which it contained. ! At tie spot where the hea-

which appeared to bare served in ornamenting
some handkerchief, cow destroyed by time, or
belonging to a bund aroaud the heal. In- the
i Imperial library at Paris may be seen seven
baudaaux, with: leaves worked ia cold, whic!
were fyund in tomb at Atheus, and similar oilo
were found at Kerten, in excavation m ule ly

baisett of euU of the shape of au eajzle. The

There was also uuud a small glass, whkh bad
probably been suspended round the neck by way
of amulet. . 1
At the part where the waist of the body might
bare been, I found a small bronze buckle, winch
bad evidently ornamented a leather belt. There
' u also found a small gokl chaia, comp-Kl of
eight or ten round links, a small k.mU, a bu; k
glas bead, i pair of small scissors in a leather
sheath, cut out in a 'pattern on one xide similar
to a Roman saudaL an iron key. and a iutlie
piece of iron cmething of the shape of a key.

been placed on a kind of glass globe inclined in

At a foroial meeting of the Democratic Mem
bers of the Uouse, on tbe Saturday evening before
Caigress assembled, and in view. of the knowu
I ivcrsity of political parties in the Il Hise and
the predicted difficulty of choosing. a Speaker,
mey ad .p'ed the following resolution ;
lietjlcedr That the Democratic members of the
House of Representatives, though in a temporary
minority io tnis body, deem this a fit occasion to
tender to their fellow-citizens of the whole Union
their heartfelt congratulati ns; on the triumph,
in the rent elections in several of the Northern,
Laxtern. arid ii.tern, as well as Southern Slates,
of the principles of tlie Kam-wt . Nebraska bill,
aud the doctrines of civil and relLnous liberty
which have been so violently assailed by a seer t
.political order known as the Know-Nothing
party ; and, though in a minority, we bold it to
oe our highest duty to preserve our organisation
aud continue oar efforts in the maintenance and
defence of thre principles and the constitutional
niriits ol every section and every class of citi
zens, agaiust their opponents of every descrip
tion, Wuether the so-called JiepubUcans, Know-
Ao&Wa9, or FiuionuU : and to this end we look
with coufivleuce to the support and approbation
of all good and true men friends of the Consti
tution and tlie Union throughout the country.
1 iis.il'haut resolution was followed by the
nomination, as the candidate of the party for
Speaker, of a gentleman who was distinguished
as the champion aud leader in carrying the Kim
ns Nebraska bill through the House in 1'854,
and whose elevation now to the Speakership was
doult!a designed to be held up to the country
as an endorsement of that great measure of Dem
ocratic policy. . It is not our purpose to find fault
with tins u.Mtunation on personal ' grounds, al-
Hhouh.were we members of the Uouse,we would,
tor the reasou above alluded to, have preferred
uniting ou aim-kit any other member of the party.
t is not tiie ornanal nomination to which we
object ; but it is that at subsequent meetings that

of the pni-ty. T.iey would not choose between

By this simple analvsis of the appropriation
bills for the four years mentioned, it will be
seen that the expenses of the Departments
have increased from $ 1,276,845 00 to $ 2,
015,48? 90, or , that they, under Gen. Pierce's
administration, ; cost the goverment $ 748,
642 90 more than they did during the last year
of Mr. Fillmore's administration. The Treasu
ry Department, during the last year of Mr.
Fillmore' administration, cost $386,334 00; du
ring the present fiscal year, notwithstanding the
reputation of Guthrie for economy, it will cost
$720,258 00, nearly double, exclusive of defi
ciencies which are now asked fr.ra the present
Congress. The expenses of, the Interior are also
nearly double, cut to proceed with this analy

during the present year, $40,829,009 15, exclu

navy, and mail service, under President Pier-e,
exceed the expenses during the last year 'of Mr.

It will be readily perceived that tli expenses
of the General Government have regularly in
creased from the time of ' General Pierce's inau

ciety together is the law of Charity; . Very few
who profess to live by it, know even, the meaning
ot the Word. Ihey limit it, in most cases, to the
giving of alms and the relief of physisal sunenng.
How contracted and inadequate the definition!
Charity, instead of being limited to alms-giviug,
may permeate every thought and action of our
lives, and color the c6mplexiou of all our conduct.
Let its see how much this virtue is neglected.
When a neighbor's name becomes the subject of
conversation, and his conduct the topio of remark,
is it ' Charity, tliink you which prompts you
would be Christian to repeat the rumor of de
traction, to indulge in the sneer of ridicule or the
malicious inuendo which stabs a reputation more
fatally than the most circumstantial accusation 7
What is it that so often kindles strife, and lights
the fires of revenge, and utterly ' destroy those
"small, sweet charities'' that 'Tender life a pleas
ure, arid whose absence makes the world a cheer
less and arid desert?' Is it that Charity that
"suffereth long and is kind, and that ;thmketh
no evil' or rather, is it pot an emanation of that
unhallowed disposition which is the offspring of
hatred, of selfishness, and guilt? The slanderer
is almost invariably guilty of the crime he would
fix upon others. Conscious' of his baseness and
degradation, he is anxious to drag all others down
to his own level, and exult in their degradation.
iu order rhat he himself may escape the condem
nation of society. ; ' . ' !
" Charity thinketh no evil." Ah, : what an
Eden bur world would be, if this were the all
prevailing law ot life, ifl instead of ransacking
every nook and cranny ta collect food for zossip
and recrimination, we should spread the mantle
of Charity over our neighbor's faults, and, over
looking bis errors, should delight to expatiate
npon his merits and bis virtues only ! Charity is
not only manifested in outward acts, but should
be a regulating principle of the mind. It not on
ly does no evil ii thinketh none. : It knows no
Jimit. Wherever, over this sorrowing earth, we
meet a human being, Charity embraces " him in
her friendly arms and calls him "brother." It
supports the weak and forlorn pilgrim, as he
marches on mournfully to his grave. It minis
ters to the mind diseased! and Buppliea the de
mands of poverty and want. It is the principle
which pervades the veryjessence of the Deity,
and vhich is unceasingly? exercised by the Al
mighty towards all his creatures ; for the' Bible
assures us, and our own observation corroborates
the statement, that God's mercy in over all his
works. Let us cultivate this godlike virtue, and

