LAPT MOXIMTS OF 111VDTTCR.
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. "snatched a fear
ul joy" in a glimpse of the spiritual world.
• .n, after this, he quietly breathed away his
out and departed. "And the end of that man
as peace." Such a death alone was wanting to
oinpletc sorb a li f

Constantine, when be was rbosen emperour,
found several Christians in Orme, and hawed en
edict, requiring them to renounce their .faith, or
quit their -places. Most of them gave pp their
offices, to preserve their conscience; tint some
cringed and renounced Christianity. 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. "that those who
would desert or deny their Divine Master, would
desert him, and were not worthy his confidence,"

Manners.—Our people are superior in

people of Europe, and inferior in others.
The gentlemen have less finesse, but more

tial, by great kindness and civility. In that
part of depoitment which affoiets the rights
of all, such as the admission of general and

following extract:
"The speech of Mr. Ha f fseed," says the

and shows by a hat method the people's

has been again committed, and that too,
within 'the limits and boundary , of the

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

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

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. S. snldiers.—
But there were none, and justice slumbers
until an express is sent to Albany ! And
in this miserable manner every thing is
managed. There is not a Government in
the world so corruptly and arretaiedly ad
ministered as ours.

so as to keep upon the people a pressure
that shall break dem o their spirits. It is
added 'that tbe :Van Buren members are

tertained that advantage will be taken of
the absence °flame Whig members to car.

siness it is to guard the interests of the

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

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. Recreant to their
party, t* their country, they will receive
and merit the execrations of every patriot.
But we cannot believe it. • We cannot
think- that- those who have hitherto so man
fully resisted the open and covert assaults
of the enemy, will be found sleeping on
their posts, when he makes this, his last
and most dangerous assault, yet when the

Mackenzie river in boats./ They reached
the ocean on the 9th of July last, and, pro

to Point' Barrow. They thus completed
the survey of the coast between the ex•

Young Mos's Calve:Jahn at Reading.—
1 4.
The Young Men's Con Lion at Reading
was the largest .- Come x ever held in
Pennsylvania, and Mischa tensed 'rued dire
out its proceedings'by g t harmony in
;feeling and unanimity in sentiment. There
can be no doubt but that the most impel..
tent and beneficial results to the great
cause of American liberty and national
prosperity will follow trom this assemble 4-
of young men 'from every_ , . ': . o the
Key Stone State. The immmediate efects•
will 'be felt at once throughout Pennsylva
nia, and we ree not without hopes that
even old Berke heiself, astonished as she
evidently was ',by so vast a commune as
sembled at hei county seat, will-awake to
new political life and feeling.
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. A temporary organization took
place preparatory to a permanent organic
1 zation. Sexist M. Bsseear, Esq., of
; Bedforcrcounty ; presided, assisted by 38
1 Vice Presidents. 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. Spackman, Benedict, James,
Hanna, Morris,. Titus, Brady and Darling.
We shall lair - before our readers a, per
titer of the proceedings on Wednesday
next.
We have now the fullest confidence in
the triumphant success of our Farmer
Governor! We believe - that his majority,
at the next election, will astonish hoth
friends and foes. From all quarters of the
state, intelligence o the most cheering
and encouraging k heard. Our
Governor is the faecal of the yeornarry,
whpse good sense and intelligence cannot
be misled by the calumnies and abuse of
the Porter faction ! Their favorite epithet
of "stupid old Dutchman," will do them
more harm than good. The people would
be blind indeed to follow such blind guides!
We may thank 'Providence that the state
is out of -their clutches, and that she is
likely to remain so. ,

Great exertions had been previously made
