But the gentle of all ages, turn their 'kindlier tone when they speak of 'cled, sighing with a sorrowing whisper that his day of life is ; he is almost in the grave ; :hat the grave is but the gate h holds open for his entrance ;slims of rest. Ah, yes! for if he be a godly old man, ho 's grovelling, earth-worm state, the chrysalis of the butterfly, to soar up, up into the of the mid-heaven—up to the rents of the New Jerusalem throne of the great King, Ad heir, Christ, in his loving proclaimed him to be. ass, then, the old man's glorious To join with angels in the sing around the throne, to drink of waters of the river of life, to e fountain of everlasting youth; .d sweetest, and most precious of forever with the Lord.

The ear deaf on earth, shall be open to the ringing of the golden harps on high ; the stammering, palsied tongue shall be loosened, and tuned in harmony to join the everlast ing song of the redeemed. And thou shalt be one of that great multitude which no man can number, of .all nations, and kin dreds, and people, and tongues, which have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Happy old man ! Instead of pitying, let us rather rejoice with thee, and strive so to live that we may share thy future ! The Presbytery of St. Clairsville met at Morristown, on the 16th of June, and was opened with prayer by the Moderator. The Rev. William. M. Ferguson, of the Presby tery of Zanesville, preached the opening sermon, from Rev. i : 5, 6. The Rev. John B. Graham was installed pastor of the church of Morristown. Mr. S. Mahaffy preached the sermon from 1. Cor. ii : 16. Mr. James Alexander gave the charge to the pastor, and Mr. W. M. Grimes, the charge to the people. The following resolution was passed, viz.: "Resolved, That this Presbytery make particular inquiry in reference to the pecu niary means of candidates coming under our care, and those already under our care ; and that those having means of their own, be not recommended to the Board; and that those who are beneficiaries be enjoined to use economy, that the money of the Church may not be unnecessarily bestowed nor improper ly expended. " And that each student be required to report himself at least once a year in refer ence to his success in his studies, and the state of his finances." Mr. S. Mahaffy was appointed to hold a communion in the church of Brownsville, on the Third Sabbath of September. JOHN MOFFAT, S. C. The Presbyterian congregation at Born merset, Pa., would take this method of returning their most sincere and heartfelt thanks, to those kind, Christian friends who have assisted them in the erection of their new church. The congregations at New Alexandria, Rev. A. ',offence, pastor; at Indiana, Rev. A. M'llwain, pastor; and the congregation at Washington, Rev. J. I. Brownson, pastor, have shown their benevo lence in a substantial way, for which we feel deeply grateful. There is still a little more to be raised to liquidate the debt, and we will consider it a very great favor, indeed, if some of our good friends will lend a helping hand. We have perused a letter from President Benson, dated Monrovia, April 13, 1857, and a printed copy of a special message, ad dressed by him to the Legislature of Liberia, at an extra session, commenced April 6th. The object of the latter is thus forcibly stated—" The people of the State of Mary land, in Liberia, having unanimously voted in favor of annexation as a county to the Republic of Liberia, have made a formal ap plication for admission, accompanied by a request to have the name of their county changed from the county of Palmas, as was first requested by them, to the county of Maryland." Great benefits must arise to both governments by this amalagamation. The extent of the Liberian line of sea coast will be extended about one hundred and_ fifty miles, including several important trad ing ports. Now, that Cape Palmas is united on the South, if Sierra Leone could be annexed on the North, an unbroken seaboard front of over seven hundred miles would be secured to the young African Republic. Should a monthly line of steam propellers be institu ted from Norfolk to Monrovia, capable of furnishing comfortable passage to five thou sand respectable people of color every year, Liberia would rapidly grow in numbers and in importance. Her citizens would soon be felt and respected in , the commercial world. The confederation just inaugurated, goes to show that Liberia will model the political institution of the great continent upon whose borders it has been successfully established. What liberty has been and is, to America, it is and will be, to Africa.—Public Ledger. A new project is mentioned" as in course of formation in London for opening up Central Africa as a mart for the sale of the British cheap class of manufactured goods. The suggestion comes from Dr. Livingston, the African traveler. The object of the Company, besides creating a market for the manufactured article, embraces the pro duction of the raw material. Active efforts will be made to promote the cultivation of Cotton. The French are extending their domin ion in Africa. They have lately seized up on the important Territory of Dekker, in Senegal. While the French are establish ing a civilized and enlightened empire in North Africa, the British are accomplishing the same great work in South Africa, and the Liberians on the West, are penetrating the interior from that point.

