lie wrote the following beautifully descriptive
paper—tee idea ot a perfect wife—which he
presented to her me morning oil the anniversity

thus: “ The character of ,” leaving her to
fill up the blanli ft isAls follows;
“ THE vVuiVTER OF. ”
“I intend to giv\jm\|ca of a woman; it it at
all answers any oriiftltdi *fch:di ;, e pleased; for
if such a person as I really ex
ists, she must be far superior to my description;
and such as I must love too well to be able to
paint as I ought.
“ J'he is handsome, but it is a beauty not aris
ing from features, from complexion, or from
shape; she has all three in au high degree, but
it is not by these s'“e touches the heart, it is all
that sweetness of temper, benevolence, inno
cence, and sensibility which a face can express,
that forms her beauty.
•‘She has a face that just raises your atten
tion at first sight—it grows on you every mo
ment, and you wonder it did no moic than raise
your attention at first.
“ Her eyes have a mild light, but they aw: i
you when she [.leases; tney command like a
good man out of office, not by authority but by
virtue.
“ Her features are not perfectly regular; that
sot t of exactness is more to be praised than to
be loved; for it is never animated.
“Her stature is not tall; she is made to be the
admiration oi every person., but the happiness of
■one.
“ She has all the firmness that doe3 not ex
clude delicacy; she has all the softness that does
not imply weakness. • *
11 1 here is often more of tho coquette shown in
On affected plainness than in a tawdry fineness;
s!:0 is always clean without preciseness oraffec
tatton. Her gravny is a gciuic uiuugtiiftitness,
that softens the features without discomposing
them; she is usually grave.
“ Her smiles are in. xpressiblc.
“Her voice is a low, s .ft music, not lormed ;
to rule in public assemblies, but to charm those
“„u can distinguish a company from a crowd;
tit has this advantage, you must come close to
her to hear it.
“To describe her body describes her mind;
one is the transcript of th. other. Her under
standing is not shown in the variety of matters
it exerts itself on, but in the goodness of the
choice she makes.
“ She does not display it so much in saying cr
doing striking tilings, as in avoiding 3uch as she
ought not to say or do.
“She discovers the right an j wrong of things
not by reasoning but sagacity; most women, and
many good ones, have a closeness and some
thing selfish in t ir dispositions; she has a true
generosity of temper; the extravagant cannot
be more unbounded in their liberality, the must
covetous not more cautions in the disposition.
Jfo person of so few years can kuow the
world better; no person was ever less corrupted
by that knowledge.
’ “ Her politeness socm3 to flow rather from a
natural disposition to oblige:, than from any rules
on that subject; and therefore never tails to
strike those who understand good breeding, and
those who do not.
“ She does not run with a girlish eagerness
into new friendships, which, as they have no j
foundation in reason, serve only to multiply and
embitter disputes; it is long before she chooses,
but then it is fixed forever, and the first hours of
romantic friendships are ni t warmer than hers
after the lapse of years.
As she never disgraces her good nature by se
vere reflections on any body, as she never de
pra is her judgment by immoderate cr ffl-placed
praises; for every thing violent is contrary to
her gentleness of disposition and ii,; evenness
of her virtue; she has a steady and firm mind,
which takes no mere from female character than
the solidity of marble does from its polish and
lustre.
“She has such virtues as make us value the
truly great of our own sex; she has all the win
ning graces that makes us love even the faults
we see in the weak and beautiful of hers.”
Female Education. —Let your first care
be to give your little girls a good physical ed
ucation. ~et their early years be passed, if
■possible, in the country, gathering flowers in the.
fields, and partaking of all the free exercises in
wkten tiiey delight. When they grow elder, do
not condemn them to sit eight listless hours a !
dav over tin ir books, their‘work, their map?,,
end their music. Bn assured hurt half the num- •
berofhours passed in r: aiLtftentionjto wellordercd 1

more agreeable companions than those com
monly are who have been most elaboratelyfin

