life of tbn citizen fur ol&nccs against Stalo j laws, and others of like character, make up no par! of State Sovereignty! NnlSifiers! here is Gov. Troup’s creed—its i Beotian profundi y is not to our taste—embrace it if you will, and gratify your keenest relish for absurdity. The zrserwer/ rig/t/s are State rights,—reserved rights are not sovereign rights, therefore Sliite rights are not sovereign rights— • hnd as the States h iv« no other rights than re served rights, it follows conclusively that the States have no sovereign tights at all. Upon this hvplbesis then, wiiat becomes of State sov ereignty? Alas! Alas! it has dissolved into “airy nothing,” i*i the potent crucible of Gov. Tnovp’s logic. Iti one particular, however, we hold Gov. Troup to be right. It is where he argues hy pothetically; that “il they, the reserved pow ers, were construed to mean savereign powers,! then indeed it would follow, that a Shite had | conceded ti portion of its sovereignty to the i government ofthe Unitt il States, and retained | onlyapoition for itself.” Now that the re-I ’ served righ s constitute (be very essence of! State sovereignty, is, we think, detnonstrablf, and we doubt much whether tiny sensible nulli fier is yet prepared to dispute it unless Gov., ThocP*9 logic Ltis worked with mote potanc.y than we imagine. And if the .Suites be sover eign by virtue of their reserved or municipal rights, afurlioii, must the United States be povereigti, by virtue of the gte.it international: rights of sovereignly, with which they are clothed in their aggregate capacity, ami which have enabled them to assume limit equal station Rinong the nations of the earth. P RECO CI i) US T A LENT. Coristiiin Heit y Hcineckeu, a child .greatly i celebrated lor the pre nitmc development of his talents, was born at Lubeck. Feb. 6, 1721. lie could talk at tea months old, and had scarcely completed bis fust year when he knew and recited the principal tarts in the five books of Moses, and, ;rt fotinceii inonihs, knew the history, both of the Old and New I'esi i men’. At two years and a half Im could an swer questions m geography, am! in his:o y, , ancient and modern; soon after, Im bad leurmul 'Latin and French. In his fomth year; Im had learned ilie doctrines of divinity with their proof from the Bible; modern history, <■'<-| p.stical history; institutes: 200 hyrnos, wiibilmh tunes; and 1300 verses and sentences from tiio ■inrient Latin classics. Uis stupendous memo ry retained every word repeated to him; an I. At the comt of Denmark, he delivered 12 speeches without once faltering and underwent public examination on a variety of subjects.— 110 spoke Gm tn in, L ilin, French, ami Law Dutch. Ho was exceedingly good natured ami well behaved Iml ofn most tender and delicate constitution. He never eat any solid food, but chiefly subsisted on his nurse’s rni’k, not being weaned until within a few months of his death, which took place al the age of fou< yeats find fot.tr months, on the 27(h June. 1727.

EARTHQUAKE. On Wednesday night last, about half past 10 o’clock, says the Columbia, I’a. Star of the 8:li inst. a shock of an earthquake was fell in ill's place. It was accompanied by a low rum bling noise, which many at the moment, thought Was occasioned by (be passing of a stage along the streef. Crockery and other articles on shelves wore noticed to shake very considera bly. Its duration could not have exceeded twelve seconds. We have heard it remarked b) a number who were out of doo’s at the time, (hat there was a great change in tbo at mosphere immediately before the shaking—it being so hot ami oppressive, as to render it dif firul’y to breathe. The shock was said to be the most violent one ever experienced in this part of die country. Lancaster and other places hs far as heard from, were similarly visit ed. It is said that a second shock was experienc ed at about 12 o’clock of the s one,nigh’, but as we have not much authority for this wo arc in clined to think that it existed only in the troub led dreams Ufocmc of (ho alarmed.— Georgia Times.

