Greek scholar, Dr. Meet)!lavoity had few
superiors; and as a teacher of the classics,
the common verdict of those who knew him
best, was, that ho was eminently judicious
and successful. It was the knowledge of
this fact, and of his general scholarship,
and high Intellectual and moral endow

Washiekton College.
After the resignation of Dr. Wylie, and
daring the ausponsion of the operations of
that institution, the Trustees wore anxious

I siva and well digested outline, which, it is
Ito be regretted ho did not fill up, and thus
have furnished our colleges with a conve
nient and reliable text-book on that sub
ject. His other publications consist of
some half dozen sermons, and a few, of his
„Dacsaalaureate Addresses. These 'are all
written with his accustomed ability, and
were well adapted to the occasion and cir
cumstances, which severally called them
forth. Since his decease, it has been an
nounced that a couple of tracts from his
;pen, havo•been issued from the press—one,
on the Doctrine of the Trinity, and the
other on the Salvation of Infants. The
subjects are important, and their mode of
treatment will, doubtless, sustain the well
earned reputation of their author.
In his domestic relations, Dr.- McCoy-
AUGIIY was peculiarly 'ulessed. In the',
spring of the year 1802, ho was married to
Miss Mary Mahon, daughter of David Ma-
hon,..Biti., of Shippensburg, Pa.,
a lady
whose spirit was in harmony with his own,
and with whom ho lived most happily
for nearly fifty years. Her bereavement
can only be mitigated by divine grace, and
by the animating hope of, ere long, joining
him again in their "Father's house," in
heaven. Although without any children
of his own, Dr. MeComsvony's house was
the constant home of some cherished young
friend, towards whom he ever exorcised a
father's love and care, although without a
father's - baute. Among - his collateral des
cendants and those of his wife, a number of
names are registered as ministers of the
gospel, whose happiness it is to have the
light of his bright example shining before
them, to animate and cheer them in their
work. •
On Sabbath, the 11th of "January, he!
preached his last sermon, iu the church of
Washington; from l'roverbs 1 : •.).•2. liii is
reported to have been unusually animated ,
and impressive, and ail agreed in pronoun. l
cing the discourse cipe of the most solemn ;
and poWerful they glad ever heard. On
the next Sabbath he was confined to bed by
a severe cold, but which, at first, created no i
alarm. After some days, however, his
strength rapidly failed him, and he gradual
ly sunk, until, at length, while his friends
around his bed were engaged in prayer that
he ihight have a safe and easy departure,
"the silver cord was loosed," and his ran
i sowed spirit was "present with the Lord."
His extreme weakness and difficulty of
breathing, during his illness, prevented him
from couversiug niueh ; but, in the lan
guage of one who was present ‘ "the sereni
ty of his countenanoi, and the few expres
sions which fell from his lips, betokened the
heavenly sunshine of the soul within."—
ills days were numbered, his work was
done, and he has gone—as we confidently
dust—to the enjoyment of that. "Rest

GEN. ScOTT AND THE CONPROMISE.—
The General's Position Defined.-- A
Washington; correspondent of the Nash
ville Banner rebently had an interview
with Gen. Scott, who, it is alledged, is in
diinant at the charge made in some of the
newspapers that his position in regard to
the compromise measures, is ambiguous.
According to'this writer, Gen. Scott, in his
conversation with him, said :
"How can any one doubt my past or
present support of the compromise meas
nres Did I not at the first meeting of
the friends of the Union, held in Castle
Green, New York, publicly proclaim
my approval of them—at a period, too,
when but a few in that city advocated the
priipriety of their4idoptirin ?, And imme
diately after my perusal of Mr. Clay's
first great speech in their defendence,
made in the Senate of the United States,
did I not sit down at my residence in the
city of New. York, and write to him in
substance akfollows—
'I have, in my day and generation, fought
battles which gained for 0111 common coun
try some little renown antrglory; These,
however, might have' yen won by other
men, or if lost, would love been repaired
by the indomitable chi airy of our brave
soldiery. But the great battle which you
are fighting, involves all that-is glorious
or immortal orthe' present and the past,
all that is dear and hopeful of the future.
It is the battle of the preservation of the
Union and the constitution, the perpetuity
of our tepublirian institution. I trust in
God that you may be succeestul in your
patriotic undertaking. For I most hearti
ly approve of all the measures of your bill,
and will give to them a cordial and ener
getic support.' "
He also addressed a similar letter, it is
said, to Mr. Webster, after reading his
great speech. According to the writer,
Gen. Scott also remarked to him :
"Did I not, during their discussion in
Congress, personally exert my influence
for their paisage through both Houses ?
Besides, there is extant the most **nice
tible proof that had it not been for my
humble aid and influence, the Compromise
measures could not, by a vote of from fire
to ten, have passed' the House of Reps&
senuttives."

