BEAUTIFUL ExTRACT.--At the recent
meeting in New Orleans, for the relief Of the
Irish sufferers, tho Hon. s. s. Prentiss mads
a speech, from which we take the following
beautiful extract: @
"There lies upen the other side of the
wide Atlantic beautiful island, famous in
story and in song. Its area is not so great
as that o. the State of Louisiana, while IFS
population is almost half ,ha, of the Union.---
1t has given TO the world more than i's share
OF genius and ofgreatness. II has been pro-
life ip statesman, warriors and poets. It's
brave and generous sons have fought success
fully all battles but their own. In wit aud
humor il has no equal; while its harp, like lis
history, moves 10 Tears by its sweet but mel
ancholy palhos. Into this fair region God
has seen fl, to send the most terrible of all
those fearful ministers who fulfil his inscru-
table dcerees. The earth has failed to give
her increase tho common mother has for.
gotten her offspring, and her breast no lon
ger affords them their accustomed nourish-
ment. Famine. gaunt and ghasIly famine,
has seized a nation with its strunging grasp
and unhappy Ireland in the sad woes Of the
present, forgets for moment tho gloomy his
Tory of the past"

PuRENoLoGy AND THE lIoRsz.-Mr. T. J.
Lewis observes, That willis reading DR..
Combe's celebrated work on Phrsnology his
attention was particularly drawn to the arti-
Gle on page 205, relative TO the horse. at
is there shown,' it is said "that The shape of
the brain, even in the lower animals, indi-
Gates their good or bad disposition. Almost
every one," he continues, ''is aware that the
value of the horse is very much enhanced by
his being docile aud traclable. According
to the article alluded to, when the organ OF
Benevolencs is largely developed, the ami
NAL is mild and docIle; when it is small, he
is vicious, ill-natured, and in,ractab!s. In
the horse the organ is placed in the middle
of the forehead, little above the eyes
when this region is hollow, horse is invari-
ably vicious, and inclined 10 bite and kick.
In mild and good-natured horses, on the con.
trary, this part extends as Gar out as the eyes.
or even farther"
"The driver Of cabriolet Of Neuilly,"
says Dr. Gall, "bought ut lew price, horse
that nobody could use, on account of its ex-
trenely bad temper; but it was an cxcellen,
runner. In the first week, it bit off two OF
the drivers fingers and one OF his ears. lie
attempted 10 correct the evil BY redoubled
blows, but these only rendered the animal
more vicious. He then resolved TO try The
effects Of ofgentle treatment, and this succeed
cd TO ce tain extent. The organ in question
was very small in this animal; aud the same
conformation will be found in all horses
which require to be muzzled TO prevent
them from biting."-CulipatOr.

MUsIC.-Tbe Christians, like The Pagnns
believe tho empire Of Music to extend be.
yond the grave; Of all the fine arts, none act
so Immediately upon the soul the others d.
rec, il towards such or such ideus; but this
alone addresses the very source of life, and
transforms The whole being at once, hunanly
speaking,as as Divine Gracs is said 10 change
the heart. Among all our presehtimcnts OF
futuriiy, those 10 which melody gives birth,
are no, the least worthy of reverence. Even
the lnirth excited by bulfo singing is not vul-
gar, but fanciul; beneath II lie poetic rever.
les, snch ar spoken wit never yet created.--
Music is so volatile pleasure, we are so
sensible iha, il escapes from us even as We
enjoy i',-that il always leaves a tender i'm
preston on the mind; yet. when expressive
oi grief, il sheds genlleness even over des-
pair The heart beats more quickly 10 its
regular measure, and reminding US of lifs's
brevi,y, bids US enjoy what we can; the ST.
lent void is filed; you feel within yourself
the active enorgies that fear no obstacle
from without. Music troubles our compu-
tatien Of our own faculties, and makes US
feel capable Of the noblcst efforts, .aaches
us TO march towards death with enthusiasm, /,
and is happily powerless to explain any base
or arlful sentiment. Music lifts from the
brsast the weight il SO often feels beaea,h
serious affections, and which We take for the
heaviness oflifs, 8" habilual 10 its pressure
We hang on such pure sounds, till we seem
to discover the secrets Of the Eternal, and
penetrate tho mysteries Of Nature: no words
can explain this; for words but copy primi-
tive sensations, as prose translators follow
poetry.

Temnerance in Vermont.

