NEWSP

There is an eloquent eulogy on news papers in one of the Boston journals. A hint read in newspaper says the writer, ''may influence q thoughtless mother in the education of her children -and new energies may be developed in the child, and new objects given to those energies-slle in her turn becomes q mother, and her children derive a tentold benefit from the original caution that arrested the attention of the grand mother. This may be sof tho stuff that dreams are made off'-but VIC will hope that the newspaper press, with all its errors, abuses, and neglect, does much for human Knowledge and human hap piness. How carelessly we read the newspapersl We glance our eyes oyer the marriages and the deaths, and, sec ing 10 acquaintance there, we think no more af them. let when a depth Of human feeling, what intensity of human sufferings, are conveyed in the tidings We read so coldb!

WOMEN OF BUSINESS

 tie. We copy the following nom MT. Sulliyan's Political Glass Book:
 IL is one ol the most striking defects in our system cf education, that females are so generally uninstructed in the sub stance and forms oi business. hiucil precious tine IS devoted in early lite to some accomplishments, which are for gotten amidst the cares of married life. 1t would he far more useful to deVose that tune to make women intelligent In those affairs iiiii which concern them deepi}, as mothers, widows, and guardians, and iii tic character 0ff e1ecutTix and adj ministsatrix, and frequently in other enl- pioyments which require familiarity with the forms ol business. In Europe It IS not uncommon Tor females to have tiiC CilCA IictisiS SoohtCht VI iiAiPol tet4e poSt ness establishments. They are some times members of mercantile aeuses.- It is tot to be desired that employments of this nature should be common among the American Ladies-they can be much better employed. But considering the frequent and sudden changes in our country, may perhaps be permitted to say, that to know well the nature of cor tracts, and the forms in which they should appear, aid to be able to keep accounts accurately, may be as useful as to be able to speak Italian or French to paint flowers and landscapes; CT con- verse we'll oa the comparative merits oi poets and noyellsts.

LETTER FROM THE DEFY 0F AL- GERS TO CHARLES X. What Charley! are you on your travels like me! Who could think when you t'otber day gave me a lift, 1he new pofice rig, for bit of spree, Would send you, like other Old Charfes, adrift. If my poor advice you will let me advance, As tyraHHieal praHks are the cause Of your tears, think you should go, being kicked out oi France, To reign in my place as the Dey of Al giers. That, that is the place for dotard like you; There wrong is endured without thought of redress Thhera Despot his murderous schemes
 may pursue Without any dread of the Pen or the Press. There the sun always shines upon harsh-
 ness and crimel There deeds may be done which no siib-
 Ieet dare to name; And the genial heat of dear Barbary s
 cline Viii keep the dull bigot's old blood in 3
 flame. The dagger and bow-string you'll find are
 prepared To these add the scourge of the merci- less rod--- And there your Priests gaily, ifhere they are spared, May broil men alive q for the glory of God.o Thensgo, grand .Hoaarque, to my Africa roam, Der slaves born and bred, go to the
 Potentate play, While seek in Europe sung. decent nome, And wish your Algiers, and yourself good Dag.

