Sillan Muhin owl. Hi* Majesty npponr* to ho
‘about till/ yean of ago—hi* poranti is stately,
with a muscular. tirn *«*t formation; hi* oyc is
full of tiro, hi* lip*hittray firniiift**; tho prevail*
iug otprn-wiou of hi* countenance i* indientivo
of care, fortiludu and energy. Ilisdresslmd no
spare fold*, or Mparkluig tinsel. He woro a
etiuixon cap without visor. lilted close to tliu
head, and with o low crown x'irtiioimtcd hy a
crown work of purple silk. Iliseoitt was a hlue
round-about, with u narrow upright collar, und
buttoned close np to tliu chill. Hi* trowsers
were of the Hatno color, cut alter our
fashion; with straps running under n square!
toed and heavily spurred boot. Hi* sword,
which hung gracefully nt hi* side, was conceal*
ad in n gold suubhard, having a hilt and hell bla
zing with diamond*. His liorso was nil Arabian
barb, and most richly capariiinued; the headstall
of tho bridle was Ntituded wph jewels,, und the
stirrups of tho embroidered saddle were of mas*
sivo gold, and a more splendid horseman than
•his majesty tints mounted, I havo never seen.
IVaman. A female is over impatient of the
careful and anxious advances through which
perfection is attained* Her imagination mounts
at once to the summit of excellence, while slowly
ascending improvement labors up the steo alette.
Her lovo and hntred reach suddenly Uteir eleva
tion; and will osquickly descend, unless sustain
ed there by sympathy or opposition. Her uiVec-
lion, if unreciprocated, will ere lon^chaugo its
uatnro or strangle itself: her anger, if unresisted,
will soon weave its own shroud, and ho itself
chior mourner nt the hearse. On the whole,
thoiigh.sha isfpiito an agreeable npeudnge to so
ciety; I should reluctantly vote to disponso en
tirely wilh her kindly oilier*. And sometimes
I think, if a docroo of banishment woro to he
passed against her. I should, through some by
path or other, find m# way lo the place of her
exile. Fur who wuuld remain in aj’ardou from
which the flowers havo departed; or in a grove
which the birds had forsaken, or beneath a sky
without one star to smile through its liluo depths!
No, let cynics prate ntid prattle as they may; our
existence hero, without Rio presence of the other
sox, would he only a dark and cheerless void.
Tho light, the smiles, und affection* of w'omnn,
are (he bow of beauty and promise that spuus
his cradle ‘ ’
had been darkly ovorcsst) ib*t some trips fond-
ly cherished had been broken; or that sows
memory clung to her heart, still pointing to ono
that had passed beyond tho roach ofher sympo-
thY, ittd a petcention ofher grief. 1 Yet there it
a tone or cheer fulness in her conversation, a ploy-
fulness in her fancy, that lead*you at time* half
todonbt if tliero bo any permanent weight upon
tho delicate, wing* of her spirit. Ill spooking,
shobecoineslnstnntlr animated; herjoye dilate*,

mired, overy look and totio is Aillof soul; when
suddenly us if same thought, to which you nro u
stringer, had swept through her breast. she ap
pears to struggle between u current of emotion*
wholly now, and those to whichsho had partially
given utterance. And yet, tho blushing delica
cy with which she escapes IVoin this momentary
embsrassmenl, touches you more than tho must

SATURDAY EVENING, Juno 11,1KW.
tho life of man, from hi* cradle to his grave.
Hydriot Ladies. Tho costiuno of the Hydriot
ladies would not exactly suit thetaato ofouriuoro
fsuhionablo lair oner. It consists of n green silk
petticoat, very deeply plaited, and falling not so
low ns to embarrass tho light foot, or wholly con
ceal tho well-turned ankle. This is met nt tho
lowest and narrowest point of tho waist by a
spencer of tho iamb matoriul, but of a dark chcs-
nut huo, richly embroidered in front and fasten
ed witc double rows of pearl buttons lip to tho
breast, whore it roll* open toward* each shoulder
with a full and graceful curve, leaving tho while
clastic muslin of the chomirette to conceal the
. swelling outline of tho bosom. The hair always
blnck and of glossy length, is rolled round the
. head, and tastefully interlaced with the folds of a
jowellod turban.
There aro no stays in this dress, no stiffening*,
no nupnlcmnnu or invasions, even at the bosom
upon tne endowments mid positions of nature,
yot one of our laced ladies, who** heart nover
boats, oxcoptagainst a barrier of steel, should
predict, that if put into this dress, she wjiild in
evitably fa!! to pieces. I w;«a she would tn«lr«

