WORCESTER'S DICTIONARY
The lonverpeoted quarto edition of Dr. Joseph
B. Worcester's well•known Dictionary of the Beg•
lish Language, has been published by Dialing,
Swan, & Brewer, or Boston. The agents In this
,city, who can show and supply the work, are Pen•
nlngton & Bon and Gaut & Volkmer.
The volume, containieg OS pages of introductory
matter, and 1,788 pages of proper dictionary mat.
ter, is beautifully printed upon good paper; and is
neatly and strongly bound. It contains a number
'of emall wocd.ents illustrative of, natural history,

in American dictionaries, but appear to us to have

Bye., was published by Black% & Son, of Glasgow
and ittlinburgh, 1111854, and is one of the best works
of its class that ever came under our inspection.
As nimbi of its contents were avowedly drawn from
Webster, this Dictionary cannot circulate In the
United . States, where Webster's is copyrighted.
Worcester's Dictionary, in the present edition,
occupies nearly 1,800 quarto pages. Disfirse Dlo
tionmy, publish d 1n1544, oontained nearly 27,000
words more than were to be found in Todd's John.
son. The present edition has 19,000 words over and
above this. It is a very complete collection, and
the reader of old books will here find moat, if not
all, of the antiquated and nearly obsolete words
which occur in the early English authors. Dr.
Worcester gives authorities In most instances. In
each page, which is divided into three columns, the
first and last word is given at the top, which we
find convenient for reference.

ailing as well as instructive, trestle of the princi
plea of pronunciation ; orthography ; English gram.
mar ; origin, formation, and etymology of the
English Language; Archaises, previnciallams, and
Asserioanisme ; history of English Lexicography ;
a catalogue of English dictionaries, glossaries, en
oyoloptedies, do. ; a list of the principal a:dentine
works used in the preparation of this Dictionary,
and abbreviations and signs used in it.
The Appendix treats of the Pronunciation of
Greek and Latin proper names, of Scripture proper
names, of modern geographical names, and of the
names of distinguished men of modern times; also,
abbreviations and signs used in writing and print
ing, and a collection of words, phrases, end quota
lions from the Greek, Latin, French, Italian, and
Spanish languages. There are some other valuable
points, including 5,000 synonyms.
We now come to the three great points era Dic
tionary the derivations, the spelling, and the pro
nouncing of words. As regards the orthoepy,
or primunciation, it seems to us, on comparing this
Dictionary of Worcester with that of Webster, that
the former, more closely following the English au
thorities, is rather more correct than Webster's—
that is, it gives the pronunciation more in accord
ance with the best practice in England, whence
came the language used in this country. Now and
then both deviate from this and fall into error
Thus, the word mercantile, (erroneously pronounced
momenta/ In America,) is always called mama.
ty/s in England, while Worcester, as well aa Web
ster, calls it macaws,. To show bow difficult it is
to eradicate a false pronunciation, let us take the
word tribune, which one half of the population
'pronounce tri•biene, though Webster and Wore.*
ter correctly state that it should be called trio-tun.
So with the word Italian, which vulgar persons

ly undertook to make changes, few but important,
in the orthography of the English language. To
remove the u in honour, and such !reads of Latin
origin, is what English eudom has largely done at
this day, but English readers cannot approve of
Dr. Webster's arbitrary deletion of that vowel in
tho word Saviour, which look, nude, indeed, when
cut down to Savior. So, the words sabre, sceptre,
spectre, theatre, and words with like terminations,
changed by Webster to saber,seeptdr, specter, the
ater, and so on, greatly tend to make American
writing less readable In England than It ought to
be. True it is that IVebster's alterations are not
very numerous, but they occur in words generally
used, and are unjustified by the analogy of the
language.
Orthography fluctuates, it is true—but not exten
sively. Dr. Webster varied it more than custom,
caprice, fashion, and acholarship united had varied
it during the hundred years which have elapsed
sines Dr. Johnson produced his great Dictionary.
Dr. Worcester, for the moat part, has taken the
English language as he found it—as it is written
and spoken, at this day, in England. On this recta
the euperlority of Worcester's Dictionary. Take it
as it here stands, and Dr. Worcester's is the best
English Dictionary yet published in America. It
deserves to bo our standard for orthography.
DRAWING ROOM PORTRAIT GALLERY
We have reoeived from Henry A. Drown et Co.,
Hanover street, Boston, Part S. of tt Portraits and
Memoirs from the Drawing Room Portrait Gal

