;R•TIC REvtaw.—The March number Magazine has been received, and ahho' 'hat tardy in per Forming the duty, owing .of other Labors, we take pleat/ere in calling padic attention Wits contents. The engraving for this number is a portrait of tie Hai. C. 3. Isolitsott., engraved from a Daguerreo type Miniature, by Anthony Edwards, 4. Co., of New York. It is a very good likeness of Mr. INGER 'sou., as all will agree who have bad the pleasure of seeing that distinguished democrat; who, we hope, is soon destined to receive higher honors. We are sorry, after the general praise we have so heartily bestowed on the Review, thnt we should be obliged to deal out special censure so soon. But the first article in the number, "The Late Acting President," is not to our taste. Like every thing that appears aseditorial in the Review, it is handsomely wt iuen, but it is sadly out of place in a work which is noted for the dignified and liberal manner in which it expresses its opinions.— That Mr. TTLICH is wenk in many things we will not deny—that be has been flattered and fooled by a set of unprioeiph d men. who only sought to are him for their own pirmoses, is perhaps now known to himself —bet that he is absolutely wicked,—that he should be treated with scorn and contumely. and branded u a "traitor," we think is undeserved and cruel treatment However much he may have done that is reprehensible, he vetoed the Bank Bill. and he took ground against Clay—aad for these great services, he deserves, at least, immunity from abuse b) democrats. We cannot see how the Review can consistently praise CAtHocts and censure Trtra, when the greatest difference between them is that CALHOUN fame bark to the Democratic party a few years before T tut. We think there are many sounder and more consistent men in the Demo cratic party than either of them. The second article is "The Song of the Bell," trans lated from the Get man of Schiller. It is accounted a very fine production by the admirers of that poet. "The Cabman's Story," by the French of Alexan. der Dumas. we have transferred to our columns. The article entitled "Out Times" is a pithy and forcible one, and gives, in a brief space, much matter fur thought. We make an extract: "Our age is pecoliary distinguislied by its seccessfill culture ef physical science and its extraordinary tri umphs in mechanism. This feature of the age is ma ter or debate between two antagonist dames, the one 'hailing it as rich in present benefits and bright hopes for thWfuture, while the other taxes the age with being on this very account, mnteri ii, mechanical, anspiritta. al, empty of religion. How stands the truth' "Nobody prelen.is that the world has reached per fection. Nobody denies that evil, deficiency and wrong, ' vet preveil to a deplorable extent. But how does the present compare with foregone conditions of our race. and i s the race advancing or retrograding in consequence of the impnlaes above mentioned as making our times? This is the teal point at issue. "One thing must on all hands he admitted. that the phenomena presented by our times are fitted to than attention irresistibly, and to charge all mats-latish , ex isting cnneeptions of what man is capable of achiev ing. Indeed it would almnst seem as though he were now hut jest entering on that dominion over 'he earth, which was assigned him at the beginning. No longer. as once, does he stand trembling amid the forces of nature, hut erect and fearless he front. them and makes of them companions or servants. The wide air and deep 'lnter.. the tall mountains, the out-stretched plains and the earth's teen caverns. are become a pat - eel of his domain and yield freely of their treasures to his researches and toils. The terrible ocean veils to him, and stooping its broad back to his burdens• con veys them attbmisatively "whithersoever the governor listeth." Ile has almost annihilated space and time. He yokes to his car fire and water. those unappeasen tile foes, and flying from place to place with the speed of thought, carries with him, in one mass, commix-li lies for supplying a province. He constrains a aim -Ohs cnrtexture of wood anti iron to do the tasks of - a hundred men. The Arend lightning lie makes his Playfellow, and bids it, harming none, externs, the track he indicates. Threngh his skill the old pro phetic word is verified, and "every valley is exalted and every hill is brought low; the parched ground he comes a pool and the thirsty lend spring, of water; the wilderness and the solitary place is glad, anti the aeset“ejoices and blossoms as the rose." No longer do "Mountains interposed make enemies of nations." They do not so much as hinder neighbourly reciprn - cation. By mechanical appliance the most far divided regions can, in briefest time, interchange the products of their soil and workshops; and better yet. the light flashing from a single mind may circle the earth with almost the speed of the sunbeam, its material emblem . The world is fast growing to a single vast public. cans-' cions of common thoughts and moved by common im pulses. "Here, undeniably. is a very imposing spectacle.and mighty indeed are the forces creating it. But, is our race, after all, really the better for the action of these forces, and do they promise auspiciously for the fu ture? "Let us see, first, how the ease steeds with that nu memos body, who ent and always have "eaten their Mead in the sweat of their brow." • Their state, it must be owned, is very far below what philanthropy (could wish. But it will not be cluestioned that these latter days have done much for its melioration.