I spent six weeks in the country,-chiefly at

and churches, cheap living, provisions of
every kind abundant, agriculture and the
mechanic arts, and, in short, all branches
of business prosperous, and the people con
tented and happy. The soil is exceeding

of all the productions of our Southern

genous growth, and the cliinate continues to
improve as the cultivation of the country
extends. He says he expects to take out

(ruin a Sau Diego paper that a deputation
Of .Mormons have visited that City,.and
that a Mormon settlement in the Valley of
the Gila is to he established. Great uc
tivity prevails in the preparations for the
new colony, and those qualities of energy,
industry, and concentrated effort which
have characterized the Mormons from
tlie first are manifested very conspicuously
on the Gila. The object of the Mormon
leaders is to open a cominunieation with
the Pacific, with a view to the establish
ment of a port at or near San Diego.—

far ahead, and imheate a full confidence
on their part in the permaltency of their
organization and its increasing power.—
The position which they ore likely to hold

IVORD FOR OURSELVES.
11, - "`We have a word or two to say of
some importance to ourselves and patrous,,i
for whieh we should like to get the ear of
every subscriber. It is lima going on sevett,
years since the "Star" passed into the
hands of the Senior editor. During that
period our patrons have not been troubled
with any peculiarly pressing duns by way
of settlement of accounts. There has been
no general settlement in this period. lint
long unsettled ac aunts sometimes give
rise to unpleasant difficulties, and it is our
desire now to settle up our Books for the
past, and start fresh. To accomplish this,
we shall be under the necessity of making
out Bills on all unsettled diceounts,
oul regard to persons. And as we wish,
as far as possible, to avoid the':necessityand
expense of a Collector, we hope that our
friends will call at °thee, within a reas- ;
onable time, and settle. There are some
who have been taking the Star for better
than six years, others a less time, who have !
never paid at all: There are others who
are indebted to us in smaller amounts. 1
We trust that all will be prepared at least
to do something for us. We have a num
her of heavy etigapunents to meet this
Spring, and a few dollars from each of our I

Copper Mining.
eira - MoFt of our readers have bean ap
prised of the Latina several Mining Cone-i
panics have been operating for some time
at various points in our county in search
of Copper, but few, wo presunie, are aware
of the extent or success of these operations.
Indeed, we ourselves were not a little sur
prised, on a recent visit to the "Baena
Vista Mine," located some six or seven
miles north east of this place and work
ed by the ''Now Eughtiol Exploring and
Mining Company,"--to fityl that the work
WILI so far advanced and that the results
had been 80 favorable. So quietly and
noislessly have this Company been op ‘ra•
ting that but little attention has been di
rected to it by our citizens. On the viii t
we speak of, by the kind attention of the
gentlemanly superintendent having charge
of the mine, we were enabled to make a
thorough exploration of the works so far
as they have advanced. A large quantity
of Copper ore has already been mined and
sent to market. The vein upon which the
Company have worked is a rich one
and averages from three to fifteen inches—
the product thus far paying handsomely on
the labor and capital invested. A now
Shaft is now opening a short distance from
the old one, where a vein has been struck
of about four feel Maness
This is supposed to be the main body
into which the vein now being worked and
others centre. The Company are :men--
dingly making preparations to make this
the main working shaft, and will hereafter
prosecute their operations with all the ap
pliances usual in successful mining opera
tions. The Company is n responsible one,
with abundant capital at its
that we may anticipate results of some im
portance to our community from the ope
rations.

