A remarkable character was Peter Cartwright. He was a great anti-slavery man, and struck right and left to all who opposed him. One day, on approaching a ferry across the river Illinois, he heard the ferryman swearing terribly at the sermons of Peter Cartwright, and threatening that if ever he had to ferry the preacher across and knew him, he would drown him in the river. GENERAL ADVERTISEMENTS [From the New York Weekly.] THE WILD MARCH WIND. It ia only when tome excitement carries me oat of myaelf, as it were, that I lose this sense of weariness. follow from the observance of the simplest of these rules; it k well with us when we are right. For instance, by holding myself erect and breathing sufficient quantities of pure air I shall be more elastic and graceful ia my movements; and if my longs are fully expanded and strong, my roice will be clearer and sweeter, and my chest more full and rounded. Are not graceful movements, and a musical voice, and a beautiful bust rare attractions? The improvement in my complexion may be taken into the account also; and the greater sprightliness of body and mind, I feel will animate the expression of my eyes and thus increase my beauty. Certainly, if my mind and body were properly active my features would be more expressive of pleasant feelings and thoughts; intelligence beautifies the face, and peaceful emotion would be sure to give gentleness to my voicc. Oh, there is no calculating the advantages that will flow from one right habit! And, besides, it makes the attainment of all other right habits easier; I learned this long ago, but I never realized it as I do now, since I became in earnest about improving. I don't believe that people in general understand the philosophy of these things, or they would not submit to be ugly, nnd deformed, and miserable, when they might more easily be good, and happy, and beautiful.

Some people have this art; it must be very valuable. Now, when / retire upon my own capital, I find nothing but emptiness, and the exoitement of society does not really aatisfy me j it only Jeadent the terue of moral hunt/cr, aa I might call it, for the time. Do other girls feel this, I wonder? How glad I am that Aunt Eustace came to see us! I hope I shall profit by her counsel. There seems to be a healthy moral atmosphere about her that gives me strength and hope. I think my good angel must have sent her here in consideration of my needs, if ahe is going to confer beauty on mo, or put me in the way to gain it, she will indeed prove a messenger of good. I feel sore I should be more amiable if I were more beautiful. I know I cannot act harmoniously when I look no inharmonious. I believe I was intended to be beautiful, and I feel as if I conld never be mt/»elf until I am so. Aunt Eustace says that I do possess the gorms of beauty, and it may be developed. O what happiness, could I realise this I How earnestly I would set to work to prune and weed my nature, and plant tho seeds of good resolves and earnest deeds! A great deal of weeding and lopping off would have to be done; I am quite sure of that. I have lived in a sort of dreamy, blind manner, aa though I believed this was a world of chance, and if there was any good for me any good for me anywhere, it would come of itself, without my making any endeavors to obtain it. I wished for happiness, beauty, and intelligence, but I wanted to have them without the trouble of any effort of mine. i Now I see that I must be up and doing, if I would obtain any real good as my own. I see, too, that I shall bo happier for trying than if I remained sluggish. Life is so dull and wearisome ! I wonder if others find it so I I believe they do, by the weary, dissatisfied faces I meet; and yet I do not j believe ii need to be so. I am sure there I is material enough for happiness in the | world, if we only knew whero to find it \ aud how to use it. BT JUNIUS ». 011*0*.

Having finished, he turned to Peter and said: " Now I'll put you across." On reaching the middle of the stream, Peter threw his horse's bridle over a stake iu the boat, and told the ferryman to let go his pole. " What for?" asked the ferryman. "Well, you've just been using my name improperly; and said if ever I camo this way you would drown me. Now you'va got a chance." " la your name Peter Cartwright ?" a«k-ed the ferryman. " My name is Poter Cartwright." Instantly the ferryman seized the preacher ; but be did not know Peter's strength; for Peter instantly seized the ferryman, one hand on the nape of his trousers, and plunged him into the water, saying: " I btfptize thee (splash) in the name of the devil, whose child thou art."

