Among the western members of Congress
there are many men, whose history would be as
interesting romance. Many OF them are men
who have endured poverty and hardship, IN the
most appalling forms, but an ndomtabe energy
has carried them through it all. One Of these
members, Mr.. Casey, Of Illinois, has been more
frequently than any other member, in the pre-
sent Congress, called to the Chair when the
House has gone into Committee of the Whole.
A correspondent Of the Lowell Courier, gives
the following sketch of this gentleman:
'Mr. Casey was born in Georgia and raised
in Tennessee. AT the age Of II, he married.
One year afterwards, with small family, con-
sisting Of wife and one child, while Illinois
was a territory, he set forth, with all he had OF
goods and chattels, slowed in pack about as
big as two bushel basket, his wife by his side,
his child in her arms, his pack on his back, and
on his lips these words :-"Come, wife, have
forty seven dollars in cash, and stout heart;
don't you be down in the mouth, for am going
to be somebody" Twenty three years ago he
landed in the forest of Illinois, where he now
resides. He settled in Jefferson County, about
half way between the Ohio and Mississippi
rivers. There were then but five families with
in five miles of him. ST. Louis, one hundred
miles distant, was the nearest village where
there was store With his own hands ne
built his Log Cabin, and in the sweat OF his
ot~>''~
himself and his family Twenty three years
have rolled away, during which period the
change in the State Of Illinois has been as great
as il has been in the condition of this early ad-
venturer. He was first called to represent his
neighbors in the Legislature Is years ago. he
then went into the Senate. He was immediate
" called to preside over that body, which he
continued to do for four years. He was next
Lieut. Governor of that State for four years,
and after that he was called to the station he
now occupies, eight years ago. During the
whole period of eight years. including one extra
session of Congress, he has never been absent
from the House but day and half, and that
was for the purpose of going TO New York,
journey which (boardng with him at the tme)
persuaded him to make for his health MIR.
Casey's influence in the House is equal TO that
of any other member. Corwin, of Ohio, Profit,
Of Indiana, Crary, Of Michigan, and many other
Western members are like Mr. Casey, seJ-mdde
men.

Immediately afterwards, people began to meet
and cluster in the different streets: and before
eight O'Clock there we're all the signs of prepa-
ration tor an unprecedented ceremonial. The
assembling OF Associations and Fraternities, with
their banners and other lnsgnia-the mastering
oil Military Companies, the running hither and

crowds OF persons on foot ind orseback vending
their way 10 the Western part of the city, &c &c
In entering on Pennsylvania Avenue from tho
Capitol, and proceeding towards the Presidents
House. no one could fail TO be deeply impressed
with the symbols Of mourning which overhung
the doorways and windows Of every house.
None who has not witnessed such spectacle can
imagine It's imposing soleinn,ie. Turning from
this sight. il the sadaened looks Of the muIti,udes
arrayed in black, and many Of them wearing Grape
on the arm or hat, entire stranger might have
discovered that the sympathes Of a People had
been awakened by the loss of distinguished citi-
zen. and that they were paying marks Of honor
10 his memory by those striking observances.
As the day advanced the windows and beIco-

could command view Of the funeral procession,

SCHOOL EDUCATION.
Number 3.

There are few indications of tina, forecast,
which coniemplates the most abiding consequence
of education.
The error to which | wish to point on, in the
present number is, that the young pupils mind
is treated as if it were store house, into which
it is the teachers duty to pack away all sorts of
commodities. The chld's head is laden with
words pu, in through the hatchways called eyes
and cars; and then like ship with full cargo, i,
is set aaoat on the world without compass or helm,
and is driven by every wind, destined to no port,
insensibIe to the value of what was put within il,
and having no power to appropriate 1t to any pur-
pose. The memory of words is stretched TO the
utmost, while the understanding IS scarcely u
wakened to enquiry. Children not duly
taught TO think: there is not that salutary men,
tai exercise, which makes them conscious of be-
Jog the possessors of an instrument of great pow
er. The tendency of education IS too generally
calculated TO impress the child with the sentiment,
that his mind is warehouse, and not an agent.
He considers himself like a shell, passive re-
ceptace for whatever others may choose to put
into it; he feels none Of that inherent energy,
which he can at will put forth his feelers, and
determine questions for itself
Cotton Mather a pupil in the school OF
Memory; Franklin in that of Judgment Inc
literary embellishments of the former, like
the paintings upon she'll, are external and
| specious; looking to The moving power, we see
little else than amen,able imbecility. Franklin
on the other hand, not graced with learning, puts
forth giants arm and roves the world. A child
should not only be taught 10 feel that his mind Is

FOR THE PALLADIUM,

When the tene,s of a religious society at
tackled through the medium of public press, a
brief lejoinder may at least be allowable, in order
that the community, far practicable, may
have an impartial view of the subject. Thus TO
reply, was all that Z wished, in commenting up
on the article from the n. Y. Atlas. Ia attempt
ing 10 do this, quoted the following passage from
Hebrews: "The priesthood being changed, there
is made Of necessity change also of the Law: -
(the in the former quotation was added in print
ing, making it read laws) "This PASSAGE" says
@, "together with the one above, is misquoted''
The reader can take his Bible and examine for
himself: he will find the charge untrue; and he
mus, therefore exonerate me from the "gul,'' Of
"not having examined the subject sBoth,.
says he, "are mutilated.n Here too Q is in error
they condensed but not INITIATED
@ asks: '',cas that Jewish priesthood reak and
unproftable?" answer, Paul says so: "There
is VERIFY says he "a disannulIing of the com.
mandment going before, for The ,reakness and I'm
proftableness thereof" Heb 7. IS The Law,
which ordained the Jewish priesthood made moth
ing perfect; but the bringing in of better hope
did; by which draw nigh &c. Under tina,
dispensaton, the people were not admitted into
the hottest of all But snow hath he obtained
more excellent Ministry. lie is the mediator OF
better covenant TIE reader will find much
profitable instruction on this subject, in the 9TH
and Sh chapters of Hebrews.
Q also enquiries: "Did il not accomplish entire
ly the end for which it was ins,iiuted!'' an
swer: il did, As schoolmaster. it prepared the
Jews for the reception Of this better covenant,
this more excellent ministry, which, when it ap-
Peared, SO ecpsed the former, that it was no Ion
ger glorious because Of that which excelled it
Now whether have found it "dlfficult'' to show
that the rituals of the Jewish priesthood are
"weak aud unprohtable'' for christians, leave
for others TO decide.
My opponent exclams: ssveriiy rs notions of
the ministers Of the Gospel, must be more e,he-
RAIL- (that is, according TO Walker more heaven

so. own | have very exalted opinion OF a
Gospel Minister, who when "necessi,y is lain up !

master: "freeiy We have receired, freely eire.,
