Dr. Franklin's Opinion of Xuck.
rilJlE astonishing success of JOS. GORMELY,
I 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 how unjust,
or how loiil 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,” ike, ” Pshaw says Dr. Franklin, of luck,
all the luck 1 know of is in proper management.”
Precisely so, Dr., and jusj the operating cause in
the extensive business done al the great LANCAS
TER HALL PF FASHIONS. The 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 has 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

and the National House. [May 9, ’4S.-tf-15.

The Art-Union is established for the purpose of;
extending a love for the fine arts throughout the j
United States, and to give encouragement to Ar- j
tists beyond that afforded by the patronage ofind'i- j
viduala. 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 :
1. Each subscriber of Five Dollars becomes a
member oi 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 the members for
that purpose.
Tims, 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 ilqj engraving, and where subscriptions are re
ceived for,t.he same. A. ARMSTRONG.

HY WU.t.IS GAYLORD CLARK
Solemn, yet beautiful to view,
Month of my heart! thou daw neat here,.
With sad and faded leaves to strew,
The .Summer's melancholy bier.
The moaning of thy winds I hear, ' i
As the red sunset dies afar,
And bars of purple clouds appear,
Obscuring every western star.
Thou solemn month! I hear thv voice :
It tells my soul of other day's,
When but to live was but to rejoice,
When earth was lovely to my gaze !
Oh, visions bright—-oh, blessed hours,
Where are their living raptures now v
I ask my spirit’s wearied powers—
I ask mv pale and fevered brow !
I look to Nature, and behold,
My life’s dim emblems rustling round,
In hues of crimson and of gold—
The year's dead honors on the ground
And, singing with the winds, I feel.
While their low pinions murmur bv,
How much their sweeping tones reveal.
Of life ami human destiny.
When spring’s delight some, moments shone,
They came in zephyrs from the west;
They bore the woodlark’s melting tone,
They stirred the blue lark’s glassy breast ;
Through summer, fainting in the heat,
They lingered in the forest shade ;
But changed and strengthened now, they beat’
In storms o’er mountain, glen and glade.
How like those transports of the breast,
When life is fresh and joy is new ;
Soil as the halcyon’s downy nest,
And transient all as they are true;
They stir the leaves in that bright wreath,
Which Hope about her forehead twines,
'fill Grief’s hot sighs around it breathe,
Then Pleasure’s lip its smile resigns !
Like cloiula in autumns gusty air,
The burial pageant of the spring.
The dreams that each successive year,
-jSeeimd bathed in hues of brighter pride.
At last like withered leaves appear,
And sleep in darkness side by side.
Talleyrand and Arnold.
'There was a day when arrived in
Havre, hot foot Irom Paris. It was in the darkest
hour of the French Revolution. Pursued by the
bloodhounds of the Reign of Terror, stripped of
every wreck of property or power, Talleyrand
secured a passage to America in a ship about to
sail. He was going a beggar and a wanderer to a
strange land, to eSrn his bread by daily labor.
-Is there an American staying at your house?"
he asked the landlord of the hotel. ‘'l am bound
j to and would like a letter to some
j person of influence in the New World.’
; The landlord hesitated a moment then replied.
! “There is a gentleman up stairs, either Irom
| America or Britain, but whether an American or
I Englishman, I cannot tell."
He pointed the way, and Talleyrand—who in
his life was Bishop. Prince, and Prime Minister as
cended the stairs. A miserable supplicant he stood
before the stranger's door, knocked and entered.
In the far corner of a dimly lighted room sat a
gentleman of some fifty years, his arms folded, and
his head bowed on his breast. From a window
directly opposite. a flood of light poured over his
forehead. His eyes looking from beneath the
downcast brows gazed on Talleyrand's face with
a peculiar and search expression. His face was.
striking in its outline ; the mouth and chin indica
tive of an iron will. His form, vigorous, even
with the snows pf fifty winters was clad in a dark,
but rich and distinguished costume.
Talleyrand advanced —stated that he was a fugi-
tive—and under the impression that the gentleman
before him was an American he poured forth his
history in eloquent French and broken English—
11 1 am a wanderer—an exile. Tam forced to
fly to the New World, without a friend or home.
You are an American! Give me then, I beseech
you a letter of yours, so that I may be able to earn
ray bread. lam willing to toil in any manner—
the scenes of Paris have filled me with such horror,
that a life of labor would be paradise to a career
of luxury in France. Yon will give me a letter to
one of your friends. A gentleman like yon have
doubtless many friends.”
The strange gentleman rose. With a look that
Talleyrand never forgot, he retreated towards the
door of the next chamber, his head still downcast,
his eyes lookingstill from beneath hisdarkened brow.
He spoke as he retreated backward: his voice was
full of meaning—'
“I am the only man born in the New World
who can raise his hand to God and- say—l have
not a friend —notone in all America!”
Talleyrand never .forgot the overwhelming sad
ness of that look which accompanied these words.
u Who arc you !’* he cried ae the strange man
retreated towards the next room. Your name?”
l - My name” —with a smile that had more ol
mockery than joy in its convulsive expression—
t:my name is Benedict Arnold.”
He was gone. Tallpyrand sank in a chair grasp
ing the words—
“ Arnold, the traitor!”
Thus you see he wandered over the earth another
Cain, with a wanderer's mark upon his brow.—
Even in that secluded room at that Inn of Havre,
his crimes found him out and forced him to tell his
name—sthat name the aynonyme of infamy.
The last twenty years of his life are covered
with a cloud, from whose darkness but a few gleams
of light flash out upon the page of history.
The manner of his death is not exactly known

