The case as staled by the Journal shews remarkable temerity on the part of the persons concern edand the result is fraught wilh profitable warning : It appears that a large hollow iron shaft for a water wheel was cast some months since at the foundry ol David P. Kenyon, in uelvwere : winch . proving ueiecuve, was removed to a hollow about a quaiter of a ipilp from ihe village for the purpose of being burst to pieces with powder, in order lhai the fragments migltlbe melted down and east over. This was attempted on Friday after noon. Mr. K. and some ofhis workmen charged it with several pounds ol powder and forced in an iron ball weighing some 28 lbs., by the side of which they drove in a large iron wedge, supposing that when ihe powder should be exploded ihe hall would be forced along the wedge, until becoming obstructed, the expansive force of the pow der would burst the shaft asunder. - Having an idea that the ball could possibly escape, they ' were careless, add in the opinion of most persons, blameably cateless, of the di rection in which the cylindrical shaft was pointed. As it happened it was aimed to ward, the village. The match was applied; an explosion followed. But instead- of burst ing the shaft, the ball and wedge were forc ed out with irresistible violence, the ball be ing hurled in the direction of Mr. Craig . Hotel. In its loute it passed near the head tf ne HTrefrereone-h "Hi' in soluliijj; 'flii .haft '; .truck tlie earth in the street south of the Court House, near whore some boy. were playing; thence planned upward, passed through the roof of Ihe ehr d in the rear of Mr. Craig's premises; dasheu through a window in the second sto ry nf the house, through the partition which seperates the back and front rooms, forced iu way out through the front of Ihe house, and fell to the ground a few rods distant. Near where it fell some pei.on. were pass ing, and some children were playing, but none of them was injured. In the front room through which the ball passed, .George VV. Smyth, Esq., hi. lady, and a young lady, were sitting at the lime. The ball w ent a little lo the frout of Mr. Smyth, and directly over the head of Mrs. Smyth, missing her by only a few inches, - ahe bad just resum ed her seal, having the minute before been standing in point blank range of the shot, which, would certainly have dashed her lo pieces. As it was, her head ws. covered with dust anil fragment' of the .nattered wall, and she was .tunned with the concus sion of the' air, which was so great as to force out several pane, of g'nts from the win dow near her.

Parents are not aware of the vast we say with confidence the vast imparlance of a newspaper in a family of children. We have made the remark before and we repeal it, that take two families of children equally smart, and both going to the same school ; let ono of them have the free use of the newspapers, and let the oilier be deprived of the use of it, and it would ex cite astonishment to mark the difference be tween them. Full one half, and an impor tant half of education, as il respects the bu siness of the world, and the ability to rise and make one's self respectable in il is de rived from newspapers. What parent would not wish hi. children respectable ? Who would bofyvilling to have his neighbor's children more intelligent than his own ? and yet how trifliug is the sum a paper costs ! It ia'even in these hard limes almolutuiy con temptible in amount, and no man ever felt it, except in its beneficial consequences, who paid the subscription regularly once a year. JYilil Orange Grove- Nothing can be more gladdening to the traveller when pass ing through the uninhabited woods of East Florida, than the wild orange groves which he sometimes meets with. As I approached them the rich perfumes of the blossoms, the golden hue of the fruits, that hung on every twig, and lay scattered on the ground, the deep green of the glossy leaves, never failed to groduce the most pleasing cflectoii my mind. No a branch has suffered from the pruning knife, and the graceful hform of the tree tetains the elegance it received from na tnre. Raising their tops into the open air, they allow the uppeimost blossoms and fruits to receive the unbrukrn ray of the sun. which nneniiuht bn teiunted lo ihillk Jfroiri fruit 1 1 fruiti so rich and batinj are all. The pulp of these fruits qncnclie. yOur thirst at once, and" the very air yon breathe refreshens and revigomtes yon. 1 have passed through groves' of these orange trees full a mile in length. This occurence js a sure indication of good land, which iri the south-eastern portion 'of that country is ra ther scarce. The Scminoles. and poor squat ters, feed their horses, on oranges, which these animals seem lo eat with much relish. The immediate vicinity of a wild orange grove is of some importance to the planters, who have the fruits collected and squeezed in a horse mill. The juice is barrelled and sent lo different markets, beine, in request as an ingredient in cooling drinks. The straight young shoots are cut and shipped iri bundles, to be used as walking sticks. Women1 Ixtve of Tloicer. In al) conn tries women love flowers; iu all countries they form nosegays of them; but it is only in the bosom of plenty that they conceive the idea of embellishing their dwellings wilh them. '1 ha culuvation of flower, amoug the peasantry indicates a revolution in all ' their feelings. It is a delicate pleasure, which makes ite way tlvroug'i coarse organs; il is tlie sense ol the beaiilil.il, a faculty of ; the soul which is awakened Man, then. undesrtand. that there is in the gift, of na ture, a something more than is necessary for existence; colours, forms, odours, are per ceived for the first time, and these charming objects; have at last spectators. Those who have travelled in the country can testify that a rose tree under the window, a honey suckle round the door of cottage, are always a good omen to the tired traveller. The hand which cultivates flowers, is not closed to the supplications of the pooi, or the want of a stranger. THE ABOR1GNES. Col. Thomas -McKenhcy, who delivered a discourse recently in Portland, Maine, on, the oiigin of the North American Indians, holds that they are of Tartar origin; that they found this country peopled on their :mival, and in ihcir march gradually exterminated the original possessor, of ihe soil. To prove these position, he cited Ledyard's personal experience among the Tartars, and point, out a largo number of identities between the two yace. in their Crania, their habits, tempers, and domestic institutions. To sustain the Utter position, he point, to the well contrived, well-.itn.aied, ami vvi-ii-iuiiii loritncation. to oe iounu stretching from th, 1 wiJ fortified "camp., indeed, with ba.,ion., .n-1 gle. and curtains-gates, covered wav..
