A little before the Middle of the last centuary,
there at Itondovi, a city in Italy, a young
child maled.Rosi Gerona:. LeR atil, orphan at, In
early . age,' she had no other apparent means of
estrum; Is t livelihood than the use of, her needle, in
which she sito*ed great skill combined with the
linoin remarkable industry. Being of a reflecting
r: - 'mitul, she Warm delight in thoseitleasures and
- frivolous amusements which too often engage the
* female heart. Confiding in the resources of an 11C
tivei and benevolent nature, she wished for no corn
paMons save those of misfortune, and for no re.
compenie save the blessing of Heaven.
While Bon-was thus living and laboring by
hentellothe happened to meet with a young girl
-who had lost both her parents, and who bad no
Mitt of supporting herself in an honest manner.
No sooner did the good Rosa become acquainted
with the sad story of the distressed tgirl, than she
generously stretched forth her hand to help her
'Come and live with me,' said she; 'You shell share
any bed, and drink out of my cup, and, above all,
liwthonestly by the work of your fiends.' When
she bad.thut made a commencement, others joined
her . and she soon congregated around her a socie
ty of young girls all equally poor, and by the most
assiduous application procured the' necessaries of
lifeln them all.
• But the . little house in which the young girls
dwelt soon attracted the attention of all the dissc -
'late young men of the place, who were forever
seeking after adventures of some kind or other.—
They began by following them whenever they
left the house: bat the young women silently re
pulsed all their impertinences, and even forced
tbens,ftereome time, to blush at their conduct=
The house incurred , also the displeasure of those
old people who, considering , all innovations (whe
ther of a benisficial character'or not) as dangerous,
wish forever to abide by the old forms and regula•
tions which governed the actions of their ancestors.
Tdtp eould.not direst themselves of a mean sus
,gdeion drat all wes not right, and many of the cit-
Wins observed Rosa with much curiosity, and be
gan to whisper all manner of things to her pre
dice. Thus the retreat of industry and virtue be
came the object of the most malignant calumnies,
and the good Rosa
of
herself the subject of im
pertinent inquiries, of rumors the most vexatious,
of auspicious the most unjust. But the wise and
courageous gid, fully assured of the purity of her
tactions and intentions, opposed perseverance to in.
turnationii, and silence to calumny. The truth
could notlong remain doubtful—Rosa soon gained
the applause of the virtuous, and the commune
granted her siarger house, in the plain of Cara-
eons, *kits number of her companions increased
daily . This augmented the jealousy of her ene.
mies,who had been hitherto unsuccessful in their
endeavors to injure her character; bet these new
obstacles served only to redoable the ardor of Rosa,
and to raise her courage. There were now about
irlreventy young women in the house, all of whom
worked in common with herself to — procuns an
honest livelihood. As the house they inhabited
was scarcely large enough to accommodate the
number of work-women, she 'solicited the com
mune to grant her another still larger habitation.
- The municipal body, to show their sense of her
exertions in the cause of virtue, voluntarily made
-her a gift of a very large and commodious dwell
ing in the valley of Brao; here she established a
work-shop for the-manufacture of woolen articles.
The excellent Rosa, who was now about 39
' years of age, had at this period, by her indomita
ble perseverance, triumphed over all obstacles;
and by her exertions in extending the essociatior,
and her wisdom in superintending the affairs of
the community, ere &telt an asylum for poor and
indigent females. The more she consideted the
utility of her institution, the greater became her
desire to extend the benefits which such an asylum
presented. How many poor and destitute beings,'
thought she, 'mast there be - in a large and popu
lous city who are deprived of all means of pro
curing an honest livelihood!' Filled with this idea,
and relying entirely on the sanctity of the mission
she proceeded to Turin in the year 1755. Arrived
in the city of Sardinia, she asked the use of a
budding suitable for the carrying out of her in
tentions, and obtained from the priests of the Ora
tory; of St. Phillip several capacious rooms. Some
chairs, tables, and different articles of furniture,
were also provided for her use by the good priests.
She received the little they gave her with the great
est delight; and thus established, with some of
her companions, in the capital city of the king
demob° ectolutely set about prosecuting the ob
ject of her mission.
The novelty of the idea soon engaged the atten
, tion of the citizens; they saw, and what is more
astonishing still, they applauded her design; and
her shop, or rather factory, soon became the tale of
the whole city. At this period, Charles Emanuel
the Third, having established on a firm footing the
independence of his people, gave himself up en
tirely to the parental administration of the coun
try. As a protector of labor, he accorded to the
pious Rosa some houses which had formerly be
longed to a religious establishment. Rosa in
stalled herself here, increased the number of her
companions,. and greatly extended the branches of
labor to which they applied themselves. Two
years after this, by order of the same prince, the
manufactures carried on by Rosa were properly
organized. and registered by the Magistrates of
Commerce; and regulations were drawn up for the
Government of the Institution, which now received
the name of Rosines, (from, that of the fimndress,)
and above the principal entrance were inscribed the
'following words, addressed by Rosa to her first
companions: "You shall' live honestly by the
work of your hands."
The prosperous condition of her Institution
filled the heart of the pious foundress with joy,
but - She could not divest herself of a desire to ex
tend its blessings still farther. She had left an es
tablishment at Mondovi, and she wished now to
forrnsirnilar ones at other populous places. With
.this end , in view, she visited several provinces of
theltingdorzi r called around her all the young wo
merootto were-desirous of finding a decent means
of.intaiaterrie, and founded asylums at Novara,
Fosse; Savigliano;,Saluees,C.hieri and St. Damiano
d'Asto, all of , them towns of • considerable note
end population. These were provided' with the
necessary ; materials for work, and every other
want was generously supplied by the excellent and
kind_Rosa.

