THE ILLUSTRATED HISTORY OF THE MBXICAN WAR. On or about the twenty-fifth of next month, we shall publish a grand Pictorial Holidey Herald, which will be the most beautiful, as well as the most valuable and interesting pictorial sheet, ever issued from this estab- lishment. It will be a complete Illustrated History of the Mexi- con War, and will contain engravings representing the appearance of every town after its eapture, from the taking of Matamoras to the reduction of the City of Mexteo itself, including battle scenes, sketches of en- gagements with the guerillas and regular Mexican army | from the commencement of the war to the very day of publication, without omitting one. It would be useless to dilate at any length on the value of a sheet like this—we will only assure our read- ers that the Pictorial Holiday Herald will be such as wo represent it—a perfect pictorial history of the Mexi- can war, and the most valuable sheet ever issued from this establishment. It will be well for agents and others who wish to pur- chase to sell again, to give their orders as early as pornible. ‘The price will be 6% cents per single cepy, or $4 per hundred, REVIVE YOUR BROKEN DOWN HORSES.

Nov. 19} Ma.—We call the at- tention of the press of the Sta‘e, to h will be found in snother column. It emanates from dis- tin; men of all parties, who have duly considered the (portance, nay, necensity, of the movement, and who are to stand with it or fall with it. What- ever may be their party predilection, they are satisfied that Gen. Taylor is the only southern man who can be elected ; and thaton his election hangs the [heded tion of the Union; and with that belief they cheerfully lay down their party preferences on the altar of their country: they go for him as a southern man with Amer- ican ings—as @ republican of the school of the old who will —— the compromises of the Consti- ution, and will administer the governmeet, as he soyn, with an eye to the well-being ef “the whole country,” and on prinetples which will again unite it as of old, as a band of brothers. It is to be hoped that the press of the State will pub- lish the "address, and that those, especially, favorable to the election of Gen. Taylor, will at once put their shoul- ders to the wheel and with an united effort urge on the movement A card of invitation to the great mass meet- ing on the 8th of January, will soon be issued by the committee. The adjourned Taylor meeting held last night, owing to the inclemency of the evening, was net #o numerous- ly attended as on Tuesday night ; there was neverthe- lessan accession of enthusiasm and interest. A report will be found in another eolumn of the various speakers. The remarks of Mr. Belser, who spoke al length, wane Niner 19, with sien earnest and eloquent guage he gs and cogent reasons for his decision on this rubjeot—that the elevation of Gen, Taylor as the candidate of the people was the duty of every Southern man and every lover of bis coun! and its institutions. He stated that he spoke for himself and no others—that this was no decision of his, but an opinion duly weighed and maturely considered, and that while General Zachary Ler cord maintained his present lofty attitude as the candidate, not of parties or factions, but of the people, he should sustain him. He declared that be aise ahs 8 Southern man with such principles, to a ‘orthern man with Southern principles. ‘That his e: moat patriotic perience in public life had taught him that there was no difference in parties at the North, on the subject of abolition; aud that public men there avowing opposi- tion to the Wilmot Proviso must be prostrated by public overnor Shun! sentiment in that section. That elected as a Wilmot Proviso man. tion at Syracuse was @ deception; and that the only the South and th ‘try was in Gen. Taylor : that he fully believed this; that he had taken his stand upon ft, and should abide by it. He stated that he, as ‘a politician, had given up bis first choice, Mr. Calhoun, feeling that the crisis and believing that Ge: man who could be electes belief, that to this opinion all, of all parties in this sec- tion, must ultimately come. Mr. Belser dwelt at some length, with much force on the importance of this movement id with the earnest sincerity which those who know the warm and generous impulses of his nature can well imagine. ‘Phe rem r8.0f all parties, were in the same nd spirit. There were some minor diversities af opinion on the question of territory, but none on the great question of the election of the hero and patriot, the man for the times, and for the republic. ‘An Appress to THE Prorie or ALapama.