be best kept to himself. Is there any t'ning like prudence in this? Is there any thing like allection for that heart, which (as he saylhe has been so "fortunate" to win? None. Is Mr. "I" "a graduate?" hardly: has he ever taken "music lessons?" I see no music in his prose, and not much in his head, or he would have put his ideas into verse something lik. the above. He may know something of French, but from -the taste he has displayed in his "'delicate request," one would hardly think that he ever presumed to smell a flower, much less to have turned his attention to the study of Botany. Whether lie has been to a 'drawing school or not, I am not able to judge, from the picture of courtship he has drawn in that "delicate request." He asks your "advice" whether "you think" from her many "qualifications," that the unfor tunate being -upon whom, his slim heart has lavished its affections, can boy any means, make him a "good wife? " rf she' does, it will be more than he deserves. A man of sense would have round that out, (at least to his own satisfaction) before he sought-the hand of the fair maiden. Much less blot a column of the Advertiser by in serting such a foolish "request." There is sure to be fire, where therd is much smoke, and as his pitiful "request" seems lo be darkened "in extremo' with the smoke of folly. I am led to think that there is a spark of ambitious fire lurking withiin his veins, th:.t often leads the im prudent scribbler to stick his ideas in the corner of a newspaper, because they are too light and airy to be confined within the narrow limits of his contracted mittd. In the close of his idle effitsion, he says that "she has an independent fortune at her disposal." Here lies the whole secret -he knows not whether ie can marry "the fortune" and be -happy, when there is the eseless appendagia'ttending it called wife. Poot fellow! T hope-thefair one will keep the fortune foi'di herdisposal, & niev er let it be subject 'to that of one. -who is" entirely void ofjudgment, and totally igno rant of what will or will not tend to his own happiness.

For the Edgefidd A deertiser We the Members of the Mine Creek, Friendly Botanic Society, of Edgefield District, feel it our duty to return our hearty and most sincere thanks to the members of the South Carolina Legisla ture, for the repealing so much of the Med ical law of 181. as relates to the fine and imprisonment of Botanic practitioners.

SWARTWOUT AND TUE FEDERAL PRss -The following we copy ffrom the Ca nandaigua Messenger of the 27th uIt. "It is but a short time since the Federal press teemed with flattering encomium, on the very man whom they now denotuticte as a "runaway sub-treasurer." friend of the Administration. &c. In the spring or 1837 the following article appeared in the Ontario (N. Y.) Repository. "Voters of the United States: "Allow us to present fot your suffIrages, nt the next Presidentiatl election, the lol lowing strong tenm.comnbining legal know ledge andi mercantile talent of the highest order, to wit : "For President: "DANIEL WEBSTER.

When this same Samuel Swari wout was dismissed from. the New York custom house, te Whig merchants of that city - presented him with a service of plate! Now what wvas all this done for? Why these expressions of regard for a man whom they now stigmatize as a "runaway sub * treasurer?" But the particular regard of the Federalists for Swartwottt's charac ter does not merely consist in the fact of his Kbeing recommended as a suitable candid ate of their party lfor the Vice Presidency, tor in the compliment paid him hy the Whig merchants of the city, but in the faci that he presided at many of their meetings. as well as being named among their list of candidates for Congress. Let the people remember wvhen they-read the Whig char ges of corruption against, the administra tion, that the greatest scoundrel of the day -the tnan by whom the --United States have lost more than a million of dollars is a WVhig, and has received from his Fed eral partisans numneroue testimonials of their respet for his character.

James rTod, Thomas Fleming, Win. Darling, G. W. M'Clelland, John R. Nelf, anti Fred ick A. Rayhold,against the Rev. Dr. Ash bcl Green, Rev. Dr. C. C. Cuyler, Rev. William L atta, Thomas Bradford and Sol. omon Allen, by which the plaintiffs, who are styled Relators, call apon the defent dants to show by what authority they hold and use the office of trustees of the General Assemably of the Presbyterian Church of the U5. States of America. The defendants in their pleadings state what Dr. Green was appointed in the year 1799 a trustee under an act for incorpora ting the trustees of the Ministers and El ders, constituting the General Assembly of (lie Presbyterian Church in the United States, which offce he has held ince that period to the present time, anid that the other defenidants were duly elected by the General Assembly according to the pro visions of the charter. To this the Rela tors reply that they adlmit that the defen ,lanls were duly appointed and elected,but that the General Assembly did, in May int remove them from ofie and appoint the Relatori in their places. The detfendants ~ip and say that the -cirtarn eouibl% i not at their sessiop in this city in May last, remove thern from office aid appoint the Relators in ibeir place. It is known to our readers that there *as last Spring, in this city, a meeting of lii isers and Elders or the Presbyterian Church, convened in the Stventh Presby terian church in- Ranstead Court, which was called the General Assembly, and that another body under the same name met in the First Presbyterian Church on the Wasington Square. The first is usu ally designated the Old School, the latter the New School, and- the question in issue is, which is the true General Assembly. The Relators affirm that the New School Assembly is the true Assembly. and their acts are valid-the Old School party,who are represented by the defendants, deny this, and say that the New School party seceded and withdrew from the General Assembly, and are no longer a part of the Presbyterian Church.

SCOTT AND Slit oHN HAIVEr TEIR FIRST MEETIN.- lie prosperi ty, p.:ace and happiiess.of the U. States and Great Britain now depends, and for sonie tiume to come, will depend upon the respective proceedi:gs of- the above two Generals. When they 'meetrIor it is prob able that they will shortlythave a personal interview, i will not be for time first time. 11 we mistake not, it was upon the eve of time ever to-be-remembere.d 4th of July, 014, that Gen Scott was advancing across a beauti'ul plaiU about a mile and a half above Uhzppewa, with a body of choice American troops whon he intended to drill belre suu down, when he met Gen. Porter's light troops in conlnsion,und Gen. Brown who was riding hard to put the re serve oi tihe army it motion; the enemy was drawn up in lull and regular order of batme, supported by a heavy battery,with in point ulatk shot of the bridge. tie.. bcott passed the boridge, under a dreadful fire, formed his line, drove back 'the British ann haited a womtent to take breath; just then the smoke fronm the firing cletared away and a drummer was shot townm by the side ot Gen Scott; two of bs men instiautly seized the drum, and began to light for the possession of it, and at last appealed to Gen. Scott to decide on their respective claims to possession. At tils critcal juncture, a party of Brit msh slurp-iooters levelled their guns at the interesting trio, and im a few mimoments they would all nave lam hileless upon the plain, had not a gallant British ollicer,tyho %aw the whole oL these muvements, rode up t, froint of the rLilemen and ineat up their guns with his sword; that officer was Gen. Sir John Harvey, and that was his first meeting with Gen. Scott. In a few tie imets aterwards, the firiig inereased, the %11m1ke thickened, and as the British were won seen flying in- confusion across the plain to their works behind the Clippe wa, of course Gen-. Scott saw no more at that titne of Gen. Harvey. However, they will doubtless meet again i a day or two, and as they have added the wisdom and experience of twenty-five years to their undonhted bravery and ihon or,th-ir ineeting n ill te an interesting one. i'hey know each oiher well. as men of* namor, bravery. and sound sense. and therefore we catnnot doubt ofthem favorable result of their interview.
