It is a City Meeting7, without distinction of rrced er party and if anything shall be said or done cal¬ culated to offend any person who may attend, the circn.nstance will be regretted by none more heart¬ ily than those who have issued the call. For once, an opportunity is proffered to all to evince prac .iically their sympathy lor au unfortunate and suf¬ fering People What generous heait will refuse to respond to the appeal1 Tiie War »villi .Mexico.

That Gen. T. has positively desiat cd from and abandoned the idea of advancing far¬ ther on his present line of invasion, because of the scarcity of water, the difficulties of the route, ami the imposing stand of the Mexicans, is ot b ast a matter ol inference, since he is not the man to pro claim it if such were the fact We infer, however, from the unusual and feverish activity now char¬ acterizing the movements of the Wor Department tiud the pr»mptneo with which troops and Applies are dispatched to the <!u!f. that it is understood at Washington thai our troops have hard ugutingin prospect, ami tlint the Wor is not u holiday exor eise, to be setileii by merely breaking an Armistice and orderinsi an advance to 'the Halls of the Mon- tezumns We apprehend that the victors rit Mon terey have n more correct idea of Mexican1 prowess than formerly, ami that Gen.

Oar Administration, therefore, is obviously intent on assembling in Mexico an army of Twenty to Thirty Thousniid effectives, lliir which not less than Forty Thousand must be mut¬ tered into sen ice hoping Co crash Santa Anna and Mexico by one powerful, well directed blow. Such, as we understand it. is the meaning ol recent movements on all sides. Now to concentrate Thirty Thousand, or even Twenty Thousand, fighting men a( any point as fur West as Monterey or Tampico, provided with the means of advancing to Pan Luis Potosi and there attui'k.m- ti-.iiitu Anna, is ait undertaking tor which millions of money will be required, and Congress must speedily authorize new Loans and extraor dinary disbursements. To say nothing of the ine¬ vitably great and deplorable loss of life, it will cost not less than'Five Millions of Dollars tu follow Santa Anna to his present stronghold and successfully at¬ tack him there. And for what shail this heavy ad¬ dition to our National Debt be incurred I This is the question which it seems to us Congress should ask and the President answer.. To say tlint we are willing to make Peace on fair terms, Ac. is to soy nothing intelligible; no con¬ queror ever hesitated to say tbat. To talk ol our moderation and in the same breath suggest that we expect Mexico to pay our expetises in the War. either in money (which is impossible] or in terri tory at our appraisal, is considerably worse than nothing We insist that it is pressingiy incumbent on ourJExecutive, before he says the word which will consign tbonanudsto a bloody death and thou sands more to life-long ntuniish and helplessness, tostate distinctly irhathr means by favorable terms, and precisely what the terms are on which he will forego farther subjugation and carnage- Is this asking too much? The Country must furnish the men and means; the People must give and take the blows why should they not be allowed to know for what they are to licht ? The President has given his own account at great length of what he has done and why j is it not reasonable tbat he should now tell us just what he means to do, Riid for what reasons1 Why should not both Countries and the World know for what we are contending and how much will satisfy us! Perhaps we need not tight more if we only say suceintly how we will settle without lighting; perhaps neither Country would wish to fight if it knew on what terms the War could be ended It does seem to us that Con gress, before appropriating another dollar, should insist on knowing with what views, to what ends. the War is to be prosecuted Why ahould the Kx ecuhve hesitate to tell BF* Gen. Erasti s Root, who died m our City .n Thursday morniug in his 7 4th year, has played an important part in the political history of our State. Born in Hebron.

H. and devoted some time to school-te-aehing, but str.died law and set tied at Delhi, then in Otaego, now the capital ot Delaware County lu 1798, he was elected to the Assembly of this State, to which he was repeated¬ ly reflected. He was in politics an ardent disciple of George Clinton, and united in the choice of Jet- feragut Electors of President in 1S0O. In ISiM he was elected to CoJkgresa from his District, and re- elected in lSOt», Iii. 15 and '31. serving nine years iaall. In 1SÄ. he waa chosen Lieut. Governor, but. becoming deeply involved in Mr Van Büren s struggle to carry the Electoral Vote of New York for Crawford in IS"-M, he was terribly kbeaten by Qen. Tallmadge in the excited canvass ol" that year, when he was proposed for reflection. He was never afterward a candidate before the People of the whole State. Gen. R. vfaa in Cougresg when the first I'nited States Bank was refused a tveharter. (IStl;) aad. though a vehement .

The bill passed, however, and no practical evil resulted from the provision he so strongly deprecated. In IS32,when this Bank was before Congress for a «»charter. Gen. R. was again a Member, and for the third time waa ecustrained to oppose his party, being now more convinced than ever of the consti- Hitiouality and e*ngsii«6cy pf a Xttiofill StV& He sustained the Rerharter rtronjly disapprove i the Veto and the iubf.eqc.ent Rcmovci ot the De- poaitea, and ceaaed to act with the party who justi¬ fied them. This threw hiiu out of public life until lc3'.\ when he was elected to the Senate hy the Whigs of the Third District, Laving uhk majority ia a poll of some 50,000 votes. Two others were elected at the iuse time, but he drew for the long¬ est term of four years, which he served out and has not since been in public life But he cherished an active and ardent interest in public affairs to the last, and has been one of the most protcar.ent and decided champions of the . Anti-Rent canse. We met him last at Utica, at the Whig State Conven- tian last September, which he attended to arge the nomination of Hon. Ira Harris for Governor. He seemed a* vigorous in mind aad body and as likely to last as at any time since ;-4G..His death was very sudden, produced by an inflammation of the kidneys, with which he was seized while or. his way to visit the family of his son-in-law at Wash ington City. Gen. Rod was a remarkable maa.tail and stout, with srreat physical power and energy.a stanch triend and a good Later.a ready and effect- ive d<-bat*r.well informed confident in his own opinions, trank, zealoos'and reliable. Though an ardent and prominent politician for half a century, he was never an intriguer, and we think u9 man ever accused bin of a mean art. He leaves behind but few who were politicians when he csme on the stage of public life j and if he had somewhat outbved his influence, he had also outlived the en¬ mities which Power always incurs. Peace to his memory ! ¦_ tjy OtTR Yankee Girls appear to the ten dol¬ lar journals the most irrational, abswsj class of mor¬ tals ever heard of.

