I will teil thee. Nature has. «o formed us, that
some have the ‘musical ear ’andothers not Now
this ‘musical ear has nothing to do with real char*
acter, moral or intellectual, but yet the persona
who have not the ‘musical ear, ought never, to
tinginmtttiag. Ifthey do, they will be sure to
annoy others, and make themselves ndiratous.—
Deacon Goodman had not the‘musical ear. Wheth
er it were the ‘Messiah,’ 1 or .the ‘Creation or Jim
• Crew and Zip Coon, it was all the same to him,
so for as music was concerned; rt was jun so much
smeing. Whether the artists were Sivon, o? Ole
Bali, or poor John Casco, it was just so much
AbOiag. He had not ihe'mnsical ear* and still less
if possible, the musical voice*, .but yet he vxmld
sihgin meeting. And the gentle and respectful
remonstrances of the choirileader were met with
the unvaried reply, Singing is.prayer; youmightaa
well askme not to pray; Iskaß stngtn ousting.
It is now proper biographer to hint at j
another trait in the goodJieacon’s character. He j
was rather‘set in his way? or in other words, he I
was dreadfully obstinate in what die thought a
good cause; and he was generally correct in ap*
predating the merits of the cause.

Iman'a tinging was u very serious gre vance to the
choir, and no small annoyance lo tto congregation.
Yet in consideration of his great merits he was
indulged;' and' his regular Sunday performances,
d» w . forth -the remark* that if music murder
was a sin. Deacon Goodman would have much to
answer for. •• But there fo a point beyond which
forbearance is no longer a virtue. Great pains
dsv. and the very gem of the piece was a solo,
which had been assigned to the sweetest voice,
and the prettiest little girl in the nflage. AU who
attended the rehearsals were perfectly delighted
with the solo as song by little Mary. Itwasverv
difficult. It was marked from begmlng ;toend,

shehailconquered it all. Three oißoureccom

table old church member. 1 When Iteacon Good
maa heard that remark, bo held up his hands and
exclaimed 1 hover? t . ..
■Now the deacon dearly loved good preaching,
and the meeting house was to him a ‘house offcast*
to*’ But his religion was of a very practical kind,
and although he thought but precious little of his
eood works,he took canto do a good many of
them, and was for from behoving with Amsdorfthat
‘*ood works are an impediment to salvation, so, j
iridhe to Mrs. Goodman, ‘do you go to the house
of feasting, and get. all tho good you can, and I wiU
go to the house of dooming, end do all lean. And
away he went to see, and if possible, to relieve the
Universalist minister.
■ in the mean time the congregation assemble a,
and the worship proceeded In the usual way. At
length came tho anthem. It even went beyond,

the solo. It was no rretfor poor ‘UttleMary, j*?®*
the most anxious minute she had ever passed- ohe
uq. blushing and trembling. Her agitation

bathos of the music. It was beautifol
Deacon Goodman always made n a role,
when any accident had detained him until after
worship had commenced to come 10 very softly.—
How different from the fashionable flourish.—
All were intent on the solo. None beard, and but
few saw Deacon Goodman enter bis pew, and take
up the sheet on ' which the words of the* anthem

The poor, pale, grateful woman smiled through,
her tears. • She could not help it She had been a
singer in her better days; she bod also heard the
Deacon sing.
I do not record these incidents merely because
they are honorable to Deacon Goodman, but be«
cause they are particularly connected .with my
story. In this errand of mercy the good Deacon
caught a very serious cold: it affected hit throat
and hit nose and even his longs; and gave to hit
voice a tone not unlike that of the lowest note of a
cracked bass viol alternating with the shriek ofa
clarionet powerfully but unakillfully Mown. On
Saturday evening be soaked bis feet in hot water;
drank copiously qf hot halm tea; went to bed and
said he felt comfortable. ‘Now Deacon,' said Mrs.
Goodman, ‘you are dreadful hoarse;— you wont
sing, to morrow, will you?* ‘Singing is praying—
and——he dropped asleep. And aure enough he
rftd-'sidg to morrow,’ and ft surpassed an that had
gone before. ‘This is the last of it* said the choir
leader,‘l have done.* In Jh*. afternoon , the choir
was vacant, some of the singers absent, *nd others
scattered about in the pews. .
The minister read three verses of a psalm; and
then observed, ‘the choiir being absent, ringing
must necessarily be ommitted.' But Deacon.
Goodman saw no such necessity. He arose, ana
sung the three verses himself! He stopped sa
times to sneeze; and blew his nose between the
verses by way :Of symphony! The neat day he
1 was rick in beg? A pariah meeting was hastily
called, and a resolution unanimously passed, uw
I ‘Whereas the solemnity and decorum of public
worship depeSdmucb on the cbaTOcterofthe music;
resolved, ‘that hereafter, no person shall n»g *n
wring, in this parish, without the approbation of
the choir P Rather a stringent measure; box what
could they do? The minister called on Deacon Good
man, and handed him the resolution. He read it
over three times. He then calmly folded up the
oaper.and handed it back to the minister. ‘ltua
is a tree country yet I hope. l*ha& ting tnmtd*

