"In the Carthusian .Convent, of which I was prior,?' said Father A to me oue evening, "therelived a monk of a melancholy! humor and gloomy disposition, who was known to be a somnanbtiliit. Sometimes j he would come out of his cell, when' the lit was upon bim, and go in again alone; and sometimes he would wonder ' away, and require to be conducted home. Medical adrice being obtained, some remedies were administered, and his relapses becoming of less frequent occurrence, people no longer thought of him. One evening that I sat up rather later than usual, I was busy at my desk examining some papers, when I heard the door Of tny Chamber open, fiom which the key was seldom withdrawn, and in a moment this monk entered in a state of absolute somnambulism. His eyes were open, but fixed he had nothing on but the tunic he slept in, and in his haud a long-bladed knife. Kuowing where my bed stood, he went straight to it, and seemed to ascerlain, by feeling with his hand, whether I was actually there. ..Then, three several times, he struck with such force that, after pierceiog the blankets 'he blade penetrated very deep ly into the mattiess, or rathar mat, which 1 used instead. When he passed before me, "Lis features were contracted, and bis brow .knit; but when he had done the deed, he turned on his heel, and I noticed that his features were relaxed, and he had an air of satisfaction diffused over them. The light of the two lamps which were standing on my desk, made no imptession on his eyes, and he went' back again as he came, opening carefully and shutting the two doors which Jed to my cell; and in a little time I assured myself that he had gone directly and quietly to his own apartment. The state into . which this terrible annuraiiou- threw me," continued Father A ,"may be conceived. I shuddered with horror at the idea, ol i the danger I had escaped, and offered up my j thanks to Heaven; but such was my state ofj excitement that l cou!d not close my eyes durin? the niuhf. "On the following morning, I sent for the somnambulist, and in the tone of seeming indifference, inquired what had been the subject of his last night's dream. This ques'fioii rather disconcerted him. 'Father,' said he, Udiearaed bo strange a dream, that I feel soma reluctance to tell it to you; it is, perhaps, the work of the devil and-i .' "I command you to tell It,' said I. . 'Dreams are involuntary, and merely delusive. Speak out the truth.' 'Father,' then said he, 'scarcely had I laid myself down, when I dreamed that you bad killed my mother, and that her bloody ghost appeared to me crying out for vengeance. This so transported me with fury, that I ran like a madman into your cell and finding you iu bed, stabbed you there. Shortly afterwards, I awoke, perspiring at every pore, with a perfect horror of my wickedness, and blessing Ciod that so great a rlmfi had not been committed More has been committed than you think.' said I, in a quiet tone. I then related to him what happened, and showed him the blows he had intended for . mej at the sight of which he threw himseif at my feet.stifiused with tears, bitterly lamenting the involuntary misfortune which'had so nearly takea place, and imploring me to icflict such a penance as 1 might think' suitable such an occasion. 'No, tin ' I fiirlaimed I will not punish vou for . an involuntary deed; but hereafter' your attendance at the ni"ht service will be dispen sed with: and I warn vou that your cell shall be locked on the outside afierevening meal, and the door shall only be opened to let jou out to the family mass at the dawn of day.'" ' INDIAN LESSON OF WISpOM. A bird catcher netted a sparrow, and es lie held it, the bird opened his beak and said "Pray let me go; what good can my imprisonment do? it you sell me no one will give you two pieces for me-rbut it you will prom ise to let me so, I will . give you three les sons of wisdom, by which you may make a fortune both for yourself and for the, kuteha buticha," (family.) "There, these are my lessons: never regret what, is irretrievably gone never believe that which seems immnhable: and never expose your disappoint ments to die world." Grateful for so much v.ir.d advice, the bird catcher opened. hi hand, and the happy little sparrow flew of! to the spray of a neighboring tree, where hav- : t...i hor t?.itner3 wurr an mi ' till? umuicu r , , umph, "Foolish- maD," ;oth he, "I have

Mr. Whitney, a distinguished merchant of New York, is about to present to Congress, says report, one of the most stupendous projects of the age ; and which is no less than the construction of a railroad from the western shore of- Lake Michigan, in a direct line to the Columbia River, a distance of some 2100 miles, which shall be the point of demarcation for China! He estimates the cost of the road at fifty millions of dollars, and requires twenty-five years to perfect the scheme. The co-operation and assistance that Mr. W asks of the Government, is a grant of sixty miles wide of the public land, from one terminus of the road to the other, for which a full consideiation would be given in carrying the mails, and transporting ammunition, stores, soldiers and all public matters, free of cost when the road is built! The trip from Boston to the Pacific, steam-horse pace, could be m;ide in about eight days, and withsicam facilities a flight across the globe might be accomplished in a single mouth! The project is a magnificent one and that is all we expect there ever will be of it. ODD. D. E. B.T.aieihe iuitialsof'Dun Every Body Twice;" C. 11. E. D. I.

