• sUN DAV MORNIN3, OCTOBER 16.
Old Hickory.
It is stated in some of the Boston papers that
„ \ Miller will not be disturbed as Collector
fSalem” We pre sume this ** vlr - Miller,” the
r Hector of Salem, is the soldier who replied,
i.T’i! try sir,” when his commanding officer in
whether a strong battery near the falls
Ids he earned, in the war of 1812. He fought
C | throa-’h the war,and was always found where
*' hardest blows were going. There was no
1 „ a jknt or meritorious man in the army,
tr ‘°j t ], e value ot his services were repeatedly
fj, ‘nowled, both by his commanders and by dif
nt legislative bodies. His chivalrous courage
k rd coolness, in circumstances of great peril,
a "ere proverbial throughout the whole north-
frontier. On the reduction of the army
Tttie dose of the war. he retired to private life ;
8 ) soo n after President Monroe gave him the
llectorehip of Salem —not on account of any
C °rtizan or political services, but because of his
hU personal character, arid the distinguished
«rvices he had rendered his country.
Qd the accession of General Jackson, the small
atje of intriguers who clustered around the
‘■Bjston Statesman,” assuming to be the demo
cratic party o! Massachusetts, had apportioned
the federal offices in that State among them
elves To one of their number was assigned the
electorship ot Salem. The war-worn Miller
aS p r p S cribed without hesitation or compunc
tion. The selections made by the Statesman
clique were accepted by Old Hickory, without
examination or inquiry, and Gen. Miller’s suc
cessor was nominated to the Senate. When the
nomination came to be acted upon, Col. Benton
interposed, and asked that it might lie over. He
was sure the President would not intentionally
femove the incumbent —there must be some mis
take about it, and he desired time to bring the
{act* of the case to his consideration. The re
f)]egt was complied with ; as a matter of course,
Col. Benton immediately waited upon Gen.
Jackson, and the interview is said to have been
one of high interest. A gentleman who was in
timate at the White House used to describe it
somewhat in this style :
•Gen. Jackson, do you know, sir, who is Col
lector at the port of Salem, Massachusets ?”
"1 can't think of his name, Colonel, although I’ve
fust sent it up to the Senate. But he is a good
democrat, too, for Greene and Henshaw both told
me so.”
“But, sir,” contined Col. 8., “I beg to in
quire, sir, whether you know who the present
incumbent is, sir—the officer whom you intend
to remove, sir ?”
‘No, sir, I can’t remember his name ; but I
know he is a New England, Hartford Con
vention Federalists, for Greene and Henshaw
told me so.”
“Sir, the present Collector of Salem is Gen.
Miller, sir, who fought with so much distinction
on the Northern frontier, in the war with Great
Britain, sir.”
“Not the brave Col. Miller, who said “I’ll
try!” when asked if he could take that
British entrarichment at Bridgewater ?”
“Yes, sir,” said Col. Benton, “he is the same
man, sir.”
“The he is! Where’s Donelson ?”
A sharp pull at the bell, tallowed by the
prompt api»earance of a servant.
“Tell Col. Donelson 1 want him quick.”
Mr. Donelson entered.
‘ Donelson, I want the name of the fellow
nominated for Collector at Salem withdrawn
instantly. By the Eternal these politians are
the most remorseless scoundrels alive. Write a
letter to Gen. Miller, and tell him he shall hold
the office as long as Andrew Jackson lives
Stay, I’ll write it myself—the assurance will be
more gratifying from a brother Soidier.”
The warm-hearted old gentleman kept his
promise to the letter.
The Beautiful.
We take the following, by Uriah H. Judab,
from the Journal of Commerce :
List reader, list, and I will tell what is beauti
ful.-
A good man struggling with misfortune, and
preserving unstained his reputation.
A dutiful child obeying the mandates of pa
rents, and walking in the way of righteous
ness.
Sinful mortality on bended knees craving
from on high pardon for past transgressions:
“ Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those
who trespass against us.”
Mortality relieving the wants of mortality,
by advancing the cause of the destitute :
For ’tis most beautiful to roam ’mid the for
ttken haunts of despair, to still the groans of
iorrow, and spread bread on the empty tables of
the tarnishing. Ay ! and rescue the fallen, and
make glad the overcharged heart of the op
pressed :
4 Pluck out from the memory a rooted sorrow,
Rase out the written troubles of the brain ;
And, in some sweet oblivion’s antidote,
Cleans the foul bosom of that perilous stuff
That weighs upon the heart.”
And beautiful is woman around the fevered
Wof sickness, pillowing the pale cheek, bath
ing and binding; up the fainting brow, and, like
a lorm of light, whispering “ hope,” where else
■ here had been none :
When a man is waxing frail,
And his hand is thin and weak ;
And his lips are parched and pale,
And wan and white his cheek—
Oh! then doth woman prove
Her constancy and love.
Tis beautiful to cast over the foibles of thy
rother worm the bioad and divine mantle of
mercy, and to forgive the erring sister, as tbou
w °uldst that heaven would be merciful to thee,
a *mner!
* * * * # * *
God has given us a beautiful world as a tran
£ ° r y “bode, and the rivers, the streams, the
the flowers, the birds, the trees, and all
•iwjnd are beautiful.
The sun is beautiful as he ascends the spark
ng sky, and the moon, as she reflects her bril-
o’er the head of all.
n d, thou, oh ? High and Holy One, art the
•ummer of all beauty.:
Beautiful is thy realm 1
* And tby throne,
Thy promise to man,
And thy protecting care !
*ngels of Paradise are beautiful; the
t ant g aseent is beautiful; the soul in its puri
condition is beautiful.
1,4 beautilul—superlatively beautiful, and
■os melodious will be the sound of the “ Arch
,trumP to those who, on that eventful
final morn, shall have awarded to them life
e 'erlaßting:
®°d hath made this world so fair;
« here sin and death abound ;
beautiful beyond compare,
" ill Paradise be found !

This boat was built in this city, and great care

Her entire cargo will be taken between decks,
which will not only prevent damage to goods in
