"Whereas our spirits have been greatly
refreshed by what we have heard of the

Resolved, l. That we hereby publicly

get Union Meetings for prayer for the
out-pouring Of the Spirit, established at our
respective stations, and also at other stations
wherever we may find two or three willing
to meet together in the name oe Chris.
And further, being convinced f. N the
signs OF the times that God has still large
blessings in store for his people, and for our
ruined race, and that lie now seems to be
ready and waiting to bes,ow them as asked,
therefore -
Resolred, 8. That we appoint the second
week in January, 1860, beginning with
Monday the 9Th, as time of special prayer

day, that is, Sabbath the l4h, be n holy
convocation for thanksgiving and praise :;
that the intervening time be spent in pri.
vate and social exercises of PRAYER and
praise, rs the circumstances of each com.
mu"'ty may dictate that all Gods people

JAcKsoN's PRONUNCIATION.

In proof that Jackson had once been a
pupil of DR.. WaddelI, an anecdote was rela.
ted to me by one Of theGeneral's most init.
mate friends and fellow-soldicrs. General
Jackson, as his associates remember, had
certain peculiari,ies of pronunciation, to
which he always adhered. For example,
be ,oouH pronounce the word development
as though it were written dsvilope ment,
with strong accent upon ope. One day,
during his Presidency, he so pronounced it,
when in conversation with foreign minis.
Ter, who, though not English, had been
educated in England, and p!umed himself
upon h,s knowledge and nice pronunci alton
ofthe English language. "Devil.ope.ment,'
said The 4 General. with emphasis. The
ambassador lifted his eyebrows slightly, and
in the course Of sentence or. two, took c.
casion TO pronounce the word correctly.
The President, seeming not to remark his
excellencys benevolent intsption, again said
'desiLope.ment;;" whereupon the tsstidous
minister ventured,opce mores to gire tile

PORTRAIT OF A PLEASANT FELLOW

In the following portion of sketch Of
the late RoLer, Stephenson, the Engineer,
writer in "Once Week" gives us a type Of
man we'll worth preserving as model
"In society he was simply charming and
fascinating in the highest degree, from his
natural goodness of heart, and the genial
zcst with which he relished life himself, and
participated in its enjoyment with others.
He was generous, and even princely, in his
expenditure-not upon himself but on his
fricnds-and his love of the English pas.
time Of yachting amounted almost to
passion. On board the Titania, or at bis
bouse in Gloucester square, his frequent
and numerous guests found his splendid
resources at all times converted 10 their
qualification with grace Of hospitality
which, although sedulous, was never op-
pressive. Tbe,e was nothing of the patron
in his manner, or of the Olympic condes-
cension which is sometimes affected by
much lesser men. A friend land how many
friends he had J was at once his equal, and
treated with republican freedom, yet with
the most high.bred courtesy and gentle
consideratencss. We may doubt whether
any Of the celebrated reccption.houses Of
our aristocracy ever afforded more delight
ful gatherings than those with which Step
henson's expansive tates surrounded him in
his home. Men ofscience, letters, art, great
travellers, engineers, young and old OF both
sexes, and Of varied accomplishments, gave
to his reunions completeness the striking
that it never seemed to be anxiously aimed
at. Surrounded by his choice collection Of
modern works of art, or explaining his
philosophical apparatus, or battling some
scientific thesis, or exchanging some
sprighlly banter in social circle, the image
of Robert Stephenson will rise up before
his friends as pillar bearing the record Of
some Of their happiest hours. What
favorite he was with all, especially with
woman and young persons! No one who
eojoyed his intimacy can forget the easy
and familiar manner in which lie was accus-
toned to enlarge on interesting but abstruse
points Unnatural philosophy. But to ladies
and the yonng especially, he made point
of explaining every thing with moro than
usual care and defniteness, never quitting
the subject until he was satisfied that be
had been perfectly understood"

THE FIRST MEDALLIoN PORTRAIT.

AS the daughter of Dbutades went,
draped in her veil, to the marketplace, she
often met youth, who aflerward became
an assistant to her father in lis work. lie
was skilled in much learning unknown to
the secluded girl, and in playing on the
reed and the daily life Of father, daughter,
and lover presented an illustration Of
Grccian life and beauty. The youth was
constrained at length to depart, but ere he
went the VOWS Of betrotbal were exchanged
between him and Kora. Their e:e Of par
ting was sad one.s AS they sat together
by the lamplight the maiden suddenly rose,
and, taking up piece of pointed charcoal
from the brasier, and bidding the young
man remain still, she traced on the wall
the cutline Of his fine Grecian profile, as
memorial when he should he far away.
Dibutades saw the sketch she had made,
and recognised the likeaess. Carefully he
filled the outline with clay, and complete
medallion WAS formed. It was the first
portrait in relief! Thus a new art was born
into the world, the development Of which
brought fortune and fame to The inventor!
The story is, at least, as probable as that Of
Saurias discovering the rule Of sketching
and contour from the shadow of his house.
It was neither the first nor the last time
Love became teacher. Might not the
fable of Memnon thus find its realzation2
1t is related that Dibutades, who had fol-
lowed up his medallions with busts, became
SO celebrated that many Grecian states
claimed the honor OF his birth and that
his daughters lover, who came back to
aspouse her, modelled while figures in Cor
intb. A school for modelling was instituted
about this time in Sicyonin, Of which Di-
butades was the founder Woman Artists
in all Sges and Countries.