—At-~e large meeting of the citizens of Montgomery and the adjoining counties, assembled in the Court Houre in the city of Montgomery on the 16th inst., the pleasing duty was assigned us of addressing you in recommenda- tion of a mass meeting of the friends of Gen. Zachary Taylor, to be held on the sth day of January next, for the pur of bringing ont. at the proper time, a Taylor electoral ticket for this State It cannot longer be disguised that we are approaching ‘a fearful crisis in our national affairs. We should be in- sensible to the preservation of our dearest rights, regard- leas of our solemn duty as citizens and as lovers ofthe Re- ublic, if we longer delay, whilst the Krom bed is so impend- By ‘upon one great question, in the decision of which our mont vital interests, as Southern men, and the perpetuity of the Union itself, are involved. The Nortb,in the main, is united egainst us. This question is paramount to all others, and ther ,a8 we love the Union of the States, as friends of our republican system, it behooves us to avert, if possible, the calamity we so much dread. This calamity may be averted in the result of the next Presidential election, if the South is but true to iteelf. If we divide amongst ourselves, whilst those who oppose us are united as one men. our energies will be frittered away in useless disputes, and our dearest rights under the present Constitution may be irretrievably lost. In our union will be found our strength and our safety asa goonies How can we effect this union? We who have been divied heretofore must be divided no longer; we now have higher objects and holier purposes. The South must be united in the next Presidential election, cannot be effected in th political favorites—party surmountable barrier. The past must be forgotten for the sake of the future! Some man who bas never mingled in the strife and turmoil of partisan warfare— some man whose honesty and talents and patriotiem oan- not be gainsaid—some man at the mention of whore name the whole nation will rally—must be selected to Hill the chief place in the councils of the nation. ‘Where can we find such an one? Need we point you to Gen Zachary Taylor? Though but recently he was but little known to us, the world now knows him. Palo Alto and Resaca de is Palma made him known to the United States—Mon' ‘apnounced him to Europe— Buena Vista proclaimed him to the world! Inhimwe have a hero, # statesman anda patriot. With him at the head of our government, the rights of every section will be protected—the Constitution upheld—and the Union preserved. We therefore recommend him, be- cause his popularity is commensurate with the know- lefige of his noble character and deeds—we recommend him, because we honestly believe that healone can break down the fearfully increasing spirit of faction—we re- commend him, because we honestly believe he is the only man upon whom the whole South can or will unite—we recommend him, because we honestly believe that he alone can sfford us that unity and confidence which will make us harmonious at home ani respected abroad. We present his claims aa one who will be guided by the lights of the Constitution and the high- est example of the republican Presidents who aided in forming it Ia conclusion, we most bose and earnestly in- vite all the friends of General Taylor in the State of Alabama, without distinction of party, to meetin this city on the 8th of January next, to carry out the pur- poses herein set forth. We beg leave to call your attention'to the annexed preamble and resolutions, fully indicating the sense of the meeting and its objects. — Whereas, it is the object of every true hearted Ame- rican to see the Constitution of the United States faith- fully administered, the people harmonious and prospe- rous at home, and the nation honored and respected abroad—And whereas it is not only the right, but the imperative duty,of every citizen to sidin these patrict'c attainments; therefore, not ooly in furtherance of these, but te promote republican principles and establieh them in all time to come, so far as our action can extend, be it resolved by this meeting— Ist.

Taylor have won renown for his country throughout the world, and that the moral grandeur of the man is manifested in his undaunted personel courage, in his heroic achiev men's in all hotly contested battle fields, in his pi eminent abilities in the creation and applieation of means to overcome insurmountable obstacles, in bis personal sacrifices, aud especially in his unwavering fidelity to his country and its constitution, under ever: trying emergency:—whilst his spotless reputation hie uoiversal Lo Newt or acknowledged wisdom—his republican principles and feelings,and ostentatious hu- manity and private virtues, point him out as possessing the high qualifications that are essential to constitute him the favorite of = grateful ‘and republican people, for the bighest office withia their gift. 3d That « fearful crisis, threatening to involve the North and the South in geographical antagonism, (headed, as it is, by many of the master minds of the country, and aided by fierce fection and boding evil for the future.) require a republican of the old school, tree from the shackles and acrimony of party—one who has # fest hold on the heart of the nation—one whose counsels and acknowledged wisdom and disinterested patriotiem can unite the republican brotherhood to- gether—whose overwhelming popularity can break down all the factiona that would destroy the constitution or din- member the Union.

