'would but too readily conctudevtbar atrhis season 1
of frost and snow, when the earth may bo skid to
. - be locked up,that the-husbandman has little else to.
than to enjoy himself in luxurious ease upon the
. . iltrits•of hislast year's labors—occupy his time
in the Interchange of elegant hospitality with his
ueighbora.andi friends—but he who makes such
calculations of the, farmer's, life, bases them on
foundations as frig ile and unsubstantial. as are the
• ',hopes Of those who waste their time in fruitless
-searches after the philotiopher'e stone. for tho'
. the agriculturalist who adepts Cludicious system
of operations, can always command his hours or
days . of recreation •to devote to the offices of
friendship, or of go od neighborhood, still such are
- the continuous culls upon his time, that even in

of the duties of Wattling—and it may often hap !.

when the weather is the moat inclement—that hie
services may be most imperiously required. Thus
'situated, the mind of the 'skilful husbandman is
always awake—ever on the alertss-to turn the
' --passing events - of the season to the best account.
But to much, there is this consoling reflection,
- that though it Is the nature of his avocation to
press him onward, such is the character of the
excitement which it gives rite to, that his labors

EDITOeIAL CIIINOE.—Oar friend CRASS, we are
sorry to observe by the last . “Statesman,,' has re.
tired torn the -Ediifirlacharee of that paper. Mr.

much to sustain in following in his footsteps. We
cordially welcerne Mr. Hamilton, the new Editor,

large congregation Was pre s ent, Out the pinieed..
ings were , of great' interest. After a prayer and
hymn, the_ Constitution and the Annual Report of
the Society
. were, read by Rev. Roanwr-Emonv.
The annual

JOHN McCLlNroex, in which the 'charitable feel-
ings ofhis his audience were invoiced in River of
the poor by a powerful appeal, glowing with ferVid^
and impassioned eloquence.
The Report of the laborinf the Society, during
the past. year was highly. satisfactory, and ex
hibited an amount pf good done that will ensure
to thi;ni the lasting - gratitudonf the - relieved. It
it gratifying . ' to know that amidst the . rigorous
/levet of the weather which i has lately been ex
perienced, the poor, whith. s t n the language of
scripture, " we have alwayl ivith us,r tiaire,not
heels without kind ministering hands to relieve
their destitution and assist them in' their distress.
,By the Report of this Society, we learn that is,
.has expended near 5200, and supplied over thirty
families with the necessaries of life,' some 'of
whom, from their helplessness and utter 'neaps
city to maintain 'themselves in consequence of
age or sickness, must , have experienced the most
• intense suffering , wit hout tho timely relief exten
ded by this society. .Elesidei money expended, a
.considerablo amount- of-clothing has also - been
diatributed. Another object of the Society is, to
procure employment for those able and willing to
be industrious, in which they have been of much
' service to those whose want of energy has left
them without occupation, and consequently with.
out means.
The Ist instant found the treasury of the So.
!misted; a . collection wan therefqre taken up on
Sunday - evening for the purpose of replenishing
it. We have not learned what amount was col
lected, but if it was not large enough for the pur
poses of the Society, it is to be hoped our citizens
will step forward with their means speedily, and
not permit the benevolent designs and labors of
the association to .be suspended at a time when
the Vic - rchig air and snow clad -ground is fur
nisyng exilerating enjoyments to the rich, but
only fruitful in bringing more acute misery
to the the duty of every one to give
every assistance in his power to the noble and
praiseworthy exertions of this Society to amelior
ate human suffering.
Mr. Clay in Now Oriental.
The last paperd from New Orleans give ac
counts of Mr. Clay's reception there on the 23(t'
ult. it seems to have been grandly brilliant and
as honorable to the city as it was to the , man.—
tie was. met by an immense procession composed
of citizens, officers of the State and city, the mili
Lary, &c. and escorted to the residence of a friend.
in the city, when the procession - disbanded. One
of 'the papers says—evcry street was full of the
multitude. They hung upon the projections of
the housel---they dotted the roofs' and filled the
windows with the faces and glittering eyes of pa
triots, enthusiasts, and beauties. The ladies wav
ed hanbeichiefs and the men clapped hands and'
made shouts. Mr. Clay never had a prouder re
ception in-any-country, and he never can have un
der any circumstances. Ile has been truly car-
Tied on pie shoulderaof -the hearts of .the people!

letters in - reply - to certain charges made by Sec.

