JUSCELL.LYLV UH,

FHOM THE MICROSCOPE. Sir Invention and discovery are tl.c first and noblest principles in human perfection. The high and the proud attainments of one nun, prompt another to perseverance, and e xcite him to enterprise. Animat cd by such a spirit, man hns wrought out many invention's; in other words, arisen from ignorance and degradation Ivitsti!!, uhen we look amu, d us and consider, we find his conceptions narrow arici his knowledge limited. His mind yet needs enlighten ing, and his knowledge enlarging. To promote these idmirable purposes, what could be more proper than the perfection of Erostanon, or the art of fivinjy, and the tiiseovery of new world", ? These wonderful the mies liave long been avouched and advocated by the immortal Sy.nr.irs and Uenneti; and tlvniks be todi?i. confidence, they stard ;;s undaunted be fee the powers of the new world Os C .Ju m bus did before the nvjes tics of the old. M'.iy their venera cd iMts be e.ver recorded upon thtliving tablets of our hearts. These may seem like wild eoojectur. s ; but, for my part, I have no daub; but what. before the termi ..tioi of this very century, man will ride on the air as easily' as he now sails upon the sea. This ear th wnl be foend to contain worlds internal as well as external, and prosperous voyages of di rovery be effected throu i.o t the ivide range of the cthc-ri.il rc;;iitis. '!

It h ascertained to be a fjet, that the moon move in a somewhat eccentric circle, and thit, in some parts of its orbit, it app-oiches nearer to the enh than in ethers: moreover, tint the attraction between bodies is always as the quantity of matter and their distances. Watching, then, the period of (he moon's nearet-t approach to the earth, w hen ofnetcssity its attracion must be the greatest, and applying every power of the vessel in which the voy ge is to Ire made, one might pass vvidi perfect ease, and, inastVrt time, land in. safety on its delightful bod. rs.

The fact has been demonstrated, di n the genuine Hyson Tea may be successfully cultivated in this State, The experiment has been tried, and the resuh has been the most satisfactory. A Ldy. die wife of Mr J. Nt . land, of Chath im County, IV-und a seed much resembling that of buckwheat, in the bottom of a box of tea, which her husband putehestd in this town. She planted tlie seed

n her garden and the produce uas u plentiful crop. She gave some of the seed to .Mrs. Farriugton, of Chat-

h im County, who also planted the seed ; and the writer of this article obtained his information from Mrs. Farriugton, and also ob'ained f -m her seme of the tea undr,td. lie

his frlcnfls in this town and Its vl. cinity. A Tteatise on the mode of curing this valuable plant h quite desirable. Tfjf.i On. .vc-:k Dttttf MuflUr, MOMNO AND OILWINU TOBACCO. Mr. Editors I have always considered it the duty of a public press to notice whatever m.j contribute to tlie benefit ol society, cither useful or ornament d. That : ins king ti:;ars in the street is a pubhc benefit there can be little question. A (igir in my opinion sets off an ugly lace very much, and .id is t;nady to the beau y ol a handsome one. I o see a fellow gather, ing ji) his lips and drawing hard on h.s cigar to get a good mouthful of moke, arid when his cheeks are well distended, suddenly to open his lips and let out the curlins volume, is really extremely amusn-g; and, agreeably to my taste, there can bt no stronger e vidence givtn of a well br'd man than to see him with a cigar m his mouth in the street, leav. ing behind a volume of smoke to be snuff, d up by the ladies and those tho are nervously fond of the smt l of tobacco, particularly the cheapest Virginia. It is to be sincerely wished the practice may be universally encouraged, as it g od e fleets have long been well known Tht it dds t 'he giowth of youthi and is o b- ne fit to their health no bo'y wil. deny. Besides a long cigar running bi n zontally from die mouth of a lad I

have always thought m de h m 1 ok taller in the day time, while at night the fire on the e .d prevents people from running htm down. N-.'Xt to smoking 1 think chewing tilacco is highly greeable, a. id also

adds much to cleanliness and health

'Chose who chew Utg;' quantities, or

there who t ke a very large quid, arc seldom plagued with water on the chest it is thio.vn ( If, being drawn up by the trench of this narcotic. It also swceiens the brxath greatl; . liesides it ha also been considered an an'idote to ennui for when the nintl s absent, it is no little pleas u-- to turn li.df a paper of Heill's finest cur from one side of the mouth to the other, and when tired of this -port to take the quid in his hand aird carry it along nil tile mouth gets ekted, and then put it inagun. While out it gets cool, and gives the most plersing sensations on being returned to the mouth. Tfrnse who admtre yelloxo te:tht and they are certainly more fashionable than clear white, have of en en opportunity to see whole rows, as cnewc's ait? more or less obliged to exhibit them as they open 'heir hp, o squirt out the juice ofihci qu'd-. lies' cks it often happens that the wind carries th juice -gainst th. white gowns of the fair, and when evnr tnis is the case the mot beau'i ful spo s are imprinted on the chess, which are well kr.cwn to -tand then colours. All these benefits arise from chewing. It often is the source of amuse ment This was proved to me a few dnys since. On passing iiroad way some tobacco chewcr h cl a moment before emptied Ids jaw s of a tremendous quid which he form
