PAPAL TRODBLEA' IN ENGLAND.
The New York Courier gives the following,
as the Spanish opinion of the church difficul
ties, now pending in England : •
The Pontifical bull creates a regular Csith- -
olic hierarchy in England. The ancient
Protestantism, wounded by the shafts of the
Vatican, has risen in mass, strong in spite of
her prolonged inaction, and as proud as in the
says of the Prince of Orange. Neither the
nlture of editorial labors, nor our own cir
cumstances permit us to examine at length
the question—Which party is in the'right in
this contest? And much less can we enter
into details concerning the events which
have taken place since Dr. Wiseman was
created Archbishop of Westminster. We
have attentively read the resolutions of the
Protestant meetings, the innumerable ad
dresses to the Queen, by alt classes of society
and all sorts of persons, from the clergy of
London to the women of Liverpool, the let
ters of the ministry and high dignitaries of
i i
the church ; , nd finally the defence of the
b
Pope, made the new Cardinal and some
of his co-reli onists ; and we deduce from
these contradi tory sources one fact : viz.—
That Pius 9th overstepped his faculties in
giving !mil: denominational prelates to a
State which has its official worship, and
whose chief ruler combines with the title of
temporal prince that of pontiff. If, even in
countries under Catholic powers, for the es
tablishment and designation of episcopal sees,
it is necessary to have the express consent of
the civil aintiority, must it not be necessary
in a nation separated from the Roman com
munion ever since the sixteenth century
The desire of propagandism is inherent in
every creed, and that of missions in every
true believer. W itness those associations of
the United Kingdom. which inundate with
books and preachers, Italy, Malta, Gibralter.
,and other places, and who can wonder that
Catholicism catechise Protestants in Great-
Britain ? But when the Pope, inn way like
this, attempts to strike a blow in the dao,
'the anger of one party is 'excited, and he
support, of the other is alienated. If in I S4S,
when ]ltaly hailed Pius IX. as the hero of
lihe:ty add independenee, and all Europe
fixed on him her eves, filled with respect and
enthusiasm, if he had launched- the encyclic
which he has now' unadvisedly 'published,
when he has lost his prestige as a Prince, the
effect might,perhaps, have been different. Not
because England would have obeyed it,—n :
but in exchange for the opposition of one na
tion lie might have counted on the aid of
others. who probably would not have denied
it to him, because he blessild, in the bame
of the Divinity those who went to fight for
the holy cause of the political emancipation
of the world. But now the very contrary
happens. The papal governments which,
for greater liberty no doubt, is encircled with
foreign bayonets—that Government which';
has retrogradt d to absolutism after proclaim
ing
reform—that Government, justly se- ,
cused by the nations of being the cause of
their misfortunes and slavery—confronts and
comes' into 'conflict with a nation' in which
the patriotic spirit and religious belief are
deeply rooted ; - which, from interest or other
reason, almost always shows herself friendly
to the ideas of progress. and offers a gener
ous hospitality to the victims of despotism.
See how even English Catholics them
selves condemn the conduct of the Vatican,
by the authorized lips of Lord Beaumont
and the Duke of Norfolk ; and how resistance
to Papal invasion finds9dmirers in those
who ought at least to exedlpate the Pope, but
for the causes we have pointed out. The
Morning Advertiser of the liith proves this
conclusively.
( Here the Spanish Editor quotes the an
nouncement of a meeting of Italians in Lon
don to protest against the Pope's bull.)
To this lamentable condition have the Ro
man clergy been reduced by their errors.—
Opposed by the Protestants, and repudiated
by many Catholics in the English question,
they will be compelled to retire humiliated
and convinced of their impotency. Such a
disgrace would not have been suffered, if
Pius IX. had sent an army, under the com
mand of General Durando, to defend the
common liberty ; if he had armed his subjects,
declared the liberty of thought, and promised
never to abandOn the enlightened career
which he began.
That the Government at London under
stands the 'weakness of .its adversaries, is
evident from the prorogation of Parliament
until the - 4th of February. If they thought

