A letter from a highly respectable mer chant at Port au Prince, dated the 14th ult. says, “ The Chambre dcs Communes was opened for an extra session three days since. The speech of the President was very pa triotic, and savoured strorigly* of tear.' He announced that tire dispatches received trom the french Government were very unsatisfactory, and that it behoved all to be prepared for the worst. 1 have never seen more anxiety exhibited by the people gene rally than at this moment.”—JY. Y. Guz. Post Masters.—The law passed during the late session of Congress, establishing post routes, and regulating the post office department, provides that no Postmaster, x>r Assistant Postmaster, shall act as .agent for lottery offices, or vend lottery tickets ; nor receive, free of postage, or frank, lottery schemes, circulars, or tickets, under a pe nalty of fifty dollars., Judge Pendleton, of Dutchess county, New York, has recently imported three Thibet goats, of the purest race. It is this animal which furnishes the wool for the manufacture of the celebrated Cashmere Shawls. Those imported by Judge P. are entirely white. The distinguishing mark of the animal is a long and pendant ear : the ir motions are slow, gentle and peaceful ; they are at the same time very hardy, and will doubtless thrive in this climate. The venerable Charles Wilson Peale, who lately died in Philadelphia, and who was weirknown as the founder of the Phila delphia Museum, has not been noticed as much as he deserved. He was an admirable painter—nor will his name be forgotten as long as the Mammoth, whose bones he gath ered, and whose history lie settled, contin ues to occupy a place in that most splendid id collection w hich he made, and jPWfaMlelphia should be proud.

We are sorry, however, to notice an instance in which these impressions either could not have been the rule of action, or else it was chosen to abandon the course they point out. In our last was inserted a piece with the signature of * Norval,’ who, unlike the hero of “ the Grampian hills,” has himself become the depredator; not exactly in sweeping flocks and herds,” but in making prize of the ornaments of a periodical, the piece being a mere transcript from "the ‘Athenaeum,’ with only the names altered, as we were afterwards shown.—The estimation in which these ‘ piracies ’ are held, is so generally known, that it is unnecessary to say a word on the subject; but we must state, that we take no reproach to ourselves in any such case, for not detecting it on presentation. A person must he quite industrious, besides haring a retentive memory,if he reads and recollects barely the titles, setting aside the contents, of the numerous publications every day issuing from the press. To * compare small things with great,’ it is but a short time since the professors of Yale college were deceived, and award ed their medal to a student for an essay extracted from so well-known a publication as Blackwood’s Magazine.—We must, nevertheless, commend the judgment displayed in Norval’s selection. piishmerits which are,absoftitel^ pecessamf to constitute'the beati, I wiirnoV enurnerate a fete of those which m^y he deemed ap se can sometimes be dispensed with,-for ins stance, a frock coat with pockets sufficient ly capacious to contain one hair-brush, one bottle cologne water, lots of smelling bot tles, (in case of swooning,) and any quan tity of love-sick ditties.

