The Publishers deem it unnecessary to COM
ment on the utility of the above work, as it has
already been tested in the principal cities and
towns in the New England, Middle, Western,
and part of the Southern States. Within the
last % months more than $4,000 copies have
been published, great proportion of which are
already in use. The following al the remarks
Of some of the most respectable gentlemen in
this town:
From George Folsom, Esq, Minister of the
Worcester High School Having examined
the 9th edition of Olney's Geography and Atlas
with. reference to its use in the school under
my care, and for that purpose compared its pre-
tensions with those of similar publications,
| am clearly of opinion that for simplicity of arr
rangement, neatness and perspicuity of style.
and fullness, without excess of detail, this COM
pilation is decidedly preferable to any other
with which | have met. The Atlas deserves the
highest praise for the elegance, ingenuity, and
completeness of the Maps, especially in relation
to our own country
Warren Laztu, Teacher ofthe English School,
as also various members of the School Commit
tees OF this town, authorize the publisher in
saying that they also concur in the above ia
vorable and unqualified recommendation of
Olney's Geography and Atlas.

HoRRID. The following furnishes a speci.
men of the degradation of a man when be gives
himself up to the destroying influence of ardent
spirits:
There is drunkard about this village, who
has family of four or five children, and who
is one of the most depraved and miserable VIC
tins of intemperance that is, perhaps, now in
existence. He drags his body round from shop
TO shop during the day, and generally manages
somehow, to get enough whiskey to keep him
intoxicated, while his family support themselves
and him. Not long since, one Of his sons, a
lad OF about l3 years of age, was engaged in
work among machinery, and unlucky get
ting caught in it, was drawn between two
wheels, and nearly crushed to death. On ex-
animation, it was found necessary to amputate
one of his legs at the thigh, which was done.
After this, and while it was yet doubtful wheth-
or the poor little sufferer would survive or not,
the besotted and unnatural father, took the leg
privately, and went and sold ii to a surgeon
tor hirtySecen and a half cents, aohich sum
he expended IN aohiskey, up0n aohicA he car0us-
cd for several days.! Reader, does not your
blood run freezing through all your veins, as
you read these facts Then put your shoulder
to the Temperance wheel, and though you may
not be able to reclaim the incorrigibe drunk
ard, help to guard the rising generation against
the awful ravages Of Intemperance.

At the Court of Common Pleas, at Newport,
last week, principle Of great importance, and
which may lead, we fear, to very irritating dis
cussons, has Just been decided by the Court of
Common Pleas for that county. In case, Benz
Chase, rs. J. G. Borden, which was an action
OF assumpsit for the recovery of money due on
book -account, an exception was taken to Mr..
Bateman Munro, one of the drawn Jurors, as
not qualified to sit trier in this cause. The
ground Of the objection was, that Mr.. j. G.
Borden, the defendant, was a member of Ma
sonic Lodge in the State of Massachusetts,, and
that the Juror objected to was also Mason,
and therefore disqualified by his masonic obi
cations to decide impartially between the par
ties at the bar, one Of whom only was connect
ed with masons. Several witnesses were sworn
and examined as TO the nature of these oaths,
and particularly how far they are reported with
accuracy in an anti-masonic publication, called
" Light on Masonry" The question was then
argued with earnestness and ability, and the
importance of the decision very fully depicted
by Messrs. Pearce and Turner for the obiector /:
and Hazard and Cranston in reply TO it. Az
ter adiourning to deliberate, the Court decided,
we understand that the objection should be
sustained, and the juror Withdrawn. One of
the Judges remarking, in a subsequent stage of
the proceedings. that the juror was taken off,
not because he was mason, but on account of
the nature Of the obligations which were in evil
dence before the Court, and which were con-
sidered to conflict with the oath of the juror,
as posed upon him here.-.Mercury.