We are inclined to think that some of them do miss it in coming to the Citiee, We counsel, exhort, entreat every young woman who can get any kind ol an honest livelihood in (he Country, not to come to the Cities in the delusive hope of doing better or living more genteelly here One in a hundred may do so, but the great majority con barely obtain here the means ol existence, while a learful proportion are driven or dragged into ways and haunts compared with which death by starvation is a mercy.

For our part, we are convinced that the moun. tain will not come to Mahomet, charm be never so wisely.' We must gel rid of the notion that it is nothing but 'false ptide' which repels otir young women from domestic service, and look carefully j into the matter, to see if there be not something in the nature of the required service, or in its habitual conditions, which renders it so palpably irksome and revolting. You, Madam, who talk so flippantly of the folly or false pride of our girls, have you ever attempted to put yourself in their place and consider the mat j ter ! Have you ever weighed in the balance s crust und a garret at home with better foed and lodging in the house of a stranger? Have yon ever thought of the difference between doing the most arduous and repulsive work for those you love and who love you. and doing the same in n strange ploce lor those to whom your only bond of attachment is six dollars a month ' Have you «vor considered that the words of reproof and reproach, so easy to utter, are very hard to bear, especially from one whose right so to treat you is a thing of cash and of yesterday f Is the difference between freedom and service nothing to yon ?

Ho.we* to the Rorr.aa Catholic Ch-ircb. Mulberry-st. tor the benefit of the Orphan Society. The tez: was taken from the 1st j chapter of 5t~ John, who in the year W.5 wrote tbia gospel to confute those heretic* who denied the divinity "of Christ, from their isai-ility to cstcpr*h«:i the coodn*s* of God in seeding His owe beloved Son, ecpt&l to UtnseJf m every respect, to redeem mankind and restore him to Hi* favor and mercy, which he had originally lost by hts.firat disobedience. Tins day is the commemoration of the grand and rub'rime mystery of the Incarnation that had been revesdad to the humble snepherds and the jenes of the gorgeous East.a mys¬ tery which had filled the breasts of the Prophets aad Pa¬ triarchs of old with joy. It U the famTmwit cf God's promise to Ev*. It is by the Incarnation of His Son that God hasconferred a dignity on human nature by teaching mankind lo lock up to Him from the trameis of wer i: v Bfe as hj only rood, it i* God s promise of merry to nan consummated, that mercy that iafir.ite Justice had so lone w.thh'-'d nil his fuU pzaishme r.t bad been meted to him. Man felt the evil ejects of his fall in the first fratricid». and earth drank, the blood of the h.-st mur der. He relapsed into idoisrry and other ar^rainaaon*., yet, nrtwrhstanding the depths of sir. and wickedness into which he had fallen, be still carried the remembrance of a sacrifice cr ator.err.ent to appease Infinite Juncce . The premise of man s redemption was transmitted through the Patriarchs. This w»j man's only hope.the promise of God to send a Redeemer who weald rwlcase j him trorn the bonds of sin. The mystery of the birth of Christ is a scandal to the heretic. It was in the form of man that Christ came to redeem man. This was above the heretic's comprehension and narrow understanding. Be acted in accordance with his own comprehension m opposing this grand truth. It was as if two insects en¬ dowed with the power of speech and reason should have aconversstion on astroaomy. One would offer ob¬ jections to what the other said of the principles of sj tronomy. which appeared to bim absurd and silly, be¬ cause he could not understand the intricacies ol this science. So is It with man. who is as a worm in com- prehension.who cannot even ccmprebend bis own ex¬ istence, and who therefore cannot comprehend the sub¬ limity of the Incarnation. Who was there to satisfy God's justice I Man could not. as there wa« no equality between God and man.therefore it required His own ?Oii as the intermediator. J: was Christ's love for us thatcK'ised h:m to comedown fru.-n Hi*heavenly l ather, that by His death fallr n man might gain access to God through His merits, and the true adorers are ti.e fruit* of ihe reparation made by our Saviour. In all the a:age« of Christ's Heavenly career, we see sufficient to draw lorlh "or adoration for the infant Saviour and this adoration is due equally to the Son as to the Father. There were many opposers of this doc¬ trine who arose in the succi. ding ages of Christianity. Among these was n'e.toriiis. ol the four.b century, who made objections to the title "Mother of God" being ap¬ plied to the Blessed Virgin. He contended that Moth¬ er ol Christ" ws- the proper title, a Council was held «I Fpbesu«. which condemned Neetoriu' for broaching this heresy. This condemnation ol liestoriUS was t source of great joy to the primitive Christian*. Man's dignity is nut to be measured by worldly .-i.n aideration. He bears a re^rnblanre to Hod in the lUl- MOrtaÜty ol bis soul; but bvfore the birth of Christ he had descended to a level with the brute creation. It was not only man who derived a benefit from the atone¬ ment of Christ, but woman was a participator ir. the Heavenly benefits. It rai-ed her dimity by a virgin's becoming ti.e mother of the Savior. In conclusion, let this. then, be a day o! joy separated Irom guilt.the joy. of charity and love to man.the joy of Imitating the ex ample oi a crucified God. For those who wish, every thing is possible in the love of God. Maryland Slavery Distcatused -Toinperanc-e, d<* Corres] ondence ol The Tribune. I:*lt;mohk. I>ec. -.'-J. lf?4fi. H. ti rf.ki.f v.

