Patriot, a series of ‘nion mecting held at that place, in ion of John Brown, in making his y into Virginia, was condemned in most itter terms, and all the sympathizers with such persons were denounced as traitors Mr. Eliot, of Mass., desired to have the call for the meeting read. Mr. Cobb stated the call was not in the paper. He di ed to know if these resolutions repre- sented the sentiments of the people of that dis- trict. Mr. Eliot said that the gentleman, in having those Union-loving resolutions read, introduced nothing new to the delegation from Massachusetts nor to the citizens of that State.

Mr. Cobb was glad to know that such Unton- loving sentiments as were contained in those res- olutions were entertained by the people of the North. If this meeting had been h@d io any other State than Massachusetts he should not have had the resolutions read, but coming from that State he thoug bt they were worthy otivce.

D7" Lavater and his work on Physiognomy have so long taken their place among the fixed stars of science, that it is almost startling to see in the English literary papers, an advertisemen’ from his daughter, Madame Lavater, at Zurich, offering for sale as ‘‘a Memorial of her her,”” his silver-mounted Medicine Chest and Instru- ments, to relieve her own distressed circum- stances That she should be so far reduced, is a scandal to the scientific world, whi be remedied.
