A Mothers Instruction The following
quotation from an Address Of the Princi-
pal Of the Flushing Institute, Rev. Dr.
Muhenburg, should be laid in the heart
Of every mother.
We are often asked" what kind o.
boys do you want :" To this question
too the theory Of our institution furnish

been blessed with the instructions of pi

child who has been used in infancy to
hear the precepts of heavenly truth in
culcaled in the accents Of maternal love.
Truths thus justified live forever in the
memory. They are interviewer with all
the sensbllltie5 of the soul, They are the
fortress of conscience, not impregnable,
it is true but ndistructable. They fur
nish ;he mind with chords which in later
life seldom fail to vibra,e to the touch
of faithful expostulation. They are an
inextiuguishable spark, which beiog SEEM

dedicated to their Maker under the aus
pices Of a pious and vigilant mother, whose
education we should esteem it ali act of

those of apathy to religion and devoted

Spectacles.-Among all the triumphs Of
fashion over reasonn and commun sense
there is none more ridiculous than the
practice Of wearing for ornament
Formerly perfect physical system was
considered a course Of gratitude; but now
slight defect in the eyes is an inexpress-
lble inconvenience; it affords an apology
for mounting those embellishments upon
the visage.
Formerly, spectacles were the last resort
OF those whose sight was enlebled bv
time; and those young persons who
were obliged from necessity to nut ON
these tokens OF age, were regarded as
peculiarly unfortunate. Mark the change.
We now see them displayed prolusely on
masters and misses in their tesns;-show- te
ing affection in the student, belying the
character of the man of sense, and even
marring the face of beauty.
Shold we, in obedince 10 the dictates of
fashion, reject the natural use of our feet,
and 60 upon crutches, it would be an alb
surdity of similar character to that Of
wearing spectacles, when no natural de-
feet requires their use Peoples Mag.

to Congress as will advocate such re-
form.
Resolved, That we consider the ques-
ton OF the recharier olthe United States
Bank, as decided by the people against
the Institution, SO that it will expire ia a.
bout one year by the original limitation Of
its charter.
Resolved, That we view, with appre-
hension and alarm, the selection o. great
number of local State Banks as deposits
ol the public monies by the present En-
ecutlye department Of tho United States,
controlled by the Executive, whose OIL
GERS are mostly devoted parizans of the
present dominant party, and that there is
reason to fear an allied system Of small
Banks to control elections, reward parti-
zans, aud thus by their patronage exer-
else an undue control over the people and
the Government.
Resolved, That the Hon. WILLIAM
BAILIES has faithfully and ably rep
resented this District in the Congress Of
the United States, and that it is prculiar-
y important to this District and the Com-
monwealth, that gentleman, Of his great
experience IN public affairs, his high char
acter, various knowledge and distinguish
ed abilities, shoul! be elected to repre-
sent us at this tiue.
Resolved, That as no complaints have
been made against the manner in which
the Hon. William BaylieS has discharged
his public duties, but as his course has
met the appreciation, not only Of his own
constituents as expressed by their memo
rial submitted to Congress, but also Of
the whole State, it is due to him, and to
ourselves, and to our fellow citizens out
Of the District, that he should not be
compelled to retire from situation which
he has filled with honor, for no alleged
fault.