Many Journals, for a few week past, have been uevoled, in part, to tho subject of Lvcentns ex plaining their design and character, and great practical utility. I’heir union with academies, when properly managed, has done much toward rendering them peculiarly pleasing and efficient engines for the promotion of intelligence and learning. While they are originating and cultiva ting a desire lor mental improvement, they are af fording means, by which an individual may raise himsi li high in the scale of intellect. They can not fail of having the most salutary effect on the intelectual energies of all that are within the reach of their influence. Scholars, when once made ac quainted with the design and operation of this in stitmion, will; from its very nature, be all interest, all attention, lor they, like all the various class es ot community, are fond of variety in mental as well as pnysical pursuits, and when they arc re lieved from the almost disgusting monotony of Study and recitation. which by the way is too fre quently as purely mechanical as the talking of a parrot, or the barking of a wooden cuckoo, by the illustration of some lad connected with the sub ject of their studies, their wearied minds are arous ed and interested, and they are thus prepared to re sume their studies with vigor and delight. There is a simple inathematieal instrument much used in many schools ami academies, called a counter; il is composed of a small wooden frame, through " liich 12 wires pass, each wire containing 12 balls. Now w.iat child o| 5, orcven 4 years of age, pos sessing a common intellect, cannot be made to un derstand that 12 is 6 times 4, or 4 times 3, by di viding the 12 balls contained qd a wire into 3 parcels of leach? When the child sees this sim ple demonstration with the physical eye, he raises his smiling and intelligent countenance and savs, I tear icd that in-lure, but now I understand it.” 1 Ims by rendering each department of science in teresting to scholars, much is achieved. Another a (vantage derived from Lyceums connected with sciiO’ds, is this, it creates in the young mind a de sire lor knowledge. Now. from what source is k owledge to be obtained, in so great a degree, as l-oin books? Consequently a taste for reading t-j pi oil aced —■ -he has access to the library of the in stitution, and may|be constantly supplied with such books aft will improve both his moral and intelicct ua < i<.U.K < r, interest bis mind, and increase his thiisr tor reading. Lyceums and debating-ocietics are also bccom i.e a str.-j ■ci ot popular discussion among the in t!\..g'’ut ana thinking part ot the community »t n.it c.'.i: be pi<><!ucti \ e ot greater good, as it re g iris Hie <f.*vt lop ,i<<nr and extension of the in ic-lie. tna! l; l c(d i, f , M, >- ( m associations of moral and micl.i-g.-at beings, wb >s>n whole influence is given to thi-gta id and ntmle cause of mental improve- t.v< eums, founded on judicious principles, made to < o opt rate wu.i sm-kims that are designed for improvement in < xtemporaneous speaking, and in ernmexmn with a wdi s<ducted library, are destined to t.« m..te ■•fiicmi)' engines in the cause of ihtel || <■> I.u Ireeiio-.- , Hun any other institution now in op-ration. Lei-bap* some individual may think this is saving too much in favor of Lyceums. T ino:!',- mmy might be cited, from an in siiiii’t’ ii ..oi *ut’ rmg front Lyceums, agreeahiv to tm ir pr< ii-mt o gaaizilion, and see if facts wilfnot support the tbovo assertion. Benjamin Franklin, who r nr ought to be known to every school-boy in our co'otirv —the wonder and admiration of Eu rope 1.1" \mcriea, was made what he was by unit ing turns, h io a littery association, with which was connemed a good selection of books, and suitable aop.uatirs lor Phdosmhical, and otherexpetiments. I o « inr.id natmally vigoious, he added the most utijiiug perseverance in the pursuit of science, mid thus made himseifone of the most i flicicnt Si iiol ti >, Statesmen and Philosophers ot hit- age. Let it bo remembered that all woo cmoaik in tiie intellectual enterprise now agitating this region of country, must not en cage in it, in a half willing, half consenting wav, but with feelings that savour stronglv of enthusiasm; and with a decision and energy, at leas', commeitsmate with the enterprize'’iii which they are embarking. All thinking and r< fl.Timg men well know tint nn undertak ing, particularly of an intellectual character, can never be achieved without some effort —i Croat eflort. And is not the subject of mental enterprise now before the public, of sufficient importance to claim the attention of every phiLmtli! ophist? I s it not of sufficient importance to urge every man to action? No institution ran long exist without enercet iemoasmes are taken to sustain them, bv their founders. The moment that feelings of an apathetic character arc m inifesied towards an institution of any kind, it will totter to its fall. Hence the propriety of a constant and careful watching over all the instituiions that do, or may hereafter exist in onr countiy.