der this motto, the correspondent Of the
"IIlustration," remarks upon the Indus
trial movements, commercial and mari
time OF the United States. The follow
ing is an extract from the article, which
is highly complimentary to our people.
The "llluslraton," is republished in
New York with an American sheet ad-
ded to it, under the direction of Messrs.
ChevaIicr and Maroon. It is very
agreeable journal, filed with well exc
cuted and spirited illustrations.
"The American nation is incontrover-
tibly the boldest and most enterprsing
of any people Oh the earth. Under
whatever point OF view il is examined
and studied we find it railways in advance
and running after the strangest dreams,
which il has the secret gift, when it
once reaches them, and they rarely es-
cape it, OF ma!crializing and rendering
the most palpable in the world. There
is no danger that these people will leave
any idea behind them, for they pick up
everything, they leave nothing in Il
problemalical or an unfinished state
SO much so, that at the first glance
they have the appearance Of chlmcra
hunters and seekers after no one knows
what philosophers stone, which they
always end 10y finding. The first i'm
preston one receives, however, is soon
modified and the idea that remains ls'
that they are men never satisfied with
the advances, the improvements, the

The CoIored Dagon.

A friend who knows informs us that there
is one-but one--individual of African
blood, in that lucky township Of our goodly
State, in which resides the notorious Joshua
r. Giddings. That one, however, is kept
there, as it were, to illustrate and embody
the whole darkie species, to the sympathising
whites. He is the greatest man in The parish
--Joshoa only excepted. He commingles
with the white folks, socially as gastronom-
ically, and has high and notable seat in
their synagogue. Solitary and alone, he re.
ceiyes the suzerainty Of the sovereigns Of the
Giddings precinct. Our friend suggests that
1t is quite doubtful whether the d1plic te Of
that black man would be allowed to come
into town. II would break the charmi Ii
would establish a sort Of polytheism among
the Ebony Worshipels, which could not but
be regarded as rank heresy-.-by the colored

tons Of the Ioshuaites, rEphfaina Is ioin-

Important Decision---Wir Subscribers
~ Take Notice. .sr

In the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas,
on Wednesday last, says the Lancaster Onion,
an important case was decided. II was a suit
pending between Philip, r. Freas VS.. Jacob
Haos, to recover the subscription price of the
Germantown Telegraph for IL years. The pa
per was left at public house in the vicinity of
the defendants stall, in Callowhill street, (the
defendant being butcher at the time, at the
express direction Of Mr. Haas, where It was
continued to be left for the space of time men,
toned. The defence was two fold--1st, the
stat1e Of limitations; and 2nd, that the paper
should have been left at the residence Of The
defendant, as it was known TO the plaintiff
Judge Kelly charged the jury that where per-
son snbscrbes for a paper, and gives direction
where il shall be left, he is bound to pay forit,
unless he prescrbes the time for which itshall

The New Constitution.

We publish the new constitution again In
the present number, ina correct and authen-
ticated form. In the previous publication
several emors existed owingto the TACT tnatat
that time no copy had been issued by the
proper officers Of the convention. The one
now published may be relied upon in every
particular, and our uTsubscribes would DO we'll
to preserveit for futule reference.
Notwithstanding all the ojections which
the opponents Of reform have endeavored to
raise against il, we do moi hesitate to say
that it is one OF the best, il not the very best
constitution in the Union. Perfection is
not to be expected in any human work. and
ii existed we are not to expect that all will
be pleased with II.
But It contains wise provisions sufficient
to counterbahnce ten times the error that
can be found in it. Look ala few Of them:
The election Of State officers, judges and
clerks Of courts BY the people
Equal taxation Of all property whether
individual or cooperate.
The prohibitions Of all special charters and
providing for associated action by general
laws SO that all may share equally IN The
benefits derivabIe from such aetioD-
A judiciary system better calculated to
promote the ends of Justice and to save the
people from endless vexation and expense
Restrictions against burhensome public
debt.
Provisions to guard the property Of indi-
viduals from appropriation by corporate COM
panies without full and prompt compensa-
tion.
A reform Of legal proceedings and prac-
tice.
Having never lived under such sound and
healthful provisions we hardly know how To-
appreciate them. They are Of inestimable
value and we hope none will suffer their
minds 10 be led astray by the slight defects
which some are striving to magnify into Sc
rious objections. 49,.
