The Coliseum is he gigantic traoo of n superhuman people who, for tko gratification of their pride, and ndulgcnce of their ferocious pleasures, jrecled a monument capable of containing l whole nation?and rivaling in massivoless and duration even tho works of uature. The Coliseum will stand when tbo waters if the Tiber shall have dried up within its] muddy banks. St. Peter's is tbo work of { ? thought?a religion of nil humanity nt juc epoch of tho world; it is not an edifice Jestined for tho accoin mod alio u of a vile people?but a temple for tho reccptiou of ill the philosophy, all the prayors, all tho grandeur, all tho thought of man. Tho walls seem to ariso and enlarge for Cod, rather thun with referoueo to the people. Micha-1 Augelo nlono coiuprelicudod Catholicism, and in St. Peter's wc discern its moat sublime and complete expression. It is in truth tho inouuiucutal transfiguretion of tho religion of Christ, its apothesos in stone. Tho architects of the Gothic Cathedrals wcro sublime barbarians. Aiicbarl Angolo was alone a philosopher in his conceptions, at. Piter's is philosophic Christianity, from whcucc the architect has expelled supersliliou and dnikueas, and rep accd thorn by beauty, spaco and unquenchable Hoods of light. Tho iucomparablo beauty of St. Peter's consists in its being a temple which might servo for the worshippers of any loligion? a deistical temple?if 1 may dare to apply tho word l?? stones, designed alone to invest tho idea of God with all its spioudor. t hough Christianity should perish, St. Fetor's would still remain tho universal, eternal, rational temple of tho religion which might succeed that of Chii-t, provided that it bu religion worthy of God aud human nature.

You also wish to marry, don't you; If you do not, you lire either more or less than woman, l/resuming that you are all right iu this matter, we call your attention to tho following extract, the words of a popular author: "A wife looks prettier, if she did but know it, iu her ueal morning frock of calico, than in the incongruous pile of finery which she dignifies with the lillo of full dr6As. Many an unmarried female wins the* hem i of her future husband in sjiuo ska pie, .wa pi eluding at'.irc, which, it donsuUed nb.>.u, she would pronounce io& thcap Tcieepi I'm ordi nary wear, but wbu&f.by f'.s accidental suitability to her figure, taeo. idealize her youth woudorfu iy.

Now we assure one aud all?the uuinairiefi of the fair sex?tLat wo have known many females who really wished to marry lo live in siuglo blessed uoas, and die hushandless, for no oilier reason, iu all human probability, than that of die sing too gaudily.

A oolis i aud biiiy man is not woilh marryng; ami a sensible man will surely jui^o you advantageously in exact ratio to the dainties* aud simplicity ut' your dress.

At this instant, a little slender c fellow, not nioro than soven yoars old, came }' out, and with a very palo hut decided faco, 11 held out his hand, saying, as ho did so, ? with tho clear and firm tono of a hero: J' "Mr. Walters, sir, do not punish him?I 1 whistled.

Tho reason of this is, that when vatcr evaporates, it produces cold; the poous pot draws up tho water which in vai in weather quickly evaporates from the ides, and thus cools it, and as no waun iir can now get at tlit butter, it becomes inn and cool iu the hottest day,?Septimus Pi esse. jtomuam in t:m: ITu'it.?In tho f w luuivorsary meetings which we aLended, vo saw some tokens of the exaggerated, :cnvulsivo, bombastic stylo of speaking, vbich many clergy men think is eloquent.