-- Some person may ask what good they’ ef fp.ct—what good do they elfeci? \\ hen they are properly managed, they rouse the mind from an almost de illi like slumber, and chase away the darkness lhat has enveloped that mind, perhaps from its youth. And what is the con sequence td breaking up this maire than niid nilliit d irkness? Light rushes in and preparr s the mind lor action, and leads it to enquire, PLet os enquire”—-with what are those little words Oot fraugbl? To what hive they not led? To wiiat are they not destined to lead? xNaliens have fallen beforo them, Hierarchies have given way; iron bars, and iron laws, and more than iron piejudices have given way, and civil discord, sheathing her sword, has been permitted to sit down in peace at the feet of liberty. A. B. C. VERY CUTTING. Barbers have long been celebrated for their wit and the exquisite keenness of their jokes. But tho oddest of all mortals of the barber ous tribo of which we have tho least idea ap pears in ilie last Ithaca papers, with an adver tisement, dated at the “Head Quarters of the Republican Hall of Fashion.” After going on for some time with (In/ cuts he winds up with the fullowing postscript; “The subscriber has invented an entire new plan for shaving; it goes by steam. The knife is about the size of a broad a.xe, with tongs to steady the patient. The whole concern is to be heated rod hot and it removes the beard quicker than thunder and lightning, and without pain. It cuts hair in the completes! manner, and saves the expense and trouble of a second operation by taking olf the head at tho same time,’’ POET'S PjLACE- AN APPEAL Shades the perish’d—shall it be,— Khali we. whose fathers have been free Whose blood-writ lessons, scann’d at length Hava warm’d our faith and fix’d our strength, ' And with these brought us Liberty Now bow the neck—now bend tiie nee? Then did they bare the sword in Vian, Fruitless the peril and the pain, And we must do their deeds again— Again invoke the God they knew, And die, or do as they would do! Once more—or we’re of little worth.— The blood-cry must again go forth, In sounds to awaken up the earth! ’ And, where the true heart slumbers, knock, Until his soil shall feel the shock. And every pulse within his breast. Shall beat with wrongs to be redress’d. The mountains allshall live—the strife, Shall call each slumberer into life- And it may be-Ileaven speed the pray’r,- The Lowland and the Swamp shall hear.’ And kindled by old lessons then. Leap forth, and join the strife like men. And it it be that lawless Will tempt the free, nor dread the fight, Then must each heart prepare—each band, Be ready with th’ unsparing brand, To smite the oppressor down, and stand, The prompt avengers of the right, High Priests at freedom’s bo best sane, To seek her cell—to break her chain. And with (be blood of Tyrants slain, To sanctity her shrines again. For. all too long tlie Oppressor’s rod, Defiling earth, defying Heaven, Hath spread with blighting pow’r abroad, Dishonoring man, defying God, The time has come, and be it riven. T oo long his iron feet have trod. O'er shrines built up by-lioliest hands, And blessed by al! that awes, commands, Orwins, or warms the soul, not lost, To al! they yield, to ah they cost. But vain the hope long deemed secure And false the freedom held so sure Unless, without a doubt orfear, VVe seek the field, where fought our sires, Build up the long neglected tires, And keep our watch with freedom there. Oh, have our souls no latent gleam. Our thoughts no lite, our hearts no stream, That now in kindling fervor runs Our tathers-are we not your sons! Our blood was yoms—that blood we’ll spill, Or consecrate to freedom still;— J hen it our toe would have us swear— Then thunder, peal’d within his car, Shall never sound more stornly drear, Than when our oath, sent up on.high, Shall claim its cachoes from the sky. Swear!—by each future hope, nor last, Swear—by each memory of the past. Our fathers’ fames, our children’s rights, Our country s peace, the whole world's lights— By the long catalogue of dead, The martyrs, who, tor man have bled, — By the proud solace of the brave, Who perish in tlie strife to save, By all that God to man hath given, In joys of Earth, and hopes of Heaven- Whatever battle field or plain, In freedom’s fight hath feit the stain, Oi blood,-to crimson it again - ’ Contend each spot ofvilest soil, 1 i 11, in the future time ,w lien mon, Are called to break their chains again, It grows all worthy of the toil. Such be the only oath we take, Then let them come to pledge tho fee, And lor the past, tor freedom’« sake. We 11 swear them too, to Liberty! EPIGRAM. Ona man of the name of Treble Being apprehended tor picking pockets. 'J reble with Loudon pick-pockets they r say, Has long time held the tenor ot his way; It this be true, and can be proved the case, i ben the said Treble has been through Bas!. The Nashville Telescope announces the marriage of Mr. Swell N. Pickle aged 18 years, to Mrs. Clara Potk aged 76 years, and ap pends thereto the following: “By Pickling Pork most people try.