The incident is located in North Carolina. It is the story of a man named "Oliver Stanley," who was taken oaptive by wild '-Injins." After some consideration, they put him into an empty oil barrel, and headed him in, leaving the bunghole open, that he might be longer djing. The prisoner relates a portion of his experience in this wise : " I determined to get out o' that or bust a trace ; and so I pounded away with my fist, till I beat it nearly into a jelly, at the end of the bar'l; but it were no go. Then I butted a spell with my noggin, but I had no purchase like old ranis have when they butt; fur, you know, they back ever so fitr when they make a tilt. So I caved in, made my fast will and testament and virtually gave up the ghoat. It wur a mighty serious time with me for sure. While 1 were lying thar, balancing accounts with t'other world, and afore I had all my igfirs made out to see how things 'ud stand, heard suthin' scrambulatin' iu the leaves, and snortiu' every whipstitch like he rmelt suthin' he didn't adzaotly like. I lay as still as a salamander, and thought, maybe there's a chanoe for Stanley yit. So the critter, whatever it mout be, kep' moseyin' round the bar'l. Last he came to the bunghole, put his nose in, smelt mighty perticler, and gin a monstrous loud snort I holt what little breath I hed to keep the oritter from smellin' the intarnals of the bar'l. I soon seen it was a bar of the woods—th« big king bar of the woods, who had lived there fronf time immoital. Thinks I, old fellow, look out; old Oliver ain't dead yit. Jist then he put his black paw in jist as fur as he Could, and scrabbled about to make • 'scovery. The first thought I had was to nab his paw, as a drownin' man will ketch at a straw; but I soon seen that it wouldn't do, for you see he couldn't travel then. So I jist waited a spell with great fiutterbation of mind. Tho next move was to put his tail in at the bunghole of the bar'l to test innards. I seen that were my time to make my Jack ; so I seised my holt, and shouted at the top of my voice : ' Charge, Chester, charge I " Splash ! splash! and the ferryman is in the depths again. " Will you pray now f" asked Peter. The grasping victim shouted: "I'll do anything you bid me." "Then follow me; 'Our Father, which art in Heaven,'" &c. Having acted as clerk, repeating after Peter, the ferryman cried : " Now let me go." "Not yet," said Peter, "you must sake three promise!:—First, that you will repeat that prayer morning and evening as long as you live. Secondly, that you will hear every pioneer preachor that comes within five miles of this ferry. Thirdly, that you will put every Methodist preacher over free of expense. Do you promise and vow ?" J.

" What beauty but an air divine Through «vhl«'h the mind's all gentle graces shine f These, like the sun irradiate all between; The body charms because the soul is seen." All women dcairo to be handsome. This longing for the perfectness of Eden beauty is the seal of its divine origin, which sin has indeed msrred, bnt never been able to effacc in the heart of woman. We would not have it otherwise. Women should wish fur comeliness; they all ought to be handsome; that is, under tho ordinary conditions of life in our country, where the sex are not subjected to hard and rough labor, girls should be lovely, and woman also, unless broken by peculiar storms of sorrow of lingering sickness. All women may bo handsome, generally speaking, if they will only take the care and pains necessary. It is not perfeotion of features that constitutes the charm, nor a radiant complexion—these are gifts, good gifts of Heaven, if used for good) but still, if the individuals thus distinguished are not sedulous to acquire gracefulness, practice neatness, and dress with propriety, they will not a; pear charming. " Love darting eyes and tresses like tho uiom " givo a charming image; but the tresses uncombed ccase to be poetical, and the eyes claim little attention when the gait is awkward and,the manners rude. There must be inward loveliness, made up amiability and intelligence, radiating over the outward form to insure lasting beauty.— Then those who neglect the laws of health, who are too indolent to take exeroise or engage heartily in some kind of usefulness, can never havo enough pure life (the blood is the life) to bocowe beautiful; and those who are too greedy to be discreet in food, and are always munching oakes and confectionery, must renounce the idea of being pretty. Rich pastry and strong coffee are not health-giving articles of diet, and one must bo well to be handsomo, but the poisonous compounds from tho eonfeotioncrs are far worse; it is the excess in eating those things that causes so many cloudy complexions, heavy eyes, and dull countenances in this our active world. And now for the way to cure all these ills. We will give the experience of a young lady who made herself handsome. She shall tell her own story at our Table in her own way. We feel sure one such example will be of more advantage than many essay# in teaching the true Art of Heauty:— nE VERIES OF X MAIDEN OF SEVENTEEN. Aunt Eustace says I can change these stooping shoulders for an erect form, make this sallow skin clear and bright, this flat chest full and round, and cause these dull eyes to sparkle with light and life. She says that my heavy, ungraceful motions can become buoyant and elastic, and my weak, thin voico strong and sweet. If she had told me I could scale the walls of Paradise some time within the next twenty-four hours, and take possession, it would not have surprised me more. All these changes are to be brought about gradually by the use of moral cotmelia, and the study of moral and physieal by- To Hotel Keepers.