The signal victory which the friends of tenn
perance have recently obtained in this State, is
hailed with JOY by the friends of the cause in
other States, and its influence will be felt far and
wide. 1t is a glorious triumph, and nothing, in
our judgment, but the errors of those who have
aided in achieving this victory can prevent its
desired success in striking dcath-blow to the
ravages of intemperancc in the State. We have
a word or two of advice. In the first place, let
not those who rejoice in the result, manifest a
partisan spirit, which is satisfied with merely
beating the friends of license at the polls, with
out regard to the great principles of benevolence
and human well-being which ought to influence
all our actions upon this subject. Let it not APP
pear that We arc waging a war upon the friend,
of rumselling and rum consumption, and thus
arouse the strongest opposition of which they are
capable, under the belief that their rights are
%trampled upon; but let it be manifest that we
strive for the general good and safety Of the
community, which is j%eoparded and destroyed
by the rum traffic, In this way we disarm our
opponents of their strongest weapon. Another
thing let the law be fully sustained, in its letter
and spirit. In this way alone can it have a fair
trial, and its benefits be seen and felt. Under
the old law, when the State voted by counties on
this subject, whenever a county succeeded in
electlng anti-license commissioners, so timid and
faithlcss were the friends of temperance, that the
law was allowed to be violated and trampled upon
with impunity, and thus the sentiment became
somewhat prevalent that all legislation upon this
subject did but render the matter worse and
worse. 1t would seem that there is now no ex-
cuse for f%altering. The decision of the Su-
premo Court, coming upon the back of the YER
dict of the People, settles the question beyond
all cavil, and nothing but criminal mismanage-
ment can prevent our State from reaping the
peaceable fruits of a most wholesome law.

The Battles,

A Geographic despatch from New York, to the
Transcrip pit and Journal, of last evening gives a short
but apparently an authentic account of the battles be-
tween Gen. Taylor and Santa Anna. They were
fought on the PC and 23d ult, at Buena Vista, about
SIX miles south of Saltlllo. The Mexicans had I5-
600 and Gen. Taylor had 5000 men. The Mexcians
were totally routed, with 1000 killed and wounded
The American loss was 200 including 63 officers. A.
mong the killed are Col. Henry Clay, Jr, Col. Yell of
Arkansas, Col. John J. Hardin of Illinois, and Adult
ant Lincoln of Massachusetts The latter distinruIsh-
ed himself gallantly in the battles of the Sh and 9th
OF May, and was promoted therefor. The despatch
says
The Mexicans Adiutant-G General was taken prison.
or. Santa Anna had fallen back on Aqua Nueya.
The first days fighting was at long shot and ma
nGuvrelng. Santa Anna attempted to get in the rear
OF Taylor, but Taylor's artillery dispersed the Mexi-
cans.
The Americans sustained several bayonet charges
with great tlrmness. Gen. Taylor was in every part
of the field.
The volunteer officers displayed uncyamnIed in
%trepidity, IN leading their men against the enemy. as
Is shown by the great disproportlonate loss.
Santa Anna claims to have taken four positionst?)
three pieces OF artillery and two standards. TAYLOR,
during the action, received a ball throug his ovcrcoat.
Adjutant Bliss was wounded.
Adjutant Lincoln was killed. The prisoners had
been exchanged. Gen. Taylor occupied the battle
ground unmolested, on the 9th and 25th.
On the oath and 25th, Santa Anna writes to the
government that he had retired to Aqua Nueva, be-
cause he had not ones rations left. lie says both
armies were much cut up, but promises to return and
renew the attack as soon as he can procure provisions
and water.
An American train of 100 mules was cut off be-
tween Camargo and Monterey. All the escort was
killed except three.
Col. Curtis had left Camargo to attack Urea. Col.
Morgan of Ohio had reached Monterey after much
fighting. Seralvo, Miermarin, and China were in nos.
session of the Mexicans. An attack was daily ex-
pected on Tampico, and the citizens were arminr at
Brazos, but the fear of being attacked had passed a.
way. Full accounts have been received BY mail.
New York, Thursday Evening.
Further Paticu{mV-Another mail has arrived
from New Orleans. A letter from a Mexican at Sal
tllo, dated on the 9th of March, states that in the bat
ties at Buena Vista, Gen. Wool advanced with a
strong detachment against the Mexicans, but was
driven back with immense loss. The Mexican caval-
ry charged with drawn swords, and did great execu-
ton.
As Gen. Wool fell back, Gen. Taylor advanced
with fresh troops, and repealed the MeXcans with
great slaughter. This charge decided the battle.
On the oath, both armies hung off without coming
toa general engagement, being occupied in carrying
off the wounded and burying the dead. After the
oath there was no more fighting. The Mexican troops
furnishing with hunger, and convinced that thew could
not drive Gen. Taylor from his position, retired.

a o0tcano at wOrk.-A very wonderful con.
vulslon took place on the 14th January last, in
Rice Lake, IL miles North of Coburg, u. c.
The lake was seen to be in great commotion
the ice, Is inches thick, undulating in every di
r%ection, Presently it burst with a noise like
thunder, and a large piece from the center ofthc
lake was, in a few minutes, thrown up in a pile
to the hight of ten feet, in which position it La
for several days. This is, no doubt, related t.
the earthquake which caused the awful commo
ton in Lake Antario at Grafton.

before for the purpose Of seizing and hanging the first

Rumors.-Among the rumors of the day, is
one received by a gentleman at Philadelphia, from
a merchant at Tampico, who had heard that a
Purser from San Louis, had understood that
Santa Anna had forwarded a recommendation
to the Mexican Congress to sue for peace.
