Feb.’- 1527 | I THE CASKET, OR FLOWERS OF WIT AND SENTIMENT. I FOR 1527. Ofuice of the Saturday Er. post. Philadelphia, Dec. 2. 1826. ! THE CASKET, or rioirers of Literature, Wit and Sentiment, which has had an unpre cedented increase of patrons during the last six months, will after the present volume is finished, contain, each number, 40 octavo pages, printed well, on small 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 collection from the choicest pieces of the Sat urday Evening Post, made with a reffi rence to the difference 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 off'by a recital of the occurrences of the week. The latter can receive little value from a mere detail of events, many of which would cease to be interesting before they were recorded. The vast quantity of matter crowded, by small type and caretui arrangement, into the columns of every number of the Saturday Evening Post, will in the course of a month, furnish the most ample materials from which to form an interesting periodical work such as the Casket has been considered by its partial friends, and such as we intend it shall be. Notwithstanding the fact, that the Cas ket is but a collection from the columns of the Saturday Evening Post, 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 the family where it is received, and this general use frequently injures ijs appearance so much as alniost to render it unfit for the file, or for binding. The numbers too, by this general use, are not unfrequently 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. —In thus giving a permanent form and select associa tion to the choice pieces of ouF weekly con tributors, it is confidently anticipated that new and successful indi'CflUneiAswill beheld •bfit for of superior talent, and unusnuLrtiro-in our literary.\tiepartment.—ln addition to” the .rccommendtitioh of neatness general appearance. —and particular attention to thd-typographical execution, it is .on? intention to.embellish each number of the “Casket” with three handsome Engravings from the hands of some es the most, distin guished artists of the country. ■ V» ith 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 j !y believed, is much lower than that for any ' other publication of a similar character in tin’s country —but to the subscribers of the “Saturday Evening Post” the “Casket” will be, furnished for $2,00. The January No. so: 1827, will be em bellished wtth 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 MOI NT W ATER WORKS, in the vicinity of Philadelphia ; I>esid f s the first No. of the SCHOOL OF FLORA, being the commencement of a regular series of Treaties ; on Botany, illustrated with numerous cuts. Post-Masters and publishers of papers who will interest themselves in obtaining subscri bers, and be responsible for the subscription, shall be entitled to every sixth copy gratis.

[OR $4 IF NOT PAID IN SIX MONTHS. [Concluded f rom onr last] At the commencement of bostik* ties, m 1775. Bishop being too old for active service, was left at home in charge of the manufacturing e£~ tablishments of the household, where the veteran would flourish bis cane, exacting asperlect obedience as tho’t he had been on parade. A com fortable house had been built for him; he had married; and. looking no more toward his native land, he was contented to pass the remainder of bis days on the domain of his pat ron, where ho rested from labor, in the enjoyment of every possible ease and indulgence —the reward of his long and faithful services. In his comfortable homestead, and library with age he would delight the young with talcs of fearful interest oi the Indian wars—while, his ow'u wars ended, and at peace with the world he feebly trimmed the lamp of life, which, having burned for more than eighty years, could but for a little while longer be kept from sinking in its socket. Notwithstanding his perfect rev erence for his patron, this old soldier would sometimes presuming on the privilege of age and long services, chafe his protector on points of ex pediency, though never on those of obedience. r l'be General would as sume a lofty tone, saying, it is very well, sir; if you arc at length tired of my service, you arc at perfect liber ty to depart. The ancient follower of Braddock, however, knew bis man, and knew exactly what best to do; be wisely became silent, and tho storm which appeared to be brood ing quickly passed away, when a ro turning sunshine cheered with tho warmth of its kindness the veteran of SG. The Washington family were sub ject to here ditary gout —the Chief never experienced a pang. His tem perance. and the energetic employ ment of both his body and mind, seemed to forbid the approach of a disease, which severely afflicted sev eral of his nearest kindred. His ill nesses were of rare occurrence, but were particularly severe; his aver sion to the uses of medicine was ex treme: for, even when in great suf sering it was only by the entreaties of his lady, and the respectful, yel beseeching look, of his oldest friend and companion in arms, (Dr. James Craik-f that he could be prevailed upon to take the slightest prepara tion of medicine. He certainly nev er had children. We recollect a lady who called hcrselfhis daughter. She was a fine looking woman, but without any particular likeness to the Chief, nor can we consider that as a pardonable vanity in a child, which implicates the honor of a pa ren . The remarkable degree of admira tion awe that was felt by every one, upon the first approach to Washing ton, evidences the imposing power and sublimity which belongs to real greatness. Even the frequenters of the Courts of Princes were sensible of this exalted feeling, when in pre sence of the hero, who, formed for ' the highest destines, bore an impress j from nature, which declared him to Ibe one among the noblest of her ' works. ! Those who have only seen tiro Leader of Armies and the Chief Ma- Igistrate of the Republic can have ■ but an imperfect idea of the same ; mg, when merged into the retired I 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 iu error, in supposing that there be*- longed to this awful man nothing of the gentler sort —"no tear for pity.” The Master Spirit in the direction of those vast events which gave a nev/ empire to the world, the austerity of command could never destroy tho«t> kindlier feelings in which he delight ed himself to indulge, and to dis pense them to others. Stern he was to all whom he deemed wanting io those high moral requisites, which dignity and adorn our natures—stem he was to the disturbers of the re pose of Society, the violators cf those? institutes which promote peace and good will among men; but ho ww 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 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 errors and follies of our unworthy youth. He shed a tear of sorrow for bis suffering country ftj the dark hour of her destiny, and a tear of joy ?.cd gratitude to Hea’xn
