POlt COUP:4'IIV DOLLAR" THE ÜBIQUITY OP THE AMERICAN P S. The fact . that every village thAliout the United States, containing tetx tw hun 'dred people, can boast Oftl , N paper of its own,. has had the 'erect of itiVeloping a our vast deal of 'native talent, of which country may well be proud; besides ano ther portion, perhaps quite as large, ,of which she may not be proud. Literature, in the embodiment, .has. grown into a fat monster, very much like that we arc told Hof in classic fable, 'as having infected the swamps Of Aetna i Clip off one of its heads, and two more instantly dart from the bleeding - trunk.. - :Whether there be a Herculeus in the womb of the Future, to slay this "sarpint," is not for, us to deter mine. We give it, as our private opinion, that killing is not- a necessary cure in the present ease. Andrew Jackson Davis, the Poughkeep sie Seer, in his quaint book on Creation, tells us of a grand cycle in the history of the world, long, long before the Human Period, when chaotic gases steaming up, ' through rocky rifts;from the volcanic cen tre of the globe, formed themselves into huge and horrible Monsters, that lived and moved in a craggy wilderness, whose piled caverns never echoed the sweet voice of birds. As the solemn progress of Time went 'on ay silence, these uncouth out-births of the Animal Kingdoth bec'ome smaller by degrees and more compact and nimble, while their ungainly excrescences dwindle down into proportions of graceful symmet ry. As it was in the dim epoch painted by, this visionary, so we venture to hope it may be with our monster of American Newspaper literature. The warming sun light of imiversal education is fast shed ding a revivifying splendor in every moun tain-glen and valley—on every prairie and broad, green country-side. The mighty dead, whose thoughts have been immor talized in classic volumes, are speaking now to earnest minds in cottages, where dwell the sons of toil, as well as those who live in the pillared halls of marble. It dOeS not require the gift of prophecy to predict the effect of this in another quarter of a century. Our intellectual dainties will then . be more flavored with Attic salt. Ignorance, and the ghost of murdered English, will not then strive so hard for mastery—for n milder power will have baptized the brains of our legion of scrib blers. • But there is a mist, whose - drowsy cur. tains hang around our literature, that the genial beams or education may not dispel. We speak of a tendency on the part of young writers to plagiarize . --we say young writers, for those who are afflicted with this propensity never get to be old Writers, though they liVe to be gray-hair. octogenarian. There is in use a deal of second-hand verbiage it would "do us glad" to sweep into the muddy waves of Utile. It is an egregious orror this, into. which the un practised fall, of repeating the good things of others, forgetful that when we say what has been already often said, we are say ing nothing ourselves, but simply playing echo. There aro verbal felicities that be come anti-musical by repetition. The sunny and fanciful genius does not re quire the worn-out holiday attire of other minds wherewithal to clothe its own beau tiful creations; nor do men of earnest thought need other than natural tangling° to persuade and convince. • To the young aspirant for literary hon ors, could we summon courage to give ad vice where it is least likely to be received, we would say, it ie bettor to abandon your unwise pursuit, unless there is a power that compels you to write; not for fame, or any desirable reward. If You are'so wedded to authorship as to love it enough, because of the intrinsic pleasure it yields to endure uncomplainingly the mortifica tiOn'Of a beggarly life, then it is better y 4 should . keep your 'course, for you aro plainly destined to triumph r. • ! jt ‘ if you don't starve sometime previ ous. If write you • must by strong neces sity, then you arc able to produce thoughts of your own in your own style. There mover was—never will be—a true,' bold thinker, without a mode of expressiodpe euliarly his own. The very freshness of thoughtiMparts a corresponding freshness of utterance. Language is, after all, noth ing but-the mantle of - the soul; and like the guF ent of the Nazarite, it grows With the wearer. True, it may be patched with'grirbUal.shreds from the robes of eth ers, until it resembles the mosaic pave ment of a _Turkish7posque ; but such filch hinge are Ryer visible to the dullest eye.

