I I I* ? THE FATHER'S REQUEST. " I cannot leave you property," said a kind father to one of his offspring, " hut I will endeavor to provide the means for , your education. Learning, next to religion. is, in my estimation, the object i most desirable in this life. It will protect ; you from poverty, and, if sanctified by grace, will furnish you with the means of usefulness. The lad hesitated, but at length replied, ' Father, \ have no taste for books, but I wish to gratify you. j Since you desire it, I will study, and en- j deavour to make up by perseverance w^iat is wanting in love for the business." Tmc j * father sighed, and doubted the result but j thought it not prudent to express his apprehensions. Trie bo3* returned to his books, and applied himself with increased vigour ; and assiduity. Before the lapse of many 1 months, he discovered the operation of a j 1>rinciple in his mind of which he had not ; >efore been conscious. Unwonted sue- j cess began at first to reconcile him to his 1 studies; shortly to render him fond of iHem ; and at last, almost to infatuate him in their pursuit. Had not religion come in to moderate and direct his ambi- , lion, he would have become an enthusiast in learning. The resit ft is easily fold. He rendered ; him*. If proficient in every study which he undertook and became a man of erninf nee and extended usefulness. Had he followed the bent of his mistaken prejudi. ces, he would pro'uibly have lived a com. parativelv unknown and useless member qi society. CHRISTIAN PRR-OCCl'P VNCY OF MTNl?. From a letter of Rev. Phi'ip Milledolcr. J). I). New Brunswick, N. J., to the American Tract Society. The youthful mind, especially, needs early and diligent culture. If it be not pre-occupied?if the seeds of holv principle and action be not early sown in it, the enemy will sow tares, and the harvest will be found, in most instances, to correspond ; wiih such pre-occupancy. The comfort of individuals?the happiness of families ?the well being of society?the efficiency and permanency of our public institutions, ecclesiastical and civil, and consequently the security of the republic itself, * M are all most intimately connected mi in this christian prc-occupancy. " Under these circumstances there can be but one voice, I would say, in this christian community, on disseminating christian knowledge, and that is, tin it, a* promptly, as eytcnsively, and efficiently ! as possible. "The idea of furnishing primary and other schools with libraries of christian knowledge I most cordially approve. I believe it will be an important mean of diffusing the influence of the gospel in neighborhoods and families, and especially in destitute and otherwise almost inaccessible regions.v FEARS OF UNBELIEVERS VTliere is one thing, "said Mr. S., a professed infidel, to one of his companions in sin, "which mars all the pleasures of my life." "Ah," replied his companion, "what is that?" 'AVhy, I atn afraid the Bible is true. If I could know for certain that death is an eternal sleep, I should be happy; mv jov would be complete. But here is the thron that stings me? This is the sword that pierces my very soul! If the Bible is true I a?n lost forever! Every prospect is gone, and I am lost forever!" This unhappy man soon undertook a voyage, was shiprccked and drowned and most probably sunk into the mighty deep in ail the horrors of absolute despair. A Royal Wedding* Mr Rush in his memoranda of a residence at the court of London" gives the following account of a Royal Wedding. Aprit [1818.] The Princess Elizabeth was married last evening to the Prince of Hesse Homberg.* The royal family cabinet ministers,* foreign ambassadors and ministers, officers of the royal household, persons in the suites of the royal dukes and princesses, the archbishops of Canterbury and York, the bishop of London, the lord chancellor, the lord chief justice, and u few others, were present. The Prince Regent was not there, being ill. Our invitation was from the Queen, given through the Earl of Wiuchelsea, nearly throe weeks before. We got to the palace at seven o'clock. . Pages were on the stairs to conduct us to i I (knrnnma Tho rorrmonv took olace in. ?MV IWIM - ? ?V I the throne room. Before the throne was j an alter covered with crimson velvet, on which was a profusion of golden plate. There was a salver of great size, on which was represented the Lord's Supper. The company being assembled, the bridegroom j entered with his attendants. Then came tlie Queen, on the aim of the Duke of York, with the bride and royal family. All approached the alter. Her majesty sat; the rest stood. The marriage service was read by the Archbishop of Canterbury. The Duke of York gave the bride away. The whole tyas according to the forms of the Church of England, and performed with great solemnity. A record of the marriage was made. When ail was finished the bride knelt before the Queen to receive her blessing. The consent of the king (or r?$cnt) and : nriw council, is necessary to the validity j r-' j * -> of a royal marriage ill England. There is another mode, where the party intending to marry, and being of the male branch, is of the age pf twenty-six. In such ease, a record of the. intention on the books of j the privy council will authorise the mar- j riageat the expiration of a twelvemonth, unless parliament interpose an objection. ! Soon aftej the service was performed, the bride urefj bridegroom set off*for Wind- j >*>r, the rest ?<f the cornpgnv remaining, i The evening' passed in |iigh ceremony, WrYiout excfii fling social case. From the members of tl % rovfil family, the guests i ... , t ha?