T! site of the observatory is a beau- tiful one, commandi: fine view of Georgetown, Wash- ington, Alexandria, Washington, (opposite Mouat Vernon.) and the Potomac river for several miles above and below the city. It occupies University square, a lot of ground comprising seventeen acres, in the su- urbs of Washington, on the left bank of the Potomac, and about one hundred feet above tide water This was a reservation made by General Washington for the site of a great university. The observatory, however, is ® naval institution, conducted entirely by naval officers, under the direction of Lieut. M. F. Maury, A.

The focal length ot this telescope is 6.5 feet, with a clear aperture of 4.9 inches; the clock has a gridiron pen- dulum, and is of Charles Frodsham’sinake The obser- vations made with instruments thus mounted, are among the most axcurate known in astronomy ; and those now making in Washington have not been sur d ‘le one made during the whols of the last year, which differs as much as | sec. from the mean of all others upon the aame star. A catalegue of all the stars within the reach of this instru- . ment has been already commenced at the na‘ional obser- vatory, which, when. completed, will be regarded by as- tronomers as a standard work, and, perhaps, as the mort accurate catalogue yd. A careful revision of this will probably lead to highly val Its. But wonderful as degree of accuracy in the re- sults obtained from this inatrument, Lieut. Maury has discovered imperfections in it, which he has sought to correct by another. For this purpose he furnished Mesars Ertel & Son with plans and drawings of an improved in- strument, which been lately received at the o! tory, and which we understand those skilful pronounce to be the most complete astronomical inst: ment that they have evor made. It in intended to be mounted temporarily in the prime vertical inthe other Ue dgmes of the south ied But after it has been ap- plied in this direction to the investigation of the several roblems which are connected with its position East and ‘est,it is then to baturned permanently on the meridian where it will be used for observations upon atmospherical refractions, parallax, &c , and for the fers of deter- mining both right ascensions and declinstions, since it combines all the capacities both of the meridian transit instrument and the mural circle, But as itis the first in- strument ever procured in this country for the purpose of investigating the subject ofatmospheric ul refractions, Lieut. Maury has called it the * Refraction Circle,” though its objects and uses are by no means confined to this eabject alone. For instance, in the meridian it is both a mural and a transit instrument; and by reasonof its facilities for reversal, a zenith sector; also, it is well adapted for moasuring the difference, in zenith distance, between north andsouth stars. In the prime vertical it roved zenith sector, ‘and takes the place ‘tical transit instrument, with all the ad- dof an altitude instrument in that not been able to obtain accurate measurement of all parts of this acope in 8 feet long, with a clea: It §w supported in the middle of the axis, between two piers; it has two 4-feet circles, oneon each end of the axis, divided on geld into arcs of 2 minutes value Each circle is ne with six reading microscopes The telescope has two micrometers, one moving in ezimuth, the other in altitud that the wires, and mot the field, are illuminated; and every eye-piece, even of the highest powers, just it is usec, and without alteration of any kind, becomes a collimating ¢ lece, by simply turning the telesccpe down upon a basinof mercury. At one end of the axis, and concentric with it, are two cross lines situated in the focus of a lens placed at the other end of the axis ‘Upon the prolongation ef this axial line at either end, and attached to the same piers which support the tele- scope, are placed two collimators, which are ingeniously contrived to stand in the place both of the striding level and meridian marks, and which are te be used for determining the level of the instrument, the fi the axis, and the eocentricity of the pivovs. Ther further provision for detecting the slightest chang the deviation of the level of the axis from ® normal state, on account of unequal expansion of the. support- ing piers, which are of granite. This cousists of another beautiful contrivance, by means of a couple of invaria- ble rods, or rods of weil-determined expansibility, which are inserted vertically through the piers; and which, by turning a mirror, show the miautest alterations which can take place from this source, in the level or inclination of the axis of the instrument. Thus the imperfecticns of the spirit-level are, in a great measure, avoided; and sll the advantages, with but « pert | of the inconveniences, of