The principles ol the science are dearly explained and illustrated, ill so great a variety of ways as to fix ilmm permanently in the mind. Our practice affords ample m*an« of exhibiting to *tu dents the symptoms of disease, the modus operand! of medi cines, and the various and most convenient and proper ways and means of rendering the remedial agents atul the curative process effectual. The science of Botany ia familiarly nnd practically taught itt such a manner as not only to acquaint the student with the Botanic Mntrri* Mcdica; but to enable him to examine the whole vegetable kingdom vvuh pleasure a-.d profit. It is illustrated, not morel* by book* and plates, but by ana tomical examinations of tho natural subjects, nnd by oral instructions ia the field, hs well a* in the lecture room.— Each student is taught to label and preserve plants for his future benefit. „ . Instructions are givmi and lectures delivered on Natural Philosophy and Chemistry. Much attention is devoted lo Midwifery, and tho forms of Disease peculiar to Women and Children, . ,, Anatomy, Physiology and Surgery receive all desirable attention, and the old theories ami practices meet their just due, ina thorough examination, and comparison with the Botanic. . The Botanic Text Bo ks are Dr. Thomson * Narrative and New Guide to Health, Dt Dr. Robinson* lectures, the Thomsonian Recorder from the beginning, the Discus sion* between the .Mineral and Botanic Faculties; A.L.* Manuscript Lectures on the Science of Medicine, .mi Mid* wilery and the Diseases peculiar to YVonrn nnd Children; Eaton’s Manual of Botany, Rafniesquc’s Medical Bota ny, &c. Comstock’* Natural Philosophy and Chemistry. The bc*t 'Text Books on Anatomy, Surgery, Physiology, Pathology, Therapeutics, and every other branch of “Medi cal Science,” falsely no called, are contained in our library, to which the student may have reference; hot he must pur chase for his own use, nt least one standard work on each of the subject* to which he devote# particular attention. TERMS. We have a select and valuable Library, arid a room in which Lecture* and instructions are given. For tlic regu lar tuition and the use of theke, one dollar per week is charged.

R. CHARLET. Tliojc who are born poets, \vi!i (inti food for the desire within liiom, under the most ungenial circumstances, and in the harshest trials; just as the real lover of flowers will contrive not lo be without a leaf or a bttd, wherew ith to cheer his eye, though his home be the most airless court in the heart of a vast city. To some, persecu tion and difficulty arc salutary, and rltetr ener gy must be aroused by resis'ance. Mrs. Ho- mans was not one of these. I have often thought that there could be few lots more favor- able to the dcvelopement of the imagination and sentiment, more calculated to excite a thirst for knowledge, than hers; her own peculiar dispo sition being taken into the account.—Enough, was granted to encourage—enough withheld to quicken aspiration. The unkindness of fortune left her something to wish for; and to one organ ized like herself, must have given an ideal beanly and importance to a thousand objects which, when received as matters of course, lose their charm and authority. And while, on the one hand, the refinements of life were enhanced in value by restricted circumstances, her mind on the other—unvitiated by any experience of the aitificial world—was drinking in high thoughts and glorious images from the books (what treasures are these to the young enthusi ast!) which found ihe way to her retreat, and which site Itfl-ed and adopted of her own accord and not in pursuance of any routine. Site was never at - chool; had she been sent to one, she might probably have run away; and I am told that the only things she was ever regularly taught were French, English Grammar, nnd the rudiments of Latin, communicated to her by a gentleman, who used to deplore “that she was not a man to have borne away the highest hon ors at college!” Occasionally too, she may have been benefited by a passing glimpse of some gifted person. One hour of such an angel visit does more lo unfold and assist the mind at that lime of life, when the spirit is almost tumul tuously awake, than days, months of intercourse at a period of soberer ago and experience, words are treasured, looks remembered, chance thoughts take root in the heart, teeming with the principle of life; while the very consciousness of being able to appreciate and value the socie. tjr oftl»o*o, who givo forth ilicir treasures to the young with a freedom nnd a warmth, which is checked by suspicion in their intercourse with the more sophisticated, has, in itself, a worid r- working spell, under the influence whereof the enthusiast listens, remembers, combines, creates, and is hurried to that most delicious moment of life, when no difficulties darken the future, and in the fulness of joy and inexperience, he feels wttiiin himself 1 "K/auche, io son' pocla!” But to follow the digression yet a step further; while such are the peculiar advantages and pleasures which attend the youth of genius de veloping ilselfin seclusion, that condition is sub ject to other influences to winch it may be well, nay, it is a duty lor one to advert, who would trace out the poetic character with reference to the high destinies of ihe art. The same posi tion which is most favorable to the imagination may be unfriendly to the general sympathies. Tite young recluse, feeling himself apart and a- lone in the light of his mind, the idol of a small and devoted circle, is too apt to throw himself exclusively upon peculiar veins of thought; too fastidiously to adhere to such objecls alone as are dearest to the poet’s highest attribute.