In the * ante of the 7My end lads
visible Trinity .
Their Majesties, the Emperor
of Austria, the King of Prussia,
and the Emperor of Russia, in
consequeftce of the great events
‘which have distinguished, in Eu-,
tope, the course of the three last j
years, and especially of the bles-j
sings which it has pleased Di- j
vine Providence to shed upcn|
’those states whose governments
have placed their confidence and
then hope in it alone, having ac
quired the thorough conviction,
that it is necessary for ensuring
their continuance, thatthe several
powers, intheir mutual relations,
adopt the sublime truths which*
are pointed out to us by the eter
rial religion of the Savior God; ,
Declare solemnly, that the
present act has no other object
than to show in the face of theu
tiiverse their unwavering deter-,
ruination to adopt for the only
rule of their conduct, both in the
administration of their respective
states, and in their political rela
tions with every other govern
snent, the precepts of their holy
religion, the precepts of justice,
of charity and of peace, which,
far from being solely applicable
to private life, ought, on the con
trary, directly to influence the re
solutions of princes, and to guide
all their undertakings, as being
the only means of giving stability
to human institutions, and of re
medying their imperfections.
Their Majesties have there
fore agreed to the folio wing arti
cles :
Akr. 1. in conformity with
She words of the Holy Scriptures,
Which command all men to re
gard one another as brethren, the
three contracting monarch s will
remain united by the bonds of a
true and indissoluble fraternity,
and considering each other as
compatriots, they will lend one
another on every occasion, and
in every place, assistance, aid, h
support; and regarding their sub
jects and armies, as the fathers
of their families, they will govern
them in the spirit of fraternity
with which they are animated, for
the protection of religion, peace h
justice
Art. n. Therefore the only
/
governing principle betweeen the
above mentioned governments Ik
their subjects, shall be that of
rendering reciprocal services ; ol
testifying by an unalterable benef
icence the mutual affection with
which they ought to be animated;
©f considering all as only the
members ot one Christian nation
the three allied princes looking
upon themselves as delegated b)
Providence to govern three bran
ches of the same family ; to wit:
Austria, Prussia, and Russia ;
confessing Ukewise.that the chris
tian nation of which they an
their people form a part, have re
ally no other sovereign than hin
So whom alone power belongs ol
right, Because m him alone arf*
found all the treasures of love, ol
science and of wisdom; that is tcv
Say, God, our divine Savior Jesus : -
ChrisVthe word of the MostHigh,
the word of life. Their Majes-,
ties therefore recommend, With
the most tender solicitude to their
people, as the only means of en
joying that peace which springs
from a good conscience Sc which
alone is durable, to fortify them-
I selyes every day more and more
in the principles and exercise of
the duties which the divine Sa
ylor has pointed out to us.
| Art. hi. All powers which
wish solemnly to profess the sa
cred principles which have dicta
ted this act, and Who shall ac
knowledge how important it is to
the happiness of nations, too long
disturbed, that these truths shall
henceforth exercise upon human
destinies, all the influence which
belongs to them, shall be received
with as inuch readiness as affec
tion, into this holy alliance.

The narrow and tyrannnical
policy of the French government,
has gradually banished the most
useful and illustrious men from
Fr ince.—Soult, whom Buona-!
parts pronounced the tactician
of the age, “has received an invi
tation to enter the Russian serv
ice. Every man of military, polit
ical and scientific eminence, has
been pressed by the Emperor A
lexander to settle in his empire.
America, however, has been
prefered by LAcepede the natur
alist, and Chaptall the chimist;
they have declined the invitation
of the Emperor, arid are preparing
to settle in the United States,

The London ’’TimesT speak
ing of American Finance, thinks
the establishment of a National
Bank, would be attended with
“beneficial effects” to this coun
try. After paying some high
and, We doubt not, deserved com
pliments to the abilities of Alex
ander Hamilton,,it concludes With
observing “Whenever a National
Bank is established in the United
States, it will be a proud tribute
to >he memory of a statesman
whose value was not fully appre
ciated by his countrymen, until
they had to deplore his loss.”

Elastic Marble of Massachusetts .
Some time ago, Dr. Mitchell
‘xhibitted to the New York Phi-
Society a specimen of
vmerican Elastic Marble, mea
uring four feet in length, three
iches in breadth, and one inch
n tnickness. The slab was of a
nowy whiteness, of a grained
tructure* and of a remarkable
flexibility, %Te bad received V
)f Messrs. Norris & Kain, wbc.
got it from the quarry irt Pittsfield
Massachusetts. Since the receipt
of this extraordinary sample,
another one, of a fair more consid*
able size, has been procured b>
Mr. Meyher, from Stockbridge.
This he is preparing for a'place
in Dr. Mitchel’s cabinet of Miner
alogy. The dimensions of this
stone are as follow: breadth one
foot and ten inches, length five
feet, and thickness two inches ;
making a mass of two thousand
six hundred and forty cubic inch
es of elastic marble.
This slab when shaken undul
ates sensibly backwards and for
wards; when suppored at the two
extremeties the middle forms a
curve of about two inches from a
horizontal line ; and when turned*
over recovers itself, and inclines
as much the other way. It has
many other curious properties.
The substance under considera
tion has been a 1 ready described
by Mr. Meade, in a memoir prim
ed in the American Miner
al Journal; and New York prob
ably now contains the largest
piece that the world can pro
duce.

An “Etymologist” thinks “it
ridiculous to call Reticles (the la
dies’ little pocket bags) Ridicules ”
—We doubt the etymology. A
u reticle is a little net—and we
think, that since the good old cus
tom of wearing pockets among
the ladies has been exploded, the
term of Ridicule applied to the
pockets they carry in their hands
is quite appropriate.

The Lord of a village being at
dinner, allowed one of his tenants
to stand while he conversed with
him. “ What news, my friend ?’*
said the squire. ‘ None that 1
know of,” replied the farmer, “ ex
cept a sow of mine pigged thir
teen pigs, and she has only twelve
teats.”—“What will thethirteenth
do?” asked the Lord. “As I
do,” returned bodge, it will lock
on while the others eat.”
