Bad writerjj cannot write well, withoi;t
more than usual deliberation and delay, and
this is the great cause of their continuing
to scrawl. We wish it were possible to
convince them that it is as easy to form
characters correctly, as incorrectly, and
that the most distinct and legible hand i.s
witten by some persons, with as much tacili-
ty as they themselves display.

ing the appcarance of communications re

A miserable scrawl, never to be decyphered
but by the study of the contcxt, filled with
interlineations and blots, and the nice ad
justment of points and capitals totally neg-
loctcd, is metamorphosed by that magical
machine, the Press, into the perfection of
beauty, regularity and accuracy. It is like
the form of an edifice, rising at the incanta

Ej-traordinary Occurrencc.—Mr. Joshu»
Hempstead, a respectable citizen of New
London, Connecticut, an acquaintance of
ours, has been so blind for 10 years past, as
scarcely to discern the ditference between
day and night. Being of an industrious ha
bit, it was his practice to be led into the
field to assist in hoeing his com and pota
toes. A few weeks since, while at work,
ho placed, as usual, his statf in the centre
of a hill of corn, as a guide ; when stixiping
with a quick motion, the top of the statf
struck his eyebrow a violent blow', and
glanced over the eye, producing a severe
pjiin. Immediately an intense light broke
in II,ion the organ of sight, of every color
of the bow, “ a new heaven and an earth,”
were presented to his view, and he imme
diately hastened home alone. l>earing the
joyful tidings to his astonished and happy
family. His eye has not l>een intlained,
and he continues able to read a large type,
and to distinguish objects at the distance
of a miie, with a vision nearly equal to per
fect sight.—Xew London Gaz.