—He looks at the world from a distance, and can on ly fix upon those who tower above the common crowd: if he tolerates its murmur, it is for the sake of some fragmentary tones of music which mingle therewith.—The rest of its inhabitants are to him “the common herd,” the other sounds, a Babel of folly and discord, from which ho hives to bide himself in the pleasure gardens of his own fancy. And he turns away with a generous but short sighted scorn from the small pleasures and small cares of common life; for getting that inasmuch as ihe use ot monastic religion and monas'.ic learning has passed away with the feudal days of nobles and villains, it is not only wise for his own spirit but incumbent ujion him as the steward of a noble heritage, to do something besides toiling in this retired fairy land of his own; that lie' is bound to labor in the wider though less congenial fields of human life and affeciion, which arc peopled with the homely as well as the elegant, the weak as well as the strong. A man cannot far advance on his pilgrimage without his views becoming widened by that ac uni collision wiih lilts which a woman can rarely experience: yet how many a one is there, who on tho plea of the lonelinesss of genius, has never known the strength and joy of his own spirit and has passed away like ihe vapor of the morning! But for one of the gentler sex, shielded as sh* is by her position in society—en grossed by afli-ctions which color every object coming within their circle; there is always too great a danger of being too exclusive in her do- votions; without (o these conditions being add ed, that of retirement from the world to confirm her in hero-worship solely offered to the great and gifted, te encourage her undue shrinking from all that jars upon her highly wrought and sensitive feelings. " It would be dilficult, were the whole range of our imaginative literature searched through, to discover a more peifect illustration of the above remarks than is to be found in the works of Mrs. Ilemans, and in the * regress of m ud they register. That she did only a partial justice lo her powers, must be admitted by all who ever held friendly intercourse with her; they will fed, too, that she was summoned away at the moment when she might, and must have risen higher than she had ever done before. Her first works arc purely classical or purely ro. mantie; their poem* may be compared to an tique groups of sculpture, or the mailed orna- mental figures of the middle ages set in mo tion. Asslie advanced on h"r way, sadly learning the whilo the grave leasons which time and trial teach, her songs breathed more reality and loss of romance; the too exclusive and feverish reverence for high intellectual or imaginative endowmenj, yielded to a calmness, and a checrfuldess, and a willingness more and more, not merely to speculate upon, but to par- take of the “beauty in our daily paths.”—Had she lived lo bring these ye! more fully to bear upon the stores of knowledge site had heaped up, she would have produced a work as far su perior to any she has left us, as her own latest lyrics and scenes exceed the prize poems of her gitlhood:—the first frigid exercises of a ti mid and tramelled writer. ON DOMESTIC EMPLOYMENTS. BT MRS. SIGOURNEY. We have been amongst the admirers of Mrs. Sigourney as a poetess, and her pro ductions as a prose writer have heighten ed our respect. The subjoined extract is taken from an essay of this really phi losophical writer. The essay is address ed to her own sex, but the general conclu sions apply, if possible, with more force to the opposite sex, upon whom the ster ner duties of life depend. In softening and sweetening the duties of private life, are the obligations less binding on men than on women? The fact is, that it de mands exactly die same amiable qualities in every member of a family, to make the domestic hearth the heaven of happi ness.