During the memo rable session of 1838—9, ho distinguished himself in tho’ Senate of Pennsylvania, proving, in'debate,-an Overmatch for the Pcnroses, the Pearsons and the 'Williamses, who attempted to crush him on his first entrance into that body. Since that time he has gained more popularity as President Judge of this District, in the short space of time which he has been upon tho ‘Berith, than any other Judge within our recollection. That he will discharge the duties of Secretary of the Commonwealth with ability, and sustain tho measures of our patriotic Chief Magistrate with energy and zeal, none can doubt. .♦‘ln regard to Mr. Huttrb, ho is known ob one of She ablest political writers in the State, a democrat of Xhe right stamp—a man of indefatigable industry, and well calculated' to fill any station under the govern •menu” Of Judge Blithe it is unnecessary to say a word. •All know him as a gentleman of unimpeachable in tegrity, a dSund democrat, and. an amiable and highly •popular citizen. v (£j'GovomoT Purler; liasappointed JoinvWr F on.

He who Indulges continually { in a spirit of detraction, and views the conduct of oth- I ers with a jaundiced vision, gives the world good rea-1 son to suspect himself. “To the pure all is pure,” j and the person of tho most corrupt mind is the tint to discover,und the loudest to proclaim thto. peccadilloes I of others.

What would he bis merriment on seeing a modern coxcomb tricked out in all the foppery that dry-goods and a skilful tailor could furnish him? Ido not now by any means wish to. accuse the young.men of our day of ostentation, or to disapprove of any attire which they may deem be* coming. ‘Every one whoso means will enable him should assume the garb of a gentleman, and it is only when that desire of conforming to the customs of the Wtirtd leads to excess, and tho love of dress becomes a passion; that the brainless fop becomes the object of; contempt and ridicule as much to sensible men on earth,'as he would be of astonishment to our stranger from another planet, or to the man in the moon!

That part of the human .face divine which a little while since was protected by the hairy covering which nature has furnished, is now smoothly shaved, and the loca tion of those superb appendages is transferred from the cheek to the chin. A superficial observer would see nothing more in this chortge than the mere'freak of fashion, whereas a discovering mind, will find in it abundance of mystery. It would be improper for me to divulge in this public manner all those secrets of the gay world which are only known to the exclusives, to those whoso claims'to rank and fashion entitle them hi a full disclosure; Indeed it is on act of no small favor to the public, that I have thus far condescended as to make thin partial communication; But inasmuch as I have so far laid aside my dignity of character dS to discourse with the vulgdr public, I will even sloop still lower,, by imparting a moat valuable plebcbf im formation; and one which the unassisted ingenuity of the wisesfcould never dlscoVdr, td’wit, the “rationaie •of the fashionable whiskers: They are, intended as a .hedge by which gentlemen of. our stamp may bo dis tinguished' from the common herd, and are .at the dame time erablcmatical of our intellectual endowments* A profile view of one of us will immediately suggest to a person of ordinary capacity a remarkable re/tyfi blance to a domealic quadrupcd, and hocannotbut ad-: mire our taste m~BelectlmT a prototype anil the suc cess of our imitation.
