I, bricfl» idT-wne to " for action and influence ofthu
' wor ld'upon the old. and the eoairibuiioos of America
Europe,” Mr. WEBSTER most felicitously nonces the
..,. n ,Usluury and wholesome operations of our Coosutu-
rioo, and doses with a just, impre*i»e, and brilliant eulogy
upon the character of Washington, and .the deep and me-
li'orsting impression which it has stamped upon the charac-
, wr of civilized nations. Mr. W. said:
America has proved that it is practicable to
elevate the mass of mankind—that portion
which in Europe is called the laboring, or low
er class—to raise them to self respect, to make
them competent to act a part in the great right,
and great duty, of self government; and this
she has proved may be done by education and
the diffusion of knowledge. She holds out an
example, a thousand times more enchanting
lhan ever was presented before, to those nine-
tcnlhsof the human race who are born without
hereditary fortune or hereditary rank.
America has furnished to the world the
character of Washington! And if our Ameri
can institutions had done nothing else, that
alone would have entitled them to the, respect
ofmnnkind.
Washington! “First in war, first in peace,
and first in the hearts of his countrymen!”
Washington is all our own! The enthurias--
lie veneration and regard in which the people
of the United States hold him, prove them to
be worthy of such a counlryman; while his
reputation abroad reflects the highest honor on
his country and its institutions. 1 vyould
•cheerfully put the question to-day to the intel-
digetiee of Europe and the world, what char
acter of the century, upon the whole, stands
out in the relief of history, most pure, most! ex
pectable, most sublime; and 1 doubt not, that
by a suffrage approaching to unanimity, the
answer would be Washington!
This structure, by its uprightness its solidi
ty, its durability, is no unfit emblem of bis
character. His publ c virtues and public prin
ciples were as firm as the earth on which it
stands; his personal motives, as pure as the
serene heaven in which its summit is lost.
lint, indeed, though a fit, it is an inadequate
emblem. Towering high above the column
which our hands have builded, beheld not by
'the inhabitants of a single city or n single Slat-;
—ascends the colossal grandeur of bis charac
ter, and his life. In the constituents of the one
—in nil its titles to immortal love, admiration
and renown—it is an American production. It
is the embodiment unJ vindication of our trans-
Atlcntic liberty.
Born upon our soil—of parents also born
upon it—never fora moment having hud a sight
of the old world—instructed, ucccording to the
•modes of his time, only in the spare, plain, but
wholesome elementary knowledge which our
institutions provide for the children of the peo
ple-growing up beneath and penetrated by
the genuine influences of American society—
growing up amidst our expanding, but not luxu
rious civilization—partaking in our great des
tiny of labor, our long contest with unreclaimed
nature and uncivilized man—our agony of glo
ry, the war of independence—our great victo
ry of peace, the formation of the Union and
the establishment of the Constitution—he is all
—all our own! That crowded and glorious
life—
" Where multitude! of virtue! pasied along,
Kach pressing foremost, in the mighty throng
Contending to be seen, then making room
For greater multitudes that were to come
•that life was the life of an American citizen.
1 claim him for America. In all the porils,
in every darkened moment of the state, in the
midst of the reproaches of enemies and the mis
giving of friends—I turn to that transcettdant
name for courage, and for consolation. I o
him who denies, or doubts whether our fervid
liberty can be combined with law, with order,
with the security of property, with the pursuits
and advancemi-nt of happiness—to him who
denies that our mstitutious are capable c»f pro
ducing exult at .on of soul and the passion of
true <dory—1'> him who denies that we have
contributed any thing to the stock of great
lessons and great exumplcs—to all these I re
ply by pointing to Washington!
Tbe foregoing,extracts from Mr. W'l. speech, are from the
Report of the Boston Courier, which was prepared, the
Editor aaya, " from elaborate notes, and subsequently cor-
tected from Mr. W's. own minutes.”
At the dinner, the following interesting incidents were re
tried : The President of tbe Day, J. T. Bucki.vciham. to
illustrate the ingenuity and facility with which mechanic op
erations are now conducted in this country, said: " Tbe beef
■on the table was slaughtered on Tuesday last. The bones
.of the os, whose life had been tal-.en for patriotic purposes.
