Mr. Solomon Winthrop was a plain farmer— an austere, precise man, who did everything by established rules, could see no reason wi ople should grasp at things beyond what had oun reached by their great grandfathers. He had three children—two boys and a girl—Jer- emiah, seventeen years old; Samuel, fifteen; and Fanny, thirteen. It was acold winter's day. Samuel was in the kitchen reading a book, and so interested was he that he did not notice the entrance of his father. Jerry was im the opposite corner, engaged in ciphering out a sum which he had found in his arithmetic. **Sam,’’ said the father to his youngest boy, “bave you worked ont that sum yet?” ‘No. sir,” returned the boy, hésitatingly. ‘Didn't I tell you to stick at your arithme- tic till you had done it?’’ uttered Mr. Win- throp, in a severe tone. Samuel hung down his head, and looked troubled. “Why haven't you done it?’’ continued the father. «LT can’t do it, sir,” tremblingly returned Sam. “Can’tdo it? and why not? Look at Jerry there with the slate and pencil. He had ciphered further than you have long before he was as old as you are.” “Jerry was always fond of mathematical problems, siz; but I cannot fasten my mind on them, They have no interest for me.” ‘That's béeeause you don’t try to feel an in- terest in your studies. What book is that you are reading?” : «It is a work on philosopby. sir.”’ “A work on fiddiesticks! Go put it away this instant, and then get your slate, and don’t let me see you away from your arithmetic till youeaa work out those roots. Do you under- stand me?”’ Samuel made no answer, but silently he put away his philosophy, and then he got his slate and sat down in ehimney corner. His nether lip trembled, and his eye moistened, for he was unhappy. His father had been harsh towards him, and he felt that it was without a se. ‘* Sam,” said Jerry, as soon as their father had gone, “£ will do that sum for you.” “No, Jerry,” returned the brother, with a grateful look, ‘‘that will be rly father. I will try to do the sum, bat I fear shall not succeed.’ Samuel worked very hard, but ail to no pur- . His mind was not on the subject before Ein The roots and squares, the basis, hypoth- enuse and perpendiculars, though compara- tively simple in themselves were to him a mingled mass of incomprehensible things, and the more he worked the more he became per- plexed and pothered. - The truth was, his father did not understand im Samuel was @ bright boy, and uncommonly intelligent for one of his age. Mr. Winthrop was a thorough mathematician—he never yet ‘eame across a problem which he could not sotve, and he desired that his boys should be like him, for he considered that the acme of educational pe: ‘ion lay in the power of con- quering Euclid, and he often expressed his opinion that, were Eaclid living then, he could ‘give the old gentleman a hard tussel.”” He seemed not to comprehend that different minds were made with different capacities, and what one mind erepet with ease, another of equal power wou! te to comprehend. aoe be- cause Jeremiah progressed rapidly in his math- ematical studies, and could already survey 4 iece of Isitid of many angles, he imagined that poet Samuel made no progress in the same branch, he was idle and careless, and treated him accordingly. He never candidly donversed with his younger son, with a view to ascertain the true it of his mind, but he pertinacious- ly adhered to it. There was another that Mr Winthrop eould not see, and that was that Samuel was continually pondering upon such a matter as was interesting to him, and that he wasscarcely ever idle; nor did the father see, either, that * ¥f be wished his boy to become a mathemati- dnehbig’ uttered Senay So toe gesda wise the result " Tabor “Wor'sib.« cian, he was pursuing the course to prevent such a result. Ing of endeavoring to make the study interesting for the child, he was making it obnoxious. The dinner hour came, and Samuel had not worked out the sum His father was angry, and obliged the boy to go without his dinner, telling him that he was an idle, lazy child. Poor Samuel left the kitchen, and sat down andecried. At haa his mind seemed to pass from the wrong he had suffered st the hand of his ot took another turn, and the marks of grief left hisface. There was lar, fite in the room below his chamber, so that he was not very cold, and getting up, he went to a small closet, and from beneath a lot of old clothes, he took forth some long strips of wood aad a wears It was not for mere pastime that he whit. or he was fasbionin, some curious affair from those piogge of wood He had bits of wire, little se: of tin plate, c I small wheels himself, trying to fit them particular fashion of his Half the afternoon had thus_passed awa; when his sister entered hischamber.

