THE WHIRLPOOL.
This grand and beautiful scene is nearly
three miles below the Falls of Niagara, and
four miles from the village of Lewiston.
Standing on the right bank of the Niaga
ra, two hundred and fifty feet above the
river, youbehold at a distance the advanc
ing waters; not placid and smooth, . but agi
tated, rushing, and roaring with deafening
pound, they hurry on. They come in all
their power, solitary and alone ; no vessel,
or work of man's formation, floats on the
raging torrent, no thing of life rides over
the resistless waves, or. floats on the mist
crowned billow. The majestic flood is
here more lonely and and mysterious than
the solitary ocean; for man'passes with com
parative security over the vasty deep, but
on these waters he is powerless, he moves
not, they rage in their solitude alone
forever, and man can only behold with
emotions of awe, and reverence, that
Almighty Power who, weighs the hills in
a balance, and holds the 'waters of the
ocean in the hollow of his hand.
Still forward rushes the resistless flood,
and all that moves thereinj is peeled' and
trashed. If for a moment an object is be
held, swiftly it passes the1 hollow of the
crested waves, rises amid the feathery mist,
and b in an instant plunged below. It is
for some timo emerged from sight, and if
it again appears,it lies crushed and dismem
bered. The view widens opposite to. the
spectator, and on the Canada side a counter
current, equal to the main channel, rushes
up the stream. A large basin of water is
presented to the eyer of trO rapt spectator.
lie gees the great Niagara pouring therein
its mighty flood, and driving with irresisti
ble impetuosity against the Canada shore,
and the counter current with equal power,
passing ih an opposite direction ; and with
absorbing interest he beholds, between the
contending waters, the deep cngulphing ed
dies and the yawning whirlpool. There
he views the wrecks of . the falls, all that
passes down the river, huge masses of
timber, dismembered trees, sometimes the
fragments cf vessels and water craft. They
ffo round and round, and gradually ap
proach the centr, till they are drawn in,
and swallowed up in the deep vortex of the
stream. After a while they are propelled
upward at a distant point, and again renew
their circuit, and are again drawn below.
Sometimes trees and logs are ejected up
with so much violence, as to raise one end
several feet out of the water. The eye, of
the beholder seems to take in the whole
scene, and no opening or outlet for this
vast flood of water, constantly accumulat
ing, is observed. Inquiry is made of the
guide who conducts him a few paces to the
north, and at the turnof a point near the
brink of the precipice, directs his attention
beneath. There he beholds a small, dark
land heavy stream, like some deep and nar
i row mountain torrent, but unlike the great
Niagara. For some moments the illusion
is complete, the whirlpool and its foaming
eddies, its deep gulfs and circling waves is
forgot, and the mind is seized with enthusi
asm and delight at this unexpected and?
ncwlv discovered 'scene. lie advances,
the reality is: discovered ; this is indeed the

prison house. Still the charm is not dis
solved, the great river is contracted to a
very span ; the opposite shore of Canada is
within a stone's throw, and the deep waters
; are literally poured out from the broad basin
j of the whirlpool. The curious traveller,
with mind unsated with the beauties and
wonders of natnre, descends the precipitous
bank, where the scene can be examined
mote in detail, and give to the imagination
additional satisfaction. When the waters
are at their usual height the visitor can, at
the point where the river disgorges itself
from the whirlpool, walk out from the slo
ping bank, on a smooth projecting rock, to
the very verge .of the disgorging torrent. ?
He can then, if his nerves are steady, din

his hands, or bathe his feet, in the deep
green impetuous flood that rushes past; but
to do either he must be firm, or at behold
ing the advancing waters, hearing their as
tounding roar, and glancing at the deceitful
current as it passes, the head may become
dizzy, and like the unfortunate Francis Ab
bot, ho may fall a victim to the fascination
f the troubled waters of .Niagara. The
"lore wary visitor wil retreat a few rods,
and try his strength to throw a stone to tha
Canada shore a feat done by the sinewy
8ns of the farmers of Niagara.

ventured in but a short distsnee, that it was
very dark, and that he did not like to go in
alone. The same person observed that near
the cave he found many valuable mineral
specimens, and the spot not having been
visited by travellers, he thought more min
erals were to be -picked up there than at
any other place. The whirlpool is also
visible on the Canada sido, but the view is
decidedly superior on the American, and
the whole scene is only inferior to the great
Niagara, but it is altogether of a different
character. At the outlet of the whirlpool
the banks of the Niagara approach each
other nearer than at any other point, and if a
bridge should ever be erected across the
Niasrara, this snot nature seems to have

Adventures ot a Wooden keg.
