Comnnunications. For the Edgefed Advertiser. Let hin toho doth in folly pride, -*Hard on a rail be rodc stride." yr. Editor: In justice to the ladies, we condescend ,to notice some of the errors of that vaunt ing egotist, who signed himself "A nithony" iti a late No.oC your paer. fie reminds us -of the celebated "Don Tuixotte." In fact, a change of circumstances would make him a perfect "Don."-The latter suppo. :ing ~the -wind mills" he giants, made a that daring adventtire, which resulted in the breaking of his lance, and in the con lilete overthrow of himself and his favorite Rosiuante;-the former construing a mere relation of th'eir accomplishments into an -attack upon the fair, pours forth the hit terest invectives upon the head of "Inquis itor,"at the expense of his own ignorance and folly. So glaring a mistake, could only have been caused by an actual want of perception, or by the grossest ignorance of the spirit of the aget either or which, would have deterred any "prudent main" rotmt sticking "his ideas in the corner of a newspaper." The veriest school boy knows, that all virtuous femalesstand high in the estimation of every intelligent nian. He has erred. still further, in his surmises concerning "I's" tender sensibilities; for it has ever been our private sentiment, that to love, cherish, andprotect the gentler sex, is in accordance with the first principles of our nature, and characteristic of every noble and generous heart. Bit another reature of the effusion of this genius, developes, more clearly, his real intention. Under the pretext of vill dicating "innocent and helpless woman,' from what his brain sick fatcy forged into an "assault," he comes forth in the In guage of a critic, and pronounces "I's" production to be a gross violation of the first principles of composition, and inde pendent of all the rules of rhetoric, anti lo gic, lays down as the unerring standard of a correct style, his pitifuljargon! Now, were we-to assume the unpleasant task (if criticising upon the writings of others, tce would adopt the staudurd of the Latin Poet 'Scribendi recte, sapere est et principiwa efons." He speaks -of "I's" want of "music" in both his poetry and prose. Nothing is more common than to im peach others wit h ignorance, of what we are ignorant of our selves. "A's" cant is proof of this asser tion. It warrants the inference, that he may have heard of the name of "mutsic" unl poetry, but knows nothing of their neining; and also, that le prides himself -n being a doggerel Poet. -Verse is the trade of every living night, Yow every scribbling blockhetd dares to write." These Poets are dangerout characters! Whatever conflicts with their caprice, is liable to the attacks of their doggerel 'sjplurges." We excuse hts allusion to "Inquiiistor's" want of college privileges. hecause of his .own deficiency. He quiestions our being ;a "graduate" only. presuming, it seems, 'thiat we may have had the advantages of an academical education. Now we are sorry that we cannot extend the same t-harity tohArflor it is a question with us, nwhethei- he ever had the advantages of the latter. That "Inquisitor" should have reqtuest ued informotion as to what qualifications are uccessary to constituto a *good com panion," appears never to have entered -the scribller's brain. His mis'nderstaud ing however of omatters ofless interest. ac cotuts for his ignorance on the more im qportantt subject of marriage. Trhe deluded egotist supposes, the dispIositioni of woman is so easily knowvn, that to err thereitu, in dlicates wveakness of judcmemt! Wonde-r 'ful gentius!!! As-the light of the "king of daty" drives dlarkness from the earth, so the bright scintillations of his solomon-like fantellect,. make visible the (lark recess nf womaan's heart! In charity to "A," we will takie no fur ther notice of his miserable effusion, he. tieving that its publication was suflicient piunishjnentt. We cannot however, in jus tice toi our conscience, let this opportunity pass by, without giving him a word of ad vIce, as he appears to be a beardless and inexp-erienced youth. Andt this we deem the more necessary, as it mtay save him -the chagrin and rermorse which must al ways attnd such. knotwing jackanapes. -Then, never let zeal -for a cause interfere -with your judgement in discriminating be. rtweent the 'apro and con." Love and defend the Ladies; hut (10 not ,regard him as their enemy, wvho admires and hence brings to public viewv, such of their qualifications as yjou are not able to wppreciate. And above all, never impose Mbggerel upon an intelligent commutnity. INQUISITOR. ( Sel ected for the Adcertiser.) A cE.RTAi-N CURE FOR LOVE. Take eight .uncee of consideration. half the quantity of indifference, ten grains of jagratitude, six scrules of -patience, -a small spring of rue, two handfulls of -em ploymenlt, four months absence; mix ghbem together wi:h the constant conversa -tion of a rival; to these add as much dis cretion as nature hath allotted you. Boil ishem together without intermission till a -4irdl part he consumed; cool thetn with a . few sighs, and sprea:d over all, the thoughts of your lover's imperfection, & apply the plaster warm to your heart. Be sure you , lo not take it off, till it come off itself; if abis fails, your case is desperate. G. o. s. [avr REQU~tsT.1 .Extract from the reptiy of Mr. Webster, to -Gen. Hayne in the U. S. Senate.