The systems by which young ladies arc taught
to move iheir limbs according to the ruleoof art,
to conic into a room with studied diffidence, and
to atop into a carriage with measured action
calf Hiemtiffitsted grace, Oto on!y culunutcd to.
keep the degrading idea perpetually present,
that they are preparing for the great market ol
the world. Real elegance of demeanour springs
from the mind ; fashionable schools do hut
teach its imitation, whilst their rules forbid
to be ingenuous.—Philosophers never conceiv
ed the idea of so perfect a vacuum as is found
to exist in the minds of young women supposed
to have finished their education in such estab
lishments. If they marry husbands as unin
formed as themselves, they tall into habits of
insignificance without much pain ; il'tncy inor
rv persons more accomplished, they can retain
no hold of their affections. Hence many mat
rimonial miseries, in the midst of which the
wife finds‘it a-consolation, to be always com
plaining of her health and ruined ncives. In
the education ofyoung women we would say
—let them he secured from all the trappings
and manacles of such a system ; lot them par
take of every active exercise not absolutely
unfeminine, and trust to their being able to gel
into or out of a carriage with a light and grace
ful step, which no drilling can accomplish. Let
them rise early and retire early tiygst, and trust
that their beauty will not need to “coined into
artificial smiles in order to secure iSßlß'koine,
whatever room they enter. Let
walk, run, dance, in the open aii. Encourage
the merry and innocent diversions in which the
young delight : let them, under proper guidance,
explore every hill and valley let them plant aid
cultivate the garden and make hay when trie
summer sun shines, and surmount all dread of a
shower ol rain or the boisterous wind ; and,
above all, let them take no medicinw except
when the doctor orders it. The demons of
hysteric and melancholy night have over a
gruup of young ladies so brought up : but they
would not find one of them upon whom they
could exercise any power. —Foreign Quarterly
Review.
Conjugal Affection. In one of the western
departments of France, n man, of the name of
Le Fort, accused of conspiring against the re
public, was seized and committed to prison.
His wife trembling for his fate, used every
means (hat courage and affection could inspire
to restore him to liberty, but without success.
She : hen bought, with a sum of money, per
mission to pay him a single visit in his prison.
1 At the appointed hour, she appeared before her
husband, clothed in two suits of her own appar
el. With the prudence of not allowing herself,
at so critical a juncture, to give or leceive use
less demonstratoins of tenderness, she hastily
took off her upper suit of attire, prevailed upon
her husband to put them on, anil to quit the
prison, leaving her in bis place. The disguise
succeeded to her wish. Le Fort escaped, and
the stratagem was not discovered tiil the suc
ceeding day. ‘Unhappy wretch !’ cried one of
the enraged cogjrnittee, ‘what have you done'!’
duty,’ £he replied, ‘do thine.’
Major Jack Downing says that after the
President received the degree of Doctor of I
Laws at Harvard University, some of them
‘slick looking fellows, offered to give him (Maj
Jack) a degree; while the Piesident was drink
ing a mug of cider with Air. Quincy, took him
| into a little room and wrote some tatting upon a
sheet of Pasteboard, just like the General’s,
and they set down and signed their names to it;
they told him it was a degree of A. S. S.
which stood for Anazein Smart Skoler. The
Major says that the koliuge tellers when they
gave the Gineral his pasteboard, jabbered away
like all nature, in a gibberish worse than Black
Hawk,s, but the old Gineral never let on, and
nodded his heed, as if he understood every word
of it.

Greece —A recent let.er ftom a friend in
Atnens, says—‘AA'care deligiitcg with all.we have
seen of the new government. They are giving
tho people as much liberty as they are capable
of using to advantage. Yen may well suorfose
that we feel as if wo-.had lived through nfflark
and stormy night, and had begun to spyT the
morning rays. In the division ofthe kingdom,
and the mode of government of each piovinee,
district, and commonality, there is sufficient lat
! itude for the action ofthe people. The king
i appoints each of the-ten governors, or rather
prefect- .u* the people elect their councils.
The i .a,. ,iiit3 each of the forty two sub
prelects, out tiie people elect the councils ot
each. The people also elect the magistrates
ol each municipality.(or tho mayor of each
arcndissement.jand also the municipal council.
This is a little more liberty than we have in the
United States, I think.”
Reports (so well authenticated, that there
seems to be no room for doubt,) have reached
this place, that it is the intention ofthe govern
ment, to remove all the white settlers from the
(.reek Lands, and that a sufficient force had
been sept on for that purpose. Jt will be seen
that a meeting has been held in tins place, in
anticipation ol such a piocoe 2, with the view
of giving expression to public sentiment upon
that subject. We wore happy to perceive that
the meeting was composed ot citizens generally,
without any reference to party distinctions—
The best possible spirit prevailed, and we have
every assurance, whenever thegovcinmc.it shall
venture upon any course of proceeding, so di
rectly in contravention of the rights of our citi
zens and the laws and sovereignly ot our
State, that every man “ will do his duty.” We
torbear to make any other continents at this
time, further tlian to remark, that the President
ip his estimate of the spirit and intelligence of
the freemen of Alabama, must do them great
injustice, if he supposes lbr a moment, that they
could under any possible stale of things submit
to a measure, so lawless and tyrannical in its
character, as this would by We would net be,

We understand that the Messers. Harpers,
of NcwYork, have in course of preparation for
the press, a work said to be of standard moiit,
entitled Essays on the principles of Morality,
and on the Private and Political Rights and
Obligation of Mankind—by Jonathan dy
mond; from the second London edition. It is
an elaborate treaties on the true’ principles of
ethical and political philosophy, in which the
author successfully combats many of the leading
positions of Paley, and discarding the doctrine
of expediency, founds the great system ofmor
al duties directly upon the Will of God. The
work will be edited by a gentleman favorably
known to the reading public, and occupying an
official station in one of the prminent literary in
stitutions in that city.

