PRINTERS.

a wrher in the Mobile Herald, who has
been for sixteen years connected with the
public press, holds the following commenda-
tory language of the members of the craft
None who have had an opportunity of judg-
ing will fail to admit the business of his re-
marks. He says:
"In all our experience, and we have WIS.,
tied in that time four different Governments
from the one under which we were born and
educated, we have always found among Prn-
tiers not only more intelligence, but more
lbcraIity Of opinion, more of that noble and
hgli-minded cas-, of principle that looks with
forgiving eye, as well upon the frailties Of
errng humanity as upon the Jars and conten-
tons that grow out of either religion or poll
tics, than any other class of men, not except
ing the teachers of the religion Of the Bible
themselves, or the statesman who thunder in
the forum. Printers have sort of freema-
sonry with the whole world. Conversant
not only With events that are Transporting in
their own neighborhood, but over the whole
universe, their occupation and The peculiar
province in which they move, are all calcu-
lated to bring within the scope of their vision
and the circle Of their interests the opinions
and the feelings Of the entire family of man.
II is similar community Of interests and
personal converse with the whole world that
makes the honest tar wholesouled man,
friend of his species, in whatever port he
meets them; but the Printer is his superior
in one respect the field of letters, the gar
den of science, and the very fountain of
learning, are in his range and measurable un-
der his control. With scarcely an excep-
ton, there is not one of the professors that
good man might not be proud to take by the
hand as an associate and friend, or that the
statesman might not take into his counsel
with satisfaction to himself and benefit to the
world ~

REUBEN ROUZY.

One Reuben Rouzy owed General WASH
ington about fIOO0. While President of
the United States, one of his agents brought
an action for the money; judgment was OBJ
tanned, and execution issued against the body
ofthe defendant, who Waetaken to Jail. He
had considerable Landed estate, but this
kind of property canno, be sold in Virginia
for debts, unless at the discretion Of the per-
son. He had large family, and for the sake
of his children, preferred lying in Jail to sell
ling his land. A friend limited to him, that
probably Gen. Washington did not know
any thing of The proceeding, and that j, might
be well to send him petition, with state
ment of the circumstances. He did so, and
the very next post from Philadelphia, after
the arrival of his petition in that city, brought
him an order for his immediate release, TO-
gelher with full discharge and severe
rcprimand to the agent for having acted in
such manner. Poor Rouzy was, in conse-
quence, restored to his family, who never
laid down their heads at night without pre-
scnting prayers to Heaven for their "beloved
Washington"
Providence smiled upon the labors of the
grateful family, and in few years, Rouzy
enjoyed the exquisite pleasure of being able
to lay the tflO0O, with the interest, at the
feet ofths truly great man. Washington re-
minded him that the debt was discharged
Rouzy replied, the debt of his family TO the
father of their country and preserver of their
parent, could never be discharged the
General, TO avoid the pleasing importantly
of the grateful Nirginian, who would not be
denied, accepted the money, only, however,
to divide it among Rouzy's children, which
he Immediately did.

WHOLESALE ADVICE.

After all, perhaps the greatest lesson whicl,
the lives of literary men teach us is told in a
single word-wal! Every man must pa
tientIy bidc his time. He must wait. More
particularly in lands like my native land,
where the pulse Of life beats in such fevcrish
and impatient throbs, is the lesson ncedlul.-
Our national character wants the dignity of
repose. We seem to live in the midst of
batte-there is such din, such hurrying
to and fro. In the streets of a crowded city
il is difficult to walk slowly. You feel the
rushing of the crowd, and rush with il on
ward. In the press of life it is difficult to be
calm. In this stress of wind and tide, all
professions seem to drag their anchors, and
are swept out in the main. The voices of
the present say come But the voices of the
past say wait With calm and solemn foot
steps the rising tide bears against the rushing
torrent up stream, and pushes back the hur-
rying waters. With no less calm and solemn
footsteps, not less certainly, does great
mind bear up against the public opinion, and
push back its hurrying stream.-Thcrefore
should every man wait-shoud bide his
time. Not in lisless ideness-not in use
less pastime-not in querulous defections,
but in constant, steady, cheerful endeavors,
always willing and fulfilling, and accomplish
ing his task, that when the occasion comes,
he may be equal to the occasion. And if it
never comes, what matter ii ?-What mat
tiers it to the world, whether I, or you, or any
other man did such deed, or wrote such
book, so be it the deed the book we're well
done! 1t is the part of an ndiscreet and
trnuhInSnmp ambiti,p IN o,,,ch
bout tame-about what the world says about
us--to be always looking into the faces of
others for approval-to be always anxious
for the effect of what we do or say-to be
always shouting, 10 hear the echo of our own
voices! lfyou look about you, you will see
men who are wearing life away in feverish
anxiety of fame and the last we shall hear
of them will be the funeral bell, that tolls
them to their gravel Unhappy men, and
unsuccessful because it was their task, bu,
to clutch the trick "and fantasy of fame
and they 90 to their graves with purposes
