Tus WALrz.-The parpsnus Of the New Yors

ing and picturesque waltz, as immoral unchaste i'm
proper, unchrstian, uRfashisnable, &c. &C. Wscan-
not join in this elamor All the old corrupt faded
broken down rakes unite in denouncing this dance
but such denunciaton comes more from their rotten
hearts than from any other To the pure and
urtuousto the clean of heart and the high princped
OF either SEX every dance is alike The cotllon the
reel, the fandango-every dance, where the sexes
mingle-are liable to the same objections. There 10
no greater improperly in the movements Of the
graceful waltz than in that Of any dance in fashiona
bic life. On the contrary we verify believe that the
waltz is the purest and most fashionable of dances
1t rs generally believed that the original movements
the Hebrews were similar to the waltz, and that
these words in Genesis, = Il, describe the
waltz. The modern Hebrews gave the waltz to the
Germans, and the best walters are still Jewish mai
dens
Let the parsenus rail as they cheese against the
picturesque waltz, it will bloom and flourish among
the heroic and beautiful when the former will return
TO the occupation of their fathers-waitng behind the
tables Of their betters, and helping their guests TO
piece of mutton chop each in order.

Warren AOodsmy.-A cOTFsspOAden, remayks-We regret to learn that this recently AOuTshng and popu. lar school has been discontinued. The causes we are not able precisely to state although we have known that for the last year some misunderstanding has existed between Mr. Howard, the principal, and few of the inhabitants of the village and we conclude MT. II. has retired in consequence. We understand that MT. Howard is to take charge of the Highland GrOUe Gymnasium, located at Fishkil Landing. oppo- site Newburg, N. Y We wish him all the success his talents and experience as a teacher deserve.
 The Senate of New-Yo ork have defeated the small bill law, much called for by the people, by strict party vote-2O to TO- The House had previously pas sed it by vote of93 to 23-and IS said the Govern in favor of its passage, well as all the Bank Commissioners. But the authorities at Washington willed it otherwise and the Senate obeyed. It will, as MT. TaIlmadge said in his place on another occa- sion, produce such peal of indignation from the City to the Lakes as will shake old Tammany from her throne.
 The story in our paper few weeks since of the drowning of twelve or fourteen young men at Eyre mont, Mass, is presume without foundation, as we do not find it confirmed by the papers in Berkshire county.
 MT. Editor-Wil you have the goodness to say in your paper that when any person asserts that more popular man than Gen. Phelps could not have been named for Senator, they are entirely mistaken as there are number of our pure democrds in this vicn ity who not prepared to give him their support at any rate. 4 COnserrotiue ofthe l5kA District
