-MISCELLANY.

From the Indiana JouruJ. MONEY. The earth and sea re traverse o'er, Vfota pole to pole, from shore to shore, And Nature's latent springs explore, For mooaf. Through boiling deeps incessant ply, And burning sands or burnfbg sky, r ' Eternal polar frosts defy, For money. The furies, dread, of wind and ware, That round bis bark tremendous rave, The hardy sailor dares to brave, For money. The merchant's hope, the bsppy glt To waft from 'far the eumb'rous bale; And watch the lucky hour of sale, '' .-v. For money. The peaVnt makes bis butuble bow, And daily plies the spa da and plough, iWsweat distilliog froayjisbrow, For money. Though pattiot like he puff and swelj,' As if he bad the heart of Tell, . lbe statesman will bis country sell, Fdr mooey. i3hespring of virulent debate, Toe wayward strife .and vengeful hatj And war, the curse of many a state, Is money. Hard, griping misers, lank and bare, Denied to res, and needful fare, Torment their narrow souls with care, For money. Attentive wait on Mammon's call, Before his altar prostrate fall, And barter conscience, t irtue all, For money. The fortune-hunter heaves a sigh, And for his mistress feigns to din; But what has woo bis heart att3 eye? Her money. The nabob lo! the heir attends, And crowds of specious, suppliant friends, But mark their secret stltisn ends, His money.. The jockey lies, and cheats, and swears, The preacher stamps, and foams, and stares, And hypocrites prolong their prayers, For money. The advocate expounds the laws, Right sidy twists a knotty clause, And warmly pleads bis client's cause, For money. .The doctor makes his-deep surmise; Affects to seem most wxmd'rous wise; The cause resolved receipe supplies, For money. The quack proclaims unerring skill, Prescribes his universal pill; Will wound, or heal, or cure, or kill, For money. The shuffling gambler packs the deck; . The knave and villain forn a check; Ihe thief wid foot-pad risk their neck, For money. The assassin, nor in rage nor strife, Whets and conceals the bloody knife, And willing, spills the sacred life, For money. What will our credit still preserve? Of action be the vital nerve? 4 $ And what will every purpose 6eive? ' , 'Tis' money. O Money ! source of weal.and woe, Our very fritnd, our ded!j foe; JMore precious wealth let's ne'er forego, Forrnooey. Dearsq&x. Indianapolis, Dec: 4, 1828. Frain the (tfatche;) Ariel. FRJim'lEKT. But the dangers of the storm Were unheeded, or lost in the horror that now grappled and convulsed the iron hearts of men accustomed to sport with ordinary perils,' and to look upon the ocean, in his wrath, with unimpaired energies and sullen indifference. The ship drove furiously before the blast; the canvass, below and aloft, was all in, every order had been issued and obeyed, which seamanship could devise, or ciir.ge execute, and nothing stirred to interrupt the deathlike silence, in which suspense had wrapped all on board: a silence, at one moment fearful ly contrasted with the vindictive roar oil trip tempest and the stunning break of the heavy seas, as they thundered against our bulwarks, and now increased to painful intensity by an ominous pause, when the winds and the waters ceased their -" ---"7 vo iiu o W 11 J ed their terrorsbaffled in mischief, seemed whispering together, and detUing new efforts against our distressed but gallant and enduring ship. Lightning, in sheets of flame, careered along the horizon, flashing over heaving volumes, of concentrated darkness, or in arrows of fire, shot from the zenith to the by?s, threw athwart the waste a lurid gleam; lighting Up its deep vallies, or spiingii,galoDgitsmountains,and wreathing their lofty crests; fretted to a snowlike foam. The ship went on, like a creature of destiny! Despair had doserf the lips and glazed the eye of everv passenger; and as the lightning afforded opporl unity, they might be seen with clenched han if, standing like statue?, or rather spectres, glaring, pafe anrj ghastly! B The black mass of clouds, now descending, boiling and rolling with endless 2 lvolutious, and as a vast serpent gathering up his dark folds for combat, came on majestically, but in fearful energy, directly upon us.

One into the sea--! shall never forget the .expression of his livid face and bloodlhot eye, seen by that dreadful light, as he went by me into the deep ; the other on the deck, close at my feet, and the expiring wretch clutched rny ancle in his agony with a grasp from which I struggled vaiwly to escape.

The shin, with tier neau wrapt m flame, pressed on through the sea; and as impelled by a. sense of clanger, plung ed her bows madly injo trve waves, rush ifing on mountain high to meet her; and as the U-imes eat into ner vuais, consuminer one strength 'after another in her mighty frame, she pranced heavily, like some huge existence in mortal agony We were a hundred leagues from land, and cut off from all human aid. The discovery of a sail would only mock our misery, since succour was impracticable in such a sea lashed into fury by such a te-npest. 0 We still went forward? On, on, like the wind! as we had been unredeemed, lost spirit, coursing the ocean on a steed ot hell, girt about with a strange cloud of piercing wind, and fiery smoke, at the same moment scorched and frozen! As a last and most desperate resort, it was determined to lower away the boats, and encounter the hazard of drowning, rather than abide the assured alternative of death by burning. The confusion was indiscribable: order and discipline were contemned, and their warnings met by ferocious scorn, and the independence of despair. Amidst the cries of the drowning, however, and the shrieks, prayer?, and imprecations, of those struggling towards the boats, the object was-attained. My situation nmy be better imagined than described ; I had fruitlessly implored the assistance of several, hurrying past me, to the gangway. 1 craved hut one moment of their time, to release me from my horrible bondage.

