But, if the bad spirit is chased from the heart, And the lips are in penitence steeped, With the wrong so repented the wrath will depart, Though scorn on injustice were heaped : For the best compensation is pai4 for all ill, When the cheek with contrition is wet, And every one feels it is possible still, At once to forgive and forget. To forget? It is .bard for a man with a mini!, . However his heart may forgive, To blot out all perils and dangers behind, • And but for , the future to live: , Then how shall it ha ? for at every turn Recollection the spirit will fret, And the millet. of injury will smoulder and burn, Though we strive to forgive and forget. Oh, hearken! my tongue shall the riddle uneeal, And mind shall be partner with heart, While thee to-thyself I bid conscience reveal, And show thee how evil thou art: Remember thy bonier, thy sins, and—thy crimes, How vast is that infinite debt ! Yet Mercy hath seven by eeventy times Been swift to forgive and forget. Brood not on insults or injuries old, For thou att injurious too— Count not the sum till the total is told, For thou art unkind and untrue And if all thy harms are forgotten, forgiven, Now mercy with justice is met ; 06, who would not gladly take lessons of Heaven , Nor learn to forgive and forget? Yes, yes, let a man when his enemy rrepa, Be quick to receive him a friend For thee on his head in kindness he heepe Hot coals—to refine and emend : And hearts that are Christian more eagerly yearn, An a nurse on her innocent pet, Over lips tiler, once bitter, to penitence turn, And whisper, forgive and fcrget. Philosophy. Hew superior is a poor roan with a rich spirit to a rich man with a poor spirit! To borrow the ex pression of St. Paul, he is "as having nothing and gae pbhavan* all things and yeehaving nothing. The first hopes every thing; the ti it hopes .nothing, and fears ev ery thing. There tis no absolute poverty without poverty of spirit, The sunshine of the mind gives only the bright del, 1-'e who lives under its influ• race is courted by all men, and may, if he will, en joy their goods withLut their troubles. The world is, as it were, held itternst for him ; and, in freedom from care, he is entitiA to be' celled a gcntleman.,-• fie is the most indervntlent•cif all men, , because fortune has the least power over MM. He is the only man that is freol!ind unfettered', he may do what ho pleases, and nothing can be expectottfrom I him. He escapes impuaity and flattery, and feels a perpetual consciousness that he is not sought-but for himself. Suspicion of motives never chills his confidence, nor withers his enjoyment. Ho sees on enr;:hing power within himself, which makes hi s outward wants easily supplied with industry and prudence, without thenecessity of anxious toil. A little is his enough, and beyond is an incum i bronco. This is the Chr;Vian doctrine and the 1 doctrine of reason, which ever go together. The principle is the same whether a roan have a family or not; good training is a better patrimony than wealth. To promote richness of spirit as a nation al characteristic, it is necessary to have spirited governments, both local and general, and in each community a large common purse—the very re verse of the present tone, and of the wretched doc trines df the economists. The greatest quantity and the greatest diffusion of enjoyment, with the least care, are to be found under a ty*tem of pri vate comfort and public magnificence. A couple of Rocky Mountain Mottles escaped from their cage in the menagerie of Herr Driesbach, at Zanesville, Ohio, on the 11th: and the Gaiette gives the following account of the conflict to secure thetti At the time, there were four men in the Iniilding, Harr Dricabach, Paul Morgan, Abi•ahani and Arthur Crippen, but accustomed an they were to such animals, they thought only of saving the smaller animals that were fastened in differen parts of the building, without apprehending personal dan ger to themselves. Crippen ran out of the building to get a Pitch fink, when, closing the door after him, it (whetted itself, which kept him out. Morgan hastened back Co take 'care of the riding monkey, when one of the Weiveir attacked him, and got him down, and es tihiiher ran to his assistance; he was attacked end dtfeidowered by tIM other wolf. At this Mornent Herr Drieabach was the only one dis engaged, and picking up a chair he dashed it to pieces, to obtain it round for a chit,.

