dueing; live without working; occupy all public place?, without being competent to hll them; seize upon ail honors without meriting them; that is aristocracy." From the Cincinnati Commercial Register. It is gratifying to perceive that while our tltention is daily solicited to new and uset'll inventions in everv Dart of the IJnitpd

j States, our own city is not destitute of men i whose talents and ingenuity in the discov i cry and construction of useful instruments, ; and labour-saving machines, equally entitle j them to the attention and patronage of their fellow citizens. Our attention has been j attracted to this subject on the present oc j casion from having recently examined an i instrument which has long been a desider atutn in mathematical operations. It is i callec by the inventor, Mr. Jesse Reader. j a Universal Mathematical Measuring Instrummt. -It is calculated to afford new facili

ties in taking courses and distances, without the use of any other instrument. It will therefore supercede the use of the chain Szc. in acertaining the length of any right line, enabling a person, without changing his station, to take the course and distance to an object by observation and inspection on the instrument, instead of the ordinary plan heretofore used for taking

held notes. It will readily be perceived ; that this will be a great acquisition to sur- ! veyors, and wc congratulate them upon the di-covery of an instrument which will so much diminish their labor. ; Another invention which has attracted I our notice, is a machine by Mr. Thomas ! Wright, a plasterer, for the cutting of ; laths, which, when in successful operation, will wonderfully abridge the labor of ma- ; king that indispensable article. As it is . not yet in full operation, we shall defer a description of it to some future. day.

A party of the Florida Indians have lately killed j imlf li-t-il (Creek), on the ?us picion that he had poisoned one of their fellows, to whom he had given medicine, and who died. This happened on the plantation of mnj.

Aristocracy. When Gen. Foy was once entering, with much fervor, into a political discussion in the French chamber of deputies, and had just pronounced the word aristocracy,' voice from the ministerial side asked him for a definition to it. "Aristocracy," answered he, at once and

more singular by the demise of one so inti

mately connected with the father of his country. fyjncustcr Journal. who would not contribute one cent to relieve the necessities of Mr. Jefferson while living, are amongst the loudest in extolling him now dead. This is the difference between the tongue and pocket. "Touch my money, touch my life" our patriotism, or love of patriots, does not, too often, extend so f.ir as to reach our purses.

We sec in an eastern paper a great deal j of sensibility about a revolutionary soldier,!

for a debt of 10 or 12 dollars, though he j had bled at Bunker's Hill:, and it is put to

j proper season, would have relieved us ot

that which is cast upon us, by its posthumous operation, as a disgrace upon the land; and it said "humanity shudders at the recital" of what a small matter of no ing would have prevented a great deal of talking about.
