Not one s' liable penned by eight obscure authors of the Scriptures of the New Testament, received' by the Church as canonical at the death of St. John, has been lost during eighteen centuries. Y-*t of (he Historical Works of Tacitus, half at least are wanting; out of the one hundred and for y fom books of Livy, only thirty live exist the collections of Athens have entirely perish ed ; (lit orations of Ilortensious are known only through the allusions of his lival ; and the lue-ary fame of the great Dictator survives but I in two narratives one of which lias been some times doubted.

"Each lonely place shall him restorc, For him the tear be duly shed, Beloved till life can charm no more. And mourn’d till pity’s self be dead.” Veneration for the dead is a sentiment laid deep and strong in the human heart, and may be discovered, in some form, among all nations. L is me province of philosophy to explain the origin and nature of this veneration, and to phi losophers I yield the elucidation. That it spi mgs, however, from the belie! in the immor tality of the soul, which seems to be incorpo rated in our natures, is highly probable—l may sav certain. The unlettered child of nature does not believe, that the cold and livid form which meets his eyes is all that remains of him he siw yes erday the emblem of st re ugh and moving in native grace and "beauty. An un sophisticated understanding has taught him, that man is destined to exist separate from the body though the mode of this existence is to him a mvstery ; and tho respect which he shows to the “sensless lump of earth,” is prompted by the belief that his friend still lives an airy spec tator of transpiring scene, and that his happi ness, in his new state of being, is, in some way connected with the tie unient of his own desert ed tenement. The influence of a simple and cultivated state of society on the exhibition of this sentiment, m»v be seen in the contrast of an English fu neral in town, and in the retired village. In the former it is a stately ami frigid pageant, made up of show and gloomy parade; mourn ing plumes, and bending mourners, who mike a mockery of grief. In the latter where the customs of rural life still linger, it is a beautiful and simple-hearted ceremony, exhibiting no imposing splendor, but much to touch the heart. Il is tho reign of deep and solemn stillness, broken only by the half stifled sob which occa sion dly escapes the murmuring train, and the knell, as it steals with its prevailing melancholy over everv hill and vale, saddening all the land scape. The pageant, if I miy be allowed the term, is comprised in strewing flowers before the funeral and planting them upon tho newly srtgde grave. ’ 5t is greatly to be regretted tint a custom so 1 truly elegant and touching as the one to which I have alluded, should have disappeated from general use, and exist only in the more remote and insignificant villages. It is, however, con sonant with all history and experience. The simple customs of rural life have never shunned ihe walks of civilized society, and it must be ' added the keen feeling also which gave them birth has commonly ceased to thrill thtough the bosom. The remark seems to be founded in truth, that “in proportion as people grow polite, they care to Le poetical.” Friendship becomes "a name. A charm that hills to sleep.. A shade that follows wealth or fame, But leaves the wretch to weep and sympathy, one of the loveliest virtues which adorns human nature, is checked in its free im pulses, while its more affecting and simple ex hibiiions are supplied by studied form and pompous ceremonial. This tendency of things is greatly to be de precated, especially its agency in obliterating the associations of sacredness which are natur ally connected with the circumstances and place of interment. The church-yard is surely one of the holy spots of earth. It is there that we seem to stand upon the verge of two worlds. "Beneath us lie the countless dead, Above us is the 11 eavens.” The grave is also the ordeal of truly human ( affection. It is there that the divine passion of I the soul shows its superiority to tho instinctive , attachment of the .brute : foE-tlv i-x® of the afl i nal must be continually refreshed by the pres ence of the object, but the love ol the human I soul can live on long remembrance. I The sorrow for the dead is the only sorrow I from which we refuse to be divorced. Every • 'other wound we seek to heal—every other as- fliction to forget ; but this wound we consider it a duty to keep open—this affliction we cher ish and brood over in solitude. The remem brance may open the flood-gates ot sorrow, and I send keen and bitter pangs of grief through the ‘soul—be it so, better this than to sink into , dull, dark, and stupid forgetfulness, Where is the child that would willingly forget the most tender of parents, though to remember be but to lament ? No, the love which survives the tomb is one ot the noblest attributes of the soul. .It it has its woes it has its delights. When the i first wild burst of anguish is passed—when that . awful sense of loneliness—of the wreck of all I that was beautiful and lovely, has become calm . ed into subdued tenderness and p.iace in medita tion—who would blot out such sorrow from the heart?