TUSf'EILA^EOlS. MR. UUICK A.ND HIS SI'OILKD CHILD. " Oh, Jepthdh, judge of Israel, what a treasure fc&dti thou !" Mr. Quick ("Little Q lick,") had also h " treasure." namely, "one fair daughter, : the which he loved passing well"'?too well! It followed, then, that she was in ! infancy, so humored, petted, and " spoiled." that in comparison with her wild and whimsical desires, the far famed requisi- ! tior. of the " top tile off the chimney" was a moderate and justifiable demand. One day. a friend "dropping in" upon : Mr. and Mrs. Quick at their dinner hour, found these fond parents and their " treas- J uro" already seated at table, although the 1 'I'lm lincnilnMp i dishes were yer coverou. * > *- _ . couple insisted on their friend s participation of their homely meal; and he, in | compliance with their wish, took the I fourth side of the board, immediately op. : posite to the young mistress of the house, ! (then about six years of age,) who, by ; right of custom and her own sovereign will, chose, day by day, whatever position caprice or local speculations, connected with certain edibles pointed out to be most desirable; and there the high chair of, the little despot was ordered to he placed. On the present occasion, having forestalled her dinner by eating a lump of cake, which had palled h; r appetite, and render, od the present meal an unwelcome super- j fluitv, the little dear was seated next to her doating father as a mere looker on. j The main dish upon the table, when I uncovered, excited the curiosity of Miss Quick, who cither had not seen the joint before, or had fo?g- tten the name of if, j w hich she now eagerly demanded ; and J upon being told that it was a saddle of j mutton, she stood up, and promptly an-; nounced her intention to ride upon if j forthwith. To this pieposterous recreation the parents were fain to entreat tho j little imp's forbearance, in vain; for she i declared saddles were made to ride upon, j and to ride she was resolved. After much j ado, her patient father and mother luckily j * ? ??? - r * u I suggested that the envious ntai ui mc ; seat she nspired to, and the inconvenience I likely to arise from such exercise, would j, distress her, and spoil her new frock, the j ( <liffi"ulty seemed surmounted, and the ' i child desisted from further importunity ; j | hut immediately after, perceiving the dish {j almost overflowing with the juice of the j | mutton, she cried out, "Oh, let me put j | ir.y foot in the gravy ! I will put my feet i in the gravy !" The father, albeit not ; ( unused to such eccentric fancies, was a : little startled at his sweet pet's novel de- ! , aire, and exclaimed in a tone of assumed J ( wonder and of deprecation, " My precious ! ( love ! what a preposterous thing you pro- i ( pose ! it's quite out of the question.? , Now be a dear, good child, and let me j , help Mr. to some mutton."? < 'Oh!'' reiterated the little treasure, " I ^ will put my feet in the gravy first !" In vain the devoted parents argued, threaten- , d and coaxed; in vain promised that the | next day, when they were without a visi- . ter, she would do whatever she pleased ; , nil. all in vain! for upon a more determi- j ned opposition, the sweet little angel yel- ' led out her wishes in such a piercing key, ( lirnt her mother, a V;ry mild mannered I person, addressed her husband, 4* My dear . Mr. Quick, I'm afraid we shall have no J peace until we allow the dear child to do ?ts she likes." 14 Well, but, my love," ur- j ged Mr. Quick, in reply, a little ashamed , of their mutual weakness before th?ur . guest, 44 what will Mr. say to such j, a proceeding ? It is really so improper." . Mr. , willing to 9ee to what ex- , ' D j treme parental folly could go, withheld i both his opinion and permission, prefer- j ling a state of neutrality ; and Mr. Quick finding the little tyrant's determination warmer every minute, and the mutton j cooler. DroDosed a compromise, namely, ; the little darling should have another ! dish brought in, and placed in a corner of (' the room with some cf the gravy in it, and j then paddle about whilst themselves and 1 friend were at dinner, and return to table ! when the fruit came in. No: lhe"trea- ; sure," at the very top of her voice, once more declared that she would have the j dish, and nothing but the dish, before her; and further, that ?he would not abate one j drop of the gravv. At this perplexing ; juncture. Quick turned towards his friend, in apology for the scene before him, assuring him at the same time, that "it was j n|* no use to thwart the dear child, who would have her own way." Then calling ' for another dish, the poor father placed j the shivering saddle upon it, and lifting that from the table containing the gravy, carried it to a remote corner of the room, where he was followed by the "little duck;" who after a persuaded kiss from ihe goose her father, consented to have her shoes removed, and to remain splash- , ing about until the dessert appeared upon the table. When the little nuisance allowed her foot bath to be taken away, she re-ascended her high