- Expressite Simile . —The following description of s small room will appear very poetic to an English reader . " I am now , " says a Turkish 5 py ( writing to his employers , ) " in an apartment so little , that the least suspicion cannot enter it . " Pugnacity . — In noticing a number of children , we may easily distinguish between those , who are only occasionally passionate , and those who have an almost constant tendency to be quarrelsome The specimens of the first kind will colour up , cry , and call out when under an angry fit , and in this manner exhaust themselves and -die feeling at the same time : tht second example may also express in
a similar manner , but it will not do so passively , for , wb ' en once offended , it will have recourse to blows , or scratciiDg , or biting . Such irascible children shew their pugnacity on all occasions . They refuse to do any thing they are required to do , and always appear to delight in contradiction j yet it would be the" most egregious folly to strike or threaten them , fpr in such eases the b ' tde creatures are sore to lift their hand 3 and with extraordinary daring strike again . It is a difficult task to deal properly with juc-b tempers , or to legislate for the little tyrant of the nursery ; because be is insensible to iindnes ? or persuasion , and will exercise an overbearing swav , . acd seize with lawless selfishness upon the
tovs and playthings of his brothers or sisters , not so ranch from a desire of possession as from mere leve of contention ; and should force be employed in return , " then comes the tug of war , " —pulling , peshitg , crying , and kicking tc getpo . « e . < sion , —oce child claiming the toys by . right of property , and the other bv the right of the strongest , and from bis having accidentally possessed himself of them . The best plan in such a case is to ascertain to v . hom the property really belong , and to make restitution accordingly , impressing upon the aggressor the evil oi injustice , and upon the aggrieved parry the more noh ' e conduct of forbearance and kindness in similar
circumstances . It would be well to avoid exciting the combative principle at any time ; buthon-are we to avoid it ? Tor , it oiten occurs that children who are naturally pugnacious will evince their inverate tendency that way by refusing to hare what they at first cried for ; and , when such children are out of health , they act so much from mere opposition that they will almost make the most patten : irritable . If food- be placed before such a child , he pushes it from him or throws it down : take it away , and he cries for it : give it to him again and he renews the first proceedings . In such cases , after two or three trials , the child should be removed from the table into another room , and told that as soon as there is a sign of better conduct he may return . —Mental Culture , . or the metins of devtloping the human faculties , by J . L . Levison .
Traxsmigratiox or Sccls . —Among the oldest conceptions philosophically carried out by the Hindoos , the doctrine of the transmigration of souls and the means of terminating its wanderings is , undoubtedly , to be included . It is not unlikely that the doctr ine originally grew out of the conception of the perpetual flux of the powers of nature , and their change *' from one into another ; and , -berefore , it may have Iseen' at -first conceived in a purely material point of view . Subsequently , however , it -was understood in a more spiritual sense . The migration of souls was regarded by the Hindoos as a state of unrest and uuhappiness "; since the soul was held by it constantly subject to the power of death , and
exposed to the toil nf unt-eajoug transmutation ? , ^ itb this there naturally connt-cted itself a moral interpretation of life . This people seem to have been sensitively impressed with the sinfulaess of man , of the guilt with which he is burdened ; and , on this account , singularly possessed by a deep and solemn dread of the penalty which aw ails him at the eternal retribution . To this source must be referred the prayers so constantly recurring in all the ceremonies of India worship for pardon and preservation from sin . Hence , too , the opinion of the meritoriousne » s of expiations , and the extreme rigour of their penances . Bow , then , could they bt any charm in a life which was looked upon as an expiation for infinite transgressions of an extremely minute ceremonial
