had been evincod fef the deceased unfortu-

community at large seemed to be disposed to
offer some consolation to her, who has been
deprived. in her old age, Of young. interest

The feeling cyinced for the family Of the de-

the hour Of her affection and calamity, must
have been exceedingly gratifying to her feel

The performers, who generally volunteered
their services on the occasion, sustained with
much credit the parts assigned them, and whilst
they seemed anxious to please and to be pleas
ed, gave ample evidence Of their respect and
attachment for the lamcnted dead;-for one
who was an honor to the profession, and bade
fair to acquire. at no distant day, that celebrity
and honest fame, the pursuit Of which, ever
occupies much Of the AMBITIOUS and aspiring
mind. On an occasion like this. criticism
might be considered improper and too invidi-
Gus, and this consideration induces us to omit
making any particular reference, to those who

Messrs. EDrToRs: The late Fredericksburg
Jackson address has, IN express terms, asserted
that Mr. Clay, in the election of President by
the House of Representatives, voted for Mr..
Adams, and used his influence TO effect his E.
lection, in consequence Of a corrupt agreement
between him and Mr.. Adams, that, in the event
Of his election, he was to appoint Mr.. Clay to
the Department, of State. This is the substance
of this bold and shameless address.-This is
the ground OIL which the writer's and signers Of
tina, paper have m ade the charge Of corruption
between the Presiden, s. the Secretary Of State.
II will be recollec,ed, that Of all the members Of
Congress who voted for Mr.. Adams, Mr. Clay
is the only one who has received an appoint.
ment from Mr.. Adams. General Van Ranse-
lear's vote in favor of Mr.. Adams, decided the
vote Of the State Of New York. He has not
been appointed to any office by the President.
If he had, it is probable these delicate addresses
would nave charged corrupt bargain on the
General.

Of the Office Of Secretary Of State Is evidence Of

and appointed,in his place Daniel c. Brent, who

Rr him as President. My object in Bringing
to the public recollection this course Of Mr.
Jefferson, is not to charge, or even to insinuate
that he and those he appointed to the Offices
before mentioned, had made corrupt or other
agreement respecting their appointments. Ii
was not then insinuated that Mr.. Jefferson
made these appointments with any corrupt mo-

yes penedict how vain the the attempt to trace
The noble lines that mark'd hear'n-R face:
In vain, the artist NAV exhaust his skill
Ills like the life; but it is l'feless still.
The dark ETHEREAL eye, tho lit with love,
Nav beam with lus,re, butt cannot move:
"The hip of innocence, tn expressive smile,
And all its loneliness unmixed with guile"
There, too, mig 1T glow in natures iov'lcst hue,
And warm the soll-Nay, they might charm cen yo"'
Had YOU ne 'er seen the form the artist chose,
model, from whose light his picture rose.
Perhaps, his fancy felt the inspiring ray,
That FIRST induced Raphael to portray
The ideal beauty. that the poet sings,
The painter tancies, and his pencil brings
The ready means to fix, By light and shade,
Each beauteous form, in tints that neuer fade:
Perhaps he hoped tho poor tn attempt might prove
Tosketch form in all the light oflove.
Ali, why then blame the artists ready thought
To seize the moment, when her fancy sought,
With holy zeal, to scale the mount of God,
And soar to worlds where mortal never trodi
Remember Benedict that form must fade,
How iaea you'd prize the sketch the artist made.
And when the soul has passed the silent grave,
HIS pencils pow'r that lovely form may save,
When that ethereal eye no longer beams,
Nor lights the world with its pure, radent CLEANS;
Yet still that sketch may bear with happy trace
The glow that once fondly lit that face-
The lip of innoc ence, there still may smile
And there alone will spread its Turing vile
While beings, vet to conc, with raptnrous eye,
Der rriue's form, may sweetly rise
To her pure spirit, in it's native Sizes, r. E.

JUDICIAL MISCONDUCT.

A Committee Of The House Of Representa-
tiyes of Pennsylvania, to whom had been refer
red the petition Of sundry citizens Of Dauphin
county, complaining of the official misconduct
Of Samuel D. Franks, Esq President Judge Of
the 18th Judicial district Of that Common
wealth, made report on the 5th instant, which
is concluded as follows:
From the premises, your committee are Of o.
pinion, that the official conduct Of the said Pre-
sident Judge has been immoral and contrary
TO law; that his neglect Of his duties has a.
mounted to denial of Justice; and that he
has been regardless Of his judicial character and
dignity while on the bench: They, therefore,
submit the following resolution.
Resolved, that a committee be appointed to
draught an address to the Governor for the re-
moval Of Samuel D Franks, Esq from the of.
fee of President Judge Of the l2ta Judicial dis.
trict Of Pennsylvania.
The bones Of huge nondescript animal have
been found near the Mississippi river, in Louff-
siana. One Of these bones was 90 feet in length,
8 in width, and weighed upwards Of 1900
pounds. 1t is calculated that this animal, when
living, must have been so feet in length, 20 or
26 in width, about 20 feet in height, and to have
weighed at least 90 tons. The back bone was
l6 inches in diameter, and the ribs feet long.
This animal must nave been, as the account
states, as far transcending the mammoth in
size, as the mammoth common dog.

LECTURES ON G~EooRAPMY. Mr.. EVANS, q
Lecturer Of celebrity and advantageously known in
the principal cities and tow ms on the continent, last
evening closed a course Of Lectures on tho sciences
OF Geography. Astronomy, History, and tho Tides.
at Franklin Hall. to a very fashionable, and gra,ihed
audience.
Since Mr.. EVANS has been with Us, be has given
great satisfaction, and has met with tha. success, 10
which he is certainly entitled. The science on which
he Lectures. is one Of great interest, and the manner
and matter ofthe Lecturer, are peculiarly adapted to
crafty all who give them a hearing. As Mr.. Evans
is about to leave u. We cannot part with him without
wishing him great success, wherever no may 20, and
in the same breath, commend him TO The good sraces
Of distant cotemporarics, and to the citizens Of other
communities.
We learn that Mr.. Evans proceeds from this place
to Newport, Bristol. and Warren. to the good cili-
zens ofwhich places, he IS commended. with an as
snrance, that by attending his Lectures, they will not
onl. afford themselves q rich treat, but secure q de.
gree Of information, which will far outweigh the little
stipend they may afford.

LEVI WOODBURY., OF Nrw-HAMpsHrRr.
There was a time when this gentleman was
Justly a favorite Of ours, and we were ready to
rejoice at his success, and hoped at one day
to see him elevated to some distinguished
post Of honor. But his recent conduct has
been Of so outra geous and scandalous a natuye
$50 opposite TO what it should have been, so.
disgraceful to himself, and so offensive TO his
immediate constituents, that he no longer re-
tains the respect Of his former friends, OF the
world.
He has deceived and betrayed all who have
ever had aught to do with him. land indulg-
ing a hope that future preferment would be tho
reward Of his treachery, he has abandoned all
his well-grounded hopes, and ranked himself
among the venal political trimmers of the day.
He may indeed, receive some elevated place.
as a reward for his forfeited political integrity,
but in the end he will find, that he who has
once deceived his friends, will never again be
trusted. HIS hopes are blasted. and like him
OF old, be has sold his birth-right for q mess
Of pottage."