LETTER FROM GEN. SCOTT.—In
reply to an invitation to attend the cele
bration of St. Patrick's Day yesterday, by
the "Seward Association" of New York
city, a body composed of Irish eitizens,
Gen. Scott sent the following letter :
WASHINGTON, Friday, March 12, 1852
Gentlemen : It was only yesterday that
the pressure ul public business obliged me
to decline the honor of meeting a number
of Irish friends at the approaching celebra
tiontif St. Patrick's Day in Philadelphia.
I beg you will except what I said to them
in reply.
You do me but justice in supposing that
I take a lively interest in Ireland and her
sons. Perhaps no man—certnidly no A
merican—owes so much to the favor and
blood of Irishmen as myself; many of
them marched and fought under my com
mand in the war of P4l2—'lB and many
more—thousandsein the recent war with
Mexiconot one of whomwas ever known
to turn his back upon en enemy or a friend.

with the warmest regards,
Yours. most truly,

York Female Seminary.
ter•During a recent trip to York we
availed otthelves of an oppbrtnnity to iisit
the Female Seminary located at thatplace,
under charge of Prof. lh:y. This institu
tion has been in existence for a cumber of
yearn, and is now, through the untiring,
ergy of its talented principal . , established
upon a permanent basis. A new and ele
gant building has been erected in the vicin
ity of the town, to which the Institution
has recently been transferred. It is an el-
egant structure, presenting an imposing ap
pearance, healthfully and b e autifully loca
ted, and admirably adapted, in all its ar
rangements, to the purposes for %%11111 it
has been built. We were permitted to he
present in the recitation room for an hour
or two, and were much pleased with all that
we there saw and heard. Mr. llys's sys
tem of teaching is a peculiar one. Text
books are discarded from the recitations,
and the "bluk hoard," wherever prartiea
blo, is substituted—a feature which we be
lieve to be possessed of many advantages.
We were particularly pleased with the
grammar recitation. Prof. IlEv's method
of imparting instruction in this departm-ut
is a novel one, and, we believe, peculiar to
himself—differing at least from :my sys
tem with which we are conversant, and
superior to ill. Simplified so as to be read
ily votnpreltemb•d by the youngest of the
scholars, it yet furnishes an excellent dis
cipline, inasmuch as it prepares the mind to
arrive ;it conclusions, not entirely by the
memorizing of mere arbitrary rules, as is
characteristic of the old systems, but by a
process of reasoning, calculated to•make
the impression lasting and permanent.—

The above proposition will command
general attention, and it is to be hoped
that something will grow out of it. The
public works of the State have long been
a kind of eonnuou spoils on which the horde
of cormorants along the various lines have
battened and grown fat, at the expense of
the Commonwealth. The State has never
realized much more than half of what is
here offered from the works under patli
management. It will be noticed that among
the gentlemen who make the offer are set•er
al recent Canal Commissioners and other ex_
officers of the State Works. The question
naturally suggests itself—how comes it
that Messrs. Foster, Painter, Roumfort, &e.
could not make the public improvements
while under their management, yield over
half a million dollars clear profit, while
they now guarantee a million? Is not the
conviction that the State has been greed y
swindled heretofore, necessaty and irresis
tible ?

Melancholy Accident
siiir We stop the press to announce a
most sad and melancholy accident, which
•Imrpßtteflii icw moments ago, in the pul
ling down of the Catholic Church, in this
place, at which the Contractors for ttie new
building were engaged. Mr. Ileiiry Hol
linger, a most estimable young man, in the
-employ of the Messrs. Chritzturiu, and
Charles thiekmaster, (a colored man) were
instantly killed by the filling of one of the
walls. They were engaged at the time in
undermining the well, when it premature
ly gave way, completely enveloping and
crushing them so as to cause instantaneous
sheath. Mr. Hollinger is the same individ
ual who, a few years ago, was severely in
jured by the accidental discharge of :t gun.
We need hardly say that this sad affair has
produced a profound sensation in our Com
munity, among whom the deceased had
many friends who will deplore his loss.