a’ stri- ding level to reverse with the instrument, are secured. Appreciating the advantages which these fine icatru- ments afford, the superintendeat appears to have begun with the determination of ro employing them that their results, while they should be the most useful, would at the same time most redound to the credit of the op- servatory and the navy, and to the honor of the country The national observatory being a naval institution, its first object and duty would seem to be to undertake those observations which are most immediately con- navigation, and the results of which might ta requisite for calculating an American nautical almanac, Acsordingly the naval astronomer ‘ular and systematic sun and moon, the planets, and a list of fun ntal stars, comprising u of the greatest magnitudes and of the most favor- positions, to be used as the standard stars in the almanac. But these did not give fall employment either to the instruments, the observers, or the com- puters. Accordingly, t having adjusted his plans, Lieut. Maury took an early ange A in 1845, of making them known to the Secretary of the Mi and of obtaining from him suthority to undertake ob- servations for a most extensive catelogue of stars. This work, when completed according to the orig! will be one of the greatest contributions to tl of astronomy that has ever been made by servatory ; for it contemplates nothing short lar and systematic examination, with rome one or other It ia eo contri of thege excellent instruments, of every point of space in the heavens that is visibl us, and of assigning po- sition, color, and magnitude to every star that the: ~ This will capable of reaching.

By such a plan, the declina- tion of each observed depended upon one reading of a single By th bg plan, the service: stant to read the instru- ment are dispensed with. and the declination of every star depends upon the reading of six micro- soepes instead of one. This impro it eet by an ingenious contrivand mot to the eye-piece instead of the tele the sweep over any particular zone or belt. meter disphragm for oataloguing is provided with o number of parallel wires, the intervals of which have been carfully determined ; and, by giving the eye-piece ‘® motion in altitude as well as in azimuth, each instru- ment is made to cover a belt of from 40m. to 50m. broad in declination. ‘The nadir point being carefully ob- served, the telescope, (tbat of the mural, for instance,) being set for the belt to be awept, and all the microscopes capereliy. read and recorded, the observer takes his posi- tior the eye-piece, and begins to move it up and down, the inatrument itself remaining fixed as he reads it. In whatever part of the field a star appears, micrometer wire isclose at hand, (so that there is no loss of time, as with a single wire, in running the micrometer wire frem one sage of the fleld to the other,) and the star is bisected with this nearest micrometer wire, while the time at which it transite the several vertical wires is also noted. ‘The number of the bisecting wire and the reading of t! micrometer being now entered, the observation ete. The observ le clroumstances can ob: with two or three hundred stars during the night. The meridian circle, in the sam: will oo- cupy the belt below this; while the transit instrument, which the fogenuity of the astronomer has converted into a difference-of-declination instrument, occupies the belt above, each instrument overlapping the belt of the other by 4 or 5 deg; the stars, in the parts thus over- lapped, being common totwo instruments. Thus, the meridian circle and transit instrument establish the right ascension of certain stars which are used by the mural aa so many points of dey ure; while the mural or meridian cirole establishes the declinations of certain stars which serve the transit instrument as points of departure for difference of declination This is the first sweep. The next night, the instruments change places, and go over the same ground, ie. the meridian circle covers the same belt to-night, which on the former night was swept by the mural. Supposing the two nights equally favorable, and the instruments of equal power— the latter of which is. actually the case, the tormer sel- dom—all the stars that were seen in the first swee) the mural, should be observed in the second by the ridian circle. The two lists are immediately coupared, and should there be any dircrepancies between them, the large equatorial is put in pursuitof the peccant is great American work contemplates the examina- tion of every star down to the tenth magnitude, not only in the zodiac, but in the whole heavens; it includes a revision of all the European cat: and, while it looks to the discovery of new pla: and unknown stars, it also aims to detect the disappearance of any stars known to