I am one of those unfortunate wights
who have found themselves obliged to call
on the carpenter, for the purpose of mend
ing their mortalVrt?ne. I was born com
plete, as sound as a pumpkin; with a pair
of sturdy limbs as ever kicked. I stumped
about merrily oivboth of them during my
youth, never dreaming that I should one
day be indebted for the same peripatetical
faculty to a stick of wood.
During the last war with Great Britain,
I served in our army on the frontier. I
was in many battles, but managed through
out nearly the whole of the conflict to keep
lead and cold iron out of me. I began to
think myself bullet proof but never was
a conjurer more mistaken, as I soon found
out at the battle of Plattsburg, by the help
of a cannon ball, which took off my leg
just below the knee. This happened in
the beginning of the action, and 1 fell into
the enemy's hands. We got the victory at
last, as is well known, aad when the Brit
ish retreated, I was carried by them along
with some of their own wounded. I was
duly reported by the American returns 'a-
mong the missing, and all my friends im
agined me dead.
After lying sometime in the British hos
pitals, I was sent to Montreal, where I met
with a very ingenious French machinist,
who fitted me with a new limb, so admi
rably constructed with springs and hinges,
that, after a short practice, I found myself
able to manage it with so much dexterity
that it passed with the world for a real bone
and flesh of my flesh. I was soon sent
home to Boston after the peace, and receiv
ed by my friends as one risen from the
ueau. l hey little imagined on seeing me i
safe and hearty, that I had one foot in the
grave.
Now, though I might have claimed and
received a pension for the loss of my leg.
W 1 1 . .
yet 1 resolved to keep the matter secret as
who would not? No one wishes to be
pitied for his wooden shins, when he can
have the credit of owning a pair of real live
stumpers. No mortal of my acquaintance
suspected that I had a sham leg, and I was re
solved to take no pains to divulge the secret,
but if I got a kick upon my wooden shin,
even to scratch whereit did not smart.
The pertinacity with which I have
stuck to this determination, has led me
into the oddest adventures. I was kicked
by a horse on the fictitious limb, and to the
astonishment of every body, walked home
after it, without so much inconvenience as
a sprained ancle. I was bitten by a mad
dog most furiously in the same place, and
every one prophecied that I should die,
bnt I got well of the bite and amazed them
all. A cart wheel run orer my foot and
jamed it into a cocked hat; no one but
admired the fortitude with which I bore
the pain. Walking home one cold day
with the doctor, I stepped with one foot
mid-leg deep in a puddle of water The
doctor was positive that I should take cold
in consequence of it, and I won a wager of
him by not coming off hoarse the next
morning to his utter astonishment.
But this unfeeling limb of mine has some
times brought me into awkward scrapes. I
shall never forget how supremely foolish I
felt one evening, when I had been ridicul
ing most unmercifully a certain foppish,
conceited, pragmatical fellow about the
town ; all this I did in the presence ol his
two sisters, whom I did notknow to be such,
and never imagined my friend Walter, who
sat next to me would let me run on in such
a strain without apprising me of the blunder
I was committing.
' Why you incomprehensible fellow,'
said he to me as soon as he came away,
'what the vengeanceaossessed you to-keep
on talking in that style when I was tread
ing upon your toe every instant to make
you stop ?" -
Once, indeed, I came very near being
detected, and the artifice by which I escap
ed detection had the strongest effect.
Who would believe the ghost of a wooden
leg could break off a match ?
trod in the dark on a defective part and mv
foot broke through. It was my wooden
leg, and in my endeavors to extricate it,
the unfortunate limb broke loose and fell in
to the cellar.
Here was a terrible awkward situation
for a fine gentleman to bciin. There was
no getting my leg out of iis limbo, in the
dark, and to apply for help would discover
me. Luckily I. had my walking stick, and
with the help of that, made shift to hobble
to my lodgings, where I arrived undiscov
ered, thanks to the lateness of the hour!
