We are happy to karn that the Sunday school in this p ace has recently been rc-orga insed and i now in operation this presents to ail. particularly the poor and indigent, an excellent opportunity of obtaining lur their children at least the rudiments of education " without money and without price. From the respectability and industry ot the gentle men wc have heard named as the office-is of the insiitutiont no reasonable duubt can be entertained of its perminancy or ol iis bene fitting materially the rising generation ThcRev.S.T. Alexander was on Saturday last ordained pastor of the prckbyterian church of this place and its vicinity ; a laige number assembled on this solemn 6c interesting occasion ; an excel ent set mon a delivered by the Rev. Mr. Spillmar the charge Sc right hand of fellowship by the Rev. Mr. Bliss. From returns which have been received from different states, no doubi remains but that general Jackson will receive a consider able majority of electoral votes indeed it has been admitted by some of the ftiends of the present administration that Jackson will receive nearly two to one we icarn by the late papers that the general received ne elecioral vote in the state of Maine Vox populi vox dci.

It is by means oi the press chiefly, that so much of Christendom owes its escape from the thraldom oi superstition But in speaking ot the diguity of the Mechanic Arts, we could not confine them to the mere hand that executes, without think ingofthe head that plans; lor without the latter but little mote ciedit would be due to the person who exercises these atta than to the automaton lurk, who mechanically astonishes the woi Id at the game ol chess.

There is a philanthropy in the Mechanic Arts.

Wo do hope that our legislatute will direct their attention to the all important sub jeet of free schools. Our state it is true is in its infancy, but this should not prevent our fe presentatives from endeavouring to cteate a school fund, let it be ever so small IL vard coll go the first literary institution in the LJ States, owes its origin to a small sum donated by the colony of Massachusetts bay but one or two years after its settlement. Some time after, the Rev Mr. Harvard a pious and b nevolent clergyman made a liberal donation since that period, this institution ha flour ih.d and is now the pi ide and boast of the New Enghnd sta'cs Let this state make provision for free schools canst; at once a school tax to be levied, and if properlv and ju diciousiv managed, a lew vcars will present a wide difference as regards the intellectual c quiremcnts of the people What p it en? is there in the state who would not willingly be assessed a small sum, il by so doing his chil dren would receive literary iostt uction. :::ooo::,' 77 A.

If the dignity o! this mav ;ic measured by

ces of information, a good many mechanics add avjry laudable attention to bo-,ks to the periodical publications (,f the clay , and to the associations for mu ual imp;,vmcnt. Mchanics and ap' entires' libsarit-s are established, and mechanics' societies are lonncd, which, by inducing studious habits inter change of ideas, and collision sentiments, must tend 'o improve the minds of the mem hers in a high degree.
