"On the removal of the government from L Philadelphia to Washington,Mr. Harrison Smith followed with his printing oilice, and on the 31st October, 1800, commenced the National Intelligencer and Washington Advertiser as a tri weekly journal. By liitu alono it was couducled until 1807, when he was joined by Joseph (Jales the younger, who had just concluded a re.-idence in Phil adelphia in perfecting himself in tin* practical knowlidgeof printing. In 1810 Mr. Smith retired from the business, ami Mr. Gales became tlie sole proprietor of the National Intelligence!*, at which time the second title was dropped. And here we must pause a moment for the purpose <>f looking at the antecedents of the newly-fledged editor of this important journal, lie was born on the 10th April, 1780, in the rural town i ot Eckington, near Sheffield, and wlicn his J father crossed ihc ocean was nearly sewn i years ol?l. On his removal to U.deigh, | ahout six years afterward, lie wa< placed at ! school, and subsequently attended the University of North-Carolina ; and his youth prefigured the coming man.

Like his father before him. ho f.-n-K* liimcf.tr the art of stenography, ami it was in compli- j ance with the wishes of his father that he i removed to Washington ; ami though at | first connected with Mr. Smith as an assist- j ant, lie very soon became I.is partner, and ' 60 continued until h-l't alone.

"Ilere must wc pauso again for the purpose of bringing dojvn tlie story of William Seaton to the period of the family, as well as business alliance, lie was bom in King I f C? | William county, Virginia, on the 11th Jan. | 1785. At Uieold fjynily mansion he parsed j life -- 1 !? ^ in''u'<i iiuu mere, 100, tie iroit tl)e first step of learning, unci*- tlie guidance of a domestic tutor. lIe,also went through a course of..training'at wha^ was tlien famous academy of Ogilvie, n, Scotchman of family, afterwards Earl of Findlator, who had the honor of teaching such men as Wind ^ie]d SqoU, %William C. Prtston and R "Williams Leigh. At the'ago of eighteen Mr. Seaton entered earnestly upon the duties of life, and being a ready wiiter, he very soon become a politician. lie firat becanje assistant editor of one Richmond papers. From Richmond he wsnt to Petersburg, and took charge of the Republican during a long absence of its proprietor, Mr. Thomas Field. His next advance was to tho proprietorship and editorship of the North Carolina Journal, published at Halifax, the former capital of the State. Though its politics had pfeviously been of the federal sohcol, he promptly took sides with the republican party, in which he had been raised, and lo which be always belonged ; and when, on account of ill licaltb, contracted on the sickly shore of the Uoanoke, he sold the journal, it had become in his hands twice as valuable a property as when he purchased it, and obtained that additional price. His next move was to Rnleigh, where,in accondance with a previous ar rangement ho joined himself to the Register of Mr. Gales, and sister of his business % 1 partner l?y whose invitation ho came to ''Washington,in 1812. Frorrf*this point tbe stories of Gales and Seaton become united", and", with rare concord nierge'in to one.

[Frcni tlie Home Journal.] John Anderson, My Jo, Amended. This exquisite ballad, constructed 1>V Kobert Hums out of a different and somewhat exeentiotmblo lyric, lias always left Romethine to be wished for and regretted ; it is not complete. lint who would venture to add to a song of Iiurns ? As Hums left it, , il runs thus : .John Anderson, my jo John, Wlieti we were first- ncijupnt, Your lock* were like the raven, Your bonnie brow wns brent, IJui now your brow is Inthl, Jolm, Your locks arc like the piiiiw ; Dili hlessini;* on your frosty pow John Aiulcrsou. mv io. - John Anderson. mv jo, John Wc elamb tin* liili theijithcr; Aii'l ninny ? eanty <lyv, John, We've lni'l \vi' sine anitlier : Now wc maun loiter ilof'n. .lolin, But limit) in hnii?l we'll j*??.

Fine as tliis is, it, docs not quite satisfy a contemplative mind ; \\,hen one lias pout! so far, lie looks ami loners for sonielliini; beyond tlu? foot of tins hill. Many a reader of Hums hi list have felt this; and it is quite probable that many have attempted to supply the deficiency ; but we know of only one siii*;.iss in so hazardous an experiment. This is the added verse: John Anderson, my jo, John, When we have sb-pt. tliejjet her. The sleep that, a* maun sleep, John, We'll wake wi" ane anitlier ; Ati'l in that better worJ<l.