But the difficulty was not over. 1 had lost
my leg, and no one could make such anoth
er ; or, if it could be replaced, the thing
could not be e flee ted without delay of many
days, and the story would infallibly get
wind. What should I do ? I knew the
house into which my stray limb had slept,
but was not on the street. This was the
most unlucky circumstance of all here was
Joe Clark about, a person with whom I
was involved in a quarrel ; and was more
over an arrant busy-body. In short he
was no man to entrust with the secret of a
sham leg. -
, At last a thought struck me of a method
to get my leg and save my credit, for I saw
plainly that my leg must be had immedi
ately, or else the cat would be let out of the
bag. I thought of Beau Babbleton., ;ihe fop
pish fellow mentioned above, as a! person
age on whom I might. with some conscience,
play the tiick of fathering my lost limb
1 got myself into bad odour with his sisters
and) two or three score of their cossipping
female acquaintance by means of his fop
pery and the insensibility of my timber
fidencc to all their acquaintances ; and the
consequence was,. the greatest rout and stir
among the beau month that ever was in
Boston.
Miss Tiftaffety, whom Beau engaged to
marry, being his seventeenth flame, was
so much shocked at hearing the iutelliorence
that she called for hartshorn, and vowed
she would never see him again. The
match was therefore broken olf, for nobody
could persuade her the story was incorrect,
as she knew him to, be guilty of false whis
kers, and abuckram and a whalebone waist, 1
and a sham leg was a horse of the same
color. Beau was obliged to put up with
his ill luck, but he never could endure the
sight of any thing that reminded him of a
wooden leg afterwards. Even o this day
he never sees a person with a hitch in his
gait without a sio-h.
A. SUMMARY ACCOUNT OF THE FIRST DISCOVE
RY AND SETTLEMENT OF NORTH AMERICA.
Arranged in Chronological Order.
AN UN DEVELOP!" D GENIUS.
The difficulties in the way of an "unde
veloped genius," are thus soliloquised in
Ncal's "Charcoal Sketches."
"How," said he, "how is it I can't level
down my expressions to the comprehen
sions of the vulgar, or level up the vulgar
to a comprehension of rny expressions !
How is it I can't get the spigot out, so my
verses will run clear? I know what I mean
myself, but nobody else does, and the im
pudent editors say it's wasting room to print
what nobody understands. I've plenty "of
genius lots of it, for 1 often want to cut
my throat, and would have done it long
ago, only it hurts. I'm chock full of genius
and running over; for I hate all sorts of
work myself, and all sorts of people mean
enough to do it. I hate going to. bed. and
I hate getting nj). My conduct is very ec
centric and singular. I have the miserable
melancholies all the time, and I'm pretty
nearly always as cross as the devil, which

North America was discovered in the
reign of Henry VII., a period when the arts
and sciences had made very considerable
progress in Europe. Many of the first ad
venturers were men of genius and learning;,
and were careful to preserve authentic re
cords of such of their proceedings as' would
be interesting to posterity. These records
afford ample documents for American histo
rians. Perhaps no people on the globe can
trace the history of their origin and progress
with so much precision as the inhabitants
of North America ; particularly that part of
tnem who inhabit the territory of the Uni
ted Stales. '

him by means of the same intractable memb
ers. The plan was this, to send by a trusty
servant a note to Mr. Clackabout, request
ing the leg. m the name of Beau Babble
ton, by which means, I should get my limb
again without being suspected, and Beau
might account for the superfluity of shin
bones in bis own animal economy as well
as he was able.
The plan succeeded to admiration; and
much better than I looked for. For I had
the luck to see a darky passing under my
window in the morning, and him I sent oil
with the note. You must judge the sur
prise and astonishment of Mr. and Mrs.
Clackabout and his two sisters, as they sat
at breakfast, when they received the fol
lowing. " Mr. Babbleton's compliments to Mr
Clackabout, aud requests he will have the
goodness to despatch him his leg, by the
bearer; it will be found in the cellar. Mr.
B. hopes to be excused for stepping through
Mr. C's cellar door last evening."
; Nobody knew what to make of this
strange epistle at first. One thought it a
hoax, but on sending into the cellar to ex
amine, the leg was found sure enough, and
the breach in the cellar where the misstep
had been made. And then what a staring
pd wonderment there was among the
Clackabouts at the discovery of Beau Bab
bleton's artifice. Who would have thought
it? they all exclaimed a tip-top dandy,
n buck of the first water,m irresistible .crea
ture among the ladies ; and yet doing all
this with a wooden leg' Oh ! monstrous !
However, after a pretty close scrutiny of
this unfortunate limb, it was delivered to
Cuffy, who passed for Beau Babbleton's
servant, as no question was asked, and my
stray appendage brought me without any
discovery being made. Now I was Rich
ard himself again, but Beau Babbleton ab
solutely beside himself. Mr. Clackabout
chanced to meet him the same forenoon,
and wished him joy on the recovery of his
leg. Beau replied that his leg had never
been ill.
