MISCEIXANEOIS.

I rao* TB* serros ATUI. KIAGARA FALIJ5.~^p Traveller. Yoar letter found meitiil liWiring at the Niitg ora Falls. There is a magic circle drawn aIwind that magnificent spot which binds you to it (ikeaa iron chain. You are not paralysed by feat, bot you are absorbed in #on«ler at thenppartsntiy uiidecujmg Rrandeur, the exhattsliess beauty, and the imperisliable strength of that noble exhibition of nature. The scene is trne emblem of irresistible and eternal jnaje*

OB arriving at the American side, Irastted up the rocky precipice with a vivacity that defied fatigue, and gazed with a sort of saragejoy upon tbi» radiant front of the mighty avaJanch|» of foaca which falls in one on broken line upon the bate beluw. I felt like a king npon n»y inountain throne. Even the tufted crest of the overhanging beetle brow, seemed like the rich cnrled head of some youthful conqueror looking over a battle ground. Here, the slave would forget his bolts, and pride of pedigree aud wealth would desert the prince. Q'befeody lessens, but the Soul expands beneath (he weight of such unlimited grandeur.

You cross over the rapids, finer than any on the St. Lawrence, to Goat Island—and there stand on a single plank, with the ability to clear the fall by a single vigorous leap, if yon choose, while the waters are jumping and foaming beneath you. Believe me, it draws more uulimitedly than I shall upon your confidence, to stand thus trembling in the land of danger. The £mpedocles who should attempt that jump,, should leave bis boot* behind to clear hia posthumous fame—otherwise clumsiness would most assuredly be the verdict.

One of the finest views of the Horse Shoe Fall, is certainly from the bridge on Terrapin rocks about three hundred feet from the shore. It seems as if ttreatns from a thousand bills had met and were rushing dowu in a single wave, heaving mountain of mist and foam against the skywhile the beautiful Iris, as you gaze with fear and trembling upon the boiling gulph below, rests upon an embroidered scarf upon a snow-white breast ot the billows.

There is another splendid view from a ""lately erected tower near the bridge, which I may chal lengo the one on Table rock to competition.— You ure raised far above the mighty torrents, and have a perfect view of all the Fulls.

I sat up late one night to sco the cataract by moonlight, but I was disappointed. The moon was on tbo wane, and the lunar-bow was missing, which a young lady there told me was inagnifiuont. And so it must be. With a broken heart on the boicH and not the beWt account, I went to bed. O! a man may see the ocean turn cd up from its bottom by the tempest, and the desert stirred by the whirlwind, and the wilderuessin conflagration, but if ho see not the Cat aract of Niagara, my malison rest upon his fol•j-

Sophia/ is (jot the !4n™' church whose history is of a highly interesting character, resulting fropi one of the most impc. tant revolutions ever ejected by religious fanaticism, or which ever the world. Itwa* ^"22* I., but will deetroyml *1 an eartbqnake. subsequently ret*SR by troyed by In, which, consumed nearly the eBtJra cHy of onstantinople. That•, potentat* *hen *«Ut the present church or

sentution of winch uccomptTRied thft mtmotv.^Thc doruo of the Temple is very faulty, and contributes to give the enliro building a dcctdcd|y inferior effect, compared with others iti the city and especially that of the bultnn Achmct, which is probably* ono of the most superb Mosques in the possession of Islamism. The sight of this Temple awakens a thrilling interest in him whom study has roaile acquainted with the

of Byzautium arid, whatever beliei he emhraces, he cannot contemplate, without a deep feeling, the cite over which once floated, all thoprido of Roman greatness, the banner of Christianity. This Mosque is splendidly situait is visible from every direction—from tho lorus—the harbour, and the sea of Marino-

ted Bosphorusra.

It is not the privilegaof Christians to vint it but to theiu other Mosques are comparatively accessible. There is no inconsiderable chivalry neoessarv on these occasions and, indeed, the life of the Christian visiter, when thus detected in the gratification ofhi* curiosity, is not considered too great it saCflfice to the offended spirit of Islamism. On tbe occasion of a v.«t by a late Christian traveller to this Mosque,,the I man would not enter, so convinced was he of tbejU err attending it. This individual, and another, changing their hats for feies, and otherwise substitutinc the most admissible costume, reacnet the vesUbulo where they took off their shoe, (a necessary eefemony) ami entered. 1 b«r stay in the Mosqd# was not very accommodating^ their curiosity, and le« so to their personal «fetyasft precipitate retreat alon_e preserved to of their existtence.

