THE MODEL CouR1ER.-Ths magnificent

THE MODEL CouRIER-This magnificent
weekly, published at Philadelphia, by McMakin,
has commenced it's twentieth volume, the first
number of which is now before us. Its typo
graphical appearance is in the best style of art,
though, to our taste little gaudy ifnot extrava-
giant in its illustrations AS family newspaper
It is perhaps unc xceptionable. The present mum
b,r opens with an orig inal novelette, from the pen
of Mrs Caroline Lee Hentz, an interesting tale,
which is we'll told, and does great credit to the
writer and to the paper. 1t is worth year S
subscription.

yESUyEUs.

There has been, Of late, says the daily
Globe, 4 magnificent eruption of Mount We
suvius, one without an equal for long time.
Il commenced on The 9th Of February, and
continued many dpys. Discharges Of rocks,
stones, ashes, and fame, were constant and
most terrific; but what was most awful, aud
alarming, was deluge Of burning lava, that
issued from the crater, made its way down the
mountain, sweeping everything before it,
trees, whole forests, vineyards, colleges, cha
teaux, and churcbes-nothing, no matter
how strong or how massive it was, could for
moment arrest It's progress. II had already
covered--hiding from human view forever,
probably--a considerable extent Of cultiva~
led country, belonging mostly TO The Baron
CARsmoNE, and the Prince OTTAJANo. The
church Of San Fellce was overwhelmed and
absorbed whilst the priest was saying mass,
who, with The congregation, tarried SO long
that their safety was compromised, though
unnecessarily, for The progress Of The lava is
so slow that il gives everybody time to es-
cape, and if they do moi, Il is because their
curiosity, or their negligence is greater than
their sense Of danger Ia tho plain, lie We,
