unusually promising. The season,
thus far, has been propitious, and we
have every, encouragement to expect an
abundant harvest. Cotton also looks
well, and promises a liberal reward to
the farmer. 7'he wheat croj)s, in some
parts of the country, suffiMed severely
from the rust, and in some instances they
were not cut, not being considered worth
the labor; but on the whole, the culti
vators of the soil have abundant cause
for gratitude, and little caiise for mur
muring or discontent.
It w'ill be seen from an article in this
week’s paper, that the heat has been ex
ceedingly oppressive at the north, and in
many instances it has been attended with
fatal consequences. In a small pond in
Rhode Island, in which the water was be
tween two and three feet in depth, all the
fish were suffocated by the excessive heat;
and hundreds of perch, pickerel, Sec.
some of them weighing a pound and a
half, were found floating on the surface,
and large quantities were taken from the
bottom, entirely lifeless. After this in
stance of the sun’s power of annoying the
finny tribe, who can say, that the poet,
when he broke out into the following
sublime strain, was dealing altogether in
impossibilities f—

l oss or THE SCnoONEK HERALD.
Captain Doane, of the schr. William,
arrived here on Frirlay eveningdast re
ports, that on the 'JOth nit. .40 miles
vSquth of cape Henry, he boarded the
wreck of the schr. Herald, (of Plymouth,
Mass.) bottom up, which had been scut
tled in two places—saw sveral casks of
Rice floating in the hold.
This vessel sailed from this port on
the 29th of May last, for a port in Mass
achusetts. It is probable that she was
capsized in the severe gale of the 3d of
June; Jc as tl.is is the only account of b.i*r
since the day of her sailing, it is feared
that all on board have perished. In ad
dition to her crew she had about thirty
pass'engers, mostly of ibat class of indus
trious persons who emigrate to the south
in the winter season, and after earning a
handsome sum, return in the summer
months to share their hard earnings with
their families. " Chas. Coiir.
A letter from Buenos Ayros,dated 1 Ith
May, received at New-York, states that
Monte Video was expected to be placed
in a state of siege on the 3d of that
month : on which evening the j)atriots
were only 6 miles distant, the guns of the
town of Candoras, 3 miles from Monte
Video, had been spiked,and the gai-rison
had arrived in the latter city, the gates of
w'hich were to be closed on that dav.
All the fine country of Banda Oriental,
stretching north-east frorn Buenos Ayi-es,
is up in arms, and determied to assert
its independence of Brazil.
At Buenos Ayres a most splendid ball
took place on the 15th February. The
Consuladt) was illuminated withveriega-
ted lamjjs, representing the names of
Washington, Bolivar, and Sucre. The
Ball-room, 45 feet square, was most
niagnificently planned and adorned, a-
liove seven hundred of the most respecta
ble inhabitants being present. Lilierty,
with the emblems of the United Stales
on the right, and Britannia on the left,
supporting the genius of South America,
formed the subject of one of the trans
parencies. ’I'he dancing commenced at
10 o’clock, and the supper was serveil at
2 in the mornig. The number of ladies
present was about 250.

A cotton shawl, inanu!actured from
the gi'owth of their country, has been re
ceived at Baltimore. It consists of five
pieces, woven two yards in length, and
six inches in width, sewn together, and
is considered a favoralile specimen of
arts yet in their infancy among that rude
pe(jple. Cotton, of the quality of which
this shawl is manufactured, is said to
grow in abundance over a tract of coun
try extending over forty degrees of lati

ASCENT OF AN jF.ltONAUT AT NEW-
YOKK.
NKW-YOUK, JULY 11.—Ml’. Robcrtson
made his promised ascent in a balloon
from Castle Garden on Saturday, to the
great gratilication of ibe many thoi.sands
who witnessed the performance. By an
error in iilling the balloon, the ascent
was delayed about lialf an hour too late,
or it would jjrobably have !>een one ofi
the handsomest ever seen, 'i'be ballof.n j
began to rise just at dusk, and rose quite j
slow at first. As soon as it was above
the garden walls, the iEronaut threw out
some of his ballast, took a graceful leave
of the comjiany, and then arose more
rapidly amidst the shouts of the multi
tude. 'I'he wind was from the westward,
and took him in a direction over luarly
the whole length of the city, so as to be
visible to nearly every inhabitant—in the
lower part he skimmed apparently about
50 feet above the tops of the chimneys,
and continued to rise so long as he was
seen, when the balloon apperaed like a
small black spot high in the horizod.—
It was visible about seventeen minutes,
and did not appear then to have begun
to descend. Tire darkness obscured fur
ther view.
'i’he jEronant, we are happy to state,
alighted in safety in a corn held on the
farm of Mr. Abraham Remsen, at New

published in the Jmerican Traveller, a x\tv/
semi-weekly paper, gives a list of sixty-
eight which take their departue from
Boston. Many persons are now alive
who remember the time when there were
only two lines of stages from Boston—
one to Salem and Portsmouth ; the other
to j)rovidence ; and when \.\^p p;rent mail
was carried on horse back, one week by
Mr. Hydk, and the next by INlr. Aoams.
Of those now running, four leave Boston
every day, twenty-three every day except
Sundays, thirty-four tiiiee times a week,
one live times a week, one four times,
and t hree twice,makiug in all two hundred
and eighty-three departures every week-
Twenty-six stages lead oui of the State,

which depart tliree times a week, mak
ing too every week. Four others which
go six times a week, thirteen three times
a week, and one twice a week, go vari
ous distances, from twenty to one hun
dred miles—and the remander go to the
neighboring towns, inclutling six daily
to Salem, and two to Cambridge. Most
of these stages ^are handsome and con

and many of them, when the roads are
heavy, have six horses.—I’he punctuali

“ The Chancellor of the Exchequer
said, that the plan was not so fair as it
appeared to be. Some of the Judges iit
the succession profited larf^ely by the sale
of the offices under them; withotiiers, none
fell vacant to sell during their whole pub
lic life. 'I'he present Chief Justice has
as yet made nothing of bis offices, f^c.”
I was aware that this was the fact, but
had no idea that it would be thus public
ly alluih'd to, without producing some an
imadversion. On the contrary, not one
of the most rigid of the reformers, not
‘ven Mr. Hume, made the least remark
upon tile sale of judicial offices by the
Chiel Justice ; and although the debate
is recorded in one of the most radical of
the l'.nglish Journals, the Editor does not
seem to be aware of there being any im
propriety in this system of venality.