Al, the homesteads seem to flee—
Swept swiftly on the winged blast,
But faster still dash we—
Old Time may stay his running sand
And cast his scythe away ;
We live to-night in a spirit-land
That's far beyond his sway.
How spotless yonder snow-wreath's breast,
HOW briglityon goltlejl star ; •

When years have filled fife's ehrystal bowl
With waves of strife and pride,

And its fond springs have dried,
Oh! doted not but thine eye more bright,
And thy brow more clear shall be,

The Perry Democrat, a good loco limo paper
"gives a piece of its mind" about the late apPiiint
Inca of the Governor's Son,in the following mu.
ly article. It is creditable to the Editor's bade.
pendent spirit. Our fiiend of the Volunteer, we
have no doubt corresponds perfectly with him in
opinion, but has not room to give his indignant
feelings - utterance at length .1
"It was with no ordinary surprise we noticed
the appointment of William A. Porter, the son of
Gov. Porter, to the office of Eiberi ()film city
and county of Philadelphia. Time, a mere boy.
who scarce hate a vote, has been inducted into the
most lucrative office in the State over men who .
ere,more deserving, equally competent, who have
lived in Philadelphia county all . their lives, and
battled in the cause of Democracy until their
heads are covered with the frosts of age. When

not as then to be greeted by only two or three

homage of more than a thousand hearts, kindled

On the 27th, while' the bill to repeal thellatik,
rope Law was udder consideration, Cushing;'
Masenchnsette, whO is the leader of "-We

speech of sere:Unordinary 'character arts ex

of both Whigs andloco Foods.' The ,correspon,

Mr. Cushing continued. -118 had maid that Ills

and that was the basis'of ell 'hi's conclusions: 7 -

charge or his official functions; the endelvor to
do tie much public good as Providence would
permit.. In discharging this his duty, he - was
bound to look at Acts around him; to see how
far he could count on co operation by the People
or their' Representatives.. (Laughter.), When
gentlemen talked about the treason or certain of
the President's friends—the gentleman from Vir.
ginia (Mr. Wise) for example. or himself; (end
he really thought they_hud - their full share of'
personal abuse,) the question was how the qor
ernment war to be carried on, and by whose aid.
Mr. b. Would say TO gentlemen of all partiee in
the House, and more especially' to gentlainen

newed sensation, laughter,- and-cries - of "that'.
RV "that's it!" "good bye l") If you Whigs
(said Mr. C.) will lock the wheels of Government,
I trust aid will be found in the' Democrats ; and,
thus and thus only . I present the question to the
House. (The Mouse was flit. a time. in no little
confusion, though apparently more in merriment,
then anger.) , •
Thus, Mr. C. went on to °Nerve, we had pre.
stinted to us. ii, these United States, a great ca., i
titer of ambition; and its end was the culminat
ing point of huMan greatness, at least in this
country, if not the very highest ascent of human
ambition in Christendom. And if they looked
round; -- he knew not how many competitors were
striving for the pr ize; he doubted if he could
count them on his fingers. (A voice "
Well, say five. (A voice, "Name them; do name
them.") It is not necessary that
_I should name
them. • ("Oh do!") Their."name is Legion!"—
In this state of things, Mr. C. said he knew nut
how far parties might split, whether from differ
enee in opinion or from - personal relations, He
could see in the race for the Presidency no indi.
vidual Who, so fares he could judge% -presented
un overwhelming, irresistible power. • Looking
to overt acts as the criterion, he should say there
was' no . such competitor.. Ho .understood that
there was be a Whig Convention'and them was
also to be a Democratic Convention, and he did
nOt know that they might not agree. (A laugh.)
But there were, certain - biiddinge—some early
blossoms of discord—which might lead to a doubt
whetiy,ould_be the-precise-course-of these:core,

know, that during a year and a half to come there.

