Some weeks ago, we spoke of a Yankee corn grinder, lately invented, which increased the corn in quantity as well as in nutritive poser, a statement which aroused the criticism and amusement of our friends, among whom was the editor of ihe Transcript, but it is true nevertheless, as many witnesses are ready to vouch. Now we have another Yankee invention to speak of. We cay on Saturday at a chaise manufactory in this town a piece of board, or rather a s'tce of bass aooc, which was sawed off by a saw lately invented by Mr. Job White, an ingenious mechanic in Relfast which machine, we are informed, is so constructed as to taw

A WHITE NIXSHO. Mrs. Lee, in "The Friendship's Offer ing,1' gives a very entertaining account of a v isit lo Empoougwa, on the eastern coast of Africa. She says: "Feb. 18, I was fif ty miles up the river Gaboon, nine minutes north of Ihe line. The vessel in w hich I had embarked for England, tvas obliged to take in a cargo ot red wood and ebony in this river, and as the lading occupied nine weeks, I had plenty of leisure to be come acquainted with the inhabitants of Empoongwa, for so was the petty king dom called, close to w hich we had station ed ourselves " Mrs. Lee, describing a visit on shore, sag; "1 turned round and beheld the most hideous form which had ever met my gaze. It was what the called a white negro, wilh all the features .f his race, blue eyes, yellow hair, and a pink shrivelled dsin. My conductors hur ried -r. past hi 3i, saying ho. was a slave

from the inteiior." Mrs. Lee twice again!

mentions the white negro, the hrst time as a musician. She was asked to hear music,and says: "I screwed upmy courage to hear all sotts ot Imrbarous sounds; but to my great astonishment, a rapid and perfect succession of chords, from a sweet toned harp, burst upon my ear, I turned to look at the perlormer, and neneiu lue - . . t . i white negro! I was, however, so pleased at ihe music, that I soon forgot my disgust at the unsightly performer. I was told that he had brought the harp from the interior, where such instruments are com mon; and that he was considered a crazy person, but valued on accouut of his musical powers. While playing, he appeared wholly unconscious of all around.1' Their Dext meeting was not so agreeable. "1 was, as I supposed, alone in the sitting room, and crossed to the opposite side to fetch my gloves, when suddenly something sprung on me from behiod, with a tearful grasp and howl I found it was the white negro. The yell which I uttered, soon brought assistance, and I w as rescued from the maniac's clutches. It seems he had not, owing to his defective sigh!, seen me. perfectly till that time, and his asdooish ment made him franc ti A tnan devoured by Tigers.

Another Fish Story On Monday of last week, a large animal was discovered in the water neur Hodgdon'a Mills, by a female, who happened to be walking near the shore. She immediately commenced stoning him with so much dexterity as to succeed in driving him ashore, when she with another female, belabored him so un mercifully as to render his aquatic majesty unable to regain his n rve element. One of the ladies then informed her father of the circumstance, who immediately yoked his team and hauled the animal into his field. It proved to be a Blackfish. 12 feet in length and more than three in diameter. He was exhibited to crowds of spectators who came to see him, more at this new mode of fishing than with the curiosity of the 'fish. He produced nearly two barrels of oil. This should be a warning to all sea ser i i.i i, . . . i Under the head of "Caution" the Port land Advertiser has tba following curious statement: "There are but few persons who appre hend any danger from the Sun, when its rays enter their houses Rut the Sun may set a house on tire.

ADVICE TO A BKIir.

I 1 1 1 1 n o not tor perfect happiness, " said Madam .e Maintenon to the Princess n. Savoy, on the eve of her marriage wit.i :he Duke of Rurgundy; "there is no eucli thing on earth, and though there were, it does not consist in the possession of nchf Greatness is exposed to afflictions oteu more severe than those of a private station. Re neither vexed, nor ashamed to denenrl nn vour husband. Let him be vour dearest friend, your only conhdeut. Hope not for constant harmony in the married state. The best husbands and wives are those who bear occasionally Iroai each other a!hesof ill humor with patient mildcess. Re obliging, without putting great value on your favors. Hope not lor a lull return nf tenderness. Men are tyrant?, who would be free themselves and have us confined. You need not be at the pains to examine whether their rights be well founded; it is enough if they aie established. Pray God to keep you from jealousy . The affections of a husband are never to be gained by complaints, reproaches, or sullen behaviour." The Susquehanna Gaz. oi the 29lh of Oct. says, "During a storm that occurred on the night of Thursday week, Dr. Rar8 tow, of Susquehanua, with his wife and one or two children, were travelling a fee miles above Tunkhannock, in a carriage drawn by two horse9. When the stoim was at the top of its fury, and while the carriage was passing a part of the road kirted by trees, a hemlock tree, two feet or more in Diameter, fell suddenly, and J hordes must have been killed, or had it been delayed one instant longer, it would doubtless have crushed into atoms every I individual in the carriage. The hard frost which fell during the night of the 2lst int. has, we understand, very materially injured the Sugar Crop throughout Attakapas. We hear that some of the planters are cufting dowa their cane, to preserve it as much as possible, and to prevent acidity. Perhaps this is a prndent 6tep, as the weaiher, since the freeze, has become quite mild. Attabipas Gazette. A Child Partly Devoured by Rats. The, fuJ. lowinp is irom u.e u.my inn ingencer or yeten'ay : "A poor woman who street Hbove Callowhill, in a kitchen cellar, much infested bv rati, (ucl is the Jut of the poor,) heard her infant in tle course of the night wailing with a faint and interrupted cry Wearied n ith the toil of the day, and supposing it merely the fretl'alness of infancy, the addressed herself again to sleep. Aga n she was awakened, and hearing the rats at their infernal revel, she lighted a candle und hastened to the cra.JJe. The sight that met her eyes was most frightful A number of large rats were feeding upon her infant, "i he child was already bathed in its blood, and its face and Jimbs horribly mangled by the animals.

BANK ROBRERY. The Mechanic's Bank of this city, was on Sunday last entered by some villians, through the aid of false keys, and robbed cf 395 dollars in specie. It is supposed that the robbery was committed during the day, as the Bank is guarded by a spet ial watchman during the niht. The robbers appear to have e;onc to work with the utmost coolness and deliberation. Alter effectin their entrance, they proceeded to strike a buhi, uad then made an effort to gain acce.-s to the interior of a fire proof hook-ca-e, where they no doubt expected to meet with an abnndanto of plunder. They were unable to break through the iron-bound wall of the case, and proceeded to search elsewhere. In one of the des-ks, they discovered a pile of email hoies, each containing 10V0. The contents of four of them were secured and carried off. Philadelphia Times. Mechanics' Wives. Speaking of fhe mid-lie ranks of life, a good writer observes "There we behold woman n all her glory not a doll to carry silks and jewels; not a poppet to be flattered by profane adoration, reverenced to day, discarded to morrow; always jostled out of the place w hich nature and society would assign her by Fenualify or by contempt; admired, but not respected; desired, but Dot esteemed; ruline by passion, not affection ; imparting her weaknfw, not her constancy, to the sex she would exalt; the source and mir ror of vanity. We see her a wife, partaking the carts and cheering the anxiety of a husband; dividing hi toils by her domestic diligence; spreading her cheerfulness around her; for his sake sharing the decent refinements of the world, without being vain of them; placing all her joys and her happiness in the man she loves. A a mother, we fi id her the af. fectionate, the ardent instructress of the childie.o whom she has tended from their intanry; training them up to thought and virtue, to piety and benevolence, addressing them as rational beings, and preparing them to become men and women in tuin. Mechanics' daughters make the best wives in the world." CO-ALOXfi.
