Journal, much pleasure in having it in our power to p resent our rea ders with the follwing beautiful posthumous poem by the unfortunate Maturin author of “ Bertram,” “Mel- moth," and other works of great genius. It has nev er before been in print; and, through tho kindness of an eminent literary friend in London, the origin al, in tho poet’s own writing, is now in our posses, sion. ‘ Gentle, constant, mild, and brave, With graceful form an! v rnal cheek, Bold as man in peril's hour, Soft as woman, in Bufferings meek. The wrathful clouds of stormy life ' Have o’er thco oft their shadows thrown ; But thou wast a bright and peaceful star, Sparkling through all, and sailing on. -» Thou art a beautiful vision, seen Half through mist, and half by the moon ; But the mist is gathering close and dark, c And the lovely light is fading soon. Thou art a flower, on whose soft cup Tho shower of griof beats rude and chill; But, through the dimness of its dew, Tho tinis of heaven arc glowing still. There is a smile in thy dark blue eye, Whose light seems borrow’d from a tear, And in its orb both joy and grief Are ever mingling or ever near. And joy so meek is akin to grief; And grief so chasten’d half is blits; And tho cloudless light of a sun-like eye Ne’er boasted a blended charm like this. There’s music in thy very sighs, That chides the grief it half beguiles ; And the twilight shado of thy pensive brow, Is sweeter to me than a moon of smiles. Thy fine.toned heart, like the harp of the winds, Answers in sweetness each breeze that sings; And tho storm of grief, and the breath of joy, Draw nothing but music from its strings. The bird that skimm’d the shoreless deep, Saw but one ark where its rest might be ; And the heart that has roved thro’ i desert world, Has never met aught in the world like thee. My spirit may soar to brighter worlds* And rest in the wles of some happy sea; But will it in tho brightest of worlds meet Another spirit as pure as thee ? From the Journal of Humanity. DR. MUSSEY’S ADDRESS. On the evening of Wednesday the 2d inst. Professor Musscy of Dartmouth College de livered a public Lecture iu the Chapel of the Theological Seminary on “ Health as af fected by Djiess.” His object was to show the hurtful effects of the mode of dress so general among the fair of our country. To effect this, he began by giving a description of the various parts of the body particularly concerned in the miseries induced by the practice which he reprobated. It is vain for us to hope that we can communicate on paper the impressions which his audience received from the visible illustrations produced by the Lecturer, but we shall attempt to present an outline of his remarks, hoping that some of the victims of this barbarous practice may be inclined thereby to abandon their folly and their sin. Holding up a human spine or back-bone, he spoke of it as showing the ingenu .ty of the Author of our being. It is formed by twen ty-four short bones, connected by a strong, clasticsubstance anl uniting with the greatest freedom of motion, remarkable strength; with the most surprising flexibility, perfect steadi- ness; so that it may be moved to a consider able extent in all directions. The spine is a pillar which supports the whole weight of the trunk, head and arms, and does not suffer un der the longest fatigue, or the greatest weight which the limbs can bear. Jusffon the top of this elastic pillar is placed the brain, a most delicate organ, homogeneous in its texture, be iitg formed of threads most curiously wrough t and very liable to injury from sudden blows or shocks. From the brain in a canal through the spine, descends the spinal chord or mar- row. This is of tho same substance ' as the brain, being a continuation of it. From this spinal marrow proceed the nervcs 1 which are given off all along the spine; two at each of the joints. These nerves confer sensibility on all the parts which have sensation. They are the medium of communication between the mind and muscles. One remarkable prop, erty which belongs to them is their capacity to shorten themselves while they do not in crease in volume. They are acted on by electricity, galvanism, mechanical irritation, and chiefly, by volition.' The action of the nerves on the muscles was here illustrated by a diagram. Upon the