But we cannot doubt that he died utterly friendless
—that his cold brow was not moistened by one
farewell tear—that remorse pursued him to the
grave, whispering John Andre! in his ears, and that
the memory 7 of his course of glory gnawed like a
canker at his heart, murmuring for ever.
“True to your country, what might you not have
been. O Arnold the Traitor!'’
Bean Mvift an«l flit* Tailor*
A tailor in Dublin, near the residence of the
Dean, took it into the “ ninth part 1 ' ofliis head that
he whs specially and divinely inspired to interpret
the prophecies, und especially the hook of ftcvelu
lions, Quilting the shop bnurd, he turned out a
preacher, or rather it prophet, until his customers
hud left hii i-hup, and his family were likely to
famish. Hi* monomania was well known to the
Dean, who benevolently watched an opportunity
to turn the current of his thoughts. One night, the
tailor, hk he fancied, got especial revelution to go
ami convert Dean Swift, and next morning took up
the line of march to the deanery . The Dean,
whose study was furnished with a glass door, saw
the tailor approach and instantly surmised the na
ture of his errand. Throwing himself into an atti
tude of solemnity and thoughtfulness, with the
Bible opened before him, and his eyes fixed on the
10th chapter of Revelations, he awaited his ap
proach. The door opened, and the tailor announ
ced in an unearthly voice—
“ Dean Swift, I am sent by the Almighty to
announce to you,—
my friend,' 1 6aid the Dean.‘ I am in
great trouble, and no doubt the Lord has sent you
tp help me out ol my difficulty.”
This unexpected welcbme inspired the tailor,
and strengthened his assurance in his own proph
etic character, and disposed him to listen to the
disclosure.
My friend.” said the Dean, “ I have just been
reading the 10th chapter of Revelations, and am
greatly distressed at a difficulty* I have met with,
and you are the very man sent to help me out.
Heie is an account of an angel that came down
from heaven, who was so large that he placed &e
foot on the earth and lifted up bis hands to heaven.
Now my knowledge of mathematics,” continued
the Dean, “ has enabled me to calculate exactly the
size and form of .this angel, but I am in great diffi
culty, for 1 wish to ascertain how muejy cloth it
will take to make him a pair of breeches ; and as
that is exactly in your line of business, I have no
doubt the Lord has sent you to show me.”
This exposition came like an electric shock to
the poor tailor! He rushed trom the house, ran to
his shop, and a sudden revulsion of thought arid
feeling came over him. Making breeches was ex
actly in his line of business. He returned to his
occupation, thoroughly cured o/ his prophetic reve
lation by the wit of the Dean.
The Wall of China.
A work on China recently published in England.
Tart ary,*'is reputed lobe more than 3,1)00 miles in
length—but the real length does not exceed 1,300
miles. Its course is not always even, sometimes
descending into deep valleys, at others rising to the
top of lofty mountains. Its height constantly va
ries, being much greater in certain situations, espe
cially in the valleys, whilst in some places it does
not rise higher than fifteen feet. In some parts this
wall is built entirely of atone,-in others ol stone and
brick mixed ;,and such is its breadth,.that carriages
can drive along the top with ease. The writer
adds:
I am informed that the interior of the wall was
filled up with earth, and that it was built of that
breadth not only for convenience m time of war,
but also to facilitate the transportation of materials
when it was building, as it would otherwise have
been impossible to carry it over steep and precipi
tous spots. It would, in fact, have been beneath
the advanced civilization ol the Chinese to build a
national barrier, passing over rocks, ravines, and
mountains, without providing a passage for horse and
foot soldiers. Upon examining this work 1 was
greatly astonished to find that, although it was built
more than eighteen hundred years ago, it is still so
perfect that it does not appear to have been finished
above a century. It is decayed only in a few pla
ces. and these delapidations the Tartars, who are
now in possession of do not trouble them
selves to repair. They only preserve and defend
the gates through which there is much traffic. Un
der the native Chinese Government, one million of
soldiers were employed to guard and garrison this
marvelous work.
Who Is Old t
A wise man will never rust out. As long as he
can move and breathe, he will be doing something
for himself, his neighbors, or for posterity. Almost
to the last year of his life, Washington was at
work. So were Franklin, and Young, and Howard,
and Newton. The vigor of their lives never de
cayed. No rust marred their spirits. It is a fool
ish idea to suppose we must lie down and die, be
cause we are old. Who is old ’? Not the man of
energy ; not the day laborer in science, art, or bene
volence ; but he only who suffers his energies to
waste away, and the spring of life to become mo
tionless ; on whose hands the hours drag heavily,
and to whom all things wear the garb of gloom.
Is he old'? should not be asked; but, is he active l
can he breathe freely and move with agility ?
There are scores of gray-headed men we should
prefer, in any important enterprise, to those youug
gentlemen who fear and tremble at approaching
shadows, and turn pale at a lion in their path.
Modest Literacy Request.
“One morning,” Scott said, “I opened a huge
lump of a despatch, without looking how it was
addressed, never doubting that it had travelled
under some omnipotent frank, like the First Lord
of Admiralty’s, when, lo and behold, the contents
proved to be a MS. play, by a young lady, of New
York, who kindly requested me to read and correct
it, equip it with prologue and epilogue, procure it
a favorable reception from the manager of Drury
Lane, and make Murry or Constable bleed hand
somely for the copyright; and inspecting the dover
I found that I had been charged five pounds odd for
the postage. This was bad enough,—but there
was no help, so I groaned and submitted. A fort
night or so after, another packet, of not less for
midable bulk, arrived, and I was* absent enough to
break its seal too, without examination. Conceive
my horror when out jumped the, identical tragedy
ol “The Cherokee Lovers” with a second epistle
from the' authoress, stating, that, as the winds had
been boisterous, she feared the vessel entrusted
with her former communication might have foun
dered, and therefore judged it prudent to forward
a duplicate.