f PREACHING THE GOSPEL.
--Dr. Sprague tells the following anecdote of an
evangelical clergymen, of the English Church
liuiiieil Joi.es. lne storv was civen him hv tho
ukv, uerge linrder.
i Mr. Jones had a college classmate, who enter
el tne miiustry at the same time with himselt,
tut was a lucre man of the world, and knew lit-
X.i and caretl nothing of the true gospel. This
niaii, con versing one day with Mr. Jones, said to
nun, nan jocosely, halt seriously : (
Why is it that you are so popular as a Dreach

knows that at the University I was considered

following article and extract in the . Mobile Ad
vertiser : i
Russia a Check on England. In the " Corres
pondence of Henry Clay," recently published, is
a letter from James Madison to Mr. Clay, under
the date of October 30, 1815, which shows that,
before there was any apprehension of an Anglo
Ilussian war, or any expectation of an Anglo-
t rencu " otlensive and delehsive alliance, it was
the opinion of some of our leading statesmen
that a good understanding should be cultivated
with the Czar, as a check upon England. Mr.
Madison says: ; '
" Since the overthrow of France, Russia has
acquired the highest degree of political impor
tance in relation to these States. As a great
power, friendly to a liberal system of neutral
rights, and with who-e dominion our commerce
had become considerable, she held, before that
event, a distinguished rank, but by it her weight
iu the general scale has been much augmented.
Russia forms, in effect, at this tune, the principal
check on the overgrown power, of England, on
which account, and many others, it is immensely

ic in it rest, 01 inese oiauas Kcuiuvae a gxxi un
derstanding with her sovereign."
This is a mistake, as the editor of the Adver
tiser has, no doubt, discovered before this. The
letter, from which the above extract was made,
was written by Mr. Monroe, and is th first in
the second chapter of Col ton's book, page 49.
It is a matter of small moment, however,
which of the two statesmen uttered he opinion.
It was very generally entertained at the time :
but the relative position of all parties has chan
ged so completely in the last forty years, that it'
is no criterion for the statesman of .the present;
day. We are no longer so weak as to need any

whenever it interfere with our just rights. Bus-j
sia bas grown immeasurably in strength and re-r
sourcesand hss pursued her conquering policy:
with a steadiness that threatened to overwhelm
continental Europe. Alexander I. was "Czar at
the time Mr. Monroe "vrote, and he was suppo
Ked to 1 imbued with liberal idea. Nicholas
overthrew all the improvements he had made
or projected, and turned the clock of civilization
back at least three centuries. Had Mr. Monroe
lived in these days, we think he would not. hav
been the man to countenance any sort of alliance
with that blasting despotism. ' 1

Reader ! Do you, when you retire to rest on a
luxurious bed, the warm fire blazing on the
hearth; the carpeted floor, the richly curtained
windows and all the appliances of wealth, think
of the poor and destitute ? If not, your heart is
not tu the right place When you offer up t
God your evening sacrifice of prayer and thanksi-
giving, and ask protection from the dangers of
the night, do you feel the wish and desire steal
over you that all living souls had like -shelter
and comfort as yourself? If you do not,' be' re
assured your heart is not ia the right place! ; If
the storm which rages without awake you not to
thoughts such as these, jbe assured rour mind baa
been misdirected the pursuits of pleasure, -or f
g m. or Dotn, nave maae you unmindful of the
greatest, of christian graces, charity ; and your
heart is not m the right place these reflections
are suggested by th storms of the past week:,'
and a knowledge of the fact that in our midst
there are nany whose condition mar be treatlv
improved by well directed efforts on the part of
those who have the means. I do not mean to
r- commend the mere bestowment of alms to the
newly; it may allay suffering, and for an hour or
a day it will not, it cannot do more; but I do
mean to say, tnat by seeking out the needy and
as far as possible giving them employment suited
to their Capacities and conditions, much mav b4
done to improve, their condition. It benefits and
relieves, while it does not degrade it bles-tes him
who gives, and bim who receives. This is true
charity. Then go to all who have the means';
good will come of it. If not. the effort will after
a while get your heart in the right place. : j