To every heart imbued with the least portion of philanthropy, the present aspect of things in Balti¬ more must be liiithly cheering; a complete revolu¬ tion in public opinion is being happily effected. Sonic weeks ago the question, .¦ will the abolition ol Shivery in Maryland tend to the prosperity of the Stnte '" was proposed in a debating society composed of highly intelligent men. While the. negative, nre not deficient in ingenuity and great tact, it is acknowledged that fee affirmative nave employed mi amount of incontrovertible argument that lias thrown a Bood'of light mi this hitherto one¬ sided question in Maryland. To such an extent is tlie public mind excited that the dltcossion, by common consent has been adjourned from day to day and is likely to continue for several week*. On last Sabbath morning, for Ibe first time, I attend) d the Methodist Church, corner: ol Charles andFayette sts.; the preacher (Rar, Mr. Codec) took tor bis text Mathew,'7th chapter, 12th verse; generally termed "lAr Gallien Butt;" never did watchman or. ihe tower more faithfully acqnithimsell of bis duties. My heart glowed with rapture as the "man of God hypothetical!/ re versed the relative positions ol slave and slaveholder. The masterly effort rent to atoms the ilinny covering with which prolfsstng Christians could posribty Invest the inhuman and unnatural practice; while the chaste and graphic appeak to every man's conscience in the sight ol God thrilled through every nerve. This, before a congregation regarded a* the "upper ten" oi Haiti more, is indeed " A change come o'er the spirit of our dream.'

He pass¬ ed a high euiogium on the " Parent Society" of your city his appeal to the Balumoreans. and his allusion to poor Kinggold, were truly eloquent, while his applies tion of the associations of his " nouniain homt." called forth one burst of applause from every mouth und drew a tear from many a female eye. 1 understand Mr. Uuinn goes to Annapolis, by invita¬ tion he has enkindled a dame here that I trust, will not be soon extinguished.

I take the liberty of addressing you respecting the cause of the late wreck ol the steamboat Atlantic. hoped that sonic une among the survivors who bad charge of the steam engine, would have liiven the public a full statement of the facts in relation to the bursliag of the j " <trnn ekctt" or " 'tram ptpt," for the published accounts of tue disast* r mention both Without -tating say cir- cumsta*..-es wbicb can euablc even a person acquainted with such matters t* determine which part save war. This, however, is not r. rj important in solving the ques- -' tion, " Jfftiif ims tie /mural ramr of ihr HiOMey f". To this, perhaps, ninety.nine in every hundred would reply. Tiefurious rtorm. But this certainly is not a sat- ialnrtory answer. The Atlantic herselt experienced no extraordinary difficulty on account ol the Storni until her motive power ceased to act: and nearly or quite all tin- steamboat* about New Vurk and the Sound con. tinued their regular trips during the first eight hours which elapsed between the explosion and the i.nal de- itruction (tt the vessel. Nor was the bursting of steatn chest or steam pipe the prrmarn cause ol the wreck, for that, ol Itself, produced no injury to the vessel.she was just as sound after the explosion us before it.just us able to withstand the force of the storm as she would have been if the eogine hid stopped tor want ot coal to feed the tire*. The primary cause, then, of the disaster, or that which gme upportuuity tor all the other existing, or subseij'.ent causes to ai t. was, beyond all controversy, a very great and Improper pressure ol »team It msy perhaps he said that ÜM Steam chest war weak and Insufficient.that it was in$nßeirnt to withstand the pressuie to which It was subjected Is proved by the event. but that it was weak is not shown, nor can it reasonably be so interred It was probably as strong us that putt is usually made by the same makers, and only happened to bo weakei than the boilers were ut the time of the axpljelon. A simple statement ot the case then is. that an Im¬ proper pressure ol steam caused an explosion which disabled the engine. The engine being useless and the ancburi- insufficient, the vessel was at the mercy of the wind. The wind drove the vessel upon a rocky shore- where »he went to pi,and the passengers were drowned. This event adds another proof to the many we have heretofore had of the importance of building and managing steam engine* in such w»y as to .. make iiso./irriiv seHOfy 'lire and take a bond of Fair" tor their safk and regular pertormanre of the work to which they are applied and especially when that work is of such character that even a slight failure may place hun drcds of valuable lives in jeonardy.