—who would dry up such a fountain of grief ? At a moment like this what a place of mournful, blissful recollection is the Grave ! tho grave which buries every crtoi —covers every defect—extinguishes every resentment. ' It is here that we call to mind all ibose traits I which we once loved—those numberless offices ' of tenderness—friendly counsels, kind admoni | tions, soft, sweet accentsol consolation. Thon I too we dwell on the tenderness, the awful, so lemn tenderness of the parting scene—the bed ol death, with all its stifled griefs, its mute, watchful assiduities—the feeble thrilling, oh ! how thrilling! pressure of the hand —the faint, faltering accents, struggling in death to give one ' more assurance of affection ! | Reader, if thou hast ever mourned over ruin led hopes, go to tho grave of buried love, and meditate. Call to mind every unkind look, every ungenerous word, every ungentle action, towards that departed being who can never, never return to be soothed by thy contrition. Settle the account with thy conscience, and turn , thy weeping eyes to heaven to seek forgiveness theie. THE DEAD. i In our silent musings upon tiie charcatcristics of human nature, we hive often dwelt with pleas i ure on hejahnost universal reverence winch is I entertained for the memory and the mortal re- I mains of the dead. This is a bright spot on the dark escutcheon of human character, that ( shine out with additional splendor when con trasted with the many gloomy lines that consti tute the picture. Ii is a remarkable fact, tiial even among the most barbarous savages, a sen timent of solemn awe is associated with the idea of (he mortal lemams of a deceased friend— We have never heard of a people, however bar barous and far removed from civilization—how ever cruel in their treatment of an enemy—wiio did not entertain the kindest and most respect ful feelings towards their deceased countrymen and friends. Funeral rites are performed by every people under the sun ; and however va rious and unlike may be these ceremonies among different nations, still they are all performed with a degree of uncommon interest. In all civalized countries, the grave has been considered as the resting place of deceased mortals ; and the grave-yard is looked upon as a sacred spot, and its hallowed retreats are re | garded with a feeling of awe bordering on su i perstition. To mark these sacred spots, and jto guard the little hillocks from the careless ! tread of the wonderer, the affection of surviving ! friends prompts the erection of monuments, I which stand as centinels to ward off all profane and unhallowed intrusions. So sacred have these mementos ever been considered, that we have never but in one instance heard of their being intentionally and carelessly violate. And with shame to the character of our hitherto peaceful and reputable city, we are compelled 1 to add that one instance occurred in our own 1 burying ground, only a few nights since. What ’; could have sunk men so fir beneath the level of humanity, as to prompt them to this deed of . ' wanton and unprovoked sacrilege, is more than we can divine. We are glad to be enabled to * add, that our worthy M tyor has promptly offer ’ jed a reward for the discovery oi the ruffians ’ | who have thus disgraced the name of men, and ’ ■ that no means will be left untried for their ap prehension.—ib. From the Columbus Democrat. »| The following letter from a Representative y in Congress, republished from the last Enqui rer, is said by those who saw it in manuscript, land believed, to be, from the pen of A. S. [ Clayton. How it tallies with his other publish ed opinions, we leave for his particular friends and admirers to explain. For ourselves, we have all along believed in the patriotism and in tegrity of Mr. Clay, and have stood up in the defence of both in the face of prejudice and de- i hision. But when such men as Clayton hail ; him as the object of their veneration, we begin i to faultcr in our firm faith of the purity of the man; when wo find him shaking hands with Nullfication, and Clayton crying grandissimo ! we begin to suspect that there may have been something