XVT ISOE Z.JI. AlfSOUS From the Quarterly Register. CHARACTER OF PRESIDENT STORRS. It need nut be said, that a mind which could -truggle to eminence through such an obstacle as corporeal infirmity, almost permanent and sometimes extreme, must be one of high order. For several months while Pres.

Sturrs was at Andover, he could devote but two hours a day to his books but with this disadvantage, he displayed such act- Dacitr for scientific acquisition, that one of bis intimates at the seminary, Rev. Daniel Temple, observed of him, 'his mind is like giant in a weak, shattered cage, and the giant cannot move without loosening all sides of the cage. He was distinguished for steadiness, clearness, and purity of conception; power -of thought, rather than quickness the solid, acute and comprehensive, rather than the splendid and versatile and a philosophical association of ideas, which was the more remarkable, as his literary course had been so often interrupted. First principles in all tilings, he seized with a capacious grasp; his opinions were his own, for he scorned to receive tnem 110m auuioruy, ne would defend them with regular, consecutive argument, and though they were not always true, he would always mane tnem piausioie. In conversation, he expressed his ideas with a chasteness, copiousness, and dignity of style, which are seldom surpassed he disdained to trifle and therefore exhibited an habitual steadiness, energy, and elevation of mind, which proved the rigid discipline-, to which he was subject When speaking of the dead, however, we have most to do with the qualities of the heart, and when speaking of Pres.Storrs, we choose to have most to do with them for in his heart lay his high distinctions.

He not only had much of that diffidence which is constitu tional, but still more of that modesty which is a virtue. He was too retiring. Had he been less so, wo should have known more of bis excellence. He rarely spoke about him self, even about-his religious exercises, and therefore left hU habits of thought to be in ferred from his daily conduct. No one, save he that had taten bread wwi him, could know him, and he that knew him best, esteemed him most.

He often seemed to love to be undervalued by others, and he generally un dervalued himself. Pres. Storrs was characterized by a single ness of aim. He had no prominent schemes of selfishness before his mind, and was there fore never an object ol suspicion or distrust his opposers, whatever cause they may have had for opposition, could not but i'eel that he was disinterested. He held it as his one paramount object, to accomplish the greatest amovnt of good, which was possible during his whole life, lie laid a plan, for his was that species of mind which acted by plan, for the fulfilment ot tins great aim he labored for it in the family, the study, the college and the pulpit, with, an even sober industry all his other aims he subsidized to it by prin ciDle.

as well as bv system. The means of raising himself from the severest despondency which he ever experienced, was, the for mation of the purpose, as a settled and defi nito one. to 6trive for the wjelfare of the world, whatever became of himself. He be gan to live more cheerfully, when he began to live more singly tor otners. lie round his life in losing it, and forgot his own darkness looking at the brightness ot lod.

It is needless to say, that a man of our brother's rich endowments, must have been eminently qualified for the president's chair and the pulpit. Reserved and discreet in his ordinary intercourse, he never lost his digni ty he therefore secured the umtorni obedi ence of his pupils, the respect, and often veneration of his parishioners. At the same time he was so equable, and gentle, and affectionate in his social feelings, that he bound the members of college to him with the cords of love, and while the members of his parish revered him as a guide, they trusted him as a lather. His was a rare comomation ot sweetness of temper with firmness of aulhor- ty; the amiable and commanding. He en tered.

with a livey interest into the circum stances of his scholars, accommodated his instructions to their diversified wants with aptness, and held in his mind a comprehen sive and connected view of the duties which were multiplied upon him When ho preached, and preaching was the employment which best harmonized with his temper, and lrom which he reluctantly de scended to any, even the most honorable of fice, he never stood before his subject, and displayed his own own powers; but always placed his subject before him, and while out of sight himself made the truth shine before his audience, and by cogent argumentation, and fervid feeling, and racy, elevated 6tylc, and distinct, dignified delivery, was often elo quent, and sometimes resistless. His high encomium is, that he was a sincere, lucid, faithful preacher of the truth as it is in Jesus. PAUL AND PLINY. The volume of Sermons by the late Rev. Joseph b.

