thus commanding in fact the whole OF Peru.
In pursuance of this object,'a blockade
was declared in March on the ports OF
Callao, Chorllos, and Ancon, which was
to take effect early in April, and Sqadron
despatched in due time to enforce it. But
on The arrival Of the Squadron off Calao,
the commanders of the U. States, French
and English forces on the station, refused
to acknowledge the blockade. and brought
in under the protection of their batteries all
vessels under their respective flags.
The right to force blockade when for
mally declared, and when the blockading
party has force sufficient to carry it into
effect, is questionable but when there is
not such force, as there certainly was not
in the present case, the question of right
can no longer exist : for of the three ports
under blockade, at no two Of them could
it be enforced at the same time, the squad.
ron being so small that if divided it would
have fallen an easy prey to the naval forces
Of the confederation.
The protection given by the U. States,
French and English forces to merchant
ships of their respective nations has been
such as to render the blockade entirely
void SO far as it regards them. The cont
mcrcial interests of Peru have, neyerthe.
less, been seriously injured by the procla-
nation of the blockade abroad, exciting
in the minds of merchants both in the U.
States, and in Europe doubts as to the
policy of making shipments to her ports

Nor dark clouds intervene.

When sad experience schools the mind,
That fierce storms sleep beneath;
And our frail barque 5 toss'd to and fro,

Breakers and quicl<sands then appear,
Whirlpools of care are often near
Despair blockades the port;
But let RELIGION be our guide,

And wisdom, ever near.
Then shall our barque glide smoothly DER,
What seemed so dangerous before,
And we have naught to fear;
The haven now lies fair in view,

Important discovery. -FdremeN 10 Lh,
types, clocks. We shall do without types,
ink, and the bruin of the graver! NJ. Da-
guerre at Paris, has effected all that paint
ing or printing can achieve, by means OF a
camera obscura, passing the light upon
metallic surface, covered with black com
position; it is upon this black surface that
the solar rays draw in white, more or less
pure, all the obicctsupon which the object
glass (entie) is directed. The shades
from white to black are given by the com
binations of light and shadow. The draw
ing finished, and it is done in a few minutes,
sl>5ht preserving varnish is passed over it,
and the image remains inatfacbable by the
action Of the air or light. The intensity OF
the light is of great Importance in the APP
paratus of M. Daguerre, for M. Bio, as
surcs US that the same objects, drawn at
eight o'clock, at noon, and four O'Clock,
present such differences, that it may be
Judged at what time of the day the opera
ton took place. M. Argo, the celebrated
astronomer, also speaks in the highest terms
of it. !" The operation of M. Daguerre
resembles, a good deal, engraving, after
the black manner. The colors are not
reproduced" says NJ Argo ;"objects are
only represented by the combinations OF
light and of shade but the precision is
beyond anything that can be expressed
1t is 50 correct that the design may be ex-
amined with microscope, and the details
lose nothing of their astonishing neatnoss.
With regard to the oxactness ofthe pro-
portions, il is mathematical" This instru-
ment has decided the important fact, that
moons rays have action on the surfaee Of
the earth by their light and heat. They
produce, when concentrated, large white
spot on the black surface.
All love letters ,nast be written by this
moonlight power.

are not little surprised at the insensibility
Of some men TO the claims of the church.
They suppose that all paid for any church
use, is charity, and that they may exer-
else their own pleasure as to paying or not
paying. The Bible is most explicit on the
point of supporting the ministry; and even
were it not so, when man puts his name
to subscription paper orrents pew, there
is moral obligation assumed, and he is as
much bound to pay what he pledges, as he
is to meet any other engagement. Were
this fully realized, how many Of the church,
es now feeble, would be amply sustained,
and what vexation and pain would many d
minister be spared. How can man who
claims good conscience, sit with compos-
ure in a church when he knows he is occu-
plying place he does not pay for, as he has
promised and how can he calmly face the
minister he deprives of the means Of living
--or does all lie can to 6isheartcn. There
is serious evil in many churches on this
point. Render, have you paid your pew
