MRS. PORTER'S
s u MINARY.

0NE year has elapsed since the opening OF this Sc
~ minary, and MRS. Porter, with heartfelt graft
tude, thanks her friends for the steady support they
have given to her efforts, and for their KIND and con-
siderste attention in this arduous undertaking. She
congratuiates herself upon the prospect Of success, in
establishing a School for the instruction of Young La.
dies in the highest branches of education, and obvi'
ating the necessity of parents sending their children
to the Northern Cities for the completion of their stu
dies.
The spirit of improvement is abroad; every public
paner. journal and review teens with plans for the
diffusion of knowledge among the female sex: adj
yertisements Of new Female seminaries, established
upon the most liberal and enlightened views of female
consequence, and the necessity and advantages of de-
education of females, have become a popular subject
of discussion-the object of energetic measures-as
the corner stone upon which is to be reared the struc.
ture for the gradual improvement the whole human
race.

shrinking from Too public a display, the whole
faculty Of this neighborhood, and indeed OF a
large part Of the state, would have gladly and
cordially united in conterring upon HIM a pub
lie dinner, as a mark Of theit veneratlon and
respect. On the presen, occasion, he highest
degree Of cheerfulness and hilarity prevailed,
and it was delightful to witness the readiness
with which the venerable guest partook Of The
animation Of the scene. II reminded one OF the

More than fifty physicians partook Of the din.
ner, at which also many distinguished invited
guests were present.
On being called on for a toast, Dr.. Holyoke
presented, fairly aud legibly written in his own
handwriting, the following sentiment:
The Massachusetts Medical Society, may it
flourish and prosper, may il continue TO inn
prove The Art for which it was instituted, TO
the utmost OF their Wishes, and be the Means,
under Providence, Of alleviatins the Pains and
Evils Of Life, and promoting the Happiness OF
Society, by suppressfng Quackery and render.
ing The Business of the Profession as perfect as
the Nature Of Things admits. And may each
Individual Of the Society aud every other Gem
t!eman here present, enjoy Health and Prospe-
rity, and the pleasing Consciousness that lie
| has contributed somewhat 10 the Advancement
and improvement of the Public Welfare.
A stanza to The tune of Old Hundred was
then sung by all the company, standing. A
great number Of volunteer to.sts, some origi-
nal songs, sc. were given. This symposium
of the faculty seems TO have been altogether
The most unique and agreeable Of It's kind, ever
recorded. II Moliere could have been present,
he would, we are sure, have repented OF his old
transgressious; or agreed that The physicians OF
this age are a very different set Of people from
| those whom he saurized. How it would be
with a collection Of New York Doctors, we
cannot positively asset. But they, too, are
known 10 dwell together in the most periec.
harmony.

THE WAR

The character of the present war between
Russia and Turkey, is without a parallei IN the
combination Of is attributes. II is an evo'u-
ton Of the strongest principles and passions OF
human nature. On the side Of the invaders we
6nG love of conquest, hereditary hatred, and re-
ligion, all Luiiing and urging on the yellow
haired Gisours." On the Other side we dis
cover equally powerful! hereditary animosiiy,
religion, and the strongest CT all principles, SELL
preservation. II is an insult 10 common sense
10 suppose that a contest characterize oy such
traits, can be conducted with miiduess, forbear-
anoe and moderation. In opposition to the I'M
conouer4ble pride Of the Turks, is the over
weening vanity of the Russians; since 1912,
their officers and soldiers be'Ieve themselves
.unequalled, and thai the globe Itself Is not too
vast To be shaded by The mighty wings oil the
Black Eaglc. On the opposite SIDE proud as
The Ottoman is, his pride is matched by his
gallan, cbivalry; he not only fights tor his faith
and his home, bur also for the smile OF his TAR
Hours, and if it is destined that he must tall,
il is because luxury has weakened his strength,
though it could not fleet his courage,
"Planted by valor, and waved against fortune,
Rome's flag enveloped the world IN a shade,
Fen the rude North withits ample TO Ids sporting,
Paused as he viewed it displayed
But when the slow moth o. luxury stealing,
Wasted its strength to decay,
Tempests less fierce than the northern winds pealing,
Blew the bright ruins away"
They are mistaken, however, who suppose
tina, the Turk has lost The courage oil his an
cestors-the spirit is unabaled, l, is: the potcer
which is diminished. Mahmoud IS as firm and
fearless as the illustrious Saladin, but the ma
Terrell Of has empire is not what i. once was; the
crescent is held BY a less steady hand, the sabre
is welded by a less vigorous arm. But des-
pair has lis own energies, and they frequently
effec' miracles. The pride and the spirit OF the
Turk forbid him TO despair until all hope Is
past-ne is yet formidable foe, but should ca
lamitous events urge him to desperation, when
Constantine is crowned King Of the East by his
imperial brother, it will be over the ashes OF an
emDire. n. I. courier.

Phenix gazette. [volume] (Alexandria [D.C.]) 1825-1833, 1828-08-20

The following article is a specimen of the
important matter respecting the Royal Family,
which is occasionally communicated to the
British public ny the newspaper writer's.
Prince George Of Cumberland This playful
scion Of Royalty, TO a quick and scrutinizing
disposition, adds an aptitude for fun and frolie
which is seldom unpleasing in youth. On the
Thursday in the late Ascot meeting he took a
walk on the course, with Townsend from Bow
street. During his peregrination he saw a re-
markable fine little girl, with whose prepos.
sessiug appearance he was much struck, and
going up TO her, he touched her chin with his
hand, and observed, ooh, what a very pretty
miss you are" But this precssity Of admira.
lion for the fair sex, is by no means a novelty
in the members of The gallant House Of Bruins
wick. The Prince wished much 10 see tum-
blers, Sc should like to see them tumble, said
his Highness, I've seen Punch aud Judy, and
they quite pleasedme; but now ! want to see
The tumblers, the lumblers." The young
Prince stole away on several rambles, and one
day he was nearly forgotten, ard was taken of
the course by a gentleman in his pony chaise.

MR EDITOR:
The translation of the 10th Ode, I'd Book Of
Horace in the Phenix Of Saturday has merit
and has faults.
Francis translates
"Sepius vents agitatur ingens
"Pinus;
"when high in air the pine ascends
To every ruder blastit bends"
Your correspondent has it
aHow oft have storms with crashing sound,
Torn up the pine tree from the ground"
Tins uproo,ine what Horace and his translator
Francis, only beads.
-" Informes hyemes reducit
Jupiter; idem
Summovet. Non, 81 male nunc, ct olim
Sic crit"
"winter. tho Spring may flourish now,
Stalks close behind with horrid brow;
And when it closes up its reign,
The blooming Spring rolls back again"
While Francis translates IL, tersely,
eff Jove the Winters horrors bring,
Yet Jove restores the genial Spring."
-"Qrondam ci'hars tacentem
Suscitat Musam, neque semPer arcum
1endit Apollo"
Francis paroles rather than nanslales-
"Apollo sometimes can inspire
The silent muse and wake the Tyre;
The beautiful bow not always plies,
TIL unerring dart not alway flies"
Your correspondent tells us
s.How oft we spend ,vorM oe time,
In spinning out q sheet of rhyme!
And oft the Heaven assisted song
With ease AMI rapture rolls along"