existing catalogues. In short, the Washington catalogue aime at that degree of perfection, which, when fu ronomers shall find an unknown star, may j the remark, “ ‘ar is new in the heavens, be- cause it is not in the Washington catalogue.” Lieut. Maury’s original plan contemplated also measurements for angle of position and distance of all double or mul- tiple stars, together with accurate drawings of all clus- tersand nebu'w. This was to be the work of the equa- torial; but the undertaking to glean after the meri- dional instruments gives this telescope full employment for the present. The observatory commenced its ope- rations in 1845, The first volume, a quarto of five hun- dred pages, bas already been published, and has elicited many end high commendations, both at home and abrcad. In theopinion of one of the most distinguished astronomers of Europe, it has, at once, placed our na- tional observatory in the front rank with the oldest and best institutions of thekindin Europe The volume for 1846 is in press. The catalogue for that year will num- ber some 12,000 or 15,000 stars, most of them unkaown to any existing catalogues; the whole work will comprise a quarto volume of not less than 1000 pages, and will be the largest work of the kind ever published by any ob- servatory as the result of a single year’s labor. EY The Geological Laced of Towa, Wisconsin and Minesota. [From the 8t. Louis Republican, Nov. 15 ] In the Republican, of May last, when the U. S. corps of Geologists, under the direction of D. D. Owen, were about to enter upon the explora- tion of the North-Western survey, embracing the northern part of fowa and Wisconsin, and 4 large portion of the Minesota territory, we then took occasion to describe, particularly, the ex- tent and boundaries ‘of the proposed survey, the important objects designed to be accomplished, the distinguished scientific gentlemen compos- ing the corps, the time which would be required for the completion of the survey, and the benefits which were expected to result from a faithful execution of the duties imposed on the respec- tive members of the corps. Of the three seasons deemed necessary for the completion of the survey, one has elapsed, and Dr. Owen and _hjs party, consisting of B. F. Shumard, B. GC. Macy, A. Litton, J.G. Norwood, and A. Randall, have visited this city on their return. As some time will be required to pre- pare the official report to the Department. at ashington, and as considerable interest has been manifested on the subject, we have been at some pains to collect data to enable us to present a brief view of some of the results of the labors of the present season. A reconnoissance has been made of the coun- try on both sides of the Mississippi river, north of the Wisconsin and Turkey rivers, and south of the St. Croix and St. Peters rivers, embracin, the whole of the Chippewa land district situate: in lowa and Wisconsin. The Wisconsin, Prai- rie la Cross and Black rivers—all the branches of the Chippewa, Croix, Bois Brule, and Montreal, or Mauvais rivers, and the west fork of Bad river—have been explored from their mouths to their respective sources. The St. Pe- ters river was ascended a little beyond the Bois France ; and all the streams south of the St. Pe- ters, and north of the United States’ geological survey, made by Dr. Owen, in 1839, have been ascended as far as they were navigable in birch bark canoes, The corps, during the first season, have cross- ed the country from the Mississippi to Lake Su- perior six times; and in the execution of their ex- plorations, the corps eenointly have travelled over an extent of several thousand miles. A detailed survey has been made in connection with the linear survey of the southern portion of the Chippewa land district, as well as the region on both sides of Lake St. Croix, and between that lake and the Mississippi. The whole extent of the country of which a reconnoissance has been made during the present season, is estima- ted to be equal, in area, to the State of New York. The labors of the corps have not been restrict- ed, exclusively, to the investigation of the geo- logical and mineral character of this north-wes- tern section of country. Its agricultural re- sources have been particularly examined—sta- tistics of its lumber trade collected—important additions made to its ph: raphy, hither- to but littke known, and particular attention directed to the acquirement of every kind of knowledge calculated to afford valuable informa- tion in regard to the real value of the country, whether applicable to the requisition# of the miner, the manufacturer, the farmer, the trader, or the man of science. During the present win- ter, chemteal analysises wilt be made of the ores and ore-bearing rocks, and the different soils which have been collected; upon the completion of