Aiicc-clote of Ir. DwIghtsV Joseph Denny.
Joseph Denny, while Editor of that brilliant
periodical, llio Port Folio, was travelling
through New Jersey, and arriving lute in the
evening 8t a village Hotel, asked for lodgings.
The inn keeper informed him that his rooms
were all full, except one which was occupied
hy Dr. Dwiglit. 'Introduce me into the room,'
uid Denny, 'and I will make tny way.' The
tavern keeper accordingly took him into the
room without announcing his name. Dr. Dwight
was .truck with his intellectual countenance,
and fikiii entered into a literary conversation.
The distinguished men of America were passed
rapidly in review at length Dr. D. named
Denny passed a liifli eiiloiriuin upon him.
and called him the Addison of America 'but j
what a pity,' added he, 'this man is given to j
midnight revels. 'I believe, said Denny, mo
dectly, 'that is not the fact.' 'Permit me to
tell you,' said the Doctor, very positively,
'iliat I know it is the fact ; for I have heard it
from authority on which I can perfectly rely.'
After a moment's pause, the current of con
versation was resumed: Mr. Denny spoke of
our distinguished divines of our Edwards, our
Davies and others at length he mentioned
Dr. Dwight, and pronounced him the first
TiiniLOciAN and the first Popt that America
had produced 'but what was a pity,' said he,
that he is the most dogmatic man alive.' 'This,'
said Dwight, 'is not the fact.' 'Permit me to
tell you,' replied Denny, 'that I know it is the
fact 1 have had it from authority on which I
can perfectly rely.' The Doctor a little piqued
raised his voice, said, 'I am the Doctor Dwight
of whom you speak!' 'And I, said Denny,
'am the Mr Denny of whom you speak.' Alter
this introduction, they arose and shook hands,
and were good friends.

A Splendid Fully.
When the Will of Stephen Uirard was pub
1 shed and it was known he had appropriated
two millions of dollars 10 the establishment of
Orphau College, the public attention was much
excited. Some anticipated great results. O
tliers thouif lit it greatly folly; and others,
thought again, there was a principle in that
Will which sooner or later, would destroy oil
the good which the right use of so much capi
tal might have produced. We road every
iine of the Will with cure und attention. Our
i in pros ion was, that Mr. Uirard had made a
great mistake J thnthis intentions would never
bo carried out, and that if they vere, no real
blessing would cvr-r rest upon an Institution
plainly raised upon an anti christian principle.
The result has come in a good measure,
murali sooner than might have b.:en supposed.
Mr. Girard drew a description of the College,
mo that the building might lave the utmost du
rability with the utmost plainness. No body
could mistake his meaning.
What do the trustees do ! They set to work
to contrive how they can avoid the intention of
the Will. They commence building an im
mense nmrble palace, with all the ornament
and Cost ofgorgeoiu eastern architecture. They
appoint a gentleman President, and send him
to Europe to cultivate his ideas. Ten years
have passed away, and the Girard College is
not finished, the liirard Orphans are not there;
but the Girard Fi nd is rapidly disappearing.
Such w ill he found to be the History of most
persons who endeavor to execute their will af
ter the r death. He who wishes to do good,
must do it in his lite-time. Cincinnati Chron.
Fight Uli a Slaver!
We have just received the particulars of a
fight which tout; place oil Havana, between a
slaver and a British brig of war in the latter
part of last month.
The slaver was full of slaves and heavily
armed. She beat off the brig of war after a
short fight. The Sol way, one of the West In
dia mail steamers, of the size of the Clyde,
fired up on perceiving the engagement, with
the intention of going to the assistance of the
brig, but relinquished her object on seeing t'ie
brig decline coining to close quarters with the
bold slaver. So a steam ship and a brig of war
were frightened ofl'bya single slave vessel !
We believe we are acquainted with this for
midable slaver. We believe her to have been
at one time the barque Isaac Ellif, of this port-
We know 6,,e was sold for n slaver; mounted
witl' six twelve pounders, and a long Tom.
And it is our impression that sho is owned by
the Captain and owner of the Clara, whieh was
brought into this port by H. U. M. brig Buz
zard, in the summer of 15CW. He escaped then,
and vowed vengeance against the British. fX.

