Jttisrdlanccius. The Gentleman. True gentlemen tire to be found in every grade of society, The ploughman, with his broad sun* burnt hand, his homely dress, and his open honest countenance, is oftener found to be possessed of the real attributes of a gentleman, than the enervated man-milliner, who is much more careful of his gloves than his honor; whose shirt bosom must be a's pure as a virgin's fame; and who, if one curl of his glossy wool were displaced, would be thrown immediately into strong convulsions. The blood which flows in a rich and generous stream through the heart of a Russian serf, is as pure in the eyes of God as the life current which eddies round the princely fountain of the highest of England's no blemen. It is a false, illiberal idea, that because a man cannot claim alliance with the proud and wealthy, his name should be stricken from the list of gentlemen. We are all created alike—our mothers suffer the same pangs; and shall the one who is ushered into life upon a silken couch spurn him whose limbs were first laid on a.trussof straw? Which class, from time immemorial, has shed honor and glory on the earth—the proud aristocrat or the poor peasant? Whose names are enrolled in the dazzling pages of history—the gentleman of fashion or the gentleman of nature? What voices are most heard, and to most effect, through out the world? Why, those of men born in pov erty,' but clothed by truth with the jewelled robe of honor. Does the . mere fact of a man’s being -• able to make a bow with scrupulous exactness constitute him a gentleman? Shall the children of one mother be divided, because one portion are . gifted with gracefulness of action and coxcombry of demeanor, while the others will not stoop to cringe at flattery's fawn, or waste the hours given them by Heaven to improve, in the useless study of the puerile forms of fashion? . Oh, how glad it makes one's heart to see the ‘‘painted lizards" trodden under foot by the gentleman of nature? to see them skrinl% away at the approach of honest men, fearing that they may be called-upon to acknowledge their own inferiority! Who is the gentleman?’he who can-boast of nothing but a name, upon which dishonor has never thrown his leprous poison. He who can lie . down upoi\ his pillow at night knowing that he has done Ins neighbor no injury; whose heart is never locked to pity, and whose arm Is always nerved to redress the injuries of the oppressed. Who smiles not at misfortune, and who mocks not the affliction of his fellows. He who looks upon all as equals, ulid who fears not to stand ill the presence of a king. The man who is guided by morel honor, urn) not obliged to Imvo laws hltulo ini- Ills obsei vaiien; He who lots true demothiey In in? iloslits mid gives lo every imin ihe enjoyment of hU owii opinion?! provided those opinion* ilu'imt impinge ihe dmei* ol justice in it*? mo*t -liyid seme, mpdi a man mui only mm*li a one tliiHiltl ilaiii b»y eUini !o ihe proud nppelhiijnii of \\ • : gt3mlem*iii. r Thank thul! we are in ?t ■mnniry wlhm« ihe Md m.luninr und renown i» "pen to nil.