The Territorial Convention to form a State Constitution, must continue to be an object of great interest to Kansas in particular, and to the States generally. What kind of new partner are we to have in the political fraternity? What will be the principles maintained, and the con duct pursued? What kind of Congressmen and Senators will be sent to rule the nation, of which we all are members—perhaps to give the casting vote in the enactment of the most important laws? What kind of home is Kansas, the large and fer tile, to afford to our sons, and daughters, and neighbors, who resort to her borders Every citizen ha's a deep interest in the question which is now being solved. The special correspondent of the New York Times, gives an apparently in. telligent letter. The following are extracts : We have already heard of the election of twen ty-five delegates to the Convention, all pledged to submit the Constitution to a popular vote. Indeed, the people of all parties in the territory . are well nigh unanimous on that question, and it is believed that the vote on the subject in the Convention will be virtually unanimous. The plan of presenting the subject, which seems to meet most general favor, is this: to make a Con stitution ignoring the slavery question two ccelo, and the best possible in other respects, and sub mit that to a vote of the people; simultaneously with that to submit a separate clause prohibiting slavery from Kansas, to be voted on separately by the people, and thus put the matter finally, defi nitely, and, please God, eternally at rest. - As one of the most singular indications of the recent change in popular feeling in regard to Kan sas, I may state the fact that nearly every Mis souri newspaper which I have seen (and I believe I have seen most of them) and, what is stranger still, every one of those from the Kansas border, has strongly indorsed Governor Walker's inau gural, and expressed its determination to lend all its influence to support his policy, and promote his views. From this fact, as well as from the knowledge I have been able to gather from con siderable personal intercourse with the Missou rians themselves, I am left no room to doubt that henceforward a Missouri vote will never be cast in Kansas. The Constitution, I hope, will be a good one, and if so, I believe it will be adopted. If all the people vote, of which I entertain little doubt, Kansas will be made a free State by an overwhel ming majority, and that result will be reached not by Northern votes alone, but, strange to say, by the votes of numerous Southern settlers, whose experience and observation have shown them that the idea of making Kansas a slave State is an absurdity. The New Jersey Pearl Fisheries. For the last few months we have seen, in our exchanges, many statements of the New Jersey. Pearl • Fisheries, principally at Patterson and within a radius of some twenty miles. Large numbers, and some of great value, were being spoken of. One worth $25,000 was said to have been cooked by a shoemaker for his breakfast, and consequently rendered valueless, it being embedded in its native clam. We were a little incredulous, and hence did not trouble Our readers with reports of the wonders. We have, however, reason to believe that there is some little truth at the foundation of the matter. A few pearls hove been found, of a :very moderate value ; but the search for them is an unremunera tive business. Of ten thousand persons who tried the experiment, very briefly however, only . fifty found pearls of sufficient value to compen sate them. A pearl the size of a pea, is said to be found in about one out of seven or eight thou sand muscles, and about seventy to a hundred muscles may be found in a day, by hard labor, and the pearl may be worth fifteen dollars, and possibly fifty dollars. But the supply of muscles in the Jersey brooks is very limited. Hence neither the dwellers in and around Patterson, nor the country generally, is to be enriched by the New Jersey Pearl Fisheries. And, happily, Jerseymen know a better business than that of seeking after so uncertain a gain. Walker the Fillibuster. This individual has obtained much notoriety, but not of that character which will fire the am bition of America's truly noble-minded youth. The really elevated mind scorns plunder and op pression, and wantonness in bloodshedding. Walk er's designs upon Lower California, and upon Nicaragua, we always regarded as most iniqui one ; and the connivance of our Government at his departure from our shores with armed bands and munitions of war, and at the successive ship ments of recruits and supplies, was, by no