chair, and there further showed how hateful lovely infancy may become from improper indulgence, by pushing about and knocking down whatever was offered that she did not ap- j prove. Screaming forth her preference, j she at length declared in favor of a large pear, the largest in the dish, upon which she had placed her affections, Mrs Quick, ! unwilling to incur by fresh denial another j content with her powerful superior, with 1 prompt kindness smilingly placed the co- !1 vetted pear upon her daughter's plate ; ! | when, to the alarm of the beholders, the i t i little furv threw it back upon her mother ; < with the ferocity of a lull grown terma- i exchriming, hs she did so, 44 Why | did you give it to me ? I wanted to snatch iu" Mr. Quirk himself related this story to the person now telling i', at the same tune congratulating him-cll that his child . . i had grown intoa sensible rational woman, notwithstanding her parents' ea !y. en 1 dcutora to make her u fool. *"* 1 A LUCKY THOUGHT. During il.o early part of the French in- i v as ion of Airier?, a small party of the j French troops f? 11 into an Arnbambus-j| cade, and those who were not immediate- ] | Iv slain or taken prisoners were obliged to ? put more trust in their heels than in their ( inuskets. It happened that the regimen- , tal hand was with the party, and the musicians made a retreat with the rest, in a ]>restissimo movement of the most rapid | execution. The ophicleid player was, I? however, embarrassed by his instrument, |1 and ho was hesitating about carrying it j J further, when, happening to cast a Parthi-1 . an glance behind, to his consternation he i , beheld an Arab horseman close upon him. i, Farther flight was useless; there was no- j, tiling for him hut to fight or surrender, : I Years of desert slavery made a gloomy < prospect; and yet, what could his side- 1 sword a\aiI against the spear of his pursuer ? Desperation is the parent of many ( a strange resource. The lately abused j ( ophicleid was lifted to his shoulder musket , fashion, and the muzzle brought to cover i his toe. The Arab was struck with ? panic. Doubtless this was some deviltry 1 of those accursed Giaours?some ma- 1 chine of death, with a mouth big enough ' o o to sweep half his tribe into eternity ! Not a second did ho hesitate, hut, wheeling round, he galloped off at a pace that soon took him out of w hat he conceived might ^ he the range of this father ofall muskets. , Our musician made good his retreat, with a higher opinion of the powers of his in- < .? lUn tm hnil ovpr hefore nos dil UiliUlli IliUK V/ t.^v. v , sessed, and the story was the amusement 1 of the French ariny for many a day af. forward. VALUABLE NEW INVENTION. iMr. Aaron Palmer, of Brockport, N.I Y.. has invented what he calls the Endless J ] Self-computing Scale. It consists of a ; wheel within a wheel, on each of which j I are one or more circles divided into nine I primary divisions numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 1 &c., each division into nine subdivisions j j numbered 1, 2, 3, &c., and these subd visions are again divided into nine parts , each, &c. One wheel revolves within ; the other, which process constantly 11 changes the relations of the figures 1? ' c5 O encli other. By a simple revolution ofM the revolving part, all operations in sim- I j pie addition, subtraction, multiplication ind division are performed ; all improper ] fractions changed to whole or mixed nuin-; f bers, and mixed numbers to improper fraclions; fractions expressed in all their va- < rious forms ; divided and multiplied by ; | whole numbers and by each other; vulgar j fractions reduced to decimals, and deci- r mals to vulgar fractions; the different r :urrcncies reduced to Federul money ; in- s ? r* ii.* t terest computed on all sums lor an nines 1 it every possible rate per cent.; all qucs- I [ions answered in Loss and Gain, Rule of fhroo or Proportion, and Fellowship; numbers raised to squares, cube*, biquad rates and sursolids ; the square and cube roots extracted ; county, town, and school taxesapportioned. without moving the scale after its beingonceset to the amount asses. O t >ed ; toll computed ; land bounds, triangles, globes or balls, hypotbenuse, circles, and ellipsis measured; the solid contents given af round or square timber, globes or balls, ?y!indric pyramids, cones and casks; the j imounl given of all numbers of ounces, pounds, tons, yards, bushels, &c., at every < possible price, Arc. &c. All this ;s done f in one fourth of a minute, on an instru- t :nent weighing less than two pounds, and , lbout 14 inches in diameter, and one I fouith of an inch thick. It has been ex irnined by several scientific gentlemen. 