witty city. during all of which period she was en

In the establishrhentiof Rosines are received all
indigent young girls, of from thirteen 'to twenty
years of age, who have no means of subsistence,
but who are qualified for manual labor. "You
shall live honestly by the Work of your hands"—
such is the fundamental rule, and the base of the
establishments of Rosines, which is never perverted.
All the means of subsistence are derived from the
labor-of the young girls; and the resources for the
support of the aged and infirm members are pro
cured
from the work of their more youthful com
panions. The establishment , at Turin is a centre
of manufactures ; and so are the other affiiliated
houses, all of which flourish at the present time,
with the exception of that at Novara, which was
closed when that city became part of the kingdom
of Italy, and which has never been reopened since.
To avoid alt interference with the manufacturers
else where, Rosa orda ned that ail connected with
the different establishments should be atthe charge
°leach, that all should correspond with the prin
cipal institu tun at Turin, which should exerci!e
a surveillance over the others,' and be considered
the centre of their operations.
The Arts and Manufactures carried on by the
Rosines are as varied as the tastes of Woman can
make them. After receiving the raw material, the
whole operations front the first to last arc carried
on by them. Take, for example, all sil ken articles
The cocoons ofthe silk worm are purchased at
the propel season ; and the silk is they, spurt, and
undergoes every other preparation necessary before
it is delivered into the hands of the weavers. 'Ale
most beautiful stuffs—Gras de Naylcs. Levant Ines,
Satins, &c.—are,thus fabricated, and more particu
larly Ribbons, fur the manufacture of which there
are more than 26 looms These Ribbons are of
excelent quality and really beautiful. Those
silken stuffs, the fabrication of which requires a
frequent change of machine, are never made by
the Rosines, as in other manufactories, because in
that case, at every change of fashion they would
be obliged to introduce people from without into
their house.—But all that is really convenient and
useful may be found in their warehouses at almost
any time.—Linen is also fabricated in these insti
tutions; particularly table cloths; but this species
of work is very laborious to young women, and
Consequently there are not many employed in it.
A large number are likewiseoccupied in the manu•
factnreof cotton articles; the raw material being
purchaced by the Rosines, it is then transformed
into all kinds of goods. The Woolen Factory is
at Chieri, because at Turin it would interfere great
ly
• with the Silk Trade. The establishment is
complete in all its arrangements, the wool being
scourei', carded, spun and woven entirely by the
Rosines; who fabricate cloth of every quality from
it.
As may be supposed, there are many industrious
Rosines employed on the article of embroidery
In fact, in this particular branch the Rosines have
acquired as much perfection as cait possibly be ob
tained by the industry of woman. A new species
of manufacture has lately been introduced into the
establishments, namely, that of gold thread for the
fabrication of lace. This is a moat beautiful arti
de, and pirticulary adapted for church ornaments.
All the habiliments-of the clergy are made in the
institutions.
Our readers trill no doubt be curious Mistime by
what means the youug women contrive to dispose
of their various goods, in order to corer the middy
