JAMES S. WADsWoRTH.

The death ofthis gentleman, has called forth from
Mr. Weed, editor of the Albany Journal, the follow
ngnotice of the life and character of the deceased.
eft was our privilege TO have enjoyed this great
and good mans friendship and confidence for many
years. We say great and good, for such was truly
and eminently his character. He was emphatical-
ly the architect of his own fortune and fame. His
fortune was acquired by Agricultural enterprise and
industry; and by devoting all that 'needful of
that fortune to the diffusion of Knowledge and the
encouragement of Science, he established for him
self reputation enduring as time
Mr.. Wadsworth gave his thoughts as well as his
money to the cause of Education of Political Econ
omy and the Practical Sciences. The Common
wealth is equally indebted to his wisdom for sug-
costing and maturing, and to his munifcencc for
carrying out measures Of physical, men al and NOR
al Improvement. He established and endowed the
first Normal School in this State. He originated
and assisted in perfecting the system of Common
School Libraries, by means of which every School
District insthe State is in possession of the most
precious literary treasures. He has published large
editions of valuable works and caused them to be
gratuitously disributed. And he has done much
else Of which we hope to have faithful memoir,
and for which his memory will be gratefully cher
ished by the citizens Of the State of New York.
James Wadswortli, inscompany with hissbfother
William who died several years Since, were natives
of Hartford, Ct They purchased large tract of
land upon the River towads the close of the
last century. The Indians were for many years
their only 1neishbors. Their industry, enterprise
and intelligence Soon rendered their possessions
immensely valuable Their vast fortune shows
what enGghted men can accomplish even in the too
much neglected pursuit of Agriculture. Gen. VIM.
Wadsworth lived and died bachelor, bequeathing
his share of the estate to his brothers. children.
James Wadsworth, next to John jacob Astor, was
the wealthiest man in State. His immense
fortune descends to two sons, who ate heirs also to
many of their Fathers virtues; and to Daughter
who, tho in person and mind formed to grace and
charm society, has, with all daughters devoted
Affection, been the inseparable companion Of her
Father during his years of sickness and suffering
Martin Brmmer, Esq, former Mayor Of Boston,
married the eldest daughter Of Mr. Wadsworth,
who died many years ago, but we believe left chill
dren.

The following beautiful lines, which we copy
from the New Mirror, are from the. +" BREv1ARv'
of N. P. Willis:
Strange, thai the winds should be left so free,
To play with a flower, or tear tree;
To rage or ramble where'er it will,
And, as it lists, to be fierce or still; ~
Above and around to breathe of life,
Or to mingle the earth and sky in strife
Gentle to whisper, with morning light,
Yet to growl like fettered fiend at night
Or to love, and cherish, and bless to-day,
What tomorrow it ruthlessly rends away!
Strange, that the sun should call into birth
All the faiFest flowers and fruits of earth,
Then bid them perish, and see them die,
While they cheer the soul and gladden. the eye.
At morn,it child is the pride of spring
At night, shriveled and loathsome thing!
To-day, there is hope and, life in its breath,
Tomorrow, it shrinks to useless death.
Strange does 1t seem, that the sun should Joy
To give life alone, that it may destroy.
Strange, that the ocean should come and go,
With its daily and nightly ebb and flow
Should bear on its placid breast at morn,
The bark, that ere night, will be tempest-torn;
Or cherish it all the way it must roam, 49,.
To leave it wreck within sight of home:
To smile as the mariners tolls are DER,
Then wash the dead to the cottage door;
And gently ripple along the strand,
To watch the widow behold him land!
But, stranger than all, that man should die,
When his plans are formed and his hopes are high;
He walks forth lord of the earth to day,
And the morrow beholds him part of its clay
He is born in sorrow and Graded in pain,
And from youth to age-it is labor in vain;
And all that seventy years can show, Il
Is, that wealth is trouble, and wisdom woe;
That he travels path of care and strife. (
Who drinks Of the poisoned cup of life -,
Alas if we murmur at things like these,
That reflection tell us are wise DEGREES;
That the wind is not ever gentle breath
That the sun is often the bearer of death
That the ocean wave is not always still
That life is chequered with goodand i'll:
If we know tits we'll that such change should be,
What do we learn from the things we see
That an erring and SHINING child of dust
Should not wonder nor murmur-but hope and trust

DIR REECHER,s DREAM.

