That thought, like the scattered seed, will not be lost. Good men may repeat it years after you are in heaven. It may strengthen the resolution of thousands thou sands of minds it may influence. Truth is nev. er lost. Good thoughts are as indistructible as our eternal hills. Husband them with care, write them out, print them, and they will never die. IN consequence of the very great popularity which these wheels have attained by the use of nearly 4000 of them in different parts of the country, the subscribers have sold about 100 Rights in North Carolina, thirty of which are in full and successful operation in Cumberland county. When properly introduced, they nearly double the value of the-mill, and in quantity of work generally far exceed the1 most sanguine expectations of the owners, many of whom are gentlemen distinguished for their sci ence and practical skill, who have attested to the value of this improvement. The wheels are more durable, and more easily kept in order, when properly put to gether, than the common flutter wheel. They will save one-third of theiwater.and run well in back water when thre is a head1 above. The speed of the saw is increas ed to more than double the strokes per minute. The price of an individual right for one pair of wheels, is 850. ' We refer, amog others, to the following gentlemen, some of whom. had the wheels in operation 12 months or more, and from many of whom we have received certi ficates highly approving of these wheels, and stating that their saws, with this improvement, cut 2500, 3000, 3500, afid even as high 9 5000 feet a day, according to the head of water. ! - Fish !

An anecdote has been related to us ol an in cident in camp life, in which one of out volun teers was made the victim of a practical joke, a descnption of jesting to which he is not at all partial, and which he considers no joke!. Al though 44 ranking " a corporal by many gfades, the hero nf-this camp tale, fromi his not being ot grenadier size, and lrom his peculiar man ner, has invariably been dubbed the "corporal," often "the little corporal,'' a obsignation of which he ought to be proud, for the greatest general that ever led a conquering army ob tained that sobriquet. The corporal's rank made it incumbent upon him to be mounted, and ac cordingly he obtained a very large sort ani mal with an uncommon long tail; what! might be termed 44 all sorts of a horse." A 6hojrttime ago a regimental parade was ordered, and when the staff appeared, to the surprise of all except a few choice spirits, the little corporal apjpeared on foot. "How is this I" said the Colonel 44 Why are you not mounted, sir ?
