For the .JeferS0Nian.


Mr.. PRrNTER:-Since perusing the brilliant
and richly freighted pages Of the Arabian
Nights, | have felt extremely gracious towards
that honorable fraternity, the knights Of the
Razor" All my professional brethren, am
happy TO say, have the benefit Of this predi-
lection, let them come from the truly refined
and polished circles of city life, or be what
are called in common parance "niggers from
Egypt" This sentiment has increased by
subsequent reading and observation, and at
the same time, have been fully satisfied that
the world but impertectly understands the
true character of the Barber. What may
say in the context, in his favor, hope will
not lie esteemed egotism, or in the least allied
to the effcmnacy of mutual adulation. Bar
bcrs have always been fayorltes with authors
and see no good reason why the term could
not be transposed, and Barbers become au-
Tiers. Bat this is really not necessary, as he
has been most eloquently vindcated by long
line of illustrious authors. They are, among
other things, represented as jovial, light
hearted scl of fellows, full 10 the brim of tnr
and frulic-so much so-though care invade
the peaceful precincts of their breast, and the
shadows of life fall Ikea pail upon their path
they would exclaim in exuberant hilarity,
Never mind the weather when he winds don't blow
Perhaps some modern Cervantes, enviou!
of the renown Of his great prototype, will ye
embalm in story the proprietor of "LOchI0zn
on," No. 2l3, upon the highlands Of Scotland
Excuse this personal allusion, and allow III
to add, that a surly or even rCScrped Bar
Der would wound my very acute sense Of pro
priety as much as "good natured Saracen o.
benevolent Ogre" But, however kindly
| the Barber has been treated by men of letters
| in all ages, no one can get real matter O
fact idea of him from books. You may re
gard the Barber as patonic idea, beauti
| ful vision, an entity, shadow, an enrapturinG
dream, u gorgeous dssolying view, Or a mag
niticent moving panorama; but you will neY
er have what might be termed a tangible ap
probation Of this celebrated "Tonsorlal Ar
tst' until you call at his saloon, in the base
ment, of DR.. S. WALToN's building, On Broat
street, where he will bury you beneath pro
fusion of imma culate linen and q snow drift 0
lather, take you professionally by the nose
and draw his superbly FURNISHED steel, will
exquisite precision over your chin, within
cricket's hop OF the carotid artery.
Moreover, the Barber always looks upol
the bright side of the picture, and consequent
ly, is always happy. No clouds darken hi
horizon; all is sunshine and peace. Shoult
time weave the silver thread among bis rayel
Iocks-it does not mortify his pride,-ant
should he be bound to the past by the leader
chains of sad remembrance, his stern phi
losophy would sustain him. Yea, more.
he should be called to leave this world-whicl
in reality is but u great sharing shop, wher,
all are barbers--he would bid adieu to hi
friends, in the sublime language Of the Poet
Farewell to the land Of the living,
Since my Susanna crossed the sea-

nothing has been presented which can
render these compounds entirely safe !;
while the frequent and dreadful accidents
almost daily recorded from their general
use should prompt the public to the ut
most care, if not to Danish them from all
dwellings, as moveable lights and espe-
cially when burned in lamps of fragile
materials.
