From the American Almanac, for 1834. GREAT ECLIPSE OF THE SUN. " Tbc most remarkable of the phenomena that this year (1S34) will happen, is the Eclipse of the Sun, on Sunday the 30ili of November. This is the third of the very uncommon series of five large eclipses visible to us, in tho short term of seven years;' the fourth of this series will take place May

15th, 1830, and the last, September 18th, 1838. The eclipse of the present year will doubtless receive great attention throughout our country. In those places where its magnitude will not exceed eleven digits, not much diminution.of the light is to be expected, even at the time of the greatest obscuration ; perhaps, however, it may be sufficient to render visible Venus, then about 30 degrees E. S. E. of the Sun, nnd much nearer the earth, than usual. Nor will the obscuration be very great where the eclipse is almost total;" since it has been observed on former occasions, that the eclipsed . part, even when reduced to a point ; sheds suflicent light to render small objects visible, and invisible ihe brightest of the stars. Indeed on account of the refraction of the Sun's rays by the atmosphere of the earth, the darkness can hardly with strictness be considered total, even when the Sun is completely shut from the sight. In the great and remarkable eclipse of June 10th, 1800, when the Sun was totally obscured at Boston, for five min

utes, as much light remained as is given by the Moon when full; and greater darkness will not probably be experienced, in any place, on the present occasion. Throughout the United Stales, however, a great depression, of tho thermometer, if placed in the Sun, will probably be noticed ; and tor some min

utes before and after the moment of the greatest obscuration, the power of a lens to produce combustion, by condensing the solar rays, will be quite, if not entirely, destroyed. At the time of the Annular eclipse of February 12th, 1831, it was observed by the editor that the thermometer in the Sun, fell from 73 to 20, and that during the continuance of the ring, no sensible effect was produced by placing its blackened bulb in the focus of a powerful burning glass. This eclipse, as will be seen on tracing the path of the centre, will be total in a small part of the " Territory of Arkansas, and of the State of Mississippi) Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina. The principal places, in which the obscurity will probably be complete, are Charleston, Beaufort, S. C. Savannah, Milledgeville, Tuscaloosa, and Little Rock. The greatest duration of total darkness in any place will be at Tuscaloosa and Beaufort these ohc.es Ivinff vervnear the central oath. At

( J mf Charleston and Savannah, the duration will be considerably less; the former being situate about forty miles north of this path, and tho latter about thirty south. The width of the line of total darkness varies in its passage across the earth, but in the United States will be about one hundred miles. Those of the Atlantic States, who desire to behold this rare spectacle the most magnificent and sublime of the phenomena of nature, compared with which even the Niagara sinks into mediocrity will find Beaufort the most eligible place in which to make their observations, and they will not neglect this opportunity, when they reflect that the Moon's shadow will not again, for the space ofthir-tv-five years, pass over any part of the inhabitable

nortions of the United States, or until August 7th, ! Amount coined within the week end

Previous to the introduction of steamboats on the Mississippi, the amount of goods transported between New Orleans and the towns of Louisville and Cincinnati was only two thousand tons, carried in barges averaging 100 tons, burden, and making only one trip within the year. The amount is estimated to be at present upwards of one million ol tons, the tonnage of the steamboats employed in this portion of the trade on the Ohio and Mississippi alone being S400, and each boat making many trips in a year. This is truly a most extraordinary increase of the trade in less than twenty years, steamboats having been first introduced to the Mississippi in 1817. A part, in proportion to the whole, a small part of this increase must be ascribed to the growth of population; and moreover the

growth of population has itselt been vastly accelerated by the trading facilities.

As, at tbc time of the Eclipse of February, 1831,

much inconvenience and even injury was sustained from want of care in looking at the Sun without any protection for the eye, or through glass not sufficiently colored, it may be proper to remark, that should the sky, during the continuance of the eclipse be clear, one of the very darkest green or