Jaw ? On .- this account , we find , from the n ! rie . » t times and in the elde > t Hindoo works , a continual longing to be emancipated from thin migration of tke soul , and the deme of happiness conceived as perfect rest . The only means of this emancipation are , as already stated , sacrifice and other ceremonial observances , particularly penance and the horse-sacrifice . In the rooTe recent ' philosophemes of the Hindoos we find , indeed , another mean , viz ., knowledge , free from all that is sensible , and exalted to the contemplation of the Infinite . That this mean was ab * o acknowledged by the very earliest philosophers of the Hindoos i ? evinced by the constant injunction n the Upanischads of internal meditation , and of a profound- and constant reflection on the being and nature of Goi . —RiUer ' s Uistury <> f sfneiem
Philosophy . . R oyal Pastime . —Two poor mortal * , elevated with the -distinction of a goldpn bauble on their heads , called a crown , take offence at each other , witKout any reason , or with the very bad one of wishing for an opportunity of aggrandizing themselves by making reciprocal depredations . The creatures of the court , and the leading men of the nation , who are usually under the inl ' . uence of the court , resolve ( for it " is their interest ) to support their royal master , and are never at a loss to invent some colourable pretence for engaging the nation in the horrors of w ? r . Taxes of the jnost burdensome kind are leried j soldiers are collected ; review * and
encampments succeed ; and at last fifteen or twenty thousand men meet on a plain , and coolly shed each other ' s blood , without the smallest personal animosity or the shadow of a provocation . The king ? , in the mean time , and the grandees , who have employed those poor innocent victims to shoot bullets at each other ' s heads , remain quietly at home , and amuse themselTea in the intervals of balls , bunting-schemes , and pleasures of erery species , with reading at the fire-side , and ' over a cup of chocolate , the dispatches of tie army , 2 nd the neW 8 in the extraordinary
GdJXUt . It may be we have left a thousand of the enemy dead on the field of battle , aDd only nine hundred of our countrymen . Charming news!—it was a glorious victory ! But before you give a loo . « e to your raptures , pause awhile ; and consider , that to every one of these 1900 slain , life was no less sweet than it is to yon ; that to the far greater part of them there probably were wjves , fathers , mothers , son * , 'daughters , sisters , brothers , and friends , all of whom are at this moment bewailing that event which occasions your foolish and brutal triumph .

Modekn Tiger . — " "Wh y did you quit your last place ? " said a gentleman to hig groom , who presented himself for the service of the cab , the other day ; " did Captain-B . discharge youP" " No . " "Was he . a bad master ? " On the contrary , a very good one ; gave good wages , plenty of liveries j and as much help in the stable as one could want . " " Then why leave his Service ? " "To say tbe truth , sir , " I found it rery disagreeable in winter time at Melton . Captain B . did not belong to the right club ^ or live in the first set , and then he was so very dull in the tilburv , I really could not stand i''" - -
Virtue of a Fee . —One of the most distinguished medical practitioners used to say , that he considered a fee so necessary to give weight to an opinion , that when he looted at Ms own tongue in t ; i . e glass , he slipped a guinea from one pocket into the other . , Lj and Onr . — A poor Yankee , on being asked the nature of his distress , replied , " that he had five oKi * and one in—to wit , out of money , and out of clothes ; out at heels , and out at the toes ; out of credit , and in debt .

He has got so low now that he can't raise five dollars . — American Paper .
Lights and Snuffers . — " Jack , " said a gay young fellow to his companion , " what possibly can induce those two old snuff-taiing dowagers to be here to-night at the ball ? I am sure they will not add in the least to the brilliancy of the scene . " " Pardon me , " replied the other , gravely , ¦ ' for not agreeing with you , but , for my part , I really think that where there are so many lights of beauty , there may be some occasion for a pair of snuffers . " The World Insolvent . —Some time ago , a publisher of periodicals applied for his discharge in tbe Insolvent Court , and described himself as " Proprietor of The World !!! " They must be hard times , indeed , when a man of such extensive property is reduced to the necessity of taking tbe benefit of the act !