1 md highly approved. Its use can be , learned in three days. We shall probably i be able to give a more full description, t with an engraving, in a few days. American Mechanic. ANOTHER FLOATING ISLAND. The Gew \oik State Mechanic, after giving some account ol the floating island in Derwent Like, near Keswich, in England, matches it with one in Clinton, in the northeastern corner of this State. We copy what relates to it : AT. Y. Post. ' "Remarkable as this floating island , may be, it is scarcely more so than oneol a similar description in Clinton county, in this State. Several years since, llev. J. W. B. W ood, a gentleman of an in- j quiring turn of mind, nnd then residing not many miles distant, made a visit to . the spot, and his account was published in the Christian Advocate and Journal, of New York city. " The lake in which the island is found lies in a deep gorge or rotten gulf of high table mountain equally noted through the ? - f *. .. i i-i- t surrounding counirv lor us ? uucKie nercr* / ries"and its rattle snakes and called the Flat Rock. The water of this lake is very deep, and the island differs from the one above described is constantly floating. Tn fact, a number of pines were 1 growing on it at the time of the visit of 1 O o Mr. Wood, some of which were five or six inches in diameter. The surface is covered with the productions peculiar to marshy grounds, and though the soil is so 1 soft that a sharpened pole may he thrust *; completely through, yet stray cattle have been discovered on it at various times Strictly speaking, it is not an island, hut a peninsula, and this will explain the ap. -j parent inconsistency contained in the last J sentence. However, that the peninsula, or island, (whatever the reader may please lo term it,) floats, and is disconnected from the bottom, ii demonstrated from the fact, that the wind will cause it to change its position, varying seme days many rods from the preceding. Were the isthmus, that acts as an anchor, sever. ^(1, it wotnd iiiidwuhiediy float oil, with lrrfc? for sails, a complete floating ist-' laud. i " That the statement of .Mr. Wood is I jorrect, from the known character thai j rentleman has always sustained, cannot ' " " . ! r >e douhted. Ifany further confirmation a ?e necessary, it can easily he given.? I r i'he writer of this article has conversed ' , t Yith several, who confirm the statement from their own knowledge. Singular Escape.?A most singular and jrovidcnti.il escape from a melancholy death ccurred in New York last week. A daugh:er (about four years of age) of Mr. Alfred S. Pcckham, formerly of this city, residing at No. 11 ClilF street) was playing in the room } < in which her mother was busily employed, j ivhen the latter, casting her eyes to the win- j iow, beh'jld a sight which must have been I nost harrowing to the heart of a parent. A ; I table had been moved from its place to a win" j Jow, which was open ; the child had got up on j this table by some means not known, and when the mother beheld it, was hanging out of the window, clinging with both hands to the moulding of ,thc si!!, its body suspended over a precipice of about 30 feet. Mrs. P. screamed and fainted, the servant ran to the room, and with great presence of mind, seized the chdd and restored it to its mother? but the latter was so overcome by the scene, that for tevera day6 her life was considered in Janger.?Providence Journal. EXTRAORDINARY EVENT,?IF?TRUE. The London Courier has copied the following story from the Etoile, a Paris paper, of a man being restored to life after having been frozen in an avalanche for one hundred and sixty-six years ! The editors call upon Major Longbow, Munchausen, and Ferdinand Men:lez Pento, to hide their diminished heads : 41 Dr. James Hotham, of Morpeth, Northumberland, returning from Switzerland, is stated to have reported that a most extraordi. nary event had lately passed at the foot of Mount St. Gothard, a league f.om Aizoli, in the valley of Levantina. At the bottom of a kind of cavern, the body of a man, about thirty ^ears of age, was perceived under a heap of ice proceeding from an avalanche. As the body seemed to bo fresh as if it had ) neen stifled on v half an hour before, Dr. ' Ho:ham caused it to be taken our, and, havng had the el?thc9 pulled off, ordered it to be nlunged in cold water. It was then so frozen that it was covered with a crust of ice. It was tlien placed in lukewarm water. After- , wards it was put in a warm bed, and treated i is usual in cases of suffocation, by which ncati* animation was restored. i What was the astonishment of every body ( when the individual, having recovered the us )f his faculties, declared that he was Roger Dodsworth, son of the antiquary or me same lamo, burn in 1629, who, returning from Italy in 1 GOO, a year after the death of his ather was buried under an avalanche. I 44 Dr. Hotharn, according to the same ac. . jount, is stated to have added, that Dr. Dods- | vorth feels a great stiffness in all his joints, I jut by degrees they will becom? as flexible as ! ( >efore the accident. Jf .Mr. Dodsworth fully c ecovcrs and should pass through Lyons to j ' eturn to his country, after cr.e nundred and j t lixty.six years' absence, it may be predicted ( hat he will attract, in the highest degree, the )ubhc curiosity." .j?I;J ynu'.T V FAMILY " ( fEPIHE Subscriber has received and is opening ! | JL in the Store above Mr. VV'adsworth's, and | ipposile to Mr. D.
