I ' Blsr Ships. A every body is talking 0f ihe Bi j Ship," and many believe that none so big was ever before heard of, it may occasion some surprise to know, that our big ship is but a sraill affair, in comparison with some that were constructed more than 2000 years a po. Ptolemy Philopater built n ship that, i: is said, at a (distance looked like a float ing mountain or island, and on nearer view, like a prodigious castle on the ocean. She was 280 cubits, or four-hundred and twenty feet long, with a breadth and height in proportion. She carried 400 rowers, 400 sailors, and 3000 soldiers. The sirne king built another ship to sail on the Nile, which was 330 feet long. But Hiero, king of Syracu3e surpassed Ptolemy in naval architecture. Under the din-ciion of Archimedes, he built a ship, in the structure of which" wood enough was employed tn make fifty galleys. It had all the vatious apartments of a plare, such as banquetting rooms, galleries, gar dens, fiah ponds, stables, mills, baths, and a temple of Venus. The floors were all in laid, and represented, in various colors, the stories of Homer's Iliad. The ceil ings, windows, and nil other parts were fi'iished with wonderful nrt, and embel lished with all kinds of ornamenl3. There was a spacious gymnasium, a pfacc of ex ercise, and water was conveyed to the gar den by pipes. The floor of the temple of Venus was inlaid with' agates and other sb as ; the inside lined with cvnres3 wood, 1 i 1 i a . '. . and tne winnows adorned with paintings and -small statues. There was likewise a library. The vessel was adorned on all sidt-s with fine paintings. It had twenty benches of oars, and was ent oinnassed with an iron rampart ; eight towers, with wall and . bulwark, furnished with ma chines of war, one of which threw a stone of 300 pounds, the space of half a mile.

Grammarians have divided words into various classes, called parts of speech, an arrangement that has some advantages, and also some inconveniences. The ad vantages are the same that we derive fiom classification in all sciences, where we have a great number of objects which tr wish lo have some ready means of rear ing to: the disadvantages -are. that the names of the puts of speech have tf:en been anobst-icl" to our right imdcriLmding of the true nn'ire end meaning of the wordsthemscl.es. For ojr present pur pose it will be enough to speak ol nouns, adjectives, and retb ; or, i( tur readers prefer it, we will use tlit?lerm non a including that tf adiettn e. A noun, as the word imports, is a name fur something, whether it be a thing im mediately op-n to the examination ol tho senses, or an object which we contemplate only by the mind. We propose to distri bute some of these nouns into classes, in order that by a comparison their mctrt ings may be better understood. Nouns in er. Work-er. Hunter. Kill-er. Speik-er. Slay-er. Carrier. The meaning of this termination In ft i3 obvious; it expresses the do-rr'oi a thing. These words in er may be con sidered as formed bv adding the termina tion erto such wnrtfs as uork, kill, carryt &c. In Ihe last instance it will be obser ved that the y is changed u.toan i in the new word. There are some words iri er which do not signify a do-er, S'ich as murder, slaughter, laughter. But we have the word murdtr-er, and we might have such a word as slaughter er : the word laugh er is formed regularly -from the word laugh. , . This termination er is found in the Oer man language in th same Sense; and also in the Iatin and Grek, where the termination or, with the same significt tion, is also of fnqucnt occurrence. Nouns in ir. Act-or. Prosccut-on Doit-or. Orator. Visitor. Curat-or. We believe these- words in or are all derived from the Latin, while the u orda in er are genuine Saxon. Visit vr, and other words of the class, are sometimes written vitil-er but it would perhaps b rick, with her three children, .Edward, Margaret Ann and Caroline. Said Betsey isot dark com paction, low stature, speaks very slow, and has a downcast look ; her children are Mulattocs, for- merlythe propertyof Charles Nixon. Her young est is an infant. The above reward will be given on her delive ry to ine.or being lodged in any jail where I can get her and her children. : W. A. L ANG DON. June 30th, 1837. 25 t-f.
