One morning mj attention was arrested at Laurel If ill, (Trinidad,) by a nnrober of bl.tckbirdt appearance wa« foreign to n»e they werefmaiier bnt not enlikc the English ertjw, and were pc*rched «m a calabaslt tree near the kitchen. I atked I), who that moment came up from the garden, what oou'd be the catice of the appearance of

The open mftcrs of a West India Itoufo at all time* nFord shelter to a numerous tribe of insects, mora particular by ths cock ro tch :but row their destruction was inevitable. Tho chasseur tint*, ns if trained to battle, ascended in regular thick files to tlie rafter#, nnd threw down the cock-roa-ches to their comrade# on the floor, who as regttlurly tunrehed oil with tho dond hodiut of the cock-roach#*, dragging thciu away by their unifed eflbrt* with amnzinj rapidity. Mithrr the cock-roaclx wtre stung to death on the rafter*, or el«e tho full killed them. The tints n*ver stoppod to dtvour their pre) ,but conveyed all to their stofi-house*. The windwnrd windows of the room were glas*,&a battlo now ensued between tho ants untl jutk-spaniiird!', hotly pursued on the pane? of glas*. The jack spauinrd amy be callcd the wasp of tbo \Vc»t Indie* it is twioo as largo a* a British wa«p and its sting in proportion is more painful. It builds its nest in trees and old houses, and sometimes in the rafters of a roolb. The jack-spatiiarili wero not quite such easy prey, for they used their wings, which not

At tbia moment I was called on to break fast,and thinking it wa« sotno mpcrititiom idea of D*i. pajjj no fnrtlter attention to it. In about two hour* after this, I observed an uncommon number vf chafed* ants crawilinjj about the floor

tbo room my children were annoyed by tlit-ui, iu»d «eat«'d |hcia«??.ve*o»« a-table, where their teg? did not cdrmuunicatc with the floor.

Thejr dtl not crawl tipon my person, bnt I wn* now iwrrounded by them. Shortly after this the wall* of the room bceamc eor&rcd by them, and next they began (o take pttsteuion of the tabk$ and chair*. I next thought it necessary to takerefuge in an adjoining room, separated only by a few ascending step# from the one we occupicd and tiii* wa* not accomplished without great care and generalship for, had wo trodden upon one, we should have been summarily punished. There were severul ant* on the steps of the stair, but they were not near so numerous as in the room we had left, but the tipper room presented a singular specl:tolo for not otdy were the floor and walls covetied Jike tho other room, but tho roof was covero4also.

and the brokers in Wall street all hizzy about it and the Btddlo-s bills goin about, and most folks thinkin they are better than bard dollars and all the old men and women bold in the stack*, tposin it will go up again as high as ibey paid for it and and tbc (iincral, and Antos Kindle and Mr. Van Burcn, talkin over it and one line in the Message nocks it all into kindlia wood. For you see wbea "Tbe Government" says a thing must be jest so! there is bo help for it.— \Y« cant stand to chat about trifles. The Mineral smashed three pipes the last time we talked about it. ''Biddlc and tho Bank must bo mash* ed," says be, ''.Major"—and smash they go, Kongrisor no Kougris.

Tho n«xt thing was the Ihgins.a Here the Gincral is at home and dont pretettd td say nothin, for I .never did like an Ingin, and never oan. Tho Cherokee* give us a good deal of tr^tble in goorgia last year but the Gineral took sides with Georgia, because he bad a good many friends there, aud Mr. \*Hiv.Q£ireit had too for that state was tbo only ono that nominated him Vice I'tesident a spell ago and if ho hud got in there, and Mr. Crawford ['resident, who was ailin all over with somo plagy applrpUxy—I and the Gineral would never hafe been heard on arterwards. But no n»attvr---lho Gineral says be diu'nt make that treaty with the Cherokee*— and it was made so long ago bo has neymost forgot it—and treaties ougbtent to last forever.— But this treaty with the Creeks in Alabama he did make, and be knows all about it, and he means to stand by it, turn all tho squatters oil" the land in Alabama, jest as they wanted him to do in Georgia—but ho would'ut. There is trouble cnuf about if, I tell you, and you dont know no thin about it iu York. But thcGineral is tickled to death about it and as soon as be saw tho Proclamation of the Governor of Alabafna, you never see a critter so spruced up ns the Gineral was. Major* says lie, by tho eternal, we shall have another Nullification this Kongris arte all. You need'nt iay much about it, says he, in the Message—we'll keep that for a proclamation. Well, says I, Gineral, you area master hand ut gittin into trouble. But, says be. Major, nint I a muster one at gittin out of one] says he.

