The Germans of Boston held It'uteeting, a
short time ago, in honor of Minh°ldt, at which
irvazweirartarasurgrarei=-
phersf nature was nothing. utore_nor, ,less,thart
an Atheist: 'As might hare been expected, this
:was gratifying news to many ;but others did not:
appreciate the, appellation so highly, Ithile some
were indignant that such a stigma shiould- be
-oast on the memory-of a man so distinguished.
The result has been the publication of several
4
Able 'articles in the• courser; inwhich the utter
falsity of the charge is undertaken to be proved
by citations from his - works. 'That Humboldt
was an Atheist in the ordinary acceptation of the
term, we not'for a moment lielieve. Bit the
great defect in his writings is the absence of that
clear and distinct recognition of the .existence;
presence, and government of God; in the war. in
which he is; regarded brEvingeliettf,Chvistians.
He had studied earthly things and visible new.
cies so long, that they occupied his -thoughtstlo
toe almost entire exclusion of Gotland 'Moment, 1
things. What a subject 'of compassion is this
great man, so wise in'the things that Perish, 'but
giving no' evidence of any saving acquaintance
with ihe way of salvation, through Jesus Chriet.
Far better, infinitely 'retie's; is It to know nothing
but jesui n ehriet and him On:Milted, than to have
all Humboldt's knonledge, and yet be ignorant
of the Salim' of sinners Let no one that has
been made wise tiiito salvation, - envy the most
gifted ind the most honored, the one that has
traveled,farthest 'and seen most, _and who has
done pitch to buerpret „the mysteries of 'nature,
but, to whom the Book of, Life is sealed.
The first ,article; in the July number of the ,
Atlantic Monthly, gives sketch of: the life ,and
oho:Teeter of Thomas Penne,' in 'which-every vice

Last week we gave Borne notices of the , Growth
of ;few York in, the past, and some of the proba
bilities with, respect to Halt:aura. • This week ; we
propose to state a few facts connected with its
earliest settlement. , During the sixteenth and
seventeenth centuries, as well as before and since,
the discovery of a North-West passage to: India:
was the great object of, study and enterPrisety,the
most daring and the most accomplished navigators.
To effecit this', , an Englishman, Henry 'Hudson, but'
inthe employ of,the East India Company of
land, set 'sail from the Texel in 1609.' Ott , his
vOyige'he'tonehed at Long Island, and sidled
considerable distance up the river that was after
wards to bear his 'own name.. •The river: and
adjacent Country; were claimed; by iight of die
cOvery; for'llidlalid, l aid the laterable reports of
subsequent 7ragers, va' company ' of Dutch
Merchants to' establish a trading settlement under
the protection of the BMWs-General Holland,
which granted a Tatent' forahmexeltutiveTtrade of
the Hudson River. ; Under these auepioes,',in
1613; a fort was built nearwhere the city of -Al-.
Many now stands, called,Port Orange, in honor of,
the , Prince of Orange,. the ; Washington of Hol.,
land, and a -few trading houses were,erected on
Manhattan Island, where the 'City of 'New York
now, is. - , '3
a1ce..1821 'the city. of New Amsterdam,. so named
after - the Amsterdam' of Holland, began to be
!tilt . ; and in 1823, the foundations of whet id now
the 'city of Albany,'- were laid.'. The Hutch

elMms , cf-his• country .against both the English
and the Swedeson the Delaware, and at length
compelled the Swedes to become-incorporated
with their conquerors. But Charles,lhlAlft fkrr:
getting the friends that hart sheltered Mica in his
long exile, sought every pretext for a - quarrel
with Holland, and in 1664, without respect to the
rights of the occupants, he executed a charter to
his brother, t he Duke of York, afterwards James
which her whole Ter
ritory lying between the Connecticut and the Del
aware. To secure the King's grant; Col. ` Nichols
! was sent out with a fleet annY;'' Stityvesant
Was for makinga vigorous defence, but the pee
.' pie, dreading_ the storming and sacking of the
place,, overruled him, and he weelndttced to
,sign
a treaty of capitulation , on the most faVorable
terms possible., The inhabitants „retained their
estates and. became incorporated with the Eng
lish, and the GoVernor himself remained in the
• colony until the end of, his. life. Thenceforward,
New, Amaterdara, in honor of the Duke -of.Yorki

of old Goceruer Peter Stuyvesant.
The mention of this tree reminds us that just
now a crusade is prociainied in this city' against
the Ailanthus found in many of.the, streets and
private yards. ~ E lome of the Rapers are vieiug with
one unether
. in the hard things said, about this
tree, and , *the many,evils with which it can be
charged. This,attaa has beett,made every, now ,
and•then , for sergal years, but Sill ~the tree .is
planted and grows. .The objectionsmade against
ite.do-not prevent people from planting it, nor do
the:hard and ugly , words Said about it:wither its
t leaves. We strongly';suspect that 'the :desire of
some-nurserymen l to introduce some netrahada
trees, et 'Which.they may .htt'Vre iood'supplji on

The associated press has sent the Soh. J. T.
seat of the war,
to act in the' capacity of reporter. Years, ago,
Mr. Hesdly aegiured conaiderable reP tit

painter of
. ecenes and carnage. , But if „the object
of the associated press had been to, magnify `the

Rev. John C. Abbott would , have beenlheir

some six -DMUS have been mentioned, but

probable that Re*. B.: M. Robertson ; of the