yes, Jo say it, do;)—it would .not be for the poli.
tical interest of any one of the putties tee rry

Mehl Mr. C. was brought to a pause - by peals
of laughter, and cries of
." Ah, that's a tender
point.") •
The next .lay, the Bankrupt Bill being again
under discussion, Mr. Thompson, a Whig from
Indiana, replied to Mr Cushing's bargain and
sale speech. The following is an extract from
his speech
This was the first time in the, history of the
American Severnment, or of any civilized Gov
ernmeut, where the acknowledged head and lead.
er of the Administration party on the floor of the
House of Representatives—who spoke forth at
home and here by the authority of the Adminis.
ttation—who, if "rumor" did not lie, not only did
for the Administration a _large portion vif speak
ing, lint of thinking, t00...wh0 was the acknow.
!edged head of the Administration party on the
, floor; it Was the first time . in any civilized coon.
try where the Administration of the Government
had boldly stelki4 into the Representative Hah
1 1 of the People and held up the spoils of office, or
whaiever'else of power might have accumulated
around the Kxecutive, and brought them into
- market for sale to the highest bidder.
In another part of Mr. Thompson's. reply, we
ffind_ffie-following-venterice:
In all the opposition of the Whig party to the
Administration of General .ackson and Mr. Van
Buren, it was not claimed by gentlemen. then
sustaining those Administrations that the power .
lodged in the hands of the President, of vetoing
bills, was to Iffi used for the purpose of enabling
the President to accomplish hii sinister purposes:
Mr. Thompson concluded by calling upon the
Loctifoco members to • answer for the overture',
made by Mr. Coal:log, or the people would think
that their "silence gave consent."
This brought out a young Loco Foco member
from the same State; Mr. Kennedy, an eccentric
kind of a Homier, who entertained the Howie
with .a serio.ceinico epirech,.full of - humor, oar.
cam, irony, and ridicule of Mr. Cushing s "con
atitutional fact," which was any thing but grafi.
fying to said "fact." But the Globe, the Locofoco
national organ,' comes down on to the "fact" the
hardest of all. Speaking of Cuthing's speech.

Millerisin.;
The Rev. , A. C.-Thomas lectured adverse to:,
the absurd doctrines of Millerism, at the Brook.
lyn Lyceum, a night or two ago The Now Y.
Espre.sa notices his discourse thus:
' The foundation of Miller's theory' was upon
the prophecies of Danid and the Apocalypse=
The precise year of 1843 was obtained in several
ways by the different lengths of time to he allow.
ed for the accomplishment of the prophecies, and
by the manner in which lie computed the time
meant by the 2300 days in Daniel and the Seven.
ty years. That Mind's theory Was erroneons he
proved by quoting some other prophecies in which
the term of' days and years were used in prophe.
cy as in common language with ids now.
- - As instaneee, he quoted first the destruction of l i
Nineveh predicted by. Jonah, and that it was de
etroyed at the time specified t no one could doubt
he said. So is the case or Joshua in his promise
to the Israelites that he would take them across
' the Red Sea in' three days, no one could doubt
that it was completed in three jays instead of
years. He also quoted the passage in Genesis
where God promised Noah thatAt_the_end_of-
seven days it should rain forty days and forty
nights, which also was completed; and to show
in a more striking light the absurdity of calling
a day a year, as done by Miller, as flu. instance,
Nebuchadnezzer was to paes seven times seven
years among' the heaets of the field. Miller's
rule of a year for a day would leave Nebuchad.
truer at gifee — at the present time and 130 years
to remain, And apply it to the seventy years
captivity of the Jews at Babylon, they have at
present more time to fulfil than has yet elapsed.
The other error' in Miller's calculation are of the
same bort.