Prison Association : Respected Friends: The Philadelphia Society for Alleviating the Miseries of Public Prisons, gratefully acknowledges the reception of your kind and courteous invitation to attend the anniversary meeting of your fie nevolent and useful Association, to be held in the city of New-York on the thld of this month. They have accord¬ ingly appointed three ar their officers to proceed to your city, to congratulate and counsel with you.namely Prof. C D. Cleveland and Win. i'. Foalke and fleorge W. Smith. Ksqrs. They have heard with increased gratification the re- suit of your zealous labors in the improvement of pris- on*, and in th . attention to prisoners alter their discharge, Fellow laborer» in the same cause, they trust that your j efforts may continue to be prosecuted with energy and crowned with success. J The reparation «f prisoners from contaminating inffu- ences. and carefully training them by means of jadi- clous instruction, form a portion cf the discipline of every prison where reformation is regarded. The r,c:'.*- delpina Society lor Alleviating the Miseries ot Public !'ri*ons more than fifty years ago. was convinced that. as evil association corrupt* good morals, so such as so ciaticn would be deleterious, in increased measure, within the walls of n prison. They inferred, that a ca reer in sin mizbt be retared, and in many cases ter¬ minated, ay removing ,i» qfender from die society of the ricked, and associating km exclusively sriiA 'Jit intelligent and virrnoia. They bare never desired, much less at- tempted the separaaon of a prisoner from all society, nor has such a plan eTer been sanctioned at any time by the Legislature jf Pennsylvania. They are aware that man. as a social being, requires intercourse with his fellow men. and that he also require* retirement to his chamber.' where he may commune with his con- science and his Maker alone. They cannot conceive that intercourse, either verbal, or by signs or looks, wtth ' a herd of corrupt convicts can be beneficial, far less es- seasa! to either the bodily, mental, or spiritual health of a prisoner while in confinement. They cannot con¬ ceive that society owes it as a duty to convicts to intro- duce them to each other to compel them to form an j acquaintance which, once formed, may never be forgot- i ten: aa acquaintance which may extisguAt. in meir j souls ibv last, small lingering spark ot self-respect; which inevitably subjects the penitent to tie «ad conse- quences of recosmitioB. and aimoet inevitably establishes ! in the bosom of society a permanent band of disciplined offenders, bound together by a commuaion of know- ledge of the persons and character of each other. Such are some of the reason* which induced them to ^ina-oduce the Separate ArsKsc to the favorable notice of the puslie and all taeir'experience has confirmed their opinions. The term solitary ceairiement ha* been as imfortuaaie misnomer, Le* the prisoners is well-rega- iated prisons on the Separate system, have at least as much intercourse, not indeed witn each other but with i these who are Annotated and permitted to v-jutäem. as may be fosi.J in prisons on. tbo Associated System and far more taaa is admired to exist in the latter by ttmay of it* *upportera.

Some acrice of Joel Barlow, author of The Hasty Pudding.' may be interesting to our readers. He was. born at Readme. Fairfield County. Con¬ necticut, i- 1757. He earered Dartmouth College in 1T74. but soon removed to Yale College, where he gradcated in 177?, heir-..* ranked the first of his t".a.-s for talents and learning During the vaca¬ tions he more than once repaired as a volunteer to the Camp. havicg four' brothers iu the American Army He was preset.: at several skirmishes, and foudit bravely at the Battle of White Plains. After leaving College he commenced the study ot the law but being urged to qualify himself for the office of Chaplain, he studied divinity, and. being soon licensed to preach, he served in the army as Cha-.daiti until the return of peace, when he re¬ sumed the study of the law also edited a paper at Hartford. In 1737 he published his great poem of .The Vision of Columbus,' and in l'O? lie revised and enlarged it. repobuahing it :a a splendid vol¬ atile, under the title of The Columbiad In 17S5 he published a revised edition of Watts's Psalms and Hymns. 'which lie prepared at the request of the Congregational Clergy of Connecticut. In 1788 Barlow wer.: to Europe, as the agent of the Scioto Land Company, but ignorant of the fraudulent de- signs of that concern. From England he crossed over to France, where his zeal 'i-r republicanism induced him to take part in the French Revolution, connecting himself with the Girondists, OMnoderate party. In 1791 he we::t to England, and published the tirst pat of Iiis 'Advice to the Privileged Or¬ ders.' in which lie attacked the feudal system, na¬ tional Church, and other British institutions. In 17'iJ he published a poem called 'The Conspiracy nf Eines, a work which then obtained for him pop¬ ularity and fume. The French National Conven¬ tion conferred ou him the righti of a French citizen, He now iix.7,1 his residence in France, and accom¬ panied n deputation to Savoy. ti> organize it as a Department of the French Republic At this time he wrote an address to the people of Piedmont, in¬ citing theni to throw oil'their allegiance to the mon¬ arch under whom they then served. In Savoy lie also composed his Hasty Padding,' n mock didac¬ tic poem, the most popular of his poetical produc¬ tions. After his return to I'aris, lie translated Vol- ney's Ruins but his time was principally occupied by commereial speculations, in which be acquired a large property. Shocked by the atrocities of the French Revolution, lie took but little part in |>o!itics. In 1795 General Washington appointed Barlow Consul at Algiers, with powers to negotiate treat les of peace with the Barbary powers. He soon j concluded treaties with Algiers ami Tripoli, reacu- ing many American citizens from slavery. In 1791 he resigned his Consulship and returned to Paris, j where he purchased a splendid noose ami lived for [ some years in a sumptuous manner In 1803 be I S..M his » State in France and returned to the Uni I ted Stales, after un absence of seventeen years, He purchased n beautiful place near Georgetown, but within the limits of Washington City tins es tablishment he called " Kalorama."

