WESLEY CAMP, Adm. j Fet !• 1-r Sv^Ct THE CASKET, OR FLOWERS OF LITERATURE, WIT AND SENTIMENT. l-OR 1627. Office of the Saturday Kv. post. Philadelphia, Dec. 2. 1826. THE CASKET, or Flotcers of Literature, }Vit and Sentiment, which has had an unpre cedented increase of patrons during the lust six months, will after the present volume is finished, contain, each number, 40 octavo pages, printed licit, on smull handsome type, upon the finest paper, stitched and covered, and furnished at the low price of Two Dollars and fifty cents per annum. The Casket is a collec.ion from the choicest pieces of the Sat urday Evening Post, made with a refference to the. ditference which should exist in the materials of a weekly paper, and those of a monthly publication, the former of course en riched with essays, poetry, anecdotes, and those set oil" by a recital of the occurrences of Ihe week The latter can receive little value from a mere detail of events, many of which would cease to be interesting before they were rci • ded. Tlie vast quantity of matter crowded, by smal! type and careful arrangement, into the columns of every number of tlie Saturday Evening Post, will in the course of a month, furnish the most ample materials from which to form au interesting |>eriodicat work such as the Casket has- been considered by its partial friends, and such as we intend it shall be. Notwithstanding the fact, that tlie Cas ket is but a colisetion from the columns of the Saturday Evening i’ n st, we confidently predict, and indeed we are sanctioned in the experience we already have, that its most numerous patrons will be found among the subscribers to our weekly paper. —A large number of those who take the “Post” de pend upon that paper for the news of the week —it is therefore read with avidity by almost every member of tiic family where it is received, and this general use frequently injures i;s appearance so much as almost to render it unfit tor the file, or fur binding. The numbers too, by this general use, are not unfrequcntly lost, mutilated, or entirely des troyed, and the file thus broken.—The Casket is calculated to prevent this inconvenience, and to furnish, at a very cheap price, all the useful matter, for which the weekly paper would be desirable when bound.—ln thus giving a permanent form and select associa tion to tlie choice pieces.of our weekly con tributors, it is confidently anticipated that new and successful in J.«ements will be held out for the exercise of superior talent, and unusual care in our literary department.—ln addition to tlie recommendation of neatness in the general appearance —and particular attention to the typographical execution, it is our intention to embellish each number of the “Casket” with three Handsome Engravings from the hands of some of the most distin guished artists of tiie country. With these claims to patronage, the “Cas ket” will, as has been previously mentioned, be afforded to those who subscribe for that paper exclusively, at the low price of $2,50 per year, a subscription which it is confident ly believed, is much lower than that for any other publication of a similar character iu this country —but to the subscribers of tlie “Saturday Evening Post” tiie “Casket” will be furnished for $2,00. Tlie January No. foi 1827, will be em bellished with a portrait of the late venerable JOHN ADAMS, formerly President of the United .States, one of Longacre's best engrav ings ; also a correct and beautiful view of FAIR MOUNT WATER WORKS, in the vicinity of Philadelphia; In sides the first No. of the SCHOOL OF FLORA, being the commencement ofa regular series of Treaties on Botany, illustrated with numerous cuts. Post-Masters and publishers of papers who will interest tliemselves in obtaining subscri bers, and be responsible for the subscription, shall be entitled to every sixth copy gratis.

[OR $4 IF NOT PAiDIN SIX MONTHS,. [ Concludedfrom, our /cwfj At the commencement of hostili* ties, in 1775. Bishop being too old for active service, was left at home in charge of the manufacturing es*- tablishments of the household, where the veteran would llourish his cane, exacting as perfect obedience as tlio’t he had been on parade. A com- Inrlablc house had been built for him; he had married; and, looking no more toward his native land, ho was contented to pass the remainder of his days on the domain of his pat ron, where ho rested from labor, ib the enjoyment of every possible easo and indulgence—the reward of his long and faithful services. In his comfortable homestead, and library with age he would delight the young with tales of fearful interest of the Indian wars—while, his own wars ended, and at peace with tho world he feebly trimmed the lamp of life, which, having burned for more than eighty years, could hut for a little while longer he kept Rom sinking iU its sock'-t. Notwithstanding his perfect rev erence for his patron, this old soldier would sometimes presuming on tho privilege of age aud long services, chafe his protector on points of ex pediency, though never on those cif obedience. The General would as sume a lofty tone, saying, it is very well, sir; if you are at length tired of my service, you are at perfect liber ty to depart. The ancient follower of Braddock, however, knew bis man, and knew exactly what host to do; he wisely became silent, and tho storm w hich appeared to he brood ing quickly passed away, w'hen a*tc» turning sunshine cheered with tho warmth of its kindness the veteran of 56. The Washington family were sub ject to here dilary gout —the Chid* never experienced a pang. His tem perance. aud the energetic employ ment of both his body and mind, seemed to forbid the approach of u disease, which severely afflicted sev eral of his nearest kindred. His ill nesses were of rare occurrence, but were particularly severe; bis aver sion to the uses of medicine was ex treme: for, even when ia great suf luring it was only by, the entreaties of his lady, and the respectful, yei beseeching look, of his oldest friend and companion in arms, (Dr. Jamtn Craik ,) that he could be prevailed upon to take (lie slightest prepara tion of medicine, lie certainly nev -0 had children. We recollect a lady who called herself his daughter. Site was a lino looking woman, but without any particular iikoness to the Chief, nor can.vve consider that as a pardonable vanity in a child, which implicates the honor of a pa rent. The remarkablo degree ofadmira* tion awe that was felt by every one, upon the tirst approach to Washing, ton, evidences the imposing power and sublimity which belongs to real greatness. Even the frequenters of the Courts of Prin;es were sensible of this exalted feeling, when in pre* scncc of the hero, who, formed far the highest destines, bore an impress from nature, which declared him to be one amoug the noblest of her works. Those who have only seen the Leader of Armies and tho Chief Ma gistrate of tho Republic can have but an imperfect idea of the same b%« mg, when merged into the retired citizen, embosomed amid his family and friends, cultivating the social and domestic virtues, and diffusing pleasure and happiness to all around him. Persons in gen *ral have been itt error, in supposing that there bo iongeci io this awful man nothing of the gentler sort —"no tear for pity." The blaster Spirit in the direction of those vast events which gave anew empire to the world, the austerity of command could never destroy those kindlier feelings in which he delight ed himself to indulge, and to dis pense them to others. Stern he wars to all whom he deemed wanting in those high moral requisites, which dignify and adorn our natures—stem he was to the disturbers of the re pose of Society, the violators ofthose institutes which promote peace and good will among men; hot he va> forbearing to the imperfections of human kind, where they arose from the passions only, and not the depra vities of the heart. He was reserved to the many, but there were a chosen few, who, hav ing passed that barrier, were wooed by his friendship to push their for tunes, till they finally gained footing in the citadel of his esteem. He had a tear: for we have seen it shed with parental solicitude over the manifold error ? and follies of our unworthy youth, lie shed a tear of sorrow tor his suffering country io the dark hoar of her destiny, nud a tear of joy au<l giV.it »tfe to ijeavea
