with hlm, relative to theological opinions
and positions.
In a word, MIR. Gammell was a liberal
Christisn,-a man who would advocate, as
long az advocacy would avail, the scnti-
ments he entertained, and the doctrines ha
believed himself bound To advance and de-
tend. AS pulpit orator, he was deserv-
edly ranked among the ablest of the de-
nomination ofpeope TO which he belonged;
and was looked up to as the great and ef-
ticient advocate Of the Baptlsts, through
out all their dissentions and disputes; and
IT Is believed, that he was often instrument
tai in eradicating the schisms which some-
times began TO make their appearance in
that peculiar Church. His days and
nights were devoted TO the promotion OF
the best interests of mankind, and vet.
whilst he looked with an anxious eye on
the affairs Of the Church, he was not un-
handful Of the transactions of the State;
and though he was not an active pastlzan
IN any of our political squabbles, he was
not an idle spectator, but looked quietly
on; carefully noted the ing tidings of
tho times, and entertaining, like other
men, his opinions, he tearlessy expressed
them, though IN doing 30, he was void OF
offence. His manner of speaking was
happy and interesting, his action was
chas,e aud dlgni6ed, neither psrtaking of
the extravaganza of theatrical defamation
or tie too studied and repulsive Stiffness
and austerlty of the over. jealous puritan.
His language was always elegant, and
flowed from him with ususual rapidity, and
fell like torrent upon the ear OF the hear
cr; without astounding the senses, or Of
tending them with hyperbole, extravagsne
metaphor or ridiculous simlle. His forte
was persuasion; and few could listen To
hun, without being irresistably led away
BY its mdness. and the unaffected piety
aud sincerity, which evidently pervaded it,
and the heart of him, from whose lips 10
was uttered.
We feel ourselves utterly incapable OF
offering u correct eulogy to the memory OF
this good and singularly talented Clergy
man--a gentleman, whose many virtues
and excelleucies, will long he revcred by
'ociety, and the lovers n religion and gem
uine piety To sum up his excelencies in
n word, it is sufficient to say OF him that
he,
" Though from ain humble stock, undoubtedly
Was fashioned To much honor; From his cradle
Ile wus a scholar, and good one;
Exceeding wise, fair spoken, and persuadings
And, to add greater honors 10 his age,
Than man could give him, HE DIED rEAnNs

Before the departure Of the President of
the United States from this city, he had
suffered from a severe cold. Since his ar
rival at Quincy, we understand, although
only a few days have elapsed, he has be.
come so entirely relieved from his tron-
slcnt indispositlon that not trace Of it is
discoyerabIe. ON the contrary, his coun-
tenance, gait, and whole appearance, indi.
cate the soundcst state Of health, and an
entirely unimpaired elasticity Of frame
The situation OF Quincy is as favourable
TO health as it is beautiful. An undula-
ting landscape, animated by numeroua
flocks and herds made verdant and fruit
ful partly by the hand OF nature herself
and partly by the skill and industry Of the
husbandmon; cheered By variety oftoste-
iul residences, rising amidst emerald
lawns and Gourishlng strawberries and,
moreyer graced by population ever ready,
and ever solicitious to share their enjoy
ments, with their friends, and to throw
open their hosipitabIc doors 10 the stranger
guest, tranquility and iefrsshment, after
the cares and unavoidable vexBtioDs OF
public life, may be found here in oil their
most beneficial influence. Tho house OF
the late President Adams is alike valusble
for its antique aspect, as for the rich asso-
ciot!Ons to which II gives birth. Every
thing within corresponds with the simplic-
ity Of the exterior. The Vandalism OF
modern taste has not been allowed To
make It's destructive inroads here. The
ancient furniture the fine old portraits, res
cning from the destruction Of time the
ineoments towards which the grateful
homage Of race yet unborn will be at
tracted, when those who now gaze upon
them shall be mingled with "the clods
Of the valley" iae whole contour OF the
rooms, aud the sacred character of tho
stiffness which presides there, all eloquent
ly discourse Of days, and things and per-
sons, that have been, and that have passed
away, but which seem, by the combined
process Of memory and Imagination, TO be-
brought back again 10 present existence
in every scene and relic around him who
visits this spot Hero philosophy might
light his lamp: her poetry may tune her
lyre they are the guests suited to tho
dwelling hallowed by genius and virtue
Of the highest cast bot hitber should none