We are happy to End, as will be seen by the fol¬ lowing quotation, thut Governor AlKE.v of South Carolina, iu his recent Message to the Legislature, has recommended that a liberal appropriation be made toward a Geological Survey oi that State; and that the sum of'#500 be also granted to Prof. HoLBROOK, to aid in tin- publication of his valuable work on Ichthyology, which he lias for so long a time been preparing. We have no doubt that South Carolina will, by such liberal ucts, bring forth its valuable treasures hidden in the bowels of the oartii. and in which it almost certainly abounds. In speaking of South Carolina College the Gov emor says. I am sure it will nut be considered unreasonable to suggest that a small appropriation ot $000.in the shape. of a subscription.be made, to aasist Professor llolbroi.lt putting bis work to press, and laying it betöre the public. Such a book deserves to be placed in the library of the State, as a testimonial ut the talent and energy of one of its most scienlitic citizens. Among many subjects ol importance, claiming the attention o'" the Legislature, there is none ut greater iu- threat or of higher magnitude, than the Geological and Agricultural Survey of the State. So much has been said and written on this subject.and the matter has been so frequently and ably discussed, not only in the Gen¬ eral Assembly ol the State, but in the public journals of thi country, it would seem an act of supererogation j on my part to add anything to support it. Vet f con¬ ceive it ray duty to urge you to the continuation of this most valuable undertaking, not merely as toe only Ii,.-ans of perfecting what has been so wisely com- menced, but as tending to develop and bring to prutita- ble availability, the bidden treasures and resources which lie emboweled in our native soil, and giving a practible utility to that which, when analyzed and in- vestigated, by the hand of Science, must freely contrib¬ ute to the wealth and prosper.ty of our people. To such a work.promising such results.the Legislature cannot be inditierent. and I would inviu? special atten- t:ou to the report ot Mr Tuomi-y, as artording inior- inuliuu in regard to the details connected witi. it_ The labors uf this ger.tleinun have already been fnnttu! In advantages, but they are as nothing com¬ pared with the ,r-c- er... -. which may reasonably be anticipated from an extention and prolongation of his I its. South Carolina should not be tardy in em ulating her sister r-utes. in adorning assistance, when¬ ever it is needed, tor the pro-ecudon ut scientific cnter- prises, the mure especially when they bid fair to ex<*r- j eise such an influence ou her future destinies, and I trust no false notions of economy will interfere to pre ent her from prosecuting, with vigor that which is now making sucn favorable progress. I would respectfully suggest that a new professorship oi 'ieoloey and Agriculture) be created, as a most de- slrahle and important addition to those already estab- lished. thereby affording information on subjects closely connected with the industry and pursuits of a large por- tion of our People. Meantime we must dann for ourselves the merit of having first taken the lead. New-York 1237 made the tirst appropriation, aad selected its corps ofaa-.anj. assigning to them their ditEerent depart- menu. The reauit has been that very important discoveries have been made in Mineralogy as well as in the various branches of Natural History. See works published by the State under the superin¬ tendence ofDr. Dekay, Emmous and others. The amount already paid by the State exceeds S.'löO.OöO. and the labor is not yet completed, and will in all probability require a cous-derabie amount more before its termination. Not only is the high > character of New York raised in the estimation of its people by such liberal acts of its Legislature, but its reputation abroad for wealth and scier.ee is greatly euhance.J. We cannot, therefore, but re¬ gard the liberai sentiments as expressed by Gov. Aiken in his message, as both honorable to himself and the State over which he presides, and we sin¬ cerely hope that as beneficial results may attead their efforts. Ooart Calendar.-Mo»o»v.

Dr. C. than proceeded at some length to contrast the early and the later life of the Saviour with what is too often the dis¬ obedient and rebellious conduct of hi* children.and while addressing his remarks particularly to the chf.d ren took occasion to point out to them in an energetic manner, their duty toward God and man.

tST Remember the Meeting tor the FamishingPeople of Ireland at Tammany HaJI to night.It is a City Meeting7, without distinction of rrced

er party and if anything shall be said or done cal¬

culated to offend any person who may attend, the

circn.nstance will be regretted by none more heart¬

ily than those who have issued the call. For once,

an opportunity is proffered to all to evince prac.iically their sympathy lor au unfortunate and suf¬fering People What generous heait will refuse

to respond to the appeal1Tiie War »villi .Mexico.

That the accounts which have reached us of the

anarchy and helplessness ol Mexico linvc beenrgrosslv exaggerated.that Santa Anna has collectcii a numerous, determined and tolerably w ell

provided army at Sun Luis Potosi. oml will maken desperate standJthere ii assailed.ami that (Jen

Tavlc foresees great difficulty and peril in the at¬

tempt to prosecute his march to the Capita! from

.Monterey and Saltillo by way ol Pan Luis afore-

laid.so much may he considered settled by the

recent advices. That Gen. T. has positively desiatcd from and abandoned the idea of advancing far¬ther on his present line of invasion, because of thescarcity of water, the difficulties of the route, amithe imposing stand of the Mexicans, is ot b ast a

matter ol inference, since he is not the man to proclaim it if such were the fact We infer, however,from the unusual and feverish activity now char¬

acterizing the movements of the Wor Departmenttiud the pr»mptneo with which troops and Appliesare dispatched to the <!u!f. that it is understood at

