Is preparing to return TO Europe. Ii Is NOT SO
The Doctor, whatever intentions he may hereafter
entertain with respect TO returning to Europe dor
not at present mean to break up the arrangements
which he has made for remaining in this counuy,
which we are very happy to be able to annou nee
His eminent talents as a consulting engineer have
been called into requisiton in many i'm mportant
cases, and his departure would be regarded in ma
ny quarters with very great regret


DR.. Lardner ls, we also learn, at preseut engaged
in preparing for the press full and rate report
oil the scientific lectures, which he has delivered in
this country and the work, need hardly say, will
be regarded as a very valuable aud welcome addi-
ton to our scientific literature. These lectures
will constitute series OF practical Teatises on the
most important subje cts of natural philosophy which
cannot fail to be extf emely acceptable and useful
supplying desideratum which has been heretofore
very much deplsrcd. In addition t., his labors IN
science, DR.. Lardner has been collecting ard ar
ranging materials for an elaborate work ON the
United States which besides the Interesting narra-
tive details Of his extended tour throughout the
Union, will contain the observau ons of an enlarg.
ed, cultivated, and experienced mind in the work


ing of institutions the leating tras, of the ma


ona character and the state and prospects of
cal condition in all thc departments of human life
work Of this charaf fer, from the hand OF compe-
tent observer, will be- OF the greatest possible inte
rest. The works of Marryait, Trollope, Dickens
and others Of that liz, have been mere caricatures
of American life and manners as presented to the
traveller in railroad cars and canal boats We have
not yet been favored with the fruits of calm, dis
passionate and Intelligent observation of the state
OF society in this country, by philosophic liberal
and expanded mlnd In DR.. Lardner's forthcoming
work we expect to find the results Of such observa-
ton. The Doctor is me n of the world, free from
prejudice and cant, keen and practised observer,
and possesses great descriptive powers. His book
will both entertain and instruct II will consist
probably of three volu mes, and will be ready for
the press at no very di slant day.


Won Raumer, the russian traveller, is also en-
gagged in a work on tile United States, which we
have good reason to expect will be written in an
intelligent, discrmiI iating and impartial spirit.
From the labors OF hoth these distinguished men,
directed to the practical operation of the institu-
tons of this country, and the social condition OF its
people, we anticipate results highly conducive to
the progress Of free government. On the Euro
pean mind, the influence of republican America s
every year waxing greater and greater, and faith
full representation of our state and prospects, by
men Of comprehensive intellect, and sound and un.
biased Judgment, will contribute, in no mean de-
gree to the augmentation of that growing influence


We shall, therefore, wait with much interest for


the completion of Dr. Lardner's labors in this new


and important field.


FASHIONABLE MovEMENTs.-Ita appears that Paris,


Berlin, st. Petersburgh, &C., are to be the centres


of attraction in the ensuing fashionable season.


Many of the haMt ton of this city and vicinity are


now preparing to travel thither. ST. Petersburg


the chief city Of the Gear, is to become Paris to
the Americans.


Already, those who intend to visit these cities OF


Europe, are beginning to he on the wing. The


packet ship Montezuma, Capt. Lowber, will sail
on the 10th instant, with many Of her beautiful
state rooms occupied by those who have obtained


an enviable position in the fashionable circles Of
this city for their intelligence and purity Of cha.
racter. We learn that among those who have
taken passage in that fine packet, are Charles
Lamson, Esq, and lady, the latter the beautiful
daughter of Charles H. Marshall, Esq, and one
who is universally loved and esteemed. She will
be an ornament to American society abroad.


Their party selected this ship because of her beau-
ty, the experience Of her worthy captain, and Of
her name. 1t will be recollected that Montezuma
was the first leader of the ton in America
he fourished in the sixteenth century, and
was of the chivalry Of that age. There is now


feather, once belonging to his court dress, framed
and hanging up in the main saloon of the Monte.


yuma. 1t gives an impulse to the ship and captain


that is sufficient 10 send them across the Atlantic
in fifteen days or less.


We also learn that the Queen of the West, an
other famous packet, to sail next May, has seve-
raj of her state rooms already engaged. Judge
Kent and family are among those who have taken
p assage in her.


POLITICAL PARSoNs.-At a recent meeting in
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, for the organization Of
the s'native" movement there, but which turned
out a signal failure, we find that parson made


himself very conspicuous, and offered up prayer,
imporing the blessing Of Heaven on the occasion.


This ls if possible, still more reprehensible than
the conduct OF Bishop Hughes in Carroll Hall,
when he delivered political harangue 10 an excl
ted crowd Of his flock. These praying political
parsons are amongst the greatest curses to pure
Christianity in this latter day Of wlckedness and
folly.


MORE "NATIvE" DKcENcY.-One of the "na.


tive papers in Philadelphia says that it is impossi-
BILE for Mayor Harper to keep the streets Of this
city clean SO long as $50 many filthy foreigners
walk on them" Such is sample of the respec.
liability and decency of these eminenty patriotic


individuals, who arrogate to themselves the exclu.