liuckminster, published at Boston in lcla, contains a discourse on the J-pistle of Paul to Philemon, concerning which he makes the following remark There is a mixture of tenderness and of authority, of affection and politeness, in this short letter, ait earnestness of intercession, united trim a care not to onenu, even dv a word, a choice of phrases the least obnoxious of arguments the most honorable, and of motives the most penetrating, which show the writer to have been a man of great address, as well as of strong affections, and master of a persuasion not easily Afterwards he adds 4 It happens, bv a singular coincidence, that there bas come down to us a letter of Pliny, the courtier, the consul, the man of letters, who lived in the same age with the apostle a letter, addressed to one of his friends upon an occasion precisely similar to this of Paul, interceding for the pardon of a runaway lave. In comparison with that of Paul, how ever, I hesitate not to say, that it is altogether inferior, not merely in affection, in dignity, and the spirit of Christianity, of which Pliny was ignorant, out also in the subordinate beauties of style, and in the eloquence of persuasion. And yet Paul was a Jew of Tarsus, and Pliny, the ornament of an accomplished court and of a literary age. The epistle of Pliny here referred to is the twenty-first in the ninth book. As some of our readers may be gratified by an opportunity of comparing this letter with that of Paul to Philemon, it is here extracted given in V.

ilelmoui translation. To StBI.MA.XCS. Your frcedman, whom you lately mentioned to me with displeasure, has been with me, and threw himself at my feet with as much submission as he could have fallen at yours. He earnestly requested me, with many tears, and even with all the eloquence of silent sor-i LITERARY, MISCELLANEOUS AND MORAL. row.

to intercede for him in short, he con vinced roe, by his whole behaviour, that he sincerely repents of his fault. I am persuaded he is thoroughly reformed, because he seems deeply sensible of his guilt. I know you are angry with him, and I know it is not without reason but clemency can never exert itself more laudably than when there is the most cause for resentment. You once had an affection for this man, and I hope will have again in the mean while, let me only prevail with you to pardon him. If he should incur your displeasure hereafter, you will have so much the stronger plea in excuse for your anger, as you shew yourself the more exorable to him now.

Concede something to his youth, to his tears, and to your own natural mildness of temper; do not make him uneasy any longer, and I will add, too. do not make yourself so for a man of your benevolence of heart cannot be angry without feel ing great uneasiness. I am afraid, were I to join my entreaties with his, I should seem rather to compel, than to request you to forgive him. Yet I will not scruple even to unite mine with his and in so much the stronger terms, as I have very sharply and severely reproved him, positively threatening never to interpose again in his behalf. But though it was proper to say this to him.

in order to make him more fearful of offendinw. do not say so to you. 1 may, perhaps, again have occasion to entreat you upon his ac count, and again obtain your forgiveness: supposing, i mean, his fault should be euch as may become me to intercede, and you to paraon. are wen. 1 T- HON.

MR. EWING. Mr. wing is perhaps the most conspicuous man in this State at the present time, unless Judge McLean be an exception. Although he has been in Congress but a single ses i.

i ne uia ncquireu a nign reputation as a statesman. He is agreeable in his social in tercourse rather inclined to be what some would term His countenance is strongly marked. He is very large and cor pulent, and would weigh, I should judge, more than two hundred. I should think him to be about forty. He is a self-made man a striking exemplification of what a man can attain to by merely personal effort.

He is a native of this State, and was born poor. In his youth, his principal employment was wood-chopping. Being very athletic, he excelled in the Jabors of the axe. At length, when he had become what would be called, a great, overgrown, awkward, brawny young by a fortunate jostle, a desire for an education waked in his bosom he directed hia steps to this institution, where he completed his education preparatory to the study of tho law. In term-time he chopped wood at the College door and in vacation, it was his custom to swing his axe upon his shoulder, and go forth in search of a job; which he would accomplish, and return with fresh vigor at the commencement of the nest term.

In this way he sustained himself while in College, and came out with a constitution as vigorous as when he entered. TI1113 is this hardy son of Ohio climbing his way to the giddy heights of power and I should not be surprised, if at no very distant day, he should plant his foot upon the top-most step in the ascending scale of political distinction. His moral principles, I believe, are regarded as correct. Ed. Ohio Observer.

The Indians. On reading the memorial of these injured people, the remnant of a once great nation, and the rightful owners of an immense territory, but now reduced to a few miserable families, by the oppressions of the white men. we had hoDed that a returning sense of justice would have induced the present legislature to unbind i the heavy burdens put upon them by the unrighteous enactments of their predecessors. liut we tear that our expectations were vain. It seems that nothing is to be done to cancel any part ot the debt of ingratitude which we have contracted and those poor unfortunates, now here sueing for something like justice, are to be sent home with their grievances unredressed, and they again sub jected to the tyranny of a set of Vampyres in uie snape or agents and overseers.

It such is to be their treatment, it is abomina ble. It is adding insult to injury, it is dis graceful to men calling themselves civilized, and should be reprobated by every person who has the least spark ot feeling for his in jured fellow-creatures. let not those guilty of such an acteveragain open their mouths on the subject of Chero kee injustice. Artisan. Yeast.

