It will be recollected .that one of Sir Walter Scott's sayings was, that "What ever might be said about luck, it is skill that leads fortune I" There can be no doubt of this as ' a general principle, Few self-indulgent and apathetic men do well in any line of life. The skil ful, the active, and steadily persevering, usually carry off prizes which turn up in the wheel of fortune. At the same time, something is due to circumstances, as Well as to the Power which wisely controls human destiny. Practically, however, the thing to be borne in mind is that the young are bound to exer cise all proper means to secure improve ment in their condition. That with a fair store of ambition, prudence and mer itorious skill, it may be possible to attain a station of eminence that is, "fortune," Chough,, perhaps, not without correspon ding responsibilities and cares we pre sent the following-compendious list of distinguished men who rose from hum ble and obscure circumstances : "iEsory Ptiblius S j rus, Terence and Epictetus all distinguished men in ancient-tuneswere serfs , at their outset in life. : i - r Protagoras a Greek philosopher, was arfirst a common porter. Bleanthes, another philosopher, was a pugilist, . and also supported .himself at first by drawing water and carrying burdens.. . "";""". 't,V . , . The Professor Heyne, of Gottingeu, one of the greatest classical scholars of his - own or any oilier age, was the son of a poor weaver, and for many years had : to struggle i with the most depress- . tng poverty. k The efforts of this excel lent man of genius appear to have been greater; and more protracted than those of any other on record ; but he was final ly rewarded with the highest honors, s Bandoccin, one of the learned men of the sixteenth century,' was the son of a shoemaker, and worked for many years at the same business. . Gelli, a celebrated Italian writer, be gan life as a tailor, and, although he rose to eminence in literature, never for "got his original profession, which he took pleasure in mentioning in his lec- tures.?f . .. j The elder Opie, whose talent for painting was well appreciated was ori ginally working carpeqter in Cornwall, and was discovered by Dr.- Wolcott otherwise Peter Pindar working as a sawyer: at the bottom of saw-pit ? . - i Abbot, Archbishop of .Canterbury, 'who flourished In the sixteenth century, and distinguished himseU by opposing the schemes of Charles I., was the son of a cloth'worker at Guilford. Akenside the author of "Pleasures of Imagination," was the son of a bu tch er in Newcastle-uJ-on-Tyne. D Alembert, the French mathemati cian, Was left at the steps of a chuich by : his parents, and brought up by a poor woman as a) foundling, yet arrived at great celebrity, and never forgot or abandoned his norse. Ammenius Sacophorus, founder of the Mystic Philosophy at Alexandria, was born in poverty, and originally earned his subsistence by carrying sacks of wheat whence the latter part of his name. - Amyot, a French author of some cele brity for his version of Plutarch, lived in the sixteenth century, and was at first so poor as to be unable to afford oil or candles to assist, his studies, which he had to carry on by fire-light; and til the sustenance his parents could afford him was a loaf of bread weekly. .SINGULAR CASE OF SPONTANEOUS COM . BUSTtON. The Concordia Intelligencer, of the 12th inst, relates the following : " Mr. V. O'Bryan, ot this parish, informs us that a few days ago he painted some Iovells with a mixture of white and black lead, linseed oil, and turpentine, for the purpose'of nuking a waterproof covering for cotton, and. during a rain he had it placed in a shed adjoining the gin house, where it had not remained two hours be fore it was a spontaneous flume of fire. The lowells bad been painted two days. 11 r. O'B., says he smelted something burn ing sometime before be discovered the fire, and had his gin stopped several times to examine the gudgeons, etc., thinking it was caused by friction, but discovering no signs of fire be examined elsewhere, and discovered the cause just in time to save the building from being consumed. VALUATION OF BOSTON. The Assessor's valuation of Boston this year presents an aggregate of $248,000,000. The gain of valuation in the city since 1846, ten years ago, has been me hundred trillions of dollars, an increase which shows nst conclusively the onward progress of oosion. mis vast sum or iuu,vuu,uuu, says the Traveller, is more than the entire valuation of either Maine, New Hamp shire or Vermont, VIOLENT TORNARO. The Prescott (Canada) Messenger of Sept. 19th gives an account of a tornado which on the previous Wednesday evening passed over the township of V inchester Mountain, &c., destroying fences, break ing trees, and unroofing barns and houses. The storm king committed some strange fantastics, and saw-logs of a large size were carried several rods, and in some in stances split or otherwise broken. A large fat bog was carried twenty rods and then thrown so violently on the ground as to tear out his entrails. The house of Isaac Erritt, in which were several persons, was unroofed, and a little boy's skull broken ; several others of the inmates were more or less injured. ' I stand, said a Western stump orator, ' on the broad platform of the principles of '98, and palsied be mine arm if 1 desert 'um I You stand on nothing of the kind I' interrupted a little shoemaker in the crowd ; 1 you stand in my boots, that you never paid me for, and I want the mo ney.
