But al lowing that I mayliave gone xub farcin
supposing tbat1 the sludy cif tbe Grammar,
would Jjrjiie ddvice.of Judge NL be Aban
doned "entFrely as wholly, useless, yet I
nay. a"sk? where nbaU attention to itteai?e r
.Wlvere shlVbe theTboands r When can
if hft said that we have become so intimale-
lv: a cii uai n ted 'with it that we can relish
the'beauties of any author . It seems that
too mach attention is paid to Grammar, at
thepresent time,both in our primary schools'
& in our Colleges, it wmild be a source of
great satisfaction to ascertain at what
point the study of it should end ? Uut is
this possible? Can we point out any thing
short of making our.-elves masters- of .the
Granimar, which will enable us to read
the ancient classics with true pleasure am!
profit ? Thousands' of idiomatical phrases
and, colloquial' sentences are to be touni,
jn almost everr uthon especially in the
dramatic writers, the force and beauty of
whichitwould be impossible to feel abso.ute-
Tt is said, bv one of our greatest Greek
scholars, that " he, who denies the useful
ness and propriety of a close attention to
the Greek accents, most either know no
thing of the language, pr must be a fool. "
Yet I am afraid Judge Murphey would
say, that u the students mind would be in
jtired by such frivolous investigations.'
But it is not to the examination of Greek
accents that he has applied the term " fri
volous," it is to something of more vital
importance. ! It is applied to all attempts
to thoroughly investigate those Languages
in which are found vast stores of Learn
ing and rich sources of-intellectual im
provement. Or does he really suppose
that the writings of Aristotle, of Plato,
of Demosthenes, and of Aristophanes, of
Cicero, of Vinril, and of Horace, can be
perused by any person, with a due sense
of their beauties, who possesses but a slight
acquaintance with the Greek and Latin
Grammars P If Jie can perform thai task,
l will venture to say, that no person, ex
cent himself, cau eVctuate it. There.
seems to be absui'dity stamped upon the
very fsce of such a supposition.
Ought it then to be said, that too much
attention is paid to syntax in our preparato
ry schools? Should we not rafter supposethat
a system, opposite in its nature, ought to
be arced as the defect which exerts such
a malign influence upon some young men
through the whole course of their education ?
Is it surprisingthat persons, the foundation
of whose Classical Kducation has been so
weakly laid, that, in reading, they are con
tinually confoundiug the nominative case
with the accusative, the accusative with
the nominative, the pronoun with the verb,
and the adjective with the substantive,
(for I have been witness to such occur
rences)h6uld have to struggle throughout
their whole course with almost insuperable
difficulties ? Yet persons thus prepared
are qualified to " study the Classics to
the deveJopement of their faculties and
the improvement of their taste." The
Judge says, that 44 Massachusetts has ta
ken the lead in -correcting the evils of the
present system.lP2-Does he mean by this
that she lias entirely or partially abandon
ed the study of the Grammar? His source
of information must be very different from
mine, if he can with confidence deny, that
the study of it, in that: state, is pursued
with the most scrupulous fidelity and ex
actness.
ft is remarked, that 44 the time of the Stu dent
is wasted and his genius frittered! a
way upon words. Respecting this I i.vvill
say bu: little. I will mention, however,
that Professor Christian observes, rthat
u Etymolngy is not always frivolous pe
dantty ; it sometimes may afford an usefu1
conimeRtupon the original siguification of
words." The correctness of.su ch a remark
I can duly appreciate. I have myself ob
served cases, which would -carry convic
tion to the breast ,of every one, that the
time which is spent in attempting to as
certain the true meaning and derivation of
words, is not time spent in vain. I have
witnessed 'young men, without pursuing a
regular Collegiate course, edeavoringtO'ob
tain some knowledge of Metaphysics & of
Chemical Philosophy. Although they were
by no meanslpersons devoid of talentvyet
Upon comparing them with those who were
following the same studies, but had like
wise been pursuing a regular course of edu
cation, the superiority of the latter, not
wjthstaniling they were far inferior in ip
tellccf,w6en subjected to examination, was
very discernible Indeed, vthyse yoMng
men, when a plain question in Metaphysics
was put to them, or, an expl.uiation requi
red of them of any Chemical phenomenon,
would hesitate in answering, or, if atjall,
Ihey woiihl answer evasively. They seem- j
eI to be wtteHy unable to comprepend! the
meaning ofihe jwprds Employed. Unless
he y w ere ad 1 r e ssed i n 1 angu age com plete-
ly; liivesteui o all appearance of tecpni-
an influence so reat as Judge Murphey,
should exert his utmost power l j' introduce
a system of education, fo grossly visiona

oued in the most public manner. ; ,L,;

