It is with much more than my ordinary energy that l entreat the great direction of the Herald at the crisis in affairs produced by the irreparable loss of General Taylor. 1 say direction, iustead of in- fluence, because the Herald, no longer occupying | the altitude of a dissatisfied eritie upon the policy of the government of the United States, has be- @ome a recognised power of state by the death of the President, and the dispersion of hié cabinet. | The most vigorous newspaper that ever has existed, it finds itself suddenly at the point of its career which makes it responsible for the political progress and dignity of the first republic in the world. For be it wel! understood, that the popular daily news- paper, which does not exist at all in England* any more than the militia, the suffrage, the jury, the free school, and voluntary worship; aye, not even the right of useful meeting and petitioning, is, among the highest forces of republicanism, the chief. It has fora long time previous to 1850 been impossi- ble to defy the daily press and couduct the Federal government ; but now public men can do nothing without its cordial assistance. The character of democratic institutions, now well comprehended in America, d beginning to be appreciated in Frane«, but unknown in England, requires rulers | to bow to the will of the people. The daily news- peper is the polidcal organ of the various shades of opmion which constitute that sovereign popular will, The entire mass of the citizens, freely con- sulted, and speaking through the press, even before i allot box in person, and by their ves in the legislature, decree and set up and pull down ! the policy es the lawgivers of the couatry. ping else than vaiversal sufirage, enlightened by the tree exchange of thoughts and arguments through the newspepers, will secure the treasure of seif-government among any people. Of these two greatest human institutions, the popular press is only second to universal suffrage ; and without both, it is mmpossi to give to so y the least sible chanc permanence hereafter. can newspapers know that at home their prosperity is indissolubly bound to universal suffrage. Let them not dre: rwise abroad of Mr. Calhoun and Ge- to «hange the foreign as well as domestic relations of the United States. The death of Sir Robert Peel also threw England out of the position she has occa- pied since the Corn Law Repeal of 1816. By the death of the illustrious Senator and of the d repeal the law w President, the Compromise has better chances | of adoption in the Senate, and probably in the House, so that the federal government will have time to act vigorously on the present extraordinary condition of Europe. It should be the mission of the Herald, which will have much to say on that matter, to urge the new administration forward to the most cordial relatio with France. The Herald hasdove « great deal to unite the countries | by vending out its French edition, and by printing Wanslations from the Paris press. 1 observed that the Hera/d’s publication of Mr. de Girardia’s article on Cuba, was instantly responded to by him in | transferring to bis paper several columns of the lust rteamer’s Herald. It is only thus that the American and French publi 1 approach eaeh ‘Other in the common cause of republicanism. And specking diflerent languages, it required great news- paper enterprise to bring them together. I would respectfully further suggest to the Herald to speak kindly and en: singly of the herculean efforts of the French republicans, against the grand coa- spirwey of European monarchs. It has been in perfect good faith that I have been compelled to resent the sneers of some American papers at the capacity of the French people for self-government, in these lette end I must go much further than thi nd say that in the United States, the demo- eratic cause in France should be altogether dis- Unguished from the other exceptional posture of ermment, and t even the vanity of men should be most assiduously flattered, that they may have every sort of extraneous im- pulse to persevere. It answers no purpose at all am privete hfe to pique or insult a friend, even for his favlis; but we see every day ex les without number, of men who have been rescued from des- peration by kindness of speech, anda very few sedicious preises. If this course were heartily adopted in the United States, it weuld not be one mon’h till Paris, and the departments, the centre. and entire circumference of France would be filled with energy to resist the vilest despotism thet has ever eccursed a free people; and extend their heods in thankfalness, aud fall of benefits to the reyublicans of America.

