Chandler, Esq., Editor ofthc Phila delphia United States Gazette, lately delivered nti address before some of the Literary Socities of his State, which is highly spoken of, and, uo doubt, deservedly. The subject of the dhcourse was the grand leading principle on w.ich depends the striking difference between the intellectual -character of the ancients and moderns. We in* pert the following extract from ti.e address relative to tho “Father of his enuntw “l placo not the name of Washington in com* parison with those of warriors and orators of any age. I will do no such injustice to their fame! IIo, the father of the nation, held prc*em* inenen for greatness nud goodness combined, which the illustrious of any age may glory in ac* knowledging, without u thought of envy or a movement of emulation. Greatness, and even superiority, are claimed for, and conceded to dis* tingiiished men of every age, when compared with others, but from that comparison the name of Washington is excluded. Alone in his virtues, and above his race in their exercise, the pre*emiu* ence which a grateful connin' asks for its father is acknowledged hy an admiriiig world, and noth* * * g ; b- nWi become , laddow to their rest; hut new (liras nro siuilii u; on us, and new hopes beckonin'; ns on.,Am h lion anti fame urc he Hire its. butvouth and after- tint! behind us, The scene is more glorious and brilliant, but tho beauty and Otshesa of the mom* ins have faded, ai.l forever. But still onr steps fail not, our spirits fail not. Onward and onward we go; the horizon of happiness uud fame recedos as we advance to*it; the shadows begin to lengthen and tho chilly airs or evening are usurping the fervor of the noon-tiny. Still we press onward: the goal is not yet won, the heaven not yet roach* ed. Tiio bright orb of Hope that had cheered us on is sinking m the West; our limbs begin to grow faint, onr hoarts to grow sad t we turji to gaze upon the scenes that we havo passed, but the shadows of twilight have interposed thoir veil be* tween ns: we look around for the familiar faces, the companions of onr travel, but we gaze in vain to find them: wo have outstripped them all in our race after pleasure, and the phantom yet nn* caught, in a land ofstrangers, in a sterile and in hospitable country, the night time of death, and weary and heavy laden, we lie down to rest in the bed of the gravel Happy thrice is he, who hath laid up treasures in himself, for the distant and uiiknnw to-morrow.—Chariton, SAVANNA II: FRIDAY EVENING, NOV. 22, 1838. 07 Major W.

It was not the love of soil—nor even, alone, the Io\o of those who oc cupied that soil, that moved him. His compre hensive mind, while it understood and resented the wrongs ofhis country, included in the remedy the rights of man. And when he struck for inde pendence, he felt that though one people only was includod in the proclaimed effort, mankind at largo were to profit by the blow. “ We appeal to no single field for the fame of Washington. No one victory, no brilliant sor* I respect, _ r dence. A single battle, even under hit command, might have been lost; hut the great coutest ever tended onward to victory. No individual field startles us with the adventurous daring of Wash ington, while the whole Revolutionary struggle was made successful by his cautious valor. “Well may oar realms his Fabian wisdom boast— “His prudence saved what braver}' had lost. “ The eloquence of Washington was effective from its evident sincerity; his heart went with every word; and, as a speaker, the cahnneiu of hiss^rle, tho purity of his diction, aud the evident integrity of bis intention, if they did not entitle him to the highest praise of eloquence, wrought for tho cause that was advocated, all the effects that eloquence could produce. Washington exhibited many of the highest qualifications of a military command er; and there, too, he displayed some of the ef fective powers of eloquence, when he retired from tho tumult of the camp, and unheard, except by God and one accidental listener, he invoked a blessing upon his fellow sufferers, and dared to solicit Divine aid UDOU the r»iw, .mm* S. ri r, S" t ' Humol y *?“• w» elo quence which must move man by its fervency, and please God by its confidence and truth.” ^ THE YOUNG GREEK GIRL.