Washington thai our troops have hard ugutinginprospect, ami tlint the Wor is not u holiday exoreise, to be setileii by merely breaking an Armisticeand orderinsi an advance to 'the Halls of the Mon-tezumns We apprehend that the victors rit Mon

terey have n more correct idea of Mexican1 prowessthan formerly, ami that Gen. Taylor will not leada column ot 7 to lu.OOO men through perilous moun¬

obviously intent on assembling in Mexico an armyof Twenty to Thirty Thousniid effectives, lliirwhich not less than Forty Thousand must be mut¬

tered into sen ice hoping Co crash Santa Anna andMexico by one powerful, well directed blow. Such,as we understand it. is the meaning ol recentmovements on all sides.Now to concentrate Thirty Thousand, or even

Twenty Thousand, fighting men a( any point as furWest as Monterey or Tampico, provided with themeans of advancing to Pan Luis Potosi and thereattui'k.m- ti-.iiitu Anna, is ait undertaking tor whichmillions of money will be required, and Congressmust speedily authorize new Loans and extraor

dinary disbursements. To say nothing of the ine¬vitably great and deplorable loss of life, it will cost

not less than'Five Millions of Dollars tu follow SantaAnna to his present stronghold and successfully at¬

tack him there. And for what shail this heavy ad¬dition to our National Debt be incurred I This isthe question which it seems to us Congress shouldask and the President answer..

To say tlint we are willing to make Peace on fairterms, Ac. is to soy nothing intelligible; no con¬

queror ever hesitated to say tbat. To talk ol our

moderation and in the same breath suggest that weexpect Mexico to pay our expetises in the War.either in money (which is impossible] or in territory at our appraisal, is considerably worse thannothing We insist that it is pressingiy incumbenton ourJExecutive, before he says the word whichwill consign tbonanudsto a bloody death and thousands more to life-long ntuniish and helplessness,tostate distinctly irhathr means by favorable terms,and precisely what the terms are on which he willforego farther subjugation and carnage- Is thisasking too much? The Country must furnish themen and means; the People must give and takethe blows why should they not be allowed toknow for what they are to licht ? The President hasgiven his own account at great length of what hehas done and why j is it not reasonable tbat heshould now tell us just what he means to do, Riid forwhat reasons1 Why should not both Countries andthe World know for what we are contending andhow much will satisfy us! Perhaps we need not

tight more if we only say suceintly how we willsettle without lighting; perhaps neither Countrywould wish to fight if it knew on what terms theWar could be ended It does seem to us that Congress, before appropriating another dollar, shouldinsist on knowing with what views, to what ends.the War is to be prosecuted Why ahould the Kxecuhve hesitate to tell

BF* Gen. Erasti s Root, who died m our City.n Thursday morniug in his 7 4th year, has playedan important part in the political history of our

State. Born in Hebron. Conn, in 1T7S, he graduated at Dartmouth College. N. H. and devoted some

time to school-te-aehing, but str.died law and settied at Delhi, then in Otaego, now the capital otDelaware County lu 1798, he was elected to theAssembly of this State, to which he was repeated¬ly reflected. He was in politics an ardent discipleof George Clinton, and united in the choice of Jet-feragut Electors of President in 1S0O. In ISiM hewas elected to CoJkgresa from his District, and re-

elected in lSOt», Iii. 15 and '31. serving nine yearsiaall. In 1SÄ. he waa chosen Lieut. Governor,but. becoming deeply involved in Mr Van Büren s

struggle to carry the Electoral Vote of New Yorkfor Crawford in IS"-M, he was terribly kbeaten byQen. Tallmadge in the excited canvass ol" that year,when he was proposed for reflection. He was

never afterward a candidate before the People ofthe whole State.Gen. R. vfaa in Cougresg when the first I'nited

States Bank was refused a tveharter. (IStl;) aad.though a vehement .

The billpassed, however, and no practical evil resultedfrom the provision he so strongly deprecated. In

IS32,when this Bank was before Congress for a«»charter. Gen. R. was again a Member, and forthe third time waa ecustrained to oppose his party,being now more convinced than ever of the consti-Hitiouality and e*ngsii«6cy pf a Xttiofill StV&

He sustained the Rerharter rtronjly disapprove ithe Veto and the iubf.eqc.ent Rcmovci ot the De-

Whigs of the Third District, Laving uhk majority ia

a poll of some 50,000 votes. Two others were

elected at the iuse time, but he drew for the long¬

est term of four years, which he served out and hasnot since been in public life But he cherished an

active and ardent interest in public affairs to the

last, and has been one of the most protcar.ent and

decided champions of the . Anti-Rent canse. We

met him last at Utica, at the Whig State Conven-tian last September, which he attended to arge the

nomination of Hon. Ira Harris for Governor. He

seemed a* vigorous in mind aad body and as likelyto last as at any time since ;-4G..His death was

very sudden, produced by an inflammation of the

kidneys, with which he was seized while or. his

opinions, trank, zealoos'and reliable. Though an

ardent and prominent politician for half a century,he was never an intriguer, and we think u9 man

but few who were politicians when he csme on

the stage of public life j and if he had somewhatoutbved his influence, he had also outlived the en¬