Sabbath nt Sen. Another Sabbath had dawn
ed, bringing with it, not only n bright iky, a
temporary quietude, but un opportunity or more
publicly confessing our indebtedness to that great
and good Being who*e mercy I* over all his
works.—The men. cleanly apparelled, woro
called to ll;a quarter deck ofthe ship; this hand
plnycd Old Hundred, with ull its sacred and en
dearing association*; prayers were offered, a
pot lion of the Scriptures rend, nnd n short dis
course delivered by tho chaplain. Whatever
tnay be said of the manner in which these servi
ces of the Sabbath were performed, they woro
ever listened to with a serious, attentive disposi
tion; no officer’manifesting a spirit ofimpatiouce,
or absenting himself under any assumed excuses
oiiJ Capt. Read, the commander of (ho ship, ev
er atfordiug, iii his own presenco, the best evi
dence of llio fight in whicb ho viowed these ser
vices. And iffon these occasions, tho tono of
moral ntid religion* sentiment was strengthened,
bad habits checked, and good resolutions forti
fied, thoobjects ofthe chaplain were not wholly
lost. Could those who ure prone, to regard a*
futile all efforts to improve the mural condition
of seamen ha present at sonto of our services,
they would ut least discover a degree of atten
tion, and a solemnity of manner, tlint would not
disparage the most devout assemblage of the
sanctuary.
They who connect tho services of a chaplain
In the navy exclusively with tho concerns that
await it* after death, who sever from his sphere
of effort all tho relations of lime, and send him
among tho shadow* of the gravo and tho dim
twilight of u futurity, do not recognize tho full
duties of hi* ufftco. Though tho soul woro to
perish with the body,yet it would bo scarcely less
important to tho country, tliut those who go
down upon tho • great water,’ and form tho links
of {communication between iis and foreign na
tion*. should be men who may recommend the
moral worth of that nation which they virtually
represent. Even tho most thorough skeptic in
religion cannot therefore disponso with those
lesson* which it ic the duty of every chaplain to
inculcate.
The Maid of Athens. Tho doopest charm of
which iRtiia, with all its beauties can boast,is in
the presence of one, poetically known to tho rou-
der us the *- Maid of Athens. Sho residos in a
little enttngo, ill the borders of tho village, with
orerything around her mildly partaking ofthe
romance sprinkled through her history. In her
person she is slightly formed, hardly reaching
the medium statute, and yet presenting all the
graces of a rich symmetry. A very small foot
-und hand, give a lightness to her attitudo and-
motions; while a deep blue eye sheds softness
over tho expressive and delicately hat unitized

Oj* Wc have received a communication from

“ Alothea”; the proper namo of tho author is
withheld from ns—consequently, according to
our general rulo, we aro constrained to refuse it
o place, oven if thovo existud no other objection.
" Alelhbtf” must have discovered that wo closed
our columns against religion* controversies, and
fully assigned our reasons. Tho two lust com
munications on that subjoct, were tho winding
up of tho writer’s pieces, at which time wnntado
our objection. Now, to comply with tho wishes
of “ Alcthes,” wo should again be opening tho
door of disenssion, which wo have turned the
key on. We ropcat the Republican has nothing
to do with religious controversies—it is a politi
cal nti.1 commercial patter; therefore, from this
understanding—at the seine time having every
respect for the writer and hi* opinions—it i*
hoped'ho will pardon us whilo we declino publish

We learn from Copt. Hunter, that the Texi-

with a baroiie, two schooner* und n steamboat,
having on buard about 300 men for the Texhri
army, under die command of Gen. Green, left

have reference to some accommodation expect

Nothing delays him from a march to Uie ene

On Wednesday last tho troops, a* many ns hud
then arrived, were collected at i'ort Inger*ol1,and
mustered iiito.iho service ofthe United States.
Gov. Hchloy was present on the occasion, and
addressed the troop*. In tho course of his re

itinclenr viow the roasonswhy this muster should

fusion that would prevail in attempting to con
duct an army upon miy other principle. Ho ex
horted them to fidelity to their country,and pour-
trayod in accurate and cloquont luiigtiago, the

On Satuiday morning Alaj. Gcu Jessup took
his departure for Tutkeegee, a town located in
tho Nation, about midway from Colmnhiis to

AUGUSTA, Juno 9.—Cotton—Since nurlnst
review we have received Liverpool udvices to
the 2d May, inclusive, which represented that
market as in a more active state titan lost noti
ced. These advice* have had very littlo effect
on our market, and tho sales during the p’ast
week havo been very limited. Tho stock on
bund at present is light, tho quantity offering lim
ited, and as so veral ofour buyers ba ve withdrawn
from tlie market, we may look for meagre re
ports ot sales for tho balunco of tho season. The
following aro the only transactions that havo
conto to our knowledge: 01 bales nt 14 cents, 31

Extracts of Utters received in Augusta, dated
••LIVERPOOL, May 7.—Above you have a
duplicate of our last, and annexed wo baud our
circular of this evening, from which you will see
that afteY a slight improvement iu Cotton about
n week ago, tne market has relapsed again into a
very dull slate, and prices about ns they were
26th tilt.; but it would be impossible lo sell to any
extent without submitting to v lower rates—the’
tho import is light and the stock of American Cot
ton is very moderate. Trada at Manchester is
not brisk, and goods und yarns ratlier lower.—
Tho supply of Surat is likely to operate much
against tuo lowest descriptions of American Cot-
“LIVERPOOL, 7th May, 1836.
“By tho last packet, sailed 1st inst., you would
loitrn that wu had a better demand for Cotton
the previous day, aud at rather higher prices,
with a more firm market. This continued on
Monday, the 2d inst., on which day 4060 a 5000

ring the depressum ofthe early part of the pre
ceding week, hut for four or hve days past the
demand has again been very languid, and this
improvement is quite lust, tne market being in
much tho same state ofdepressinn us at tho date
