The Historical Society Of Pennsylvania, have

the prosecutor OF very laudable design. The first
pages consist of series ot pal Tets relative TO the
Valedictory Address Of President " Washington, in

was the real author oil that composiiion-a fact
which, 10 the eyes Of some perscns had been invol.

in the hand writing OF General fIaniii,on.
Among these papers is long letter from, John

CIRCUs AND RIDING SCHooL.-We take much
pleasure in announcing TO our patrons and the pu-
bic, that the celebrated Mr. HUNTER, the eques-
trian and riding master, has arrived 10 town, and
will in the course of the ensuing week, open Cir
Gus and Riding School, at schaher's, Westminster
Garden. The celebrity of this gentleman and his
well known ability to complete what he under
takes, will ensure him the patronage Of the commu-
nifty.
As an equestrian, and as a teacher Of that art, Mr.
HUNTER is unrvalled, and so well known, that
deem 1t almost unnecessary to call the attention of
the public to the consideration of his merits. At
this season of the year, when general dearth of
amusement prevails among us, it is desirable that
Circus should oe established, where can while
away the tedium of winter nights. The public
have long and loudly called for an establishment Of
the kind, and now that one has been projected, we
trust II it will be patronized in manner which will
realize the ondest expectations of its proprietor
That elegant and useful accomplishment, the ma
nagenent and riding Of the horse, will also be
taught at the Circus, and thus while we derive
amusement from the ring, we gain decided
advantage from the riding school, where those who
wish may be taught to sit to govern and to develop
he native capacities Of that nobest Of animals the

The Typographical execution OF the Memorial
does great credit to the press OF Messrs. True q
Groen, and may be proudly adduced as one Of thu
happest specimens Of tho art. We have not thu
far seen any thing superior TO it it will not shrni
from a rigid comparison with any performance OF

been surpassed by any OF the Typographical produe

SoUTHBRIDGB.--We omitted to mention at the
proper time that communication, post marked
Southbrdge, Mass. and signed "A Recluse" rea-
ched us in the regular course of mail. We have
read the production with much attention, and al
though we are not insensible ofits merits, we must
decline giving il publicity, it appears to indulge
in general and severe personalities. We cannot be-
lie,e that the citizens of Southbridge odous
as the writer would represent them, and fear that
his pen has been dipped in a alice of gall. Our

he is disposed 20 discuss any of the useful sub

fancy. lie certainly appears to be man of talents
and we shall he pleased to hear from him.

the gratitude of her heart, were COL STONE, Of the
New York Commercial, Major NOAH, the Judge OF

Ger, PETER Force, Of the National Journal and
ROBERT WALSH, that Hercules of Letters, who

QUINCY, JOSEPH T. BUCKINGHAM, and Major

Athens, besides other great men, when she kindly
visited Providence and ofcourse mingled with the
Gods Of Rhode-Island. Among others who gained
her special grace and favor, were his Excellency
the Governor, to whom she appropriated page Of
her work, and the Hon. WHEELER MARTIN. who
of all others seemed to gain her good will and graft

interesting man she had ever met with.

BURIAL OF THE REMAINS OF CAPTAIN PER-
RY.--The ceremony Of re-interring the remains Of
Captain OLIVER II. PERR took place at Newport,
last Monday, according to the arrangements pub'
lished in our last. The day was chilly, but not
unpleasant, and the ceremonies of the occasion went
off in manner which reflects much credit on the
citizens Of Rhode Island.
The citizens Of Newport manifested much spirit
and liberality, in contributing the to do ho
nor to the remains of the Hero of Lake Erie, in
which they mot the cordial cooperation and fee
linss of the citizens of Bristol Pawtucket and Prov
idence. The parade and oircu cums.ancc which mar
ked the OCCASION were purely republican, and such
as the usefui life of the noble cheftain merited

ment his too early exit, remember that he lived 70
his country, and added TO his country's greatness.