('rcvctit City, iTmikiliiN itcNtiupr iMuce. “Such was hi* worth, hi* loss wits micli, We cannot luvo too well,or grieve tun niucli.” In one eornei of the Iniryiug-gcoiiml. best known as Christ's (’lmreli-yaid, lepose the mil-aim ol the philosopher Franklin. On mitering the yard from Arch street, attention will unavoidably be directed to his humble tomb by a weU trodden path which leads trom the gate to the marble slab which bears the simple inscription, which will at once strike the beholder with wonder, vi/.; ‘‘Benjamin and Deborah Franklin." With wonder. 1 say, because we are accustomed to see the stones covering the tenements of great men inscribed with euloginms; but-the one we are now beholding has nothing but the words above quoted, and the year in Which it was placed there. And this is the grave of a man who might once have been seen, a runaway boy, in the streets of Philadelphia, seeking employment as a printer; and again, as editor and proprietor of the United States Gazette, long so ably conducted by Mr. Chandler. Once trying experiments w'ith a simple paper kite; again, astonishing the world with the discoveries made through iis instrumentality. Once in Eng land as a deceived journeyman printer; again as minister from an Independent Republic. Once in his workshop, as a laboring mechanic; again in the halls of Legislation, advocating the cause of freedom, and urging an oppressed people to rise and drive the British Lion from our forests.’ Yes, he was om- of those who signed away their lives, fortunes and honors, if necessary, for the welfare of their fellow-citizens. But all this could not save him from the hand of death. Though the Philos opher and Statesman must lie as low.as the less favored, yet the circumstances connected with the lives ol those whose motto was “non siii sed puti'ir.' possess charms* which all can appreciate, and all lov eto cherish. We read his, name oh the marble slab—ponder over his virtues, and mourn his loss, as‘of a dear friend. We stand around his grave, and think how many have gazed witli reverence upon that stone, and our eyes become fixed upon it as though it possessed an endearing charm. We look back on his life and deeds, and when we re member that a nation wept when Franklin died, we cannot refrain irom dropping a tear over his last abode. No towering monument rears its head above the clouds, where the first beams of the rising sun will gild his name; but that name is inscribed in char acters not easily to be erased, on evejy liberty-lov ing heart; and so long ns Philosophy continues to be a science, benevolence a virtue amt liberty the watch-word of the American people, will his mem ory be cherished, and his name be honored.— Jiapt. The Ancestry of Washington. The Mlnuuj Jfmrnig Journal referring to the fact that Mr. Muereudy had visted the village of Gasdon, in England, to obtain information concerning Sir Lawrence Washington, an ancestor of Washington, says: Mr. Moscord, of Albany, in his recent visit to England, was also at' the residence of the ances tors of Washington, and brought with him a fine painting of the old Washington Mansion, with a plaster cast of the monuments of deceased members of the family now to be seen in the church. He also took the following extract from linker'* Hit torn °f Northampton : In'li* lien. (I the Manor of Sulgmve, par cel of the dissolved priory* of St, Andrew, with all lands in Sulgravo ami \Voollbrd, and certain land in tftntflhbury and Colton near Northampton, late belonging to the said priory, and nil land* in Sul grave late belonging totbadiftsolved priories of Can ons Ashby ami Cntesby, were granted to Lnwruncu Washington, of Northampton, gent,, who died seized in ’JO Eliz. (1581 W,) leaving Robert Washington, his son anil heir, aged 40 yoars; who, jointly with his eldest son. Lawrence Washington, sold the manor of Sulgrave in H Jac. (KUO) to his nephew Lawrence Makepeace, of the Inner Temple, London, gent. Lawrence Washington, after the sale of this estate, retired to Bungton, where he died. His sec ond son, John Washington, emigrated to America about the middle ot the 27thcentury, and, as exhib ited in the subjoined pedigree, was great-grand father of the American patriot George Washington. Anecdote of Patrick Henry. When the celebrated Patrick Henry, of Virginia, was near the close of his life, he laid his hand on his Bible, and addressed a.friend who was with him, “ Here is*a book worth more than all others print ed ; yet it is my misfortune never to have read it with proper attention until lately." About the same time he wrote to his daughter—“ I have heard it said that deists claim me. The thought pained me more than the appellation,of Tory; fw I consider religion of infinitely higher importance than poli tics, and I find much cause to reproach myself that l have lived and given no decided public proof of my being a Christian.” Enemies. —Have you enemies ? Go straight on, and mind them not. If they block up your path, walk around them, regardless of their spite. A man who has no enemies is seldom good for any thing—he is made of thdt kind of material which is so easily worked that every one has a hand in it. A sterling character—one who thinks lor himself, and speaks what he thinks, is always sure to have enemies. They are as necessary to him as fresh air; they keep him alive and active. A celebrated character, who was surrounded by enemies, used to remark : They are sparks which if you do not blow, will go out of themselves.’’ Let this be your feelings, while endeavoring to live down the scandal of those who are bitter against you. If. you stop to dispute, you do but as they desire, and open the way for more abuse. Let the poor fellows talk there wilEbe but a reaction, if you perform but your duty, and hundreds who jvere once alienated from you, will flock to you and acknowledge their error.

The Art-Union is established for the purpose of extending a love for the fine arts throughout the United States, and to give encouragement to Ar tists beyond that afforded by the patronage of indi viduals. Its promoters believe that these arts can never attain their due rank in this country (already so far advanced in many of the other elements of civilization) until adequate encouragement be given to the highest efforts of the Painter and Sculptor. For the accomplishment of this object, the Soci | ety has adopted the following PLAN : ]. Each subscriber of Five Dollars becomes a member of the Art-Union for one year. The money thus obtained is applied, first, to the procuring of a large and costly Engraving, from an original American Picture, of which every member receives a copy ; and next, to the purchase of Pic tures, Drawings, or other works of Art, with the funds distributed by lot among tiie members for that purpose. Thus, for the sum of Five Dollars, every member is sure of receiving a fine Engraving (worth alone the amount of his subscription) and the chance of obtaining a fine original Painting, to be SELECTED BY HIMSELF from any public exhibition in the United States. For further particulars call at the Painting Room of the undersigned, where can be seen a specimen of the engraving, and where subscriptions are re ceived for the same. A. ARMSTRONG. August 1. 28-tf.

GORMELY, in the CLOTHING BUSINESS, excites the surprise of some and the envy and jealousy of others His unparalleled success some attribute to one cause, and some to another. And some, more envious than the rest, attribute it to any cause that best suits their purposes, no matter ho\r unjust, or how foul the* misrepresentations. Again, there is another class more easily satisfied, and content themselves by saying—“ Well, it is all luck—better to be born lucky than rich. Born under a lucky planet,*’ &e, “ Pshaw says Dr. Franklin, of luck, all the luck I know of is in proper management.” Precisely so, Dr., and just the operating cause in the extensive business done at the great LANCAS TER HALL OF FASHIONS. Tin: only secret in this large business, and the only reason that it of large, is because he is careful in the selection is good materials, and lias all his goods well made — and then the fit of his garments cannot be surpassed; and are sold at prices that defy competition. This is the cause of his astonishing success at the great LANCASTER HALL OF FASHIONS, N. Queen St . Lancaster; next to J. Gish & Co.’s Book Store and tho National House. [May 9, *48.-tf-lf>.
