THE Constitution of the United State 3 is fotin ded on principles oF equality—Every citizen is born with a right to participate in sit its advanta ges. In this refpedt we all ftait from the fame point in the journey of life—but alas! how soon do the advantages of education, which fume enjoy over others, enable them to dillauce their contem poraries ! It is this which creates those difparitics, that en genderthe bitterneflei of social efciftence—Envy on 'he one hand, and ambition on the other. It is ac knowledged that nature sports an endleis, variety in forming the human mind. Genius however, is more equally d'fpenfed than may at firtl view be imagined. in the prifent difeuflion, this consideration has little weight. The objeet is to taften this idea un the mind, viz. That the people being born rights, ju.tice requires that the government should as far as possible place them in a capacity to enjoy those rights. We complain of monopolies—of the power of riches—of the burthens of Society. The causes of these complaints wiH continue and accu mulate, so long as the present monopoly of learn ing continues. A monopoly of all others the most injurious, be cause it will in time acquire an inveteracy ; which it will be unpopular to attempt- to remove. This monopoly is disregarded by those who fuflfer from its effects ; and generally in the fame proportion. Its operation tho' fatal, is gradual, and therefore the less obvious. Those who Inoiv nothing, feel few irjmies; it is the\:apacity for enjayment which originates in an extension of the humait faculties that enables mankind to dillinguifh negative misery, and positive good. I know that this observation has been obtruded on the world in defence of keep ing the majority in ignorance. Ueiefted be the policy. It is the meafnre of tyrants to (laves or rather it is the connedtirg link that binds the lat ter to the former. The Conftituiion of the United States, has le velled all the pretensions of fupeiiority, which are not founded on fupetior merit. It holds out the moll powerful motives to excel in all those estimable endowments, which give worth to the human cha rter, by placing within probable attainment, by the cluldien of thepoorcft citizen in the Republic, the highest honors of the union—between them, and these objects, what is there that intervenes, but our own negligcnce i The Legislature of this Commonwealth labored twofeflions on the fubjeatfeducation, and brought nothing to pass. Some fay that worse than bare creation is before an holt of prejudices impede iheir way. In addition to these difficul ties, it has been afTerted in a public paper, that the men of property opposed the business. Ido not believe this foul aspersion on their understandings, has a balis to support it. If it has, it will fh'ew ' that as the completion of this business is peculiarly the interest of the general mass of the citizens, so on them alone depends the bringing forward men who will honeltly adopt and pursue those' measures, which will eventually result in the accomplrftiment of this important objed—ln my next, I propose to point.out some of the methods neeeflary to be re sorted to, on the part of those who realize how im. portanc a general diffufion of kaowledge among the people is, to the piefervation of the Republican chara&er. ■■■■■Ui.ii E " l rom the Fakmer's IVeesit Museum. " V'i/t t^su well to be angry for the gourd? OR to fret, at any of t * petty accidents of life ? 1 hou discontented mortal, undoubted defend ant from Jonah, and his peevish tribe, why dost thou fuller a cloud to gather on thy brow, because there re a hjtle one, no bigger than a man's hand, riling in the sky ? Be serene thyfelf, and it will import little, whether it raint or'blows. Of all vile habits, that of fretfulnefs is the lead tolerable. Many offenfive things, which vulgar people do, are sometimes laid aside, and their neigh hours are occafiorially freed from annoy. But fret fulnefs is a kind of perpetual motion, excited no lef. by a creaking rioor, than a fit of the gout. It is a voracious monlter and f« ds upon -|inme as wH as vast vexation. Let us drive, therefore, to pluck off this blitter from the heart, and, even in the hottest, and most opprefTive days of life, care not wUeth-uhe duller of a « goard" be expended over us, or token