Wc-ve got an old trunk up chamber, full of trubels, old Law?, and Treaties* and .Contracts, anil Stato Claims, and whenever we want any powder, uM ivevc gut to do is to open that, antl snook aiuoftg old papers, and get up a row in no time. The Gineral likes this a leetle better tban I do—for the most pni of the labor falls on me antl the only way I can git rid of it is to make onr folks down stairs do it, if I sec it gives any of cm a boost with his parly—for I dont care nothin about atiy thing here but the Gincral, antl if I can get him threw this Kongri*, its prilty much nil I enre about,untl ho too forartcr that, I'me goin with him to the Hermitage, -for I expect by that time there wont be much more left of us than our beards antl shoe strings.

Why u*dt*d*

June 16th, 1806, when the Sun waAotally obstructed at Bcstofj, for five minutes, as much Hight remained ns is given by the Moon when foil: nnd greater darkness will not probably be experienced, in any pl tcc, on the present occasion.

Throughout the United States, er, a great depression of the thermometer, if placed in the Sun, will probably be noticed and, for some minutes before and after the moment of greatest obstrtition, the power of a lens to produce combustion, condeasing the solar rnys, will be quite,if not entirely,destroyed. At that time of thc annulai^clipse of February i'ith, 1S31, it was observed by thcRdltor, that the thermometer in the Sun, fell from 7"J to mid that during the continuance of (he ring, no sensible etFect was produced by placing its blackened bulb in the focus of a powerful burning glass.

This Lclipse, as will beseea op J^nci^g thc* path of thc rentre, will be total in a small part ol" the Tcrrilory W' ArlmTTSS^j and of ihe States of Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia antl South Carolina. The principal places, in which the obscurity will probably be complete, are Charleston, Beaufort, S. C., Savannah, Milledgcville, Tuscaloosa and Little Rock. The greatest duration of total darkness in any place, will be about lm. 56s. at Tuscaloosa, it will be about lm. 53s. and at Becufort, lm. 10s these places lying very near the central path. At Charleston and Savannah, (he duration will bo considerably less, the former being situate about forty miles north of this path, tho latter about thirty south. Hi io width of thc line of total darkness varies in its passage across the Earth, but in the United States will be aboulone hundred miles. Those of the inhabitants of the Atlantic State?, who desire to behold this rare spectacle, the most magnificent and sublime of thc phenomena of nature, compared with which even Niagara sinks into mediocrity, will find Beaufort thc 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 agniu, for the space of thirty hve years, pass over any part of thc inhabited portions of the United States, or until August7th, 1869.

As, at tbc time of the Eclipso of Feb. 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 coloured, it may be proper to remark that should the sky during thc continuance of

.. go to Faro again, io make a eondhiitigt sale to a negro buyer, of favorite housemaid given by her father, and by this means got the turn of §300. And off I went to Faro again, and before the next moi ning had not one dollar', in consequence

I was compelled, the next dny, to confirm the sale of the girl and when she was taken from the fcouse, the distress it brought my poor wife and children would hav« almost brought t$ars from the eyes of savttge* -I determined then to end my existenco bvn dose of laudanum, and bought an ounce for that purpose, b«t my heart failed me, and 1 threw it way, determined to try and reform, for the sake of my dear wife, and my children, whom I had brought to beggary by my imprudence, and who arc now dependent on her fntlierfor their datly bread. •.

Out with all my ill f«»te I have the cori^1 solution of reflecting that I have seen thc error of my ways. During the lime that I was in the habit of visating'the Faro Dank, a youth from the connt^yof Gloucester was sent hero by his father to sell the only little negro boy he had, for the purpose of discharging an execution acainst him. In trying to cftect sale, he fell with some Black Legs, who kindly oflb'rar

to assist him ia doing «o. Tltb offer he Accepted, and a sale was soon made. He wn»*fc«tt tu\t3 titiir*"** ted, and from thence to a Faro Bank, where he was swindled out of every cent, lie then sold his horse, saddle apd bridle, antl returned to the Faro bank where hes was swindled out of that. They thcii started him home on foot, and on reaching his fathers house, he found thc old man at work. This was more than he could stand, and he deliberately took dotvna rift© and shot a ball through hi3 own head.-— The first knowledge the father had of his return* was the sight of his lifeless body.

FROM THK BOSTON foST. W

The Newport Spectator ascribes Zerafl Colburtrs wonderful mathematical powers, to the fact that when his mother was mcicnte with him, she met with much difiiculty in preparing a net for the loom, untl was obliged to desist late at night and retire to bed. She fell into a disturbed slumber—in which a vision of tho web antl loom were pictured in her imagination— in her sleep she untangled the yarn, woo! and warp, and every end to its proper place and in the meantime imwu-iod h^r con Ute wyviderrni powers of calculation. In the morning till the difficulty in fixing tke web, which existed the previous evening, hid vanished. Thc Spectator gives the fact upon tho authority' of a"rcH spectahle gentleman"—who establishes his doctrine by thc following singular case, for the truth of which he pledges his reputation.

There is a young man in the town of
