FIOM THE N. Y. STATESMAN. DEPARTURE OF LAFAYETTE. And thou wilt go then, fare thee well ! Thou great and good, exalted man, Whose worth allhnman voices tell; Whose virtues bloomed when life began. Nay, chieftain, shrink not from our praise; It flows from fountains free, and pure; Our gratitude the tribute pays, And love as strong as Heaven is sure. Flv to thy bright and blooming FRANCE, Vet think ah, think all silently, When gliding o'er the vast expanse, What beating hearts are blessing thee! Then, to thy couch in safety rest. For vainly winds and waves contend; Jehovah hath thy slumbers blest. Approved thy work and is thy friend. Wre give thee all that thou couldst claim; We give thee all that God hath given; Upon our hearts we write thy name, And hope to meet our friend in Heaven!

Jackson became animated, his countenance was lighted up, and the proudest feelings of his soul seemed to flash from his eyes while he asserted that the example of the United States would prove the downfall of tyranny. "After breakfast, next morning, he asked us to walk with him. We proceeded nearly a quarter of a mile to some nvegro quarters, where he was carrying some diet to a little sick negro He went into the cabin, and left it with directions of treatment. Irt passing on we met several slaves: all seemed cheerful., and glad to see their master. He directed some of them to go to the house and get molasses for their children "He then observed, that we
should go and see his old war horse: poor fellow, he said, he was afraid he would leave him shortly. We passed some distance before we found the horse:

Vol. I. contains a critical inquiry into th genuineness, authenticity, uncorrupted preservation, and inspiration of the Holy Scriptures. Vol. il. In two parts treats tirst on sacred criticism; includii.g an historical! and critical account of the original languages of scripture, and of the connate or kindred dialects: an account (with numerous fac similies) of the principal manuscripts of the Old & New Testaments, &c. &c. In this part of the work, the history of the authorized English: version of the Bible is particularly considered. The various readings, the quotations from the Old Testaments in the New, the poetry of the I kbit ws and harmonies ct the Scriptures, form a portion cf this part.