Not ill, to be sure,' said' Mr. C, but
terribly out of joint.'
'Out of joint ! out of joint, Sir! What
do you mean ?'
Oh, I don't mean that it was hurt in
breaking through the cellar door; indeed,
I believe it was sent in good order ; truly,
you walk very well with it- ono would
never suspect you.'
4 Never suspect me ! I don't understand
you. Pray what do you suspect me of?'
' Of getting the boot on the wrong foot,
for you need'nt think to mistify me. What!
brave it out in this fashion, when you iett it
in my cellar last night, and I sent it to you
this morning?'
Really, Mr. Clackabout, you talk like
a man who has lost his senses.'
Really Mr. Babbleton, your effrontery is
too much to bear. You will make a lame
piece of work of it, and get yourself into a
hobble. I advise you to show a little more
understanding. And with these punning
allusions to Beau's fancied infirmity, Mr.
Clackabout walked off.
Poor Babbleton was utterly confounded,
at being snubbed and brow-beaten in this
incomprehensible manner. But this was
cakes and gingerbread to what happened
afterwards, for the Miss Clackabouts kept
the secret of the Beau's wooden leg in the
customary way; that is, they lold it in con-
ever you touch it. When I condescend to
unbuzzum myself, for a little sympathy, to
folks of ornery intellect and comparisohed
to me I know very few people that ar'nt
ornery as to brains and pour forth the
feelings indigginus to a poetic soul, which
is always biling; they ludicrate my situa
tion, and say they don't know what the
deuce I'm driving at. Isn't genius always
served o' this fashion in the earth, as Ham
let, the boy after my own heart, says? And
when the slights of the world, and of the
printers, set me in a fine frenzy, and my
soul swells and swells, till it almost tears
the shirt off my buzzum, and even fractures
my dicky; when it expansuatcs and elevates
me above the common herd, they laugh a
gain, and tell me not to be pompious. The
poor pledians are worse than Russian scurls!
It is the fate of genius; it is his'n, or rather
her'n, to go through life with little svmpa
thyzatiou and less cash. Life's a field of
blackberry and raspberry bushes. Mean
people squat down and pick the fruit, no
matter how they black their fingers, while
genius, proud and perpendicular, strides
fiercely on, and gets nothing but scratches
and holes tore in his trousers."

CONSEQUENCES OF "THE DIVORCE.
FROM THE :,IADISOXIAX.
' QThc situation of the public money at this
time, scattered all over the United States by
the order of Mr. Secretary Woodbury, in
defiance of the public will and in direct a io
lation of a positive law of Congress.
Congress having five times rejected the
Sub Treasury scheme, which had for its ob
ject (among other tilings) the keeping of the
public money by Executive officers, ap
pointed by and liable at any moment to.be
lice, he confessed that he had been forced
to give himself up by the terrors of a guilty
conscience. Ever since I fled from the
house, said he, the corpse of that murdered
man has been by my side wherever I go
the spectre haunts me, and not for a single
moment can I shut my eyes against the
frightful apparition sooner than suffer as I
have done for the last few hours, let me be
hung I would rather face the gallows than
be tormented by the direful images of re
morse and guilt. Such, we are told, wras
the substance of his statement. Had he
listened to the warning of his friendly mon
itor, when the first step in crime was taken,
he might have escaped the horrors of un
availing regret, and the shame of an igno
minious death. N. O. Bulletin.
Mr. Win. B. Shepard's address before
the Literarv Societies of the University of
North Carolina is a very excellent produc
tion. It conveys the best scntinients, in a
natural ftyle, and is redolent of classical lit
erature. We welcome Mr. S. back again
from the boisterous contention of parties in
the House of Representatives to the quiet
halls of learning and the calm retreats of
private life. He shows in his address that
he turns with delight from the dusty high
road of politics, into the flowery paths of
science and learning. Alex. Gazette.
A Mississippi Jury. Reader, did you
ever'see a Mississippi plain, matter of debt
jury, about the close of court in fly season? j
If not, you are enlightened now so tar as to
know, that such a body is a remarkable
batch of fun and dignity. To illustrate, we
saw such, a jury this spring, in a certain
brick housemot far distant, stick pins into
each other to keep awake, and bet liquor on
who could spft tobacco juice the farthest
against a new plastered and neatly -whitewashed
wall together with various other
amusements, alike rational and beautiful.