She sought love’s god bo fickle: And by his council took his leap, Winch lost her Perk in Pickle!" A BULL CH ASE. Yesterday afti-iuoun between 5Jt 6 o’clock, the saber inhabitants «>f Chestnut street weie startled with a general ou'cry of “clear die I road”—“there he comes” —and on looking, sure enough he did come. A bull or an ox, a bout three years old, had taken upon himself the responsibility of promenading Chestnut street without an attendant, and hi? made clear work of it as far as In? wen'.. Neat Fifth street the cloak of a gentleman, blowingout into the wind, attracted tho attention of the animal, and he flew nt it wnha singular grace. The ow ner sliped the fastenings, and left the garment. After a single loss of the affair, the bull pursu ed his way downward, but was soon attiacted by the awful appearance of a black man break ing out. Then he rushed in upon the heap making a glorious chattering with his hoof.- > rhe regular coal breaker, however, not relish ing a partnership in his business, dropped his | hammer and withdrew from the concern. By this time, the shoutings of the citizens bad in . I fused a new fire into the veins of the bull, and he tonk up his line of march at a rapid gate. — . Hurrah, shouted the boys—“there ho comes,’’ ' said a woman—and on went the bull, bellowing ’ likea “roaring lion,” peeling it down the streets i like a streak of lightening, his tail cocked right ; into the air like a ling, and his head flying about ■like a politician’s, looking for the strongest side. ; Arrived at the brow of the hill at Front street, his coming was discovered by the numerous , persons on board the steamboat at Chestnut street wharf. What’s, that?” shouted orfe. I “It’s the veto,” replied another*. “Stop him!” they all shouted; and they farm ed a bold front, the keep such an invasion from the deck of the steamboat. Meantime the animal tfartio down the hill with a marvellous velocity—••wheelbarrows and handbarrows were scattered like dust from his path-nothing obstructed his courso-.away he went at full speed, over ropes and hawsers, stretched along to fasten the steamboat-high a- j bove every let and hindrance, he cleared the i I whole at a single leap, and struck the Dela-1 U’Ci'O, sixteen feet from the wharf. Landsmen and waterman, fiisliermen and butchers, then betook themselves to tho boats to catch the handsome beast, —Jovo himself never took a more beaulTttl form, —but all exertions were fruitless. On be went, master alike of his own pathway, in the water as on the land. He di rected his course for Smith’s island, and landed safe, where at the least-.report ho was setting up his rest—“ Lord of the fowl and the brute.” U. S. Gazette. TIIE MIRROR AND TIIE WINDOW-PANE. A mirror and a widow-pane were once des perately enamoured of a beaut iful young girl, who had been brought up without ever seeing herself either in the glassy surface of the stream, or the polished looking glass. They agreed to refer their claims to their decision. The inno cent damsel first looked through the pane of glass on one of the most lovely prospects in na ture. Rich meadows with spotted sheep and cattle; copses of wood, whose fleecy foliages, as it waved to and fro in the sweet south breeze, presented endless varieties of sprightly greet.; little brooks stealing their way in a thousand devious meanderings through (be grass and flowers; bills rising gently one above the other in graceful lijies of neauty, until they ended in a cioudcapt mountain whose sett azure tints blended harmoniously with the skies, ail min gled together in nature’s matchless harmony, presented a scene of enchanting bean y. She g.zed so long at this landscape, that the mirror began to imagine it was all over with it and tinned dim with envy. At last the damsel placed herself before it: and became riveted to the spot, enamoured of the angel she saw re flected there. She beheld in its pure bosom a figure graceful as the sportive kitten; eyes that sparkled like jewels; lips like twin cherrte®: cheeks showing the opening roses; teeth of pearl, and neck and bosom ofsnow. Sim stood motionless with admiration, and wlmn calien upon for a decs.on between the rival glasses, blushed and was silent. But from that day it was observed, ihut tbo window 'pane was desert ed for the mirror, and the former at length broke its heart in desj) tir. WIT IN AN INFANT. An ex munition took place some time since in an academy in this city, in the com se of which it happened that the last class in geography was ot the floor about o/m o\ lock. “We have got almost to Hungry,” said one of the stu dents. “Almost,” replied and infant spectator pert.y, by the ume you get to Hungary, I sup pose you’ll want y<mi Dinner." This created a laugh among die students and auditois.— lon may i tugh,” continued the wit, “but 1 feel as ij I was there already," Georgia Times. RE W A R D O F M E RIT. Tiicre was once a poor man, a shoommi°r, named Gideon Lee, who went from house to house with his kit on his back, to nnke and mend shoes for Ins more wealthy neighbors, to obtain a livlihood. IL? is now immensely rich, and at tins time holds the high an.) boiioralde office ot Mayor in the city of New Yoik, the largest city m the United States. The newspapers tell a story of an old wo mail who gazed at the metoric shower believ ing tha day of judgment was at hand. She mg ed her husband to lose no time in collecting his d-b s. Ihe Belfast Journal relaies a cunver sation in a store upon the same subject. One young man put a question; Suppose the world was to be destroyed on or before the last day oi June, what should we busy ourselves about til! mat time? This was a tough question, which no one seemed readily to answer. Turning to an idle, lounging lumper, he asked, “Who would you do Bdl !” “PH le l| vou ;» su , sB u . “1 d get trusied whenever I could, and agree to pay them in July.” A prisoner being brought up to Bow street the following dialogue passed between him an.l the sitting magistrate: “How do you live?” I retty well sir, generally a joint and a pud ding at dinner.” “I mean sir, how do you gm your bread?” “I beg your worship’s pmdiin; sometimes at the bakei’s, and sometimes at the coandler s siiop.” “You may be as witty as you please, sir, bat I moan simply 10 ask vou, low do you do!” “Tolerably well, 1 thank your worship; I hope your worship is well.” A SYNONYM.