| every measure of courtesy ; hut the I whole demeanour of the Queen was re-1 markahle. Vhis venerable personage, the j head of a large family, her children nt \ that moment clustering ahoot her; the | female head of a great empire?in the seventy-sixth year of her ago?went the; rounds of the company, speaking to all; no one did she omit. There was a kindli-; ness in her manner, from which time had struck away useless forms. Around her neck hung a miniature portrait of the king. He was absent?scathed by the hand of heaven ; a marriage goir*| on in i one of his palaces?he, the lonely, suffering tenant of another. But the portrait was a token superior to a croarn! It hespoke the natural glory of #ifc and moth er, eclipsing the ?rttficial glorv of Queen. For more than fifty years this royal pair had lived together in affection. The, scene would "have been one of interest in i any class of life. May it not be noticed , on a throne ? j Tea was handed.. The Queen contin- j ucd to stand or move about the rooms. In one was a table of refreshments. I went; to it with Major General Sir Henry Torrens, an officer distinguished by service and wonnds, whose acquaintance I had ! made at Lord Rathurst's. He was one ' of the establishment of the DukeofYork. I On the table were urns and tea-kettles of; fretted gold. Sir Henry recommended | me to a glass of what I supposed w ine, in j a flagon near me ; but he called it king's cupt given only at royal weddings. Returning to the chief rooms, the Prin- j cess Sophia Matila pointed out to Mrs. j Rush and myself, the paintings ; also the representation of a bird from India formed of precious stones so as to resemble beau- j tiful plumage, with other objects of curiosity or taste in the palace. She did more?she spoke of Washington. She paid a spontaneous tribute to his virtues, j Xone but Americans can know this would fall upon the heart! To hear his immortal name pronounced with praise in a palage of George III., and bv a princess of his family, had a high and touching value. Mentioning this princess I add, that my- j self and family afterwards experienced l her obliging civilities in ways the remem- i uUiiVlt i? rrhp.rishod with irrate-I V vr* " ,MV" *w " D fill pleasure* At ten, the company came awav; not however without receiving, each one, 1 believe, a piece of the wedding cake. TIIE GREAT MISSOURI AN. The following extract of a letter is from j a gentleman formerly of this city, now on a tour through the Western States, and at present in St. Louis, from whence he writes; "I went the other night to look at the greatest curiosity that I have ever seen, ft is called the great Mis&ourian., and is the skeleton of the greatest animal ever known. It was found about 200 miles west of this plac-f?, in this .State, by a German. It measures to the top of the ribs 16 feet high, is 32 feet long, has two tusks i that are from 10 to 12 inches in diameter, and are 16 feet apart. The head and tUoks weigh 1100 pounds. The joints of the knee in the fore legs are inverted, so that he fiends his knee the contrary way from any other animal. He appears to have been web-footed, has no hoof--, hut toes about 8 or 10 inches long. The owner has computed its size, in comparison to the size of an ox here that weighs i 1000 pounds, and he is just 100 times larger than the ox, so that he must have weighed when alive, 100,000 pounds, j (50 tons.) I should think he would nave required live or six buffaloes for breakfast. I The six musicians, who play nt the exhibition of the animal, sit up in his ribs. "The owner has been offered 820,000 cash for him. He leaves in a few days for New Orleans from thence to New York, thence to Europe. It is worth a good fortune for any six men, but the owucr will not sell it." Troy Whig. The following notice of American artists abroad, is from a letter to the editors of tee Now York Signal:? " At Florence I saw Greenougli's great work, the statute of Washington. The design to strikingly grand and appropriale, both Republican and Christian. Washington is represented seated in his chair, with one hand resigning his sheathod suord, whilst with his right he points to heaven in acknowledgement of that Providence who had given him the v ctorv. The figure is just eight times the size of life, On one corner of the pedestal stands, j in a graceful attitude, a small statue of Columbus, and on its opposite another of an American Indian a noble specimen of the aborigines of our country. There are also two has relief, one representing Phoebus in the chariot, and the other f Hercules strangling the serpent in the cradle. Mr. Grecnouah will embark with his monument at Leghorn, on board the United States line of battle ship Ohio, early in March next. While at Florence I ' * TM.^ | also visited trie studio 01 rowers, x nc I Italians say they cannot equal him in | giving etpression to the marble, and t be1 lieve them ; for I saw there the bust of an | English lady of rank, more beautiful and lifelike than 4 had supposed it in the pow| er of the artist to crete.

THE EXERCISES of this Institution will bo resumed on the second Monday in January next ui.derthe direction of Mr. Chauncy P.

Mr. Judd is a graduate of Yale College, has had some evpericnee in teaching and presents with his application, a strong certificate of character and Competency, to teach from President Day Profe60r Silliinan, and the rest of the Faculty ol Yale, as well as a number of distinguished references; in this Slate. The object of i he course of instruction will he to tit pupils for any class in college, for mercantile pursuits, and'other walks of life. The ! mode of teaching will be the inductive, proceeding from truths simple and at once admitted. to those more difficult. Reviews wil. be frequent and rigorous. 1 he scholars improvement will not be estimated by the space gone over, nor merely by the number of idcasjie obtains; but by the U9e he can make of them.? Greek, Latin, and French, will be taught; and besides the customary English studies, instruction will be given in Purveying. Book-keeping, and in the chief papers of commerce. Miss Tliroop was Educated at tho Burling ton PemaU St m'nary in Vermont where her course was sufficiently thorough to induce Miss Green the accomplished Principal of t hat ' Institution to certify in almost unqualified terms to her compel* ncy for teaching in the most respectable Female Schools; Miss Throop presents moreover with her application high (es imonials, from sources of distinct lion iu this slate, where she has taught during the present year.