Gold !—Gold ! — Anecdotes. Neither
avarice nor curiosity has ever tempted me to
search my own lands for gold ; nml T hnvc not
had leisure to visit any one of the tniues that
have been discovered. All my information
concerning them is mere hearsay, and derived
from those who have visited them from motives
of curiosity or interest. From what lean learn,
there are but lew rich, and likely to yield large
porfits. On the waters of Contrary Creek, a
branch of North Anna River, which divides this
county from Spnttsylvany, there are two gold
mines, which ate consiilered very valuable.
One of them is owned by the Rev. Mr Tinder,
a worthy minister of the Baptist Church, and
the other by Mr. AYilliam AA'alton, an exempla
ry old man, who has hitherto maintained a very
large family, by the labor'of his own hands, at
his anvtil. From Mr. Tinder,s mine, (where “
surface gold” alone lias been sought for,) nearly
S3OO have been obtained at a single washing.
The extraordinary drought, which has prevailed
there for nearly two months past, has put a
temporary stop to their washings.
Mr. Walton’s mine is said to be uncommonly
rich, ano promises to supply great quantities of
the precious metal. Mr. AV. is so upright,
straight forward and correct, and u ithal so be
nevolent, that all who know him, either person
ally or by i-naraotei, appear to rejoice at his for
tune. When asked by an acquaintance wheth
er such a large and sudden addition to his for
tune would not spoil him ? He promptly answer
ed, “No ; I have no fears for myself; all my ap
prehensions are for my children. Wealth may
corrupt and nmk block beards of them ; but I
am too old to be changed by it.” The follow
ing anecdote is so charactetistic of Mr. AA’alton,
that I cannot refrain from recording it. Just
at the rnument when the minors had ascertained,
beyonu all doubt, that the ore from his land was
richer than any they had ever seen, [ki single
ramp ! ■ ball size having been prononuecd “to
■ • ortn sht>,] Mr. Walton, who was a specta
tor of their operations, suduenly exclaimed, “I
must leave you ; I have promised to point a
plough-hos for neighbor A, and i cannot 1 think
of disappointing him.” So off he accordingly
wont, anti putted the plough hoe.—[Rich

■*. Melancholy Accident. On Thursday, be
tween one end two o’clock P. M. Mrs. New
ton, living at 226 Grand Street, New York,
having occasion to leave her sitting room, left
her two infant twins, 15 months old, on a straw
pillow near the fire, and locked the door. Soon
after, the inmates of another part of the house
heard the cries of the infants and saw smoke
issuing from the room. After knocking for
admission they burst the door open, when the
found the pillow on fire and the children so
much burnt that they died in the afternoon.—