Catholic Ch-ircb. Mulberry-st. tor the benefit of the

Orphan Society. The tez: was taken from the 1st jchapter of 5t~ John, who in the year W.5 wrote

tbia gospel to confute those heretic* who denied the

divinity "of Christ, from their isai-ility to cstcpr*h«:ithe coodn*s* of God in seeding His owe beloved Son,

ecpt&l to UtnseJf m every respect, to redeem mankind

and restore him to Hi* favor and mercy, which he had

originally lost by hts.firat disobedience. Tins day is the

commemoration of the grand and rub'rime mystery of

the Incarnation that had been revesdad to the humble

snepherds and the jenes of the gorgeous East.a mys¬

tery which had filled the breasts of the Prophets aad Pa¬

triarchs of old with joy. It U the famTmwit cf God's

promise to Ev*. It is by the Incarnation of His Son that

God hasconferred a dignity on human nature by teachingmankind lo lock up to Him from the trameis of wer i: v Bfe

as hj only rood, it i* God s promise of merry to nan

consummated, that mercy that iafir.ite Justice had so

lone w.thh'-'d nil his fuU pzaishme r.t bad been meted

to him. Man felt the evil ejects of his fall in the first

fratricid». and earth drank, the blood of the h.-st mur

der. He relapsed into idoisrry and other ar^rainaaon*.,

yet, nrtwrhstanding the depths of sir. and wickedness

into which he had fallen, be still carried the remembranceof a sacrifice cr ator.err.ent to appease Infinite Juncce.

The premise of man s redemption was transmitted

through the Patriarchs. This w»j man's only hope.thepromise of God to send a Redeemer who weald rwlcase jhim trorn the bonds of sin. The mystery of the birth of

Christ is a scandal to the heretic. It was in the form of

man that Christ came to redeem man. This was above

the heretic's comprehension and narrow understanding.Be acted in accordance with his own comprehension mopposing this grand truth. It was as if two insects en¬

dowed with the power of speech and reason shouldhave aconversstion on astroaomy. One would offer ob¬

jections to what the other said of the principles of sj

tronomy. which appeared to bim absurd and silly, be¬

cause he could not understand the intricacies ol thisscience. So is It with man. who is as a worm in com-

prehension.who cannot even ccmprebend bis own ex¬

istence, and who therefore cannot comprehend the sub¬

limity of the Incarnation. Who was there to satisfyGod's justice I Man could not. as there wa« no equalitybetween God and man.therefore it required His own

?Oii as the intermediator. J: was Christ's love for us

thatcK'ised h:m to comedown fru.-n Hi*heavenly l ather,that by His death fallr n man might gain access to Godthrough His merits, and the true adorers are ti.e fruit*of ihe reparation made by our Saviour.

In all the a:age« of Christ's Heavenly career, we see

sufficient to draw lorlh "or adoration for the infantSaviour and this adoration is due equally to the Son as

to the Father. There were many opposers of this doc¬trine who arose in the succi. ding ages of Christianity.Among these was n'e.toriiis. ol the four.b century, whomade objections to the title "Mother of God" being ap¬plied to the Blessed Virgin. He contended that Moth¬er ol Christ" ws- the proper title, a Council was held«I Fpbesu«. which condemned Neetoriu' for broachingthis heresy. This condemnation ol liestoriUS was t

source of great joy to the primitive Christian*.Man's dignity is nut to be measured by worldly .-i.n

aideration. He bears a re^rnblanre to Hod in the lUl-MOrtaÜty ol bis soul; but bvfore the birth of Christ hehad descended to a level with the brute creation. Itwas not only man who derived a benefit from the atone¬

ment of Christ, but woman was a participator ir. theHeavenly benefits. It rai-ed her dimity by a virgin'sbecoming ti.e mother of the Savior. In conclusion, letthis. then, be a day o! joy separated Irom guilt.the joy.of charity and love to man.the joy of Imitating the example oi a crucified God. For those who wish, everything is possible in the love of God.

lessen their tre.juency and as I presume the same

praiseworthy motives still intiuenee its proceedings. I

take the liberty of addressing you respecting the cause

of the late wreck ol the steamboat Atlantic. hopedthat sonic une among the survivors who bad charge ofthe steam engine, would have liiven the public a fullstatement of the facts in relation to the bursliag of the

ialnrtory answer. The Atlantic herselt experienced no

that, ol Itself, produced no injury to the vessel.shewas just as sound after the explosion us before it.justus able to withstand the force of the storm as shewould have been if the eogine hid stopped tor want ot

They inferred, that a career in sin mizbt be retared, and in many cases ter¬minated, ay removing ,i» qfender from die society of thericked, and associating km exclusively sriiA 'Jit intelligentand virrnoia. They bare never desired, much less at-

tempted the separaaon of a prisoner from all society,nor has such a plan eTer been sanctioned at any time

by the Legislature jf Pennsylvania. They are awarethat man. as a social being, requires intercourse withhis fellow men. and that he also require* retirement tohis chamber.' where he may commune with his con-science and his Maker alone. They cannot conceivethat intercourse, either verbal, or by signs or looks, wtth

'a herd of corrupt convicts can be beneficial, far less es-seasa! to either the bodily, mental, or spiritual healthof a prisoner while in confinement. They cannot con¬ceive that society owes it as a duty to convicts to intro-duce them to each other to compel them to form an

j acquaintance which, once formed, may never be forgot- iten: aa acquaintance which may extisguAt. in meir

Army He was preset.: at several skirmishes, and

foudit bravely at the Battle of White Plains.After leaving College he commenced the study ot

the law but being urged to qualify himself for the

office of Chaplain, he studied divinity, and. beingsoon licensed to preach, he served in the army as