,had been transported to Norwich, and manufactured into
buttons—and • here,’ [Saturday following,] continued the
President, holding up soma beautifully polished billions,—
•'Acre <Aey are !'" Norwich is some 100 miles from Bos
ton.
George Bancroft, Esq. "after eulogizing the spirit of
Virgisia and tbe sympathy which she evinced towards
Massachusetts, while we were suffering from the early op
pressive measures of the English ministry, mentioned as an
incident not generally known, that from the remote county
-of Augusta, in Virginia, ISO miles from navigable waters,
the farmers made their way over the roughest hills and
through almost impervious roads, and dragged or rolled
along iso bbls. of flour, their gift to tbe people of Boston iu
their distress."
Mr. Quincy, in complimenting the Tee-total Washington-
isns, said, in a toast he give, that they were *• the only peo
ple who could throw cold water upon such a celebration as
this.”
Itii estimated that there were about 300,000 persona
present at the celebration, and 108 veteran* of the Revolu
tion, among the invited guest*, several of whom fought at
Lexington and Bunker Hill.
And now,Ho, fora MoM'MKST at Youktows! to cor
respond in taste, magnitude, and grandeur, with the Monu
ment ofliun'icer Iliil—ti e one, the AtrUA; the other, the
Omki.a of the Revolution. Yeung Lijifrtv was rocked
in the proud summit of the former, and grew to full and
" Urisbing maturity on the sunny plains of the latter—le
then another monumental pile arise, that the FIRST and the
Last mementoes of our glorious cause may descend togeth
er, to ati admiring and grateful posterity. The noble and
patriotic example, which, of right, Massachusetts lia3 set the
Old Dominion, in! I he followed ; for chivalry, gratiiud^
and love of country demand, that the sun ofl’reedom, which
rose in glorious splendor on Bunker Hill, should not set in
gloom and darkness, on the neglected field of Yorktown.
I.oco Foe.—u (lead Name.
The Columbus Enquirer in republisltingone of our
articles, terms us a Loco Foco. This mark of dis
tinction attached to the Democrats, is used by ad-
dle-pated Whigs ns an epithet of derision. Now,
for our part, we love it as a distinctive appellation,
most hugely. What! Loco Foco; why, it mentis
a moving light—yes, that’s its meaning—and what
can be more beautifully poetic & emphatically sig
nificant of the GeniusofDemocracy. that great mo
ving light of Tit K world!—“Let there be light,”
said God, and there teas light! “Let there be light”
exclaims Democracy, and there will be light—Vox
Populi, Vox Dei!—But to be called a Mud-ite, a
Clay-ite—faugh ! it is of the earth, earthy—of the
dirt, dirty; and like Yorick’s skull, it smells of mor
tality—pah! away with the noisome Dame.
The Influenza.
This epidemic which is raging in Boston. New
York and Pennsylvania, has reached Baltimore on
its way South. The Editors of the New York
Post say, that it is the worst epidemic of tbe kind
they have ever known, it has attacked horses and
cows. Many of those who went on to attend the
Boston celebration, came back ntllicted with the
disease, and of some hundred ofetnigrantswhoar'
rived lately in New York, not one escaped it. It
is the opinion of the best informed physicians that
the disease is atmospheric occasioned no doubt by
the frequent and sudden changes of the weather—
that have recently occutred.
Loaiaiana.
The elections for National and State Represen
tatives for this State, occurred on yesterday. The
returns will probably be received in time for our
next. Harrison’s majority in this State in 1840
was 3630. The Louisianians want a tariff oli their
sugar, and we shall not he disappointed if the Tariff
or Clay party has succeeded.
The Democratic party of G-orgia have selected a Coop
er to head them. Their presses have raised a hoop for
him, and predict, if their friends chime in. they will be able
to bang up the \V higs for one year more. The Whigs are
making every effort to elate in their calculations, but do’nt
intend to hoop till they have secured the poles.—B. C.
Chronicle.
