 Elo0uemt E1trdct.-AmOng the many magnificent passages with which MT. Ad- ams' Euloey of La Fayeue abounds, one of the most touching to an American, IS that where the writer comments upon the reply to Congress. When the American Revolution so happily terminated, and La Fayette was about to return to his own country, the thanks of Congress were ad- dressed to him by MT. Jay. His reply, which was givenswith much emotion, Fur Fnishes MT. Adams with. the following ex- tract, upon which the Eulogist comments with the most eloquent and fervid Patrio- tisn,.
 "May this immense Temple of Free dom," said he, sever stand lesson to oppressors, an example to the oppressed, sanctuary for the rights of mankind; !; and may these happy United States attain that complete splendor and prosperity which will illustrate the blessings of their Goy- ernment, and for ages to come rejoice the departed souls of its founders"
 Fellow-citizens Ages have,passed a. way since these worlds were spoken; but ages ara the years of the existence of na- tions. The founders of this immense Tenn pie of Freedom have all departed, save hero and there solitary exception, even while speak, at the point of taking wing. The praycrrjf La Fayette,is is not yet con-. sunma,ed. Ages upon, ages are still to pass away before it can have it's full accom- plishment !; his spirit, towering over our hearts. in more than mortal echoes, stalks around fIYese walls. E, repeats the prayer, which from his lips fifty years ago was at once parting blessing and prophecy !;
 for, were it possible for the whole human l race, now breathing the breath of life, to be
 assembled within this Hall, your orator
 wonld in your name and in that Of your constituents, appeal to them to testify for your fathers of the past gehsFati6ni, that SO far as has depended upon them, the bles- sing of La Faye.te has been prophecy. Yes! this immense Temple of Freedom still stands, a lesson to oppressors, an ex- anlple to the oppressed, and a sanctuary. 1 for the rights of mankind. Yps with the smiles uf benignant Proyidences the isplendor and prosperity of these united States have Illustrated the blessings of the Government, and, we may hambly iiopeg reioiced the departed souls of its founders. For the past your fathers aud yoU have been responsible. The charge of the fu-, tute devolves upon you and upon your cLil- drcn. The vestal fire offreedoD is in your custody. May the souls of its departed founders never be called tn witness it's ex- ,inction by neglect, nor soil upon the 'purity of it's keepers
 Hint;ng.-The letter of the Rev. o. B.
 Brown, resigning his situation in the Post
 Office, reminds me of an occurrence that
 took place few years ago. A boy who
 had been serving an apprenticeship for
 some time in neighBoring town, returned,
 very unexpectedly, to his father's house, as lthe family were about sitting down to sup-
 per. .John,' said tho old gentleman, r thought you was very well suited with your place. and wish to know the reason why
 you have left it so suddenly9' Why, fath- Eer, said tho boy, liked the place pretty
 well considering, but wasn't going to stay lthere and have MT. - limiting at mo SO
 every day. EIinting at you; said his fa-
 ther, what did he say to yoI T He said
 -he said, why father heskspt hinting at < me- John,' said his father, looking him
 sterhly in the face, tell me instantly what 1 he said to you.' Why, he said replied the boy, stiiat I had told lies about his family, and stolen money out of his desk, and if didn't get out of his house he would kick me out, and so I have conclu- ded not to stay with, him any longer.' .ls !