which the first annual report will be drawn up, containing detailed estimates, accompanied by a geological chart, embracing the general re- sults of the observations of all the members of the corps during the present year. As respects the geology of the section of country surveyed, its rocks belong, in a great measure, to the primary and silurian, or proto- zoac formation. The lower magnesian lime- stone, the lead bearing rock of southern Mis- souri, is found on the west side of the Missis- sippi river, from Turkey river, which enters the Mississippi near Prairie du Chien, tothe St. Pe- ter’s river, cays in various localities, in- dications of considerable lead ledes. On the eastern side of the Mississippi river, primitive rocks are met with in places from forty to sixty miles from the river. These granitic formations ere important tor arehitectural pur- ‘poses, as they afford a great variety of the most durable, as well as ornamental building stones, which, at no very distant period, will te valua- ble as articles of commerce, as the great valley of the Mississippi, to the south, is formed of se- condary rocks, which are far inferior for the per: manent construction of edifices. P Throughout this primitive regiongthe granite rocks make their appearance in a su@eession of rounded knobs, elevated from ten to fifty feet above the waters of the surrounding country.— Their general range is southwest and northeast. These rocks present coneiderable variation in eh ‘er and composition. Sometimes they ar nblendic, approaching to perfect syenite; at otser times, feldsparthic. Some portions are massively stratified, the masses being nearly vertical. On the western limits of these primi- tive rocks, there are several large deposits of iron ore. The trap ranges, with tne exception of those crossing the St. Croix river, are found on the water courses which empty into Lake Supe- rior, and is the rock in which the Lake Superior copper 18 found, and no doubt valuable mines of this reineral will be, hereafter, discovered in NING, NOVEMBER 29, 1847. these ranges, equal to any heretofore found far- ther east on Lake Superior, ag they constitute a portion of the same ranges. In the vicinity of these trap ranges, the land is tilable, the soil good, and generally covered with a rich growth of the sugar maple. ‘ e ' At the Falls of St. Croix, fifty to sixty miles from the Mississippi, there is a grand outburst of green stone, epidote and porphyritic trap, form- ing,a series of dykes, 170 feet and more in ele- vation, above the streams, and traversed by veins of aative copper, carbonate, and probably grey sulphuret. i At the falls of St. Croix, immediately in juxta- position with the trap, in some places entangled in the disrupted portions of these rocks; are beds highly charged with lingulas and orbicu- lars, some, if not all of them, probably, of unde- seribed species. These beds differ in lithalogi- eal character, from anything observed elsewhere, in the protozoic strata of the west, and pernaps in any portion of the United States. These lin- gular and orbicular beds, though often crowded with remains of these genera of molusca, are found to be subordinate to a quartzose sandstone, also containing lingulas and orbiculars, probably of the same species as in equivalent beds of Pots- dam sandstone of New York, making them of ee geological interest, as they are undoubted- the lowest fossiliferous beds ever noticed in the west, and as rich in remains of these forms of molusca as any of the most fossiliferous beds of the Ohio valley. Some distance above these lingular and orbicular beds, but yet considerably below the lower magnesian limestooe of Wis- consin, we have a strata of the lithalogieal cha- racter of the hydraulic limestone. ‘These strata are of great geological interest, as they make us acquainted with some of the earliest forms of organic existence yet brought to light in this country, and furnish a new clue to the identifi- cation of strata. In the rents of the trap are found portions of the adjacent fossiliferous strata indurated, altered, and even cemented to por- tions of trappean rocks with their fossils unob+ literated and even well formed. The magnetic variations in these granitic and traperian ranges, is often great, at timesso much 80, as to reverse completely the direction of the poles. A variation fluctuating from five to twenty degrees en either side of the true meridian, was not uncommon. ¥ There are about thirty different species of ani- mals in this region, many of them valuable for their furs. ‘The rivers and lakes contain a large variety of fish, in the greatest abundance, und of superior esculent qualities. The attention of the corps has been particular- ly directed to. botanical discoveries. There are found in this district, so far as ascertained, forty-five distinct