Creator has given you form Of beauty
Of undulating outlines and graceful
sweeping curves, you should set yoursolve:

selves into sharp angles and straight, stiff
outlines, with no more pretensions to grace

RoME.-Col. Webb, in recent letter,
pays high compliment 10 Mni. Cass, for
the manner in which he discharges bis
duties. The Pope, the Colonel says, gives
Major Cass the credit of preserving 81.
Peters, in the following manner, from the
fury Of the mob:
Maj. Cass reached Rome after the fiigh.
of the Pope and his Court. He was, con.
sequently, the only representative of q
foreign Government in Rome, at period
when several Of the leaders Of the Revolu.
ton, finding that further resistance to the
French was impracticable, resolved to de.
strOy the monuments Of Rome. and leave
for their conquerors but barren victory.
Major Cass was aroused from his bed at
two O'Clock one night, and informed that
several Of the leaders then in conclaye,
had just given orders to undermine and
blow up st. Peters, the proudest monu.
ment Of human skill the world has ever
seen. Without loss Of time he presented
himself before the assembled Vandals, and
by appeals, remonstrances and threats, in
the name Of his country and in behalf of
the civilized world. he compelled them to
abandon their purpose. His services haye
been duly appreciated by the Pope, and ut
his request. for the first time in tie history
of Rome, Protestant worship is now per.
mitted in the eternal city.