Hillard, before the Common Council of Boston, upon the subject of creating a Superintendent of the Public Schools—a bill to ac-' complish that object being before the Cern:cif: .4 hove Token strongly in favor of this measure, because I ern convinced of its utility. I think that a wise, faithful and zealous superintendent will give completeness and efficiency to our system of school government. The schools of Boston are the beet jewels in her crown. If I were asked by en intelli gent stranger to point out to him our most valued possession', I would show to him not our railroads, our warehouses filled with the Wealth of all the earth, cur ships, our busy wharves and marts, where the car of commerce is ever "thundering loud with her ten thousand vrheele," but I Would carry him to one of our public schools, would show him its happy and intelligent children, hushed into rever ent silence at their teacher's word, or humming over their tasks with a sound like that of bees in June. Iwould tell him that here was the foundation on which our material prosperity woe reared, that here were the elements from which We constructed the Stater .1-fere are the fountains from which flow those streams which make glad our land. The schools of Boston, are dear to my heart. Though I can have no perconal and immediate interest in them; though no child on earth culls me father; yet most gladly do I contribute to their support, according to my subatance; arid when I see a father's eyes filled with pleosarit tears, as he hears the music of his child's voice linked to some strain of poetry or burst of elorptuce, I con sympathise in the feeling in which I cannot share. May the blessing of Heav en rest upon our schools. They are an object worthy of all efforts and sacrifices. We should leave nothing undone which May tend to make them more excellent and more useful. For this, we should gather into our own stores all the hat vests of experience which have, been reaped from other soils. The present is an age of progress. The claimant humanity are now beginning to be heard, as they never were before. The movements in favor of Pearl, of Anti-blavery, of Temperance, of Education, of l'rison Lisciplico, all spring from the came root—a sense of sympathy and brother hood. fa it too.much to say , that the dawn of a rnAnirykt ro nirrdavt.'aw, 'ha ranu restinfil i Bilotti; have pierced the deepest valleys of ignorance ' and sin! Let us not be sluggards in this generous I race. Let us not stand idly on the brink while the tide of improvement sweeps by us, but boldly launch our bark upon the stream." ,:rlThe London correspondent of the Boston Atlas, makes the following reference to Professor Faraday's experiments, to ascertain the connection subsisting between magnetism and light: odn the evening oldie 23d ultimo, Mr. Faraday exhibited the great fact oflus resonrehes—the rota tion of royal light by magnetic force. The fol lowing grand experiment of the evening was sue ass:dully tried: , A pristn.of heavy glaas.was so adjusted between .Ire poles bravery. powerful magnet as to receive the oxy-hydrogen light after it had been polarised, and before it was •depolcrieed by i\ieholl's eye piece. The following • factay demonstrating the magnetism of light, were then exhibited. 1. As to the rofationoct the ray. 1 . 1 pole7isted ray having been extinguished by the , depolarising plate, was instantaneously restored when the mag netic current was sent through the prism through which the ray was transmitted; and conversely, the polarised ray, when, by the common adjustment of the plate, it had been made visible, was extinguish. cd by the force of the current. 2. As to the relations of this electro-tnagnetic power to other laws of polarised light. The rota tion having been established, it was shown, that the direction of the rotation was absolutely dependent on that of the magnetic force. That, while in common circular polarisation, the ray of light al ways rotates in the same direction with regard In j the observer, (to whatever part of the medium his I view may be directed,) it is very different is the state of the ray induced by this new force. When brought under the influence of the magnetic cur rent polarised rays always rotate in a constant di reCtion, with respect, not to the observer, but to the piano of the Magnetic curves. In the course of his remarks, Professor Faraday said it did not seem impossible Id him that thesun'e rays might be found to originate the magnetic forca of the earth, and the air and water of our planet might be proved to bo the diamagnetic media in which this condition of the force was 'canna led Our Surpluo.

