.the rabidfederal leaders, he' is decidedly popular
among the mass of those wio voted against him
at the former election. And'how could it be oth

into a belief that he did not;. possess the abilities
requisite in a Chief Magistrate, who was required

Ward's-seems to - hare TM -gotten that justice is
everiliantied, and Will not be turned from her path'
by interest or prejudice. It is true that "Smith

for , tlie interest of tharstreet alone; bur:lt is the
duty of Councils to take an enlarged and cot:time
hensive vi of the whole city and its interests in
the adjustment of any and every question—hence
the ordinance to raise Smithfield street; tbalby ex:
tending the plain, the ascent to the Courthouse
.
may be made more easy. It may be that a
large majority of the members of the Common
Council see a great propriety in loWering Grant
Where it intersects Fifth street, ten feet below the
present grade, and at the same time they can see
no propriety in elevating, Smithfield street," but
that does not argue the justice of the act. It
would lie well if the advocates of the ten feet
'cut would consider du. cost which must necessari
ly attend their project. Among other matters
they should not overlook the damage to the sta
bility pf the court house, the ruin of the Catholic
church, the.material diminution of value of the
old basin lot, the injury to the Protestant Methodist
church, Mr. Avery's buildings, Law corner, &c.,
&c., &c. Let not self interest stand so prominently
in the way, and Smithfield, Grant and Fifth streets

—partially at least. The grass is growing in one
of onr streets. Yes!eniay, "we thought we saw

Increase in the Shipping of Philadelphia.—To
show the great increase in the shipping of Phila
ilelphia, particularly within the last year, we would
merely state, that from the port of Londonderry,
(Ireland,) alone, this season, no less than thirteen
vessels have arrived at this city; and nine more
vessels have sailed or are about sailing' from the
`same port--whicb, in a few days, will swell the
uuMber.of arrivals at this port from Londonderry,
thus far this season, to Witty /um. Last season,
the number of arrivals from Londonderry was
thirteen, which was considered at that time as un.
precedently large ; the average of former years
being from five to six.—Phila.,Bullelin.

The Post of last Tuesil4; contained a commu

seems to me was rather, au:lmpeifeet stateinetit of
the affair. . " •
Affee:the fire that destrOYed 11Ir. Darnie's ware
rooarf'and shop r the', masons agreed individually to
tuke a certain Amount of Stock in the erection:of
a building, n part of whith was .fc , be appropria: -
ted to the use of the - Lodge. Tu'i stock was af
terwards bought up by Mr. Darsie from the sub
scribers, at first cost, $25 per share, and of course
the whole building then belonged to him, thestock
holders having received the amount they invested.
One third of the lot on which - tte Lodge was
built, had been paid for by the corporation; in oth
er words, the Lodge. But since the fire of
15 15, the lot cannot be found, as them never had
.been a deed made by Mr Darsie to the Lodge.
This is a plain story, and if Mr. Darsie can
reconcile his conduct with the rules of honesty, I
have no more to say. JAHUE."

near Jalapa, hearing dispatches, from Gen. Scott
to the Government, was Col. Sotr, of Lock Haven,
Clinton county, Pa., though the name was given
as -Sowers.' The Pennsylvanian says:
"Desiring to participate hi the perils of war, he
resigned, a few weeks since, the place of clerk to,
the Comissioners of Clinton county. hich he had
long held, and ob.() the office of Deputy Son eyor
am] started to the theatre of strife, with the design
of enlisting as a volunteer aid, At Washington he
was entrusted by the St ~:c Department with impor
tant dispatches for Gen. Scott, with which he
proceeded to New Orleans, and there et haiked
about a month since for Vera Cruz. He was a
worthy and useful citizen, and was one of the first
aids appointed by Governor Shrink."

strong stitnulous to his being so. As long as he

4. Cultivate end exhibit with the ' i , reatest care
;
constancy. cheerfulness and good h umor. They
I give beauty to the finest face ; impart charms
Iwhere charais are not. On the contrary, a gloomy.
dissatisfied.-manner, is an antidot to affection;
land though a man may not seem tX notice it, it is
chilling, and repulsive to his feelings, and he will
be tery apt to seek elsewhere fur those smiles
and that cheerfulness which lie Ends not in his
own house.
5. In the article of dress study your husband's
taste. Ihe opinion of others. on tins subject, is of
but very little consequence, if he approve.
• G. Particularly shun what the world•callsinr;d•
rule curtain lectures." When you shut your
door at nighriendeavor to shut nut at the same
moment all discord and contention, and look on
your chamber as a retreat from the vexations of
the world, a -shelter tueted to peace and affection.
How indecorous, ofiensise and sinful it is for a
woman exercise authority over her husband, and
to say. u I WILL have it SO. It sus Lt. he as I like!
but l trust the number of those who adopt this un
becoming and disgraceful manner, is so small as
to render it unnecessary fur me to enlarge on the
subject. '
7. Be careful never to join in'a jest and laugh
against your husband. Conceal Ins faults. and
speak only of his merits. Shun every approach
It/ ealravagance. The want of economy has in
yoked mdiions in misery. Be neat, tidy, onlerly,
methodical. Rite early ; breakfast early—have a
place for every thing, and every thing in its place.
