towird the remaining bolt, (or upon them depend,
ed tbe masts, and upon tbe mast depended the
safety 4 the ship; for, with one foot ol canvass

Onward plunged the over laden frigate, and at
every surge she seemed bent upon making tbe deep
tbe sailor's grave, and ber live-oak sides bis coffin
of florv. She had been fitted out at Boston when
the thermon eter was brlow tero. Her shrouds, of
court, therefore, slackened at every strain, and
her unwieldy masts (fur site bad those dotigoed for
the frignte Cumberland, I much larger thip,)
teemed ready to jump out of her. And now, while

At length the light bore upon our quarter, and

During this tune all were silent, each .otfieer and
man was at his post, and the bearing and counten
ance ol the captain teemed to give encouragement
to every person on board. With t bare possibility
of saving the sliip and those on board, he relied on
his nautical skill and' courage, and by carrying the
mainsail, which in any other situation would have
been considered suicidal, ht weathered the lee tkqre,

It has been ascertained beyond the possibility
of doubt that the cannot see a ray of light, cannot

in darkness ami itilthcssrai profound as that of a

and aweef sounds, and pleasant odors, she has no
conception; nevertheless, she teems at happy and
playful as a bird or a lamb; and the employment

She never teems to repine, but hat all Ihe buoyan
cy and gaietv of childhood ; She.it fond of fun
and frolic, and when playuig with the rest ot the
children, ber thrill laugh sound loudest of tbe
groupe. ,
Wben left alone, she peema very happy if the
bat her knittmir or tewmit. aud will busy her
elf for bourn. If the bta aoaeeupaiio the vr
demly amusea herself by imaginary dialogue, or
recalling put impressions; the counts with her
fingers dr spells out names of thinir which the
has recently learned, in tho manual alphabet ot
the deaf mute. In thi lonely telf communion
site re atoua, feaocu, and argue. If she tpehr a"
word wrong with Ihe DngeraoT ber right hand,
she instantly strikes it with ber left, then the patt

During the year the hat attained great dexter
ity in tbe use of the manual alphabet of the deaf

thoto accustomed to this language, can follow with

But wonderful at ia the rapidity with which the

ease knd accuracy with which he read the word
thut written by another, grasping their hand in
ber'ti and following" very movement oflheir fii
ger, as letter after letter convey their meaning
to her mind. It i in this way that she conver.
ses with her blind play mate, tnd nothing can
more forcibly thow Ihe power of mind in forcing
matter to it purpose,' than a meeting between
them. For if great talent and tkill are necessary
for Iwo pantomimes to paint their thought and
feeling by the movement of the body, and tbe
expression of tbe countenance, how much greater
the difficulty when darkness throudt tbeiu both,
and the one can bear no sound !

own age, and especially if one of her favorite,
there it instantly a bright stnile of recognition,
an inter-twining of arms a grasping of bands
and a swift telegraphing upon tbe tiny fingers,
whose rapid evolutions convey the thoughts and
footings from-ihe outposts of otto mind to Ihose of
-the oilier. There are questions and answers ex
changes of joy or Borrow there are kbtingt and

LOOK UP.
- An old man on. Long Island had occasion some
veara ago to lay up tome money. Being exceed
ingly afraid that he would lose it if be trusted bis
treasure with any of hi friends he concluded at
last that he would bury it. Accordingly be went
out into the woods one night, and selecting a large
tree, under which to make bis deposite, he dug a
- hole, reiuUy . looked. round him lo see if any ouo
wat near, buried bit money, replaced the eartb,
strewed tbe leavea over tbe spot, that it might ap
pear all was at usual, and returned lo tbe bouse.

It to happened that a fiiend of the old man had,
for thit purpose, climbed the very .tree, to which

to tee what theolii man would do, he remained per

..The old uiau performed a daily pilgrimtgu to the

' covered that it wis gone. His Iota almost turned
hie bead and broke his heart. He was ashamed to
have it known that he-wa stf Miserly at to bury
money, and therefore concealed hid toe. But it
weighed deeply upon him, deprived biro of rest,
tnd bnaliy sunk hit ipinU to low, that in bit de
spondency he began to doubt bit hope, and to de
apair. A settled religioua melancholy followed,
and iu bis aliatrett k went to hit friend for counsel

er tome domestic troubiet bad not occasioned his
distrett or tome derangement in hit business but
not being abld to bring the old man to a voluntary
confession, he asked him directly if he had not met
with some heavy low of property. Thut cornered,
the old man wat compelled to loll the tola of hi kid
treasure, but was not willing to believe that that
bad any "connection with hit despondency. His

Haver failed to preserve an abundance Of ice lor our : r
tupplie. It is about 16 or I'd foel, and judging -from
recollection, for it ia now nearly half full, ia
alwut 18 feet deep., tt wat probably dujr down to
the tand or gravel, la walled like an ordinary cellar, -the

which art placed about 8 iochei apart and thia pro

it neceasary to be particular about. A the straw
it a non-conductor of calorie, and Ihe ice being
well imbedded therein, doea not melt in the warm '

mulberry, especially the more aVdical varieties of
the tree, will resist a very low degree of cold, pro

dampness; whereat they are very often ir.jured,
and sometime destroyed, by a comparatively mod

and giving rite lo an abundant deposition of frost,

Again, be observed, the health and welfare of 1
the silk worm, and the value'of it produce demand,