The importance of individual action and value of
the unit constituting large sums, is very ianciuly
and eloquently illustrated in the annexed dream.
which at meeting in Ohio. for the promotion of
the cause of education, DR.. Beecher related.
"He saidhe had adream, which like other dreams
did. not wholly explain ITSELF and in which some
of the natural objects had the power of speech He
travelling near the sources of the Monon gahe-
la, and in passing over rough country, at every
short distance, met little stream, which he could
not step over; but all Of them were going the same
wav At last, he asked one where he was going -
"Why, replied the little rill, | am going to New
Orleans. | heard the people there want a great
canal thousand miles long, and fifteen hundred
feet wide, and am going TO help make II" And
prav what can You ?" "I don't knew what can
do; but shall be there" And 80 saying, it hur-
ried on. M
He came to another and asked the same ques-
ton, and received the same answer. All were hur-
rying on to make the grand canal, which the
steamships of the West, with their heavy burdens
were to be transported. On the heads of the Ale
ghany, the Scioto, and the Mississippi, he found
thousands more of ftful streams, hurried on by the
same impulses, and which, while he yet spoke to
them, passed out of sight. None knew what he
could do, but all were determined to do something.
He passed on, till he came to the mighty Missssip-
pi, and there he found the canal was made! The
noble steamships rode proudly IFS surface and as
its waters diminished, they again replenlshed
TO the brim, by every mountain spring and every
stream. Thus do the little rills make the stream,
the stream the rver till the united waters of the
whole pour on their way, rejoicing to the glorious
ocean. So is man to hcmass, and the mass to the
grand tide of human affairs. Each little mortal,
weak and weary though he be, can do something in
making up the mighty stream 0f human events, as
il rolls on to the ocean of eternity"
This is beautifully said, and is alike applicable
to political action to the other concerns Of human
existence. No one individual knows in what or
how far his exertions, influence, and vote, may
modify or control great political Tesults-but il
at the appointed time each resolves to be "there -
where duty calls him, and " weak and weary though
he be-" TO do something towards making up the is
sue-his weight cannot be unfelt or unimportant.

publican saws that at is maxim universally
observed among editors, Eve mean sensible
and intelligent ones) that if they can say moth
inc in favor of new paper, they will at least
say nothing disrespectful of the proprietor or
his enterprise. Very good. We said moth
ing against the proprietor of the Republican,
personally; for we have not the honor OF per-
sonal acquaintance with that "luaa;nous gentle
man;''-we spoke with exclusive reference to
his "eaterpqise" That enterprise Is nothing
more nor less than an attempt to show that We
who edit Democratic papers are not entitled to
that appellation-th he alone is the luminous
gentleman pre-eminently sensible and
Intelligent exponent OF Democratic principles.
1t was against this impudent and preSumptd-
Gus assumption that we objected. When an
individual comes before an intelligent commu-
nifty, in the capacity OF editor OF a political
journal, he should be candid and fair IN the
declaration Of his opinions, or rather, the opn-
ions of the party to which he belongs-and 1t
is not less dishonest for such an individual to
sail under false colors, or apply to himself par
| IT, names that do not belong to him, than II
would be for him to attempt concealment CT
his principles-and it is mol honest, according
! to our idea of the meaning of the term, for the
| Federo-Whig ''gentleman' who ''does' the
editorials of the Republican, to apply to him
self and consequently to the party whose prin-
ciples he advocates, the term DEMOCRATIC
But it is perfectly consistent with the past his
tory of the party with which the ''senslble and
intelligent" and consistent editor Of the Re
publican acts. Chameleon-like, they have
changed the name Of the party at almost every
important contest-they were first tederallsts,
then National Republicans, then Wings, then
Republican Wings, and now they very mod
estly call themselves Democratic Republican
Wings. Do not that party, in their irfffsost
souls, hate Democracy 2-and do not many Of
the more honest among them apply it to the Re-
publican party in spirit of derision? And
do not the old Federalists-those who hsve al
ways been Federalists, and who acknowledge
themselves to be such now-do they not des-
pise the memories of the illustrious fathers of
the Republican party? Political upstairs and
renegades from the Republican ranks, may
spout about Democracy; but the Ethiopian
stain of Federalism sticks to them like the
shirt of Nessus.