species of forest trees, con- stituting twenty-five fenera, and embracing twelve of the natural orders. Of these, the most valuable are the white and yellow pine, (pinus strobus and pinus resinosa) the hemlock, (abies canadensis-lin) and the sugar maple, (acer saccharinum lin.) Of the resinous trees there are some eleven or twelve species, of which the most important are the white and yellow pine, on account of the immense amount of lumber which they furnish; and the hemlock, for the great quantity of taa- ners’ bark it will afford. Some idea may be formed of the immense loss which the United States government sustains in. the destruction of timber 1n the extensive pineries of this region, when we reflect that independently of the large quantity which is rafted off in logs, square tim- ber, shingles and laths, there are in operation on the waters of the Wisconsin, forty-five saws; on the Black river, sixteen saws; on the Chippewa, seven saws; on the St. Croix, twelve siws— muking in the whole, eighty saws. As each saw is capable of turning out annually half a million feet of sawed lumber, there are annually caerenenceeeinararrcinninasinireriaiincernatinns tei eatalil Price Two Cents. . TAKING tHe Veit.—We learn from the Cin- ernatt Catholic Telegraph, of the 19th instant, that three young ladies, two of them natives o' that city, received the white veil in the convent of Notre Dame. Also that avery accomplished lady, one of those who have been educated in the Eastand sent out to the West under the pa- tronage of Gov. Slade, having recently joined the Catholic faith Mt shortly commence her no- vitiate in the ne institution. The following account of the recent admission of two young American ladics into a Baltimore convent is from the Baltimore Sun: ‘For the interest tea portion of our readers we give a sketch of the proceedings at the Carmelite Nun- nery in Aisquith street, on the occasion of two sopllcapts presenting themselves to become members of the order. Early on Batardaw, morning, the beautiful chapel of the Sacred Heart, within the walle of the institution, was crowded to overflow, pria- cipally by females, all anxious to witness the ceremonies, At about nine, Miss Mary Jose- phine Smith, of this city, with Miss Anne Law- rence, of Frederick, the two candidates, entered the church, accompanied by Miss Margaret Ellen Holbrook, in the capacity of bridesmaid. They were all dressed in pure white, with jewels, and a veil falling over*the head and shoulders, similarly to the usual array of a bride for the altar, Indeed, we have seldom viewed more youthful and happy countenances under the bridal veil than those about to enter the bars of the cloister. They took seats among the au- dience, and, at about 10 0’clock, the Rev. John P. Donellan, accompanied and assisted by the Rey. Mr. Carborry, celebrated high mass, after which the sacrament of the communion was ad- ministered to the novitiates. The Rev. Mr. Donellan delivéred an spate” priate sermon, taking for his text the 28th, 29th and 30th verses of the 11th chapter of Matthe “Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden,” &c. The vanities, trials, and temptations’ of the world were depicted in eloquent and thrill- ing language, and the calm life and thartablo duties of a religious recluse, away from the in- fluences and ee Ieee of the world, devoted to the worship of God, and to the education, re- lief, and succor of the poor and oppressed, were described as far preferable to a life of slavery to the requisitions of the world. He addressed him- self mainly to the ladies ‘present, and lectured, them on the Rarisaina and trials of the yoke of -d with the joy and happiness the world, compare: resulting trom bearing the ‘tyoke of Christ,” al- iuded to in the text. We could not, however, agree with the reverend gentleman, in the full ex- tent of his opinion, that the ladies in their social . mieotinge, in the private circle, theconcert room, the ball room, or even the street, usually occupy their time in slandering, backbiting, or ridi- culing others who may not happen Tans reesat, —sometimes their equals, or their superiors, an oftentimes even their inferiors, which he seem- ed to think were among wordly acquirements. These should be regarded as mere innocent fri- volities, which time and the ‘‘age of discretion” must eventually obliterate. That the require- ments of the world, and especially of the fash- ionable world, are very oppressive, we admit; butthe world we live in hus always been regard- ed by us as a rery pleasant world, and one that we would be willing to abide in to the age of Methusaleh—a very good world, take itall in all, prayed we make good use ot it. He also al- uded to the feeling of compassion and regret with which those who wear the yoke of the world usually regard a young temale