And this Newspaper Press. obviously
does not sustain to society merely the re-
lation of a public informer; it is, pream-
iuently, a great mmltser, in our midst
It not only communicates intelligence of
passing events,-many of which are des-
tined to be full of historical and perma-
nent interest, ‘and, incidentally, conveys
much useful it-nowledge,-—it "is, also. a
constant stimulus to the popular mind.-
It gives fresh food for thought, and a
fresh impulse every day, to the intellect
of society at large. It presents, for our
consideration, topics requiring,ofteti, the
most profound study, and,» nearly always
some subject of interest; thus counterac-
ting the natural tendencies to mental
sluggishness, indifference, and "waste of
undeveloped intellectual strenth. It gives
by the comprehensiveness of its range of
themes, a corresponding breadth to pop-
ular thinking; and thus overcomes the
universal disposition to become localized
in our views, and to occupy the mind
solely upon present, trivial concerns.
‘ll’ ”“ It refines the public taste, by calling
atteuiioii to the works of genius, wheth-
er they be wrought in harmonious verse,
upon the glowing canvass, or in almost
breathing stone. Indeed, we can but
hint. at a few of the methods by which
the Newspaper Press vitalizes the pub.
lic mind. It is ‘so palpable, that we need
not dwell upon the details of the fact.-—
In this respect it does a good of immeas-
urable exteut. We cannot be too grate-
ful my brethren, for this, steadily qiiick-
euiug power. »
lNFLI'l~}.\'CE OF THE PRESS ON SOCIAL CHATKACTI-Ill.
2. Notice, too, the influence of the
Newspaper Press, in making society and
the individual man, everywhere, in the
sense cosmopolite. The fresh sheet
which comes reeking to your door, at
the same time that it makes you acquain-
ted with what your fellow men around
you are doi-ug-—increases your personal
interest of them as men. When it is an
nounced through the Press. that some
honest, hard working mechanic, in our
midst, has unexpectedly come into pos-
session of a large estate, we all share in
his satisfaction; or when, by -robbery or
industrious citizen are swept away, all
hearts are pained at the misfortune. So,
on a broader scale, when either great
success or dire calamity is experienced
by our countrymen far off as well as near,
the intelligence flashed at once at our
fireside, makes us brethren with them in
joy or in distress. ‘We have, but just
now, had a striking illustration of this,
in the affliction and necessities of our
whole southern coast, and the lively sym-
pathies and. generous "aid that responded
to the sad ‘and harrowing tale. It can-
not be diiiputed that the rapidity of corri-
-munication, through the’ telegraph and
the press, had much to do with swelling
the contributions that -were so promptly
made. As we were reading dayby day
of the ravages of the destroyer, down to
the veryprevious night, we seemed, tho’
more than a thousand miles removed, to
be actually passing thosedeserted streets
and looking in upon those desolate homes
and that great tribulation and ‘anguish
made them all “to be our neighbors and
friends. ‘ -
And the principle is operative as res.
pects the entire race to which we be-
long. The more we know of the condi-
tion and fortunes of remote nations and
tribes, the more constantly we are infor-
medof the good or ill that befalls them
the nearer arewe drawn to them in syrii:
patliy and -love.‘ We ‘come to feel more
and more,- that. whatever out-ward differ-
ence between us there may be, we are
yet all descended from the same paren'
tage, have a cominouheart and soul, -are
living in the main :1 "similar earthly life
and we are alike immortal. And',1my
brethren, hewhose tniud, whose nature
has thus been brought into liwely unison
with the varied experience of all hiskind
is in the best and truest sense a citizen
of the world. ‘He is the genuine cosmoi
Pfllite. He may never have gone, per’-
sonally beyond theprecincts of the city
in which he dwells, -but his heart is at
home in every land and-"every clime from

character as leaves little hope of a change
in the Emperor’s inintl.
It is stated that -the. popular excite-

and the French government anticipates
that an explosion of such a kind may
take place as shall force the Emperor to
make a formal declaration of war before
even his plans are arranged.

taining an expression of public sentiment
in regard to the propriety in endeavor-

change in their proposed route to Fishkill
by passing through the towns of Dunba-

line to New York. ‘ .
The meeting was large and enthu-

who have the ability to take stock to a
large extent in a Railroad. The meet-
appointsd a delegation of two from each

Suicide in IV:-ston.
A young lady minted Betsey Ann Tharp,‘
aged about 2'2, committed suicide on Saturday
morning last, by throwing herself into the
Mill Pond, near Davis‘ Mill, in that town. She
had appeared melancholy for some time owing
to adisappointtncut in a‘ love ullisir. but no
symptoms of any mental aberation had been
discovered until the evening previous, when
she acted strangely, and talked iucohereutly.—
She retired however, with her mother, who is a
widow woman, living alone, and rose about 2
o’clock Saturday morning, insisting upon its
being daylight, and desiring her mother to get
up. Her mother endeavored to pcrsut-.de her
to return to bed, but to no purpose, and short-
ly after hearing her go out, she, fearing seine-
thing might be wrong, sprang up and went to
the door, and called her several times, but re-
ceiving no answer, she became alarmed, and at
once went to the house of her son, living but a
short distance, and aroused him, when they
both returned and instituted 9. general search,
and found her a few moments after flouting on
thentop of the water, but 8llIll‘9l_V dead.

him to come immediately to West Farms. He