 Man cannot act more periidious part
 Than use his utmost efforts to obtain
 A confidence in order to deceive.
 Honor and integrity ought to De the leading principles of every transaction in fife. These are virtues highly re- 4uisiie, notwithstanding they are too frequently disregarded. Whatever pur- suits individuals are i'll quest of, since rity ia profession, steadiastness in pur- suit, and punctuality in discharging en- agreements, are indispensably incum- bent. A man of honest integrity, and uprightness in his dealings with his fellow-ereatures, is sure to gain the con fidence and applause of all good men whilst he who acts from dishonest or designing principles, obtains deserved contempt- Dishonest proaceedngs in word or deed, are very offensive to, and unjustifiable in the sight of God and man, even in trivial, but much more so in.consequential affairs. The most per feet uprightness is highly requisite be- tween man and man, though it is too of ten disregarded, and is much more so between the sexes. Every profession of regard should be without dissemb- ling, every promise preserved inviolate, and every engagement, faithfully dis charged. No one ought to make any offers or pretensions to lady before he is, in great measure, certain her per son, her temper, and qualifications suit his circumstances, and agree perfectly with his own temper and way of think ing. Fora similarity off mind and man. ners is very necessary to render the bonds of love permanent, and those of marriage happy.
 < Marriage the happiest state of life
 would be,
 If hands were only joined when hearts
 agree.'
 The man of uprightness and integri- ty of heart, will not only observe the beauties of the mind, the goodness Of the heart heart, the dignity Of sentiment and the 1elfcacy of wit, but will strive to fix bis affections on such permanent endow- ments, before he pledges his faith to any lady.
 He looks upon marriage as business of the greatest importance in life, and d change of condition that cannot be undertaken with too much reverence and deliberation. Therefore he will not undertake it it at at random. lest ile should precipitateiy involve himself iii the greatest difficulties. He wishes to actaconscientlous part, and consequent ly cannot think Notwithstanding t is too mUeh countenanced by custofal of sporting with the affections of the fair sex, nor even of paying his addresses 10 any one, till he is perfectly convinced his own are fixed on just principles.
 All imaginable caution is certainly necessary beforehand: butaiter man's profession of regard, his kind services and solicitations, have made an impress sion on female heart, it is no longer a matter of indifference whether he per severes in, or breaks off his engagement. For he is then particularly dear to her, reason, honor, and justice all unite to nbiige him to make good his engage ment. When the matter is brought to such crisis, there is no retreating. ui1hout manifestly disturbing her quiet

The Good Subscrtber.-sAG Good SUD- scrlber' is one who pays promptly, and does what he conveniently ca4 to ad- vance the interest of the paper ne taxes. The first he will do from scIl-Iuterest, for, fine pays his printer once yearhe saves himself the modification ol acuH. and at the same time enables the man of the type to devote his time and ta- Tents 10 the concerns oi his office, in- stead of borrowing money, writing duns and fretting and scolding about hard times, to the unavoidable neglect of his more appropriate duties. lie will also consult his.own interest, pleasure and profit, by using his influence to extend the circulatioa of his iavourite paper a. mohs his neighbours and by promoting its success in various other ways. By doing this, he enables his printer to make useful and permanent improve ments in his weekly sheet, which he could not do with stinted circulation and it's embarrassments. This is slight and hasty portraiture of " a good sub scriber," and it gives us pleasure to say that We have many such, whom we shall ever hold in grateful remembrance.

GOVERNMENT.

Government is the great organ of ci-
 vi society, and we should appreciate
 the former more justly, il we better un-
 defstood the nature and foundation of the latter. say, then, that society IS throughout a moral institution. 1t is something very different from an assem- blaze of animals feeding in the same pasture. Il is q combination cl ration al beings for the security of Right.
 Right, a moral idea, lies at the very foundation of civil communities; and ilhe highest happiness winch they con fer, is the qualification of moral alice lions. We arc sometimes taught, that society is the creature of compact, and selfish calculation; that men agree to live together for the protection of pri- yate interests. But no. Society is of earlier and higher origin. t is Gods
 ordinance, and answers 10 what is most
 godlike in our nature. The chief ties
 that hold men together in communities,
 arc not selflnterest, or compacts, or pos
 tive institutions, or force. They are [ visible, refined, spiritual ties, bonds of the mind and heart. Our best pow
 CTS and affections crave instinctively for society as the sphere in which they are to find their life and happiness. That
 me- may greatly strengthen and im- prove society by written constitutions,
 readily grant. There is however. a
 constitution which preeedes all of men's
 making, ard after which all others are to be formed;a a constitution, the great
 lines Of which are drawn in our very nature 2 primitive law of justice, and Hac5salde, oud from which all others s!.sFsze tiileii validity aiid worth.