and to gain a profit on the raw material. This is
managed in the following simple mutter: Each
establishment acts, as we have said. as a :real
commercial depot and each of them has a maga
zine of shop attached to it, in whtch the handiwork
of the llosioca is sold by persons in the employment
of the itotitution..
All the cloths necessary for the army are put
chated by the Government from the warehouses of
the Rosines. They not only fabricate the cloth*
self, but oleo every other article of ornamental at•
tire, and skillful tailors are employed by them to
cut out the different coat pieces, which are then
perfected by the sisters. Beside this, the inhabi
teats of Turin, andeven the tradesmen themselves,
are glad to make their purchases at the institutism,
bemuse they-are sure to get every thing good and
cheap.
In this manner, then, the institutions are 'neve
in want of employment, and a considerable profit is
generally left after deducting all the expenses of
the different establishments. That at Turin alone
brings in a sum of .£3,331 61 8d per annum; it con
tains duce hundred females, among whom there
are about fiftyaged or infirm inmates , who in con
sequence are chargeable to the community. ..1
visited this remarkable institution." says Signor
Saeelti, " thanks to the kindness of a worthy eccle
siastic who presided over 'its administration. He
accompanied me round the different apartments,
which contained many young female ,'animated Ly
the holy ardor of labor Kith an air of quiet con
tent, the girls were engaged in their sevrel tasks,
all apparently animated w rib ariaLir.loly like that
which a mother displays when laboring with her
child:enter their common subsistence. Six mis
tresses and a matron preside over the different'
work-rooms, arid the iustitution is frequently sisi• l
ted by one of the ladies of honor to the Queen (of
Sardinia) bearing the commands of bet Majesty,
who gives her special pro'ection to the industrious
girls." Sucb is this asylum, truly admirable ur
all its details, founded by the exertions of a poor
woman •so true is it that Providence frequently,
from the smallest origin, produces the greatest:
results. The storyof Rosa Gus ona serves to prove I
in what way, without saddling and expense upon'
the citizens, and without donations or legacies, so
vast a schema of labor may be brought to a suc
cessful termination. In a little chapel adjoining
the workrooms I read the following monumental
•inscription : "Here repose thi:="remains of Rosa
Gerona de Mondovi, who from her youth conse
crated herself to God, (or w hose glory she founded ,
in her csaintry , in this city and divers others, retreats!
for unfortunate young females in order to lead them
to serve God, and give them excellent rules, to at
tach them to piety and labor. During her admin
istration of more than thirty years, sae gave con
stant proofs of an admirable charity and an in
domitable perseverance. She passed to the life
eternal the 2iith day of February,:in the year 1776,
and the GOth year of her age. The children re
cognizein her their mother and benefactress , and
consecrate this monument to her memory."
Humble words these, when one considers the
good which has been done, and the benefits which
these institutions still continue to confer upon the
country; and for which Rosa merits the highest
possible eulogiums. I was deeply affected, espe
cially when I considered that Rosa Gerona had
as yet received no place among the list of the bene
factors of the human race. May this little paper,
make her known as she deserves to be.

