BY II. SOUTHWKLD, Shun delays, they breed remorse ; Take thy time, while time be lent thee ; Creeping snails have weakest force ; Fly their fault lest thou repent thee. Good is best when soonest wrought ; Ling'ring labours come to nought. Hoist up sail while gale doth last, Tide and wind stay no man's pleasure ; Seek not time when time is past, Sober speed is wisdom's leisure. After-wits are dearly bought, Let thy fore-wit guide thy thought, Time wears all his locks before, Take thou hold upon his forehead ; When he flies he turns no more. And behind his scalp is naked. Works adjourned have many stays ; Long demurs breed new delays. Seek thy salve while sore is green, Fester'd wounds ask deeper lancing ; After cures arc seldom seen, Often sought, scarce ever chancing. Time and place give best advice ; Out of season, out of price. MY FATIIF.IVS JT THE HELM. Twas when the sea, with awful roar, A little bark assailed, And pallid fear's distracting power. O'er each on board prevailed. Save one, the Captain's darling child, Who steadfast viewed the storm ; And cheerful, with composure smiled At danger's threat 'ning frown. Why sporting thus," a seaman cried, ' While terrors overwhelm ?" " Why yield to fear?" the boy replied;

I do not recollect to have seen any formula on the resistance of bands, by which a comparison between their utility ar.d toothed wheels may be es'imated. and I have not time to investigate the matter, were I competent to the undertaking: but it is evident a priori, that the friction must be very considerably diminished by the use of bands. By adopting them we get rid of the disagreeable noise which attends the movement of toothed machinery, and also save considerable expense in construction and repairs. We have been led to these remarks from having understood that Messrs Sellers & IVnnock have applied a band of about a foot in breadth to propel a saw of the ordinary dimensions lor sawing timber It answers extremely well, and I think the application discovers research judgment that is highly worthy of imitation, whether circumstances will justify the innovation on common practice. Mechanics' Magazine. . Eftiqucftc Extraordinary A young man from one of the middle counties of Pennsylvania, haying lately made a trip to Wash ington city, to gratify curiosity,
and to do a little business, after a
stay of a few days, became so much attached to the manners and customs of the place, that on his return home, he expressed a great dislike to the simple rules of his father's family. Being called to dinner one day (about two hours after he had risen for morning) he somewhat pevishly exclaimed -" O mother what makes you dine so early like the vulgar people ? No body dines in Washington, except the poor people & mechanics before 3 o'clock ; all others in proportion to their rank." " Rank ! Johney, (said the old woman) in a republican government ! Well, tell us what time of day the gentlemen dine." John's eyes sparkled with pleasure, bVmg invited to speak on his favorite to pic. Private gentlemen, mother, dine at 3 o'clock people of fashion never dine till 4 officers 'qf the navy at 5 gentlemen of the cabinet at 6 foreign embassadors at 7 and 44 And when (interrupted the old lady) does the president dine O ! why mother, he never dmes till the next day " MANAGERS' OFFICE.

This is the most magnificent Scheme that has ever been offered for the patronage ot Lottery adventure in America. The small number of Tickets, and the unexampled demand for them, is a sufficient warrant, that there will not be a chance left, for weeks befoie the day fixed for the draw ing, and that the price of Tickets will shortly rise to g60.
