The Model Artistes We give place, below, to another communication from our' correspondent " SErtak," in relation to * the disgraceful and libidinous eihibitions of the "Model Artistes;' to which we direct the atten tion of ever) reader. It is a matter of astonishment, thatina city so celebrated fur the virtue of its citi tent, as Pittsburgh, a band of licentious women and depraved moo, should be permitted to exhibit their not ed persoia, to gratify the morbid appetites of the Instil:l and profligate. It appear& as if the.sin fel days of Sodom were upon us, rather than the Nineteenth Century of the Christian Era 1 We un derstmad that our Mayor, the Hon. GABRIEL ADAMS, ia.disposed to put a stop to the shameless exhibitions attain Atheism= ; but is of the opinion, that he beano legal authority to interfere. But in this, we think, he is mistaken. It is trite, there is nothing in tbe City Ordinances, which directly authorises hitt; to abate the nuisance complained oft but we trust Aetirill not consider us officious, when we tell him that any indecent exposure of the person, is a mis demeanor at Common Law. The books arc full of cases ; but we will cite only a ftw. In the " Or dinances of the City of Pittsburgh," its collated by the late EPHRAIM Ptsertario, Esq., and published in 1828, by Johnston and Stockton, the folios, ing will be'found as a note to the Chapter on Bathing It t% an indictobte.niferme at continuo law, for any one Viiblicirre bathe nod expose theim,eivee untied, near to the highways and balmatinio of the citizens; and puntish able, by fine and imprisonment at the diScretion of the court.

The book here 'lusted from is unquestionably in the handl tit the Mu3or and the City Magistrates, and it la their duty, as conservators of the peace, to interpose their authority, and arrest the abandoned crudites who are exhibiting themselves at the Atheneum. Let Mr. ADAMS do hie duty boldly and tkailesaly, and be will be entitled to the praise of every good citizen. We are told by some of the newspaper editors of this city,Ahat there was nothing improper in the two first exhibitions of the ...Models." We are not pre pared to express an opinion an this matter, 'as we did not see them ; but we do know, from the testi mony of respectable papers in the East, that bow over chute and .classical these exhibitions pretend od.t2 be at first, they become, eventually, too dis gusting, revolting, and beastly, for even the gz.ae of reruns who made no pretensions to morality.— From the Ainerican of yesterday, we learn that the IlhaMelets wretches at the Atheneum were to ap pear last night, in a perfect state of nudity! Can this be possible After such an exhibition, we trust no body of respectability, will hereafter visit the Athenicum, under any pi etence whatever. Let every virtuous lady in the community place,hcr seal of condemnation upon the man who would lease irisliroperty for an object so base and infamous. For the morning Pt,,,. Model Artists. While the press is the palladium of public liberty, why may it not also be the conservator of public morals t The power of the press in g eater than the power of the throne. Its influence is almost om nipotent for good or fur evil. It can elevate and im . prove the morale ofa people ; or, by catering to the 'Mentions passions, bring down a nation to destruc ,tioe. - The time was, and that but lately, when the vices, of the great metropolises of Europe, were in a measure unknown in this favored land ; but a fear ful change is taking place among no; and the p'ague spot, carried like the Cholera from Parisian dens ofinfamy and debauchery, is not only to be seen in our seaboard cities, but ,we, may now behold it in all its hideousness in our midst I The MODEL ARTISTES are but the beginning, the opening wedge to a cur tent of dissoluteness and debauchery, which will spread like a contagion. Unless the senate, the pul pit and the press, put forward their energies to puri fy the moral atmosphere, and atop the infiction, it witlitoo, . be too late! I rejoice to see that one press, at least, in. Pitts burgh has put forth its influence to vindicate the MISR of good morals; hut II is with unfeigned sor row I see that others are disposed to lead the unwa ry into temptation, by countenancing these vile French exhibitions, and manuracturing . sentiment in their Favor. Theme E liters have no fear for the youth; and think that vice, to be bitted,ni e Is only tote set n! They will not recolledt that, ‘• Seen too oft, fatniliar with her face. We first endure, then pity, then embrace." MODEL ARTISTES, grouped in voluptuous figures, to inflame the libidinous passions of youth, arc not the invention of modern times. They were originally exhibitemi in Crete; from thence they were trans plauted to sioni ; and in the luxurious gross of Daphne, with rites too infamous for description, the shameless and profligate population of Antioch crowded to behold them. After glutting their eyes on the Model Artistes of the groves, history tells us that new sights were demanded—other passions had to,be gratified: " Let Polycarp he apprehended !" witioneetthoury. of the multitude on their return to ‘tbeeitY.