And this is, so fnr, well—not only well in itself, but es alinsis of something better. It is all in vain that philosophy, poetry, or religion even appeals •to men, who are hungry, naked, shelterless, diseased, or taxed by everlasting drudgery for meeting these -primary needs. The suasory tones of the one are ut terly drowned in the hoarse clamors of the other." "Romance and Reality," is en admirably written and effective satire upon certain characters drawn for our faahionable novels. "Recollections of 50 years," is a touching story, the scene of which is laid in Ireland in '9B. lAT There is a Biographical Sketch by Mrs Diet. and an article entitled the "Literature of Fiction," from the pen of a gentlemen alike distinguished in politics anti war—Major DAV EZA c. There is also a ilketch of "the Presidents of Texas." We copy a brief notice of the present incumbent, as he may, in consequence of recent events, become an important .chnracter: '•Dr At SON JONES was elected after a sharp con test, and promises to imitate closely the moderate non committali:m of hie predecessor. He was Secretary of State under Houston, and has imbibed many of his antipathies. He is a plain, practical New Englander, ready for a speculation, either in his public or pri vate capacity, sothat it be safe and decorous; but he will run no disagreeable risk. He will walk steadily by precedent, and will take care nut to venture beyond his depth fur friend or foe. He will to all decent leogths to oblige Ex-President Houston, or stretch a point even, in the wa) of a veto, for example, to gra tify ajoint dislike; but he will make no personal sacri fices. He is pledged to the financial, and is at heart in favor of the anti-annexation policy of Hamden; but he west also pledged to reinstate the navy, promote ed ucation, and restore the erratic government to its con stitutional home. The last pledge be has &ready vi olated, and be seems to evade the one Loathing the Davy. i•What the Texians particularly desired or expected of their fourth President, is uncertain, but what they will have. is pretty distinctly showed forth.

MARCY, the new Secretary of War. They then proceeded to the residence of the Hon IV. WiLatiss, late Secretary, to take a farewell of their lt.te chief, whose urbane deportment had en deared him to all. The mention of Mr Wit.xls,s, reminds us that we have not as yet noticed the fact, that he was, on the 3d inst., nominated by President TYLER to the place on the Supreme Bench, vacated by the death of Judge Bs LDW 'N. The nomination was not acted on, owing to the late hour at which it was received. JAMES Hon 1?4, Esq., a distinguished lawyer of Washington city, has seen tendered the office of Solicitor of the Treasury, in place of Mr Penrose. THE MilLS.—We agree with ourasontemporaries of the Chronicle and (=Emu° that the failure of the Southern and Western Mails, to arrive at any thing like cc:or-act time, is a great annoyance to the editors of morning papers, and we are ready to unite in any representation to the l'ost Master General which may be thought advisable. Whether the fai!ure of the mail coach, to arrive at something Like the proper hour,is because there are too many Oysters or too much mud to get through, we have no infiirmat ion. It has been suggested that if the delinquent contractors' p ickets were lightened by a few severe fines, they would take measures to lighten their atages so that they would get along better. Ma. Due a.—The Providence Gazette says that Mr. Dorm's health is very poor, and failing fast. It is pretty generally acknowledged, that. if not liberated, he will die before the year is nut. The federalists ad mit this, and smile a fiendish grin when they admit it. TKNNEMIF.E.—The nomination, by the Democrats. of AARON V. BROWN. fur Governor, was unanimous. The Convention adopted the two-third rule, and F. I'. Stanton, of Memphis, and Mr Brown were nominated. Soon after the voting began, Mr. S. was u ithdravvn„ and the nomination of Mr. B. wus made without a dissenting voice. This augurs well. The Union says the Democrat...of Tennessee consider themselves under the strongest obligations to show their gratitude fur the signal honor conferred on President POLK. by a splendid triumph in August next. The consideration that. upon Tennessee may depend the political corn pleetion of the U. S. Senate, will urge diem to do their whole duty in this contest. RESIGNATION of M. BUCHAN•N.— The follow ing letter from Ma. BeCIVANAN, resigning his seat in the Senate, was sent to botkHouses on the sth inst. It evinces the warmest feelings of gratitude to the peo pie of Pennsylvania, who have sustained him so well; that he has deserved their confidence and kindness to the fullest extent, is a sentiment that will be responded to by a large majority of his constituonts. In his new sphere of action, his prurience, foresight and sagacity will gain for him new triumphs, and extent his fame in a new field: NVAsria NOION. sth March, 1845 My Dear Site Havingaccepted the office of Secreta iv of State, to which I have been called by President Pulk, I now respectfully tender to plumy resignation as one of the Senators of Pennsylvania, in the Senate of the United States, and request that you may com municate the same to the Legislature. In thus severing the bonds which have so long bound me to the Legislature and people of Pennsylva nia, I cannot, in view of all their past kindness, re press the rising emotions of my heart. My gratitude shall terminate only with my existence., and my anxi ous desire to retain their approbation shall animate my future exertions to deserve it on the new theatre of ty to which I have been called. Imploring the bles sings of Heaven noon ray effort•, I humbly trust that during the remainder of my public life, I shall not dis grace the glorious old Commonwealth which has given me bit th, and has ever treated me with parental kind ness.

