FOR THE Fit EE TRESS.
THK TORV.
Come all ye t hat have the lime to spare,
Young, old, lame, halt, blind and fair;
Let me sing you a song, a song of glory,
And teil you all what is a modern Tory.
'Ti he, they say, who fought on Monmouth's
plains,
Who spurned in days of yore the tyrant's chains;
Who fell upon the battle field all gory,
And fighting for his country won the name of
Tory.
?Tis he who made the British lion cower,
When o'er our country battle's front did lower;
Who amid the deadly fight and wild foray,
Did bleed for freedom ah, he's the Tory.
'Tis he who on Camden's heights and banks of
Pee Dee,
Most gallantly did spill his blood to make us free,
Whose veteran head by age has become quite
hoary,
Methinks, he must look most devilish like a
Tory.
?Tis he who fought to save our "beauty and
booty,"
Who saved our cotton bags, and gals both snowy
wiiite and sooty ;
Who fought to save his country, not for glory,
Surely this is he, they say, that mut be a Tory.
JTis he who chose to save the countrv, rather
than the Hank,
Who'd rather die that hear on him a slave's
chains clank;
Who lost both blood and treasure, if you'll be-
lifVe my story,
And fighting for his country, won the name of
Tory.

A BRIDE.
Young Beauty at the altar! Ye may go
And rifle earth of all its loveliness,
And of all things created hither bring
The rosiest and richest but alas!
The world is all too poor to rival this!
Ye summon nothing from the place of dreams,
The orient realm of fancy that can cope,
In all its passionate devotedncs,
"With this chaste, silent picture of the heart!
Youth, bud-encircled youth, and purity,
Yielding its bloom and fragrance up in tears!

A new project. General Green, of the
"Washington Telegraph, has announced
his intention to open an institution at the
seat of government for the education of
apprentices to the printing business.
Ilis plan is to take 200 students, who are
to be divided in classes, one to comnosn
on the Telegraph a certain number of
Jiours in the day, and on several literary
and scientific works; the remaining hours
to study. Their education is to be per
fecr, and they are to be first rate compos
rV and proof readers; to be fed and
iliv yrJ the surplus of wages laid by
for them at the'un -of their apprentice
ship. The Typographical Society have
protested in strong language ugainsl
what they conceive is a monopoly, which
may finally seriously injure their inter
ests, by affording labor on cheap terms.
There can be no doubt that for a time it
may injure uV interests of journeymen,
bu it is like all improvements that cheap
en labor; they cannot be prevented, and
in a free country a man has a right to car
ry any legal project into execution. Gen.
Green certainly aims at being- considered
a useful citizen he is so; the plan is a
beneficial one, although he may derive a
pecuniary benefit from it. It promises to
turn out printers of talent, education,
character and integrity: editors of enlar
ged views; candidates for the honors of
the country; sober, moral, high minded
men Franklins and Rittenhouses.
Surely such a project merits encourag
inent and approbation. iV. Y. Star.
tfTA city correspondent of the Boston
Atlas describes an India rubber dress from
the Roxbury manufactory, by which a
person is enabled to descend in water
for the search of property. It was tried

Flying Machine. The Cincinnati i
Republican, says, "Mr. Masson, an in
genious mechanic, has been engaged
some months in constructing a machine
or vehicle of this description, in which he
expects to be able to navigate the air by
the force of steam. J here is nothing I
the balloon principle connected with the
apparatus. It is to be elevated and pro
oelled bv machinery, in (he siianc of
wings. We have looked at the machine,
which is now nearly finished, and wheth
er it prove successful or unsuccessful, it
is a beautiful and ingenious piece of mechanism.'
New Mechanical Power. An ingen
ious mechanic at Brussels has just appli
ed a new power to mechanics, fiom which
great results appear to be expected.
This new power is galvanism. Across a
fly-wheel which is to give motion to the
machine he has placed a metallic bar,
previously magnetised by a galvanic pile,
and within the attraction of two verv
powerful magnets. The moment that
the bar arrives in a rotatory course at the
limit of the attractive power, and where
it would necessarily standstill, the inven
tor, by the application of galvanism sud
denly converts the attractive into a repul
sive power, which contiuues.lhn motion
in the same direction, and by the alterna
tions, well managed, the wheel acquires a
rapid rotation. The experiment is said
to have been completely successful, and
the machine worked for a whole hour.
A Paris paper mentions that for some;
days past a person has been riding
through parts of the city in a car with
sails, acted upon by the wind, with entire
success. lie stopped at several places
at pleasure, and appeared to have com
plete control of the machine. He even
mounted a hilly street, with the wind al
most "a-hcad." If things go on thus,
steam power will soon be at a discount.
Embroidering Machine. A very sur
prising machine constructed in the estab
lishment of M. Koehin, is an embroid
ering machine, which, with great rapidity
and the most unerring accuracy, covers
the texture of the silk, cotton, or wool,
submitted to its operation, with flowers
and designs of every possible variety and
hue. That a mere inanimate machine
could be capable of carrying on so com
plicated and delicate a work as embroid
ery, appears on first consideration, almost
an impossibility, and even after seeing
some of its beautifully embroidered pro
ducts, a doubt still lurks in the mind, and
one would wish to see it at its handy-work,
to be pcrfectly'convinced of the fact.
Battle with the Pawnee Indians. A
report is going the rounds of the newspa
pers, that the U. S. Dragoons under the
command of Col. Dodge, have had an
engagement with the Pawnee Indians, in
which the latter were defeated with con
siderable loss. It may be proper to state,
that the War Department has received no
official or other credible account of any
such engagement.
P?"The Philadelphia Inquirer states
that the Emperor of Russia has, through
the medium of the Baron de Krudener,
Minister Plenipotentiary at Washington,
presented Joshua Shaw, Esq. artist of
the former city, with five hundred dollars,
for an improved percussion cannon lock,
invented by Mr. Shaw.
C7It is said that Dr. Hannah, of Wash
ington, has invented an apparatus for re
moving the stone from the bladder with
out cutting, or scarcely paining the pa
tient. (T?The crowd of pilgrims, each with
toreh in hand, at the Holy Sepulchre at
Jerusalem, was so great on Holy Satur
day in May last, that the air became op
pressive, and many in attempting to gain
the door were crushed to death. Ibrahim
Pacha was present, and lost his sabre and
diamonds. ,

solicited to apply to the Subscriber personally, or b

ted. From the Subscriber's long experience in his
business; and troui the approbation which his work
has hitherto met with, he hesitates not to promist
entire satisfaction to all who may see. fit to extend to
him their patronage. Gins out of order will be ex
peditiously repaired. The Subscriber takes the lib
ci ty of calling the attention of those who wish to pro
cure new Gins, or to have old Gins repaired, to the
expediency of applying to him in time. When all
wait as is usually the case, until the work is wanted,
it causes such a pressure of business, that many ate
obliged of necessity to submit to a longer delay than
thev wish.