means, exalting to our National Character. Since his defeat and return, his demerits have been more frequently spoken of, than formerly. In a few places, and specially in New York, he has met with some marks of respect, but mostly he has been permitted to pass along without much observation. Many thousands of our coun trymen, as well as of the Central Americans, have fallen by his means. Of the few hundreds of his men, who have lived to return, many seem to have no great respect for his military abilities, and attribute to him a great want of the feelings of humanity. Oskaloosa This flourishing town, in Southern lowa, con tains a population of three thousand five hun dred, and is rapidly increasing. The Presby terian churob, forty feet by sixty, is filled, and an enlargement needed. A railroad from Daven port will be completed in about a year. A Synod. idol College is talked of.' ' ' ' Singular though it may seem, yet it appears to be a fact, the United States are supplying Great Britain with armor. Colt's pistols are very coin- mon in the British army. And now great guns are being sent over the water. " The Robena, an American freight-ship, arrived at Woolwich Arsenal on Saturday, having on hoard six breech•loading guns. manufactured in New York by order of the British Government. Tn eonQequence of rho enormous weight of these guns—namely, seventeen tons each—the vessel was ordered to discharge in the East India Docks. The guns are thence totbe conveyed to Woolwich in lighter barges, and will be landed on the wharf." CINCINNATI!, July 3.—The most disastrous and destructive fire, since the organization of the steam fire department, occurred last night. The fire broke out in the engine room of Johnson, Meader & Co. It communicated to the adjoining eight story brick building and two frame structures owned by the same firm, all of which were destroyed. A number of buildings in the - vicinity were in. jured more or less. Three hundred men are thrown out of employ- Ment; one hundred and seventy-five of whom riere in the employ of Johnston, - Meader & Co., and one hundred and twenty-five of Reson. Sev eral persons were injured by the falling of the walls. A number of the most prominent business firms of Philadelphia, give notice that application will be made to the next Legislature of Pennsylvania for the enactment of a general banking law, sim ilar to that of the State of New York, with such modifications as an experience of nearly twenty years in that State may suggest, as essential to the perfect working of the system—the notes to be payable on demand, and secured by deposit of ample collateral security, limited to the loans of this State and of the United States, being such as are esteemed by all the Court's proper invest ments for trust funds in their custody; also by individual liability of stockholders; that the busi ness of banking may be safely left free to the in stincts of , capital as any other business and that under such system, banks will be established only at points where there is legitimate demand for them. The applicants say: "It is hoped the application will receive the favorable consideration of an intelligent Legislature, and that the enact ment of such a law, dispensing with the granting of special privileges to banking institutions, will be the commencement as well of a new era in our legislation, as of the development of the great agricultural, mineral, manufacturing ,and com mercial interests of the State." H. CHILDS, Treasurer RINFI 30.—The Postmaster-General, with the approbation of the President, has selected the following route for conveying the overland mail to California, namely, beginning at St. Louis and Memphis, on the Mississippi River; thence form ing a junction at Little Rook, Arkansas; thence in the direction of Preston to the Rio Grande, at the most suitable crossing of that river to Fort Fillmore or Donna Anna; thence along the New Road, now being made under direction of the Secretary of the Interior to Fort ,Yana ; thence by the best passes through' the best valleys for safe and expeditious staging to San Francisco. The Postmaster-General, with the approba tion of the President, has given the ; contract to John Butterfield, William B. Dinsmore, William G. Fargo, James V. P. Gardner„ Marquis S. Kenyon and Alexander Holland, of New York, and Hamilton Spencer, of Illinois, it the price of five hundred and ninety-five thousand dollars for semi-weekly service, they being the lowest bid ders, and as they will perform four hundred miles more service than the other bidders proposed. JULY I.