The american Dictionary Of the English Language
is work Of profound invest and does inf mite
honor to the pathological learning and general lite
ratue Of this country. Happy the man who can
thus honorably identify his name with tho existence
Of our vernacular tongue There IS no other way
in which mortal man could more ehectually secure
immortality beneath the skies Obelisks, arches, and
tIiumphal monuments seem 10 be as transient as the
bubble OF military reputation. No work of art
Withstand the ncessant strokes of time. The unIi-
vailed Panhenon, glowing In polished marble and
which, Tor more than two thousand years continued
from the summit OF The citadel of Athens cast its
broad splendors the plains below, and along
the coasts and headands of Attica, is now cIumb-
ling TO ruins, after being despoled Of Its most exqui
site materials by savage war and heartless man.
Even the Pyramids of Egypt, whose origin is hiddel
10 the deepest recesses OF antiquity, and which have
always stood in awe-inspirng solitude and grandeur
now annoyed by the depredatons of curiosity,
and greatly corroded by the action Of the elements,
and gradually sinking under the encroachng sands
Of the desert This dictionary; and the language
which II embodies will also perish; but IL will OF be
with the gorgeous palaces 1t will go with the solemn
ItnPlcs and the great globe Itself"
The Publishers Of the foregoing work respectfully
announce that they have made arrangements with
Mr.. +. Taylor, Bookseller, of Washington city, to
furnish the American Dictionary, in two large
umes at the very reduced price OF twelve dollars.
1t is TO be understood that for this price the best

The very valuable supplement, tohieh Is contained

not given in any other dictionary; only completed
by Dr. Webster in lS43, Immediately before the
sickness which terminated his valuable life and has
been published and copyrighted, since his death,iby

The work is now therefore in finished and com
plele state, is not 10 be supposed that any thing
more can or will be added to it, the present edition de-

The STATE Con vENTIoN OF LOUISIANA met at
New Orleans, on the 18th instant, pursuant to
adjournment, and at the st. Louis Ball Room in
that city. Gen. joe. Walker, President, in the
chair. A resolution was adopted, directing the
proceedings Of each day to be opened by prayer.
Mr.. Grymes moved, as foundation for the
business of the Convention, the adoption of the
frst article of the present Constitution, as fol
lows:
"lst. This powers Of the government Of the
State of Louisiana shall be divided into three
distinct departments, each Of them to be conf
ned to a separate body of magistrOcy, to wit ::
those which are Legislative to one, those which
are Executive to another, and those which are
Judiciary to anOtheT.''
This motion, after some conversation, pre-
vailed. On motion OF Mr.. Downs, the Conven-
ton then adjourned until 10 O'Clock on the NOR
ming Of the 18th.

OT"A SUFFERER,'' in the Yazoo City Wing
OF last Friday, has, doubtless, just cause for COM
plant. There is a statute Of this State which
provides for his and similar cases exactly. A
penalty for its violation accompanies the act
one-half of the fine goes to the Intormer-t the
other portion TO the State. In regard to those
who violate the law it is unjust, wrong and i'm
proper 10 individualize, as there are more than
ten different places in town where whisky is sold
by the pint, quart, halfgalOn, and jug full, to
Negroes. And that on Sunday too! What do
you think Of it, "Massachusetts John?" When

The London Times catches at the Senate Of the

party in the late election. In almost the very
language Of Mr.. Reeds letter to Lehigh, one Of
bis thousand letters, we may presume, scattering
election funds in Jumps Of $500 over Pennsyl.
vania, whiggery is given to understand, BY the
organ Of the tories Of England, that il must lido
better' in the Senatorial elections than it did in
the late Presidential struggle;
"Ih order to maintain majority in the SEN
ate, (says the Times TO the whigs,) they must
eIectM Senator from TirgiRiG and the Senator
from DtIGWare. Unless they get the Virginia
and Delaware Senators, the slave and Texas
party will have the pract,ol majority, through
the casting vote Of the Vice President Of the