spino arc placed the bones of the chest, viz; the ribs and breast bones. The ribs have only one mo tion, the upward and downward. They are bent in two directions, so that when all are raised up, tho chest is enlarged. This en- largemeut of the chest is facilitated by the elastic substance which connects the ribs with ieach other, and each rib with the bones of the spine. A very slight degree of pressure entirely prevents the motion of the ribs a pressure even so slight as that caused by a belt* held around them between the thumb and fore finger only. Now the object of this ac. tion of the bones of the chest is to promote the proper action of the organs within. Here we find the heart and lungs, where the circu lation of the blood commences, and where its purification is effected. This latter process is performed by the passage of the blood through the lungs. Any thing which hinders the free circulation of the blood a moment, tends to occasion disease, and the entire sus pension of the circulation for five minutes causes death. Hence it is of the highest im portance {hat this process be not retarded. The kind Author of our bodies has protected the great organs concerned in the circulation and purification of the blood by a double guard, viz; the bony cage which encloses them, and the diaphragm, which is a large muscle separating the chest from the abdo-1 men. . This plays up and down when th'e ribs are motionless. But on many occasions we want the motions of the ribs and diaphragm both, as when we make violent efforts in run ning, &c. If the ribs are confined by a belt at such a time, wc cannot fill the lungs with air, and the small quantity admitted to thorn will be insufficient to cleanse the blood, and hence diseases must arise. Every means whatever which fend to abridge the quantity of an* taken into the lungs, must sooner or later injure the health. Individuals of slen der chests, or in other words, who have small lungs, are not so healthy as those who have full chests. 'Take a girl at eight years of age and. confine her chest by a band so that her ribs cannot move, (and you can do this by slightly holding a belt around her waist be tween the thumb and finger) and you will find when she arrives at a maturer age she will have a small chest, and small lungs. She is easily put out of breath; she has a flushed face, dizziness, and coldness of the feet. In a crowded assembly she faints, because she cannot expand the chest freely. When the chest is extremely corsetted, the upper part may move by means of a joint iu that part, but then one can inhale scarcely half a giil of air. Enough has been said to show that there must be a proper proportion between the lungs and other parts of the body. If this be destroyed by dress or any other means, a per son may expect enlargement of the heart, tu bercles in the lungs, pulmonary consumption, &c. &c. Below the diaphragm lies the stomach, liver, alimentary canal, and other important organs, varying in size before and after meals. But the corset prevents this en largement after the reception of 'food, and produces dyspepsia, and similar disorders.— If God designed to have a bone extending from the breast-bone down over the stomach, would lie not have made one for this purpose? Some cannot understand how diseases should be coming on for years and not be observed. But the poison of a mad dog sometimes for years is .slowly tainting the blood, till at length it bursts forth in a horrible disease and brings on a speedy death. Similar to this is the in fluence of tobacco, and of ardent spirit. If the corset extends downward to the lower part of the body, it is worse than the belt, as it prevents not only the motion of the ribs, but also that of the diaphragm. The physician is called to visit a young lady afflicted with pain in her side, dizziness, cold feet, &c. He tells her to lay aside her corset. She re plies, she cannot—she feels as if she should drop to pieces” without it! This shows what her corset has done for her. It has weakened her muscles and made her depend ant on that tor support. It is asked, “ what constitutes tight’ dressing?” Answer,—any thing which impedes in any degree the mo- subject, acco/npanied by lithographs of the various parts of the body which he exhibited, would be of inestimable value.

