The farorites OF Genius never leave any foot

the Young Men of New-York TO wait for nc favor

waste no time in fruitless lamentations over Its alb

of discourag ement and despair by which he had

Ncw.YOrk Lyccum Lectures.

Mr.. BURRITT's LECTURE before the New Y ork
Lyceum last evening was an original and powerful
Indictment to universal effort in the great cause OF
intellectual culture and elevation He was labor
ing under a severe cold and hoarseness, which
compelled him to articulate slowly, laboriousy
but The profound attention which given by the
vast cencourse rendered his voice audible through
out the spacious Tabernacle. AS trust this
Lecture is to be more than once repeated, and its
salutary, inspiring truths yet breathed into many
ears, we shall only andoavor to give an idea of its
spirit and purpose.
As the physical life of Man, said Mr.. B. has
been shortened from the age of Methusclub, his
intellectual life has been extended. While the
nine hundred years of existence have been con.
tracted 10 three-score and ten, the lifetime of the
period Whole ages of mental activity and ex-
perience are crowded into years. The mere child
is now familiar with facts which forty centuries
labored to arrive a, il yain-he knows, for in
stance tina, the ear, revolves on its own axis and
around the sun-!acts which the mighty ntcllects
OF Thales, of Anaxagsras, of Ceperncus struggled
eng to dcvelope-which Kepler lived and died to
establish, and the maintenance of which consigned
Calico TO the dungeons OF the Inquistion. The
great error OF our time is superstitious and
paralyzing belief in tho emniPotence of Genius.
Ii has almost become a part OF our system of edu-
cation 10 incucaie belief in set of deities who
WELD caprciou, and despstic empire Man,
| independent of the government of the Creator.
This remnan, OF ancient mythology is in.ted into
The child in It's cradle, and sweetened the taste
of infancy, and it cllngs to him to the grave.
He hear, more OF the goddess Nature than of
him who Numbered from Sinai, q Thou shalt have
no other Gods before me-. Nature IS benign
Nature is wonderful; Nature is beautiful; hers is
the morning spendor and the evening twilight
which rewards the tolls OF the hu.bandnan. Such
| is the lesson continually inculcsted il our age
Nature is every thing, and shuts rom view the
presence and the influence of Him who doeth His
pleasure in the armies OF Heaven and among the
inhabitants OF the Earth
The common idea Of Nature is not more irreve-
rent than that of the collins Genius. Native
Talent, Natural Gifts, Sc. IS pernicious. The
child learns by experience that in the tangible,
common world every thing is achieved By the pro-
per cultivation and use of our physical powers. In
regard the mind, however, all is vague and form
less. The absurd devotion to Classical studies In
our time tends to confuse and confound our percsp-
lions of the great but alnest forgotten truth that
there is royal road to Intellectual eulinence--
Mr. B. illustrated this truth at much length, with
great elearness and beauty, insisting that Man In
tellectral culture and achievement depends him
self, and the means of attaining erinence with

and surprised that the mistake should suppose him
to have misstated the demands of the Catholics
He is at loss to find any ground in his letters fo
such suPposi,ion unless that he has said Bishop
Hughes asked share in the School Fund. But
share does not imply, much less is 1t synonymous
with separation. Cato thinks too justly of the
Catholics or of their leaders not to believe them
capable of making their own demands ineligible,
and highly OF himself TO be the echo of others
Accordingly he has no, only not shown As yet ms

impression is as TO tho actual demands of the
Catholics, but he does not intend 10 show il at al,
except it should be collaterally or Incidentally
What he intends, as he distinctly announced, 70
state, is, the right and the reasons of the claim
OF the Catholics, NOT what they do GemGr4, but
what they are entitled TO obtain; and no they
are 50 entitled. Here the Catholics themselves MAY
ind something to learn. However, these are the
proper questions for legislative consideration in
view OF which Cato writes What masy OF the
Catholics seek, and wha, they wezd be content

their acquaintance enough to know. He there
