Ter states that, in the settlement of cases
at that place, relative TO the settlement of
an estate in ST. Thomas, document was
produced as evidence, which was written
III Danish, and contained forty foolscap
pages, but there were none there who
could translate it. The counsel in the
case had applied TO two learned Professors
to translate this document without success,
when it was sent TO Mr.. Burritt OF this
town, who labored upon it twelve full
twelve days and gave an accurate trausla'
ton, although it contained many technic-
al, legal, and medical terms. The skill
displayed in the translation excited the
admiration of the Court. and oil capable
of Judging of its merits For this SER
vice Mr.. B. charged Sl9, remarking that
this sum would not be deemed an unreas-
able compensation for the twelve days
spent as that would be "about what any
other blacksmith would charge provided
he could do it with hammer and tongs."

The following simple, yet beautiful illustration o.
the power of forbearance and kindly remonstrance
on the part of those tramp'ed in the dust furnishes
n great lesson to those farther Advanced in lille, who
despise the colored people, because as class, they
have long been hewers Of wood, and drawers OF
water to their depressing brethren. Would thot
the latter cass be wise and repent, like the haugh-
ty white boy recognize the colored people az their
brethren and equals, that all may live together in
this land in peace and brotherly love, thereby nc
knowledging that God has made of one blood, all
the human family und thus evince to the world
their readiness to do others, they would wish
others 10 do to them.

There was long leader in the Courier and En-
quirer Saturday, 3lst ut abiding 10 the Croton
Aqueduct, the debt incurred in It's accomplishment,
and the nviolability OF the financial faith of the en-
plre city; a flourish Of trumpets for the Britannia
steamer TO carry out, as kind of eectrifer on the
hardened tympanum OF the foreign captast-but,
the Courier and Enquirer is the staunch advocate OF
National Bank, OF system of currency that shall
raise prices of all commodities throughout the coun-
try, OF giving false face to things and therefore its
brilliant voluntary will pass in Europe UNDECIDED.
The resanescence of our commercial and financial
system, must come from measures and action of an
opposite nature. II the commercial community of
New York wish to have knowledge of their no.
norabe sentiments published abroad, LIT the mer-
chants call public meeting, giving timely notice,
for the public avowal OF their condemnation of the
system of reputation, and the Unprecedented in
justice of making abankrupt law, retroactive and
let lists remain open in all the banks, the exchange
&c &c. tor the registry of the names of those ho-
nest men--here would be no flourish of trumpets,
but the toscin of honor, which would make itself
heard and understood through both hemispheres.

surrounded by the military, he assembled,

Clay was received at the residence of DIR. Mercer
when the procession disbanded. Every street was
full of the multitude. They hung upon the prolec-
tons OF the houses-they dotted the roofs and filled
the windows with the faces and glittering eyes of
patriots, enthusiasts, and beauties. The ladies'
waved handkerchiefs, and the men clapped hands
and made shouts. Mr.. Clay never had a prouder
reception in any country, and he never can have,
under any circumstances He has been truly car
red on the shoulders OF the hearts of the people!
We pursue him no further. In the evening he
