Voice of praise , &c . In this , and a thousand other instances , we see exemplified the pleasing truth that a government founded ' upon principles of reason , truth and justice , is not only a direct blessing to " a community , but indirectly the means of diffusing those liberal opinions and charitable feelings upon which the happiness of society depends more than upon legislative enactments and police regulations A .

Sir , YOUR pleasant American correspondent and censor has delighted us all with his information ( p . 554 ) regarding the Jew $ in the United States . Israel appears to be domieiliated in that happy land . I learn also from Mr . IngersolPs Oration at New York , that the Roman Catholics are quite at home in Republican North America , and are not only good citizens but also zealous patriots . He dwells upon the fact as if it were new or surprising . Why should it be so esteemed ? The Roman Catholics are men , and there is nothing in their religion to render them indifferent to the rights of property and the invaluable advantages of personal freedom . Maryland , a Catholic colony , set one of the first examples of religious liberty amongst
our American brethren . Of this , I have been agreeably reminded , lately , hy a volume of American music that has been put into my hand ? . It is Catholic music , published in Baltimore , about the year 1805 , consisting of c < Masses , Vespers and Litanies , Hymns , Psalms , Anthems and Motetts , composed , selected and arranged for the use of the Catholic Churches in the United States of America , and respectfully dedicated , by permission , tn > the Right Rev . John Carrol , D . D ., Bishop of Baltimore , by Benjamin Carr . ( Price , bound , one Eagle . ) ' * These «• Masses /* &c , contain a " Prayer for the Commonwealth , " well set to music by " R . Taylor . " The words ai e as follows :
Save , O L , ord ! the Commonweal , ket thy people d rights prevail , l ^ t Columbia trust in Thee , To whom . she owes her Liberty .

Dr . J . Jones on Mark and Luke being' the Two Disciples ( hat fled to Emmans . PTT 1 HE Apostle Paul , as not having JL himself witnessed the works and sayings of Jesus , was attended in his travels by a person who had been a . witness of them . This was a wise , precaution , in order to furnish the most satisfactory evidence to those whom in his discourses he sought to convert . John Mark at first seemed to have fulfilled this office for the Apostle ; and hence we might infer ,, that this evangelist had attended the
ministry of his Divine Master , A circumstance , however , occurred , which separated Paul and Mark ; and Luke succeeded him in accompanying the Apostle ; and from this we might conclude , that this evangelist also had ranked with the disciples of Christ * But we have his own declaration , unequivocally asserting his constant attendance on the ministry of Jesus .
ror he asserts , in the introduction to his gospel , that he accompanied with close attention all the particulars respecting the Word j and that this was the circumstance which induced him to undertake his narrative . He , moreover , fortifies his authority by premising that eye-witnesses and ministers of the word " delivered them to us /* meaning by us , in the second verse