—Nat. Intel. I have even thought it desirable that young ladies should make themselves the mistresses of some attainment, either in art or science, by which they might se cure .a subsistence, should thev be reduc ed to poverty. Sudden and entire re verses <ire not uncommon in the history of aifluence. To sustain them without the means of lessening the evils of depen dence, when health and intellect are at our command, is adding helplessness to our own affliction, and increasing the burthen of Olliers. When the illustrious Henry Laurens, by the fortune of our war of Revolution, was hold a prisoner in the Tower of London, he wrote to his two daughters, who had been nurtured in all the -tenderness and luxury of Carolina wealth: “It is my duty to warn you to prepare for the trial of earning your daily' bread by your daily labor. Fear not servitude; encounter it, if it shall be ne cessary, with the spirit becoming a wo man of an honest and pious heart; one who has been neither fashionably nor af fectedly religious.” The accomplished Madame de Gonlis pronounced herself to be in possession of thirty trades or varieties of occupation, by which she could, if necessary, obtain a livelihood. It was a wise law of some of the ancient Governments which com pelled every parent to give his son some trade or profession, adequate to his sup port. Such is now the variety of depart ments open to females as instructors in schools and seminaries of their own %ex, that they mny follow the impulse of their genius in the selection of a study or ac complishment, and, while they pursue it as a pleasure, can still bo prepared to practice it as a profession. Among the plPasani employments which seem pecu liarly congenial to the feelings of our sex, the culture of Powers stands censpieumjs- The genial superintendence of a garden lias been repeatedly found favorable to health, by leading to frequent exercise in the open air, and that communing with Nature which is equally refreshing to tho heart. It was laboring with her own hands in her garden, that the mother of Wash ington was found by the youthful Marquis de Lafayette, when he sought her bless ing, as he was about commit himself to the ocean, and return to his native clime. Milton, who you recollect, was a great advocate that women should “study household good,” has few more eloquent descriptions than those which represent our first mother at her floral toil amid the sinless shades of Paradise. The tending" of flowers has ever ap peared to me to be a fitting care for the young and beautiful. They then dwell as it were among their own emblems, and many a voice of wisdom breathes on their ear from those brief blossoms to which they apportion the dew and the sun-beam. While they eradicate the weeds that deform, or the excrescences that endanger them, is there not a per petual motion uttered of the work to be done in their own heart? From the admi ration of these ever-varying charms, how naturally is the tender spirit led upward in devotion to Hint “whosehand perfumes them, and whose pencil paints.” Con nected with the nature of flowers is the delightful study' of botany, which imparts new attractions to the summer sylvan walks, and prompts both lo salubrious ex ercise and scientific research. A know ledge of the physiology of plants is not only interesting in itself, but of practical import. The brilliant coloring matter which they sometimes yield, and the beau tiful influences which they possess, im part value to many an unsightly shrub or secluded plant, which might otherwise have been suffered to blossom and die without a thought. It is cheering amid our solitary rambles to view the subjects that surround us as friends, to call to recollection their dis tinctive lineaments of character, to array them with something of intelligence or she will be expected to do, and ought therefore to learn, and to learn early, if she would acquit herself creditably.— Though to combine the excellencies of a housekeeper, with much eminence in li terature or science, requires an energy seldom possessed, still there is no need that domestic duties should preclude mental improvement or extinguish intel lectual enjoyment. They may be united by diligence anti perseverance, and the foundation of those qualities should be laid note in youth. RUSSIAN MODli OF MAKING BUTTER. Sir—Observing in a monthly scientific jour- ylility, and to enjoy an intjmate compan ionship with Nature. The female abori gines of our country were distinguished by an extensive acquaintance with the medicinal properties of plants anil roots, which enabled them, both in peace and war, to be the healers of their tribes. I would not counsel you to invade the pro vince of the physician; in our slate of so ciety it would be preposterous and ar.o- gant. But sometimes to alleviate the slight indisposition of those you love by a simple infusion of the herbs you have reared or gathered, is a legitimate branch of that nursing kindness which seems in terwoven with Woman’s nature. And now, to sum up the whole matter, though in the morning of youth a charm is thrown over the landscape, every ine quality smoothed, jet still life is not “one long summer’s day of indolence and mirth.” The sphere of woman is emin ently practical- There is much which nal, an article on the subject of making butter in the winter, i beg leave to furnish the parti culars on that subject, as practised in Russia since the year 1810, and which may, perhaps, be of some service to-those who may be in duced to make the experiment either