The Dire Doctrine.—Wo copy the following ex• cellout extract from Nicholas Biddle's Address before the Agricultural Association, of the County of Phila: delphis, in October last. It breathes the true doc trine—and strange as it may aouadt to some of the leaders of locofocnisin in this region, as firmly be lieve that the employer and man of blisiness is more interested in keeping up the price cifl'labor than the laborer hirbeelf: a With regard to wages, it may sound strangely, yet I believe it to be true, that the reel interest of all farmers ie,i that wages shaild be high, end for.this reason. 4 laboring man is not a mere machine—a human poor.bos, into whose mouth is put a daily number of 'cents never to re-appear, bat a living being with mina! ) and desires, which he will not fail tb grad fy the moment he posseses the means: If he can earn only a 'entity pittance, just enough to keep him alive, he starves on accordingly—his food bread end, water, a half fed, half clad, wholly untaught, animal,' with a useless mouthful of e,amivoroos teeth But if his Wa ges increase, be instantly employs them in comfort,: in clothes for himself and family ; and, as he rises in the scale, irenfures on the taste of anat. He em• ploys a tailor—a ehoemakery--a hattehe butcher— and these, tin turn, purchase the airtorials of i their trade from,ihe farmer himself. The taborer beomes lima a custOmer of himself; and the payer ' of other 1 .enatonaerstend the fariner receives back, with abaft deakintereet, the difference which he advance ' s in the elliptan l re between high wages and low wages. It is faii, andis lesson that one of our shrewdest farmer. t ill j ,say, yea;give our laborers good \eagise, and they wilf3lay our beef. 'Thus, too, t he bounties of • Prdvidetim: go 'round a bene fi cent circle—and, after making ' te laborer better fed, battr clndt better taughteitlabort. a better man, thei'farmer himself is richer for very henefita he dive:meal ( Depend upon it, there no surer Sign of nada* prospeiitythan high wpm "" , and God grant that lei many a long year if 'AM* be the, lot of our countrytnen, who al,. gist bfoilabiir of their barite, to work well+-to be paid welt—and to five well: • Harrison and .Tylat's.

From recent experiments made in Steamers on the Thames, and several other pluck there is no doubt but,that the Welsh Anthraciteal, will soon ,supercede 'the Bituminous Coal on d the Steam Vessels and Steam-boats. It possesses decided ad vantages both in Point of economy, cliranliness, and requires less room on board the vessel's. In this country, Anthracite has beCn used for consideiablo time in several Steamers Irunning from New York, with Out encountering any difficulty in its use, and the actual saving in fuel in some instan ces, is at least one half since they abandoned the use of wood.

But tie excitement has passed away, and it is to be hoped in Ith, e calm that has succeeded it they will find leisure and inclina tion to turn their attention to the inquisition of science and literature.. The directors of lute Lyceum, as we are informed, bold themselverr in readiness to furnish lectures through the winter, if they can once ascertain that it is the wish of our citizens to hear them. But with them it must rest.. he directors 1' can procuie lecturers, but they cannot neure listen ers ; that most rest with the citizenrof he place.
