in expressing an opinion, I have feared to die

You know , far heuer than I can, if Nature has
capacited you to fill the high office of a teacher to

teacher of the most glorious and momento u s
truths—you knotv it, because in Such ease,
strength will have been given you to speak such
words as the world shall rejoice to listen to. Yost ;

you cannot give to your lyre the angel tone you

You are young and. aspiring ; you would fain
win the dfstinction and honor, paid to intellectual
powers, do not I pray yon, deceive yourself—if
applause and wordly greatness is what you seek,
'you will fipd, with sorrow, that Fame is the fast

whom; by your Words of personal counsel, you
might encourage and cheer—there are so many
rough placei one might make smooth by a trilling
effort—there is scr much of darkness where the
good will of the Merciful can make light! Irjy
friend, it may not be idle to speak these words
even to you; there are so many of us, who through
carelessness, neglect to give to charity more than
the mere lip-service—so many who give to honest
suffering virtue only the plaudit of brilliant rhymes
—so
.many who worship God only by adoring
atanzas,•and not by the service of the heart—so
many,who. mistake auperablindant sentiment ..for
overflowing kindly love
There is certainly no danger of our entertaining
too bigh a respect for "honesty poverty " and " a'
that"—too much of love and admiration cannot
perhaps lie'rendered to g' all - things beautiful "
nor cart a mortal, by any possibility, entertain too
much of reverence for our great Creator; the real
danger is that profession of regard may take the
place of honestly felt love and veneration for
goodness in whatever shape it may , be presented—
ills possible for the notes of ihe musical-box to
quite drown the melody of the bird voices"—
and easily the artificial may be taken for the liv-•

then would not this be a world truly worth living

If; while the 'teacher pro O aimed his inattired

Lo and behold it stood 39-46. You can give, the
names as thereteith give the; papery taken down at
the time from the seat I have the pleasure to occu
py, next sloor to friend Biddle. This is a triumph
for the people worthy of.their gratitude. Good
speeches were delivered by those sterling friends of
the right of the messes in ccintradiatinetlon 'to'il e
pampered few, Messrs. Laird, Roberts, Redick,
Hanson ind'ls4yera;med that can be relied on in
every emergency. Let them be cherished with
their co.laborors, (in the good work of protection to
those that are bound to work for a hving,) by every
lover of sound principles in government. Now is
the time thstiests Democratswhen they shOuld .
stand firin-:-It is then and then only that we can tolt
who may be relied on. Good for those eminent
men—they stand on a platform not to be shaken or
disturhed by false pretences.
It is glory enough For aae day to ,bave defeated

But fur the Democracy to assist in fraud wilt:never
be tolerated by an indignant and insulted constitu

used to carry out this grand bubble, you ceold hate
occasion to rejoice with me and °thereat the State's

mischief mama. I hope they will repent, (that is
the Democratic portiono and sin no more. to for
the Whigs, notes of soy description bare at all
times peculiar attractions for them, and let them
and theirs ulone bear the responsibility of their