Need we to prove a God is here;
The daisy, fresh from winter’s sleep,
Tells of his hand in lines as clear.

Andpoura the day-spring's living flood,
,Wondrous alike in all he tries,
Could form the daisy's purple ties.

Its crimson fringe so nicely spin j
And drnnch in dew the topoz gom
That, set in silver, gleams within 1
And fling it unstrained and free,
O'er hill and dale, and desert sod,
Tli.it man, wliere’ro he walks, may see
In every step, the stamp of God !
mm'loiin Truth*.
Your experience at least tells you thus much —
that the time is past, when you look • back to it,
appearaas if it were nothing; and you may believe
from this, that the time which is to come, will
come ns quickly, and appear as little, and as. un
worthy to be suffered to tempt you away from
eternity by his pleasures, which are but for a sea
son, as the period of your life that is already gone.
The very-moment of your final farewell, if yoif are
not previously cut short bydeath, which is a very
possible thing, that mQment will come, and old age
will come, and the last sickness will come, and; the
dying bed will come, and the last look you shall
ever cast upon your relations will come, and‘the
agony of the parting.breath will come. and. the
time that you will be stretched a lifeless corpse be
fore the eyes of your weeping relations will come,
and the coffin that is to enclose-you will come, and
that hour when the company assembles to carry
you to the church-yard will come, and that mo
ment when you are pnj into the grave will come, •
and the throwing in of the earth upon it, all—all will
come on every living creature who now hears me.
And in a few little years the minister who now
addresses you, and each one who now listens, will
be carried to their long home; now all this will
come Yes, and the,day of reckoning will come ;
and the appearance of the Son of God in heaven,
and his holy angels around him will come; and
. the opening of the books will come; and the ap
pearance of every one of you before the judgment
seat will come 5 and the solemn passing of the sen
tence which is to fix you for eternity will come
and if you refuse to be reconciled to God in the
name of Christ, now that he. is beseeching you to
repent, and if you refuse to turn Irom the evil of
i your ways, and to do and to be what your Saviour
requires you to be and to do, I must tell you what
the sentence is, ;; Depart from me, ye cursed, into
i everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his
angels."— Dr. Chalmers.
Flower*,
How the universal heart of man blesses flowers'*
They are wreathed round the cradle, the marriage
delights in their perfume, and writes his love in
nosegays: while the Indian child of the far West
claps his hands with glee as he gathers the abun
dant flowers—the illuminated scripture?* ol the
prairies. The Cupid of the ancient Hindoos tipped
his arrows with flowers, and orange buds are the
bridal crown with us, a nation of yesterday. Flow
ers garlauded the Grecian altar, and they hang in
votive wreaths before the Christian shrine. All
these are appropriate uses. Flowers should deck
the brow of the youthful bride, for they are in
themselves a lovely type of marriage. They should
twine round the tomb, for their perpetually renewed
beauty is a symbol of their resurrection. 'They
should rest on the altar, for their fragrance and their
beauty ascend in perpetual worship before the Most
High. ,