The North. American Review', remarks
that the acquisition of Florida is one -of
the most important occurrences of our
history. The acquisition of Louisiana,
indeed, was hardly complete without it,
or could there be any security to the South-
Western frontiers, while Florida remained
in foreign hands, and opened a way to one
of the most vulnerable parts of the United
States. Its acquisition, after a negotia
tion which baffled the skill of our ablest
statesmen for thirty years, entitles Mr.
Adams, by whom the negotiation was con
ducted, to a praise second only to Mr.
Jefferson's for the purchase of Louisiana.
Florida is rapidly peopling and improving.
The address referred to above, is from the
press of a ' settlement three years old.
The. township granted to Gen. Lafayette
adjoins that of 1'alahassee, and is probably
to be surrounded by one of the most, fruit

but of the World, Iu the event of the com

T)VO DAYS LATER FROM ENGLAND.
iVew York, Jpril 18.
- The Euphrates, Captain Smith, which arriv
ed last evening, brings London papers of the
28th, and Liverpool of the 29th of June, inclu
sive. z The Corn Averages Bill passed the House of
Lords on the 25th, an amendment having been
introduced on motion of Lord Goderich, which,
it was said, would put the averages on an unex
ceptionable footing. The places where the ave
rages are to be taken are to be fixed upon, from
time to time, by the King in Council ; so that
not only may those markets he chosen where
the greatest sales are effected, but a facility will
be afforded for preventing speculators from creat
ing false averages by nominal bargains.
. The House of Lord?, on the 27th, was left sit
ting on the Warehoused Corn It 11. Lord Grey
thought the cultivation of tobacco a subjeci
worthy the consideration of Ministers. It was
supported by the Duke of Wellington and Earl
Grey, though it was opposed by the agricultu
ralists, the Earls of Maimsbury' and Stanhope.
The speeches of the Duke of Wellington and
EarMirey were principally taken up with the
course they were pursuing Lord Goderich
admitted that the impositions were laid for the
purpose of encouraging the cultivation of to
bacco in the North American Colonies, when in
the British possession ; and, as the original cause
did not now exist, he believed the reason fur not
repealing them was some doubts which were en
tertained as to the effect oftheir repeal. He
understood the climate of England was not fa
vorable to the cultivation of tobacco ; btflupon
this subject he did not pretend to be well in
formed, and he considered the whole subject
well worthy the attention of Parliament, Lord
Lauderdale mentioned, that, for six or seven
years after the American war, tobacco was culti
vated with great success in England : he knew
one instance where two or three hundred acres
were under it. Tine subject was left under dis
cussion. The above bill was ordered to be read
a third time on the 28th;
According to the Courier, Parliament would
not be prorogued till the 2d of July, when the
ceremony would be performed by the King in
person. i
A trial of great importance Jto the West India
Colonies had just taken place in London. ' A
maleslave was brought to England in 1822, from
Antigua, with her roistress, & afterwards return
ed to that island. She was, two years afterwards,
claimed on the part of the Crown as a manu
mitted slave it being contended that the fact of
her havinjg once been in England made her fore
ver free, and that her return to Aniigua did not
imply her return to slavery. Lord Stpwll would
shortly give judgment in the case.
' Report mentions, that the Duke of St. Albans
received, on his ma:riage,a present of 2OG,0OU,
and an annuity of 700 per annum. '
Every thing respecting the Thames Tunnel
was proceeding favorably. :
Lord Piunhttt.Thh distinguished Nobleman
took his seat as Chief Justice of the Common
Pleas on Monday. The Court, long before his
Lordship arrived, was crowded to excess, and,
throughout the day, continued td be the resort
of the profession and the public,' who thronged
to render homage to the high character and
splendid talents of the illustrious Chief Justice.
On entering the Court, his Lordship bowed most
courteously to the Gentlemen of the Bar, and,
after he was seated, called on them by name, ac
cording to seniority to'.mdve;''; The other three
