The volume now in the cou.se of pub lication will contain an admirably written me moir by the celebrated l)r Olmthus Gregory, an able sketch of Mr. Hall’s character as a preacher from another hand, and a portrait oil tterl, engraved by Mr. Forest, a ski.tul aitist. I'arley's Magazine, Xo. 1—Boston—Lilly, W ilt A L’o —Peter Parley’s tales anil travel! have amused many a youth. I his magaziue is intended, in the same familiar way, to attract the attention of those who do not like to read as ata.'A, and to in.lure them to read for pleasure. I* t> t.»be published sent monthly, and will treat of the manners and customs of foreign countries, of vovages and tiavels, of natural history; some times interesting stories, sometimes explanations of vaiious trades and pursuits vvill enliven its co lumns, which will be illustrated writh abundant engravings; the whole at the price of one dollar per annum. This number before us, which is a specimen number, aff -rds great promise of use fulness and s»ui.d instruction, by the dissemina tion in plain language, and in short narratives, of | thing', meet to be known. Mr. Br.H.ks the editor of the Portland Ad vertiser,—whose iive:y sketches of Men and Things in Wa«^ingtori have been in favorably received—is now on a Southern tour, and his last letter is dated from Charleston, (S C ) We have copied it in to day’s paper. Massachusetts.—We "ere let! into error in regard to one of the Districts of Massachusetts, in stating that Caleb Cushing was chosen to re present it in Congress. In that District, there was no choice, owing to divided votes. Mr. C. however, received 700 votes more than any other candidate. In the Berkshire district, George N. Brigg« his been re elected, and in the Franklin District, tva-rge Greunell, Jr. 1 lie V ice President of the United States has, we hear, taken a house in tile Seven Building: (Pennsylvania Avenue, Northwest of the Presi dent’* House,) lor his residence in Washington. From Mr. Brooks' sketches of “Men in - M ashingtoo,” communicated for the Portland Duly Advertiser: ^ Tit Georgia Dtftgution.—In this delegation 'here is much ability, not extraordinary, spleii did ability, but Mimcrhing above the common run of Congressman Mr. Forsyth, one of the Sen atnrs, formerly Munster to Spain, now a reputed candidate for the Cabinet, is a man of much ta •mt in his war. As a speaker, his manner is (' cgant, graceful, courteous. The modulations ' I nis voice are well adapted to make an impres S'|*n; and his utterance is ready and fluent. H‘ aftetts at times with all this elegance of manner, » bitterness of expiession, which cannot be agree *t> e—and being more disposed to see things to j ridiculous a"d absurd point of view than in ant uj:i*r '‘Sht, be generally presents the argument! * '^adversaries in that manner. H'S declama Uon 14 beautiful, at times splendid; his word! are the very best that could be selected; his im -'^nation brilliant and generally chaste, and hn P°*er.0' 'i'us'r*tiun rather remarkable,—bu *'vhaii this, his arguments are mere shadow! n any and all questions. He cannot reason.— :y* ""P^sible for him to present any thing liki ti-m ar®uaieQt bearing directly upon the ques Mr. Forsyth is a man of words instead of ide *■ Not that he has no ideas, but he has man< "'ore words, fine words, than he has ideas, ean to say his clothing is gaudy, gorgeous, daz ng it tunes, but the thing clothed is often i poor one. It is like putting gold trappings, ant • 4 a famoul warrior, in ipun, plnme, and iword, on a sorry mule. However, I would not under value words in these times, when they are s» roUch neglected, for the ability to command good , words .s next to the ability to command good ide-, as Words suggest ideas. Words are the arms of ideas. Well chosen words make even old ideas appear to be new ones. 1 cau very well see how Mr. Forsyth can be considered surpassingly eloquent, as he was thought to be in the Georgia Convention, when advocating the permanency and durability of the Union, for there the theme was a grand one, and on a »raud occasion—and he was among men nlottinz destruction to the Union— and thus the subject exalted him. But Mr Forsyth is not an eloquent man, if thought is a part of his elo -quence, as no man whose views and reflections are not proportioned to his manner no matter h ow eloquent that mftj be, can long command alien tention. This is true of Mr. Forsvth. At first all listen: all consider him extraordinary, but he soon wears out. His beautilul words are like beautiful-toys. They fatigue one, or they are tike that repast, which should begin with the de sert and then end with the desert. Mr. Forsvth is probably.over fifty years of age, but I do not' know his 'exact age. He is little short of si* feet, well built and well proportion ed. In private life lie is agreeable and enters heartilv into all the engagements of society. Mt/Thouf is the colleague ot Mr. Forsyth. Mr Troup is well known as the fiery nullmer whose messages ami threats made so conspicuous, but so harmless a part of the Georgia thunder during the administration ol Mr. Adams. Dur inir this session of Congress, Mr. I\ has been nearly all the time,-and of course has not ad I dressed the Senate this session, nor did lie ad dress it during the last. Domestic afflictions, it is said have made him unhappy,—"f which un happiness every feature gives indications lie has a verv sour uninviting countenance. I be lieve on nullification, he and Mr. Forsyth have this winter separated, Mr. I roup being a nullifier. and Mr. Foisyth a Union man—but in social lite there is the best understanding be tween them—and this difference in politics makes no difleiencc iu mutual attentions. As the editor of the Globe seems verv desirous to impress upon the public inind that he stands fail io the good graces of Gen. Jackson and Mr. Van Buren, and as this is an affair in which the people are very much interested, we would re commend to Mr. Blair to issue a weekly bullet in. something in the nature of a thermoraetrical table, exhibiting the rise and fall, the cooling and warming of their affections towards him. W e trust to the well known honesty of Messrs. Blair and Kendall, that they make a true and faithful report — Telegraph. The JEntian II u p may be made to any size, and the sounds will correspond to the magnitude id the instrument. A colossal imitation of the yEolian Il.irp was invented in 1786, by the Ab be Gattoni, at Milan. It was called the Giant’s Harp, and was made by stretching severr iron wiie* tuned to the gamut, from the summit of a tower fifty feet high, to a neighboring house. It was only during high winds that this mighty in strument could be heard to advautage, but dur in0’ a tempest it powerful but harmonious tones could be heaid at a a distance hardly credible. «\ tW t v t\»eiuenV \GRNTI.KM.XN » desirous of purchasing, for bis owi os*, Hurl) efficient Field llaiula Any per son having such Negroes to dispose < f, will d<> well tci apply to Major Lawuksok 1 xwis, near Alexandra, 1) j. apr 9 t !Oih *rr George A.
