The farmer, moreover, was mounted upon a splendid mare, which Dickey, with his peculiar ideas on the subject of ”mum and team, at once resolved, by fair means or foul, to secure. He, therefore, willingly accepted the farmer’s h03pitable invitation to accompany him to his house in order that they might “ crack ” a bottle of wine in honor of their bargain. Pre- sently Dickey inquired of the farmer if he would sell him his mare ? “Sell you.my mare I” exclaimed his host, all aghast at tins proposition. “Sell you my mare! No, thank you!

He also contrived, by the exercise of his accustomed cun- ning, to leave such traces behind him as made the owner of the oxen certain that the freebooter had made off towards the Tweed. Thithcr he accor- dingly proceeded in hot haste. In the interim, however, Dickey had lost no time in “making tracks ” towards the west country, and so expedi- tious were his movements, that in a short time he reached Lanercost in Cumberland. Here he fell in with an old farmer onihorseback, who, being de- lighted with the appearance of the oxen, forthwith purchased them. . ‘â€"__ ceeamgs will be for me to relate the st ' of his exploits. cry or one taut three miles from Newcastle.

No farmer felt secure when he retired to rest at night that his cattle might not have vanished ere morning. So clev- erly, moreover, were all Dickey’s enterprizes con- ducted, that no man could ever succeed in mak- ing personal acquaintance with him. He openly set justice at defiance, and laughed at the futile efl'orts of the law to punish him. Perhaps, how- ever, the best way to illustrate the adroitness and good Incl: which characterized all Dickey's pro- ceedings will be for me to relate the story of one of his exploits. â€"â€" v-.. V. w. Almost all the rascals who followed this not unlucrative profession trusted chiefly to mere brute force to carry out eucsessfully their nefari- ous schemes. There was, however, one exception to this rule to be found in the person of a celebra- ted freehomer, known as “ Dickey of Kingswood.” This worthy Openly expressed his disapprobation of his rivals’ vulgar mode of following their pro- fession, and repeatedly boasted that he could achieve twice us much by his cunning as they could by their brute force.

Alas! the human mould’s at fault; And still by turns it claims A nobleness which can exact, A littleness that shamesl Of strength and weakness still combined, Compound of mean and grand; And trifles will thus shake the mind That would a tempest stand. Give me the soul-superior power, That conquest over fate, Which sways the weakness of the hour, Rules little things as great; That lulls the human waves of strife With words and feelings kind, And make .the trials of our life The triumphs of our mind. The man who with heroic heart Can stern misfortunes meet, Unflinchingly perform his part And struggle against defeat, With, faith unaltered, yet can lose His temper even for ought, Which falls not as his will would choose, Or proves not what he sought. Anti woman can forgive a wrong Which casts her on tha world, Far better than forgive the tongue That may some sneer have hurled; A thousand times prefer a. lot As hard as want. depletes, Than feel or think herself forgot By one her heart adores. How is it o’er the strongest mind That triflos hold such away ? A wordâ€"nay, even a look unkind- May darken all life’s day.

He forthwith rode up to an elderly man standing near, whom he judged to he the owner of the field, and exclaimed: 5‘ I my friend, those are my oxen in your field!

Presently, as the first gray streaks of day began to appear, Mr. Musgrave awoke, and feeling very cold and chilly, looked round to ascertain the cause. ‘0 his as- tonishment he found that all the coverlets had been taken off his bed, and that his blankets had been spread out upon the floor. For what pur- pose? thought Mr. Musgrave. Was he the vic- tim of some horrible nightmare, or was he really awake? Mechanically his eye glanced to the Spot where his mare should have been. She was not there! She was gown-stolen!

The inventor’s nerves were quite unstrung as soon as he gave life and thought to his meditation. F or twenty years he had lived almost a hermit’s life, and died only when his labors were about to produce their expected fruit.

We this week witnessed the type-setting and type-distributing machine, invented by Timothy Alpen, once a New York printer, but a native of Massachusetts. The invention cost twenty years’ labor, the life of the in- ventor, and $10,000 in money. It is impos- sible to convey to the uninitiated the utility and genius of this remarakable inVention.â€" It is perhaps enough to say that one machine is capable of sroducing the work of six or eight men, an with its cost placed at the high price of 31,500, it will reduce the price of ordinary type-setting, at present rates, from one-half to twmthirds. Its great sim- plicity is one of its most interesting qualities. The fruits it produces are as near to thinking and reading as one can imagine.

It is related of the soldiers of Alexander the Great, who were natives of the Mediterranean shores, that when they reached the confines of the Indian Ocean, and saw its waters rolling up to a great height, and then flowing back, twice every day, they became alarmed, and attributed the phenomena to a special interposition of the deities of the country which they had invaded. Various , . ‘1 I _"‘ V \U W W why they rise to the height of sixty feet in the Bay I of Fundy; forty feet in the ports of Bristol, Eng- land, and St. .Malo, France, ' also at its antipodes at the same time, thus pro- ducing the two tides every day. The tides are attractions of both the sun and moon. If the earth had no moon, the attraction of the sun would produce two tides every day, but their ebb and flow would take place at the same hours, not varying as they do now; these tides would also be much smaller than those of the moon.-- Although the mass or the sun is far greater than that of the moon, and though attraction is in pro- portion to mass, yet it is also inversely as the ' square of the distance. As the sun therefore is t four hundred times more distant than the moon, the attraction of the waters of the sea towards ‘ the sun is found to be about three times less than those of the moon. There are really two ocean tides, the lunar and solar, but the latter is ab- sorbed by the former, which is wholly observable in respect to the time, the solar only, as it influenâ€" 1 ces the heigh of the tidal wave. That caused by the moon is three times greater than that of the 5 sun, and it follows the moon’s motion around the j earth, rising and falling every twelve hours, and 1 each succeeding tide later by three-quarters of an hour than the preceding one, exactly in accord- ance with the positions of the moon, or, u it com- monly called, its rising and setting.

It was instituted in 1264 in honor of the Consecrated Host, and with a view to its adoration, by Pope Urban I V., who appointed for its celebration the Thursday after the {es- tival of the Trinity, and promised to all the penitent who took part in it, indulgence for a period of from forty to one hundred days. The festival is chiefly distinguished by magnifi- cent processions.
