Among the visitors at lile Seal d Government, We observe the disti,. gulsbed President of the America Philosophical Society, Mr. DuPoNcEAr. of philadelpia. This venerable elf. Zen has incurred the fatigue and dis. comfort of the journey from Philade], phia hither. during the recent rigorous weather, for the patriotic purpose of promoting, so far as he can. the adop- ton Of the measure proposed during the last session of Congress. but not f. f. nally acted on, for securing 10 our coun. try perfect and extended lsnowledqe of the Silk culture, an opportunity fer acquiring which is now offered by the presence oi i,it. iniit 9 g iioa,ergue. a native of France, particularly and perfectly acquainted with the art. Few persons. not well informed on the subject. can appreciate the value of this knowledge. and the usual difficulty of obtainingper. sons who can inpart it, whence onIY they can be obtalued, nalnely, from France; and 1t would be national loss of incaleulable magnitude to allow the present opportunity of securing t toes. cape The estimahle eiiizen, lA.. Ms DupoNcEAu, has devoted much of lis valuable time,and considerable eypepse for several years, in disinterested q. forts to avert this loss from his adopted country, by himself furnishing employ ment to Mfr. D'Homei gue, and pre- venting his departure from the Unied States, ii the hope that the National Government would adopt some plan of rendering the skill of the latter perma- nently available 10 the Union; and we trust that we shall see the zeal of tho venerable patriot triumphant, and his last days made happy by the complete success of his efforts.