The " Independent" Press.
The Baltimore Sun, which is conducted with
much spirit and ability„recently gave the views
of its editor, (or editors,) on a matter vitally con-
nected with its own existence,and that of all others•
who seek to live by imposing false ideas of poli
tics upon the public mind. We make an extract,
for the purpose of indnlging in a few comments:
" The dogma of party, to which the independent
journal seems to be particularly obnoxious, is one
of the most impudent assumptions of an age in
which impudence may, with some hope of success,
pretend to cardinal esteem. It is contended, that
to exist without party allegiance, is to have no
political existence at all i and that be who rejects
the servility of character which party adherence
would impose, is unworthy to exercise the privt•
legea of a freeman. By what process of logical
deduction the advocates of such paradoxical sen
timeuts reconcile them with the most ordinary
suggestions of common sense, we presume they
would rather leave to conjecture than be compelled
to ex pl ain."
This denial of the existence of any settled po
litical principles, with which the editor sets out,
may be honest on his part,—and all who assert a
similar proposition may, also, be equally honest ;
but, if they are honest, then they are grossly, cul
pably ignorant. "The dogma of party ; "—or, in
other words—the settled opinions; the principles,
maxims, or tenets; the doctrinal notions of politi.
cal parties, are " the moat impudent assumptions
of an age in which impudence may, with some
hope of success, pretend to cardinal eateemr—
Now, we really think that it requires a degree of
impudence which puts to shame all the impostors
of past ages, and which will stand as a monument
lof the most consummate impudence for ages to
come, to assert such a proposition. An editor who
can by any means possess the hardihood to advance
such a doctrine, may well dislike to have the name
of neutral giren to his paper. He is indeed an in.
&pent:rut i—indepeadent of the sage lessees which
are to be learned from the past ; independent of
the living, and 'moving, and advancing present;
independent of the consequence.' that may be en.

come to, different conclusions, respecting what is
political truth ; are but as straws, as chaff, cowl
pared with the duceripent, the profundity, the
disinterestedness of the hybrid, 'neutral, political,
I or "Oultpeadent" press:
We are among the number of those who look
upon polities through a differeut medium We are
of the opinion that there is yet going on in the
world a great polairol streggle--an effort for seam
ing and maintaining the supremacy of political
principles opposed to each other. We think that
even io Europe, where there is discernable only
the dawning of a brighter day—only the infant et
I forts of the hale, for tight and poliiie".l knowledge,
Ithis struggle is going on ; %%bile in our own coon
' try we are enjoying the morning sun of freedom
and of liberty. We think that this light Witt , e
cured toasty the fathers of our government. TI ey

upon the charter of our Irbertiet those katuree,.
which, if not obliterated or deters's?, would be re.

ity. In their struggle they were obliged to eon
tend with the master advocates of old touts, and
antiquated notions—nien who could not recognize!
their race as being of a prOgressite nature, who
hared to trust their fellow men, and thought them
incapable of selfgovernment. The political prin..
dram espoused by the two parties were antipodes,'
but the (needs of freedom, of liberty, of man, tai
umphed.
On the adoption of our Constitution, the funda
mental truths asserted by the majority of the Con
vention which framed it, of course became a part
of that Instrument—were engrafted upon it—or;
rather, it sprang, Redid Minerva from the brain of
Jove, from those great truths.. The elements
which warred at its inception, continued to war
as it advanced ;—those elements tare ever been at
war; they arc warring still. This we assert as
truth, at this day; and this wa Where will ever
be true.
The conclusion to which these " independent"
writers would lead the public mind, is either that,
at the formation of our Constitution, the spirit—
the great principles—of monarchy and Federalism,
were destroyed; or that, from repeated and contin•
ised rebukes, it has been silenced. They would
lead the public mind to the belief, that our Consti
tution is an instrument, framed without an object,
and having no vital principles ; or that, with a
constitution for their government, of special and
unquestionable character, the people have a right
—and it is of course their duty—to act according
to any rule, either obsolete and discarded,or design.
ed to operate only for a Season, in contravention
of the spirit and the letter of an instrument, for
which they profess a sincere regard.
We hold that, if our constitution was the result
of a triumph of great principles, those principles
which triumphed, and those only, should be acted
upon in our government; that thee cannot be any
compromise with the principles which were pros
trated on its formation, without endangering the
whrkfabric; and that the man who seeks to sap,
by such means.the foundations of our political
system, is a moral traitor of the blackest char
octet. .
Entertaining such views, we are led, in common
with the m ass
. of our fellauccitizens, to contend
for the adoption of those measures, which we be
lieve best calculated to secure the great ends of
our government. A portion of our countrymen
believe that measures the opposite of those we ap
prove, will be most conducive to the good of the
country.- Their ideas and ours must of course run
connter, in relation to all measures affecting fun'
dameiatal principles—their designs and ours are
antagonist to each other. Thus are we arrayed
as opposing parties—each with different views of
the true character of our government, or actuated
by the desire to conform the action of that gov
ernment to our idea Of what the government should