that, when the banks resumed specie pay
mcnts, the depusitelaw of 183G would com
pel the Secretary to revoke his circular, is
sued shortly .after the bauks suspended, re
quiring the Receivers and Collectors to
keep the money, and that it would be 1 de
posited in bank to the credit of the Treasu
ry, as it had been previously. But what
must be the astonishment of Congress when
they meet? What must be the indignation
of the People of the" United States, when
they hear that the public money is scattered
over the country, in the hands of Receivers
and Collectors, and that not a single depos
itee bank has been selected, nor is it intend
ed; that one shall be selected !
Who can tell what these Receivers and
Collectors are doing with the public mo
ney? What is to prevent them from using
it? What check has the Government over
them under this beautiful financial system
of Mr. Secretary AVoodbury? They make
their own returns to the Treasury Depart
ment, and state what they please in them.
How can the Secretary know that the mo-
ney they represent to be in their hands is
actually there? 1 he banks under this sys
tern have nothing to do with the Govern
mcnt, and of course make no returns to it.
If the Collectors deposite the money in
bank, they have it placed there to their own
private credit, and can check for it at- any
time for their own private purposes. Under
the Deposite law of 1836, the Collectors
and Receivers were required to deposite
the revenue they collected in bank, every
has separated the publif money from.! all
sorts of safeguards over it. The Collectors
can at any time use the public money with
out the Government's knowing any thing
about it; and, if it shou!4 be misapplied or
embezzled, where is tle security ? The
Collector at New York collects, during the
year, about 12,000,000 dollars, and he
gives security in perhapp fifty or one hun-'-died
thousand dollars, ie penalty of his
bond !
The banks, under the deposite law, gave
any security that was required, besides the
security of the whole aniount of their capi
tals. The Government Svas perfectly se
cure, and will not lose by them a single
dollar, unless by onfe of the Secretary's
family banks at Boston.;
But this great invention of modern finance,
which is to immortalize its wise authors
"ihe separation of Bank and State" why,
what a perfect farce it is ! Is it supposed
that the People "are to be. eternally made the
dupes of humbugs, and to be deceived by
the sound of catch phrases? ,
The whole amount of this new discove
ry in finance, of "separating Bank & State,"
consists in depriving the Government of the
means which the banks would afford it of '
detecting misapplication iof the public mo-"
ney, and the belter security Ot its sate Keep
ing. In every other particular the counex-
ion is just as great as it ejvex was. Is not.
the revenue paid at this -time ; n-. bank pa
per ? Is it not deposited in bank by the
Collectors at their own pifivate cfedit, pro
vided they don't think proper to xise'it.
And cannot the banks use! it, or bank upon .
it, (to use another modern phrase,) when
thus deposited in the same way they did
before, if it suits their interest td-do so ?
The revenue is collected in the promissory .
notes of banks, and yet the Treasury can
not trust the banks with the keeping of
their own paper! Under the deposite law,
when the money was placed at the credit oi
the Treasury in bank, the Government had
the riht to draw it all out in specie wnen--
ever it chose to do so. What more can it
do now with the notes of the banks in the
hands of the Collectors and Receivers? Is
the Government any more secure now, by
holding the bank notes, than it was before, -
when it held the bank returns ana certin
cates of deposites? What is a bank note
but an evidence of a debt lu.eT And is hot
a bank certificate of deposite the same thing
in substance 1 Of what jconceivable ben
efit, then, can it be to the jGovernment, td
have its revenue scattered jail over the coun-
try, in the hands of Receivers and Collec
tors, without having any cfieck over them
whatever, when that revenue is collected in
bank paper? In our opinioh a more unwise
and indefensible mismanagement of finan
cial affairs, and keeping at pnnecessary risk
of loss and plunder of the public money,
never has characterized th conduct of any
Government upon the facje of the earth,
than that which has governed the affairs of
this nation for the last eighteen months!
Can the People submit to jit? Will they
permit parly rage and discipline, and the
corrupting patronage of thisl Executive Gov
ernment,to disgrace and ruin their country ?
The question is now fulj before the Peo
ple, whether they will continue to control
their own revenues as heretofore, or wheth
er they will resign the whole into the hands
of the Executive, to use arid dispose of at
his discretion. In coming to the decision
of that question, let the People not forget
that their own future liberties we immedi
ately identified with it. y