And, ala. ! now, the moral contagion is here; and although the Legislatures of States, the Marna of cities, the ministers of Religion, and an übproatauted press, have condemnel these wanton exhibitions, and with an unanimity and sincerity which speaks trumpet tongued in raver of public virtue—yet it is to he deplored that we have editors of newspapers in Pitts burgh who will for a trifling advertisement, or the personal 'gratification of sense, lend their aid to cor rupt the youth orour city, and lead them by temp tation, to the dark valley and shadow of Death. Some of these editors have families; and if not for their own sake, at least for the sake of their children, let them endeavor to stop the tide of licentiousness be ' fore it overspreads the country.; let them o assume 1 a virtue if they have it not." I perceive, by the Journal of this morning, that its editor tries to produce ,the impression, that he :has not favored these demoralising exhibitions. Row far he has succeeded in exculpating himself from censure, is best shown by his own admission, that he would not say any thing to apprize the public of their character ; when he must have known that, in the eastern cities, where they had been exhibiting —the pulpit, the Grand Juries, the Legislatures, the ..Tess, and the mass of good citizens, of every part. ss and sect, had denounced them. Even now that be I has seen them, lie ventures upon scarcely a half way condemnation. scars. Gins. Scott and Worth In order that our readers may he enabled tojudge for themselves, of the nature of the more recent difficulties between these distinguished officers, we lay before them the entire correspondence, which led to the arrest of the latter by the General in chief and which, perhaps, affords one of the reasons for the convenin g a Court of Inquiry at Perote, before which Gea.

The North seems to claim the man, and as i; has once given away its favorite, and tell into the support ofa Southern man, we see no good rca son why the South and West should not show t be i same liberality. There are many named w connea ion with the Presidency in the North, who would re ceive the cordial support of the Democracy of the West, should they receive the nomination of the Convention. Among the most proininect of these are James Buchanan, Martin Van Boren mid George M. Dallas.

Mr. Buchanan, her favorite eon and statesman, has been lone identified with the great Democratic party of the Union, a;;d has by Ida consistent and straight-forwa r d course, made many warm and ardent friends. Several oftheamunties in this State have, at public met tinge of the Democracy, expressed a preference for Mr. Buchanan, and we have no doubtobould he receive the nomination ofthe Convention,that Missouri would give him over 10,000 majority over the . Whig candidate whoever he may be. ARRIVALS AT BOSTON AND BALTIMORE—•The whole number of vessels that arrived at Roston, during the last month, was 137; of which 129 were American vessels.

T/TE DVEL.—From the New Orleans Picayune, of the .I2d ultimo, wo learn, that the statement (.1" Mr. Pauterts.s having been killed in a duel near New Or leans was altogether untrue. The friends or that gentleman and Mr. ERWIN, his alleged antagonist, produced an amicable settlementlf: the difficulties which it wan supposed would lead to a duel. A METF.ol6.—one of the most brilliant and unu sually large meteors ever seen, passed oven Angus. ta, in Maine, on the 24th ultimo, between 8 and 9 o'clock.

Tribune: " It is reported that a company_ hr forming in this city to fish for pearls on the coast ,of Cumana, a province of Venezuela, South America. This is said to be a first rate locality for deep diving, a pearl having been fetched up there in .1587, worth $150,. 000. The new fishing is to be conducted by a joint stock concern, with Capt. Taylor's sub-marine ar mor. All the divers will also be furnished with a new sort of revolving pistols, which will go off un der water, as a means of defence against sharks and othei' uncomfortable creatures down there, as well as for the purpose of blowing., open the unyielding shells of the older and tougher oysters." 247 - Messrs.

His parents are poor, and were compelled to send little Fred into the streets to earn his living nod get his educa tion. He has been a newsboy for years; and his face is familiar to many of our citizens. There is no bad expression in his countenance; Nature has done her work for him as well as for any one. And yet, the prospect is that he may become a vagabond, or pest to the city. He may become one of that griming class, who live by plunder, and who do not stop in their career, though a life may stand in the way lie may cost society many a heap of .dollars; he may cost lives, health and wealth. In view of all this, what should be. dose with him, and the numerous class to which he belongs?
