T, the Honorable J. T. Studdert of Md.
The result of the recent elections in all the
Counties composing the Congressional District
of Maryland which you represent in the Cori
es of the United States, whatsoever doubts you
may have professed to have had on the subject
heretofore, must now satisfy you that, in sus
taining and supporting the present rotten and
corrupt administration, you are not reflecting
truly the wishes and opinions of the People,
whose servant you are. 1 call upon you, there
fore, either to reform, or alter your course alto
gether. or to resign your seat as a member of
tne House of Representatives. When you
were isstrvcted last w inter, you denied the va
lidity of the instrument which sought to bind
you to the service of the people. \ ou cannot
tontrovert the recently declared and deliberate
opinion of the people, expressed at the Polls,
every man speaking in his own proper person,
and passing judgment upon the measures of
‘the Governments.” I hail from Prince George’s,
Sir, and subscribe myself A Constiii'ent.

Classical studies are, without any compari
son, the most important of all; for their tenden
cy and their object is the knowledge of human
nature which they consider under all its grand
est aspects—here, in the languages and the li
terature of nations, which have left indelible tra
ces of their passage on earth; there, in the fruit
ful vicissitudes of history, constantly remodel
ling and constantly improving the frame of so
ciety.
Lastly, in philosophy, which reveals the sim
plest elements, and the uniform structure ofthat
wonderful being, whom, history, language, and
literature successively invest, with forms the
most varied, yet all connected with some part,
more or le»s important, of his internal constitu
tion. Classical studies keep alive the sacred
tradition of the moral and intellectual lile of
the human race. To curtail or enfeeble such
Mudies would, in my eyes, be an act of barba
rism—a crime against all true and high civili
zation,—and. in some sort, an act of high trea
son against humanity.—Cousin.

CROPS IN ENGLAND.
The harvest in England has been very favo
rable. The Liverpool Courier of the 3d ult.
says:—“The reports in the home counties are
more favorable as to the produce of the new
Wheats, and the yield is now expected to prove
an average; indeed, in Suffolk, it is estimated
by some growers to exceed a moderate aver
age. by one-fourth; the amount of the new crop
thus added to the crop of old corn remaining in
the hands of the farmers, seems to exclude any
probability for another season of having re
course to foreign importation to meet the local
consumption.” The price of Wheat had declin
ed in consequence of this favorable report, and
, ii was supposed that the new would continue
! to decline till it reached 42s. per quarter, when
the farmers would, it was presumed, withhold
their supplies rather than submit to such a sac
rifice. In some counties this reduction had
caused some distress. The Lincolnshire Chro
nicle, says:—“ For upwards of twenty years the
price of wheat has not been so low as it was in
Stamford market on Friday last. The finest
samples fetched no more than 44s. per quarter,
and the middling samples from 32s. to 36s. The
unanimous exclamation of the farmers was
“What’s to become of us?” In the families of
many hitherto respectable agriculturalists in this
! county, fresh meat is now almost as great a ra
rity as it is in the miserable huts of the Irish pea
sants, and where a little while ago comfort and
hospitality reigned, a scanty supply of the coars
! est bacon is all that is left to the farmer.”

DIED,
At his residence, near Fairfax Court House,
Va., on the evening of the 29th of September
last, Doctor William Gcnnell in the 49th year
of his age, after a severe indisposition of two
weeks. Seldom has a whole community sus
tained so great a loss as the citizens of Fairfax
County in the death of this estimable man. Af
ter attending the usual course of Lectures in
Philadelphia, hecommenced the successful prac
tice of his laborious profession more than twen
ty years ago, and by his unremitting attention,
his knowledge of his profession, his kindness
and humanity, had acquired the esteem and
unlimited confidence of all who knew him. It
is not one single neighborhood, but the entire
County, almost every family, will feel his irre
parable loss. If, in the language of an eminent
poet, “ an honest man’s the noblest work of
God,” it may be truly asserted that Doctor Wil
liam Gunnell was that man. The Physician
and the friend of the widow and the orphan, a
father to the fatherless, his whole life was one
continued scene of usefulness. In all his pri
vate relations, the most unexceptionable and
amiable; in all bis public transactions, high
minded and honorable and honest. He is gone;
but he has left us the rich inheritance of his vir
tues; and w hen parents shall direct their chil
dren to one as an exemplar of their conduct,
by imitating which they .may immortalize them
selves, and that their characters may descend
with a bright lustre to posterity, they will point
to the character of Doctor William Gunnell,
and, in the warmth of paternal affection, they
will say, “ Go thou and do likewise.”

NOTICE.
WHEREAS Robert I. Tnylor, Thomas Vow

Louis Beeler, as Trustees for the Mechanics’
Bank of Alexandria, did sell, at public sale, be
fore the front door of the said Bank, on the fifth
day of October, 1833. a Lot, or Half Acre of
Ground, on the east side of Fayette street and
south side of Cameron street, at their intersec

lars and sixty seven cents; and the subscriber
being the highest bidder, the same was knocked
down to him; and being called on at the time
by the said Trustees to subscribe his hand to
the conditions of the sale, &c. which he actually
did, and on the seventh of the same month and
year paid over the full amount of the purchase
money to the Auctioneer, and received his re
ceipt for the same, and called on the Trustees to
make him a deed for the same. In consequence
of a disagreeable altercation between himself
and the above named Thomas Vowcll, and other
causes probably, best known to themselves, they
have neglected or refused to make the deed;
and in their advertisement on the 4th of this
month, of a sale to take place on the 15th of
November next, of sundry property, they have
included this identical Lot, designated by No. 7.
This is therefore to forewarn all persons what
soever from purchasing the same; that said
Trustees can make no title to any other person
that can be valid; and at the same time to noti
fy the said Robert I. Taylor, Thomas Vowell,
George Brent, Robert Brockett, and Louis Beel

of them, answerable, in their individual capaci

tain, in consequence of their neglect or refusal
to make him a deed of the property purchased
at the said sale. _ _