—The net amount in the United States Treasury, subject to draft, is $20,000,000; of which amount, in Boston there is nearly three millions ; in New York more than nine millions ; in St. Louis, nearly a million ; in Philadelphia, over two millions ; in New Orleans, upwards of three millions, and in San Francisco, a million and a half. THE EXPEDITION TO lITAH.—The military force destined for Utah, will leave Fort Leavenworth on the 15th of July, and reach the military reserve, forty miles from Salt Lake City, about the 16th of October, in sufficient time to make arrange ments for their Winter quarters. Supplies of beef cattle for the army have been ordered to that post, in contemplation of a Winter residence. From these facts it is apparent that nothing will be done this season against the Mormons, the idea being to have everything in readiness to com mence operations next Spring. In all ages and among almost all tribes of men, a beautiful head of hair has been, and still is, re garded as the fairest ornament of the fairest works of the Creator. The patrician dames and damsels of ancient and modern Rome bestowed that attention upon the hair which has added the crowning.beauty to the chef d'cevre of the sculptor and the painter, and no lady, and indeed no gen— tleman of modern times is unmindful of this ex— quisite shield and lovely ornament of the race. To maiden beauty it is the finishing touch ; to manhood it is the symbol and warrant of strength and nobility, to-day as in the days of the patri— archs; indeed, such it always has been and always will be. But unable as we are to withstand the ills of time and life, it often happens that through dis ease and: misfortune we become gray in early life, and bald before we reach the full grace of woman hood or the full stature of manhood. Then it is that however much we may venerate the gray locks and reverence the wisdom of bald heads among the honored remnants of the generation of three score and ten ; we know that our gray hairs are no more venerable than beautiful; while our bald heads are neither the one nor the other, but, on the contrary, are quite the reverse of both, and impose upon us many social and sanitary dis advantages and discomforts. Then it is that the man who can relieve us of the misfortune, and restore the fleecy looks to their original color and growth becomes a real friend and benefactor, by the force of this single exhibition of his genius and skill. And much as we are opposed to empiricism, and empiric, as we instinctively regard the pretensions of every one proposing to accomplish such a miraculous work, until we have seen the triumph of his undertak ing : we nevertheless esteem it a pleasure, resting upon our absolute knowledge of its merits,• to recommend Professor Wood's Hair Restorative as the best article of the kind with which we are acquainted, and one which has done, under our own observation, all that It claims—and it claims everything implied in its name. This article, in short, will restore gray hair to its original color, and add to its growth and beauty wherever any blight or disease has checked that growth, or marred that beauty. This has been proven in our own family within a few weeks, and in numerous other cases related to us, without the knowledge of the proprietor. We have only to add, that this most valuable article is for sale by the proprietor, at No. 312 Broadway.—New York News. Sold by all Drug gists. EAST INDIA COTTON NOB ABIEB:10&—The Liver pool Times states that several hundred bales of East India cotton have been entered at that port to be shipped to New York. This appears to be like sending coals to New Castle ; but this cotton is so very coarse that we have no American cot ton like it, either in poverty of quality or low ness of price ; and it is no doubt exported by way of experiment, for making cheap cotton cord, or coarse bagging. Near ono hundred thousand pounds of wool was parchased in Cadiz, Ohio, during the past week, at prices ranging from forty-five to fifty-five cents per pound. EARN/OMAN'S ENTIRE STOOK. O' MEN AND Bow As it is intended to improve and enlarge our Store-Room late in July, the whole stock of Gents' and Boys' Clothing, Famishing Gonda, Ac., now on hands, will be offered at prices much below the regular rates, with a view of closing out the whole before commencing the improvements. This, it will be observed, is not a mere pretext to get rid of old goods, as everything offered will be found both new and fashionable. But the contemplated alterations would doubtless deface the stock; and to obviate this, it is pro posed to clear out the whole at very low rates, and open the Fall trade with an assortment entirely new.

