This paper is esp ecia lly entitled to the patltma;e of
M ec h a nics alld Manufacturers, b eing the only paper in
Amf.'rica devoted to the intel·est. of those c1as't·s; but i:;
particular ly useful to }' ar me rs , as it will not only a p pr i s e
them of i mp ru vem ents in ag r icultu ra l implements, but
iustruct them in various mechanical trades, and guard
t.hem a ga ins t impositions. As a family new sp ape r, it
will conv e y more useful intelJi�encc to children and
young people, than five times its cost in s chool instruc­
tion. Another i mp or tant argument in fav or of t his pa­
per, is, that it will be wor th two d olla r s at the (' nd of the
yea r, when the volume is com p le te, and will probably
command that price in cash, if we may j udge from the
circumstance that old volumes of the "N ew York Me­
cha n ic, " by the same edi tor, will now command double
the original COit.

Of all the thing s that live
In woo d land, marsh, or bo g ,
That c re e p the g round 01' fly the air,
The funniest is the frog-
The frog-the scientifickest
Of Nature's handy work-
The frog, that neither walks nor run3,
But goes it with a jerk.
With pants and coat of bottle green,
And yello w lancy vest,
He plun�es into mud and mirc­
All in bis S u nd ay best ;
When he sits down he's s tanding up,
As Pad d y O'Kinn once said;
And, lor convenience sake, he wear�,
His eye on top his head.
You see him sittin;, on a log,
Above the" n asty deep,"
You feel incline d to say, old chap'
Just" look before yOll leap !"
You raise your cane to hit him,
His ugly-looking mug;
But, ere y ou get it half way up,
Adown he goes KER·CHUG.

And ne'er goes on a spree,
Nor gets" how-come-you-so," for a
Cold w ater chap is he;
For EARTHLY cares to get d ru n k
He's not the silly fool;

And d rown s 'em ill the pool.
