Friend Schoch-
Saturday was great day for Easton. II
having been announced that Col. Richard AZ. John
would pay our Borough visit, early in the
afternoon the streets began to present lively ap-
pearance, and every thing gave token that the old
veteran would receive a warm and hearty well
come. A large escort of citizens, in carriages,
proceeded to Bethlehem, where the Colonel dined,
and conducted him to this place On the outskirts
of the town they were Joined by Battalion of
Volunteers, composed of the Democratic Artlle-
rists, Lieutenant Winter, commanding, and the
National Guards, Lieut.. Barnet, commanding,
Captain Reeder having command of the Battalion.
AT this point large number of citizens also joined
the escort. The procession then moved off under
the command CT Captain Yohe, who acted as
Chief Marshal. Col. Johnson was mounted on a
beautiful white charger, and made quite an i'm
sposing appearance as he rode, uncovered, through
the town, receiving and returning the salutations
of the ladies, who lined the windows of the hou-
ses. His fhe, large forehead, SCARED with hon.
orable wounds, his venerable gray head, and his
open and noble countenance, elected the admira-
toa of every one. After having moved through
ahe principal STeetS, Tie procession diteu HI IIoIl
of the Cour, House, where platform had been
erected, and where James NJ. Porter. Esq. on be-
half of the people bid the distinguished man, well
con eio Easton, in neat and appropriate address.
The Colonel responded IN a speech of twenty
minutes length, during which time he rivetted the
attention of his audience by recital of some of
the heroic scenes in which he was a prominent
actor After the reception, he was conducted to
Mrs Whites Hotel where apartments had been
prepared for him; and during the evening he was
called upon by hundreds of citizens from the town
and neghbouring country. At eleven o'clock, the
EaSton Brass Band, gave him Serenade. and
performed some Of their most delightful pieces of
music. Yesterday morning he attended the Pres
byterian Church, and in the afternoon the Ger
man Reformed Church. This morning he leaves
for Wilkes Barre, carrying with him the wishes
o citizens that his life may be prolonged, and
that he may still do much good for his country.
On Saturday evening, we had splendid dis
llay OF Fire Works, iii the Square, under the d.
rection of Jackson, from Philadelphia To night

observed person passing lhrongh door in
front OF her. She at once presented The ps-

When first seen from York, the balloon was
about thirteen miles off, nearly due West. II
appeared TO be approaching directly toward our
town, until the valve was pulled, and il had
fallen considerably. As it fell, it seemed TO find
current that bore it rapidly toward The North.
The spot at which it landed is about North
west OF our borough.
The escape of the gas was distinctly seen
from York; and as the balloon neared the earth
1t had lost its rotundity, and appeared TO the
gazers here to come down heavily, like wet

public the particulars of his voyage York

From DR.. Channing's" Tribute to the Memory
of DR.. Worcester"
D7GSTTy OF TAR0E

He was first settled in a parish too poor
10 give him even scantV support; and he
was compelled to take farm on which he
toied by day, whilst in the evening he
was often obliged to use a mechanical art
for the benefit OF his family. He made their
shoes; an occupation of which Coleridge
has sotneWere remarked, that it has been
followed by a greater number OF eminent
men, than any other trade. By the side of
the work bench he kept Ink g. paper, that
he might write out the interesting tho'ts,
which ne traced out, or which rushed on
him amidst his humble labors. The pre-
JUDGE against manual labor as inconsistent
with personal dignity, is one of the most
irrational and pernicious, especially in a
free country 1t shows how little we
comprehend the spirit Of our institutions
and how deeply we are tainted with the
narrow maxims of the old aristocracies of
Europe. He was a man, uniting great
intellectual improvement with refinement
of manners, who had been trained under
unusual severity of toll. This country
has lost much physical and moral strength,
and its prosperity is at this moment depress-
ed by the common propensity 10 forsake
the plough for less manly pursuits, which
are thought however to promise greater
dignity as we'll as ease.