GENERAL ADVFAIRTISER.
The following well • authenticated facts
will illustrate theprinciple that man is never
too old' to learn.
Socrates. at an extreme old age, learnt to
play on musical instruments. This would
look ridiculous for some of the rich old men
in our city,Witt if they shotild take it
into their he ads thrum n guitar under a
lady's window, which Socrates did not'do,
but only learnt to play upon some instru
ment of his time, not a guitar, fbr the pur
poseof resisting the wear and tear of old age.
Catchlit eighty years of age, thought pro
per to learn the Greek language.' Many of
our young men at thirty and forty, have
forgotten even the alphabet of a language,
the knowledge of which was necessary, to
enter college, and which was made a tinily
exercise through college. A fine comment
upon love of letters, truly.
Plutarch, when • between seventy and
eighty, commenced the study of the Latin.
Many of our young lawyers, not thirty years
of age, think that nuiprius, wire facms, 4.c.,
are English expressions: and If you tell'
them that a knowledge of the Latin would
make them appear a little more respectable
in _their processions, they will reply that they
are too old to think.of learning Latin.
Baccacio was shirty-fiyeyearsof age when
he commenced his studies in polite literature.
Vet he became one of the three great masters
of the Tuscan dialect, Dante and Petrarch
being the other two. There are many among
us ten ten years younger than Baccacio, who
are dying of ennui, and regret that they were
not educated to a taste for literature, but now
they are too old.
Sir Henry Spelman neglected the sciences
in his youth, but commenced the study of
them when he was between fifty and sixty
years of age. After this time he became
the most learned antiquarian and lawyer.—
Our young men begin to think of laying their
seniors on the shelf when they have reached
sixty years of age. How different the pre
sent estimate put upon experience from that
which characterised a certain period of the
Grecian• republic, when a man was not al
lowed to open his mouth in caucuses or
political meetings, who . was under forty
years !
Colbert, the famous. French Mini§ter, at
sixty years of age, returned to his Latin
and law studies. How many of college
learnt men have ever .looked into their clas.
sics since their graduation I
Dr. JohnstM applied himself to the Dutch '
language but ,a few years before his death.
Most of our merchants and lawyers of twen
ty-five, thirty and forty years of age, 4 nre
obliged to apply to a teacher to translate a ,
business letter written in the French lan
guage, which might be learnt in the tenth
part of the time required for the study of the, I
Dutch : anti all because they are too old to
learn.
Ludovico Monaldesco, at the greatage of
one hundred and fifteen, wrote the memoirs
of his own times—a singular exertion, no
ticed by Voltaire, who was himself one of
the most remarkable instances of the pro
gress of age in new studies:
Ogilby, the translator of Homer add Virgil,
was unacquainted with Latin and Greek till
he was past fifty.
Franklin did nut fully commence his phil
osophical pursuits till he had reached his
fiftieth year. How many among l us of thir
ty, forty,- and fifty, who read nothing but
newspapers for the want of a taste for natu
ral philosophy ? But they are too old to
learn.
Accorso, a great lawyer, being asked why
he began the study of law so late, answered
that indeed he began it late, but he should
therefore master it thelsooner. - - This agrees
with our theory, that healthy old age gives
a man the power of accomplishing a difficult
study in much less time,than would be ne
cessary to one of half his years.
Dryden, in his sixty-eighth year, commen
ced the trio:Oath:in of the Iliad and his most
pleasing productions were Written in his old
age.
We could go on and cite thousands of . ex
amples of men who commenced a new study
and struck out into an entirely new pursuit,
either for livelihood or amusement, at an
advanced age, But every one familiar with
the biography .of distinguished men, will
recollect individual cacti lugh to convince
him that none 'd indolent will
ever say, / o- Y•

NEVER TOO OLD TO LEARN
EM
The gentle transfusion of mind into mind
is the secret of sympathy. It is never Under
stood, but ever felt ; and where it is allowed
to exert its limier, it fills and extends intel
lectual life far beyond the measure of ordi
nary conception.
A beautiful form is better than a beautiful
face : da beautiful behavior is better than a
beautiful form. It gives a higher pleasure
than statues or pictures ; it is the finest of
the fine arts.
Revenge is a mbmentary triumph, of
which the satisfaction dies at once, and is
succeeded by remorse; whereas, forgiveness,
which is the noblest of all revenges, entails
a perpetual pleasure.
Those who are incapable of shining but by
dress, would do well to consider. that the
contrast betwixt them and their clothes turns
out much to their disadvantage.
Truth is not only a man's ornament, but
his instrument ; it is the great man's glory,
and the poor man's stock. A man's truth is
his livelihood, his recommendation, his let-
ters of credit.
Religious controversy sharpens the under
standing by the-subtlety and remoteness of
the topics it discusses, and braces the will by
their infinite importance.
He who dies in the path of duty, deserves
a nobler name than he who leads a victorious
artily over the ruins of a . cOnguered kingdom.
He that considers how little he dwells uptin
the condition of others, will learn how little
the attention of others is attracted by himself.
The
,first fault that a man commits is to
take theories for experience; the second
consider his own experience as that of all.
True Religion will show its influence in
every part of our conduct ; it is like the sap
of a living tree, which penetrates the most
distant boughs.
It is a sign of wisdom to be willing to re
ceive instruction : the most intelligent some
times stand in need of it.