The hire of his labor can never be paid in the coin of this world, were the niggardly world ever so liberal. Ho shuts up his strong yearn ings within his own breast, and is deeply, beautifully bumble in the faith that he is a prophet of good to others. In that is his boon of gladness;nor does he deem it a mean reward. Nerved by this enduring trust to brave the bitter blasts of poverty, and the venom-bite of the mud-worm he dis dains ; ho toils assiduously in sickness, in health, in the cheerful noon of life, and in the awful shadow of the grave. He scat ters sheet after sheet from beneath his fin gers, and keeps his painful vigils night af ter night, until the taper flickers in the socket—and life is ended. And others read his pages when he is gone, and grow earnest too, because he was earnest. The fluff= comes from his .plough at evening, and gathdring his little boy in his arms, together they turn the leaves until the spirit of the departed grows mighty in the breasts of the living. The farmer dies—calmly as the virtuous ever die.--but his-blessing remains with his son, whose soul burns with the thoughts of the author until his voico is heard in manhood, and others grow better because he lives. Thus it is that the weary laborer is grab ified, and the world is brightened, because the man of genius was true to his high impulses. But this art'ele has unconsciously grown too long by several paragraphs, and we have incontinently strayed from the road on which we started. CLLAUFIELD, March, 1850. HUNGARY-CLOSE OF THE WAR. The New York Tribune translates the following account of the last events of the Hungarian war from a statement of Kos suth, published in London, and translated from the Hungarian language into Ger man: "An aristocratic coterie was formed in the camp, secretly conducted by Gorgey. The plan began to be known to the Gov ernment. This was the true state of things after the . victories of Izsasscgh, Waitzert and Sazlo. At that time Kossuth consid ered Hungary strong enough to conquer I the Russians, or at least to protract the war until an honorable peace could he se cured to HunmAry by the intervention of European diplomacy. Gorgey only knew how to gain a victory, but not to make use of it. The siege of Comorn might have been a second battle of Marengo, if Gor gey had followed up the enemy with the Gaspar corps, which he permitted to be entirely idle. The General was then so popular, that Kossuth hesitated to remove him from the supreme command ; mean tiino he named him for Minister of War, and transferred the command to Damjair icb. But Gorgey delayed his departure from the camp, by all manner of preten ces, until thectipproach of the Russians.— On the arrival of the first Russian corps the idea of treating with them was spread abroad by the friends of Gorgey. The Russian intervention found Hun- , igary fully equipped, and stronger to meet , the Austrian Russian army than it had been-aff ° ainst Austria alone. An arrny of 141,000 troops of . the • -line, fortresses in, the best condition and well prOvisiontld,' new battalions to reinforce the regiments, a reserved force of 10 regiments:of cava 'ry all complete,'manufactures of arms an powder in full • netivitY, innumerable hos-i pitals-,--these were the resources of Hun ' fury. With those . there were ; 140,000 Russians, 80,000 Austrians, and 40,000 Jellachich's men to be conquered. It was a plan to beat the hostile corps one after another. Kossatkagreed with Gorgey to let the Russians enter without giving them battle, to beat the Austrians and march to Vienna. In case of defeat, the war must be transferred to Gallacia, and if there was any loss on this side, an incursion was to be madc'through Sfeyermar into Italy, re-' turning with the Italians and Hungarians who served in Radetzky's army into Aus tria This plan was . *approVed by Gor gey, but completely 'frustrated by hiM in, 'the execution: ' The government • displa-.1 'CC& him, but he organized a • military rev-, olutieln, which compelled; him to disobey), the igbvorntnent.' ' GOrgey now throw off, the mask. "At 'this:Moment," says Kos- 1 suth, "I. stood nlcine; deserted, poWerleSs. 'Nothing was left to Mei but the choice be live'en banishment mid- death:.