DEATH & CHARACTER OF DON PEDRO. The Ravisla, published at Lisbon, observes: This Prince, of whom Tour country and the friends of liberty have so soon been deprived, was born in the Palace of Qjeluz,the 12th of October, " 17DS. From his very infancy he was familiar with

misfortune. The French invasion, and the execu

tion of the treaty of Fontainbleau, determined the Royal Family to abandon their ancient capital, and

to fix the seat of the monarchy in Brazil. Sometime after the emigration of the Royal Family to

the new Empire, the education of Don Pedro was confined to John Radenak, a respectable old man, who bad long been Ambassador from Portugal to the Court of Denmark, and who was master of all the languages of Europe, and endowed with vast knowledge and rare virtues. The progress of the young scholar corresponded

to bis docility and excellent parts, and the brilliant qualification of the master. When the Duke of Braganza was deprived by death f his master, he was intimately acquainted with the works of Filangieri ; bo bad composed numberless poetical effusions ol .great brilliancy and harmony; music was his ruling passion; and all the mechanical arts were familiar to him. A dexterous and undaunted driver, he often drove six horses. The chase, however, was hi3 favorite exercise. He at last devoted himself principally to military studies, and the combination of the higher parts of stratogracal science. His Imperial Majesty expired in the arms of a

spouse worthy of him a model of conjugal love, of constancy, and of every virtue. The widow and daughter of two great men, who, lived in the agitated sea of political tempests, she now laments the loss of her husband, in the Palace of our Kings, beside the august Queen, whom she always loved as a daughter, and whose mind she adorned with ' all the endowments she possesses. This day, the 27lh of September, the mortal remains of the Liberator of the country, the worthy

tival of Don John I. will be transferred to the ancient monastery of St. Vincent, in ibis city, and placed beside those of his august father. Great in life, and perhaps greater in death, which he expected rny days with the serenity of a Christian philosopher, his Imperial Majesty wished that his funer- : al should not be that of a Prince, but that of a soldierthe first soldier of tho Liberating Army ! Portugal will long mourn tho loss of so great a

A letter from Petersburgh, Pa. published in the Advocate, states that they are often seen crossing the turnpike near that town; and that a small boy, who had been sent in search of the cows, has recently been devoured by bears in that

vicinity. Ihe legs and ieet of the little sufferer were found, which revealed to his agonized parents the fate of their child. Civilian. A similar melancholy event is mentioned in the Bradford (Pa.) Settler of the 1st inst& from which we learn, that a small child, in TiogaAcounty, was lately seized by a bear, whilst in a field with some cows, not far from the dwelling, but before assistance could be rendered by some men who were in sight, was deprived of life, and partly devoured.

WHY AND BECAUSE. The following extracts are from a small book intitled "Knowledge for the People; cr plain Why and Because :'

Why is a strong infusion of green tea an efilrctu- j al poison for flies? Because of the prusic acid It contains. Why is coffee so seldom well made in England? Because, 1st. The berries are overroasted, their proper color being that of cinnamon. 2d. The coffee is ground too fine. 3d. Not enough coffee is used. 4lh. It is usually over-boiled, by which means the bitter principle is extracted from the berries. Why are we in some measure indebted tn th

French for our present abundant supply of coffee? Bacause all the coffee grown in the West Indies has sprung from two plants taken thither by a French botanist from the botanic garden at Paris.

On the voyage the supply of water became nearly axhausted; but so anxious was the Frenchman to preserve the plants, that he deprived himself of his allowance in order to water the coffee plants. Formerly coffee could only be got at a great expense from Mocha Arabia.

Why are eggs preserved by rubbing them by butter? Because the butter closes the pores in the shIl by which the communication of the embryo with external air takes place. The embryo is not, however, thus killed. Varnish has a similar effect. Reaumur covered egg3 with spirit varnish, and found them capable of producing chickens after two years, when the varnish was carefully removed. Why have white veils a tendency to promote sunburn and freckles ?

Because they increase the power of the suns light. Why are white hats and dresses worn in summer? Becaus dark colors absorb most heat: white

therefore repels most heat, and is cooler wear. A white dress in winter is good, because it ladiatcs or receives little heat. Pohr animals have generally light furs. White horses are both less heated in the sun, and less chilled in tho winter, than those of darker hues.

