An appeal to youth.

There some who distinguished by the
fear of God in their youth; some lsaacs who pre-
fer an evening walk to mediate, to the crowded
avenues of dissipation; some Josephs, whose
image is ga fruitful bough by well;" some
Oavids, who love the harps of Zion, and have no
ear ''for the song of the drunkard," or s'the
mirth of FOOLS" some Timothys, who "from
childhood have known the Scriptures, which is
able to make them wise unto salvation - and
hail you on your early escape from the paths of
the destroyer, on your early separation from a
world, which attracts only to show its emptiness,
and elevates only to depress, on your early union
with the wise and good. Go forth in all "the
beauties Of holiness" honor God and serve your
generation according to his will. Religious.y
occupy the stations which ycu are 10 ennoble, and
form the connections which you are to bless.
"adorn the doctrine of God your Saviour in all
things" Earnestly pursue the glorious course
which you have begun; be not weary in we'll
doing grow in grace as you advance in years;
."abound more and more in knowledge and in all
Judgment" "upprove the things that are excel
lent" and be sincere and without offence till the
day of Christ And what binders any of you,
my young friends, from joining yourselves to the
Lord Weigh the reasoning which you have
heard suspend for while the influence of your
passions, and endeavor to feel the force of the
motives which have been adduced Deliberate,
or rather decide, for there is no time for hesita
ton ''now is the accepted time, now is the day
Of salvation;' the language of the Redeemer is,
"To-day'" Every delay will have you more re-
mote from the God you have to seek; every de-
Law will place more barriers between you and
heaven-every delay will increase your crimes,
your passions, your aversions,-every delay will
diminish the efficacy of means, the period of
divine patience, the time of your probation
While you hesitate you die; While you promise
yourselves years, perhaps you have not days
perhaps the shuttle has passed the loom that
wove thy winding sheet-perhaps, in youder shop
lies rolled up, and ready to be served off, the
piece Of cloth destined to be thy shroud; perhaps
The feet Of them that have buried thy companion
are at the door to carry thee out-Jay.

Mines on Fire. The Pottsville Register states
that the mine of Stees & Oliver, near Pinegrove.
which took fire about month since, continues
burning with increased fury. The vein ia a very
large one, and consequently the couaagration must
prove very disastrous to the proprieto of the land
who reside in Philadelphia. The mine beyond
Newcastle continues burning as usual, and the cra-
tiers upon tho summit of the mountain are increasing
in size and number.

Hail sovereign Of the world Of floods. whose

First dazzes-than enraptures--than o'eraws the

The pomp of Kings and Emperors, in every

Grow dim beneath the splendor of thy glorious

No fleets stop thy progress-no armies bid
thee stay
But onward-onward-onw thy march still
holds its way.
The rising mist that wells thee, as thy herald goes
before,
And the music that proclaims thee, is the thun-
derng Cataracrs roar.
Thy 6adem is emerald green-of the clearest
purest hue
Set around with waves of snowy foam, in spray
of feathery dew
While tresses Of the brightest pearls float DER

And the rainbow lays its gorgeous gems in
tribute at thy feet.

1t may be arrogance in US to add anything to

more poetry than reality in the third stanSa. The

From the Journal Of Commerce.
WAsHINGToN, Feb. Is

~ --SAAA1'N OANi L SO' i u
Mr.. PICKENs from the committee on
foreign relations, made a report in The
house today, on the subject of the cores
pondence referred to that committee, rela-
tive to the burning Of the Caroline and az
rest of Mcleod.
The report (which we cannot publish
on account of its leng,bl produced dcep
immediate, and universal sensation, Il
telE on the house, as Mr.. Adams AFTER
wards said, like clap of thunder, in q
summers day. Still there is noth;no in
the report, which on q careful 3rr1saL
will be found untenabIe in fact, or erat1-
ltous nj position. The truth seems TO be.
that we have wrap ourselves up In false
security, and we now shudder al the LIGHT
of the truth. The report tells plain tale
which he who runs can rcad;-but j. fifs
a veil and dlscloses a dark inapspicious
future
If war should arise between the United
States and Great Britain, it would be no
common war--it would necessarily be a
war of great destruction There would
never be peace until one or the other
party was subdued, exhausted, desolated.
+ The report warns as of the crashing
ambition of England of her power-her
commercial rivalry, &c.
In the debate that followed on the mo-
ton to pfint,-Mr. Granger, of New
York, took prominent and leading part
He stated that the report had not his con-
currence IN the Committee on Foreic,.
Relations, and he denounced it as "a" De-
etar0taon Of War" FIe said it made an
issue upon which Great Britain might
take Us up, and so to war at once He
would not abb the issue, as presented
There were rnany things presented in the
report as causes of complaint against
Great Britain, as 10 which he had 40 in
formation, and in which he had no con-
Germ. He was not for taking up all these
gratuitous issues.
Mr.. PicRens, in his reply, commended
that the report had tendency to the pre-
servation of peace. Il stated facts, boldly
and plainly. Could we secure peace BY
deceivlng ourselves as to facts2 He hap
pened to represent State whose Interests
were peculiarly pacific. He only looked
to war of defence when it might be ue-
cessary. He did not desire debate on
the report his wish was that it might
be laid on the table and printed But the
object In making it, was in part, TO call
the attention Of Congress and the Ameri-
can people TO the necessity of preparations