Cha-.daiti until the return of peace, when he re¬

sumed the study of the law also edited a paper at

Hartford. In 1737 he published his great poem of

.The Vision of Columbus,' and in l'O? lie revisedand enlarged it. repobuahing it :a a splendid vol¬

atile, under the title of The Columbiad In 17S5he published a revised edition of Watts's Psalmsand Hymns. 'which lie prepared at the request ofthe Congregational Clergy of Connecticut. In 1788Barlow wer.: to Europe, as the agent of the SciotoLand Company, but ignorant of the fraudulent de-

signs of that concern. From England he crossedover to France, where his zeal 'i-r republicanisminduced him to take part in the French Revolution,connecting himself with the Girondists, OMnoderateparty. In 1791 he we::t to England, and publishedthe tirst pat of Iiis 'Advice to the Privileged Or¬

tional Church, and other British institutions. In

17'iJ he published a poem called 'The Conspiracynf Eines, a work which then obtained for him pop¬ularity and fume. The French National Conven¬tion conferred ou him the righti of a French citizen,He now iix.7,1 his residence in France, and accom¬

ney's Ruins but his time was principally occupiedby commereial speculations, in which be acquireda large property. Shocked by the atrocities of theFrench Revolution, lie took but little part in |>o!itics.

In 1795 General Washington appointed BarlowConsul at Algiers, with powers to negotiate treat

les of peace with the Barbary powers. He soon

Force oi Example).We are happy to End, as will be seen by the fol¬

lowing quotation, thut Governor AlKE.v of SouthCarolina, iu his recent Message to the Legislature,has recommended that a liberal appropriation bemade toward a Geological Survey oi that State;and that the sum of'#500 be also granted to Prof.HoLBROOK, to aid in tin- publication of his valuablework on Ichthyology, which he lias for so long a

time been preparing. We have no doubt thatSouth Carolina will, by such liberal ucts, bring forthits valuable treasures hidden in the bowels of theoartii. and in which it almost certainly abounds.

In speaking of South Carolina College the Govemor says.

I am sure it will nut be considered unreasonable to

suggest that a small appropriation ot $000.in the shape.of a subscription.be made, to aasist Professor llolbroi.ltputting bis work to press, and laying it betöre the public.Such a book deserves to be placed in the library of theState, as a testimonial ut the talent and energy of one

of its most scienlitic citizens.Among many subjects ol importance, claiming the

attention o'" the Legislature, there is none ut greater iu-threat or of higher magnitude, than the Geological andAgricultural Survey of the State. So much has beensaid and written on this subject.and the matter hasbeen so frequently and ably discussed, not only in the Gen¬eral Assembly ol the State, but in the public journals ofthi country, it would seem an act of supererogation

j on my part to add anything to support it. Vet f con¬ceive it ray duty to urge you to the continuation of thismost valuable undertaking, not merely as toe onlyIi,.-ans of perfecting what has been so wisely com-

menced, but as tending to develop and bring to prutita-ble availability, the bidden treasures and resources

which lie emboweled in our native soil, and giving a

practible utility to that which, when analyzed and in-

vestigated, by the hand of Science, must freely contrib¬ute to the wealth and prosper.ty of our people. Tosuch a work.promising such results.the Legislaturecannot be inditierent. and I would inviu? special atten-t:ou to the report ot Mr Tuomi-y, as artording inior-inuliuu in regard to the details connected witi. it_The labors uf this ger.tleinun have already beenfnnttu! In advantages, but they are as nothing com¬

pared with the ,r-c- er... -. which may reasonablybe anticipated from an extention and prolongation ofhis I its. South Carolina should not be tardy in em

ulating her sister r-utes. in adorning assistance, when¬ever it is needed, tor the pro-ecudon ut scientific cnter-prises, the mure especially when they bid fair to ex<*r-

j eise such an influence ou her future destinies, and Itrust no false notions of economy will interfere to preent her from prosecuting, with vigor that which isnow making sucn favorable progress.

I would respectfully suggest that a new professorshipoi 'ieoloey and Agriculture) be created, as a most de-slrahle and important addition to those already estab-lished. thereby affording information on subjects closelyconnected with the industry and pursuits of a large por-tion of our People.Meantime we must dann for ourselves the merit

ofhavingfirst taken the lead. New-York 1237made the tirst appropriation, aad selected its corpsofaa-.anj. assigning to them their ditEerent depart-menu. The reauit has been that very importantdiscoveries have been made in Mineralogy as wellas in the various branches of Natural History. Seeworks published by the State under the superin¬tendence ofDr. Dekay, Emmous and others. Theamount already paid by the State exceedsS.'löO.OöO. and the labor is not yet completed, andwill in all probability require a cous-derabie amountmore before its termination. Not only is the high

> character of New York raised in the estimation ofits people by such liberal acts of its Legislature,but its reputation abroad for wealth and scier.ee is

greatly euhance.J. We cannot, therefore, but re¬

gard the liberai sentiments as expressed by Gov.Aiken in his message, as both honorable to himselfand the State over which he presides, and we sin¬cerely hope that as beneficial results may atteadtheir efforts.

designed to jive them, as it were, a Sabbath School les¬

son that would be found in the Od chapter of Luke, fromthe-list verse to the close.in which is embodied all

we know of the childhood of the Saviour. Dr. C. than

proceeded at some length to contrast the early and the

later life of the Saviour with what is too often the dis¬

obedient and rebellious conduct of hi* children.andwhile addressing his remarks particularly to the chf.dren took occasion to point out to them in an energeticmanner, their duty toward God and man.