April, containing thirteen portraits, with biogra

individuals,--engravings upon steel, in a Tory
superior manner. The prime of these portraits is
only 12, which would have been considered cheap,
a short time ago, for even a single ono of them

COOPER'S NOVELS, ILLUSTRATED BY DAR
With singular humility, Cooper made the con-
Coulon, in the preface to the revised edition of his
novels, that the "Water-Witch" wee a comparative
failure in this country. He omitted to add that it
was extremely popular in England, where it was
published in 1830. It Is fanciful, extravagant,
and not a little outri, but the story is told with
great spirit, and the descriptions of life in New
York, in the time of Queen Anne, appear faithful
and are picturesque. This novel forms this thir
teenth of the beautiful edition, now publishing by
W. A. To*mad A Co., New York, with num/rens
Illustrations, on steel and wood, by Eerier If
any one has a doubt of Cooper's ability to rise to
the height of passion, let him read the three eon

Eudora devolos her heart—soul—life to the Skim

11832-'36, and several zoological and physiological
!worke of standard value), lately published a
'volume, "On the Origin of Spades by Means of
Natural Selection, ar the Preservation of Favored
Races in the Struggle of Life," which Messrs.
Appleton bare reprinted. It is one of the boldest
And most plausible books of the age, and goes very
far to establish the theory of descent, with modifi
cations, through natural selection. The vguiability
of species cannot be denied, for we see it under
such a simple process as domestication. Not only
Animals, but plants, are adapted by man to his
own purposes—though he does not and cannot

to give it the distinctive character of a natural
'species. And what Man thus does, Nature has
more largely done. The name species gets altered
and modified by geographical circrunstanoes. Mr.
iDarwin's conviction is " that species have changed,
and are still slowly changing by the preservation
'and accumulation* of successive alight favorable
variations "—ln a word, that one species has given
,birth to other and distinct species; a theory
opposed to the belief of the moat eminent living
;naturalists and geologists. Ile almost (not en

that " probably all the orgitnio beings which have

PULPIT PORTRAITH”No. VII.
Crammond Kennedy, the Boy Preacher
E=l
Crammond Kennedy, the " Boy Preacher," who
is ;now in this city, is a clerical curiosity. The
statements which have appeared in the public prints,
front time to time, respecting this remarkable youth
—his extensive acquaintance with the Scriptures.
his precocious powers of oratory, and his singular
gifts as a preacher of righteousness, were enough to
excite curiosity to see and bear him, a fact to which
his attracting large congregations is doubtless
mainly attributable. But it will be mired, is there
anything in him to make him worth bearing a
second time? In answer to this, I will endeavor
to describe him as he appeared in the pulpit of the
Baptist Church, corner of Broad and Brown streets,
on last Wednesday evening. When I entered the
house it was already well filled, and the wonderful
"boy," unattended, was °coupling one and of the
pulpit sofa with all the ease of a professor.
Expectation had pictured to my mind a
rather old-looking boy, with a pale, nervous
face—to be plain, a sickly-looking specimen of hot
house precocity. The first glimpse of my subject,
however, completely effaced this Imaginary pic
ture, and twtead, I looked upon such a veritable
rosy-faced, beardless boy as any mother's heart
would leap to call her own. Although he is seven
teen and a half years of age, his appearance in the
pulpit does not indicate more than fourteen. When
he rose to read the opening hymn, I have no doubt,
begging the pardon of juveaility in general, that
many a critical eye questioned the propriety of his
long-toiled coat, on the score of age ; and I have
no doubt also that many a mother's heart there—
for the gentler sex were largely in the ascendant
in the congregation—was palpitating with whet
tede for the task allotted to so - mere a child as he
looked to be. And it is true that older hearts than
his might have fluttered before such an auditory,
including, as it did, gray-haired men of every pro
leaden, prominent divines not excepted. ills
reading of the hymn, and • portion of Scrip
ture, however, was well calculated to set our
minds at ease, so far as it concerned the lad's
confidence. The Scripture selected was Paul',
Inimitable exposition of faith, as contained In the
eleventh chapter of Hebrews, and I have never
beard it more intelligently rendered. His prayer
was fervent, earnest, and remarkably deliberate
—rather lees reverential than his calm, devotional
face would seem to indleate—somewhat limping
and disconnected in parts, but, upon the whole,
scriptural In its terms, and every way fit for the
place and presence in which it was delivered. A
slight foreign accent is perceptible in his pronun
ciation, which is, however, rich and strong. Such
words, for example, as prosperity, offended, and
eepeolall►, be pronounces pro-sperity, clouded,
and e-specially.
Bat, as the yreacAer can probably be seen to
most advantage in one of his sermons, the best
part of his portrait may properly be reserved for a
review of bit discourse, before entering upon
which, however, the reader will be interested to
know who Crammond Kennedy is.
The biographical details of a youth of seventeen,
for our present purpose at least, can be soon told.
lie was born in Scotland; came to America in Au
gust, ISSS ; has been of remarkably studious ha
bits from early childhood; was admitted to the
membership of a Baptist church, in the city of New
York, during the revival of le4T-13, with which
church be is still connected, and by which he was
nearly two years ago licensed to preach the Gos
pel. Ills mother Is new residing In Canada; his
father is deceased; he hes a brother and sister
living In Now York city, both of whom were, by
baptism, received into the church of which he la a
member on Sunday last. He has never taken a
degree in any inatitution of learning, and intends
never to do so, but is now, under private tutorage,
in addition to his theological 'bulb", perfecting
hi m s e lf In the knowledge of Creek and Latin. ilia
gifts as a pulpit orator have rendered his frequent
appearance in public so unavoidable that it is said
his present visit to Philadelphia was mainly for the
purpose of obtaining rest. The effect of these
precocious efforts can, of coarse, not be other than
ruinous to his developing con , tito fon. He has al
ready been attacked with throat dimes., and obliged
to travel South, to regain his health. The mental
pressure under which he is placed, for one of his
years, cannot but stunt his physical organisation,
although be seems now to be as singularly blest in

