Moral Essay.

Is it possible in passing through
the vicissitudes and changes of this
inconstant life, through tie lights
and the shadows, the calms and the
storms, thejoy and the sorrows, the
successes and adversities, to possess q
feeling OF constant cheeriulne>s ard
submission II? Can hope and trust
become SO strong III the human
breast, as to crownevely experience
With a chaplet of serene composure
and happy security? If assimila
ton be the law Of intellectual and
moral expansion, we have 10 reason
to doubt gradual development in
that direction. In the attainment
of knowledge the effort is to assim-
ilate the mind to standards ofscien-
tiffic attainment. So is it in the
arts, and in all the pursuits Of life.
The nearer the aspirant approaches
the model in thought and practice,
the more perfect he becomes in the
estimation of those who accept the
model as the standard Of perfection.
In this life there can be no absolute
perfection, but there can be a grad
ual approximation in that direction,
if the model be furnished, and the
way to it be clearly defined. Finite
man, unaided, could never arrive at
a conception of the attributes of
moral perfection. The history of
idolatry the world over proves this.
ieIdolatry and infidelity have always
made men more and more degraded.
| The Bible, however, presents a per-
feet model of moral assimilation. 1t
is the product Of Divine wisdom,
and is attainable by every human
intelligence. We look at the at
tributes Of the great Model present
ed by the Bible. We see perfect
knowledge /; perfect holiness; per-
feet happiness /; perfect constancy.
Pursuing these great channels of
development, the farther we so, the
nearer we approach, and the more
we become like the great Model. In
proportion, then, as hope and trust
and effort are absorbed moulding
the moral nature into the likeness
and image of God, is assurance OF
guidance and protection in time and
eternity secured, and cheerful:
happy contentment will be expe-
rienced. $3.50

death, at Houston in tna State, yesterday after.

army. He was born in Virginia about the year 1870
and entered West Point Military Academy in July,
1925, graduating fifteenth In his class IN $780,
During the war with Mexico he served with distin-
guished gallantry, receiving two brevets-the
last that Of lieutenant colenel-for meritorious
conduct on the battle field. At the out.
break OF the rebellion he obtained the rank OF
major general. He commanded the Confederates at
the battle OF Big Bethel, IN which he defeated the
federals under Ben Butler. In 1862 he was in com.
mand on the Peninsula, but was subsequently sent
10 Petersburg, where 20 his delay has been attT-
buted the failure OF Lee to cut McClelans line OF
retreat upon the James during the seven days.
battles before Richmond. General Magruder
subsequently sent to Texas, and while
there recaptured Galveston from federal forces.
few months later he made campaign in
New Mexico and Arizona, gaining some advantages
at first, but was finally compelled to retreat. lie
did nothing OF consequence during the remainder Of
the rebellion, and on its close went to Mexico,
where he obtained position from Maximilian. on
the overthrow OF the empire he returned to the
United States, settling in Texas.
General Magruder was a remarkably handsome
man and very vain OF his personal appe arance. He
was the arstOcrat of arist0crats In the Old army,
but, Notwithstanding his haateur, was social and

THE JOINT HIGH COMMISSION.
Growing Feeling In Warrington Favorable to
an Absolute Withdrawal Of the British Flag
from Our Continent-Ths Basis Of Nego-
tiations, a. Arranged Between Score
tary Fish and Minister Thornton.

WASHINGTON, Feb TO- 1871
With reference to the approaching meeting Of the
Joint High Commission. the feeling among promi-
nenI parties without distinction OF party here is uni
versally in favor OF the idea that no settlement OF
our differences with Great Britain WIN be sarsfac-
tory to the people OF the United States so long as
the British nag as the symbol OF monarchy remains
upon this Continent. 1t seems to be conceded that
the resolution which Mr.. Howard introduced into
the Senate yesterday does not cover all the ground
That resolution recommended that the Commission
might, in any settlement suggested by them,
embrace the cession to the United States OF
so much at least of such British posses
sions as lies to the westward Of Hudson
Bay and the main channels connecting it with
the Arctic Ocean and the outlet of Lake Superior,
with the right OF navigation through all navigaDle
waters to the Atlantic and Arctic oceans. Mr..
Cameron having objected to immediate action, the
resolution lies over under the rule There Is an
impression that the resolution is but the prelude to
the expression OF more sweeping sentiments, in
cordance with popular opinion, on the subject Of
the settlement OF our difficulties with Great Britain
in connection with the doctrine Of manifest des-
tiny.
1t seems that before both governments agreed to
the appointment Of Joint High Commission, 1t was
arranged between Mr.. Fish and Sir Edward Thorn.
ton as preliminary basis of negotiation that the
British government would agree to pay from
fifteen TO twenty-five millions Of dollars and
cede British Columbia to the United States
in consideration Of the Alabama claims
AS an offset to the money matter, however, the
counter claims OF British subjects would come in.
1t Is argued by distinguished statesmen here that
the cession OF British Columbia will not suffce to
secure o satisfactory settlement with the United
States. The payment Of from s15,ooo.0Oo to
$22O00,000 by Great Britain is regarded as
but Of small account. especially as the
British claims might c0unterDalance the actual
Alabama matter bill. The feeling here that II
Great Britain does not consent to withdraw her flag
from this Continent the Commission cannot come to
any satisfactory settlement and certainly without
such concession no convention which the Commits.
sion may arrange will win receive the sanction Of
the Senate.

BOSTON, Feb. 10, 1871.
The feeling here concerning the safety OF the
United States steamer Tennessee is daily becoming
more uneasy. The opinions that she has gone to
bottom and will never be heard from again, and the
theories that she Is still safe, are shared about
evenly by the community Seafaring men generally
indulge in the belief that disaster has befe her
but their well-founded reasoning does not wholly
dsplace the fearful apprehensions OF those who
have relatives and friends on board The brig
Elsey which cleared from Cape Hayten on the 21st
ult. for this port arrived late last night Captain
Roberts, upon being Informed Of the mammoth
steamship seen by Captain Hodgkins of the brig
Baker, or st. Nicholas mole on the 10th ult says
that he Is quite positive that she was the Swatara
and not the Tennessee. The latter steamer, he
airms, could not possibly have been there at that
time, and the Swatara very likely was, and she
would have been heading in the direction which
Captain Hodgkins described.