AItsSING P•CKETll.—There is scarcely the shadow of a Tope lingering in any breast, that the long missing packets will ever return. They doubtless went down in the dteadful gale of December 11th.— Every navigator wbo has spoken of it, describes It as horrific in the esti eme. The last account is fromtbe Francis Lord, Captain Gladdin, which miraculously escaped destruction. The narrator, prior to his de scription of the perils and suffering of the voyage, says the gale was most terrific, such as he never be fore experienced, although a wayfarer of the deep for many years. The storm king on that dreadful day hurled to destruction many a good tall ship, and gorged kiiiimself with human life.

On Wednes day, another young man agreed to sit up with the body that night. When night came, he did not come. The family waited until till 12 o'clock, and he was not there yet.. He did not come at all.— The next morning it was revealed, that the absent young man was the one that was drowned on the night of the the fire !—The dead and the watchet had alike gone to their accounts! CITY or N ew Yoaa.—The Herald says almost ev ery day two or three omniuses break down in Broad way New York, in consequence of the shockingly di lapidated state of the pavement, and it is so common to see poor tones completely worn out expiring on the vreet, that the occurrence baldly attracts the no. tice of the passers by. Everybody begins to wish that the spring election was over, and some sort of a respect able and efficient corporation installed in the places of the present miserable reformers in power. Earrslt —There is said to be some disagreement be tween the almanac makers, and the Ecclesiastics, about the feast of Easter. The almanacs made Easter fall on the 23d of the preaaent month, and the Ecclesiastics on the 30th. The variance it occasioned by a miscal culation of the day of the full mcon, by which Easter is regulated. The Iron District.—The Iron district, which spreads through New Jersey, Ponmylvania. Maryland, and Western Virginia, traverses regions exuberant with coal, and aboundinc in aster-power, and travel ing further West, we find in Ohio, Kentucky, and par ticularly in Yissouri, immense stores of metaliferous wealth adjacent to the most fertile agricultural dis tricts. It is to Pennsylvania, however, we must chief 13 direct our attention. where two fifths of all the iron in the United States is made. The United States contains 80,000 squar#miles of coal, which is about sixteen times as great as Lilacs:al measures of Europe . A single one of these gigantic masses runs from Penn sylvania to Alabama, and must embrace, itself. 50,000 square miles. Out of fifty counties of Pennsylvania, no less than thirty have coal and iron in them, and, out of the 46.000 square miles of Pennsylvania, which form imperfices. there nre 10,000 miles of coal nail iron; while all Great Britain and Ireland have only 2,000—50 that Pennsylvania Rime has an area of cool and iron five times as great as that of Great Britain. The quality of the coal or iron is as tich as thiit of Great Britain, and they have the advantage of lay ing near the water-level; while those of • the latter country are sometimes more than one thousand feet below the surface, and uro excavated through sub ten anean passsages. Hunt': Merchant's Magazine TIIE DECLARATION In a note to the late address of J. ft. Tyson, Esq., before the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, we find some statements calculated to disturb the popular trn &Lions respecting the place. where Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence. It is generally sup posed that the little inn in Fifth Street above Chestnut called "The Jefferson Wigwam," was the place; but Mr. Jefferson himself, in a letter to Dr Meese, of this city, says he resided at the S. W. corner of Seventh and High Streets st the time of writing that celebra ted instrument. It appears, too, that there were two copies of the Declaration signed, the first one on pa per on the 4th of July, and the second one on parch ment on the 2d of August, 1776. Tr dition informs us that the first occasion on which the instrnment was rend to the people was from the steps in front of the State House, on the morning succeeding its adoption; but the first authentic information xe have of its being so read, was on the Bth of July, 177 G, when Capt. Hop kins, "commander of an armed brig." rend it to many thousand listeners in the State Home yard. It is sin gular that the bell which first rung out its peal to an nounce the passage of the act, was cast twenty years before. and had for its motto the prophetic words "To proclaim liberty to captives, and the opening of the prison-loots to them that are bound " The bell is I still preserved in the State House at this place.— Nears Gaz. Analy:iwg a London fog.