What an amuxing quantity ol useful r.nd practiced knowledge the young men at Am herst College arc likely loatquire! RELIGION, MORALITY AND THE I'll ESS. We have heretofore noticed t'40 prospec tus for the publication of a new daily paper in this city?not a religious paper, but a paper demoted to worldly pursuits and the making of money; 10 bepatroivxed by moral and religious people only* and to be under the special protection of certain tract and other sotH'lU'S. This making a trade of religion Is a shock ing evil. We find hospitals established^* charitable institutions set on foot?new plans devised to meliorate our condition?new buildings erected?new laws devised?new improvements suggested; and when we follow them up ami sec them organised, wu shall find thv humane and charitable pro jectors filling the lucrative places of govern ors, presidents, scribes ?gents, keepers.prin ters, porters, ?tr, 8cc.?a son here, .1 brother there, and charity is made to siisvmt thu double purpose of private gain uml public good. ? On every side we perceive new schemes to obtain money for religious purpose-.*: eon verting the Jews and the Heathen*?sending missionaries abroad?educating the fndsans, ami establishing pious newspapers. Those sums which should be converted to objects of charit), to feed thu hungry and eloihe the tutked, are taken from those who cannot afford then* to emistitute a hind whk'h is to he expeuded under thr superiutcvlitncc of certain pious men. The annual amouut raised for such purposes in this country is immense, and we are feeling the force of it, not ki substantial and wholesome reforms, but in the afcakHIng interference ia private concerns In invading the sanctity ol domes tic retirement* and attempting to hold public opinion and public will In a thraldom as oppressive as the inquisition itself. \y e are told that this Is all for the sake of religion, and he whoobjects to it U no friond of religion. Let us beware of fanaticism, of; bigotry and intolerance; they are the curaes I of human society, and always a*snme some plausible shape to deceive and beguile.? Men do not always practice as they breach, and when we pee profit introduced under the panoply of spiritual guides, we feci s pang for the abuses of that mild and hnppv faith #hich encourages no hypocrisy. >Ve lately noticed tlie chaplain of the assembly, who offered up prayers for all eMceu* those wjio voted against the Ooeek hill, and those he considered "worse than T|)r|ta."

The (uirticulur friend* of Mr. Webster wilt now have leisure to mourn over the weakness of that moment when he ha rattled his political reputation before a very censo rious world. His bitterest enemies could not have wished fur n mure sad affidr to be coo* necked with him than the Boston's ma igama tiuii plan. Ue calculated too much on the inftuenee of his tuime and reputation, and like other ambitious men he has out run the fueling* of his'owii constituent*. 1 The failere ??C Mr. Webster's project in I Uomni, will, it is hoped, act as a caution else where. The administration at Washington lias been atore injured by iu haughty, proud and dictating friends -titan all the noise and unrour of its enemies. In Boston as well as elsewhere, there will always beJaundatet of managers who by blotter aruT noise en? deavor to take the lead in favor of particular candidates, aitd w I to hope by thi* conduct to get hold of nunic office for themselve* or Utclr friend*. With regard to the great men of the east, we think reasonable people will soon form! definite opinions. Edwanl Evertu, of Mas sachusetts, haa perhaps the best political proepeetbeforehimof any man in New-Kng land. Hccameintopolitiealllfeatatimewhcn the republican party in Massachusetts had attained its ascendancy. Of all men ift that part of the country, perhaps lets can be said against his political reputation than that of any other. He is u young man of great learn* ing and acquirements. As an oratbr he has few equal*. If.s knowledge of the world and of political life to not mat, but a few years will increase it. Let pim profit by the example of his predecessors and Cotempora* rie*.?A'at, A4v, In the last week of March, a large " me ctianlcs' meeting" whi held at Birmingham, EngtiUid, The I'ulbwlng extract i? from the speech of the gentleman who opened the meeting i | " In the first half year of (826, not less that 9000 pmdfot uitil skillful tradesman ui>d merchants were reduced to bankruptcy. These unforeseenaiu|arbitrary alterations tn the currency, recorded ? gainst t)iem a sen tence of pauperism and tots of character; and against tne working claim sentence of starvation. I cannot e^iness,nut every man m ho hears me cun appeui to his own feeling* to tell, the agony of the struggle?the vain, Uopclvsa struggle these victim* made for the orcscrvation of fortune, character, and life. Meanwhile the capitalists, the fuudholder, the landholder, una the annuitant, profit by the mil) of the industrious and productive They stand ready, with tucir mass es of wealth, t? purchase the productions ot the I aboq ring classes at the low est ebb of price to which they are arbitrarily rcduccd, and ihe agriculturist, us well at the manufactu rer, is sacrificcd to their power, it has been strongly argued that it is better to return to the level of iov> prices than to the high level, and that by the risout value cf commodities, the laborer is injured, as the rise in value of his wages only follows at a distance, I per fectly agree that his wages do only follow that rise at a distance; he is, in fact, injqrcd and sacrificed by all fluctuations) but when the product of hf? labor rises, he ut least, con tinues employed, his confidence in himself ami the confidence of his master ar e main tained, und his wages quickly follow the rise in the value of goods. But in the fall hit rua? is rapid and complete; he gets no em ployment at all, and when the price* seem to have settled, it is but slowly that the manu facturer ventures a&ain to employ him, or that his confidence hi himself returns. "The full in wa^es is sooner felt where very powerful machinery is employed, as in Manchester. Not that it Is in my opinion that machinery is, in itself, injurious to the people; on the contrary, I am sure It is most calculated to advance their happiness and to multiply their comforts. It is only when the Channels of the distributions of its benefits are interfered with, that it becomes more auddeuly destructive. A* an instance of this, I need only ear, that it is an undeniable and notorious fact itlut men in the district of Man chester are actually toiling tixteen hour* a day for the mherubfe pittance of 3m Vd a xoetk. And think not, tellow?townsmen, that this will not spread itself tterci it i* loot ap proaching, though with silent steps?fresh tytnds are dally turned out of employ, and wages are greatly reduced. I know men lately in my employment who could earn 24e per week, who ure now working for the pa riah at Bs per week, and to obtain even that, they must put forth strepght almost super human, There is ope man who has to main tain himself, a wife, a??'l three children, under five years of age on less than la 6d per day, and to obtain this, he has to wheel one hundred weight and a half of Hand |8 miles up a steep hill, and return the tame distance with the empty barrow: a species erf labor more se? ere to him, his being unaccustomed to it, and from the want of necessary fowl to 1 recruit exhausted nature. After this toil, he 1 must return home, |o starve with hi* wife and children; and this, you well know, ts by no i means a Military case. There is another In I stance of a man lately in my employment, rwho is entirely without work, and only re ceives two shillings per week from the pa rish. I mention these facts to prove, thwt if any time is proper for the laborer to assert ami endepver to regain his rights, it lw now| fir the minds of men arc fer.uluelly* led to bear their Miffl'rings with comparative complacency s*Mhen It ts that they sink into servility,? and H becomes very un certain whether they will arouse to^a of duty.* u ?