The Canso of Early Decay in American Woman's power to please, and the dread of het disapprobation, holds our sex in such absolute subjection, that the men ior is too often merged into the lover, and even whilst fascinated by her once, and trying to silence our hearts for our dereliction, her fragile form is bending,H under those unchangeable and inexorable laws to whose teachings we have failed to direct her, and the grave receives at once the object of our love, and the evidence of our neglect of a duty, more sacred than any other enjoined upon us by the Creator. Yes ;—Man should be the teacher of wo man ; he enjoys the privilege to guide her steps aright ; his is the strong arm and the judging head; hers' it, is to illuminate the' path with the sunlight of her smile, to gladden his ear with the music of her voice ' and to cheer him with the blest and refi ning influence of her presence. We do not believe it was the design of the Creator to invest her with the sterner attributes of a Newton or La Place, a Washington or a Shakspeare. It is glory enough for her to have nourished the phil-! osopher with her blood, to, have planted the seeds of virtue in his heart, mid led his steps to an age when he becomes her pro tector and the fulfiller of his destiny. In thus expressing ourselves, shall we lie told by some miscalled reformers, that we de grade the position of women ? Who was the mother of the philosophers, heroes and poets who have she'd lustre upon past ages? They neither discovered the laws of mo tion of a universe; upheld expiring liberty, nor impressed the living page with the in most emotions of the soul, they fulfilled their destiny: let us hot forget ours. If it were not for the present wretched state ofthei r moral and ! physical education, Lind the too early development of their pas sions, or that miserable spirit that presides over the hearts and money bags of too ma il), of our Species, our children might start on the race of life with ..•far better pros pects of reaching its natural termination : marriage would not be contracted before the age of reason, with that absolute sel fishness that now governs them. Scro fula would not mate with . scrofula, insu ring consumption to a line of diseased off spring. Insanity would not seek the altar as it certain introduction to the madhouse. Gout would not bequath his aching toes and crutches to a line of cripples. These things have been called by wor thy people, "the mysterious dispensation of Providence." But the nineteenth cen tury, with her tables of statistics, and her flood of physiological light, will no longer permit us to soothe our consciences with such a delightful plaster for sins against light and knowledge. The sins of the parent are indeed visited on the third gen eration of diet - A that know the right and still the wrong pursue. Is there no rem edy for so great an evil ? ALPHA So far as it concerns their original or. ganic strength or life-force, males and fe males are brought into the world with e. • Oat chances of life, whatever the condi tion of health, may be in the parents.— Both sexes, however, have, in our opinion, better chances of surviving, if the mother be healthy, even if the fathcr,be feeble ; for the development of the body depend. ing upon the blood of the mother exclu sively, health is more likely to exist at its birth, if the supply of the material be pure and plenty. The chances continue to be equal, so far as our observation goes, du ring the period of early infancy, or 'to be accurate, before they can run. After this', boys enjoy by far the best chances of ac quiring health until adult life, when casu alties and disipation, and subsequently the cares and anxieties attendant upon the sup port of a family, increase the mortality among males. It is probably for this rea , On that the number of male births exceed e female ones about four per cent, If it be true, then, that the chances of h 'lth for the two sexes, are equal at the ou .et, we must show some very decided an e'ndisputable cause's for the difference obse viable at puberty, or what we have yet t say, will serve but to show our own telly t making assertions we cannot sub- ' stantia Let us look a little after their early t fining.

' Well—they are off for school ;—observe how circum spectly' my' little miss walks : soon she chides her brother for being "rude." He nothing daunted, starts full tilt after a stray dog or pig; and though ho often tumbles in the mud, and his clothes get spoiled, the result is soon visible in. increase of ~ , lungs and ruddy cheeks.

Thus sits the wretched child with book in hand, from nine till twelve .or one o'clock, and sometimes !three. 'The boy with the aid 1 ofsticking a pin now and then in his next neighbor, and occasionully falling asleep and tumbling from his•bench from pure nervous exhaustion, to the great relief of, hie half-stagnent blood-vessels and torpid nerves, endures it till another merciful pig or dog chase makes him feel that he is alive. But our unfortunate little miss is in a distressed condition. She is charged to walk "straight home," where she is al-1 lowed to select her dinner from those ar- 1 tides that afford the nutrition, such as! pastry, cake,Tich puddings and apples,— I This, by the way, is her second meal of the same character, having taken one ei ther at breakfast or lunch. Indeed, she requires no better food ; for she has had no exercise -to consume the azote of the meat she ought to eat, Remember, that her muscles move her limbs, and are com posed rhiqfty of nzote; and it is the red meat or muscle of beef or mutton that she would cat f',.slie had any appetite for its; the fact is, the child'has fever, and loathes meat. ~' . Allot. dinner, she either -sits down to her sampler, or the