RESPONSIBILITY OF SOCIETY.

An excellent divine Of this city, a friend
Of ours, said TO us one day:-"We have
not learned the responsibility of society 10
individuals. We talk much Of the re-
sponsibilily of individuals to society, but
we forget that society is equally bound TO
project all her children"
| was some time since dining with a
distinguished Judge of the Queens bench,
in London. The conversation turned, as
you may well imagine, on the condition
Of the poor. / said to the Judge:

CoRREcTIoN.-Many Of our readers
were hat startled, at the announce
ment in our last number, of the demise Of
Maj. Farmer. We are crsdibly inform
ed, how ever, that we were under a mis-
take, which waa based upon the following
fact; the Maj. called at our Office on the
Thursday previous, and assured us that
he would, on the following Friday, "tf he
cds otiUe," haul us a load Of pine knots,
for which we had sometime since render
ed up 10 him an equivalent. Friday came,
and Friday passed away, minus The knots
we neither saw nor received any III
dings of the Maj, and the only rational
conclusion that we could come 10 was,
that ne was certainly dead, and in obedi-
ence 10 a long established usage Of our
craft, we proceeded forthwith to pay The
last obsequies 10 departed memory. We
take pleasure now in announcing to his
numerous friends and ~acqusintances, that
he is yet aliue-up and doing. A long
life and abundant prosperity, say wei,
and ID that we may recei,e The knots!F
- redericktown, (.No.) EsPtdt.
TE-We think our brother of the Espi-
al did perfectly right in announcing the
Majors death under the ciycnndahee&,
but decidedly wrong TO announce that he
was alive again, the more especially so,
as he failed to produce the knots, when he
furnished the editor with the evidence tina,
he was still alive and kicking. We would
hardly commit such an indiscretion as that,
and can only account for friena Lindsay,
doing so, purely from a desire to accom-.
modate the Major, and not that he believ.
ed him to be alive. Is it not so?

BEAUTY.

IT'S not the forms exquisite mould
The silken curl's voluptuous flow
The lighisome step--the witehing eye
The small white hands and snowy brow
Can that be beautiful which fades,
Like rainbow from the cloud of dun,
That withers at the touch of time,
Like flowers beneath a burning sun?
Oh, what are beauty's Loasted charms?
A fleeing glance--a passing smile
A form, whose graceful lineaments
Conceal 100 oft the heart of guile;
A vain and vacant smile may play
On rosy lips and dinpled chin
The eye may brightly glance, yet give
No token of a mind within.
But all! the mind-the undying mind,
Hath holier beauties OF its own
A charm that fingers no bless
When outward loveliness bath flown.
Aye, fingers when the cheek is pale,
Andcare hath dirnmed the eye of mirth
Unaltered BY the frost Of time,
Or changing circumstance of earth.