Ills address to desponding Christians was no lass

so, however, when the world sew the patient fol

This week has been a bury week in this town.
Court commencing on Monday brought a great
many people here, but on Teesday the crowd was
doubled. This town, on the usual emit days, pre
sents a lively scene, but at this term the ease of
Commonwealth vs. Henry Pritts mu expected to
come on. This case occurred in apart of the county
south of this place. Pritts is an old man of 64
years. He bad become enamored of the wife of Eli
Weimer; and, to accomplish his hellish design of
murder, came to Walmer's home to learn the coop
ering trade. He first bought poison, and desired
Weimer's wife I. put it in his coffee. This the re
fused. On the 30th of October, 1059, Weiner and
Pritts started on a hunting excursion- hilts re
turned in the evening end expreesedl surprise that
Weimer was not home. Weimar's body was not
found for a week. When found he was lying on
his back, his hat and mittens on, and Pritts' gun
lying on his body. A stick had been cut and tied
or fixed to the trigger as as to lead to the LeFiet
that he had committed suicide. After a trial of
three days, Judge Kimmel presiding, Pritts was
eonvicted of murder in the first degree, and will,
no doubt puffer the penalty of the law. Tke case
was opened by District Attorney Myers, who was
assisted by General W. H. Koontz and W.I. Bear,
N. Prate was ably defended by Hon. John
Edle Poalethwalt, Boss Foulard, and Gaiter. Ge
neral Koontz addressed the jury for upwards of
two hours and a quarter. This trial terminating,
very much of the excitement will be over, the
court, in fact, aiming to-morrow night.
In reference to polities, the National Adminis
tration undertook. through their officers, to get
posseseion of the Democratic meeting and IS seed '
the delegate to the Beading Convention. bet I
am happy to say that they signally kited—W. J.
Bear having been chosen delegate, and resolettom
revering Judge Dot:iglu were adopted. The Ad
ministration undertook a dodge which also failed.
Knowing that James Buchanan's Administration
would *not be endorsed by the Democracy of
Somerset, a resolution was offered recompteading
Judge Jeremiah Black for President. 'The Judge
is a eitizen of this county; but the Democracy
were net to be caught in that trap, and they voted
down that resolution and endorsed Judge Douglas.
On Tuesday evening, the People's or ( Oppaiitioe)
party held their meeting, and elected General
William H. Koontz as delegate to the Harrisburg
Convention, and instructed their delegate to op•
polo the election of delegates to the Chicago Con
vention by said Convention.
After court adjourns the town will simmer dow - a
to its usual quiet. Business does not present a
very 'lettering prospect for our merchutta last ;
the frost, for the last two years, not only haring
injured the grain, but very nearly destroyed the
grass, which has proven a very serious toss to the
country. The farmers are in hopes that the snow .
will lie until the first of March, and that the die•
asters of the last two years will go by.