Reciprocity should not stipulated for at first, but it might well be pro- vided that the privileges should cease if not re- turned in five years. I have no expectation that the monstrous usurpation of Russia will succeed ; but it goes to my heart to think what blood and treesure will have to be expended in resisting it by France, unassisted by the Uuited States. The Hlerald here is a host; and has already acquired the confidence of France-and has hardly any- | thing to acquire in the way of authority in the United States. 1 most earnestly pray that, without | any, further supplication, it will lead in the way | to the final nd wiumphant emancipation of the | world from the same Tartars and Cossacks which | hope again to nail their horses’ shoes on the doors of the Tuilleries. The French people—sincerely republican, and fur on the way of realizing the | glory of that system—can hardly struggle uuder | the pecumary and administrative barthens which | Lhave hitherto deseribed. They are now mo-t deeply injured by those who have betrayed their | confidence, and who demand their liberties or | their lives. For God’s sake, let the Herald’s clarion sound the alarm | There are at New York many ianocent people who expect that true and effectual resistance will be opposed to the infernal designs of the Thieves’ Alliance by this government. There never was a worse delusion. It is only a question whether England shall be ective or passive in the destruc- | tion of democracy in Europe.

Let iatelligent | Americans reflect upon it, The President of the Council, Lord Lansdowne, made the following affirmations ia the Greek de- bate in the Lords, in reply to Lord Stanley's decla- ration that there was serious and most alarming danger that Russia would be alienated by the course of the government. Lord Lansdowne re- | plied, “The noble lord has expressed his apprehen- sien that those transactions have interrupted our amicable relations with the Russian government. With the respect which I entertain for that govern- ment, with the unfeigned desire I have that we should maintain, on all subjects, a good under- | standing with that great power, I deeply regret that any ditlerence of opinion—for it never went further | ~indicated itself with reference to this subject.

After a very laborious accouchement, the Nation- al Assembly has finally given birth to its list of the Committee of Twenty-five, which is to be held during the vecation of the House. The composi- tion of that list, taken altogether, is not very favo- rable to the governnent of the Elysiée. It is com- posed of Mesers.

Many of these members of the Assembly are very hostile to Louis Napoleon and his minis- try, end I need but name Général Lamoriciére, who is called by the newspapers of the Imperialist party,“ L* mnsulteur du government.” Thus, every thing proves thatthe announcement of the famed covy de etate had some influence in the nomination of these gentlemex.