Good housewives, who take do light in sitting sweet and light bread before their families, feel vexed at nothing more than bad yeast; and they are sometimes put to a great deal ot trouble procuring a good article. The following is said to be a good recipe for making it: Boil one pound of good flour and a quarter of a pound of brown sugar, and a little salt, in two gallons of-water for one hour. When milk warm. bottle it and cork it close, and it will be fit for use in 24 hours. One pint of yeast will make 18 lbs.

Sir John Fielding, the famous magistrate. who was blind, had a pipe fixed from the carriage to the coach box, through which he could converse with the coachman, without being heard by others. When his carriage was stopped by an obstruction in the streets, he inquired of the coachman what kind of a carnage, ccc. occasioned it, and it was his humor then to put out his head, and shout out in his usual peremptory tone, 4 take that cart out of the or 'you, sir, in that chaise, drive This occasioned gTeat astonishment how he who was blind could perceive the cause of the stoppage, and was a source of great amusement to Sir John.

Extraordinary iger. On Tuesday last. an. extraordinary but very absurd feat was performed at the Swan Clewer, between two cripples of that village. It appears that a jealousy has been for some time past exist ing between these worthies as to their respective strength, and as they could only muster two sound legs between them, they after much deliberation, came to the novel determination of deciding which was the best man by seeing which could stand the longest time upon his sound 4 pin' without reatino-.

Both parties accordingly met at the above place at one o'clock, and put themselves in the duck-like posture agreed upon, and in that position they remained till half past nine, when the loser fainted awaV.

Shocking Casualty. Mr. Charles Co hen, a respectable chemist, was killed on Sat urday morning, at bis factory in Hamilton street, while engaged in the preparation of fulminated mercury. He had just thrown additional fuel in the furnace of a water bath, and was in the act of lighting a pan contain ing some of the undried article, when a spark from the fire is supposed to have ignited and a terrihc explosion ensued, he con cussion produced was so great, that a young man who was ascending a ladder in the oth er end of the building, was thrown with con siderable violence to the ground. When he arose, he observed Cohen lying on the floor, and so shockingly disfigured that be could hardly be recognized, lie disengaged the un fortunate man from the rubbish by which he was covered, when Mr.

Cohen uttered piercing shriek, and exclaimed, throw water on my face His light arm was projected through the roof to the adjoining coal yard his left eye was blown from the socket, his brain materially injured, and his body dread fully mutilated. His right arm, which was broken in two places, was amputated by Dr. itogers, but be died about four clock in the afternoon, leaving a wife and three young children entirely destitute. w- lork Standard. In grappling for a lost anchor in the Hud son river, a little below West Point, a num ber of links were brought up, which formed a part of the great chain stretched across the Hudson river during the revolutionary war, to prevent the British fleet from pass ing up to West Point.

The number of links recovered is fifty one they are said to be over a toot each in length, and averaging from thirty to forty five pounds each in weight. They are supposed to have dimin ished one third in size and weight by corro sion, and were raised with difficulty, in consequence of their close adhesion to the bot tom. They were so imbedded with the rocks below, that it took three days hard pulling to bring them up, and large stones adhered to them, some weighing from fifty to twenty pounds each. The fifty-one links weighed loOO lbs. A certificate of these facts is published in the New-York papers, and one of the links has been presented to the JNew-lork IN aval Lyceum.

Paris, Dec. 24j We learn by the Nea politan Journals that, up to the 1st insL, Ve suvius continued to emit flames and liquid fire. There have been two new openings formed in the old crater towards Camaldules and Torre del Greco. One of the currents of lava has taken a direction towards the plain of Genetta, and the other towards Bosco tre Case. The subterranean reports have, however, ceased, and a thick column of smoke issues forth, forming itself at the top into the shape ot a mushroom, and the clouds ot which, carried away by the cur rents ot air, present a very curious appear ance.

Stereohpe From a report pub lished by the Dutch government, it appears that this ingenious art was invented so long ago as the year 1700, by John Muller, min ister of the German reformed church at Ley den. His first method was that of soldering' the types together after the page was com posed but afterward he had plates cast from a plaster-of-Paris, or metal mould, as done at tnis day. lie and nis son published various works printed in this manner. It is extraor dinary that the art was afterwards suffered to fall into oblivion, and was re-invented a century later. See JVotice in Foreign Quar terly Jicview.