To a young man, lothina is So important as

some amiable woman, whose image may:
well occupy his heart; guard it from pollu

ought to choose his wife, as- Mrs. Primrose ,

"wear well." , One thing at least is true,
that if matrimony has its_ cares, celibacy
has - no pleasure. A Newton, or a mere

We . like to see . active and industrious boys
'of fifteen nod sixteen year's of age : we know
they will make 'smart men. There are
semis of such in this city, who are learning
thenysteries of trades, or working behind a
counter. They are cheerful and happy :
have.a pleasant look and a kind word for all.
But there are other boys who are dull and
lizy. At sixteen years of age you will find
them 'hanging about corners, or wasting
their. time ,in idle society. They will not
work to support themselves and are obliged
to call on their parents fdr their clothing and
support. Such boys will turn out miserable
tools: Few Men care to take boys who have
I arrived .to sixteen or seventeen years ef age,
and have contracted idle habits in the -form
ation of their characters. Those lads love
to stress well and make a good appearance
and parade about the streets to show them
selves; but they are good for . n6thin ,, to a
Mechanic or merchant and never can be, un
less they di ft their lazy habits and engage in
some business.
In many instances paients are remiss in
duty . . They will neith i er let their sons go to
this place nor to the other, for fear they will
soil their hands or dirty their clothes; and so
they keep them: candling -about the house
till they become altogether too old io find
place's. The sea generally brings them up
at last, unless they_ rust out and die of what
is politely called consumption.—[Port Ruz.

THE USEFUL AND THE BEAUTIFUL
The tomb. of Noses is unknown ; but the
traveller slakes his thirst at the well of Jacob.
The gorgeous palace of the wisest and
wealthiest of monarchs, with the cedar, and
gold, and ivory, and even the great temple of
Jerusalem, hallowed by the visible glory of
the Deity himself—are gone ; but Solomon's
reservoirs are as perfect - as fiver. Of the
ancient architecthre of the-Holy City, not
one stone is left upon another : but the pool
of Bethesda commands' the pilgrim's rever
ence at the present day. The columns of
Persepolis are mouldering into dust : but it:
cisterus and aqueducts remain to challenge
our admiration. The golden liuuse of Nero
is a mass of ruin : but the Aqua Claudia still
pours into Rome its limpid stream. The
temple of the sun at Tadmor, in the, wilder
ness, has fallen; but its fountain sparkles as
freshly in his rays, as when thousands of
worshipriers thronged as lofty colouades. It
may be that London will share the fate of
Babylon, and nothing be left to mark its site
save the mounds of crumbling brick work.
The Thames will continue to How as it does
now. And if any work of art should rise
over the deep ocean of time. we may well
believe that it will be neither a palace nor a
temple, but some-vast aqueduct or reservoir:
-and if any name should stall flash through
the mist of antiquity, it will probably be that
of the.man who in his day sought tßhappi
ness of his fellow men rather than their glory,
and linked his memory to some great work
of national'utility . and benevolence. This is
the true glory watch outlives all others; and
shines with undying lustre from generation
to generation—tniparting to. works some
thing of its owaimmortality, and in some
degree rescuing them from the / ruin' which
overtakes the orilihary inuounieno.s of his
torical tradition or mere magnificeuce.—Ed

