the smelters at the rate of 3 cwt. of lead for a ton, being an allowance of 30 per cent, thus securing to the smelter 35 per cent. The smelting: is done in small furnaces, erected at

Parental affection I consider as a virtue ot , the highest stamp, but it does not consist in ridiculous indulgence, nor a foolish submission to a being scarcely endowed with a dawn, of reason. The compliance with the will of children in all their perverse -and uncertain capric-

them unfit for society in after lite; nay, it prepares additional disappointments and sutler ngs for them in their journey through a world o'vi cissitudes.

ANOTHER KE.VPUCKV TP. AG ED V. Again wc have from the. West a melancholy tale. We learn, from a private source, that about two weeks ago Dr. Young, a. representative in Congress from the ftate of Keutuckv shot and killed, in the Jtreet of Eli.abethtown, .Mr. Hardin, a lawyer from Breckenridge county. Of so aggravating and attrocious a character was the cause of this act, as to shield Dr. V. from prosecution, and almost to justify the act in the public opinion. Mr. liardin was one who opposed the election of Dr V and is
supposed to have partly led by vindictive feelings to commit the outrage which foreran his death. Nothing short of an atlrocious viola