folly‘set in his way.’
•Then Deacon,’ said the minister, T have a most

I that your connection with the society most cease.
I The Deacon here started from his seat. Hadtbefjjtil

nearly cured;and about on hour after the interview ,
I he was seen to mount old Mag, heading due North.
Four miles in that direction lived the worthy mio
-1 icier of another parish. The deacon found bun tn
! his study, where also was his daughter coding
musics. She was a proficient in the art, Vj
the organ in her father’s church. She had heard
of the deacon's musical troubles, sod had also
heard him sing. ‘Sir,’ said be to the minister, there
has been a liule difficulty in our parish, which
makes me feel it my duty to withdraw, and l have
come to ask the privilege of uniting with yours
(At that moment the young lady vanished from the

the minister, ‘end hope it will bo amicably settled.

most happy to receive yon; and when it shall please

On motion—
Rexloed, Thai the address delivered by the

Resolved, That this meeting adjourn, to meet at
West Deer Township, on Saturday, the 17th insi,
at 10 o’clock, A. M.
JOHN BOYLE, President
J. F. Garrard, Secretary pro tem.
Fsllow CinZKKS—The object of the present
meeting is one that involves the interest of the CD'
tire community. We are placed in a situation of
accountability both to the Creator of the universe,
and our fellow men. It has pleased Providence
'to bless os with a free country, and we might say,
I too, a free soil; and as fur as my knowledge ex*
| tends, asoil as capable of improvement as almofl
any in the world: yet, experience tells us that in*
stead cf improving, we are rather redocing Its qua
lities, and in dolug so are we either benefiting
ourselves or those around us?—or are we maxing
the use oi it that we would like to see held up to ,
alter generations, and say we are the men U»ei
have used it so? I think there is scarcely a farm
within the knowledge of any present that might
not be said to be at least fifty per cent less in qua*
lity than when first cleared; and has it been the
means of enriching its owner? This question is
easily answered, for in almost every instance where
a farm becomes poor, the owner is invariably the
same. There is scarcely any portion of our land,
when first cleared and rightly cultivated, but is
capable of growing 25 bushels of wheat to the
acre: but what is tbe growth of any of our long
i cleared forms? I think from 12 to 15 bushels, on |
I an average, in a great many cases, wonld.be some
thing like the present yield. And* is this to be
chargeable'to the soil? I think not- It is entirely
Chargeable to ourselves. We are taking from the
eartbf»«oA never putting any thing to tl, while a
little efiergy ahd skill would cause it to yield as
much as ever. The satisfaction would amply re*
pay for the labor/; • ' . . ,
You will probably say, how are we to gel about
tfiia? I answer, by forming societies for the difim»
sion of knowledge, and l am 1 persuaded that the
meo who first thoughtof this, deserve our warm*
est gratitude, and will be applauded by after gene*
rations, for thus endeavoring to arouse a spoil of
improvement, and to impart knowledge to those
; around them,—for it is acknowledged by all, that
i there is not a country where societies of this kind
1 have been established, but it bos been a means of
, striding in the education of youths, aa wofl as ias
. Bisling in the improvement of Agriculture in all tU
branches. . , ,
We have beard it remarked that the former* in |
this part of tbe country, are for behind those East:
and West of us. Wo are not only behind our
neighboring fanners, bat we ore behind every otb»
er of men who earn their living by industry
There is scarcely any of the Mechanics but have
i their societies, tor giving and receiving instruction,
j end they are greatly benefiued by them, and is
there any reason for the former to shut his eyes
and ears to his own interests.
I think not; well then, let us form Societies in
eyery neighborhood; -let us select men of ex*
pntence to instruct us ; let ns consult with each
other; and ifany have gained knowledge on soy
subject, let him willingly impart to tbe rest This,
no doubt, will be a means of giving the rtsing
generation a taste for what ought to bo the most
noble employment that *:ver was conducted by
man on this earth; and not only », so doing,
we would scatter the element* .of agricultural
knowledge over the land, and bring them within
the reach of every’ citizen of the humblest capacity;
besides, bv a liberal and enlightened course, should
not only augment tbe productive agricultural
anergic* of our own country, but we should also |
in p«*rt repay the duly we owe to the world and
Our fellow man.
And it* 1 told you before, I am not able to say
anything on tbe subject, worth listening to, you