more in tho charge ol bargain and corruption, than our philosophy ever dre.nt ol! But as Ritchie says— nous verrons. Washington City, February 11, 1833. niv dear sir—l received your kind favor of the 31st uh. and if you could only see the weigh, and pressure of my correspondence [a very j Atlas, this Clayton, upon whom rests the weight i of the world.] you would rather pity th in com- ; plain of my neglect of you. Recollect my dear I sir, that a whole state commands my servises— j I not only as to their right to hear what is going on at this place, of which they fully avail them selves, but I am overwhelmed with letters on these various branches of business, all of which must be answered, viz. Pensions, Post-Routs, Post-Offices. Post-Masters, Mail Contractors. Land Warrants, Land Patents. Then ap pointments in the Armv, Navy, Land Officers, . Indian Department, Military Academy and va rious other subjects too tedious to mention—so ■ lbai I hayfL had_jjpon my table at one time ’ i seventy letters to answer. [Poor man, he will certainly break down, under the excessive fa -1 tigue, which all this labour imposes—we won der he does not resign and get rid of it.] Be sides this one who speaks in Congress, [aye and so much to the purpose as Mr. Clayton does, and makes such pretty quotations from the play books,] must read and reflect upon the ques tions which he expects to discuss, and then af ter he performs this task ; another is immedi« 1 ; ately imposed, to reduce his speech to writing. [Because why ? If he did not write his speech ' es, Duff Green could not print them, nor the ’ Nullies in Georgia read them, nor the regular bangers on puff’ them, and then would cease to jbe a great man.] What time then have I for 1 voluntary correspondence with friends ? I fl it i ter myself I have now removed all cause for 1 i mortification in what you supposed to be a list less unconcern, in giving you tho events of this i vile seat of every species of profligacy. [We j have understood that political profligacy was j very rife at Clayton’s quarters.] . j To-day the tariff question has taken a new . direction. After debating it for six weeks, and i all hopes of an adjustment was lost sight of, Mr. Clay, gave notice in the Senate that he should, on to-morrow introduce a Bill to com promise the tariff and give peace and quiet to the country. As soon as it was known in the House, it produced the most wonderful sensa tion. The Jackson and Van Buren Collar men immediately set their heads to work to got ahead of Clay upon the bill then pending before us. Drayton and Wayne moved to re-commit the bill with instructions to report a bill to suffer the act of the last year to operate one year, and then reduce the duties therein specified, one third and there let them remain. What a ri ' diculous movement, and how far from being n I just accommodation of this agitating question? Van Buren’s friends from Neiv-York, proposed to make the act of last year the basis, unequal as it is, upon which to commence a gradual re duction of duties, five per cent, a year, until they would produce a revenue offifteen millions of dollars, and t when that point wt’s reached to stop. The effect of this plan would be this: ail the high duties, which are on protected ar ticles, would be lessened conparatively but lit tle, but the small duties upon unprotected arti cles would soon run out : consequently the re duction of the revenue would be principally i upon these latter articles, and thereby leave the I whole burthen upon the unprotected articles, greatly increasing the inequality of tux ition. 1 have understood that Clay’s bill will pro- ■ pose to reduce gradually tiie duties down to , twenty per cent, in seven years, and uf;ei that they are to be solely an advalorem duty upon all articles equally, except some few that have always been duty free. And if this rate of duty should produce more than the wants of the government require, they are to be still further reduced by the powers then in being. If he is honest, sincere, open and candid in this adjust ment, I have no hesitation in saying he should be hailed ns a benefactor of mankind, and he will have claims upon our support far beyond that of any other politician now before the American people. He will sweep from our confidence such dotards as eld Jackson, [“Such dotards as old Jackson !” this is throwing off the misk with a vengeance. How long is it since Clayton dated to call our illustrious President tin old do tard before the people of Georgia ? If we re , collect right, during 11.e pendency of his last | election, he pretended to be a whole hog Jack- ■ son man. But was he dissembling then, or is he ■ courting the favor of Clay now ?] such drivil lers as Van Buren and such absolutists as Web ster. I begin to have strong hopes the ques tion will now be settled. Before this move ment I had given up every thing in despair— There is evidently an alarm among the collar men, and rather than let Clay settle his question, they will do every thing in theii power to effect lit themselves. If they bad made half the effort to pass the tariff bill which they have employed to put down South Carolina, it would long since . have been adj usted. Well these Enquirer boys may play the very mischief a squirting dirty water, and their last essay has excited our especial wonder and ad miration. Such a copious and continuous flow of beautiful metaphors, such a discriminating taste for sweet scented words, mixed up with kindly epithets ! Nme but the devil of the establishment could have been capable of such a production, and for him it is a masterpiece ! Why he must have swallowed a billingsgate dic ; tionary, soaked in the office tub, and taken cal omel on it ; Some as<ert hat <he worthy oritor i assisted in giving the cotzp <7c grace ; but of this 'wo think wn may safely clear him. He i. 3 too pretty a man himself to throw away unnecessrily upon others so many fine compliments, which L might have been more safely bestowed at home. To be sme the epithets of knight of the rueful i countenance; baboon in feature, &,c. &,c. may i i not have been altogether misplaced when appli- j jed to our respectable physiognomy ; but, bless I j the man,how much more accurate would have i been his judgement had he appropriated them i all to himself! This then, we think proof j enough that the Enquirer’s devil is alone re- i sponsible for the whole of this beautiful produc- i tion. Then this boast of not being scared at i newspaper paragraphs, is perfectly in character; why should he be ? they are his daily food ; and again, his ambition to “measure his arms with the redoubted editor of the Democrat” a natural aspiration. His grand eloquence of style j and bombast, with an occasional palgiarism, are i matters of course. As he gives us to under- I stand that he has not yet closed his notice of us and probably harbors the design of discharging a column or too more next week, it would be ungenerous in us to say more in regard to his labors at this time. THE OPPOSITION. General Jackson has piomptly met the call made upon him by the Nulliliers in the Scnat . of the United Stales, and has transmitted iu ’ that body, copies of the various orders, 17 in I number, given to the commanding officers of] the military and naval forces on the Charleston slation. They have been completely foiled in their object, in making this call upon the Pres ident. They hoped, no doubt, to find some thing in (hose documents that would serve to blow into a tempest, the little breeze winch they have been enabled by hard puffing, to raise in opposition to the administration. But, mark how completely the judicious course pur sued by the President, in this matter has baffled all the plans, schemes and intrigues of his op ponents. Instead of the Tyiant, “who would whip a State into the Union,” the temper and character of these orders, prove the President to be the very reverse. Instead of the ambitious despot, thirsting for power and empire, they prove him to be the mild and conciliating Chief Magestrate—the friend to order, peace and U nion. He says in his orders to Commodore Elliot “In the present inflamed condition of the public mind, in a portion of the community there, you will use scrupulous caution to give no just occasion for offence, and will enjoin on your officers and crew tiie utmost moderation and fmbcarance in their department,consistent with their duty to the Law and Constitution. i “Your acts will be confined entirely to the 1 defensive—giving relief to those in distress, ?.nd to those under attacks from illegal force— -1 ; and will exercise the greatest vigilance to co ■ | operate with the commander of the forts in that neighborhood, in defending the public works and public property, from aggression, in jury, or capture, by violent and illegal assaults, from any quarter whatever.” The above is a fair specimen of them all. They are of a strictly defensive and even pa cific character, evincing the earnest desire of the President to termininate the controversy with South Carolina, without an appeal to arnn, unless driven to that dreati resort in re pelling aggression. Gen. Jackson says, in his message accompa nying the documents called for by the Senate— “No order lias al any time been given to resist the constituted authority of the State of South Carolina, within the chartered limits of that j State.”