Why does a flannel covering keep a man warm

in winter, and ice irom melting in summer? Because it both prevents tho passage of heat from the man, and to the ice. Why is cotton warmer than any other fibrous thread? Because the fibres of cotton, when examined by the microscope, will be seen to bo finely toothed: this explains the cause of their adhering together with greater facility than the fibres of other species which are destitute of teeth, and which cannot be spun into thread without an admixture of cotIon. Why is woollen cloth advantaglous? Because of the readness with which it allows the

perspiration 10 escape through its texture, its power of preserving warmth to the skin under nil circumstances, the difficulty of making it wet through

the slowness with which it conducts heat, r.nd the I

soitncss, lightness, and pliancy of its texture. Why does pearl-ash and water remove grease spots? " Because the pearl-ash unites chemically wiih the

tion, was engaged in reading newspapers at the table. The man took up the glass with an evident

mark of satisfaction, and was in the act of putting it to his lips, when 4bov wow wow," appeared to come from a whiffet dog as in the act of biting at his leg. Tho man kicked and cried "get olll, most lustily in the same moment, in doing which he set down his glass and looked round for the dog. But no dog was to be seen, and this excited his surprise in an especial manner. However, he shortly concluded to ugo ahead" and take his dram; but in the act of a second time tipping it to his lips, "bow wow won'" tho dog barked louder than hefore; and snarled as if in earnest. The man jumped aside, kicked again and hallowed "get out" evidently alarmed. He looked about for tho dog. But as none was to be seen, he set down hi? glass declaring he would not drink under such circum

stances, and walked out. Mr Santon ought lo be allowed a pension by the Temperance Society.

Blackford's Reports. The second volume of this work is just being completed at the Democrat office, and having been in progress with the binder, will be olfercd to the public in the course of two weeks. We have no doubt but the profession will be gratified at this early delivery of this important work, and, we hope, also pleased with its median ical execution, for although it issues from our own

press we think we can safely say, that the book, in stock, work and style, is not inferior to any work ever published in the state. The indefatigable labors of its learned author bestowed upon Uiis volume, will be found not to detract from the high character of the first volume, which so freely drew forth the commendations of the most renowned legal commentators in the Union. This volume contains a full report of all cases decided in the Su

preme Court of Indiana until the commencement of the year 1832, accompanied with copious notes and references to analogous cases in the English and American Courts; and will make about 530 pages, being 40 pages more than the first volume. Io practitioner in the state will feel himself at liberty to neglect a speedy purchase of both of these volumes, winch embrace all the decisions since the organization of the state. Ind.

The BlacJc Death. This great pestilence in the fourteenth century swept away, in four years, a fourth of the entire population of Europe, 'indications of some dreadful calamity preceded the desperate malady for more than 15 years. Parching droughts were followed by torrents of rain, unprecedentcd since the flood. Four hundred thousand were drowned in the capital of Kingsai, by the sudden rise of the rivers, Kaing and Hoai. The mountain of Tsincheou, was washed from its very foundations, and left vast chasms in the earth. One year after, 1344, the neighborhood of Canton was inundated, while in Tche, nfier the unexampled drought, a plague arose, which swept otf, with irresistible force, about fivej millions of people. When the black death reached England, both tho air and the water were so saturated with something destructive to animal life, tho fishes died in the rivers, and five thousand cattle died in one pisture. It maintained its empire from 1317. to 13o0, with unabated fury. Tracts and Lyceum.

From the Ohio Farmer. 1 Cuffed for horses. As economy is as impor-' tant in n person's calculation as tho making of money itself, I have often thought too little attention was paid to it; a very wasteful practice among our western farmers, is that of feeding whole com to horses. It is injurious to young colt?, and too heating for work horses to benefit their health nnd spir

its, it we were to say nothing about tho want cf

! economy. A common cutting box will cost not

more t!.an five dollars and will last many years, nnd with this you may save twice that amount every yer.r on, I might with safety say, each head of hor

ses in your keeping. 1 would not Feed even oats in the grain but would grind it with n mixture of corn, rye &c, with my cutting box, 1 would if 1 had it, cut. rye straw in preference to any other and with a very small portion of the ground mixture make a feed preferable to clean, cut in the grain. A horse fed in this way will eat much lrss hay, tiian when fed on whole grain another saving of Fomo importance in a season like the present.

In tact horses kept in this way will do very well without any hay, which it is well known thev re

quire, when fed on grain unground. Every ton of straw thus ussd is fully equal to the saving of a ton of hay, adding toil the saving in grain. If it is true that a penny saved ii r.s good m a penny earned, I consider these suggestions of fomo importance. R. H.