away. I | iave „l wa -«i ever bnce the fchoolmuiref. bid me rrad, with a loud voice, Jonah's journey to Nineveh, tl at tir prophet fkeuld ch jfe, like a i WZ ed brute of t5-v " Secatife a goard, a flfoft lived cbnf of tf, e t 'light, had wi hered I: amjeais to me, even if jh» fiin beat fiercely upon hishheatd t and the er.tl wind blew (harpljr upon his breali, that the prophet might have found so much alleviation of his mis. tort 11 c?et», in beholding " sixteen ihoufand" peopie, aid » also much cattle" spared from deft rust ion,' that a deid «« goard" would not give him the fpleeo. I cannot help feeling a degree of indifference, and, perhaps, averfioi. towards this ftetting to the Ninevites. 1 have a profound "nlptd r,.r all, at;d a warm afFe&ion for molt of the othe pro phets. Many were courtly, as well us ingenious I admire the sublimity of liaiah, tbefe-i ---fibility of Jeremiah» and the iretieroug zeal of E zekiel. Eveu the lowly Amut, t1 I" ' of ~ 'l-rfcoah, on-, i of Ills edußast'Ai" has indueed a degree of rudenci* tx> his wririnig • ilill I believe t« be as honest a prophet, . s ever u - tered a pteditlii.n. But as for Jonah, fctting alidc his disobedience, feltifhnefs and vanity, he was so sulky a;id lo morose a mortal that I never could like his character or his principles. I am not f« un charitable, as to with that he haj actually beep Ji gefted by the whale, which swallowed him, but he ought to have kept no better company ; for not • the " irreat Leviathsn of the deep ever floundered more impatiently in his element, than dilcomented Jonah, in the voyage of life. On a review of what 1 have, thus far Written, I believe (bat there is qo occafiou to look so far ba> k as th* history of an eminent prophet for an iiflance of anger employed upon trifles. If J fliould lift the window sash of my ftiidy, 1 Ifoouid dilcern, whole companies fretting and fuming foe the "gnard." Walking in a ltudious mood, by the fide of a s neighbour's garden fence, I observed him flam ping upon the ground with filch disorder, that 1 con e eluded he was in convullions, or pradtifing a dance i of $t.

Humaniig urged me towards him, ir and I meditated medical rather than moral aid. - But to my eager qticftion of " what aileth thee he replied to my astonishment, that the bugs had - blighted all his cucumbers, and was not that enough a to raake a wife man mad ? 1 endeavored to compose his perturbated spirits, and quoted to him Seneca I Upon tranquillity of mind, and part of one of Ba« s lil's homilies, but all in vain. He appeared to be e possessed ; and it requited an abler exorcist than my. felf to drive his devil away. I retired ; and, think s ing of Jonah aid his " goard" could not help al a legotizing a little in Bimyan's manner. My neigh. . ;l bour Irritable's forefathers, quoth I, probably cul- J tivated cucumbers without the walls of Nineveh ; y they fretted when tfee fruit was cut off, and my e worthy friend here* I find, has not yet. been cured e of the Jumtly taint 1 THE LAY PREACHER. NEW-YORK. j Out country presents us, in all quarters, with most abundaßt crops, The hay is iu vast quantities, and of the bed quality. The rains of May and June p caused a full growtji, and the fucceediiig- dry i-fi j then enabled the farmer to gather and it in.the bell manner. Ihe oats and flax are equally abund s anl, 1 Never were greater crops of wheat and rye. In a few particular iituations the wheat is blalfed, but _ as a general rcmaik, the wheat is excellent, and in f greater quantities than ever has been before known. r Unulusl quantities of old wheat also remain en hand. The spirit of speculation and monopoly had hoarded immense quantities for a high market. E ven the farmers, in some places, had flored their ■ wheat and flour, in oar market-towns, waiting for an increase of price. The sudden fall of price has disappointed their hopes, and made them repent their foil*. _ The fatal consequences of the fall of provisions In Eutope, upon a great number of American mer. j chants are sincerely to be regretted. Yet these con r f quences were expected, and Tiavc been repeatedly foretold ; and nothing would repress the daring j spirit of speculation. The great art of profiling by speculation, is to be the firft to observe changes in . 'he ffiaikets abroad, and engage e