—Professor Howard, in analyzing the climate of London, took some fog home in a basin, and Lund it to contain nine parts smoke to one part porter. He undertook to extract a pint of stout from the atmosphere of ('ford street on a very foggy day, if the fog only lasted till lie had completed the operation. Battle among the Bees.—During the cold weather the bees generally are torpid, but a few wat m days re viva them. A hive belonging to Mr. Bull of Hartford were noticed to be unusually busy for the season; and on close inspection they were found to be fighting—hav ing been attacked by strang ers . The aggressors be ing of a larger size, could lasily be distinguished After a serious slaughter, nearly all the large bees left the hive, apparently loaded; and during their absence, the hive was covered with a piece open work muslin. The 'victors' soon returned spin for the 'spoils,' and after trying for some time in vain to get through the meshes, finally left with as much reluctance as a poli tician retires from a fat office when suddenly disap pointed. Meanwhile, the few 'victors' who had been left to watch the spoils, found themselves :aught. and manifested great uneasiness—appearing quite anxious to obtain their passports!'—N. Y. Nears. Poisoning in Germany —The trial of a woman for poisoning her husband took place at Splingen, in ortembera, and excited the greatest interest. Chris tiana Rudhardt is a woman of forty, well born, her father having been a physician, her mother Her husband was a goldsmith, who spent his time in looking for the philosopher's stone, or the perpetual motion, and she gave him poison three times before she succeeded in causing his death. Fremont.—A letter fmm Council Bluffs, which we find in the Reveille, informs us that as Lieut Fremont passed the Pawnee Indians, in returning from h 4 late adventurous tour of exploration, the Grand Pawnees had formed a design to assassinate him, and that they were only deterred from it by the Pawnee Loups.—N 0 Pic. Senatorial Fun —ln the debate on the Whim Ap propriation bill, upon nn amendment to give removed Indians a fund annuity in place of the scrip for land, and to vacate Ex-Secretary Spencer's contract for their removal, Mr Evans said the question at issue arose under the famous Dancing Rabbit Creek Treaty, which, as Mr Buchanan said, had danced through two or three administrations, and he believed was destined to dance the Polka for the next four rears.

"Once- upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered wealt and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As if some one gently rapping, rapping at my cham ber door, "Ti. some visiter,” 1 muttered, "tapping at my chamber door— Only this, and nothing more." Et3GIR A. Poe. As ene night t satin sorrow—wishing it would soon be morrow— Reading about the stamps and ear-ache in old works of physi: lure, While wiih pain I was a scowling, suddenly theca came a growling, And full soon a louder howling, luwliag at our entry door, " 'Tis some cursed deg," I muttered, howling at oar entry floor— Some big cur I kicked of yore." Still the clock the hnurs did number, but Old Time brought me no slumber, And each pang of gland and muscle, made ISO dance t wao lo s s the floor, ty I urged my mind out; vainly I had tried to find out From my books some soothing poultice, poultice for an aching gland: Ohl the mumps! and oh! the ear-ache,! who the Devil can withstand With such howling at your door? But the big dog still kept growling, louder, louder LOUDER howling. Oh ! my poor head ! I was near dead—more nervous was I than before; So that then, to still the beating of my heart I kept repeating 'Tie soma flog that's outs ratting, or a eating, near our door— Or perhaps bas run a loafer up the tree our loot before, Only this, and nothing more. Presently (nor was't surprising) I did feel my dander rising, And I said, "who's afraid, I will make that big dog leave the door ;" But pity me, dear friends, I beg, the dog did seize me by the leg, Me lie "hurried"—me he worried, till be threw me on the floor, Where in rage, we did engage, until my poor trowhers Who will buy me any mare 1 Chairs we ratified, as we battled round the room and on the floor; In the fight out went the light and darkest night was brooding o'er; Oh! the pangs of his sharp fangs as he bit roe, very freely bringing gore; Yet I kicked him, and I licked him,first behind and then before, But all wns vain, he caught again—pulling me across the floor— Reader. yet I never swore But just then I got him under—for, my friends, I fought like thunder; With a stick I hit a lick which joined him to the dead dog "corps;" And I mauledhim as I hauled him by the tail across the floor, Where in my jny, i said my boy, "'tilt my opine you'll howl no morn;" Round I swung him, as I flung him full six feet beyond the door, When I yell'd "Ezethior."