The materials of which ihe pyramids are constructed, afford scope for long dissertation, be cause, independently of all the science and skill requisite fur their adaptation, the distance from which most of them were brought proves that sach monarch's sway extended all over Egypt and Lower Nubia, if not beyond; and in rela tion to this subject we gather the following Tacts from the second lettets ol Mr. Guidon's new course : Geologically considered, Egypt is a very pecu liar country, the quarries of different kinds of stone lying at great distances trom each other in dietiucly marked localities. If you ace a piece of basalt on the beach of the Mediterranean, you know that there is no basaltic quarry nearer t tan between the 1st and 2d cataract, and, when you find a block of granite at Memphis you know thai no granite exists fcutat the first cataract neater than the peninsula of Mount Sinai. Ear ly civilization and extended dominion is indi cated in these lucts, and when we rt fleet upon them, wc a'most think we witness the work of transpor taiion going on ; that we see the builders and the building themselves in procisss of erection. The blocks of Arabian limestone used in the interior of the pyramids, were brought from the ancient quaries of Toorah, on the , opposite' side of (he Nile, distant about 15 or 20 miles from each pyramid. These very quarries are vast halls as it were excavated iti the living Rock, wherein entire armies might encamp, are adorned with now mutiliited tablets recording the age of their respective opening by different Pharaohs, not only show ihe very beds whence the stupe Melons blocks ot some of the pyramids were taken; but are in themselves, works as wondrous and sublime as .the Memphite Pyramids! nay, at the very foot of these quarries, lie the countless tombs and Sarcophagi of numbered generations of ancient quarrymen? These quarri es are of intense archaslogical interest, be. cause the tablets in them record that stone was cut in them for Memphis on such a dsy such a month, such a year cf the reign of such a king; nd these kings begin from the remote times before the 16th dynasty, and, at differeut intervalscome down through the Fharaonic period with many of the others, till we reach the Ptole maic epoch and end with Latin inscriptions similar to others in Egypt attesting that "these quarries were worked" in the propitious era of our Lords and Emperors Severus and Antoninus, thus enabling us to descend almost stop by step, from the remore antiquity of 2200 years B. C. down to 2UU years alter the christian era. 1 lie hand of modern barbarism, prompted by the destruc.tiveness of Mohammed Alt has since 1630 done more to deface these tablets to blow up many of these hall s in sheer wentonness than has been effected by time in 4010 years! ' - Every atom of the hundred thousand tons ot granite used in the pyramids was cut at Syene, the 1st cataract, distant 640 mites. Theblocks, some of wLich are 40 feet long bad to ho cut out of their beds with wooden wedges and cop per chisels; then polished with emery till they were as smoth'as looking glass, and then carried by land half a mile to the river placed on rafis and floated down 640 miles to Memphis brought by canals to the foot of the Lybian chain conveyed by land over gtgatitic causeways from one mile to three in length to the pyramids for which thev were intended, and then' elevated by machinery and placed in their present position, wiib a skill, and a masonic precision that has confounded he most scientiSe European engineer with amazement! The very basalt sarcophagi that once hied the mummy of the Pharoahs, in tho inmost recesses of these pyramidal mausolea,8i feet long by 31 broad and 3 deep were all brou"hl from Lower. Nubia, from the basal" tic quarries of the ?1 cataract not nearer than "50 miles op the rivet ! Looking into the inte rior of tho pyramids, there is still much to stag ger belief to excite our admiration.

Among his novel and strange assertions in relation to the science of the ancient Egyptians, Mr. Gliddon maintained that from the very nature of their country, and the vast fossil remains in their quarries, &c,, the Egyptian priests must eave been geologists and referred to his "Chapters," page 49 for the remarks of the piiest of Solon. 'You mentioned the deluge only, whereas many happened" and her evidences, that the Egyptians recognised in their mythology and chronology of the would vast periods of time anterior to the creation of man.