This poetical achievement is attributed to Mr. Charles tloiiKl, a gentleman f>f our town, whose' I if'j has been chiefly devoted to the successful combination of figures? hut nut fiLj'ires of rhetoric. The verse was written some years ago, hut it has not hitherto foittul its way into print ; vet it will deserves to be incorporated with the original song in any future edition of Burn's poems, and we hope some publisher will act 011 this suggestion. . * Anecdote of Aaron Burr. Trtv. T^i-vi nprwk'sv llrini. ivii IT auk - ton*?Burr's Fkelings Towards Hamilton.?'The duttl between Burr and Hamilton was fought at seven o'clock in the morning, and immediately afterwards, Burr rettimed to his own house on Ivichmoud Ilill (now corner of -V a rick and Charlton streets, New York.)?On the morning of the duel it chanced that one of Burr's cousins arrived in town from Connecticut, and made his way, about eight o'clock, to .Richmond Hill. Alexis, the factotum of the establishment, obeyed his summons at the door, and shpw od him into' the library, where he found Colonel Burr, alone, and engaged in his usual.avocations, Burr received his young relative cordially, and, in eveyr respect, as usual. Neither in his manner nor in his conversation was there any evidence of excitement or concern, nor anything whatever to attract the notice of his guest. Except the master ofthe house, not a soul in Richmond Hill yet knew aught of that morning^ work; nor, indeed, could it be said, iu any sense of the word, that the master himself knew what he had done. * In .a few minutes breakfast was announced, and the two gentleman went to the dining room and breakfasted together. The conversation was still quite in the ordinary strain, Burr inquiring after friends in the country, anu me youtn giving the lutorma tion sought. Afler breakfast, the gu?*st bade his liost good morning, and strolled off towards the .city, which lie reached about tea o'clock. As he walked down Broadway, he fancied he observed in passers-by the signs that something extraordinary had occurred or was expected. Near Wall street, an acquaintance rushed up to him breathless, and said; Colonel Burr has killed General Hamilton in a duel this morning." "Why, no he hasn't," replied the young centlemnn. with flin iitrrmaf. nncilivonam ? ] -> > I? have just como from there and taken breakfast with him." "But," replied the other,"I have this moment wen the news on the Bulletin." The cousin reflected for a moment on the absolute serenity of Burr's manner, and con eluding that he would certainly have mentioned so interesting and occurrence if it had taken place, was still utterly incredulous, and denouncing the reports ns false, went on his way. Before turning into Wall-street, he found the whole city astir, and soon had reason to suspect that the bulletin was only too true. So completely could Burr command Iris features and conccal his feelings. To a late period ofljja life. Burr justified his conduct with r?gftrd to this duel. Once, it'appears, and only once, lie revisited the ground at Weehawken, where it was fought. The scene was "remarkable" indeed, as Mr. Parton observes; * TtlfMUt liii AilA 4 ivui?IWUIO UWiPIUII Oil which Burr spokrf of ibe duel seriously and, Jrtloqneirtly. 5 U wjui when, for the only time in hit life, lie revisited (lie ground where it was fougkt.* lie went thereto obliges young friend* who wished to'sod a spot so tainout* Leaving the bout at the foot of thelieigfits of Weeliawken, just where Burr lia*l let hjs boat on tlmt ^fafal raoraing a quarter of a ccntury before, they cliofbed over the Rnaie. rock"; and, ?oon reached the ground.

In tlie boat, Burr had been | somewhat thoughtful and silent, but seem* I ed to enjoy the bright day and pleasant I shores, as lie always , eifjoved . bright and | pleasant tilings. On reaching the scene, lie i plaefcd his companion on the spot where ' Hamilton had stood, and went to the place ! where lie had stood himself, and proceeded i to narrate the incidents of the occasion. t The conversation turned io tlie causes of i | the duel. As lie talked, (lie old lire seeyv j i ! ed to behind led within him: his eve blazed;! I j 1 | his voire rose. lie recounted the K?n<j cat a- , i j lomie of wronirs lie had received from Ham-! i i ilton, and told how lie had forborne and 1 forborne, and forgiven and forgiven, and i . ? e> . t | even stooped to remonstrate?until lie lia<l i j no choice except to slink out of sight, u j i ! wretch degraded and dispised, or meet the i i I calumniator on the lieid and sile.iec him. t j He dwelt much oil the meanness of Jlainil i Ion. lie charged him with being inah vu* : ?

' ! lie spoke of what Hamilton wrote on the ' j evening ln-fore the dm-1 with infinite on- i 1 ; (empt. "It rends,'" said lie. " like the cm | j Cessions of a penitent monk. These isola- h j lated expressions, my informant say, eon- ' | vey no idea whatever of the tiery impulsiveness with which he spoke. He jusliliuil; all he had done; nay, applauded it. lie was moved to the d< ftl of his soul; : j the pent-up feelings of twenty-live year* ! burnt into speech, llis companion, who J had known him intimately many years, and I had never seen him roused before, was al ! most awestruck at this strange outburst of; j emotion, and the startling force ol many of I his expressions. lie remembers wondering! that lie should ever have thought Burr of! * . small stature, for during this scene, the lofti- ; ness of his demeanor was such, that his very : fonu seemed to rise :iu<] expand.
