AMUsEMENTs,-Allp public amusements
are full Of danger to the Christian l;G.
but amongst all those which the world
mas invented, none is more to be feared
than sentimental comedy. 1t is a repre-
sentatlon of the passions so natural and
delicate, that it awakens them, and gives
them fresh spring in the heart; especial
ly the passion of love; and still more so,
when 1t is exhibited as eminently cbaste
and vlrtuons for the more innocent it is
made to appear to innocent minds. the
more are they laid open to its influence.
The violence Of it gratiGes our selflove,
which speedily desires to give rise to the
same effects which we have seen pre-
scented. In the meanwhile, also, con-
science justifies itself by the honorable
nature OF those feelings which have been
portrayed, so far as to calm the fears of a
pure mind, and to suggest the idea that
1t can surely be no violation of purity to
love with an open affection so apparently
rational. And thus, we leave the thea
tie with a heart teemng with the delights
and the tendencies of love; and with the
understanding so persuaded of its limo
cence' that we are fully prepared to re-
celye Its first impressions, or rather to
seek the opportunity of giving birth to
'hem In the heart of another, that we NAV
receive the same pleasures and the same
adulation which we saw 50 we'll dar;a, ,l,
on the stage.-Pescal

NO words can express the deep Thoughts

The dinner in honor of the FIftieth AnnIver-
sary of the Inauguration Of George Washing
ton was highly interesting. General Morgan
Lewis and Col John Trumbul were at the
table-,he one at the right, and the other at
the left of the President of the day, Peter Z.
S,uyvesant. Among the guests were the
Governor of New Jersey, Gen. Scott, Mr.
Senator Southard, and Commodore Claxton.
Mr.. Adams was toasted, and replied in
speech, in which he claimed for tn" era OF the
American Revolution the title OF the - HerG'c he .%
Ace of America, with more justice than the
title of Heroic Age had been bestowed upon
the early History Of Greece. Mr.. Southland
in the course Of an admirable speech upon the
Judiciary and the Chef Justices who had pre-
sided over that august tribunal, did net omit
tn sneak in praise OF the present occupant OF
the seat once filled by Marshall.
The New York and Erie Railroad bill has

STEAMBOAT BURNT.-We' learn from the
Louisville Journal that the steamboat Penn.
sylvania was destroyed by fire at Paduch on
the night of Dist April. She had valuable
cargo for Tuscumbia, Florence, and Knoxville,
and $4,000 in specie for the Decatur Bank.
When the steamboat Norfolk (Which was as.
scending the river\ arrived at the scene OF
conhagratlon, exertions were making to get
the specie from the wreck, and about Slo'o0u
had beon recovered. The portion recovered
however, was in a very damaged condltioh
being partially melted. The hold filed up'
and the P. sunk while the Norfolk lay taets, Hn

Shocking Murder.-We learn that MIR.
Thomas Bradley, Of Anson county, N. c. was
murdered whilst peaceably at work in a
corn field, on the 9Th instant. We for.
bear to state the circumstances, as they
were related to us, from the danger of i'm
properly influencing the judicial investigation
which we suppose will, of course take pace
We have not learnt whether or not the alleg.
ed murderer has been apprehended. The in.
creased frequency Of the crime of murder in
this part of the country is hardly to be Won
dered at, when the facility with which mur-
derers are allowed to escape proper punish
ment, is considered.

as follows.
ut was indeed, glorious performance ola

and of him alone-enrched with the enlarged
views of commanding statesman-embrac-.
ing alternate touches of pathos and Of burning
eloquence. At times the audience were
melted into tears, and at times the church
rang with appluses, which were long and loud
and deep, at its close. We give it as our
deliberete opinion, that more vigorous pro-
duction never emanated from the mind Of its
Llustrious author"

QUEEN VICTORIA,

QUEEN VICTORIA.
The Richmond Enquirer publishes let
ter from Mr.. Stevenson, ouf Minister to
Great Britain, in which he describes the
nerson, appearance. and habi oE:he Queen
Of Great Britain. Mr.. STEVENSON writes
from opportunities OF close and frequent oo'
servation which few persons, even OF the
highest rank in the kingdom, can have had.
He says:
"OfMc Queen suppose YOU will expect
me TO say something, and express my OPP
inon. The press in both cannr'cs give
the most latterng accounts of her beauty
wisdom, &c. Indeed, it is the tlsll'on here
to represent her (as suppose they 90 all
Queens) as something short only olDYin.
i,y. Now, | will toll you very frankly what
! think of her, and have had a fair oPpor.
,unity of Judging. As to her person and
face, they are pretty fairly represented If
many oflhc numerous painings and prints
some of which suppose you have seen.
SuIy's thnl as good and pleasing l. lie-
less as any that has been taken. 1t has
been sent to Philadelphia. None OF them,
towever, do justice to the expression oI
the face. 1t is certainly not The sort |
should call beautiful, but, when lighted up
by animated conversation, the tlcc IS fuIl
ofeypression and sweetness, and strongly
indicative of character. Her man.
ners are bland and unaffected Indeed,
there is a simplicity and Grankness and en-
gaging afabiIity about her quite remarka'
bic for Queen. Another striking thing
is the total absence of all ambitious display
or desire for admiration, which might be
expected from so young person, and she
a Sovereign.
"No one can approach the present
Queen without being struck, not only with
her easy and charming Department., and
that peculiar sofiness Of disposition and tenn
per for which she is so remarkable, but with
the entire self-command and reposc ofman
ner which might be expected 10 guard
Sovereign of more advanced Years and ex-
perience. She has, besides, all the charac-
teristic bon natursl and good temper OF lhe
English. =,

habits, Understand she rises between 8 and
9, breakfasts at 10, devotes herself to busl-
ness till 2, then exercises, generally on
horseback, and that at rapid pace. gong

Judging, having myself been presen; IN one
of her excursions of 80 miles in about
hours and can assure yo1, It she does
nn.;ride like Caesar, or hu' t like Diana, she

riders ever suw.

unders' and, fla despatch comes While she
is at dinner, she commonly rises and at
