,,,eneticaI Attraction.

Prof Locke has announced 10 the National
Institution the discovery of the pole of greatest
magnetical attraction, so far as known, upon the
whole earth This pole is situated on little
Island at Copper Harbor, on the south side of
Lake Superior The remarkable fact that the
pole of greatest force or the point where the
earth magnetic needle the most intensely Is not
situated at the point or pole Of drecoh at Tue point

New York Iyceum.

The lecture of the New York Lyceum last
evening at the Tabernacle was well attended nc
Rev. Mr. Choules, the President Of the Lyceum,
stated that the Lyceum numbered over ooo
members and had select Library OF 2eoo Vo-
lumes It's debt, also, that had embarrassed H.
had been nearly liquidated by economy
After he had in very brief manner alluded 10
the pleasure he had derived from his connection
with the board of directors and gentlemen OF the
Lyceum, and the gratitude he felt for their KIND
ness, he handed in his resignation as President,
being called to other fields of labor.
The subject Of Dr. Hasbrouck's lecture was
the "Sanction and extent of public opinion as a
rule of conduct" The lecture contained much
truth and abounded in excellent remarks. we
do not know of better subject than the one ne
chose The tyranny of public opinion, as ex
hibited in this country, playing the moral despot
over man and the po,oer OF public OPINION a9
exhibited in the slow and steady undermining Oh
the thrones and systems of the old world that
have stood for centuries together with the define
alton of man who, scornlng ITS tyranny ye'
reoardino its voice, dares to be singular because
he dares to be true, are subjects that belong es-
pecially to our generation and interest every man
who looks thoughtfully on his race.

According to notice, there was meeting of these
claimants yesterday, at the Rooms of the Society

man, and other officers chosen-when Mr. Sedg-
wick made speech on the subject, showing the
obligation on the part of the Government to
iqudate these claims.
Ho was followed by Mr.. Perkins, of Connect
c.:t, md other gentlemen to the same effect
Mr.. P. suggested the prepriety of appointing and
salarying an agent Or agents, in the shape of a
committee, 10 60 to Washington, and urge these
claims on Congress. during their approaching
session.
MIR. Lunt, Of Newburyport, himself somewhat
deeply interested in the payment of these claims,
thought it would be better to memorialize Con-
gress first on the subject
Mr.. Sedgwick then offered some resolutions,
the principal Of which was to appoint commit
tee Of 2l, including the executive committee OF
five, whose duty it should be TO adopt such mea-
sures as the case demanded
The Convention then adjourned until to-day at

Ii was all well done, and the poem abounded
in striking satire and keen strokes Of wit. There
was great deal of truth in 1t also yet one needs
beware lest when he seeks reputation by de-
nouncing every thing as humbuggery, he may
not be enacting the greatest humbug of all The
true man is he who detects truth linked in as it
is with shams, and not he who thinks ii is not

There are many strong points in this pamPhe''
as might be expected from the reputation OF ,iie
author but the strongest, which VIII proooD'y
take the Abolitionists by surprise, as well as 'fle
public generally, is the religious character OF po-
ltical Abolition, cOnjoined with the formation
and growth of a political party. The author
makes Of if a case of Church and State, and pre-
sents the facts and reasons in such orclbIe al
raw that we do not see how the party accused

done. If there are any feathers on the fioch' we
