From Mr. A' diseoursecon the life and, haracter of tkowditch, we learn that, through e whdle of his illness, that distinguished man anifeated a happy and delightful frame of rind. His ream did not appearthke the chain. rof sickness and dissolution. The light of his • rene and placid countenance dispelled all gloom nd hrs cheerful composure robbed death of all its uterness and anguish. He exemplified, in his *n case. the sentiment so beduhfully expressed i'Hafiz, the Persian poet, which he loved to .re sat— Oa parents' kleea, a naked, new-born child Veeping thou Wet, while all around the smiled; hire, that sinking in the last , long sleep. 'aim thou may smile, while all around thee weep.' He did not wish to see those about bim look d and gloomy. On one occasion he said, I feel no gloom within me ; why should you ear it on yiur faces?" And then he called for ryant's poeinr, and desired them to read his fa ourite piece, "The Old Man's Funeral :" Why weep ye, then, fur him who, baring won The bound of man's - appointed years it last, ife's blessings all enjoyed, life's labNtrs done, Serenely to his final nest has passed 7" And *ten he went on and commented on the eitaining lines of the poem, pointing out those -Fitch he anught descriptive of himself, and odestly disclaiming whets that were commen story., as not belonging to him ; but which ar. inpartial persons. would unite in saying, were insularly applicable to his character. On the morning of his death, when his. sight as very dim and his voide ■lmost gone, he Ailed his children 'around his bet' side, and, ar vnging them in the order of age, pointed to and ddre•sed eaeh by name, and said, "Yoe see I an distinguish you all; and I now give you all y parting blessing. The time is come. LOH, ow lettest thy servant depart in peace, Accord rig to thy word." These were his last - words.— ; After this, he was heard to whisper, in a carcely a udable tone, the words "pretty, pleas .: nt, bra attfuL" But it cannot be known, Whether MIS thinking ofbis own situation as pleasant, n being thus surrounded, at such a time, by i hose be loved, or whether he.

When the emperour had thus mide full proof of their dis po‘itions and characters. he removed ill who thus basely complied with his supposed. wishes, and retained the others, saying.

But the impressions by which we were govern ed in this respect, we regret to state have not been realized. An unparalleled outrage on the rights and laws of ,nations has been again committed, and that too, within 'the limits and boundary , of the American eonrederation.

The indig nation which will b erdsed through the colonial provinces by this renewed aggres sion on the rights and property of their subjects, will not, we are apprehensive, be easily extinguished, and the retaliatory spirit of latent and unsubdued hostility and exasperation which it will call into action will, if not promptly and judiciously coun teracted, expose our northern frontier to scenes of renewed violence and uncontrol led passion. The feeling expressed in the following language of the New York Cou rier and Enquirer, in relation to the sub ject, will be fully shared by the mass of the American people:—Pkil. Gas. u Not fiur an instant should foreigners be permitted, who seek an asylum in our territory, to commit from it, outrages un pardonable in themselves, disgraceful to our national character, and pregnant with nsequences of the most serious import. But we do not believe that Canadian refu gees are alone iniplicated in this wanton act of destruction, sure we are that they must at least have been aided and -abetted in its commission by American citizens; fur there is no part of our shores, however remote, where the necessary preparations fur it could have been carried on, without escaping the observation of those residing near. We would tell these people, that if they draw upon themselves that retaliation they so justly merit, they will meet with no consolation in the feelings, no resource in the sympathies of their fellow citizens elsewhere. It may not be that the great interests of the people of the United States should be endangered by desperadoes act ing under impulses in which not One man in a hundred thousand participate., 4.

Shall we be told that the perpetrators, amount- Mg to some fifty in number, cannot be dis covered 1 Or, if discovered, that Grand Juries will not find bills of ,indictment a ga - inst them ? And shall we thus see them escape, unwhipped of justice!" ' The Albany Evening Journarof Friiag sap.: It is mortifying to reflect that along the entire frontier which bordr rs upon Canada, our Government has furnished no force either to preserve the peace or to enforce the laws ! Nothing like a garrison is kept up along the whole line of the lakes! Not a U. S. soldier is - stationed upon our bor. dens! And yet, such has been the angry ate of feeling, fur the last eight months, that any othei Government would have sent troops to the North. But the imbe ciles at Washington understand nothing but politics. Ten thousand troops are employed in Florida fighting fur swamps, which Gen: Jesup says are `•not worth the medicines expended in conquering them." In the meantime the whole Northern and Western frontier is left defencel.ers and unprotected! Here is a steamboat burnt within six miles of Sachet's Harbor, a here there should have been U.

It is added 'that tbe :Van Buren members are called in to their seats, and the. fear is en tertained that advantage will be taken of the absence °flame Whig members to car. ry the.bili. We trust that those whose bu siness it is to guard the interests of the public, will not, °by absence, from their post, allow a measure so deleterious to the nation to be carried, at t least without all the appeal - lion which can be mustered a gainst it. After we had prepared the above for the press, we found the following in the New York Courier and Enquirer : "We -were much 'astonished to learn from the letter of our Washington Correa pendent, which will be found in another column, and which, by the by, ought to have reached us in time fur yesterdays's pa per, that there is ground for apprehension that the Sub Treloury scheme may be car vied through the Horse of Representatives at a moment whenthose who are opposed to the infamous measure are absent from their seats. -Should any Whig members be found wanting on an occ:nrion so deeply of fecting the deafest intere4ts of the com munity; heavy indeed will be the responsi bility they will incur.

The London Morning Chronicle has fidetailert narrative of the expedition, from which the following abridgment is obtained "" t he scientific expedition undertaken at the expen4 of the Hudson Bay Com pany, to survey the extreme northern coast of America, has, in part, fulfilled its object.

They thus completed the survey of the coast between the ex• treme points laid down by Capts. Beechey and Franklin.

The result of the trials which have been had in this city, before the New York An nual Conference of the Mothodist Church, on the rharge that some of its members had disturbed tke church with discussions of the subject of abolishing slavery, has been, that two of the accused. were sus pended from the ministry.

The number of Delegates in attendance was, we think, belween eighteen hundred and two thousand. The lists on Tuesday afternoon amounted to sixteen hundred and seventy-one delegates, but they were in complete, some lists of delegates not hav ing been yet furnished, and others not be ing full. The Porter Convention, as the body appeared in procession, amounted to not more than twelve hundred and fifty delegates. This we know to be a true statement, because, their number was counted 'by three persons separately, whose computation Agreed within a few persons, more or less, and we have given the highest computation. We have thought, proper to be thus explicit, because of the conflict : ing rumors on the subject. The Porter procession presented a large appearance. This was owing to the facts that about one third of the number was mustered in Reading, a considerable por tion consisted of individuuls from other counties, and a large number of boys un der age being on lhe outskirts. From the bragging predictions of the Porter men, we were prepared to see a much larger body, especially as Old Berke polls up wards of nine thousand votes, and they claim a large majority therein. We look upon this procession as little better than a failure, because it fell very far short of previous announcements. They boasted they would outnumber the Ritner delega tion two to one, but they reckoned without their host. - The Convention met in the Lutheran church.

The president address ed the Convention on taking his seat in . very happy and eloquent manner. Corn. minces were soon after appointed to preen re an address and resOutions. The address is one of the ablest of similar productions ever penned, and the resolutions highly expressive of the sentiments of the Con vention. The Convention was addressed by t - large number of gentlemen in a style of unsurpassed eloquence. Among the number who addressed the Convention, were Messrs.