Mortimer Hendricks. August ICth, 1800. MANUFACTURER 8. 8TCRIER, The Boon ton Iron Works, in New Jersey, consume annually more eoal than the county town of Morris. The rolling mill at Trenton consumes more than the oityy with its 15,000 inhabitants, and tb* Montour Works more than the whole city of Baltimore. All the world, in fact, is barn* ing coal, and is, therefore, interested in knowing whether there is likely to be enough. Some years ago, in the early history of Pennsylvania coal mining, a report gained earreney in Philadelphia that the workmen at Mauch Chunk had reached the bottom of the mine. They mistook the thieknesa of the vein for it« extent.— Panic seized on the Lehigh Company's stockholders and the shares fell twenty per cent., as well they might, if the coal had actually run out. But eoal veins, throughout the world, average only from ten to sixty feet in thickness, those in England varying from an inch to six feet. Yet England mine* 70,000,000 tuns annually, and the beat geologists estimate the quantity that may yet be got out at 190,' 000,000,000 tuns. The British eoal fields cover an area of 5,400 square miles; but . those of this country cover 106,600 square miles, in addition to which, new fields of great extent are being constantly discovered. England feels no alarm at any prospect of her coal fields not holding out; and this country ought to be equally confident of her inexhaustible supply. The quantity mined iu England has generally doubled every twenty-five years, but in this country, from 1839 to 1849, it doubled itself every five years, and it continues to grow at a far more rapid rate than it does in England. The whole annual consumption of the world is estimated at 100,- 090,000 tuns. Now, we see that this vast quantity is constantly increasing. If it remained stationary, at that figure, the Pennsylvania eoal fields alone would bonor the draft for 3,164 years. Double it, and the great Appalachian field would meat the demand for 6,987 year?. Extend it to 400,000,000 tuns annually, and the productive ooal fields of North America alone would be able to supply the world for 10,0000 years. It is a wanderful feature in the great coal deposits, that Providence has locoted the most abundant ones in the coldest countries, where fuel is most required. Even Spitibcrgen contains her share. This does not prove, however, that coal does not exist abundantly in Central America, or in Central and Northern Aaia. The presumption ia that future exploit* tions will unoover deposit* in those countries equal to the necessities of their inhabitants, But geology has determined the great fact that the ooal mines of the Uniied States will be certain to hold outD —JV. Y. Tribune. I need a good many aids to help me on tuy course. 0 dear! When I think of what I have to correct in myself, and what to gain, I feel almost discouraged. Still, Aunt Eustace says I need not to attempt any flying leaps, like a kangaroo j it itonly one itep at a time. I must take a kind of inventory of myself before I begin. It will run something in this wise: A bundle of bad habits and a large amount of ignorance of self and duties, bound together by indolence, in a weak, crooked, meagre frame, covered by a sallow skin, and embolliahod with • pair of large lack-lustre eyes. Well, now, to recapitulate after the instructions of Aunt Eustace, who is my moral doctor. Itrm Pint. To change this sallow skin to the pure freshness of health I must eat wholesome food at reasonable times and in reasonable quantities; I must study a little into tho mystery of nourishing the body iu order to do it properly. Second. That I may have pure blood, and, consequently, a clear complexion, I must breathe a sufficient quantity of pure air; this is indispensable, and I must make myself familiar with the way in which air purifies the blood. I cannot take in a proper quantity of air unless I suffer my lungs to expand fully; to effect this I must remove all outward compression that preventa perfect ease, avoid all crooked positions of body, and sluggish habits; and I must not breathe the air of heated rooms when I can avoid it, for there is not oxygen enough in it, nor in air that has been once breathed; such air has lost its life-giving properties, and has no more exhilarating power than wine that has stood in an open glass for a week.
