THE MUSEUM. I Ladies’ department. Foil THF. MUSEUM, “.?• a jewel of gold in a mine’s month, so is a fair woman without discretion.” —Bc!omr,n. That blessed hook from which we draw the ■ support of our Religion and the articles of our faith, as well as the grounds of all our moral do.- ’ ties, contains innumerable examples in domestic life, particularly, applicable to females of our day. 1 Among them the proverbs and remarks of Solo man are not the least worthy of attention Woman, stirrounded as she is, by the snares and entangle ment?; <? the vicious, cannot be too circumspect in her actions, nor too cautious in her conversation. The flirting belle who ridicules morality to make herself agreeable; and makes a jest of religion to show her wit, is expose;! to a thousand dangers which the more prudent escape. There are those Who are ever read’ to slander the fairest charac ter; and where an opportunity ‘l3 afforded by wantonness and discretion, it will never be ne glected to be used to the in jury of female repu tation. The least error that the unsuspecting fe male chances to commit, is aggravated by these enemies of happiness into henious crimes; and she will see, too late, the disastrous consequences of imprudent levity. It should be the first duty of parents and guar dians to train their daughters and wardsin the way of morality and virtue. They should consider them.selves not only as the protectors o F their infancy, but the formers of thev understanding, .and the framers of their future deslinev; and should accordingly give their tender minds the proper bent and direction. The tvue principles of virtue should he impla ted in their hearts; and he ties by which t *.ev are hound to society should be explained and me.'! Wed. The great importance of discretion cannot be too s'rong'v urged upon the attention of a voung female, If divsete 1 of this one virtue, though beautiful as an angel, what would be her prospects in life? handsome she might be, but no one could esteem her lovely What man would unite him self to a woman of this character? tier beauty would make her appear even m(i r e contemptible —’lwouhl be as expressed in the text, Ike a jew el of gold in a pig’s nose. Beauty is not, as ma ny who possess it vainly imagine, an equivalent for every olh tr qualification —*tis only lovely, ■d'heu viewed as the index of a virtuous heart— when th>check is tinged with the glow of in nocence and modesty; then, its loveliness is irre sistible. Rv discretion is meant a prudential cautiousness of one’s ic'ions; and by the comparison made use of in the text; we see in what light that wise man (who had every opportunity of becoming an excellent judge of womankind) held those who wove dispossessed of that invaluable trait, lie cons ileivd hum as-degraded to the level o r r™ Os Greece.

An immense num ber of the Turks, who endeavored to swim oil'to their fleet, were drowned, and the re mainder, with Hasson Pacha, their chief, and son of Mahomet, Ali Pacha, of Egypt, I were fortunate enough to save themselves in the fortress of Cannea.

We were visited last evening-, Friday the 27th. with a most violent tempest ol wind and min. The wind rose about 10 o’clock at N IC. ; at 12 shifted to N. and continued to gather strength; after a quar ter of an hour it rushed round to N. VY. where it seemed to find congenial ele ments, and increased to a tornado nr hur p/n winch augmented in fury until, half and drOjd into *grim repose.” Never have we witnessed so awful an exhibition of the elemairtal war— “ The spirit of an equinoctial gale” presided in the full swing of power, and die petty \vo*ks of man were piostrated and shattered o pieces by the breath ol Heaven. Trees, barns, stable*, io<>fs fen ces, all that stood in-fore this incsisti hle agent, were carried away, bone hou ses have had their roofs shattered and pre cipitated on tlieirs owneis’ heads. Others have been overthrown—ehintnie* top (ding—the doors and windows- of others carried away by the blast, and every thing us light ornament or delicate structure t<><n efi ami tliei loumlations shaken. The voice of the tempest was equally awful.- - It resembled the shrieks of a dse non ol the an-, while it* invisible CSc mighty hands wore scattering destruction. I’he cover to the cupola of the Circular church, in .Meeting street, (of sheet tins) was lifted and carried several hundred yards, and fill in Queen street, ft is a-! lioiji sixty lee! in circumference, and res-j embles the shield of the Titans. | The loss sustained by land and hv vva j,er we are not at present able to estimate. | ir cannot be less, however, than 8200,000. j But the destruction ot pronerty'is of nn j consideration, when we think-ol tiie loss of , fives.—Mr. Laval, whose residence was at ! Hampstead, has been severely wounded bvi j the ovearset'ino of Ids house, and his wife! jmd two child-eu killed! Two negroes of Mi. l.ivalV were also killed, and Mr. .1 <hn \\ ilson, butcher, who was on a vLit. | hut detained by the storm—was buried i:n- {der the ruins. Several dead bodies have ‘| been picked up in the river, lour of them j negroes of Capt. Saltus’and a white man. I The damage to the Shipping has b-Vn j very considerable. The ship Commodo.e j Perrv had her stern stove in, lost her mi y.e i-na|f, her channels f, re an ,j a f {> fu>i i s iilsWjrmvn from tiie yards, boat lost, and j other damage done. Tbs schooner ’ll.

Perfect broke adrift from 1 Kdmondston’s whmf,but by the exertions .of the mate Mr. Prince, was brought no and rode out tho gale.—The sldp Amelia was driven on sho-e high and drv at lon water, on James Island, with loss of be. mi/.en-mast and topmasts. The sbuonc Colonel Simons b-,. < e adrift, capsized and h ashore on the Breaker* off Suiit van’s U lami.

B, sclic Grampus would also hove j rode out the gale without damage, but for ; (he ship Hunter, which running foul of her, ] carried away4iergib*buom arid and lost two boats. The ship lluntei j broke adrift from Fitisimori’s wharf, and after going foul of a number of vessels j went on shore n.bove castle Pinckney. Bhe . has her Larboard cannels stove in, and her • sails shattered into ribbons from the yards. The ships Geres broke adrift from Chi colm’s south wharf, and is now ashore high iand dry at low water,above Castle Phck |r,ey. the schooner Grampus, brtoeging to Sa>tus & Bvthewood, at anchor in Ashley Kiver, broke from her mornings, capsized tend drifted on shore below Castle Pinckney. The brig Sea Gufi. at the Ship Yard, (with the mate Mr. Huge, of Boston, and one negio on board,) broke adrift end cap sized. The negro was taken oft'this mot n ing from the vvrerk, and ran give no ac count of the fate of Mr. Barge; he is sup posed drowned. The Sloop Hetty, Oary, of N London, arrived from New-York on F'iday evening, in Gdays; she was bound to New-')’ leans, and putin on account of the weather; came to anchor; but from the violence of the igale was obliged ‘n cut away her mast and I was driven 00 shore but has lmon got t ft’ without further injury. From Sullivan’s Island, our accounts I are of the most shocking nature. We r.n jderstand that upward of fifteen houses have been blown bown, and othei mn-e nr j!os injured. The residence of Mr. I.f.w is Monnis, jun was overset by the tem pest —hi* wife and two children, together with Mr. Middi.eton, wife of Mr. Thomas Middleton, in a Tempting ro rush from the falling ruins was drowned no the beach.— —Mr. Morris's house was coosjdeted one iof the safest on the Island.