Jerry and I can get along on the arm, and I think the best th: ing you can do is to learn the blacksmith’s trade. I have given up all a Peo of ever making 8 surveyor out of ‘ou, and if you had afarm you would not know ow to measure it or lay it out. Jerry will soon be able to take my place as surveyor, and T have stony made arrangements for having him sworn and obtaining hiscommission, But your trade isa one, however, and I have no doubt you will be able to make a good liv- ing at it. r. Young was a blacksmith i ing town, and carried on quite an extensive business. Moreover, be bad the reputation of being a fine man. Samuel was delighted with his father’s proposal, and when hé heard that Mr. Young carried on quite a large machine shop, he was in eostacies. His trunk was packed—a good supply of clothes having been provided; and kissing his mother and sister, and shaking hands with his father and brother, mounted the stage, and set eut for his new des- tination. He found Mr. Young all he could wish, and went into the business with an assiduity that surprised his master. One evening, after Samuel Winthrop had been with his new master six months, the lat- ter came into the shop after all the journeymen had quit work and gone home, and found the Youth busily engaged in fitting a piece of iron. There was quite a number of pieces on the bench by his side, and some were riveted cu- riously together, and fixed with springs and slides, while others Sppesten not yet ready for their destined use. r. Young ascertained what the young man was up to, and he not only encouraged him in his undertaking, but he stood for half an hour and watched him at his work. Next day Samuel was removed _ the blacksmith’s shop to the machine shop. Samuel often visited his parents. At the end of two years his father was not a little surprised when Mr. Young informed him that Samuel was the most useful hand in his employ. me flew fast. Samuel was twenty-one. Jerry had been free nearly three years, and was one of the most aceurate and trustworthy surveyors of the county. Mr. Le pagel looked upon his eldest son with pride, and often expressed a wish that his other son should have been like him. Samuel came home to visit his parents, and Mr. Young had come with him. “Mr. Young,” said Mr. Winthrop, after the tea things had been cleared away, ‘that is a fine factory that has just been ereoted in your town. “Yes,” returned Mr. Young, “there are three of them, and they are doing a very heavy business."’ “ T understand they have an extensive ma- chine sbop connected with the factories. Now, if my son Sam is a good workman, as you say he is, perhaps he might get a first rate situa- tion there.” Mr. Young looked at Samuel and amiled. « By the way,’’ continued the old farmer, ‘what is all this noise hear and see in the papers about those patent Winthrop looms? hey tell me they go ahead of anything that was ever got up before.”” ‘You may ask your son about that,” said Mr. Young. ‘‘that is some of Samuel's busi- ness. “Eh? What? Myson? Some of Sam——.”’ The old man stopped short and gazed at his son. Hewas bewildered. It could not be that his son—his idle son—was the inventor of the at power loom that had taken ali the manu- figtavers by surprise. “What do you mean?” he at iength in- quired. ‘* It is simply this, father, the loom is mine,”’ returned Samuel, with conscious pride. ‘I have invented it, and taken a patent right, and aye already been offered ten thousand dollars for it patent right in two adjoining States. Don’t you remember that clap-trap youcrushed with your foot, six years ago?” “Yes,” answe: the old man, whose eyes were bent to the floor, and over whose mind a new light seemed breaking. “Well,” continued Samuel, ‘that was al- moat a patent, though, of course, I have made much alteration improvement, and there is room for more.” “And that was what you were studying, when you used ‘to stand and see me weave, and fumbled sbout my loom so mach?” said Mts. Winthrop. “ And that is why zou could not understand my mathematical problems,”’ uttered Mr. Win- throp, as he started from his chair and tuok the youth by the hand. ‘Samuel, my son forgive me for the harshness which I have used towards I have been blinded, and now see how I misunderstood you. While Ib: thought you idle and careless, you were solving a philosophical problem I could never com- prehend. Forgive me, Samuel—I meant well beer ae but lacked judgment and discrimina- a Of course the old man had long before been forgiven for his harshness, and his mind was to & new Jesgon in buman nature. It was simply this :—Different minds have differ- ent capacities, and no mind can be driven to love for which it has no taste. First seek to understand abilities and dispositions of children, and then in your ment of their education for after life, sere ourselves accordingly. George Combe, tha greatest moral philosopher of his day, could hardly reckon in simple addition, and Colburn, the etician, coald not write out g common- piece address.

Notwithstanding the burning of # much powder, we took the fort and place with the loss of only four wounded. Their lose as near as can be ascertained is twelve killed, and as many more wounded. The names of the Americans wounded were: Wm. Hale, shot in the right eye—he returns on the schooner DewDrop; Walter Stanley had an arm broken; John Cooper was shot in the knee, and —— Bush, a Polander, was slight! wounded in the eye.