Use of Bikch . —A writer on school discipline says , '' without a liberal u « e of the rod , it is impossible to make boys smart . " Presence of Mind . —If you should happen to meet with an accident at table , endeavour to preserve your composure , and do not add to tbe discomfort you have created by making an unnecessary fuss about it . I remember hearing it told of a very accomplished gentleman , that when carving a tough poose , he had the misfortune to send it entirely iut of the dish , and into the l :: p < -f a lady next to him ; on which , he vtry coolly looked her full in tfct Sacc , and said , " ihi ' atn , I wiil thank you for that i ; oose . " This manner of bearing such a mortifying accident eained him more credit than he lost by his awkward carving .
French Card . — "To the Great Eestorator Re-establisher , Before tbe Mint House . —There is Every Thing To eat , and to be had it ready at any Thime in The day , With neatness and delicacy . Parlours , and several Tooms , size disposed , for a Large , and Private society , nothing will be neglected for tbe best attendance . —N . B . Some furnish rooms for the foreigners and a Properplaee , for their horses they are prepared accordingly , " Equivocal CoiIPLlMEXT . —General Foss , an
American officer and supporter of Negro emancipation , upon a recent occasion made a very animated address on behalf of tbe coloured population . A dinner was given subsequently to the General , when one of the sable guests being called upon for a toast , was desirous of conveying by tbe sentiment he should give that the General , though he was a white man , was nevt-rtheles-5 full of sympathy for the Negroes . He therefore rose and gave , " Massa General Foss , he have white skin , but very black heart . "
Judas and his Sop . —Dr . Styles , in commenting on the perfidy of Judas in betraying nis divine master , said " the sop that he received was soaked in tbe lake of brimstone by tbe arch enemy of souls before be received it , that it might lull bis conscience to sleep . " " Well , " observed Hook , " that was indeed a sop-liorrific !" A Timely Repartee . —A soldier of Marshal Saxe ' s army , being discovered in a theft , was condemned to be banned . Wbat be bad stolen might he worth five shillings . The marshal meeting them a ? s he was Wing led to execution , said to him "What a miserable fool you were , to risk your life for five shilliniis " . ' "— "General" replied the soldier , ' -I have risked it erery day for live pence . '' This repartee saved his life .
A Woman ' s Promise . —Queen Elizabeth seeing a gentleman in her garden , who had not felt the eli ' eeu of her favour so soon a * he expected , looking out of her window , said to him in Italian , " What does a man think of , Sir Edward , when he thinks of nothing ? " After a little pause he answered , " Hf thinks , madam , of a icuman ' s promise " Tbe Queen felt the reproof , and as she drew back , was heard to say , " Well , Sir Edward , 1 must not confute you . Anger makes dull men witty , but it keeps them poor . " Honour . — A Welshman , bragging of his family , said his father's effigy was set up in Westminster Abbey . Being asked in what part of it , he replied , ' In the same monument with 'Squire Tbynne ' s , for he was bis coachman .
Be . vef / t of Covssel . —The uses of cross-examination were rather unmercifully exposed by Judge Parke , upon the trial of some rioters , when a learned gentleman , concerned for one of the prisoners , a > Ved some questions affecting another man , who had no counsel employed . "He is hot your client , " said the judge . " He is mine—do not hang my client , whatever you may do to jour o \» n . " This was passing sentence upon the unfortunate pleader , at all events .
Modesty . —Au Irishwoman once called upon an apothecary with a sick infant , when he gave her some powder , of which be ordered as much as would lie ou a sixpence to be given every morning . The woman replied , " Perhaps your honor would lend me the sixpence tbe while , as I have not got one by me at all . " Charles the Second's Comment on Rochester's Epitaph . —Charles tbe Second , in a gay moment , asked Lord Rochester to write bis epitaph , which he did immediately , as follows : — Here lies tbe mutton-eating king , Whose word no man relied on ; Who never said a foolish thing , Nor ever did a wise one .
