A REPUBLICAN Reilly 70 Mn SEWARD 5
SPEEcH-Thc New Hampshire Statesman,
Republican paper, says:
"Now let US inquire, in the name Of
common sense, of what avail is it to prove
by statistics that We pay three-fourthS of
all the revenues Of the Government, while
Southern consumers are our largest Gus
toners OF what avail is it to prove, TO
the satisfaction Of every politician, that We
supply the South with all that they wear,
from top knot to shoe latchet with
all that they use, from steam engine to a
friction match, when this very process feeds
our manufacturers Tbe South is as nee
cssary to the North as the North is to the
South. Massachusetts annually makes six
millions OF dollars worth of shoes. The
South is her best customer. When the
shoe business declines gaunt hunger stalks
through the streets OF her lourishing vii
lnges
New England is extensively engaged
in the manufacture Of cotton. We buy
the raw material Of the South and pay in
goods. When our spindlcs cease to whirl,
the operatives are threatened with starva-
ton. 1t is the spirit of hycna that bites
the hand that feeds it, 1t is high time to
cultivate fraterml feeling between the diff
ferent sections of our country Neither
commerce, manufactures nor agriculture
can flourish while the two hostile portions
Of our country endeavor to cripple and in
jure each other. Supposing we succeed in
convincing the South Of their dependence
on us for all they cat, aud wear. aud use /;
aud thus stimulate them to establish manu-
factories for themselves or divert their
trade into other channels, are we gamers
by the process ?
Suppose we prove that they are in
debted to us for all their literature and all
their teachers, and thus rouse their hostili

ever will come from this mutual elimination
and recrimination. 1t neither strengthens
the party nor hastcnS the downfall OF slave

to determine what institutions it will adopt
" Why, then, hoist he banner Of No
more slave States when the very corner

Parallel between Washington and Jackson.
BY HON. GEORGE MRsrow.

Washington, with Spartan virtue. resign,
ed a victorious sword, and retired from a
triumph. Jackson, with Roman lirNness
met the assaults Of corruption, struck dis.
may to the heart of treason. and perilled
fame and interest 10 the cause of national
reform Washington invested freedom with
every attribute that could win the affection
Of the citizen, Or command the respect OF
the world. Jackson foupled our national
policy in immutahlc principles Of justice,
established an indiSsoluble union between
the virtue and happiness Of people, and
taught the rulers OF the earth that national
good faith was the only condition on which
the peace Of the world could remain m
broken. The steady policy of Washington
was never shaken by the turbulence of fac
ton. The firm administration Of jackson
was never moved by the hoarse clamors of
avarice Both were lovers of fame; both
made it suhordinNe to the general interests
Of humanity. Both were endowed with
the tumultuous passions that always accom-
pany greatness, and sometimes mar its lus-
tire. Both were free from those petty vices
that often distigurc the finest characters in
history. Washington, like the sun, rose
amidst chaos Of jarring States aud dis
corGant interests, and all moved around him
in harmonious concert. jackson, like the
magnet, drew all elements to himself and
made the remotest sections of the Rrpub-
lie vibrate to central attraction, which
drew together aud united in one bond of
union the interests and wishes, the patriot
ism und enthusiasm of great nation
Both were influenced by permanent and
operative principle Of religion jackson
always acknowledged an overriding Power.
Washington never forgot TO pay homage to
the Most High.
Washington moved through life with the
bigh consciousness Of future accountability.
jackson was sustained in death by the live
ly hope of a glorious Immortality Humil-
ity was the constant ornament of Washing.
ton, md there is no appearance of ostenta-
tiOn in the whole career Of Jackson 1t
was the fortune of Washington to lay the
foundation Of our Temple of Liberty. 1t
was the fortune Of jackson to stand, like
the angel at the gate Of Paradise, and
guard the entrance with his flaming sword.
Washington was the father-Jackson the
saviour of his country. Both lived like
patriots, and died like men. Washington
in his day was FIRST in war, first in peace,

And yet he comes not. Once it was not 80.
He thinks not how the bitter tears do Tow
The while he holds bis riot in the town.
Yet he will come and chide. and shall weep,
And he will wake my infant from its sleep.

Over those sleeping eyes that smile which cheers
My heart, though sunk in sorrow thick and deep.

And Time, who stole with silent witness by,

Though he should spurn me l will calmly bear

Its paralyzing hand upon him, then

Until the penitent should weep, and say

ATMosPHERE OF THE SUN.-The sun has
a very dense atmosphere. What his body
must be, it is impossible to conjecture; but
he seems to be surrounded by notified
ocean of fame, through which bis dark M
cleus appears like black spots, often Of enor-
nous size. These spots are almost always
comprised within zone of the sons sur
face, whose breadth measured on solar
meridian, does not extend beyond thirty aud
one-half degrees on each side OF his equator,
though they have been seen ut the distance
Of thirty-ninc aud a-half degrees. From
their extensive and rapid changes, there is
every reason to suppose that tie exterior
and iucandescent part Of the sun is gaseous.
The solar rays, probably arising from chem
ical processes that continually take place
at his surface, or from electricity, are trans-
mitted through space in all directions; but
Notwithstanding the suns magnitude, and
the iaconceiyable heat that must exist at
his surface, as the intensity both Of bis
light and heat diminishes as the square oi
the distance increases, his influence can
hardly he felt at the boundaries of our sys
ten, or at all events it must be but feeble
The direct light Of the sun has been csti
mated to lie equal to that Of 5,563 wax
candles Of moderate size, supposed to be
placed at the distance Of one foot from the
object. That Of the moon is probably only
equal to the light of ono candle at tic dis
tancc Of twelve feet. Consequently, the
light Of the Sufhis more than three hundred
thousand times greater than that of th,
moon. Hence the light Of the moon i'm
parts no heat. 1t is believed, from receui
experiments, that the direct light Of tn,
moon is incapable Of raising thermometer