The wine vineyard stretched its dreary length along the whole extent of the hill behind the Quinla the stunted vines, tightly attached to short poles, were barely two feet in height, and infinitely less attractive in appearance than a field of goosebury-bushes the vintagers were there the rabble of the province many of them half naked, all them filthy, and most of them ruffianly in appearance to the extreme degree. And the women were worthy of their associates disgusting, dirty, and drunken The bullock-cars were there also; creaking and groaning as the huge beasts moved forward to escape the goad of their impatient driver. And this was a vintage Ephraim Pierce, a colored man, employed as a porter for the steamboat of the New-York Rail Line, found a few days since, in Chesnut street, a bundle of bank notes amounting to five hundred dollars. He car ried the money immediately to the agent of the company, and asked advice as to the proper mode of procedure.

He was advised to advertise it in the papers of the next morning, if those of the afternoon just about to issue, had no notice of the loss. The loss was advertised. Ephraim hastened to the loser like an honest man and the owner was happy in rewarding him with a fifty dollar note. John Tappan, Esq. of Boston, in his late letter to Albany, says 'Nearly all the wine used at the communion table in our country, I have good reason to believe, is made in this country, of the vilest materials; and one dealer boasted the other day of having sold such wine for the sacred purpose, and I have his Secret Prater.

A mental feast is a convocation of rational beings, who come together jiot to feast upon the delusive pleasures ol me oowi, or uie table, which are but mere animal gratifica l.fc. senseless brutes: but to enjoy the sublime and exalted pleasures of intellectual, cultivation and, improvement. A mental feast consists in mind feasting upon rational ideas, in which every guest contributes and receives in proportion to the endowments of the understanding.

In mental feasts we partake of the sub- Iimer bounties of our heavenly Father," and we are thereby made stronger to do his will and to serve him in his spiritual kingdom; and thus we become better prepared for the society of angels, and the spirits of the just maoe peneci in neaven. xei mese cuhvu-cations. then, be alwavs conducted with a direct reference to our dependence upon God, from whom alone cometh every good and perfect gift and let it be the principal concern at all those meetings, that the cause of God may be promoted, and his great name glorified. Our colored female friends, in divers places, have adopted the practice of holding mental feasts. While many of their fairer and more privileged sisters are spending their precious time at the theatre or the ball-room, they, more rational and wise, are cultivating those qualities of the soul which are indispensable requisites for the enjoyment of heaven.

Let the fair daughters of Columbia take example from those, whom too many have regarded as unworthy of their notice and let a more rational system of amusement be universally introduced ia every grade of society, and the angels of God will witness and record the improvement with complacency and delight. ROLAND. 2U By a colored AN ADDRESS Delivered before the Members of the Female Jlfinervian Association Dear Friends, These monthly assem blies, I believe, are not confined to any par ticular class or sex they are to improve the mental condition of all who feel disposed to participate in the knowledge of piety, truth and justice and it is my sincere wish, that through the many exertions which have been made for our moral improvement, pride and prejudice may ere long cease. But it is with feelings of sorrow that I say things of this character too strongly exist among ourselves. With all the persecutions and difficulties which we have had to encounter, we are es tranged one lrom another.

The cruel manner in which they are chained, driven, and sold ike beasts of the field, should ever excite in us feelings of sympathy.

If a man may be as really intoxicated by the use of tobacco, as the use of ardent spirits and the effect produced, is in consequence of the indulgence of a beastly appetite where is the great difference in the criminality The raised tone of feeling in the man very near equal.

MOORE, Philadelphia. Mrs. Moore, I make the following state ment from a hope of being serviceable to those of my fellow creatures who mav be affected as I have been. It is now more than five years since I was first attacked with scrofula. Nearly five years of the time had the advice and 'attendance of some of the most skilful physicians of this city.

Their skill availed nothing: on the contrary, the disease gained ground daily, and, at the time commenced taking your Syrop Les Herbe, was a distressing object to look at, and the pain I suffered was almost beyond endur ance. It is now about six weeks since I first began to take your syrop, and have had about five bottles, and. all pain has ceased and every vestige of the disease has disap- peared. Any person who wishes to be satisfied of the truth of this statement, have on ly to call at my house, and see me, when they will oe satisfied with my present appearance. and I can easily satisfy them as to what my appearance was but a short time ago.

MRS. STAKELY, Opposite 19 Alley. Philadelphia, January 24, 1833. Mrs. Moore, Having received such de cided relief from your Syrop Les Herbe, feel it my duty to make it known to the public.

In the fall of 1831, 1 took a severe- cold, and it settled on my breast. I tried every thing, but without obtaining any relief- continued this way until March last, wheo and after restored as to- aisconunue us use, ana nave had no return of the symptoms since.
