The dwelling OF Or. Daniel Drake.
I In Gen. Hirrison's letter on duelling, publish
ed some time ago there is reference to the follow
ing passage of serpture for they loved the praise
of men more than the praise of God He had
previously heard discourse this text, in which
there application of Il to the practice OF du-
elling, This incident not only shows bis attention
as hearer Of the word, but the principle which
guided him in penning that letter. Owing TO Pecu-
liar circumstances at the time il was published, the
letter did not make the impression on the public
mind which it ought to have produced. Christisn'
and good citizens cannot but prize it highly a. ,he
sound argument and pointed testimony OF an in'e'i'
gent man and brave and experienced soldier
re publication Of il at this time might do good.

In love as in every thing else, disin-
gcnuity, though it may answer the pur-
pose Of the moment, is ultimately mis-
chievous-olten fatal. 1t may lend to
passion temporary ardour, but it wastes
away the fuel of love. So long as the
blaze, stately as pyramid, ascends, and
its forked point fiickers in the sky, Cupid
carouses, laughs, and dances round the
flames; but no sooner does it descend, and
expiring, hutter round its base, than the
wicked urchin treachously takes wing to
other objects, leaving nothing behind him
but a heap of dying members for lreez-
ing Hymen to SILVER over, and quench with
his tears.

The heart grows chill and dim the eye
Seize the moment sna Oh the treasure!

Barter me not for sordid store,

Than may serve for frugal fare
With some chosen friend to share!
Not for others toll and heap,
But yourself the harvest reap;
Nature smiling, seems to say,
"Gather The rose bndS ehile yoH may"
Learning, science, truth sublime,
Fairy fancies, lofty rhyme,
Flowers ofeXqu site perfume!
Blossoms of immortal bloom!
With the gentle virtues twin d,
In beautious garland bind,
For your youthful brow to-day
Scatter The rose buds wlilc you may!
Life is SHORTCUT not to those
Who early, wisely plu k the rose,

On his wings to fly to Heaven.

Nothing must impede our flight;
Cast we all but Hope away!

recorded in history, was that of John
Mayo, painter to the Emperor Charles Y.
Though he was tall man it is said his
beard was so long that he could tread
upon it. He Twas very vain of his beard
and usually fastened it with ribbon to
his button hole; and sometimes he would
unite it by command of the Emperor,
who took great pleasure in seeing the
wind blow it in the faces Of the cour-

John Woodson, Of Virginia, have formed con-
nexion and issued proposals for publishing, in
December next, new Whig-anti-T Tyler semi

The prospectus is dictated in the " head him,

OUR DUTY AS THE "oFFIclAL ORGAN"


We conceive it to be our duty, as the +" Off
cial Organ" Of the Government, to support the
Administration--not right or wrong, but-so far
as the Administration supports the Constitu-
ton Of the country.
This is our duty--our whole duty--and no.
thing but our duty. And in the faithful dis
charge of this duty, we are but bound, as every
citizen of the country is bound, equally with
the Executive, "to the best Of our ability, to
preserve, protect, and defend the Consultation
Of The United States"--in the language of the
Constitution, and in the spirit of the Constitu-
ton.
This is our duty and this is our position
and thus we define them.
Is the Ohio State Journal answered?