Mysterious Absence.—Two or three days ago, a Mrs. Jones, who resides in Whites- town, called at our office, and related the follow ng particulars, requesting us to give them publicity, in the hope that it might be a means of restoring to an afflicted wife and family, a husband and father, if he be living, or of ascertaining the time and manner of his death, if he is dead. * On the 15th of December last, John Wil liam Jones, by occupation a farmer, left his residence in Whitestown, with an inten tion of visiting his son in Homer, and was to return in about two or three weeks. He had $100 in money with him, and was ac companied by a man who was owing him a- bout $100, whose name, for obvious rea sons, wc do not think proper at this time to mention. After an absence of about eight or ten days this person returned, and inform ed that he left Jones in Homer. Two months having passed since he left home, and nothing been heard sister proceeded last and were surprised to find been there. As may well be supposed, their anxiety . on learning this fact, was extreme, as no probable cause was known to exist for his voluntarily remaining absent, the most painful apprehension are entertained, that some fatal accident has be fallen him. Any information on this subjec t directed to Mary Jones, N. Hartford Post- Office, Oneida county, N. Y. will be grate fully received. Editors generally, w^»ld also confer a favour on an afflicted family, by giving the substance, at least, of this ar ticle an insertion in their papers. Said Jones is 3G years old, about six feet high, with sandy hair and whiskers, light cvjpplexioa and blue eyes. The letter J. imprinted on one of his arms, below the el- lu w, in India ink. His dress, when he left home, was a new blue broadcloth coat, pan taloons, and vest; black fur hat considerably worn, and a pair of cow-hide boots. Cazenovia Monitor. [The past few days has made us particularly alive to the subject of the. following piece; we presume a similar annoyance must have first suggested it.] FOn THE ATHENIAN. YE angry winds where keep ye your abode ? Is it in gloomy caverns of the earth, Unseen, unknown to mortal man, In which, from morn till night ye restless moan, Till at length having found a narrow vent, With hideous howl ye whistle forth, Nut unlike a pack of hungry tigers Eager for their helpless prey ? O’er earth’s vast surface ye with fury sweep, Prostrating forests, beautiful and lofty, With your destructive power. Anon, ye reach the gorgeous palace, And with defying whistle, smite its every end, And on thy broad extended wings Waftest it aloft: and having spent thy wrath, Leavest it shattered in a thousand clefts, To moulder in a foreign clime. The lofty pine to thee must bow with fear, And waving to and fro, humbly beg for quarters: Till having wreaked thy cruel vengeance On earth’s ex tended plains, Ye,-with fiercer bowlings, quick embark On the great world of-waters. Arousing surges from the inmost deep. And rearing mountain billows to the skies, “ In dreadful tumult swelled,” wave above wave, Ye with redoubled fury huilest them Against the reeling ship, and buriest all her crew Who, with terrors various, and hands outstretched Imploring a short respite to prepare, Without delay, ye, with power immense, Mergest them down to the earth’s deep centre.

To Jerry Hawthorn Dear Jerry—Having learned that you are aboiit to abandon the rustic scenes of your natiwy, for those of a fashionable town amp the cells of learning, I take the liberty or giving you a friendly hint concerning things you should attend to, if you, connection with your other objects, pur pose to become an accomplished beau, to which you will certainly have great induce ment and abundant example ; though I must confess, my advice is more the result of observation, w-hilst there, than of my ow experience. As soon therefore, as you shall have de termined on becoming a member of the fashions, it will be necessary to divest your self of every thing bearing a rustice appear ance. Your old half-a-bushel go-to-mill hat, with which you were accustomed to carry corn to your father’s pigs, must be laid aside and its place assumed by an elegant bell-crown of the first cut; and instead bf ponderous bull-skin sabbots, it is required that you wear a Northern pair of boots or bootees, with no ordinary length bf brazen heels; this item cannot possibly be dispensed with, for should you enter the church during divine service and fail to annoy the rational part of the congregation, or to drown the voice of the minister, you would be pointed at by your fellow-dandies as a rvstic t and totally ignorant of fashions and civilized life ; be sides, tvere you destitute of the last men tioned article, you would be incapable of producing such a prodigious clattering, as is necessary to attract the eyes of the beauesses, (belles.) Upon all occasions, and especially when so fortunate as to enjoy the opportunity of adventures at a lady’s side, jn the ceremony of gallanting them to and fro, it is proper that you be armed with a neat silver-head ed cane, in order, I suppose, “ To fright the souls of fearful adversaries.” Never omit “ going to see the gfrls”|K"»e or ten times in one week, and ifr> whilst on a visit, you are accompanied by one unac- as gfiumfully rejected as the first attempts of Demosthenes to please the Athenians ; yet like him, I will try a third time,If per haps, that, ashamed of your former conduct, admiring my perseverance, or considering that I am some youth who needs encourage ment, you may give publicity to my next; but before I precede further 1 sha/ lay the Bates.