The steamer Columbia arrived at New York, on the 6th instant, with Liverpool dates to the 24th ult. We give a summary of the leading news:— Great Britatst. The United States steam frigate ./1 iagara arrived at. Liverpool on the 2d, and the shipment of the cable commenced forthwith. The weather has been favorable for the crops. In the House of Lords, on Monday, the Lord Chancellor stated that the opinion of the Law Officer of the Crown had not yet been taken in re ference to the legality of the opium trade in India and China. Lord Panmure, in reply to the question why the contract for the manufacture of several guns of large calibre had been intrusted to Americans, stated that an American gentleman, of the name of Eastbam, had introduced an improvement into the manufacture of heavy pieces of ordnance, and had taken out a patent. The value of the improvement has been inquired into ,by a select committee, which had reported favorably, and in duced the Government to enter into a contract with Eastham to supply six guns of large calibre, and as the invention was protected by patent, the patentee had a right to execute the contract where he pleased. In the Commons Mr. South moved the following resolution. That in the opinion of the House it is expedient that Parliament shall direct im mediate attention to the beet mode of removing the obstacles which impede the application of British capital and skill to the improvement of the productive powers of India. He followed up the resolution with a speech principally advocat, ing the growth of cotton in India. He states that the province of Candish alone, was capable of growing more cotton than was now produced by the United States, and there was plenty of Eng lish capital available to promote the cultivation, if a guarantee were given, that proper facilities would be afforded by international improvements, and better government. It is the boast of parliamentary practice, that the forms of procedure have been so minutely and carefully elaborated through the course of cen turies as to render it impossible that any incident should occur for which a precedent could not be found. The exception is rare, we admit; but it occurred in a very marked manner . on Friday night. Mr. Wilson, the Secretary to the Trea sury, first threw the legislative machine out of its well-worn grooves by volunteering a general view of the great increase that has taken place of late years in all , parts of the civil service. The state ment, which embraced all subjects, from the draining of St. James's-park to the million vote for education, was but too interesting, and the example was irresistible. Instead of settling down to the discussion of one partionlar vote, the members insisted on wandering from one, question to another till motions, amendments, and the form of putting one amendment before another, became so mixed up in confusion, that, as the only means of extrication, the Chairman was compelled to re port progress. On Monday, the Oaths Bill went through com mittee. The amendment intended to exclude, the Jews was lost by a majority of 140 votes, in a House of nearly 650 members. This conclusive ly settles the question, so far as the House of Commons is concerned. The discussion of this Bill has brought out in a more conspicuous manner than' before, the de signs of the Roman Catholics of the country, to disturb the settlement which was artanged by the Emancipation Act. The Bill proposes one oath to be taken by members of Parliament of all de nominations, except Roman Catholics. To this they plausibly object that it is hard they should be thus singled out from all other members by a separate oath, and they propose so to modify it that one oath may be taken by members of all de nominations. The only obstacle that exists to all classes taking the same oath, is the protest em bodied in the general oath on behalf of the suprem acy of the Crown of England, and her indepen dence, temporal and spiritual, of all foreign powers. That is a protest which no Protestant —we had almost said no Englishman—will be willing to forego. F Ittlee• Shortly previous to the election for Representa tives, a writer, from Paris, thus expresses him self relative to the posting of candidates : We have not yet seen a single name of an oppo sition candidate on the walls. Not that it is open ly forbidden; the dogs have perfect freedom to run about, so long as they are muzzled. Never was a country in so singular a position. The Government, with the Emperor at its head, not only recommends candidates to the country, but throws its whole weight of, influence, its whole mass of cringing officials, its whole power of in timidation, into its side of the balance; it heaps up every imaginable obstacle, tightens the cords, shortens the beam, and then cries, 4, Never