The beholder of this trophy, won ly the most daring rerolutipbiit of tb« day, from defeated Christianity, cannot, in surveying it hut lift tbo lid under wbi«b the hi value past in burietl. The Temple of St. Sophia posses** verv superior claim to the contemplation of very superior^ historical

Indeed,

Christians' but looking as it i» a mew historical rtcord, it is not wncb less attractive Constantinople, or Stamboal, as »t been cnUed, is one Of those spoU, which, whoa, viewed from any approach to the city, is the evidence of L,.,.,grcatoM** Ther.^ dnritir so mawj centunfes of exlrtcuce, have ooen to much spared from the destructive

of he most elective *tewe of St. Sophia^, in coaaexioa with that «f city,» obUiaed I from tbe ta*i uut, Seradtlii** t#W,

yofc view a panorama which words cannot describe. Oa this subject the late and descriptive traveller, Slade, observes: 'Tbe aeqoedact of Valeds, the s^ven towers, St. Sopbia, the seraglio domes, the Propontis— circles of beauty studded with ocean gems—Mount Olympus, the gloomy grand cemetry, the wide flowing Basphorus, the golden born, cover ed with caiques gliding like silver fish, are a few only of tbe features beneath kirn. Long may be took before being able to trace any plan in the dense mass of iuhabitants that cover the bills and fill the valleys, which are so thickly planted and so widely spread, that the countless mosques ami public batbs and numerous khans, besides the cbarsheys, (of a moderate city's dimia sions) are scarcely noticed for the space they oc cupy although, in other respects they attract at tention, for no one can look at the seven bills, each crowned with a superb mosque, with up roerous smaller ones on their sides,without beiug duly impressed with the piety of the Ottoman monarcbs and of their favorites, unsurpassed, save in Rome. Their good taste has led them to imitate St. Sophia, the Turkish architects have improved on themodel, and their taste and vanity combined to trect them on the roost command ing spots, whereby Constantinople is embellish ed to a degree it could not have been in the time of the empire that is, in an external view, sincerely hope that whenever tbe cross displaces the fercscent^which it must do) a mistaken zeal for religion will not remove the stately minarets Another pictorial charm, which it also owes to Mubselmnn customs, is the union of the colon, green, white, and rod, visible in tbe cypresses, the mosques, and jthe dwellings. The perpetual and varied contrast is food for the eye, and excitement for the mind. We leave Pera, and in five minutes are in scenes of Arabian nights.— The shores of the Bosphorus realize our ideas or recollections of* Venetian canals, or the Euphrates' banks. Women, shrouded like spectres, mingle with men, adorned like actors. The Frank's hnt is seen by the Dervish's Calpack the gaudy armed chavass by theNirara dgeditt the servile Qfeek by the haughty Moslem: and the fhll-blown Armenian, by the spare Hebrew.— Tbe charsheys resound with Hubel's tongnes, the streets are silent as

Pompei's.

who was admitted into the Marine Hospital of Brest, in 1775. On opening the abdomen, the stomach was found to be entirely displaced, occupying the left hypochondriac region. In removing the heart and Jongs, the oesophagus was discovered lobe ruptured near the middle, and a piece of wood was found to extend through the whole of this channel to the fitomaeh. All the physicians, surgeons and pupils, counected with the Hospital were now collected", tiud the exutn ination was contitiued in their presence! But little was tnown of Brazile, except that he was naturally ah vp&chondriaC,«nd almost an idiot or rather ir rufftuac. He fiat? been thirteen years a marine before he was sentenced to the gallies.— His appetite was known -to be voraOiotis, arfd his comrades stated that when very hnngry he would swallow small stones, coat buttons, bits of leather, and other small bodies. The following is the Inventory of tbe articles found in his stom' ach: 1. A piece of a barrel hoop, niueteen inches long, one inch broad. 2.

Rules for Letter Writing

1* Date your letter at the top, near the right hand side of the paper.

3. Sign your name at full length, and as legibly as possible. Let your signature be near the right hand side of the paper and the name and address of the person written to, near the band side, and lower down. 4. Always leave a blank spaoe for the Wafer, so that no part of your writing may be lost^iu breaking the seal. 5. When practicable, fold your letter so that

,Unmi to ck, of

James Jackson,

Fulton street

New York.' This serves os a guide to the let-

large citie,. It also serves to discriminate between two persons of tbe same name. 10. For tbe same reason, it is sometimes adr visabl to insert the occupation ojfioe, or profes»ioa, of tbe person adtfeesiod Mr. James Jackson, Merchant, &,c.

^CREIUL1TV IN INDIA. Ii An amnsing aneodote, relatotl by Bishop He* her, gives us a good idea of th« foibles and ignor* auco of ono of the petty princes of India, and the rascality of the minister who managed his affairs. The fondness of tho king for mechanics (says the bishop,) led him to try some experiments, in which he foil iu with a .Mussluman engineer of pleasing address and ready talent, as well as considerable, though unimproved, genius for such pursuits. The king took so much delight in conversing with this man, that the minister began to«fcar a rising competition, as well knowing that the meanness of his own birth ami functions lmd been no obstacle to his advancement. He therefofe seht the engineer word—"if ht was wise to leave Lucknow." The poor mail did str, re* moved to a place about te^ miles down the river, and set up.a shop there. The king, on enquiring after his humble friend, was. told that lie was dead of the cholera ordered a gratuity to be sent to his Mridow and children, and no more was said. Some time after, however, the king sailed dowu the river in his brig of war,as for as the place where the new shop stood. Ho was struck with the different signs of neatness aud ingenuity which he observed passing, inrftle his men draw intr shore, nud to his nttoriishment, saw the decease? engineer, who stood trembling, and with joined
