AN ELOQUENT PREACHER.

There is scarcely an inteligen! reader
who has not heard Of the Rev. Thomas
H. Stockton, of this city. He is pastor of
the Independent Methodist church, North

called to our mind, in consequence o.! read

pulpit orator, from the columns of the
Cincinnati Herald. It's editor, when late.
" in PhiladeI phia, heard him on the
great subject of Chrsts Ascension, land
he thinks it one OF the finest specimens Of
pit oratory he ever listened TO- In his
finest passages of spiritual soaring, he

Fle spoke, as he advanced, OF "lhe ex>

charots and horses Of fire; the cloud,

when the cloud had received him, while
the celestial hosts stood silent, as he gazed
once more on familiar scenes-Nlzareth
his birth place, the temple in which he had
taught, had been fed the mountain prayer

Calvary.
Then began the ascent: the lhrong FOL-

The Life of a Printer.

From the very nature OF his occupation
the life of a printer has ever been compare
lively unknown 10 the community at large.

pendenly of the confinement his employ.
ment necessarily entails upon him, he is
subject 10 various complains almost insu>
perdble from the nature of his occupation
1t is true that much that was obnoxious
has been removed, yet much still remains
which it does not appear possible to res
move 10 the advantage ofthe art of print
ng. The composior is The individual
who endures all that does remain which
is hurtful TO his health. The material of
which the types are made not untrequently
exers pernicious influence upon him,
particularly when be is obliged TO dry his
type by the fire for the purpose of expedi-
ton. Added to this, in the process of cor
recting he is in position which materials
y tends ulIim ately, if nOt immeliatel Y, TO
disturb The harmony of he internal organs.
He is also subject to variety of empera-
lures produced sometimes from hot air,
sometimes from stear,and sometimes from
gas, 10 the chances of " hich he is pecul
iarly susceptible, from the nature of his
habits chronic and other disorders being
thereby produced. But the most serious
of all the calamilies to which he is SUBJ
ject is the loss Of sight, 1t is no uncom~
mon circumstance that member OF the art
of printing becomes blind, or his sight so
much impaired that it is of little or no val.
NC TO him, who in his younger days, or
when he first came to the business, was
blest with the nices discriminating powers
that sense could display Often before he
arrives at mature age, his sight instead Of
becoming stronger, becomes weaker, and
before he arrives at The middle age of his
allotted term, he is obliged 10 seek aid from
artificial means, and, when he yet further
arrives beyond that period of life, he is
surrounded by complication Of maIades,
which never leave him until he is con-
signed TO the grave. Such is the life of a
printer; such is the life OF that man whose
days (Which are the primest of another
mans ifr) are employed, closely employ
ed, in administering TO the necessities, the
comforts and the luxuries of the whole

he great bulwarks Of liberty and can new
er be restrained but by DespOtic govern
menls'? Such persons, when they blus-
ter about liberty and their free Institutions,
only make themselves ridiculous, and
show to all surrounding nations that they
are Ignorant of the spirit and letter of
their own original constitution. To
threaten man with death for holding a
eerain opioion--an opinion, too, which
is cherished by all enlightened and beney-
client men in every naslon--is such. an
outrage on human rights and on
sense, as is not 10 be found exemp fied by
any other civilized people under The cope
of heaven.
In Britain there are many absud and
unrighteous laws in reference 10 both
Church and State, which require to be
abolished; bit there is no aw 10 prevent
free discussion respecting them, or 10 de-
bar The people from assembling for The
purpose of having them resclndtd. AsSo-
Citations have been formed for abolishlng
the Corn Law Monopoly and even for
effeciug the separation of Church and
State-a connection which is as firmly
maintained by the aristocracy and the ma
jority Of thu clergy in Britain, as The sys-
TEN of slavery is in America. But there is
no legal hindrance to such associations,
and TO the free and full discussion every
topic connected with such Subjects
Brtons would consider themselves as next
thing to slaves, and as under the sway Of
lyranls, were any attempt 10 be made 10
'shackle the mind and TO prevent free and
open discussion on these or any other SUBJ
jects connected with the interests OF hu-
man society. And how is it that Ameri.
cans who glory land perhaps jus,y)ln be-
ing freed from British contt0I, should ex.
ercise a tyranny by Lynch law,
or by express enactments-ove the minds
and bodies Of men, which has never been
attempted in Britain at least for one huod-
red and fifty years pas? Sorel 1t is high
time for the inhabitants of the United
States TO reflect seriously on this subject,
for certain portion of them appear to
have fearfuly degenerate 10 their com
prehension and practice of liberty from
the spirit and views Of those bold and rn>
ghtened men who framed their original
constitution. Such practices as those 20
which have now alluded could not
possibly have been permitted, nor such
sentiments cherished during The first peri
cd of American Independence; and when
camer times shall have arrived, which |
hope will be soon, many will doubtless look
with amazement on the present period Of
clustering against aboillonists, who when
they are denied the liberty of free travel,
