A SEVERE BUT JUST REBUKE.

The New Haven Palladium has the following merited rebuke to the Postmaster General, in alusion to the recent untimely death of his sons
 .dmOs RendaH.-This man has recently been grievousiy afflicted by the death of his son Tn street fight, and he is entitled to some sympathy for his sorrow |; but we think that most other men could reasonably claim much more, and for the reason that during the Presidential campaign, whenever any of his political opponents met with reverse of fortune, their friends and cOnnec- tions prostrated by disease, or any calamitous accident, he seized upon the circumstance with all the malice of fend, and proclaimed it abroad in pamphlet and newspaper, as an indication of the l anger of Providence towards the Whigs. The grave could not shield its inmate from his infamous attacks, and the feelings of mourning friends were narrowed by his impious efforts to turn their af- flictions to political account No one acquainted with his rIbald essays on the death of Harrison, will ever forget them, or cease to remember that his pen was dipped in the bitterest gall No man ever lied more villainously in relation to the Cil ley Duel, or roted more wantonly upon the lace rated feelings of MT. Cay's family, than this man Kendall. He was the master spirit of his party in this sort of warfare. No grief was too sacred to escape his assault-no character too pure for his most malignant aim. His attacks were particu- larly characterized by their impiety--by efforts to show that the wrath of the Divine Providence was constantly ont-poured upon the Wings, as if Amos Kendall were appointed to interpret the designs of the Almighty, and as if his political opponents were alone sinners in the sight of heaven While he assumed to exercise more than the priestly of- fee, there was air and tone of rank infidelty apparent in all his essays on these topics. We do not say that his recent affiiction is judgment from heaven, for his many attempts to represent such events in other cases, being ordered for political transgresslons-we dare not say it-but we do say, that while no one with human heart, can rejoice at Amos Kendall's aff1iction, few can feel as much sympathy for him, as for any other grief-stricken man.

THE AMERICAN REVIEW: fl Whig Journal of
 Politics. Literature, .fyt and Science.-New-
 York: Wiley and Putnam. ,
 We have been much interested in the perusal of the October number of thls excellent monthly, ed ited by our friend, GEO. H. CoLroN, Esq It is certainly one of the abest periodicals in our coun. try; and is especially worthy of the support of every Whig. Its political articles are sound, To- gical and convincing; and as clear and candid exponent of Whig principles, it fills vacancy in our monthly periodical literature, which ought to have been occupied years ago. Its commercial and literary essays, written with vigorous and classical pen, and evince an unusual share of re- search and ability. Mir. Colton enjoys the repu- tation of being one of our best writers, both in prose and verse; and his Review" gives tangible evidence that his reputation is we'll founded The number before us contains, among other interest ing papers, The Life and Labors of Hugh S. Le- gore. with a mezzotint likeness of that eminent statesman.

A RIVAL OF THE " STEAM HEN."-The great " steam hen," which was recently destroyed by fire at Wehawken, near New-York, was regarded as one of the wonders of this wonderful age Pos- sibly the Gothamites were not aware that for midsble rival to their new mode of incubation ex- isted hereabouts. MT. James Wallace, of this town. states that some time in the early part O: August last, he cooped up all his hens, in conse- quence of their depredations upon his garden and fields. About the 10th of September, some five weeks afterwards, he was surprised to find new ly-hatched chicken upon his barn floor; and hear ing the chirpings of others upon the mow, he commenced search. On the south side of the barn, at some distance below the top of the now, between the hay and the barn boards, he found a nest with several little peppers, some of which had evidently but just emerged from the shell- As it was known that no hen had been upon the premises for several weeks, the conclusion is un. avoidable, that incubation was produced by the warmth of the sun upon the side of the barn where the nest was located.

SINGULAR PHENOMENON ON LAKE oNTA-
 RIO

RIO.
 The Coburg e. W. Star, relates the following most curious circumstance a...
 On Saturday last. most extraordinary occur renee was noticed in the lake at this place Short ly before noon some gentlemen walking upon the wharf, happening to cast their eyes upon the Wa ter between the piers were struck with the very unusual appearance of strong current tide, as it were setting directly out to sea. It seemed as if the whole Lake was going bodily away. In few minutes nearly third part of the inner harbor with corresponding portion of the shore on either side was left entirely bare when suddenly the tide turn ed, and came as rapidly back again. filling the har- bor, at least two feet higher than it was before-
 This extraordinary action of the Lake was con- tinued at intervals of every eight or ten minutes till after dark-the highest tide noticed being it- tie before six in the evening, when the water rose several inches higher than it was last spring, and just two feet and an inch above its present level- We understand the same occurrence was noticed at other places on the Lake, and hear that at Port Hope the effect was so great that the steamboat Princes Royal could not get into the Harbor at al running hard aground when more than her length outside the entrance to the piers. The cause of SO extraordinary phenomenon is at present matter ofvarous conjecture but the general opinion seems to be that it could only have been produced bv violent earthquake in some part of the continent, which we shall probably soon hear of