I lila, Various iobles ore ;zi,ri, Message of the President. To the Senate of the United States. at Bunting- clurricenrcat—Stability ofpurpose is the vital principle of Republican Government; end a steady adherence to the rules established under the wise experience of those eminent men, whose counsels accotaplished our revolution and national existence, is no less a tribute which we owe to great names, than an evidence of our own discretion. So long ago, es under the Presidency of lames I Monroe, formal notice was given by thin Govern ment to the varicus Courts of Europe, that we could not, and would not, regard with indifference the attempts of any European Power, to reduce to., subjection, by military force, any of the States cr nations lying south of us on this continent. 1 re commend to this Senate, to regard the principles embraced in the notification of Mr. Monroe, as a rule from which we are not to depart. ~ Though I am not aware that any attempts. at permanent military conquest has of late been made, by any European Power, yet the late attempts of the two greatest naval powers of the old world. to force obedience to their will, amongst some of the minor Powers of South Americo, should be regard• ed by us as a warning, that they still claim the right of controling at least a portion of the nations of the new world. . . Our only security against harransing and denote ting wars, in in our naval strength. Great as the expense of this arm of our national defence is, I earnestly hop that the Senate will continue to strengthen its force, and improve its discipline, by wise laws. We ahotild, without delay, place our selves in such an attitude, as to keep our coast dear of marauders in case a war should unhappily over take us. It is hoped that we shall be able eutisfacturily to terminate, in a peaceful manner, tho controversy concerning the country lying west of the Chippe wa mountains, north of the Columbia River, and south of the Russian possessions. It is my opinion that we shall lose nothing by the delays of this ne gotiation; as the citizens of the United Stales are removing to, and settling is the Oregon country :n such numbers, that at the end of ten years, if not molested, they will be able to defend themselves. There is a portion of our brave, hardy and adven turous citizens, who seem to seek after and pursue fatigue, hunger, thirst, and the dangers which envi by nosnie ant() dn in a wild country, as choice luxuries—delicacies not to be found or enjoyed in the Old settlements.' ' :Jo Icrig; co a waver. of these intrepid men, shall encamp round the Lone Elm with each returning month of May, we need entertain no fears for the ultimate fate of any part of Oregon. I recommend the appropriation of a proper sum of money, for the establishment of a snail, between Independence, in Missouri, and the settlements of our citizens on the Wallamet River, with interme diate offices et , Fort Laramie, Fort . Hall, and the Presbyterian and Methodist missions, in Oregon. _ . There is a fine country lying west of the Snowy 1 mountains, in New California, which seems des-1 tined tO be rattled at an early period by citizens of the United-States. Might it not be well lo,eet on foot negotiations, with Mexico, for the purchase of all her territory west of the Chippeway mountain., as far south as latitude thirty three, and on the (Jost of the mountains as fur c.Juth as the heed of the Arkansas River. This would giro us possession of the great Salt Lake, and open to our citizens the only practicable wagon, rood to the valley of the Saeramento, by Welker's Pa., ix. latitude 34 north. In pert ofthe.consideration, for the country pro -1 posed to be F:trot:tiled of Mexico, wo might under take, to curb the Comanche otol other nations, along the northern frontier of Mexico. Th is could be effectt;ally done by the armed -force which we • shall be obliged to maintain in the west, for the purpose of guarding the mail to and from Oregon; j as well as to chock the ferocious tribes that hired the 1 , country between the River Colorado of California, and the great mountain range of the Sierra Neveda. The American citizen is entitled to the protection of his government, in whatever pert of our territory he may locate himself. It seems to be necessary that we should secure 1 the possession of that part of the Pacific coast, which I , lies within the latitudes of the U. S., at all points where safe harbours may bo found. Our vast coin [tierce upon the ocean which separates ue from Asia I and the intermediate Islands, will, within the next century, fi ll all the ports on our western border. ISAAC FISHER.
