But after a very attentive examination of the process of reasoning employed, we believe that we have been able to detect a fatal error, which completely upsets all the conclusions attempted to be drawn from these spiritual statistics. The Colonel ‘akes it for granted, that all the communi- cants—all ihe professing sons and daughters of the | holy mother church, are of equal value—of equal | ‘it—of equal moral importance. This is the | fatal error. But let us proceed cautiously, and with “thot thoughtful and careful deliberation, which the delicacy of this abstruse problem render necessary | in order to its sound and just solution. One star | differeth from another in glory. That, we be- lieve, is an axiom that will not be de- nied. One oyster contains more gelatinous sub- stance then another—will the Colonel deny that?— ft he do we give him an authority—Downing’s Re- ports, vol. LXVII, see, 4. p 22, 23. Now let us pro- | ceed. On the same principles, one saint is of great. | er value than another. Is not this a clear establish ed principle? {t is repeatedly asserted in the Scrip- tures, and illustrated in a variety of methods. Now we think our readers begin to see daylight on this subject. May not the eight communicants of Grace Church, Prattsville, far outweigh the two hundred and seventy-five communicants of Grace Church, New York? That is even supposing that the whole batch are saints! There again comes up | another delicate question. However, we do not | deem it necessary to the practical purpose of the ar- | gument to enter into that. But we insist upon it that the saints in the country are assuredly much more valuable in this statistical analysis than the saints in the town. The city is full of corrupting in- | fluence. The sons of men,with their daughters, and wives of their bosoms, go to the elegant church in the city more to “‘show off,” and to thank God that they are not like the poor publicans; but in the vil- lage and country church, far away from the crowd- ed and wicked marts and great cities of the earth, the worshippers go to commune with heaven. Who will venture to say that these same eight saints of Prattsville, on whom Colonel Webb places so low a value, are sufficient to outweigh all’the crowds who throng the fashionable churches of New York on a | fine Sunday? ft will thus be seen that we have completely de | molished the specious reasoning of the Courier, and | that after all, the question as to the decision of the | on the case of Bishop Onderdonk, stands | pretty much as it did before the Colonel applied to it | his ingenious system of spiritual statistics | Heap Quvarrers or Wir any Hemor. —Hull, the keeper of the elegant and cozy new establish- ment in West Broadway, called “the Mutual,” is | absolutely run down with customers, and his place | is now the head quarters of wit, humour and philo- | sophy in the fitth ward.

The military power of this tribe has been long since broken, and it isa matter of but little consequence whether they remain at peace or at war with our Government. Wo have been nota little amused recently, to notice the exaggerated accounts published in the northern pap: ra, pecting the formidable numbers and the prowess of this perfidious andimbecile tribe.

The Comanches, as far back | ‘a8 1826, could not concentrate at any cne point more then 1300 warriors, and the tribe has n 0 much reduced by constant war with the Mexicans and Texians within the last tive years, that they have not been able to muster more than 400 or 500 warriors in any of their expeditions.

Scott. The name of Mr. Scott has been long before the public as a candidate for dramatic honors—and the loud and judi- cious applause bestowed on his performances, together with the frequent and unsolicited notices of the public press, have rendered him somewhat celebrated in the arduous and responsible path he has chosen. A more | versatile actor is nowhere to be found. In melo-dramatic characters he is without a rival, while his personation of Richard, just night, stamps him as a Shakspearian of the first order. The performance throughout was charac- terized by good taste, deep study, and close attention to the secret springs ot humanaction. The soliloquy in the first act was finely rendered, and the wooing scene with Lady Anne, well conceived and capitally executed. The gnawinge of conscience beautifully depicted in sed the latter scenes—and the death, such as that of a usur- r, murderer and traitor, might be sup; to be. ‘The cearth of dramatic talent now- 8 has caused the elevation of several minor performers into a rank and station fer above their real merits, while old ‘avor- ites and sterling actors, who have been long before the public, have been oftentimes deserted for the moment, and forgotten in the furer created by the first appear- ance of some fresh novelty.