The idea is prevalent in someeonununities,
that young men are fit neither for generals
nor statesmen, and that they must lie kept in
the back ground until their physical strength
is impaired by' age, and their intellectual lac
'ulties beeorrie blunted by years. Let us look
to the history of the past, and fiom thelong
list of heroes and statesmen who have nobly
distinguished etemselves, we shall find that,
they were.young men who performed those
acts which have won for them an imPerisha
bleorneed of fame, snd placed their names
high on the paged history. Alekander, the_
conqueror of the whole civilized World, viz:
Greece, Egypt and Asia, died at 33. Bona
parte was crowned Emperor of France when
33 years of 40 1 :7 - Pitt !, the younger brother,
was about '2O Yeari'of age, in Britain's
Pa rlianterit,'hi , halilly . advocated the cause of
the Anierierte.ColnaiSs ; and but 22 when
made Chancellor , - of the Exchequer. Ed
mund Burke, at the age of 25, was the First
Lord of the .Treasttry. Our own,Washiug
ton was but 25 when lie covered the retreat
of the British at Braddock's defeat, and was
apliointed to the commander-in-chief of all
the Virginia forces. Alexander Hamilton, at
20, was a Lieutenant Colonel and Aid to
Washington ;. at 25 a member of Congress,
and at 33 Secretary of the Treasury. Thos.
Jefferson was but 23 when he diafird the
ever-memorableDeelarn4ion of Independence.
At the age of 30 years, Sir Isaac Newton oc
cupied the mechanical chair at. , Cambridge
College, England, having by his scientific
discoveries, rendered his name itnuaortal.
'EARLS
Of the stars perceivable at any one time
by the naked ,eve, the number can scarcely
be said to exceed a few thousands : but in a
powerful telescope they are prodigiously Mal-
There are many clusters of stars
which "contain," says Sir John Herschel,
" at least ten or twenty thousand stars com
pressed and wedged together in an area nut
exceeding the tenth part of that covered by
the moon." in a zone not exceeding two
degrees in breadth, but including a portion
of the Milky Way, the estimated number
which passed_thrOugh the field'of Sir Wil
liam Herchel's telescope in a single hour,
was fifty thousand. ' On account of their
irregular distribution, this estimate affords a
very imperfect datum for inferring the whole
number of the " starry host ;" but it has
'been supposed that no fewer than seventy
five millions may be visible through a good
telescope. Baron Zach; indeed, was of opin
ion that there may be a thousand millions
in the entire heavens. These, however, it
it is obvious, are mere fanciful conjectures':
yet it is probable, that they are rather under
than over estimates. " Every increase,"
says Sir John Hershel, •• in the dimensions
and- power of instruments, (telescopes,)
which successive improvements in optical
science have attained, has brought in view
multitudes of innumerable objects invisible
before ; so that, for any thing experience
has hitherto taught us, the number of the
stars may be really infinite, in the only sense
in which we can assign a meaning to the
Word."
On the banks of the Kelso riverAt Loc
arron, Ross-shire, a maniac resides in a
lonely little hovel, who has been chained
to a pillar fbr many years, and so confined
is he by the necessary - restraint, that
. his
body has actually grown into the form of a
crouzhing postine. There is a striking in
cident• in the life of this maniac. Some
years ago he bad a brother residinc , with
him ander Similar constraint, from the same
painful cause, and theywere then the two
stoutest men in the parish. One night the
brother broke loose, and having seized an
axe, was about to sacrifice his - mother,
when she in terror, loosed the other maniac
to protect her. ' The - two enraged rnadmerr
flew upon each.other with the fury of tigers
and fought .desperately for - several hours: at
fength,the subject of our notice, having torn
tinCyanquished his brother, rebound him,
ittd then quietly returned to his - own chains.

J. T. Buckingham,- in his Remi niscences,
in the course of. publicationitt:the."Bosion

printer to authoress follows:
"Many who condeicend to illuminate the
dark world with the fire of their genius
throug,h the colums of a newspaper,. little
think of the loi of a printer, who almost
suffocated-by the smoke of-a-lamp - sits up
till midnight to correct hiS false grOnmar,
bad orthography, and worse pustulation.—
, I have seen the arguments of lawyPrs, in
high repute as scholars, sent to the printer
in their own hind writing, many- words—
and especially technical and 'foreign! terms
—abbreviated ; words misspelled, and, a few
or no points, and those few, if there were
any, entirely out of place. have seen the

sion of sentences ; sermons Which; ,if pub=
lished with the imperfections of thel man
u.script,t would disgrace the firinter'S; devil,
lif he were-the author. Suppose Piey had
been printed. The printer would have been
treated with scorn and contempt, as an
illiterate blockhead—as a fellow better fitted
to be a wood.sawyer than a printer. Tifobody
would have believed that such' grois and
palpable faults were owing to the ignorance
and-carelessness of the author. And no one
but the compositor, anti after him the proof
reader, is compelled to spend tune in redu

the writer himself would be puzzled to; read!"
T7A Jug, and the , Human Heart!—The

may satisfy yourself by optical proof !that it
is clean , but the jug . has a little hole in the
top, and the interior is all darkness. eta eye
penetrates it—no hand moves over the sur
face. You can clean it only by putting in
water, shaking it up and pouring it Out. If
the water comes out clean, you judge you
.have succeeded in cleaning the jug, and vice

heart. No mortal eve can look into I its re