— South. Banner. An article inserted in our paper yesterday and ] to-day, calling Ihe attention ol our citizens, to the | approaching inauguration of the President of the United States, propose that a meeting should be ' held this evening, .at the Exchange at halt’ past , 7 o’clock, lor the purpose of adopting some ap propiiate arrangements expressive of the public sentiment of this community, on the joyous occa sion. ' ( No matter who is to be inaugurated, it has here tolore been considered an anniversary, a festival in (he Democratic Calendar, and celebrated ac cordingly, with more or less enthusiasm. The inauguration of Jefferson, was hailed with ac c amation by the whole republican interest which had risen up in its lull strength and majesty to crush the usurpation.; and aristocracy of the Ad ams adaministration. There are an equal good and substantial reasons for exultation and its usual demonstrations on the re-election of the "Hero of Orleans.” That re-election has preserved the integrity of thf union, and defeated — lorever we hope—the machinations ofa faction, as dangerous to the true liberties and interests of the people, as were tho avowed objects, and principles ot the ohs Federal party National Kfpublican ism advocating and supporting as it has done, the United States’ Bank, manufacturing monopoly, in ternal improvements, and ail other measures dese crated by the principles of the Constitution, is and was in disguise, nothing more than a resusci tation ot the old federal school. 'I he ic-elec'ion of Gen. Jackson has given a a death blow to its intrigues and expectations, and therefore, his inauguration will be record ed among the most distinguished, signal, and triumphant events in the annals of democracy.--- All friends to the Union, we confidently expect, will avail themselves of the invitation given to celebrate it with becoming honors, as being the most auspicious, that could have occurred to man ifest their adhesion and undituinished devotion to the principles which have again--placed Andrrw Jackson at the helm of our beloved confeder acy.---s«v. Rep. ; THE MESSAGE AND THE PROCLAMATION. | ; We publish to-day, two pieces from the J Globe, showing the consistency between the President's Proclamation and his former mes- ' sages. Wo commend them to the attentive ' perusal of our readers. It is well known, that although the sentiments avowed in the ptocla- ' mation, meet with general approbation, a few I have aken exception to it, and endeavored to j maintain that there was an inconsistency be- 1 tween the opinions there expressed and the re- t publican doctimes maintained in all Ins former ; communications. He wis bv some stigmatised ! as h ivt'ig adopted the federal creed which has j been so long and so justly deprecated, and a« having assumed tho principles advocated by < such men as Hamilton, Adams, Clay and Web ster. We believe, with the qtiaker, it is often worse to give a man a bad name than any oth er infliction. Doubtless many will hear tho | outcry against the proclamation, repeat the ob jections to it, and echo the sentiments of repro- ( bation uttered against it, without ever examin ing whether they have any foundation in truth . or justice. To those, however, who wish judge correctly, and not to condemn without a bearing, on imaginaary grounds, on unfounded * suspicions, tortured expressions or perverted interpolations, we would recommend a careful perusal of these explanatory essays of the Globe. The subject itself is interesting. Our Government is an anomaly in this world, ft is beneficial, occasionally, to look back to its origin and consider its nature. Too many aredisposd to stretch the powers of the Gener al Government until it shall consolidate al! authority within its own sphere ; while, on tho other hand, a few, refining upon the doctrine of State rights, extracts from the old acknowl edged republican doctrines, the new and im practicable principle of nullification. A me dium between these two extremes, seems to us he safest course, as wed as wise in itself and ikelytobc attended with the most beneficial onsequcnces. I If a State may nullify a law and prevent ifs 1 execution within her limits, the present union is no better than the old confedetacy; a rope of sand that can never be held together; and the sages who formed the constitution and those who have extolled their wisdom in mak ing it, have been all deceived—For they have made an impracticable government—-But if they have provided for the execution of consti tutional laws and the punishment of those who rebel against them, so far they have done well. How much greater praise do they deserve, if they have also provided the most effectual bar riers against (he encroachments of the Gener al Government and against the anarchy which may ensue from the combination of desperate men and disappointed politicians, under pre tence of supporting state rights. Time must determine whether they have resolved this prob lem in politics.