will be bind enough to make allowance tor want
of ability, as wbru 1 .wrote these few remarks, I
did not wish them ever tube read in the hearing
of any audience, but'lqw'others should not be
Willing to say any thing on the matter, t’ < ttt|Nlj
read them, in hopes that some others of more ex*
perience and ability will come forward and give
the-nakpet the justice it justly ncrjjpL.
FROM NEW TOflK.
Correspondence of the Pittsburgh Gazette.
New Yocx, Feb. 10,1649.
A litllc Ib**t new# bus been received from San
Francisco, via Now Orleans, the City of Mexico,
Mpt* lll *"- The advices are down lo lhe 6ft
of November, ami were received by Messrs. Ofy*
phanl dc Son. I have been allowed to read the
latter, and send yon lhe following abstract The
ship Huntress, haa been discharged at a heavy
, cost. Laborers are as scarce as ever, and from
five to seven dollars a day is thp. general range,
but in some oases, as high as a doUarao bout No
sailors are u> be bad, and the only men who hove
offered to return, asked nt the rate of $l6O per
month. The reports from the gold region are as
flattering as ever; but the ra:n in the lower and
fta snow in lhe upper country, has brought dig*
ging to a stand. The miners are coming in to the
exhausted from bard work autl poor living,,
and a great many case* of sickness. The poof
miners gather their fortunes in the shape of pounds
of gold dost, place it under their beads wrapped in
rags, and then die from the want of attendance
leaving their gold to slrangrr*.
There is a good deal ot fluttering among the
banks,’under the joint operation of the sub-treasury
and the spring importations. Tbe imports of the
post week have been *3,376,000, requiring specie to
the amount of SSOO.OOO; of this amount not $300,000
has been paid oat, and the banks are weaker to
coiu than this day week, by half a million of dollars.
At tbe same time, merchants who receive their
goods torn to the banks for means, and either
weaken them by draining their deposits or obtain
ing loans. Tbe elTeet upon the banka is the aaroe.
While the sub-lreasnry drains them of half a million
of ooin, the commercial claims demand three and
a half million of currency, thus extending the banks
four million# in a week. The coin now in the
bank# i»*4,250,000, and in the sab*ireasary, nearly
IT not quite $3,000,000. But no serious trouble can
occur in our money market, fur the exchangee
without exception are in our favor from all part# of
the world, with a steady accession to our specie
from the counfry, and no foreign demand. Tbe
present moftth i* fto heaviest in imports fur the
spring, and we shall soon be in easy sailing again-
There is quite a delegation from the Iron City
here just now, who are of no small account to tbo
city of smoke and iron. Among them is one whose
name and reputation are pnblic properly: Lent. T.
M. the Navy. Some of the other* here
have some designs on the puree# of the shopping
parties in Market street, and they may look to see
the ‘Bee Hive’ fuller than ever ai attraction*
The approach of the steamer from England, oow
fully duo, has tbo effect of depressing the market
for Cotton, Flour, and Grain. 14 Cotton there has
been a fall of 1 cent, wiib a ifioderato busine#*
Common Western Flour elands at $6 60, and
straight brands, $3 C2J. Rye Flour has gone up
to $3 374 &63 44. la Wheat there are trifling
sales, bat the view# of holders dro above the mar*
ket Corn #e!ls at 59 for yellovy, and 54 for white.
Provisions are very dull, and Cheaper. Sales of
Ohio Pmno Pork *ll 50 O*U <m, MeM
$l3 50, and some Mess *lO 20.- Beef is cheaper.

nn. FORWARD.
Ma. Whits:— l see it mentioned m one of your
papers, that the Hon. George Dnraie has been elec
ted Speaker of the Senate, by the unanimous vote
of that body,—this is a circumstan.-a of which the
citixens of Allegheny may feelsomq pride, and it
will be recollected that daring ’the many sessions
Gen. Wro. Marks represented; this county in the
Seoate, be was frequently ele«£ed presiding officer
without opposition. Bat the prominent men
Allegheny county has produced, there is none for
whom we ought to feel such S weight of oblige*
tion as the Hon. Walter Formed. At the lime he
was called to preside over thejU. S. Treasury the
country exhibited n state of k Hairs bordering on
Bankruptcy—the Manufactories ceasing their ope*
rations—the Commercial apd dgricoltural interests
of the country at a stand—under such circutnsfan*
ces did Mr. Forward frame and.exhibit to Con
gress the Tariff of 1&12, whidj by the Legislature
of the natioo was passed imop Ltw, bavmga ten
dency to restore, invigorate odd diffuse life into all
the interests of the country, [I therefore believe
the people of Pennsylvania, mire particularly those
of Allegheny county, would bp discharging a debt
of gratitude, by recommending Mr. Forward for a