The s)>ine and all moveable parts of the body depends on the muscles. Every thing which weakens the muscles weakens the spine, and makes it crooked. When the spine is bent by tight lacing the shoulder blade “grows out” as the ladies say. The Doctor is called on for a plaster to cover this. If he is ignorant of the cau§e of the deformity he gives one; but as this fails to effect a cure, the young lady consults her habit-maker, and she by stuffing and padding, pushes up the falling shoulder, and by bandages and straps pulls down the elevated one! These deform, ed spines are found only among young ladies— boys never have them. To what is this dif ference owing ? To the effects of corsetting on ladies.* , . The effects of tight dressing on the com plexion are bad. As the blood is not purified when corsets are worn, the complexion can not be pure and bright. As a matter of taste, corsetting is to be condemned. Those statues which have been regarded os models of beautiful proportion, do not exhibit to us the waspish waists of mod ern belles. These then are a deformity; as really so as the diminutive feet of the Chinese ladies. These are only throe or four inches in length, the toes, excepting the great toe, being bent under the foot, and the heel being brought downward and forward by the appli cation of bandages in infancy. What a bar barous practice, says some fair lady. But this only makes them cripples, while our cus- tom poisons the fountain of life, and brings on disease and death. In Christian countries greater numbers have died by the corset than have perished in India in the waters of the Ganges, and on the funeral pile, and before the car of Juggernaut! Only one word can be said in favor of this practice; that word is, Fashion. Reason and common sense arc against it; anatomy and physiology are against it; humanity and religion are against it; the goddess Fashion alone approves it. Mothers weep when they read how the Jewish mother could throw her babe on the iron spikes in the flames before the hideous image of Moloch, but these same mothers are sacrificing their beloved daugh tors to an idol no less cruel! But we will not attempt to give the con clusion of the Doctor’s remarks. In language of deep and thrilling eloquence, he adminis- tered a solemn rebuke to all who can trifle with life and with the soul by indulging or en couraging this practice. Every individual in his .numerous auditory was fully convinced of the folly and criminality of the custom. Any lady who heard him who will hereafter obey the mandates of fashion in this respect, will, in our humble opinion, not onty expose health and life; but also endanger her repu tation for common sense, and will pledge her. self to vanity, and pride, and wretchedness, as their obsequious friend and servant. Believing that thousands in pur land would be rescued from destruction by seasonable information of the kind contained in Professor Mussey’s Lecture, we cannot but hope that at no distant period he will give his views to the world in some form adapted to universal cir. culation.

May 4—7—30c!. i N PRESENTING to the public a periodical, en- tircly new in its character, it will be expected that the publisher should describe his plan, and the objects he hopes to accomplish. Tnere is growing up in the United States a nume rous population, with literary taste, who are scatter, ed over a large space, and who, distant from the lo. cxlitics whence books and literary information ema- tte, feel themselves at a great loss for that mental food which education has -fitted them to enjoy: Books ire cheap in our principal cities, but in the interior they cannot be procured as soon as publish, ed, nor without considerable expense. To supply this desideratum is tho dosign of tho present under, taking, the chief object of which emphatically is to iiiako reading chc.-per, and to put it in a form that will bring it to every man’s door. Books cannot *e sent by mail, while tho “ Select Circulating Library" may be received at the most distant post office in the Union in fio . fifteen to twenty-five d iys after it is published, at tho trifling expense of two and a half cents ; or in other words, before a hook could tie bound in Philadelphia, our subscribers in Ohio or Vermont may be perusing it in their parlours. • To elucidate the advantages of the “ Select Circu lating Library,” such as we propose, it is only ne cessary to compare it with % the other publications. Take the Wuvcrly novels for example ; the Chroni. cle of the Canon gale occupy two volumes, which are sold at $1 25 to $1 50. 