— -Knox. Reg. From the Georgia Courier. Athens, February 10. In reviewing the transactions of the few past weeks, 1 deem it necessary that the public should be correctly informed with regard to the various reports in circul ition relative to Nullification in Franklin College. 1 am influenced to such a course of conduct solely by the consideration that ■ such are well calculated to injure the college in the . estimation of the community at large. ! As to the resolutions which were published iu some of the papers in this State, and which pur ported to have been passed by a majorily of the College—l shall attempt briefly to give their ori gin : In the first place a meeting of the Students was colled by some officious gentlemen lor the purpose of adopting Resolutions, &c—After a Chairman had been appointed and the House called to order, it was proposed that a committee he appointed to draft resolutions and to report on the day following at 1 o’clock, as that was the only hour in which such discussion could be carried on. This motion was debated for some time, until final ly, the Nullifiersperceiving a large majority opposed to them, the meeting was broke up in a row and all attempts to do business, proved abortive. The nullifiers were then requested to remain ; another t chairman was appointed and then the committee was also appointed. The next day when the meet ing assembled again, out of about one hundred stu- I dents about 45 or 50 were present, a bare majority lof whom voted for the resolutions. Thus ori- I ginated the Resolutions which purported to have been passed by a majority of the students II has since been ascertained that there are 35 in favor of the resolutions, and 63 against them, and yet it is asserted that all the students are nullifiers. Du ring till this time the faculty made the utmost ex ertions to pul down every thing of the kind as far , as the law authorized. As to burning General Jackson in effigy, which has been so authoritatively announced in some of the patriotic papers of this State, J consider it ne cessary to say n (ew words. In the first place, it is stated that he was "hung anil burnt amid shouts of applause” from all the students. Now this is ab solutely false, as a great many of the theories of the author of that letter are. It is trwe, that a few upstarts, ambitious of distinction, like Erostratug in burning the I’emple ot Diana, hoping to make themselves known in some way or other, did hang and burn Jackson in effigy. When lhe effigy was hung out of one of the windows of College, which Happened immediately alter prayers in the evening, there was indeed considerable shonting, but it hap pnned to result from a large majority of the students who were playing at ball in the campus immediately in front of lhe College. I state confidently that not more than 12 or 15 were iu favor of h inging the effigy and of them two have since been dismissed. When the burning took place, which was at night, not more than five or six were present, and they were so bold that they skainpered in all directions as soon as lhe fire was touched to it, for fear that the light shining upon thjir countenances, might make them known and the Faculty should expel (hern, and }et ilis asserted that Jackson was burned by the students "amid shouts of applause.” These are plain and stubborn facts which cannot be denied, unless it be by some such a vissionary as the ———. who comes up to Athens on a mission now and then to preach Nullification. I hope, then, that every one who has the inteiest of the in stitution at heart—who feels lor the prosperity of his state, who knows lhe successive attempts which I have been made to put dowh Georgia’s onlv and I beloved institution, will be active in contradicting any of these injurious reports. 1 can say that the few who were engaged in this ridiculous scene, io ucurred the displeasure of their fellow-students— ; that they were w arned of the consequences of such a course rd conduct---that the faculty, and espe , ciaily the President used all the means in their pow er to prevent any thing of the kind- —these facts I ■ have from good authority. If. then, there reniins la single spark of State-pride among our citizens, 'let it he shown in maintaining their institution, and i never notice the silly freaks rd’ hovs for "cltil'hen | will be children.” E PLURIBUS UNUM. : The papers of this state friendly to truth and to | the College will please inform the public of these facts.
