A Portrait of Aaron Burr,


The New York correspondent Of the Viii
sled (Ct.) Herald has devoted half an hour at
the rooms Of Mesers. Williams and stedman,
to the study Of vanderlyn's portrait Of Burr.
He thus writes Of it:
To one who knows Burr's character, the
portrnit is absolutely astounding. Indeed,
though heard it was there, and went to sec
it, walked past it twice, looking straight at
it, and then was directed to 1t by d clerk. In
aginc Us Aaron Burr, the soldier, murderer,
sGducer, duclist, the rank aud rotten profigatc
in politics, in morals, in business, the most
audacious and cunning Of lawyers, plotters,
traitors--imagine gentleman Of early middle
age, fresh colorcd, with hair brushed up back
from his forehead and temples d ID sixty years
ago, the upright collar and elegant lace rufdes
Of the time, delicate clean cut nose, :. FORE
head in no way remarkable, arched distinct
dark eyebrows, eyes Of q dark liquid deep
brown, lips full, 8 chin narrow aud finely CHS
eled, and about the eyes and mouth most un-
mistakable expression Of sensitive, almost
feminine Sweetness and purity and unsophis-
ticated innocence. That is absolutely and
definitely the character Of the portrait The
owner, gentleman In Brooklyn, Will sell 1t,
but does not say for how much. It wonld be
perfectly safe to put 1t in your parlor and call
it 3 Portrait Of 4 young clergyman"

A Young Woman in a Fredfcanoent-
Disadvantage Of Fashionable ApPar-
ri In ChnFch.

A. XouDE Woman In Fred1canaent-
Disadvantage Of Fashionable Appar-
el In Church.
The Richmond (va) Whig says, few Sun
days ago, modest young man Of our aequain-
tango attended the morning service In one of
our fashionable churches, He was kindly
shown into q luxuriantly cushioned pew. and
had hardly settled himself, and taken an obser-
vation Of his neighbors, before q beautiful
yoang lady entered, and, with graceful wave
Of the hand preventing our friend from rising
to give her his place quietly sunk into seat
neslr the end. When hymn was given out,
she skillfu1ly found the page, and, with asweet
smile that set his heart humping, handed her
neighbor the book The minister raised his
hands in prayer, aud the fair girl knelt, and, in
this posture perp1exed her friend to know
which most to admire, her beauty or her de-
yontness. Presently, the prayer was eouclu-
ded, and the congregation resumed their seats.
Our friend respectfully raised his eyes from
the fair form he had been SO earnestly scan
ming, lest, when she would look up, she would
dctect him staring at her. After couple Of
seconds, he darted fugitive glance at bis
on her knees he looked closely and saw that
she was deeply affected, trembling in violent
agitation, no doubt, from the eloquent power
Of the preacher. Deeply eympathising, he
watched her closely.
Her emotion became more violent; reach1ng
utF uaIlu Deulu0 ueT, she WOQ40 CCuFENlFely
grasp her clothing, and strain, as it were, to
rend the brilliant fabric Of her dress. The
sight WIS exceedingly painful to behold, but
be still gazed, like one entranced, with wonder
and establishment. After minute, the lady
raised her face, heretofore concealed in the
cushion, and, with her hand, made an unmis-
taxable heckon to our friend He quickly
moved along the pew toward her, and inclined
his ear, US she evidently wished to say some
thing.
"Flease help me, sir" she whispered, "my
dress has caught, and can't get up"
the difficulty. The fair girl wore fashionable
high-heelcd shoes; kneeling on both knees,
these heels Of course struck out at right angles,
md, in this position, the highest hoop Of her
new tangled skirt caught over them, and thus
rendered it impossible for her to raise herself
or straighten her limbs The more she
struggled, the tighter she Was bound; so she
was constrained to call for help. This Was
Immediately, if not scientifically, rendered;
aud, when the next prayer was made she
merely inclined herself upon the back of tho
front thinking, no doubt, that she was
not in praying costume.

COMPENSATION FOR NEGROES.

SOMI 1AON cOn NGOnOGSs
The seventh amendment proposed by the
Peace Conference is as follows:
Congress shall provide by law that the
United shall pay to the owner the full valse Of
his fugitive from labor, in all cases where the
marshal, or other officer, whose duty it was to
arrest such fugitive, was prevented from 80
doing by violence or intimidation from mobs
or riotous assemblages, or when, after arrest,
such fugitive was rescued by like violence or
intimidation, and the owner thereby deprived
of the same aud Congress shall provide by
law for securing to the citizens Of each State the
privileges and immunties of the sevefal
States"
Upon this tho States of this city, an ultra
Southern organ, observes:
"The proposition is, when reduced to prac-
tical matter Of fact, nothing but q prenium
offered by the United States Government for
the building Of mammoth underground rail,
read, and the stealing Of negroes on a regular
and systematized plan. Moreover, in making
the United States treasury bounty shop for
negro thieves, it compels the South to give q
portion Of the money. TGus every owner Of q
stolen and rescued negro, after having had to
identify and probably fight to reclaim bis prop
erty, or sustain the right to be paid for it, con.
tributes, out of his own pocket, no inconsider.
able sum Of the money which is to be handed
back as payment therefor"
1t would, in truth, be difficult to frame q
proposition so as to give offence to more nu-
merous and more various classes of persons.
1t is indefensible, in point of principle, to
make the whole people Of the country pecu.
piarily responsible, for what they cannot be
morally responsible by any stretch Of construc
ton. 1t is right to amerce localities for disor
ders which they have the means, and are under
obligations, to prevent. But to tax the people
of Virginia for acts done in New Jersey is q
very different thing.
In Pennsylvania, counties have been made
responsible for outrages upon property com.
mitted by mobs, and this law is found to work
well in practice, by preventing such outrages.
This seventh amendment of the Peace Con.
ference is not likely to satisfy everybody. II
would cause the rescue Of almost every slave
arrested in the free States. The owners would
acquiesce under the prospect of indemnity, and
as the rescues would not occasion any private
loss, nobody would be inclined to oppose much
resistance to them.
