STRIKING LIKENEssEs.-Co Country snb-

ware Of the mpositions praciised upon
them in the way Of portraits Of noted lndi-

same plate which has years agone served

ties in the History o? The Revolution, is
more recently used 10 illustrate Lundy's
Lane, or Buena Vista, and a naval scene
before Gibraltar gives an accurate view of
tho American fleet at Vera Cruz. We
have seen the same portrait, at different
times, grace the columns Of a Boston lite
rary paper as John Quincy Adams, How.
ard, the phlanthropist, and BENJAMIN
Franklin; and yet lis "work OF usefulness"
is just begun The latest instance Of this
kind of trickery appears in New York
daily, under the imposing words" The
likeness of DR.. Webster !" Aided by this
woodcut, many an old dame in speclaces,
growing eloquent on the sin Of murder,
will be enabled to draw her conclusions on
the guilt Of the accused, and to point out,
physogn the strong points OF the
evidence against him. The bristling hair
points distinctly to his affinity with the UNI
tameable hyena, the wrinkles at the cor
ners Of the mouth indicate sanguinary
thirst akin to that of the Bengal Tiger;
from the eye, though partially concealed
by spectaces, CLEANS the subtle ferocily of
the ratlesnake, and the aquiline nose
marks the aged culprit's sympathy with the
relentless birds OF prey. And yet This is

FsyIn Senate, on Friday, after the Slove-
ny Committee had been appointed, MIR.
Phelps asked to be excused, particularly on
account of his health. MIR. Mangum OBJ
jccted, and Mr.. Phelps said he had other OBJ
jections. lie must say that he had felt from
the outset that the appointment OF the com
mittee would result in nothing but an eX-
preston of opinion, and that in that view he
would, if placed upon that committee, feel
compelled to throw himself entirely on his
own personal views. The probability in his
own mind was, that the result of the whole
proceeding woull be unsatisfactory to the
Senate and the country.
y Mr.. Webster hoped Mr. Phelps would
not insist If the example was to be set of
excusng, because of the fear that the com
mittec would arrive at no practicable result,
he should perhaps feel compelled to follow IT.
The question being taken, MIR. Phelps
was not excused.
