Nothing 70 plainly evinces a fu-
perior noblenefs of mind as the for
siyenefs of injuries. Nothing 70 nearly
aililnilates us to that being, Whole mott
endearing attribute is mercy. Yet to
forgive him who has for ferries of
years purfued us with unrenitting hol-
tllity, requires a command over the
pailionS which few can ever obtain to
iubdue refentment 70 far as to iuccor
him in dilrels, and to protect him a
gainlf the juf indignation Of others,
lSa degree of charity which, however
ii may exalt him VINO poaedes it, is
poHelied by very few indeed. The
icriptures are full of exhortations to
this amiable duty; but, alas even
the fcriptures can furniih US with very
few infances Of the good effects OF
thefc exhortations.
Accident lately threw into my hands
volume of the Homilies OF St. ohm
Chryloaom, archbilhop of Conitantl-
nople; in which | have met with one
Of the hnea examples OF the exerclie
Of this Chriltian principle that perhaps
to this day has been recorded; con-
veyed in frain Of eloquent declama-
ton, equal to, if not furpaiiing, any
thing which has defended to US from
antiquity.
Eutropius, one of the weakeit. mott
proaigate, and mott wicked OF his
kind, had been advanced by the imbe-
Gil Arcadius to the rank of Father OF
the emperor; and, as Gibbon indlg-
nantly expreiles it, " the lalt year OF
the fourth century was polluted by the
confulfhip of an eunuch and ilave.
A mind unillumed by one iolltary VIZ
tue, but abandonedto every vice, united
nnlimited power,s became the fcourge
of the empire; but the church more
particularly, was the ohle6t of his un-
relenting perlecution. At length, at
ter having in every way abufed his au-
thority, he fell from his exalted ltation
the Object Of univerfal maledi6tion.
To elcape from the rage of the multi
tude and the offended majefy of the
laws, he took refuge IN the archiepli-
copal church Of St. Sophia; availing
himfelf CT that privilege which he had
himielf, by law, aboliihed. The rage
of the ioldiery and populace had rilen
to fuch a pitch that they were ready to
lear him from the altar, when St. John,
tie goldea-momhsd, attended the pulpit
to fave him; which, by the powers OF
his irrehltible eloquence he effected,
1t would be vain prelumption IN the
LAY-CvRArE to hope that he can mi,
tate fuch iyle; yet the reader may
find even his verlion worthy Of a pa,
tient Peruial.
His homiIy: breaks out in bold
sttrain of inveaive againti the fugaci-
oulneiS of power and wealth and al
ter having thus fixed the attention Of
his audience, he proceeds in his dehSn,
frf gaining the favor of the turbulent
by1eeming to joinin their ientiments,
addreliing alternately the victim and
his purifiers.

From a late Krnturky Paper.

ne party OF discovery, under tho
command Of captains Lewis and Clark,
left the mouth Of the Missouri on the
10Th Of May, fa04. An express with
dispatches from their winter quarters.
which left them the 14th April, has re-
turned to St. Louis. BY the express,
letters were received from captain Clark
to his correspondents in Kentucky. A
gentleman from Jefferson county has
obligingly favored the Editor ofthe Ken
tucky Gazette with the following account,
which he obtained from one Of the men
who returned with the express, and from
some Of the party. They fortified them-
selves in November last, on the bank Of
the Missouri, 1909 miles from the mouth
by actual measurement, in latitude ~,

the neighbourhood, and who have been
very friendly to them.--On their pas

beautiful appearance Of the country for
about 200 leagues, or 10 the mouth Of
the river La Plate, which comes in frosl
the, South after which, to their winter
quarters, Il is described not to be so fer

patches, speaks of the opening made by
the river, being about One mile wide
with high cliffs ON each side. The bed
ofthe river occupies abontR fourth part
oft, the remainder Of the bottom Is en-
tirely composed of coarse sand, covered
with cotton wood. This bottom is con-
tinually giving way either ons one side
orthe other, and gaining onthet opposite
side. The cliffs in some places are CO.
vered with red cedar, which, with the
cotton and q few small black ash, trees, IS
the only timber described to be in that
eountry.-From the height, there isnot
a tree or twig to be seen, as far as tho

Out from the river the land goes of per-

streams, the most Of. which had names

have named Floyd's riverto perpetuate
