If I were to build a house, perhaps, when I got through, I could ee; where I might have improved it, had 1 been as wise before I built. So it is with our language. Itoiiginally answered a people who could not, I doubt, express many ideas which were Miggested to them by nature.

He next savs, In hardly any thing ehe well traidi so pass for (ruth." Query Will his "trash"' ever pass for truth? The most ordinary "prognostic" might answer this. He next speak ab jut unmeaning words. He must have come from some far distant place where words have no meanings. He speaks about "signs," perhaps they were substitutes, and perhaps they are the little things 'founded in the nature of things."

If he will take up soineof our elementary grammars and learn them, he will know how to correct any improper sentence in our language. lie next wants to know "how it comes that some are as full of assurance as of ignorance?" I can answer him. Ignorance entered in the head in infancy; there were no pains taken at an earlv period to eradicate it until they became to be men. and then there were

ciples, bat principle of necessity. Com-j means used a while and then slopped,
mon usage lias sanctioned them and we must take them as they arc and not as they should be. If we were all to stop i peaking for a few vears and send a deputation of suc h men as " Sigma,"' and hi condjulors, to form a language based upo!j soo'id ' philosophy, and in beings founded in the nature of things," I have i .. d..ubt but where years silent,
iut'usands .-hould awake lrom their reverie, they would adopt the then dead I'.nglish language, in preference to Sigma & Cn's. The Knglish language like all other living languages must advance or retrograde. The American motto is advance; therefore, it is daily making unseen addition'.
He tells us things that every person of common sense knows. He talks a great deal about our language " being founded in the nature of things," occ. Now at he has ridiculed our language and hi? language, he ought to have a
language " founded in the nature of things." We all admit the utility of
hiving n way by which wo can communicate our ideas dhtinely and clearly. Seen a l.vNaa' vtii: I insist we ii ave, and f a trove we hwe, by fair reasoning which U undeniable. He fore he. pulls it down, he ought to make one that is better adapted to the exchanging of our ideas than our present, and then he would " rtiolu lionize"1 our country, and gain prose I j tes. Now, suppose some of his " philosophical"' arguments be examined a little. J le hys down one good self-ev ident fact or axiom: viz. " Jo one tmth controverts another truth.'1 Now notice what he says, (Mr. LMitor, get your grammar, and dictionary too not Walker, Worstf.r or Wc brr, but bi dictionary,
and then entered assurance in all the
vacuum, and wedged in ignorance so tight, that Archimedes with his lever and fulcrum could not stir them, and there they will remain as steadfast as the pillars of Hercules. It is perhaps fulile to follow his patch work any further than 1 have. But I would here take notice of one remaik he made in his first renowned address on Philology. He speaks of individuals w ho have gone the loline of the Knglish language, who are unable to explain the most common principle. This I admit is frequently the ease. But, because one is a dunce, it is no reason we all should be. I can take an individual of only an ordinary capacity, and teach him, in six months, the principles of our language thoroughly. He speaks of persons spending years and years in this study without ellecting it. A poor argument to gain proselj tes to a grammar " founded in the nature of things.'' I will now come to a close by entreating him to give us an idea of his "sign"' grammar, before he knocks the Knglish language into " nonentity''' fur theimore, by entreating him to make himself belter acquainted with some of our grammars, before he throws all into endless perdition.

From the Washington i'lobe. A most tragic scene occurred in the House of Representatives vesierday. The successor of the late .John Randolph, of Roanoke, Judge. BouLiuu, rose and begun his speech, by apologizing for having declined hitherto to ask the usual tribute to (he great orator, who died a member of the Hoie, and w ho, while living, had made it ilhistiious by his eloquence when in the act of ottering his reasons, the Judge fcil dead in the anus of one of (lie members near him. The sensation p;oJ;;td .:.: t treme, and excited to the highest by the appearance of Mrs. Bouldin in the. Hall, who had witnessed from the gallery, the fall of her husband. hen she approached him, and found that all attempts to restore life were vain, the bereaved and almost distracted lady pierced the Hall with her shrieks. She was borne from the Hall and her husband's remains w ere carried to the Speakers room to await the order of the House in relation to his funeral. The private worlh and public character of the deceased, will doubtless receive from some one of bis surv iving colleagues proper commemoration on the meeting of the House to day. The follow ing are the remarks utter" ed by Judge Bolt.duv, in the House of Representatives when his voice was hushed by the hands of death: Mr. BocLDiN, of Va., rose to address tho House, and began in the following w ords : "Before I submit some remarks I wished to make on the merits of the very serious question before the House, I must advert to a rebuke which, with ;d! du-- humility, I received from my collogue, (Mr. Wise.) He stated and truly, that, nil! lough Mr. Randolph? when he (tied, had been a member elect of this body, vet that fact had not been announced on this floor. I am not in the habit of taking to myself a general remaik not peculiarly directed to myself but when a general remark is of such a kind that it will apply to no one else, or not to any else with equal propriety, I am compelled (o take notice of it. My colleague did not as kindly suggest that this ought to have been done, until he mentioned it in his remarks on this floor; but another colleague most kindly and delicately did through another person, suggest to me that it ought to be done; and now, as it is my duty, I must tell my colleague, and this House, and my constituents, Ihe reason why Mr. Randolph's death was not here announced. But I can't tell the reason why his deatli was not here announced without telling what I told a fi lend that I should say, in case I did" ere Mr. Bouldin sreooncd, fell, and in a few minutes after expired And the House immediately adjourned.
Washington, Thursday, Feb. 12, 1834. FI MERAL OF THE HON. THOMAS T. BOULDliW The members of the Senate, preceded by tlicir oilkers, entered the Hall at 12 o'clock. The president of the United States, Heads of Departments, and Judges of
the Supreme Court, also attended, and took gfjHts in front of the Chair. The remains of the deceased were
brought into the Hall, preceded by the Committee of Arrangements, the Pall Bearers, and the Virginia Delegation, as mourncis.