was universal sufferage more free, nor its exercise more equitable. You are at perfect liberty to make use.of the opposite scale." Of female influence, in religions matters, the same writer says : The Capuchins, the Dominicans, the Marists, and all the squadrons of the monkish army have their protectresses. Not satisfied with directing the female convents, the girls' workrooms, the in numerable sisterhoods which swarm on all sides, our monks, black, white, grey, brown, blue, Sr.c., &c., are making numerous conquests among the women of the world, who never doff their ball dress except to receive the communion. In the feminine race, monk-mania makes daily frightful progress; the clergy reign, but women govern re ligion. It is painful to see our country invaded by a crowd of monks whose habit and ideas shock the spirit of our time. This mania causes the Church herself to run the greatest danger! Alluding to the popular clamor in Belgium, by which a scheme of the Papal priests was defeated, he remarks : Truly, were we free as in Belgium, our people would do as the Belgians ; we read in one of their papers, "The cries unanimously uttered by the crowd during three days were principally these: Down with the priests! Down with the convents! Down with the Capuchins and all re ligious orders! The people had found an ex pression full of originality to express their feel ing : Down with the skull-cap ! In all quarters all classes of society joined in it, officials, mer chants, landholders. burghers, workmen young men, and old men, and even women. The skull cap (la Calotte) admirably personifies the clergy in the eyes of the msisses. ' One of our French journals says, alluding to the same subject: " The dissension in Belgium is not on political or governmental questions, but on the clerical ques tion; it is the political influence of the clergy; shall the clergy be a state within a state swaying the civil power, or shall, on the contrary, the clergy be independent spiritually, and submit in temporal things to the lay authorities? This is a question of life or death for Belgium, as it is for all nations." Latest By the Arabia, three days' later news is re ceived. The Jewish oath Bill has passed the House of Commons by a large majority. The opponents of the Government, in France, have elected but half a dozen members to the Legisla ture. Ratko.

DIED-At her residence, near Cumberland, Guernsey County, Ohio, on the 17th of June, Mrs. NANCY ALLISON, in the 30th year of her age. She sought the Lord early, remembering her Creator in the days of her youth. Possessing much energy of character and Christian forti tude, she patiently met and bore the trials and perplexities of life ; and having her Christian armor bright, she grappled with the " King of Terrors" without fear, and came off conqueror, and more than conqueror, through him that loved her, and gave himself for her. She sleeps in Jesus. And when the resurrection morn shall dawn, and the trump of the Archangel shall wake the dead, she will come forth to receive a crown of life, and be taken up to those mansions of glory which are prepared for all the followers of the Lamb." K. Diun—At his residence, Muncy, Lyeoming County, Pa., Mr. JOHN Seams, in the 60th year of his age. Mr. Sample became a communing member of the Presbyterian Church early in life. At the age of twenty-eight, he was ordained and in stalled an elder in the Shaver's Creek Presbyte rian church, Huntingdon County, Pa., and in four different churches, within the bounds of which he has successively resided, he was called by the people to serve his Master in the office of Ruling Elder. Mr. Sample was a devoted Chris tian, a man of earnest prayer, and one who always took a lively interest in all that pertained to the prosperity of the Church. As a ruler, he was always ready to co-operate with his pastor and brethren in the eldership, in carrying for ward every good work. It is speaking much to his praise to state the fact, that his feelings were all enlisted in favor of that wholesome discipline which is so necessary for the preservation of the peace and purity of the Church. He was long an active laborer in the Sabbath School, and was ,also a zealous promoter of the cause of tem perance. The prayer-meeting, as well as the 'sanctuary, was to him the loved place of sweet communion with God. Mr. Sample's disease was hemorrhage of the stomach, from which he suffered about two months. Soon after his attack he wrote to his son, the Rev. Robert F. Sample, of Bedford, Pa., that he did not expect to re cover. That son, in a letter to the writer of this notice, furnished some very interesting particu lars concerning the closing scene of his father's life. He says: "For two weeks before his death, he very often expressed a desire to depart and be with