LET IT ALONE

To those who reverence the CoGstitu.
lion OF the United States, it must be a
matter o. serious regret, to notice the spi-
Ri OF Innovation which seems at present
to possess SO many of the Members OF our
National Legislature. That glorious in
s,runenl, under which we have lived so
happily, as originally adopted was per-
h,ps as perfect as human hands could make
it, anG il is scarcely less than slight TO the
memory of it's illustrious trainers, and a
sin nearly allied to sscrilege, for our Sem
alors aud Representatives TO be making a
work Of such grave import as that OF pro-
posing amendments 10 The Constitution, an
everyday business in Congress. Look at
ibe Resolutions with this objec, in view,
al present before the two HOuses-how
numerous and mult.form! That there may
be something good in some OF these propn.
sitons, We are net inclined 10 dispute
but a. the sane time we know that our
Constitution is good as At is; and therefore
we are unwilling to trus, the Sheet-anchor
o. our rights and liberties upon the anvils
OF the political tiacksmiiLs. whose ponder
ons hammers continually laid on would
soon reduce il 10 the conscience of mere
cua-Deb. LET 1T ALoNEi

Having been requested by Mr. Arcbi-

tico Canal Lottery, to examine The prin-
ciples on which Lotteries are formed by
The combination of numbers, plan which
he purposes 10 pursue in raising the money
which, he is authorised, by. his contract
with the commissioners, to raise and
having sttentively examined tue princi-
pies on which such Lotteries are formed {;
we have no hesitation in declaring, that,
in our view. the plan is perfectly lair and
correct. We have particularly examined
the. scheme OF bis FIRST class, consisting OF
1850 tickets formed by the combination
OF 80 numbers and find, that The amount
of the prizes which must, OF necessity, be
drawn lbereiu,b by the drawing offs. out oilhe
80 numbers, as. proposed by the scheme, is
Dig, $3.50, which is the amount OF The 1850
tickets at the scheme price of D6 81; con
sequently. no other profit can accrue 10
the said Commissioners, or to Mr.. MIN
tyre, en- the sale of all the tickets in the
scheme, at that price, than the Is per
cent. to be deducted from the prizes.
We are also of opinion, this plan has a
decided preferesce over the old. on &C
count Of The celerily and accuracy OF the
determination oil the prizes II precludes
The possibility Of the commission oil frauds
or mistakes in the drawing, and saves
much waste OF time and expense.

Mr. Eprroa-No individual, who feels

cherished and advanced. Among
80 means the education of youth has

This sentiment has been 100 limited,

,.,o,,s mind is syowedly considered, by
me creed OF many nations. as being ex'
,,,dsd by natural disabilities, from any

notwithstanding the elevation which Chris

s.n,s females as being the parasers. Inc

nroprialed 10 their instruction. Without
further preface, permit US TO express Toe
qualification which we, in common win
large number OF respectable individuals,
syperienced in attending, this morning,
an examination of Mrs. EDaoSD's School.
The pupils acquitted themselves in man.
nor credi,able TO themselves and to their
instructors. The promptness and sccura'
cy of their replies, aitested not only their
diIisent attention TO their studies, but IN.
dicaled, also, the exercise OF thought;
wnhou, which instruction fails to produce
lis mos, valuable effects.
The recitations in grammar were paTtl-
cuarIy interesting the pupils evidently
possessed a thorough knowledge OF the
elements, as well as the power OF readily
applying them to prsctice. Various pro-
bems on the globes were solved. with
great readiness and precision; and u ge-
Ograpby very creditable degree OF pro-
fclency was manifested. The specimens

presented by school, in which the i'm
