We have noticed but one change among the
Friends, aud that is wholly external. Twenty
or thirty years ago, the real Quaker cut, whe-
Their Of coat or bonnet, and the complexion of
nearly all, were the same, in nearly all. 1t was
literally plain, and literally drab Now and
then rich snuff color would appear gracing the
fine tall form of some venerable frend-but this
was rare Now the cuts vary, as do the coors.
The broad brimm'd hat is now seldom SEEN
The ways are not crowded, by those wearing
those cuts and those colors, now, when the hour
of meeting arrives, or when the Imposing cere.
monies Of the heart and spirit are over; bat
these same ceremonies yet claim the same atfec-
tomato attachment, though the uniform OF the
Society has been varied, az We have stated. But
all this is external. the great moral texture re-
mains the same. A Friend nov is what Friend
always was-on honest, enlightened, Virtuous
man, practical in his walks in life, useful to him
sell, to his family. and TO society.
We copy the following Just remarks on this
society from the Gloucester Telegraph

of this highly respectable class of citizens? Their
experience is invaluable. They haze tried the

they are constantly enjoying the advantages OF it.

"a horrid monster, furious, vast and

1t is stated in a Philadelphia paper, that a
gentleman of the Jefferson school of politics,
is about writing a history parties.
None but fearless and capable man can
write such work as it ought to be written.
But, ifhc execute his task ably and Justly,
the beneftsto the nation may be, viii be- m
lcalculabe.
From his histrcy we may dcduce saving
lesson, and most precious calculations
Il. How the people always manacle them
selves and rivet their own chains
2. That on all emergency, party like an
army may be useful, but when past. that it
ought 70 be disbanded-if men would remain
free.
3 How often, and to what extent. party
chief NAV change his opinions or apostatize,
and how the nation (that is, the partv,) will
lshufflc, face about, and wheel with HIM in all
his tergiversations.
A.. The danger of conferrng monarchca'
power on a Republican chief Magistrate.
Political writers have Truly told MS, that il
England ''t1eQ4n had swallowed the com
mons" and can we have the same cause with
out the same effect?
We are not injurious to see how Mr.. JET
ferson will figure in the work. That grea
: man, who drafted the Declaration of Indie
, pendence, and who since acquired Louslan;
4 i--even he preached anarchy, in 1899, and il
a. 1901, labored to efface his own doctrines, an