Charle * , who always relished a jokt *> on being shown this epitaph , wrote the following comment upon it : —
If death could speak , the king would say , In justice to his crown , Hi ? acts tbey were bis minister's , His words they were hi * own I MlRACI . E 8 . ~ A priest , in cxlremepoverty , resolved to get credit for a miracle . He put the yolks of several eggs into a hollow cane , ana stopped the end with butter ; then walking into an alehouse , he begged to fry a single egg for his dinner . The stnallness of his repast excited curiosity , and they pave him a morsel of lard ; he stirred the lard with his catip , and , to the wonder of the surrounding peasants , produced a handsome omelet . This miracle established his fame . He sold omelets , and grew rich by his ingenuity .
Words and Deeds . —Those who expect to find good principles in persons who utter good sentiments , will sometimes be as much disappointed as the monkey that clawed at his shadow in a mirror : they may be misled by & just reflection , as he was . The Man aud the Moon . —During the wane of the last moon , Johnny Frost , alia * Knight of the Jack-Plane , of SaDdal , went toddliog homo about two o ' clock in the morning , somewhat giddy in his upper story . Tibby , his tetter half , of course bad retired to roost ; Johnny , not being pleased at that , sat down before tbe fire in a pet , and fell fast asleep . In about an hour ' s time ite awoke , and found himself all in the dark , except a small speck of light , which he took to be the remains of the
once bright fire . After feeling about for a short time . he found the bellows , the pipe of which he put into the keyhole of the door , taking it for the fire-grate , and commenced blowing with all his mi ght Tibby , on hearing a strange noise , hastened down , stairs to , see what was amiss , and on seeiag her husband behind tbe door , exclaimed , " Johnny , wotiver ista doin ?" " "Wha / 1 responded Jobnny , in a surly tone , " Am blawin t'fire np ta be rare , can't ta see ? " " Wha wot a stupid ninny -hammer thais , its nowt but t ' phadda at t / mooin thar blawin at ; gieowr and cam ta ted wi tba . "

LONDON COEN EXCHANGE . Mark-Lane , Monday , June 18 . There has been b heavy fall of rain since this day se-nnight , with a wore genial temperature , and it-w now very warm and gTowing vreather . From Essex , Runt , and Suffolk , the supply of Wheat was moderatel y good , but of . Barley , Beans , and Peas , from ail tfie *? : counties , very limited . Tnere was a fair frenh arrival of ^^ Dftts for this day ' s hyarket , ; principally from Ireland , haringsBfcreely any either English or Scotch upsihee Kriday . Very ^ high priceij being demanded for Wheat at the opening of this aurs market , ^ riy transactions were matenalVy checked , and it wasnot until therates of Friday were submitted to that our millers commenced to ptitchasej wheri a fair demand took place , but the advance on the currency of this day se ' nnight canuot generally be quoted more th-in 2 d per qr . Bonded Wheat was 3 d to 4 s . per dr . dearer , with many
bnypTs of this article . Town-made Klbur was partially fixed at 6 Ps per sack , but / the trade was not unanimous in the advance ; good marks ex-ship were held Is to 2 s per sack higher . Barley , Beans , and l'eas ; realised full its much , with a moderatesale for all these articles . Malt was without any alteration in value . ¦ There was a fair sale for Oats , at abbut the rates of this day se'rinight ; for althougU the quantity frofn lrebnd continue * pretty ^ extensive , bo _ few come from our own coast and Scotland * and the consumption being very great , the factors show no inclination to submit to lower rates . Supplies from Ireland may now fall off , and -in . consequence , ^ a better trade will be experienced . Linseed and Rapeseed were much the saniK as last week . [ If the farnvCTB have any idea that they can stop , or even check , the importa tion of foreign Wheat , they must supply the markets better and more quick ( y than they are accustomed to do at this season of the year , particularly as prices from week to week continue to advance , and are now at a satisfactory
and remunerating point to encourage them to part with nil they hold , for . th * stocks being so low hi the merchants' and factors' hands , foreign must be liberated before harvest at a tow duty , unless the fanners have it in their power to sdpply the trade largely , which will be doubled should not a greater . quantity come forward almost immediately .