And shalt we be unblushingly' .tokl, by tikes, hp
brici " independent" editors, that there is no such
thing as fixed political principles; that it is "the
most impudent assumption" to assert, that there
is a wide difference of opinion between our coun
trymen, in relation to'the fundamental principles
of government; and that 'these " independents"
are the only wise, and patriotic, and truth-loving
personages to be found in our country? Shall we
be told all this, and not hold up to view the arro
gant assumptions of such pretenders? We think
that !I sense of duty to our countrymen; to man
all over the world; to the great charter of our
liberties, forbids us to' remain silent. We think
that it is the duty of every editor, (whether con
tending for the measures supported by the " Whig"
or the Democratic parties,) to hold up before the
people in their true light, these "indepcndent''
concerns. Every man, properly impressed with a
sense of the importance of preserving our glorious
Constitution in its purity; every honest-minded
man, who opposes the views of the Democratic
party, but who thinks our Constitution is not a
rope of sand ; in short, all who think that the re I
are great political truths, and that error stalks
abroad in the world; all who seek for truth, and
would oppose error ; are called upon, by every con
sideration which men regard as sacred, in relation
to other matters, to rebuke the arrogance, and ex,
pose the impudence or ignorance, or both, of these
miscalled " independent " presses.
For ourselves, while we shall ever eonten I against
measures having any tendency to favor the triumph
of those principles once cherished, gloried in, and
manfully supported by the old Federal party, (and
now supported by the Whigs,")—we are prompt
ed by every consideration recognized as honorable
among contending parties, to extend courtesy and
respect to avowed opponents, who show than,
selves worthy; but we cannot look upowthase " in
dependents," in any other- light than that of buc
caneers, ready to war on either side, as considera
tions of pecuniary gain 'may horn day .to day
prompt them. Hang out your flag, gentlemen.
for the idea that any intailigent and a - en-informed
man, under a government like our., can be pos
sessed of no political principles, is entirely prepos
terous. We unhesitatingly assert, that, if there
be such a man in the country, La is unlit to exor

served some time ago a communication over the
signature for .A Parent," stating that De. Jayne's
Indian Expectorant had been the means of saving
the lives of three of his children, who were suffer
ing severely with whooping cough; and having, but
a short time'before, lost one of my children by
that dreadful complaint, and having another, and
my only child, suffering the greatest agony with
the same disease, and in hourly expectation of its
death, I was induced to purchase a bottle of it, and
commenced using it according to the directions—
and to the surprise of all it began to mend in fif
teen minutes after we eommenced using it, and the
child has now completely recovered.