Sketch of the Life of Neander. (From the Berlin Drarapentanee of the Bosten Tra- veller.) August Neander was born in Gottingen, of Jew- sh parentage, in 1787; studied at the Gymuasium ‘at Hamburg; at the age of 17 was converted to Censtenire and baptized. After his conversion, he went to Halle tostudy Theology under Schleier- macher. Having completed his studies, he was first appointed, in 1811, private lecturer in Heidel- berg; and in 1812, professor at the newly founded University in Berl. He was never married, but lived with his maiden sister. Often have 1 seen the two walking arm in arm upon the streets and in the parks of the uy, Neander’s habit of ab- straction and short sightedness, rendered it neces- sary for him to have some one to guide the way whenever he left his study to take a walk, or to go to his lecture room. Generally, a student walked with him to the University, and just before it was time for his lecture to close, his sister could be seen walking up and down on the opposite side of the street, waiting to accompany him ho! Many anecdotes are related of him illustrative of his absence of mind, such as his appearing in the lecture room half dressed—if left alone, always going to his old residence, after he had removed to another partof the city—walking in the gutter,Wc., &c. In the lecture room, his manner was in the highest degree peculiar. He put his left arm over the desk, clasping the book in his hand, and after brioging his face close to the corner of his desk, eflectually concealed it by holding his notes close to his nose. é In one hand was always a quill, which, bee the lecture, he kept constantly twirling about crushing. He pushed the desk forward upon two legs, swinging it back and- forth, and every few minutes would plunge forward almost spasmodi- cally, throwing one foot back in a way leading you to expect that he would the next moment precipitate himself headlong down upon the desks of the students. Twirling his pen, occasional spitting, jerking his foot backward, taken with his ress, gave him a most eccentric appearance in the lecture room. Meeting him upon the street, with his sister, you never would have suspected that such a strange looking being be Neander. He formerly had two sisters, but a few years ago the favorite one died. It was a trying affliction, and for a short interval he was quite overcome, but suddenly he dried his tears, calmly declared his firm faith and reliance in the wise purpose of God in non her to himself, and resumed his lectures immediately, as if nothing had overtaken him to disturb his serenity. Neander’s charity was unbounded. Poor stu- dents were not only presented With tickets to his lectures, but were also often ores by him with money and clothing. Not a farthing of the money received for his lectures ever went to supply his own Wants; it was all given away for benevolent uurposes. "The income his writ was be- voeea upon the Missionary, Bible, other so- cieties, and upon hospitals. Thoughts of himself never seemed to have ol upon his mind. He would sometimes give away to a poor student all the money he had about him, at the moment the request was made of him, even his new coat, retaining the old one for himself. You have kaowa this great man in your country more on account of his learning, from his books, than in any other way; but here, where he has lived, one finds that hie private character, his piety, his charity, have distinguithed him above all others. It would be difficult to decide whether the influence of his exemple has not been as great that of his writings upon the thousands of young men who have been his pupils Protestants, Catholics, neatly all the leadin; ae throughout Ger- meny, have attended his lectures, and all have been more or less guided by him. While phi- losophy has been for years attempting to usurp the iT of religion, Neander has been the chief ia- strument in combatting it, and ia keeping the true faith constantly be: the students, Strauss’ celebrated * Life of Jesus” created almost a revo- lution in the theological world. At the time of its eppearance, the Minister of Ecclesiastical Af- fairs consulted Neander’s opinion as to the pro- priety of prohibiting its sale in Prussia. Neander, who at that time was reading lectures upon the lite of Christ, replied, that as his opinions were in direet opposition to those of Strauss, he would write a book in which he would endeavor to coa- fute the dangerous positions taken by that author, He could not advise to the prohibition of the work —ithod already taken ite place in the svieatitic world, and could only be put down by argument. “ Our Saviour,” said he, * needs not the assi of man to maintain his Chureh upon earth. ander’s principal lectures were upon Church His- tory, Degmutics, Patristic, and the books of the New Testament. His lecture room wes always well filled, and one could see from his earnest manner thet his whole soul was engaged in the work—that it was to him a labor of ore. Nean- der’s writings bave been translated, and are well known in America. The principal among them are, “* Jolian and his Times,” S12; “ St. Bernard end his Times,” 1518; * The Developement of the Gnostic Syste Isi8; * St. Chrysostom,” 1822 ; “ History of the Christian Church,” which has tesched its tenth volume ; “ The Anti-Gaostic: 1826 ; * Plonting of the Chureh by the Apostles, 1882; * Life of Jesus,” in reply to Scrauss, 1837. He wes better acquainted with Church Hise end the writings of the Fathers than any on bis time. Jt has been the custom upen the recur- renee of birth-day, for the stadents to present to him a rere edition of one of the Fathers, and thus he has come to hav pirte sets of their writings to be found in aay library.

Protessor Page, in the lect which he inow delivering betore the Smithsoniaf Institution, states that there is no longer any doubt of the application of this power as a substitute for steam. He exhi- bited the most imposing experiments ever witness- ed in this braneh of science. An immense bar of iren, weighing one hundred and sixty pounds, was made to epring up by magnetic action, and to move rapidly up and down, davoing like a feather in the without any visible support, The force ope- 4g upon this bar he stated to averuge three hun~ ounds through t ches of its motion. He said he could raise this bar one hundred feet, ae readily es through ten inches, and he expected ne difficulty in doing the seme with a bar weighing ene ton, or a hundred tons. He could make a pile- driver or a forge-hammer, with great simplicity, and could muke an engine with a stroke of six, twelve, twenty, or any number of feet.