POLITICAL SoMERsET.--The Boston CONNER
cial Gazete.a paper which has hitherto pursued
course which led its readers and patrons to suppose
il would become the advocate of the present Admin
istIaton, has suddenly thrown political somerset,
and has come out among the most viz ulent and abu-
sive enemies ofMr. ADAMS and his Cabinet. From
that paper Of last Monday, we copy the following
article, which gives foretaste Of the course of con-
duct it will hereafter pursue in relation to the next
Presidency:
In the opinion Of the Editor of the National Jour-
nal, 1t Is very Important that Mr. SCoTT should be
chosen Senator IN Congress. from Missouri in pre-
ference to Mr.. BENTON, the present member. Mr..
SCOTT was induced by Mr.. CLAY to give the vote
OF Missouri at the last presidential election contra
try to the wishes aud opinions Of his constituents ;
and has therefore leave given him. by his fellow cit
liens, to stay at home. But an effort is making by
the political gamblers OF the nation. to secure Mr.
SCOTT seat III tho Senate, where he can act in
support OF the views of the Heir Apparent Mr..
bENToN, 1t seems. is not his man. This intriguing,
hy men high in place 10 the national governme ent,
lor their own personal aggrandisement. with the
Stale legislatures, ls truly alarming and demands
he open aud severe censure Of every friend of State
rights, Of the peoples rights, AMI OF the constitutions
ughts. The same game has been played in YER
mont, New York aud Ohio. Let the Watchmen
on the walls Of our political Zion look 10 it,
The epi,he's Of Her apparent, political game
aers, and intriguers, which are lavishly AMI so
unnecessarily bestowed upon Mr.. ADAMS and the
secretary oi State, come with very i'll grace from
publication like the Boston Commercial Gazette,
y whose Editor, the Rev. ALDEN BRADFORD,
they are uttered.
We regret extremely that the worthy publishers
ofthat paper should have given them publicity
sud that regret is heightened no small degree, by
-eason Of our being personally acquainted with
one Of them, aud are fully ca pabe Of spprecis!ing

ry, and we leave the paragraph to the considers;
tion Of an enlightened and virtuous people. As we
have much to say in relation to this subject, We
shall for the present retire; but before we do so
we will emPhaticaly assert, that whenever the
American people have made ample appropriations
for thesupport oftheir own poor, and made provi-
sion for the education Of their ON ilterats-when
we shall have become happy and comfortable at
home-we shall be proud to behold honest and
virtuous men, using their best endeavors 10 assist
the wretched Of other nations. But until that be
done, let our charity be confined to our own land
We have taken up the subject, under full con-
viction that it is our duty to do So and we shall
pursue it, whenever leisure and inclination shall
allow. We disclaim the entertainment OF hostile
feelings towards any denomination Of Christians,
and profess to be believers in that doctrine preached
upon the Mount by the Holy Nazarene, and would
be the the first TO defend il against the assaults OF
its enemies. But that the Christian code OF
laws, or that the Almighty, sanctions US, when
we distress the distressed" to carry on theolo-
logical crusade, and TO enrich the few at the ex-
pense of the many, we do not beleve-and we re-
cord our dissent to any such unhallowed attempts.

+somctme since we read the following paragraph in
apaper devoted to the causoof Missions:
The Rev. Mr. S----- informs us that he has received
a donation Of twcnty five dollars from Mr. John A.,
a WORTHY but POOR MAN, residing in the town of Rut-
land, Vermont, which cheerully given further the
cause of missions Mr.. A. informed Mr.. s.,
that der make tins donation he had deprived him
self and family othe OF shoes for the last SIX months
besides denying himself and family Of sugar and moasses
the same period What worthy example of pssty,
what zeal the good Lovers Of the Rcdeemer
20 and do likewise "
A worthy example truly This pious Mr.. A.
should have been put in the house of correction and ne
who received the donation should have been put in the
stocks.
tAmong other ingenious methods that are adopted, to
drain the pockets Of the poor and creduous, iodcas
have been established, and hence we daily receive pub-
cations got up under the auspices OF some society," with
The avowed object fappropriasg the nett profits to the
spread Of the Gospel One Of ttese papers is now be-
fore us, in which we find the following paragraph:
"he Of paper has been almost unexampled
md we have now before letter from Reverend Bro
therN ., who says: u have succeeded in gaining you
many subscribers IN this quarter though the people are
very poor. When have found them unable TO take il

companies. Some have, IN the midst Of their anxiev to
promote the good in which you engaged, de-
prved themselves Of The actual necessaries ofc Pre-
sous souls Of such is the kingdom Of heaven compo-
sed'"
We hope the reader will excuse US for not offering any
commen; on this infamous letter. Comment is unnsces-