Sir, I thank God, that if I am gilied with a little of the spirit which is said to be able to raise mortals to the skies, I have yet none, as I trust, of that other spiri t, which would drag angels down.

Shoulder to shoulder they went through the Revolu tion-haud in hand they stood round the Administration of Wasiington, and felt his own great arm lean upon them for sup port.

From the ew Orleaas Bce, 4th inst LATE FROM NiEXico.-By the schooner Anna 3aria, arrived yesterday from Tamt pico, which she left on the 23d March we e have received the following intelligence: General Majia, at the iead of the feder alists, haid fought the government troops under the command of General Cos, at Tuspan, on the 15th and had achieved ai signal victory. This triumph had dissi pated the fears of ihe inhabitants of Tam pico. who had been under appreheuion t of a siege, by the Centralists. Nothing was known of the army under Urrea, at the departure of the Anna Maria. The following is an Extract from the I Express detaehed by General Majia, to the t the Commander at Tampico: "Liberatint Army!-] have the pleas- . tire to announee to your Excellency, that we have just obtained a complete triumph over the division termed the vanguard of the government, duder the command of Don Martin Cos. I will inform you of all the details of this brilliant action, as soon as I shall have gathered them. For tile present, I shall only state, that after three hours hot firing, we compelled our cne mies to capitulate. You will see by the , capitulation enclosed, that the vanquished t troops are to fall back upon Mexico, by regular marches, with the troops of the rear guard, who were advancing otn me. I have taken 200 prisoners. One hun- - dred and fifty of the centiraists catne over to ottreranks at the beginning of the action. AN the artillery, laggage, and 350 stands ofarms fell into our hands. *-We have to deplore the loss of fotir officers and twelve privatee.. . Six of she officers and 12 privates of the enemy have been killeid -"JOSE ANTONIO MAJIA." - - t Ntxw Laos.-By the way of Tamnpico , we have received the important itttelli getnce, that thme state of Newv Leotn has de-. telared itn favor of the Federal system. The plan adopted at Tampico otn the 16th December, was proclaimted and a provis i' nal governament establishted. The gov ernor has -alled uponi the electors to tap point municipal councils. It is probable that this declaration of New Leotn will eta able Gen. Lemus to march into the inte rior at the head of a strong force. BATTLE OF TUsPAN.-Tlhe following extract of a letter addressedl to us froma Tampico, gives some further particulars , of the a(Tair of the 25th Marebt: *'One of the aids of Getneral Mexia was killed and the other wroundled. Thme gen erar's servant received a hail, whic~h ett-= i tered his breast atnd wettt out at his shotul-, n rier. Mexia'himself was struck itt the left i i foot by a ball, whtich fortunately did no l harm. In this glorious afiair a soldier w as i very near rtunnittg the general thtrough I with his hayotaet, but the general seized him with ithe left hand, and with the other| ran him thmough the body with htis sword a with such force that the blade broke. The: engagement lasted moare than two htoure.' The p~arties fought from street to street,I anti finally the victory rested withI the de renders of the peop~le's rights."
