Mr. .9berneihp. Mr.. Abernethy is, without
exception, the mos, celebrated follower OF Ga
len in Europe, Asia, Africa, or America. lie
is unique, peculiar, inimiablt; every body talks
of him-most people abuse him, yet il he
sought after with trembling and wi fear, and
no, without ragerness, and his room is crowd
ed every morning, as his card expresses il,
"from May to October, Sundays aud Thurs
days excepted" How is this Inconsistency TO
be accounted for? We think we can tell. Di
ming once at his hospitable table, lfor hospi-
able il is, and that, too with out os,entation, he
was descanting, with his accustomed eloQuence
upon the advantages OF public education for
bows, when he concluded by saying. "And
what think you Of Ea,on?' think shall send
nv son there to learn manners" at would
have been as well, my dear" responded his
wife, chad you gone there TOO Now, much
as we dislike TO differ from any lady, more es-
pee;ally from lady highly gifted as Mrs.
Abernethy, yet we must, on this occasion, re-
fuse our assen, TO her opinion. Had John Abb
ernethy been polished man We do no, think
that he would have been popular one; indeed,
!, could not be. He would have been :hen one
only Of criuging pulse feeling race, with no
other REGARD for the noble science Of which he
is so distinguished pr ofessor, than its subser
,iency TO his own personal interests. Aberne-
thy and ,oliteness are truly the antipodes Of
each other; bu,, for those sxternal, meretri-
cious. ana artificial acc pisLments, which
after all, are useful in their way, he possesses
Qualities Of so brilliant aud sterling a charac>
ter as TO constitute him diamond, rough e.
nouph, Heaven kuows-but still diamond Of
the very FIRST "wster.
Let US Just trace MIR. Aberne,hy's profession
al career, aud we shall soon see why he is SO
eccentric, and why he is so sought sfler.-
When, as a young practitioner, he first began
that career, his eager and active mind, instead
oil wasting its strength in riot and bebauchery,
was feeding upon the beauties aud wonders Of
the science, TO which he inleuded to devote all
It's powers. AT that time physiology, and its
haudmaiden, surgery, were emerging from the
baraarous empirci,m which had till then cha
racterized them. The Two Hunters were then
teaching and Indicating the mysteries Of Nature
with q bold, unshrlnking, and uniiring hand.
r. iecting with scoin the fusty dogmata Of their
bieo,cd predecessors, they held out to their
Disciples that The study Of Nature, or, to use
Mr. Abernethy's own expression, OF that Gu
rious conc Alienation which exists in all the
works Of Nature" was the true and only safe
puide 10 tina, knowledge which is calculated to
d,pense relief 10 the sick, and comfort 10 the
suffering. One of the most for ward and favor
ed Of the sc disciples was young Abernethy; and
we may easily Judge Of the influence which the
t,lent aud industry Of John Hunter had upon
the young phys,elogist, By the fruits which

THE CONTRAST


THE CONTRASTS
The golden lights had chased the gloom
of midnight far away,
And roses with their rich perfume
In many cluster lay;
The banquet spread, the goblet oright
Flssh'd at the revel call,
And music in her robes OF hight
Hung DER the festival;
Then gather'd round the royal board
A small but princeiy band,
ind gaily was the wine juice pourd
To trusted heart and hand.
.,roam bright the cup! It's brillancy
Shall chase the ssd'oing tear
Foam bright the cup! our pledge snai De
Dreams of an earlier year
Dreams. like the red drop sparkling
For the drinker on its brim,
While tar below lies darkling
The sullen drop for him
We've quaff'd it sll-yet fill tonight
And win the speh again.
And rush the tide of feeling, bright
As rush'd the torrent them"
In vain-in vain young roses rest
As beautiful as ever
But oh the freshness OF the breast
When lost-is lost forever
And eyes are dim and burrows now
Have cradied many care,
And lights fash sunshine on the brow
To wake but shadows there.
Where is the matin minstrelsy,
The spirit flow of Song
When ev'ry wave gushd melody
As brushed in light along'
Fill high the cup! for visions start
Beneath its fcsmy play
But the warm currents of the heart
Oh tell me--where are they
Esch saw the sullen pail
Shrouing the brave and good,
Twas like the cold memorial
BY Egypt's feast that stood
Sadly they turn'd and silently
From the banquet board that night,
And eyes were lifted mournfully
To yon bright Heaven OF light. NORMA;

ASTRONOMH.

