''We believe shall be certain ofdoing service
to the people of the State, II We say word or two
upon the unabridged Quarto Dictionary of the
English Language, by Noah Webster The word
unabridged has been purposely employed, because
if such work is wanted for any but the very
lowest uses--those of mere orthography
thoepy--it cannot be too copious and comprehen-
sive. When one is ignorant of the proper and
precise powers of word, he cannot endure to be
turned over to an abridgment that gives him
synonym, instead of Il definition; but he demands
to know much as anybody knows of its history
etymology, and all its different shades of mean
ing. Then only can he employ it with confidence
and effect, as mighty weapon for the expression
OF intellect or passion.
'In the vital department Of n lexicon, its defini-
tions, for which, more than any and all other rca

ness satisfies the wants of the inquirer and their

lives in Philadelp hia, OF his condition A few
days afterw ards she arrived at Mr.. Spears house,
when she accompanied him to the jail. The poor
woman had not seen her son for six years. he hav-
ing been absent at sea. The scene between the
mother and son, it may be imagined was deeply
affecting. Liquor involved the prisoner in the
prisoner in the crime, and has nearly broken the
heart of his widowed parent.