about to retire within the walls of a convent; whereas he considered them to be envied, rather than to be the subjects of commiseration. Their greatest happiness consisted in succoring and relievin; those borne down by the yoke of the world, an to all such expressions of commiseration their reply is, ‘take ye heed of yourselves and your children.”” sawed forty millions of feet of lumber, worth in St. Louis nearly half a million of dollars. , Cn the head waters of the streams on the east side of the Mississippi, there are extensive fo- rests of hemlock, capable of affording an ample supply of bark for all the tanneries which may hereaiter be established in the West—a want of which material has been an impedimeat to the prosecution of the tanning business in the valley of the upper Mississippi, and which has forced us to export our raw hides to the East, and im- port their leather in return. .The sugar-maple tree grows so abundantly and yields so luxuriantly in the Minesota territory, that at some fiture period it will be second only to Louisiana in the production of sugar. An In- dian squaw, performing all the labor herself, can obtain, during the sap season, 300 pounds of su- gar with her imperfect Ladian utensils. The wild rice, (zizania aquatica,) infinitely superior in taste, and far more nutritious than the rice of the Southern States, grows abundant- ly as an indigenous vegetable, and can be culti- vated to almost any extent in the lakes which abound in this territory, and will, in all probabi- lity, at no very distant period, compete with the Southern production. After the tops of the rice plants have been tied up in small sneafs, as it stands growing in the water, an [ndian squaw with her canoe will gather from five to ten bushels of rice per day. ; _ The cranberry (oxycoccos macrocarpa,) is an indigenous vegetable of this region, and grows very abundantly in its wild state, and will, in all probability, be extensively cultivated in the wet and swamp lands of this section, and which are almost useless for other agricultural purposes. We look forward with great interest to the offi- cial report, which, we hope and expect, will con- tain a full and minute statement of all the disco- veries and researches that have been made in re- lation to the animal, vegetable and mineral re- ne of this important section of the Great est.

They approached the door leading to the altar, which was thrown open, when the two novitiates arose, and entered the altar, accompa- nied by the bridesmaid, were received by Arch- bishop Eccleston and lead by him to the door, where the nuns were in waiting to receive them. They there kneeled down, and were received and raised by the lady Abbess, when the door closed. They then approached the gratin on the interior side and kneeled: when the Archbi- shop questioned them as to their names, and whether they had presented themselves after due consideration, and of their own free will and accord, as candidates for holy orders. They re- plied, in clear and distinct voices, that they had ot considered the step they were about to take, and had approached the altar of their own free will and accord, with a firm intention to live up to the vows and dut es of their holy calling. _ They then retired into an ante-chamber, and in a few minutes returned, arrayed in the gar- ments of the sisterhood, apparently shorn of their hair and all outward ornaments, with their heads bound in the bands ot the order, but with no veils on. Lach of them bore in her hand a lighted taper on a staff, and approaching the grating, again kneeled. The archbishop, ac- companied by the Rev. Messrs. Donellan and Carberry, again approached, and after going through the service ordained for the occasion, christened Miss Smith as Sister Alberti, and Miss Lawrence as Sister Rose of Lima, by which names they will hereafter be known among the sisterhood. They were then invested in the mantel of the order, and a white veil thrown over each of their heads. After kneeling at the interior altar on either side of the Lady Abbess, they passed around and saluted each of the nu- merous si@ers arranged along each side of the interior chapel, all closely veiled, and each car- rying a lighted taper in herhand, ‘The two novitiates then approached the railing, and by a nod of the head bid a general adieu to the host of friends who had assembled to witness the ceremony, when they all retired to the interior of the convent, with the same solemn tread and manner with which they had previously enter- ed. We should not omit to mention the sweet chaunt of the nuns which accompanied most of the ceremonies, and added to the solemnities of the occasion. Heavy Fat.ung.—Our community have been somewhat excited by the unexpected failure of Thomas E. Warren, a stock and exchange broker of this ah on Monday last.
