BILE religious exercises. The discourse, by
the Rev. Mr.. Dewey Of New York, the for

spoken of as being interesting and impress

This church is constructed of native gran

pure Gothic architecture it is acknowledged
to be unequalled by any other structure in

and l6e Legislature. Governor Roman will

ARAB BEAuTY.-Among them was one of
the most beautiful girls ever saw, apparently
about twenty years of age. She was of a
dark complexion, eyes black as jet, the inside
of her eyelids was blackened with kohle, her
teeth white as ivory, and her long hair fell
down her neck and over her shoulders behind,
long enough for her to 81. down upon. She
had large silver ear rings, and a silver ring
through her under lip, gently drawing it down
and displaying her fine teeth; through her
hair was passed silver arrow confning her
veil to the top Of her head, that was thrown
back neglgcntly over her shoulders; she was
habted in long blue loose shirt, open at the
breast, her bare arms were covered with
bracelets and nmuets, a string OF beads
wound round her neck, her feet were bare
and two large rings were fastened round her
ancles. She walked as all the Arab women
do, with a grace and beauty of carriage ]
never saw surpassed; nor in simplicity and
elegance Of appearance have ever seen a
fine lady Of Europe, with her jewels and
pearls, equal this plain and simple Arab

General Jackson's Indian policy, the
fruits OF which the country are now

TO reap, commenced to-day's debate. -

eloquent speaker painted the imminent
and alarming danger of that policy,

lation in Indian lands, in several States,
is concentrating upon the western bor-
ders of the United States u powerful

was a most thorough and well deserved
vindication of that Cherokee Chief.

to 1000 persons to be comfortably seated, and
Of containing nearly three thousand persons.
There were besides, lecture rooms and other
apartments. The entire cost of the establish

of the ground, is estimated at $4,000. 1t