Christ. He said he did not wish to have his life extended, but left the issue with God, who would do right. His views of Christ and heaven were remarkably lively and attrac tive, so that he waited impatiently the coming of , the Lord. The morning before he died, he spoke with regret of this, his impatience; he said he ought to wait and suffer, until the Lord saw fit to remove him; and immediately added, all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come. He often spoke of the goodness of the Lord; .the preciousness of Christ; the safety of those who had at the foundation of their hopes the Rock of Ages ; and especially of the pre ciousness of the promises of a Saviour--all of which are yea and amen, and so wonderfully adapted to every condition of life. He wondered that he had ever doubted Christ, since first he felt a Saviour's love ; but he added, we carry with us an evil heart of unbelief, even to the grave. The last words he uttered, , with sufficient distinctness to be understood, were "All will be well ; come, Lord Jesus, come quickly." He gently fell asleep in Jesus, without a groan, a sigh, a struggle;'and as quietly and , peacefully as the sun then sinking to its rest below the Western hills, he passed into the shadowy vale." In a letter to the writer, commenced on his sick bed, and left unfinished, he related an interesting fact, Which he said was known then to no person living. " When Robert F."—the minister men tioned above—" was four years of age, he was taken dangerously ill of inflammatory 'croup, and his case was pronounced hopeless. I went to my closet, then my tan-house, to plead with God on behalf of my boy." He then goes on to state that then and there he entered into a solemn en gagement with the Lord to train up that boy for the Gospel ministry, if God would spare his child and accept the offering. The prayer was heard, the promise was faithfully kept, and the Church of Christ is now enjoying the faithful and suc cessful labors of that son, devoted to God So early in life. Mr. Sample, as*a shock of corn fully ripe, has been gathered into the garner of the Lord ; hav ing done a good work for the Church in his life, and in his death left behind another testimony of the comforting influence of the Christian religion in that trying hour.

From Professor Louis &gassiz : "The Geological Works or Hugh Miller have excited the greatest interest, not only among scientific melt, but also among general readers. There is In them a freshness of conception, a power of argumentation, a depth of thought, a purity oifeeling, rarely met with in works of that °bar mier. . . . But what Is In a great degree peculiar to our author, is the succesiful combluation of Christian doctrines with pure scientific truths " From Rev- Thomas Chalmers, A.D., LL.D.: Since the death of Sir Walter Scott, he (Hugh Miller) Is the greatest Scotchman that is left." From Sir David Brewster, LL.D., F.H.8.: " Among the eminent students of the structure of the earth, Mr. Hugh Miller holds a lofty place, not merely from the discovery of new and undescribed organisms in the Old Red Sandstone, but from the accuracy and beauty of hie de acriptiong the purity and elegance of his compositions, and the high tone of philosophy andreligion which distinguishes all his writings. . . . With the exception of Burns, the uneducated genius which has done honor to Scotland during the last century has never displayed that mental refinement, and slimiest taste, and tellectual energy, which mark all the writings of our author." From Rev. William Buckland, D.D., F.R.8.: Dr. Buckland *aid, at a meeting of the British Associa tion, "I have never been so much astonished in my life, by the powers of any man, as I have been by the Geological descriptions of Rugh Miller. That wonderfulman deseribes these objects with a facility which makes me ashamed of the comparative meagreneas and poverty of my own de scriptions in the r Bridgewater Treatise, which cost me hours and days of labor. I would give my left hand to pos• sees such powers of description as this man; and if it plasma Providence to spare Me useful life, he, if any one, will certainly render science attractive and popular, and do equal service to Theology and Geology." Pram Rev. William Hanna, LL.D.: ' "He succeeded in placing his name in the first rank of British scientific writers and thinkers. His works are char. acterised by a fine union of strict science, classic diction, and enchanting description, which rises, not unfrequently, into the loftiest vein of poetry." Prom Sir Roderick Murchison, F.R.B : Sir Roderick Murchison, in his address to the Geological Society, "hailed the accession to their science of such a writer," and said that "his work (Old Red Santhtone,) is, to &beginner, worth a thousand didactic treatises."
