In obedience to call for meeting OF
the friends of Temperance to take place on
the 9th December, number of gentlemen

ings took place, and were ordered to be
published in the Port Tobacco Times:
Alter prayer by Rev. ROBERT PRoUT, on

REMOVAL OF THE COUNTY SEAT OF
PRINCE GEoRGE's.-The Marlboro Ga
zete says: "We learn that memorial to
the Legislature praying for a change in the
location of the County Town of our coun-
ty, is in circulation and has Oh tanned many
signatures. 1t is proposed to locate the
County Seat at or near the Long Old Fields
for the alledgeJ reason that said location
would be more convenient TO business men
in remote parts of the county. 1t is also
said, in furiherance Of the project, that said
change would be no additional cost to tax
payers, inasmuch as we have no Jail here
and there is already an appr oprialion made
for The repair Of the Court House; which
appropriation is nearly sufficient to build q
new Court House at the proposed ioca.
,ion. Besides all this, it is commended tha
the consumma,ion Of the project would
give high value to large lrac. of country
which has been hitherto, barren anG unpro.
duc,ive.
So far as we can learn, there is but little
opposition to the plan except from The CHI.
zens of Marlboro. This opposition is very
natural, inasmuch ss the consummslion o
the proposition would take away much o
the importance Of our imporianl llIe
town"

DICKENS AND THE UNITED STATES
Mr.. Charles Dickens has materially changed
in tone, with regad to this country, since he
wrote his ''American Notes" He concludes
his ''Child's History Of England" published
in "Household Words" of Dec. 10Th, as fol-
lows:
cit was in the reign Of George III. that
England los, North America, by persis,iug
in taxing her without her own consent.
That immense country, made independen,
under Washington, and left to itself, became
the United States one of the greatest nations
of the earth. In these times in which ]
write, it is honorably remarkable for pro-
,ec.ing its subjects, wherever they may ,ra-
vel, with a dignity and determination which
was model for England. Between you
and me, England has rather lost ground in
this respec. since the days Of Oliver Crom-
well.n

wha, had induced her to leave her two first
husbands, she answered that they were
"nichts goo,," and that Mr. Kohler was

DIR. CHEYNE OF DUBLIN.-"Should ten
young men begin at twen.y-one years Of
sge to use but one glass Of two ounces q
day, Of strong drink, and never increase the
quantity, nine Of the ten would shorten
their life more than len years." We believe
this. Ye, We know eyed men, good men,
who drink moderately, and feel, and believe
,ba, it does them good. The example ol
such men is very bad. They are held up
as demonstrating in their own cases, the
.bsurdi,y Of total abstinence and thousands
of Young men, often their own sons, are
deslro,e ed by such examples. Dr. Hewitt

SECRET DIPLoMAcY.-We must put an
end to this dishonest, nonsensical trifline, il
it really be not worse. Foreign affairs mus,
hencefor,h be the domain of all and be ex-
posed in great degree to parliament end
the public view. There in no magic in d.
plomacy tha. it must be made mystery of
like the worship Of the Bona Dea. Hence
forth, instead of appointing dandes and
noodles TO carry on negotiations, we should
appoint, as do the Americans, and some of
the Continental nations, men who have dis
tinguished themselves as lawyers, or schol-
ars, or savans, or as great merchan.s.-Bri-

NoAH's ARK AND THE CLIPPER SHIP
GREAT REPUBLIc.-The East Boston clip
per ship Great Republic, which was des-
troyed by fire in our harbor on Tuesday
morning, was said 10 have been the largest
vessel constructed since the days Of Noah's
Ark. She was three hundred and twenty
five feet long, and was supposed to be capa-
BILE Of carrying six thousand tons Of cargo
though only rated little over fout thou
sand FIVE hundred tons burthen. 1t may
be interesting at This time, since the two
vessels have been alluded to in this con-
neclion. to learn the dimensions of Noah's
Ark. There were ships bull. by the ancients,
i. appears, far superior in proportions, to the
modern ship of Mr.. Donald Mckay.
a ship " as constructed for Piolemy Phil
opa,er, which was 42O fee. long, Sc feet
broad, and 72 feet deep and Of 6, ,446 tons
bur,hen. Archimedes constructed ship
for Hero, King Of Syracuse, Of such large
dimensions, tha, none of the harbors in ST.
|ciy or Greece could receive it.
Noah's Ark, by those who are curious in
such things, has been calculated to have
contained 100000 cubic feet. and was of
l l,905 tons burthcn. A remarkable differ
ence between modern and ancient times in
state and condition, is exempliied in the
|" Grea. Republic" She was The property