Tar Itosrams.—Yi r e ask the attention-..6f 1 the
reading it'ublic'to a sketch, which we publish this
morniOg, giving exhibitions of this Order, and its
benevolent fonndir is the only. detailed 'ac
count of 'the me and - piogiess "of the 'Moine; we
have yet- seen: Some persons who cannot realise
that there is such a quality in the human breast as
disinterested benevolence, may doubt the-truth of
the account. It is, nevertheless, no fanCy sketch.
There is something instructive to he found in it;
something not in character with the ordinarraf
fairs of this life. _
The success of is poor and friendless orphan
girl, in her efforti to relieve the distresies of
her sex, should inspire with courage those who-. 1
have undertaken to do good deeds at the prokent
time. We have need of some Rosa Govonas in '
this country ; prosperous and happy as the people
are said to be. Here is an example that mon
might emulate with 'honor to themselves. How
many thousands who are now suffering from,want
—want of food, shelter, clothing and education,
and want of employment —in the cities and towns
of the United States, might be relieved and made
happy by the system of guarantesism which is de
picted in the article we refer tot
We do not say that such a system affords an op
portunity to the members to realize the true life
indicated by the instincts which God has given us;
yet here is a symptom of that divine order which
will prevail, when the work of present systernshas
been accomplished.
aTh° Telegraph of yesterday endeavored to
make it appear that the theories promulgated in
Doris' Revelations" are of an infidel
Of course our neighbor has a right to his own
opinion, but we should like to have some evidence
of the truth of such an assertion, -before paying
great attention to.it. If we understand the Eng
lish. language, when spread before us in large type,
we eau say that there is nothing like infidelity in
this book ; and it in no particular conflicts'With.la
true interpretation of the Word. Refer us to the
chapter and verse" which contain the o bnoxious
doctrines.
Exerarnerrs rtr Oliva srisar.—Da. COLTON

Ding—and among the philosophical Experiments,
be will give one in Galvouinn upon the body of a
dead Rat. The Rat will first be killed by being
placed in the exhausted Receiver of the air Pump,
and then be restored to life by the poles of the
Galvanic Battery. This is truly an interesting ex
perirrient, Dr. C. is as pleasing as instructive in
all his experiments. This evening Mr. Chadwick
and Mr. Amsden, from the Telegraph Office, will
be present to asssist to the demonstration of that
subject. Any message that may be banded in by
the audience will be tranamitted on the wire—the
whole operation being explained. The Court of
Death will dose the exhibitioo. Go early if you
West to secure sears.
Snoas Cossonsa, AGAIN.—We find in the
Gazette of yesterday. a letter from Mr. Robbins, of
Washington City, to . Mr. , Layng, of our city, in
which be says
Smoke,—es you are doubtless aware—results
from imperfect combustion, caused by a deficient
supply of air. A sufficient supply of air cannot
be admitted through the grate bars of a furnace
to cause a perfect combustion of bituminous coal.
To remedy this deficiency, Mr. Williams' is the
simplest and beet plan that can possibly he devis
ed, the surrounding a portion or the whole of
the throat of the furnace with ea air chamber
communicating with the throat by means of a se
ries of small apertures; through which apertures
the air will pass in jets into the yassious products
of combustion u they escape from, the furnace,
and mingling with the same, will convert all the
smoke contained therein into fhime."
Though certain grave councilmen have acted
badly in regard to this great and (to Pittsburgh)
important discovery, we have great faith that it
will yet he successfully applied to the furnaces,
&e. of our city, and the smoke nuisance entirely
abated. ,1)1r . Layng deserves great credit far his
eaertiods in this matter.
cr,j'A lady up town, labile attending ,so' . her
household affairs, discovered a rough looking fel.
low approach from the back alley in a sts4e that
quickly excited suspicion; she retreated into the
house, and seized her husband's pistol which she
presented at the window.; the scoundrel turned to
make his escape, but met with a slight obstacle
to the person of a black man who, observing what
was going on, took occasion to inflict a few well
directed blows upon the face of his customer, and
then started him off. The %Milan is a steamboat
deck band from Cincinnati, awl we understand
that this is not the first radir of the kind he has
been engaged in.
(0-A little tramp—but one who will one day
become h great one, was put in the watch-house on
Tuesday for stealing a melon from the Diamond.
"This is a business much practiced in this com

cO"Tlicre is a crazy man rambling through our
streets followed by a crowd of thoughtless boys
who bad better be otherwise employed. Has the
man no friends? or do they think it right that-be
should run at large? He needs the protection of
some person or institution. As for tholatter there
is none here! How will we be required to say so?
Axollßws' Sazoos.--Another concert to•night

this establiShment so well patronized. It exhibits

prowling about the city, will be published in a

some of his feats, he may be overtaken.