Curious. The Charleston Courier says,
the bottom part of a broken glass bottle, very
pointed and jagged, taken from the stomach of
an alligator, has-been exhibited to the Editor.
The points and edges of.the glass vere worn
quite smooth, whikrthe polish of the outer sur
face had entirely disappeared. Whether this
result was ‘brought aboni by the mechanical
action of friction merelyWor by that and the
operation of the gastric juice conjointly, may
admit of question.
The CharlestorrCourier oftHV2lth says, the.
inhabitants of that cTW have been\gihly favored
the past summer, in inspect to the dmoyment of
health. AVe have cxpetienced none iMJthedeso
lating effects of disease has afflicted, at
intervals, many of our sister cities, and we can
safelv say, that Charleston is, and has been for
several years past, one of the most, if not the
most healthy city in the Union. The Board of
Health report the death of only six individuals
during the past week — three of whom were un
der 5 years of age, and only two were white per
sons.
The Flying Dutchman. —Capt. Owen’s nar-’
ativu has the following allusion to this super
stition.
’’For many years (says Capt. Owen) the
Fly ing Dutchman has been a popular supersti
tion and source ofterror to the mariners.* Few
have often passed the Cape but can tell their
tale of what they saw, or what others hove told
them of this mischievous phantom ship. Old
seamen still while away the tedious night watch
in repeating to their young and marvel-looking
cotpnules, slopes of (his water sprite; and many
a stout heart has quailed, as with anxious cars
they have listened to the freaks of this airy
terror. The following circumstance happened |
to us during this voyage, which called forth
many an almost forgotten record of the ‘Flying
Dutchman.’ In the evening of the 6th of April,
when off Port Danger, the Baracouta was seen
about two miles to leeward: struck with tho
singularity of her being so soon after us, we ai
first concluded that it could not be she; but the
peculiarity of her rigging and other circumstan
ces, convinced us that we were not mistaken;
nay so distinctly was she seen, that many well
known fnccs could be observed on deck, look
ing towards our ship. After keeping thus for
some time, we became surprised that she made
no eflbrt to join us, but, on the contrary, stood
away. But being so near the port to which we
were both destined, Capt. Owen did not attach
much importance to this proceeding, and we ac
cordingly continued our course. At sunset it
was observed that she hove to, and sent a boat
away, nppcarently for the purpose of picking up
a man overboard. During the night we could
not perceive any light or other indication of her
locality. The next morning we anchored in
Simon,s Bay’ where, fora whole week, we were
in anxious expectation of her arrival; but it
afterwards appeared that at this very period the
Baracouta must have been above three hun
dred i miles from us, and no other vessel of the
same class was ever seen about the Cape. This
is not told in order to authenticate the stories us
fear or fancy, or to add to the visionary terrors
of superstition; hut it is recorded as a strange
and at present unaccountable fact, doubtless
attributable to natural and probably simple cau
ses. Time or accident may solve th- m, but
until then, the imagination of those who delight
in unaccountable things will picture the phan
tom ship as an apparition of dreadful and
supernatural mystery.
An Irishman named Livingstone, a soldier of
AA arren’s Brigade, was suddenly stopped by a
partA during a dark night, a horseman,s pistol
presented to his breast, and asked to which side
he belonged. The supposition that it might oe
a British party rendered his situation extremely
critical. He replied, I think it would be more I
m the way of civility just to drop a hint which!
side you are pleased to favour. No, Testiny,
said the first speaker, declare your sentiriu n'sl
or die. Then by Jc—s I will net die with a i
lie in my mouth; Ameican to exti entity, do your
worst and bed dto you, you spalpeen.
The officer replied, we are Iriends, and I re- j
joice to meet with a man so Faithful to the cause!
of his country.
Direct From Washington. —AA’e have just
learned, by a gentleman direct from AVashing
teri ■ uv, that the present revolving administra-!
tion, has renewed the work of relbrm. We!
have barely time to say that Mr. Duane, sec
retary of the Treasury, has been removed by
the President, because he would not bow to his
royal will. Mr. Me Lane was strongly threat
ncl, blit the Icing his royal highness, was
p suaded by the rest of the Kitchen Cabinet,
to retain him. Mr. Van Curren, we learn, was
absent; aad it wag thought that no appointment
would be made in the place of Mr. Duane,
until In would be sent for. The removal of the
Bank deposits seems to have boen the ground
work of the President’s course for (ho removal
of Mr. Duane; who, with Mr. MeLaue %i
Mr. Cuss’would not consent to the removal
of the public deposites. The official
Globe) at AYashington, holds the following lan.
guago.
AVe are nuthorized to state, that the deposit
of the public money will be changed from ifc-
Bank of the United States to the State banki
as soon as necessary arrangements con bemad’
for that purpose, and that it is believed they can
be completed in Baltimore, Philadelphia, New
York and Boston, in time to make the chan* e
by the first of October, and perhaps
circumstances should render an earlier action
necessary on the part of the Government,
It is contemplated, we understand, not i 5
remove, at once, the whole of the public money
now on deposite in the Bank of the United
States, but to suffer it to remain there until it
shall be grandually withdrawn, by the usual
operations of the Government. And this p] an
is adopted in order to prevent any necessity
on the part of the Bank of the United State?’
for pressing upon the commercial community’
and to enable it to afford, jf it think prnpr, the
usual facilities to the merchants It is believed
that-by this means the change meed not p ro .
duee any inconvenience to the commercial
commrnity, and that circumstances will not
require a sudden and heavy call on the Bank of
the United States, so as to occasion embarrass,
ment to tho institution or the public.
The general znxicty which has been man.
ifested on this subject, has made it proper to
announce what is intended to be done: and we
understand that the facts and reasons, which
have lead to ibis measure, will shortly be laid
before the public.
It is believed that they will be found to bo
amply sufficient to justify the course which is
now to be taken, in relation to the public do I
posits in the Bank of theL T nited States.” I