piano, and in all pro babilitp finishes the day with tea end preserves, She is then posted off to a feather bed in an unventilated room, with the door shut for fear the little darling will take cold. A Notes stove or furnace keeps the upper chambers from 85 dg. to 100 dg., land the feather bed and the blankets, re taining all the heat of the body, swelter the wretched little creature till morning- What wonder that she gets spinal curva ture, irnot actual deposits of tubercles in the body of her vertebrae or lungs ? All this we have oxplainedat length in the ar ticle on Consumption. We have there shown, that although strongly predisposed to that form of scrofula, consumption, as well as spinal disease, can often be over come by exercise, air and a strong meat diet; and though a child be actually free of scrofula, that it may be produced by I such a barbarous and wretched mode of life as we have painted above; one that we grieve to say is extremely common in this city,, Boys often escape these evils by parental neglect—and a precious boon for them it is; but the poor girls are de- prived of nature's only method ofkeeping the pale-faced monster at bay. Now, if this picture be denied, take you two children of common parents, ,ut ' common country school, two miles from I home, and if they, have sufficient clothing, and good food, even though the benches have no backs, and the schoool house be overheated and little better than a pig-pen, tell .Ine, if at twelve years of age the girl I cannot often wrestle with her brother, and ask no favors of him. As the`.period "of pubertyapproaches, the constant deprivation of her natural wants ofgood,air, plain nutritrous food, and plenty of unrestrained exercise, be conics more apparent 'in its results; she is exceedingly awkard ; her face is pale and her cycli 4 s swollen ; the tight dresses, 'those accursed womatilk liters, cripple the play of the heart and lungs, and do not el low,the blood to circulate freely in the ex tremities in short, 'she is literally a bread - ands butter girl; with a distressing con . sciousness or being all hands and feet.— But new cornmencesanother and more se. rioud'difficulty, she js te•enter upon a new and wonderful ,phase . of her existence.— If-she : have been 'Permitted to share - the sports of her 'brothers, end to - enjey 'the comforts of a happy home and intellec tual, parents,' her cheek maybe Invested with the blusehs'of Modesty, and her eyes assume the language" of love unconscious ly to herself; nature's great end is attain ed With . ; so little disttirbance • of 'the 'her- VOUS and circuldting • functions, tha t a.Teiv weeks produce an astonishing .ehangeln her .eppedrante. •:- But Yoiterday, she was ti childi'pleaSed . a' puppet , . or a doll'; now She is ,a women, - prepared 'to syMPa this'e arid to love.- ' ::" ,Supposo, on , the othei hand;'"slie be the unfortunate, child of .

The truth' is, nature has been 'utterly foiled in the proper attainment of her greatest end, by crippling her Only Meth od of producing the life force. Air, rood, and exercise of proper quality and quant ity, and unrestrained song, laughter and lort; these are her means, and these she !must have, or healthful puberty can nev er be established. If she finally break through all this cordon of ignorance, and attempt to invest her child with the crown ing glory of womanhood—if the' rose at last blooms faintly on her check, it is but to often the precursor of hysteria, and in stead of being the delight of the social cir cle, she' becomes a constant source of anx iety and misery to those who sarrotind her. In short, she becomes "nervous," an d that is an ep . toine of horrors. Mien worse than death itself. So far we have spoken of the more pal pable evils of her every day existence, whose direct effect on her body is so ap ; parant, that they are beginning to attract the notice of the thinking world.. Hew shall we approach the subject of her in tellectual being? What can we say of her mental education as conducted in this city? . It sickens the heart to contemplate •the education of female children in this city. ShOuld nature even triumph over all the evils we have enumerated, no sooner has tha`poor girl attained the age of puberty,' than her mind and nervous system aro placed upon the rack of novel reading and sentimental love stories. There is just enough of truth in most of these mawkish productions to excite the passions and dis tract the attention of theyounff c girl from the love of nature and her teachings and all rational ideas of real life, and to cause her to dispise the (to her) common-place patents, whose every hour may be occu pied with considerations for her welflere. Much has been done to injure the mor als of our young girls by the publication of the overstrained and impure produc tions of the infamous school of modern French novelists. Dickens and Bremer, Sedgwick • and Child, may counteract, in some degree, the effect of the writings of such moral lepers but when mothers praise such productions in presence of their children, there is but too much reason to suppose they will be read by the curious girl, and ,their full, ef fect produced. • . ;• It is the premature excitement that we dread: the licentious characters presented in all the glom int , c' tints of depraved ima gination, cannot fail injuriously to affect the youthfuLgrganism. The forces of the young heart ii vascular system, are thus prematurely goaded into sphermal action by the stimulus of imagination, A mor bid centre is thus created in the system, whose pernicious action is manifest in the diversified forms of hysteria; and nothing' less than the total wreck of the youthful body often follows this infernal hot bed of the passions—this altar of sacrifice for the young.