Among those natural sciences which have called
forth thr highest powers of the mind, astronomy claims
for herself the most exalted place. The bodies OF
which it treats are of themselves calculated to pre-
possess us in its favour. Their vast and nconceva-
BILE magnitude, their distance almost Infinite
their unaccountabe number, and the rapldity and
regularity of their movements, excite, in ordinary
men, the most intense curiosity,and to minds othgh-
er birth hold out the noblest exercise Tor their pow
erS But While our judgement thus anticipates its
pleasures and triumphs, the imagination discovers
among the starry spheres boundless field for its
creative energies. Drawing its materials from our
own gobe,-from its variety of life and beauty, and
from the condition and destiny of its species,--it
percevcs in every planetary body. world like our
own, teeming with new forms of life, and new or
ders of intelligence and regards it as the theatre of
events whose origin, whose durationand final cause.
must forever be involved in mpenetrabe dar kness.
Advancing beyond our own system, 1t recognizes IN
every twinkine star the central flame ofnew groups
of planets, and pursuing its trace only in one out of
an infinite number of directions it descrles system
beyond system. following each other in endless sue
cession till it returns exhausted in its strength, and
bewildered amid the number, the extent, and the
magniiicence of its creations.
| But while astronomy thus affords to our intelec-
tual nature a field commensurate with its highest
efforts it is fraught with no less advantage to our
moral being. The other sciences, may, indeed, lay
claim to similar influence, for where is the hand
Of skill unseen or the arrangement of benevolence
unfet but the objects which they present to us are
still those of our own subIunary world They are
often too familiar to excite admration.-too much
under our power to command respect,-too deeply
impressed with our own mortality to enforce the
lesson which they are so we'll fitted to suggest. The
|plains which we desoate, the institutions which we
overturn, and the living beings which we tramplt
on to destroy, are not likely to be instruments Of
our moral regeneration. Among scenes, indeed
where man is the tyrant, who can expect him to BIT

DISCOVERY OF AMERICA.
From the National Ga-cttc.

distinguished sauaat of Copenhagen has address
sed letter, containing very curious historical nor-
nation, to gentleman of this city. lie is engaged
in the composition of work on the voyage of dis
coyery to North America undertaken by inhabitants
of the north of Europe, before the time Of Columbus.
He has 10 his hands genuine ancient documents, the
examination of which, he says, leads to the most
curious and surprising results, well worthy in them
selves of fixing the attention of the philosopher and
historian. They furnish various and unquestiona-
BILE evidence not only that the coast OF North Ame-
RIGA was discovered soon after the discovery of
Greenland, towards the close OF the 10th century,
BY northern explorers, part OF whom remained
there and that it was again visited in the tlth, l2th
and 5th centuries, but also that Christianity was
introduced among the aborgines.
In the names of the northern American places,
traces of the Scandinavian descent Of the early set
tiers are found. The documents mentoned above,
supply materials for map of the northern coast OF
America, which will be annexed to the digest and
commentary to be prepared by the writer of the let
ter.
The northern aiventurers had their principal sta
ton at the mouth of the river st. Lawrence and
Gaspe bay is prominent rendezv rus but it is af
hrmed TO be clear from the records that they were
acquainted with the coast much further to the south,
even az far down as the Carolnas. 1t WAS in the
wear 9S5 that Amerca was first discovered by Biaskt
Heriuefsen, but he did not land. In the year 1000
or perhaps earlier, the coast was visited bv Lett,
