BEAurx-Thc following is an extract from
Dr. HOwc's address before the Boston Phrenologi-
cal Society, and contains beautiful idea, on a
beautiful subject, beautifully expressed:-~Most
heartily do agree with the sage who said, with
a sigh-"Well, philosophers may argue and plain
men may fret, but beauty will find its way to the
human heaFt,' And it should be so, for so hath
the Creator wisely and kindly ordained it. He
hath vouch safed 70 man the faculty of perceiving
beauty. He hath made the perception a source Of
delight to him, and he hath filled the earth, the
sea, and the skies, with bright and beautiful OBJ
jects, which he may contemplate and admire.
Else, why is the earth, and every thing upon it,
so varied Of form. full of beauty of outline !?
Why not the hills, the rocks, the trees all
squsD? Why runneth not the river canal-like to
the ocean! Why is not the grass black? Why
cometh the green bud, the white blossom, the gol-
den fruit, and the yellow leaf? Why is not the
armament Of a leadcn changeless huel Why
hang not the clouds like sponges in the sky ?
Why the bright tnts Of morning, the splendour Of
the noon, the gorgeous hues Of sunset! Why, in
word, docs the great armament, like an ever
turning Kaleidoscope. at every revolving hour,
present 10 man a new and beautiful picture of the
skies? Icarc not that shall be answered that
ihese and all other beauties, whether Of sight or
sound, are the results Of arrangements for other
ends l care not, for it is enough for me that a
benevolent Cod hath so constituted US, as to enable
us to derive pleasure and benefit from them and,
BY so doing. ne hath made it incumbent upon us
to draw from so abundant a source''
