in which I stand, in the situation of an ob

TIIE INFLUENCE OF WOMAN IN
THE FORMATION OF NAT
IONAL CHARACTER.
Extract Jrom Professor Frosfs Le.vture, at
the High School, on Monlay evening, Feb.
15, 1041.
The knights of the middle ages, who re
sisted the inroads of Saracen valor.preserved
western Europe from Mahometanism, were
not less true to the duties of gallantry, than
tho-e of Christianity. They acknowledged
no less the influence of female lieautv. delica
cy. anJ virtue, than that of the religion of
the Cross. The knight, indeed, was ever
as ready to do battle or his lady love, as for
his religion. They were both sacred anil
honorable in. his view, ;md he counted it bet
ter to die in battle, than flinch in his de ence
of the one or the other.
W&, that live in a colder and more cal
culating age, may smile at what we call the
fantastic gallantry of those knights of the
olden time; but it was the salvation of Eu
rope. Had the followers of the Cid, or the
men nt firmo. who battled bv tn Fide ot
Charles Martel, at Tours, possessed one at
om less of this same fantastic iin.l enthusias
tic gallantry, western Europe would at this
moment be tinder the blightning dominion of
the crescent. Those "good knights an!
true"' had to fight every inh of ground; and
to nerve their arms to the combat, required
all the influence of their religion, aye, and of
their fantastic gallantry too. II id they been
one atom less devoted either to the divinities
of the church or the fireside, they i-oti'.l
never have resisted the force of S tracen v -or,
iuid Mahometan enthusiasm. Female
int1uen e on the Christi n Ini '! t was a fu!
counter poise for the lia'eful i'ltla-m re ! '
false enthusiasm i n th" turh.Mied foe. The
purer, loftier no'.le impulse, in f i.-t. prcvai'e.l.
: nd Europe was preserved Iran c n pe-t

'ley and Akin correcting the blunders and
supplying the deficiencies of Clarendon and
Hume. In literary history and rnttcim,
we see Madame de Steal absolutely emanci
pating the French nation from the absurd
restrictions of what they were pleased to
call the classical school, and infusing into
very department of the bullet letters, a
life and energy which renders the recent
productions of the French mind, compared
with the frigid formalities which preceded
then, like a living Apollo, alighting from the
heavens by the side of his marble statute.
In the department of the natural and the ex
act sciences, there are Herschelt. and Soin
ervi'ie, and Man et; in moral fiction, Edge
worth, Howitt, the Sedgewicks, and Leslie,
and a host of others, whom the time would
fail me but to enumerate. Last, but not
least, in ihe most interesting and important
of all ihe departments of leorning, divine
theology, and practical devotion, there is one
name iri itself .i host. There was one wo
man who, up to the time of her lamented
death, exerted a more potent influence on
the m -Tal and religious character of British
and through the British, of American litera
ture, than was ever exercised by any oiher
author. The haughty aristocracy ot lung
land, who left Ch itterton to perish, hardly
tolerated Johnson, and superciliously patron
ized Southey and Scott, while they expatria
ted Byron, bowed to the commanding influ
ence of "eniii". hallowW hv religion, in the
character and writings of Manual, More.
The works of th.t author alone may chal
lenge comparison w ith those of any other of
my age. with respect to the powei Uiey nave
exerted in ameli-.ra'ing the national taste
ind. in fact, the national character. The
iher female writers of the present age have
aolily ontiibuted their respective contin
gents to the same great cause, and the result
'ias tieen n remarkable as it is gratifying.

(loon W.A In the Albany Advertiser
..f Saturday, We find ihe lollowing:
Gen. J. Johnson, of Kings county, offered
a resolution in the House yesterday, direct
ing the construction of a platform near the
Speaker's rhair, from which every member
desirous of speaking, must address the House.
This, if we mistake not, is the plan pursued
in the French Chamber of Deputies, and
would doubtles be attended with the one
cood effect ol stopping the small talk which
sometimes consumes so much of the time of
the House.
CCRRECT SENTI alENTS.
In loking over some extracts a day or
two ago, we found the following. It is a
part of a speech delivered by the Hon. B.
Hardin, of Kentucky, on the trial of Judge
Wilkinson and others for murder. Judge W.
had sneeringly alluded to the profession of Ked
dhig which was that of tailor, which was the
immediate cause of the affray; Mr. Hardin
renlies to that allusion as follows:
There is. I fear a principle growing up
ininnitni immira to our re no li! ir an instil -
tions a principle of classification favorable
to aristocratic distinctions. We have our
bankers, 1 1 wyers and doctors arrogating one
rank in society; the statesmen, heads of
i i n: .:i .u- r I
oeii.aiamen's, anil niu':iais wmrii uui mo-:
chanics and those who toil by the sweat of,
their brow to produce our riches, are cast'
into the shade; and knowing as they do,
that such an attempt, however noiseless it is;
made, still exists palpably, is it any wonder
that they should be so sensitive to every
whisper that is breathed to mam the invidi
ous distinction t An apparently unimpor
tant word mojr-wronnH deeper than rough
language. Call a man a knave, and he may
forget it; hut call him a fool and he will
never forgive you. Call a young lady a co
quette, and she may pardon you; but tell
her she is ugly, and she will never abide you
the longest day she lives. Telia tailor he
is a botch, and he may not een get angry
with you; but sneer at him about his goose