[If the whigs don’t hoop till they secure the poles,
their eider barrel will fall to pieces. This they
are aware of, and have commenced hooping in ad
vance—with oli coon skins. We' don’t mind this
so long a3 they leave it for our Cooper to head them,
and our Stark to tap and spile them.]

MIOKT ESSAYS—No. X.
The Rose, just bloomed from the bud, impreg
nating the air with its sweet ordor, and decked in
all the beauty of new born colors, is styled the
“ Queen of Flowers,” and beauty’s emblem.
It reigns for a season the unrivalled mistress of
the botanical world, clothed in nature’s brightest
colors; and it w’ould seem, so fair a flower was
never born to die; but alas! experience has taught
us, that all must bow obedience to nature’s stern
decree. The rose presents a pleasing, though
transitory view to man's admiring eyes—throws a
sweet and delightful fragrance to the breeze—then
fades—it changes its bright colors, for the sickly
hue of decay; it dtoops, and its once fair leaves
are scattered to the ground, unnoticed and forgot
ten, leaving no memento of its former beauty, but
a withered stem. And here, vain beauty, read
your approaching doom. Those bright, alluring
charms, which a kind nature has so liberally be
stowed on you, will oue day fade; and when ad
miring throngs cease to acknowledge the potency
of your power, grieve not—but console yourself with
the reflection, that you have enjoyed your reign,
and that
*• Tbe fairest flower beneath the sky.
Though fair indeed it be,
Must shed iu beauty, fade and die—
’Tis Nature’s stern decree.’’
LUCIUS.
FOR THE MACON TELEGRArtt.
Mr. Editor:—I have noticed in last week’s
Messenger, an extract of a speech said to be deliv
ered by Daniel O’Connell, breathing throughout a
most incendiary spirit of Abolition, replete with the
most abusive epithets, and language the most ve
hement and inflammatory, against our Southern
Institutions. If O’Connell be the author—if it be
his production, he is guilty of the foulest slander,
the grossest libel; be has made a wanton, unpro
voked, and most unjust aggression upon the feel
ings, the character, and the humanity of the gener
ous sons of the South; and as an Irishman, I say,
that he justly deserves the reproach and contumely
of every citizen of the South, both native and adopt
ed. But I hope that the charge will be made
against the libeller himself, and not against the
whole nation, of which he is but an individual. I
entertain too high an opinion of my enlightened
fellow-citizens of the South, to think that this could
ever break the strong ties of attachment, which
have always existed between them and the sons or
the Green Banner, or quench those warm feelings
of friendship, which I know have always been
cherished in tbe bosom of the South, towards Ire
land and her cause—towards them, who have free
ly shed their blood in defence of American Liber
ty w ho have never proved traitors—who have
stood by the side of Washington—who have, like
heroic brothers, stuck to the Revolutionary Patriots,
until the sun of Liberty blazed in meridian splen
dor, and every red-coated Briton was driven from
their shores. No—Never will they, never can
they forget the countrv of a bleeding Montgomery.
A SON OF ERIN.
The Hon. John Jlacphrrsoa Berrien,
Preiidcnt of the late Clay Convention, Delegate to the
Rational Whig Convention infuturo. Nominee to the
Vice-Presidency of the United States, Senator to tie
United Stales Congress from the State of Georgia,
Colonel of the BUSK Regiment of Militia, and pras-
ticing Attorney at Laic, not in fact, residing in the
City of Savannah, County of Chatham, and State
aforesaid.
“ All hail, Dalliousie, tbou great God of XV ar,
Lieutenant-General to the Earl of Mar.
No Spanish Don. either before or since the days
of the renowned Cervantes, ever had such a string
of titles tacked to his patrooymick, as is here ex
hibited by the distinguished gentleman who is the
subject of this brief notice. “ Lord,” exclaimed
Aunt Bridget, after reading them, “what a long
tail our cat lias got!” And Aunt Bridget was
right, for truly it is a long tail—longer than ever
was sported by the veriest three-tailed Bashaw,
that ever smoked chiboque oi chewed opium—yea,
verily, longer than the mighty tale that compelled
Hamlet’s ghost to come from the grave, that lie
might get a chance to unfold it.'—But enough of
mils—for hereby hangs a tale, a bloody tale, the
following tale, which we summarise from the Mes-
sengerofthe 22d inst:
At the close of the Convention, “A. H. Chap
pell, Esq. of Bibb, offered a series of resolutions,
the object of which was to return the thanks of the
Convention to the President, for the able and dig
nified manner in which lie had presided over that
body—also, approving of his course, as the repre
sentative of the Slate of Georgia, in the Senate ot
the United States."