in sum mer or winter. Being in that country in the year 1834,1 was informed by a Russian noble man, IhntSbe proprietor of an extensive oslate (also n noble an of high rank) had discovered a new mode of making butter, and had received letters patent from tho Omperfti ns a reward fur the discovery, and which he stated at the time ns being in full and successful operation. The process consisted in boiling (or ratfier a species of boiling, called simmering) the milk for the space of fifteen minutes in its sweet state; ob serving at the same time not to use a sufficient heat to burn the nulk. It is then churned in the usual way. He also stated that no difficulty ever occurred in procuring butter immediately, and of a quality superior larto that made from milk wh'ch had un'Jetgone vinous fermentation; and that in addition to its superior flavor, it would preserve its qualities much longer than that made in the ordinary way; that the addi tional advantages were, that the milk, being left sweet, is almost possessed of the same va lue for ordinary purposes, and bv some consi dered more healthy, as they supposed the boil ing or scalding to destroy the animalcules, ot whatever it might have contained. If the above process should, upon exper:- ment prove of sufficient importance as to bring it into general use, particularly in the winter, it would perhaps be to the advantage of those who may practise it, to have their milk scalded in vessels calculated to stand in the kcitle or boiler, by which mode the danger of burning the milk would be avoided, for it is ascertained that milk only burns on the edges of its stir. fii£e, or where it comes it! contact with the sides of the vessel in which it is heated, which can never happen in double kettles, or where one is placed within the other.—Botanic Sentinel. From the. Philadelphia Age. Ole Bull the Norwegian Violinist.—To A- mericans the above name is one of little notori ety—but in England at the present time, it is n theme of engrossing interest. Ole Bull, the ri val of Paganini, and in some respects his superi or, ia'a Norwegian by birth. He was born in the lowest obscurity nnd poverty, and a mere chance brought him into public notice. The director of the Opera in Bologna happened once to be in great embarassment, through the failure of an engagement made byDe Be riot and Matibran. Ho was in the utmost distress, and knew not what to resort to.— Madame Rossini, to whom he was relating his troubles, informed him that by rare chance, in passing near the windows ofa hotel, she hod heard the most en chanting, marvellous and singular strains from violin. They proceeded from the violin of Ole Bull. This was a God send; nnrl the manager found his man. The artist was in- duC°d to appear before tite city of Bologna, and his success triumphant. It is related that during his performance ihe audience seemed to forget themselves, ana hung in,breathless at tention upon bis strains; and ev<;n remained in silent wonder, as if si ruck dumb for several min utes after he bad ceased playing. From Bologna he passed to Lucca, Flor ence, Milan, Rome and Venice, and the im pression he made was yet greater and more de cisivo. The enthusiasm of the audience was roused to ihe highest pitch, and in one instance he was called out nine times to receive tlic thanks and plaudits of the audience. The poo- pie in the Italian cities, with their natural ad miration of musical talent, surrounded him in tho public streets, and followed his footsteps with loud and frequent cheers. In London his success was no less complete. Greater enthu siasm was never elicited from an audience than during his performances. His great triumph wtts iu the Polueea Gueriera, which offered a fair exhibition of his distinguishing traits. He has acquired an immense sum of money, and absolutely drains the larger Theatres when he performs at the Opera House, so great is the desire lo hear him. He is a simple, modest, kind hearted man, and in no way resembles Pngnnani. He early discovered a talent for music, and sought the first opportunity to purchase himself a violin. He was accustomed to play for the villagers while they danced, and troops of girls came in from miles round to hear Ole Bull play, and.to dance to his music.—Hts fame was lor a long time confined to ihe narrow circle of hisjtsso- ciates. By some means or other he got into Italy, where he sustained himself'by menial services, and occasionally by his violin. He is now amen of fortune, and it is said bears with moderation and meekness his unparalleled success. EXTRACT FROM WIRT. Excrsrivo wealth is neither glory nor happi- ness,—The cold wretch who thinks only of him self; who draws his hand within its phell and never puls it out but for the purpose of lucre and ostentation, who looks upon his fellow crea tures not only without sympathy, but with nrro. trance and insolence, ns if they were made to be bis vassals, and lie was made their lord; as if they were for no other purpose than to pam per his avarice, or to contribute to his aggran dizement.