'file whole would be readi ly contained in three numbers of this periodical, at an expense of thirty-seven cents, postage included! So that more than three times the quantity of litera ry matter can be supplied for the same money by adopting the nowspiper form. But wo consider transmission by mail, and the early receipt of new books, as a most distinguished feature of the publica tion. Distant subscribers will be placed on a footing with those nearer at hand, and will be supplied for the r own hanie$ with equal to about fifty volumes of t!ie common London novel size at Five Dollars Tliis may not take fifty-two weeks to accomplish ; for, tiiough not longer than one will elapse between the issuing of eicfi iiu.nuer, yet, whon there is a press of very interesting matter, or when two or more numbers are required to contain a whole work, tho proprietor will feel himself at liberty to publish at shorter intervals—fifty-two numbers being the equivalent for five dollars. Arrangements have been made to receive from London, an early copy of every new book printed either in that mart of talent, or in Edinburgh, to- gether with the periodical literature of Great Britain. From the former we shall select the best Novele, Me moirs, Tales, Travels, Sketches, Biography, $c. and publish them with as much rapidity and accuracy as on extensive printing office will admit. From the latter, such liter.ay intelligence will occasionally be culled as will prove interesting md entertaining to the,lover of knowledge, and science, literature and novelty. Good standard novels and other works now out of print, may also occasionally bore-pro duced in our columns. Tho publisher confidently assures the head of’ fa milies, that tiiey need have no dread of introducing the “ select Circulating Library” into their domes tic circle, as the gentleman who has undertaken the Editorial duties, to literary tastes and habits adds due sense of the responsibility he assumes in catering for an extended aud moral community, and of the consequences, detrimental or otherwise, that will fol low the dissemination of obnoxious or wholesome mental aliment. His situation and engagements af. ford him peculiar advantages and facilities for . the selection of nooks. These, with the additional channels erected by agencies at London, Liverpool, and Edinburgh, warrant the proprietor iu guarantee ing a faithful execution of the literary department. It would be supererogatory to dilate on the gene ral advantages and conveniencies which such‘ a pub; lic&tion presents to people of literary pursuits wher ever located, nut more particularly to those who re side in retired situations they are so obvious, that the first glance cannot fail to flash conviction of its eli gibility. ; . TERMS. “The Select Circulating library” will be printed weekly on a double medium sheet of fine paper in octavo form, ' with three columns on a page, and mailed with great care, so as to carry safely to the distant post office. It will be printed and finished with the same care and accuracy as book-work. Tho whole fifty-two numbers, will form a volume, well worth preserva tion, of 832 pages, equal in quality to 1200 pages, or three volumes Rees’ Cyclopedia. Each volume will be accompanied with u Title page and Index. The price is Five Dollars for fifty-two numbers qf sixteen pages each—a price at which it cannot bo af- forded unless extensively patronized. O' Payment at all times in advance. » Agents who procure five subscribers, shall have a receipt in full by remitting the publisher $20, and a proportionate compensation for a larger number. This arrangement is made to increase the circulation to an extent which will make it. an object to p .y agents liberally. Clubs of five individuals may thus procure the work for $4, by uniting their remittan ces. Subscribers living near agents, may pay their sub scriptions to them; thoso otherwise situated, may remit the amount to the subscriber at his expense. Our arrangements are all made for the fulfilment of our part of the contract. Subscribers’ names should be immediately forward ed, in order that the publisher may know how many to print of the future number^ O’ Editors of NewspapereVho give the above three or more conspicuous insertions, will.be entitled to an exchange of fifty-two Numbers. _ ADAM WALDIE, Carpenter-street, near Seventh, under the Appren tices’ Library, back of fEe Arcade, where Sub. scriptions will be gratefully received.

O N the first day of thia month there took place a tremendous storm .at Tjiomaston, which is found to have extended wide and far, apd to have done much damage-lowing to which the itinerant agents employed to sell tickets, could not arrive in time, and'tho drawing of the. Union Hotel Prop erty Lottery could not take place on the 2d. inst.— As there is considerable Stock yet to dispose of/ the Proprietor thinks it best to have the drawing when the Stock is sold, or most certainly the first day of January next ; this will give him time to sell tho balance of the tickets. Messrs. Soltmarsh & Overton start a fine Post Coach Union Line, to leave Macon and Columbus, on the first Monday in April next, and meet at the Union Hotel in Thomaston, three times a week.— This splendid Line* most ruse the stocks and bo a great inducement for purchasers who ever indulge in’ Lot teries. .