The system of owning letters in France by
agents of the govormncnt still continues, being
one of the purest characteristics of a despotism.
The board, called the cam.m-t mjik, 110 longer
exists by name, but the Prelect of Police sends
occasional lists to the Director-General of the
Post Otlice containing the names of persons
whose letters are to be transmuted to the Min
ister of the Interior beforo they are delivered,
according to their addresses. The seals are
carefully broken, the correspondence read and

office of the Minister to receive these letters
and carry them to their destinations. It 6ome

German Poet "Goethe
As illustrating, however, the result of persever

plication in every branch of knowledge, Goethe
deservedly stands an, example and enmursgement
to all. Behold him a student of the Fine Arts
and at the same lime mastering nil the Sciences,
and thus thoroughly acquainted with Anatomy,
Geoloiiy, Chemistry, Astronomy, Ilut,iny and the
like. Look into his Culiincts there you will find
Piints of every description, Drjwings without

in Geology and hN.tsny, dins and Medal?, An

while you gize around in astonishment, you cannot
believe that all this was not the work of some So

on her passage fiom Virginia lo New Orleau, mu
tiired, and murdered the captain and some of the
crew, and run into a British ort. Tbs following
sie srnong the resolution alluded lo :
Res lved, That when the brig Creole, on her
passage from New Orleans, left the territorial
jurisdiction of Virginia, the slave laws of that
State ceased to have jurisdiction over the per
sons on board said brig, and such persons became
amenubleonly to the law sol the United Slates.
Kesolved, that the persons on board said ship,
in resuming their natural rights of personal lib
erty, vwluted no law of the United States, in
curred no legal penalty, and are justly liable to
no punishn-eut.
Kesolved, That all attempts to regain posx-s-sion

The Right of Sean,!.
On our first page will be found several extracta
from a pamphlet published by (Sen. ('are, at Paris,
upon the subject of Ilia ''Right of Search," as claim
td by Great Britain. The right of searching Ame
rican vessels, for the purpose of discovering British
seamen, was one of ihe principal cause of the last
war. England has entered into an alliance with
some uf the Europe. n powers, for the purpose,
ihey say, of suppressing Ihe slave trade, and in this
view claim the right of searching all vessel carry,
ing ihe Ameiicsn flag, which they may suspect.
The Americans deny ibis right, and in defence will
repel sny attempt made to enforce it, by recourse lo
arms. lien. Cass, in his pamphlet, clearly shows
that although ihe object of Great Biitain ia, tutensi
bh, the suppression of the slave trade, that she has
ulte lior objects in view, of much deeper importance,
namely, the undisputed dominion of the aeas. Up
on the publication of (ten. Cass's views, the eyes
of the French Cabinet, as well as of ihe French
people wa opened, and the result is, that the
Chnnilier of Deputies will never sanction the trea

it a dead letter.

Mr. Evans return to him again controverted
yesterday, the position that Mr. Calhoun had laid
down and sttempted to establish, one which was
that trade and commerce had Increased as the du
ties on foreign articles imported had diminished.
Mr. E. stated, and prove ! that the exports of all
domestic produce and manufacture had diminish
ed since 1833, except the articles of cotton, iron,
tobacco and snuff. That the srticle of soap snd
csndle,boot and shoes, hats, household furniture
snd Ac, had diminished to a very great extent
some uf ihom lo the amount of 60 per cent, under
the operation of decreasing duties. He also stated
that Ihe manufacturers were now making an srti
cle of Eaal India cotton, which was iritendcj to
take ihe place of our course cotton piece goods, and
which they were now selling in the Rio Janeiro
market at shout six or seven cents s yaid, whereas
our cotton would n bs afforded there for less
than eight or nine cents s yard. He fuilher stated
under the operation of the law which shall reduce
the duty on all articles down to 20 per cent, the
Britifh goods manufactured of this East India col
ton, could be imported into this country and sold
at the doors of our citton factories cheaper, by a
cent, or two a yard, than our coarse cottons can
be afforded, nil. I that thus, under the oK-ralion of
the law.tbe Uiiti,!i mantihiclurcia could iffoctually
shut up eery cotton fsrtory in this country, and