After the annunciation of this Resolution, the
Hon. gentleman made a flying leap from his seat,
and literally “rising above himself,” (i- e. turning
a somerset,) he
- —" stretch’d his hand.
Moving the air. the ocean, and the land,"
and demolished, at “one fell swoop,” his Excel
lency the Governor, a large majority of the last
Legislature, including the Committee on the State
of the Republic, and also Messrs. Colquitt, Cooper,
and Black, of whose remains, it is said, not a grease
spot can be found!!—But listen to the Messenger:
• But when the Honorable Senator approached
that part of the resolutions in which he was charged
with holding office for the emolument of office—he
AROSE ABOVE HIMSELF,* and, with the
fire of Demosthenes, IMMOLATED his accu
sers”! !!—Pip-pop, crick-crack—bang, bang, bang
—nbiz,z,z,z! Good Lord, what an explosion!—
Huzza for tbe Fantastics!
O, if the Honorable Senator had only possessed
but a modicum of this Demosthenian fite during
the last War, what a havoc would he have made
among the red-coats!—aye, he would have Crock-
ettized and Jacksonized them, too, with a ven
geance. But, alas, the Hon. Senator was then no
politician—he was merely a Black Cockade philos
opher ; and, like the classical Apothecary, lie veil
ed his greatness from the glare of public observa
tion, and advanced by retrograde movements, into
opium come digitalis, where he remained until the
close of the glorious contest, edifying himself and
the rising generation, by splendid experiments in
divine Alchemy, through which he developed the
hidden mystery of extracting sun-beams from cu
cumbers ! BOZ.
* Or, in other words, he turned a somersets fact which
the Hon. Senator performs with consummate dexterity and
inimitable grace. Indeed, it is said, in a trial of skill with
the truly flexible and elastic Admiral Cosby, he vaulted of.
tener, turned quicker, and flew higher, than even the naugh-
tjr-cal hero himself. "For Heaven’s sake, Mac, don’t do
that again," cried Cosby—" for, if you do, you will soon be
invisible; sad, out of sight oat of mind.you know, tny boy."
A Valuable Bustle —It is said that when treasurer
Graves sloped, in female attire, in order to be fashionable,
he had a bustle made of United States Treasury notes and
gtate 8cri|
stole out ol
Dean Swift proposed to tax female beauty and leave ev

Botanico-ITIedicnl Instruction.
T HE undersigned, aware of the many difficulties under
which students of Botanic Medicine tabor, in regard
to clinical instruction, and being desirous of advancing, as
far as may be the standard pf true Medical Science, by ai-
fording every facility to enable those who enquire after it,
to trace it. has deemed it proper, (considering the facilities
for sach instruction in liis possession.) to devote a part of
his time expressly to advance the object in view, by direct
ing the researches of the student, in the various branches of
the healing art, both theoretically and practically, in the stu
dy and by the bedside of the patient; teaching him not only
the use of Medicines, but also, the ti ue pharmaceutical/node
of preparing and compounding them, on correct chemical
principles: thus preparing him to begin his collegiate career
understandingiy; and, with proper attention, enabling him
to prosecute it to graduation, with honor to himself and the
institution with which he may be connected.
As n student is, by law, required to study twelve months
C revious to entering college, those wishing to do so, can
ave the advantage of the above facilities, that length of
time, for FIFTY DOLLARS. Those, however, who
wish to be farther initiated into the practical merits of the
German and Indian Practices, will be charged ONE
HUNDRED DOLLARS extra.
o* Letters addressed to the subscriber, on this subject,
post paid, will receive immediate attention.