My fall, extended the arm of the dead man, but failed to break his hold, I was sensible of the reaction on the muscles, as the limb reassumeu the form, it had taken on growing cold, and it seemed a jirk given in anger by the corse, to suppress my struggle, ai strengthen his grasp. I trusted that death would have relaxed the fingers; but the frosty air, contraced them, and 1 felt the gripe, tighter and tighter, closing around the limb, aud cinhinfv intn mv flf.ch.

My mind now reverted to home, my quiet peaceful home; to my cherubs playing about the hearth; to my anxious pious mother; my beloved sisters, kindred friends! There were a thousand deaths in the reflection! As the flame curled upward, enveloping shrouds, canvas5, and spars, the ship seemed invested with the wild energies of a magic, and went careering oyer the deep, as if urged to destruction by some indwelling, remorseless, and impatient fiend ! My hope now was, that the fire would reach the magazine, and thus spare me the agony of protracted torture, and painful death ; but even this I was not destined to realize. The maga zine did indeed explode; but I yet lived, and the fire rolled onward, wrapt me in its burning folds! I screamed with agony, and a last desperate effort to dash myself and the dead man into the sea, I awoke! I had blended my siesta with the eventful story of "The Flying Dutchman," and the volume still remained in my hand. A noble coal tire was sparkling and roaring in the grate, and my chums were sitting by it slyly enjoyine their villanv. The dogs had hung a heavy quarto of jonnson, to my toes, fied squibs, serpents, and spudevils, about the room,

and flivers crackers of every device fn' my ears; then they pulled off the bed clothe?, applied a piece of ice under my shirt collar, and a hot plate to my bowea and at the same moment raised a moss infernal din; enough to disturb the repose of "the seven sleepers."

If I had been inclined to vengeance, 1 would never have told them rny adven tures; but I had not the heart to punish them so severely.

Though tiiis circumstance took place as far back as about fifteen years agoy and respected 46 f xtraoi dinary a person-age as Voltaire, it is astonishing how little it is knowi., and how rarely the remedy has been i-ractised. Its efficacy, however, i.) ca; ? debility, cannot be questioned, and the following is the mode of preparing the valuable arlicle of food, as recommended by Sir John Sinclair: Recipe Beat up an egg in a bow!, and then fill ?ix table spoonfuls of cold w ater, mixing the whole well together; then add two table spoonfuls of the faiina of potatoes, mixing it with the liquor in the bowl. 1 hen pour in as much boiling water as will convert the whole into jelly, and mix it well. It may be taken either alone or with the addition of a little milk, and moist sugar, not only for breakfast, but in cases of great stomachic debility, or in consumptive disorder?, a the other meals. The dih is light, easily digested, extremely wholesome and nourishing. Bread or biscuit may be taken with it as the stomach gets stronger. Sir Isaac Newton was once riding over Silisburv-plain, when a boy keeping sheep called to him, "Sir, you had belter make haste on, or you will get a wet jacket." Newton looking round and obterving. neither clouds uor a specie on the hoi ison, jogged on, taking very little notice of the rustic's information, lie had made but a few miles, when a storm suddenly arising wetted him to the skin. Surprised at the circumstance, and determined, impossible, to ascertain how an ignorant boy had attained a precision and knowledge in the weather of which' the wisest philosophers would be proud, he rode back, wet as he was. "My lad ?aid Newton, 'I1U give thee a guinea, if thou wilt tell -ne how thou canst foretell the weather so truly." "Will ye sir? I will then," said the boy, sciatching his rain within an hour.' Vhat," exclaimed the: philosopher, "nuiii I in order to foretell the weather, st;y u.iv, and watch which way that rum turns his tail?" Yed sir." Off rode Newton, quite satisfied with his discovery, but not much inclined to avail himself of it, or to recommend it to others. ANECDOTE OF A MONKEY.

The father, insensible of the cause of this illtiined levity, reproached his audience for such improper behavior, when commencing the duties of divine w9rship. The mimic, above his head, continued to imitate every gesture with the greatest archness. The people could not compose their countenances; but in spile of their utmost efforts, their risible musfles were set in motion again and again. The preacher now began to grow angry ; and in the warmth of his displeasure, redoubled his vociferations and his gestures, thumped the pulpit with eagerness, raised his hands on high, and accompanied their motions with corresponding nods of the head. The monkey repeated all these gestures with the most grotesque mockery ; till at last the congregation had no power over themselves, but burst out into one loud and successive laughter.