Be content With that, and if the horn of pleniv overflow, let itsdropings of lion- ey in the wilderness, bo to cheer tho way worn pilgrim. 1 wish you indeed to bo distinguished; but wealth is not essential to distinction. Look at tho illustrious patriots, philosophers and phi- lantbrophists, who in various ages have blessed the world; was it their wealth that made them great? where was the wealth of Aristides, of Socrates, of Plato, Epaminodas, of Fabticus, of Cincinattus, and a countless host upon the rolls of fame? Their wealth was in their mind and heart.—These arc the treasures by which they have been immortalized, and such nlone are treasures that are worlh a serious struggle. John Ross, the celebrated Indian Chief lms been for several weeks ptist, among tho western Cherokees, for the purport, it is said, of getting up a delegation from them to join the delegations from Geor gia, to proceed to Washington City, for the purpose of inducing he government to renounce Schermerhom’s Treaty, to which, it is averred, they never gave their consent*—Arkansas Suite Gazette 2Oth tilt. From the Correspondence of the Dajihf Exyretsr. GEN. SAN FA AN.Na AND COL. ALSoM'E. On. hoard steamer Adriatic, Hirer, near Lowsvil/e, Dec. 24, 1&&L Dear Sirs—We have among our pag* sengers on board this steamer, Gen. &au- ta Anna and his Secretary, Col. Almonte —alsoColoneisHackley, Fatten and Bee, of the Texian army* The latter per sons, act as protectors to Santa Anna du ring his journey to Washington City for the purjtose of obtaining the. mediation of the United States Government, in a trea ty' in which he has promised to acknow ledge the independence of TexaA- The Texian officers state that Sant* Anna, some time since, wrote to Gen. Jackson, requesting his mediation in such a treaty, and that the latter, in a written reply, stated that he could not mediate between parties, one of which was a prisoner of war. Therefore the 'JVxiaf! authorities have authorized his release and return to Mexico for the purpose of securing a treaty recognizing their inde pendence and obviating the difficulty stated hy Gen. Jackson. Now if you will excuse this illegible communication on the ground that I write on board asleambont in motion, I will at tempt to describe to you as Well as [ can, the appearance of those two individuals, viz: Santa Anna and his Secretary. Imagine to yourself a man of full or dinary stature, forty years of age, weigh ing about one hundred and sixty pounds, of graceful form, and step, rouad shoul dered, with black glossy hair, tolerably full white face and round forehead, it short squarish inferior looking nose, and a round dark eye somewhat sunken. Sup pose him dressed in a genteel tr.til-bodied black coat and blue pantaloons, W'alking about or setting coose-legged in a pair of slip-shod pumps, tolerably pleasant of countenance and speech, (which is exclu sively Spanish,) very polite, and using stately compliments. .Such is the ap pearance of Gen. Antonio Lope^ ml Santa Anna. He has, in my view, no thing military in his look, and nothing in dicating great talents. He would, readi ly betaken, I think, lor an active intelli gent merchant or man ol general busi ness. He is very reserved, plain and. modest in his conversation and Hi tinners’,- as far as I have observed him. I can see nothing villainous or deceitful in lbs coun tenance. Under his dark eye one can im agine (but not clearly perceive) a lurking demon. I think that with the exception! of his inferior stubby nose, he. may be considered as elegant in figure ami re spectable in features. He confined him self to his State Room under the plea o€ indisposition, although it is well uxuh-r- stood that his true reasons are, fear of the popular gaze, and mi attack from some incensed person. Col. Almonte whom I will next intro duce to you is and has been almost eon-- stantly about the cabin, cracking his jokes as well as conversing freely and laughing heartily with all who are intimate with him or choose to seek his conversation* He is said to be thirty-three years of age' —although a few would take him to lie not over twenty-five. He is of a copper or Indian complexion, with a thick head of straight black glossy hair. Ahtiough he speaks the English language well yet a "lance at him convinces you that he is a Mexican or Spaniard. He is a short, thickset, square built young man, with large head and broad open mouth and features—very muscular, active and live ly. His countenance as well as eon ver sa t ion is very intelligent. There is a iTrv ble sincerity and frankness depicted in his countenance and manner. His dress' is a frock coat and pantaloons of black cloth, with a cloth cap and genteel calf skin boots. He seems to be perfectly at home and quite happy. He is related to he very brave and of remarkable forti tude—as instances—it is related dial when Santa Anna and the other Mexican nfficeis at San Jacinto made their escape from tlie battle field—he continued rally ing to the last thirty or forty of his men? and when hejsaw that hope had fled, he folded his arm's and received the deliber ate but erring fire of his enemies till Gen. Hogston rescued him. Again report says that when shackles were applied Uj him and Santa Anna, soon after their cap ture, that the latter complained and asked them to shoot him, while the former smil- ingly said “that philosophers were sometime» obliged to submit to such things. 1 ANTI-CATTLK UHOKER. Our worthy friend, Pain Wingate,'has left in! our office an instrument with the above title'.- It is what is v ilgarly called a tarred rope, and we shonld call it a very useful nnd efficient ftt- striinv-nt. There should he one in every neigh borhood, for it is a fact that cattle are (table to got choked, the world over, nnd being choked ought to be relieved by ihe aid of man.
