Buenos Ayres herself appears to proceed prosperously, ller papers discuss freely the most important subjects, and in a republican spirit. She has just built an edifice for a representative hall under the direction of L). Prospero Catelino.

Here, as formerly, he was not only a useful member of soci ety. but a strong pillar in the church. The writer feels inadequate to potirtray the ma iy virtues of this eminent disciple and faithful follower of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Perhaps, in similar circumstances, none has surpassed him in practical benevolence. He possessed a mind capacious, liberal and free though but a small bound was allotted for his operations, yet his ardent desire for the general good of mankind, can be best recollected by those who knew his personal exertions.

This tract can be seen ijft4late: dwelling, and may on its perusal afford comfort, antl at the same time create astonishment in the mind of the reader. As an officer in a branch of the American B. S. his letters of correspondence will ever be gratefully rcceied bv every friend of" that institution. He was no less faithful than industrious in his sphere, he gave himself much to the service til the church. The good of souls seemed to absorb his whole at tention, and to govern and influence all his conduct he often visited the sick without their requesf esteeming it a privilege' to prav and converse with t'-em in tne most profitable manner, and if no opportunity for thee exerci-es occured he counted the time lost; he lived "as seeing hint who is invisible, and kept his mind much fixed upon God and divine things at home anil abroad in the house and by the way, his compassion iva not in word or in tongue onlv but indeed and in truth and as has been hinted, tho

His house, his h tntU. ami his heart were always open to those who experienced want or distress those who are far distant from tin place of his decease can attest to the truth of this statement; v .hen in pain, sick ne-s or the like, he would view the hand ot (i.id with care, and look to him only

This word he took for the man of his counsel, and I believe never neglected reading it daily in his family, accompanied with prayer and supp'.'.CAtwu (or cucftiuunioation of gace divine. His decease took place one week after the death of his minister, the Rev. T.

It will puzzle a?.v,' one to say what service has been done by. the late session of Con gress that is adequate to their five TA-ruths labour. A member writes us that he has never seen a noire abortive session. They talked much about retrenchment how much have they retrenced? They vehemently declaimed Against the abuses of the puplic funrl and vet have fhef adopted any very vigorous schemes for unkene'fnv defaulters and investigating balances The .most itticient check they have placed upon men now "in office is to forbid their dipping their hands into the public purse until their arrears have been seitled. There may he some little virtue in their provision if the Executive will inflexibly do his duty. The, chronicles of the last session are written in a few words. JThev talked much, and did little.
