Hamilton JLcctnrea. The third lecture of the course was delivered last evening, by the lion. Levi Woodbury, of the U. S. Senate, and was received with marked approbation by a large auditory.

Some fourteen years had elapsed since we last this distinguished gentleman. He was then attending a lecture to Sabbath School children, of which his little boy was one and the way he plumped the siller" halves into the contribution box, when the collector made his appearance, was a pattern to the congregation. Since that period he has been subjected to the drudgery of secretaryships and different grades nf legislative duty, sufficient, one would think, to steal the color from his cheek, the vigor from his but such has not been the case. On the contrary, he appears as fresh and vigorous as ever and although evidently a student, it is plain that inquiry and investigation are in perfect consonance with his nature. After announcing his subject the lecturer remarked that it had been an interesting inquiry in all ages, What is truth viewed in reference to politics, history, and religion.

And much labor had been expended upon the questions, whence we came, whither do we tend and what are the causes that advance or retard the progress of our race 1 The uncertainties of history, as bearing upon these points, were deserving of attention. Of the acts of monarchs and the details of battles, history was sufficiently full but not so in regard to that moral movement of the world which overthrew systems of government, and constructed others in their stead. The very progress of the race was in SjT ST. JAMKa' CHURCH, Jay street. The Rev.

Mr. DEASE will nrench in St. James1 Church on Sunday next, the 4th instant, at half, past 10 o'clock, a. m. and al 3 p.m.

another discourse will be du.i by tho Rev. Mr. WILSON, from Zancsvillc, Ohio. J2 2t obtain an acquaintance with the every day facts and occurrences of Jerusalem during the life of Christ, as they might have been recorded in a newspaper, and transmitted' down to us. And how much more satisfactory would be a certain description of Pompeii, than the curiosities merely, which alone furnish the meagre records of its existence.

If experiments and principles affecting the happiness of man had been faithfully preserved in books instead of those details of cruelty which emblazon the fame of monarchs, how much better, would have been the puhlic feeling. A vitiated ta6te had preserved the startling to the exclusion of the useful the feats of an Alexander, who desolated the earth, rather than the acts of a Franklin, a Watt, a Faust, and a Whitney, whose labors had contributed to elevate the condition of the race. Indeed, we could well afford to blot from the world's history the names of one half its heroes, could we learn who was the inventor of a single implement of husbandry. Had we known earlier, from a careful preservation of facts, what we now know of our own organization, and the substances most in unison with it, how much greater would have been our progress. But there had been an entire loss of two thousand years' of human history.

In some portions of the globe neither books nor manuscripts had been preserved, but instead thereof were trophies of marble, and similar perishing records. What genius dictated the splendor of Palmyra, or those massive and elegant fabrics which were scattered over Central America No sound was heard from Africa's interior, from Eastern Pagodas, or the solem druidical groves of Germany. Darkness profound enveloped the antediluvian age. and save what could be gleaned from Holy Writ, its history was a blank How many brilliant minds have been crushed we cannot tell but sleep on, yegrea; and good spirits of past ages 'twas the fault of others that your thoughts and actions not been permitted to improve and adorn the world. The speaker then proceeded to notice the means which should be adopted for curing these evils, among which he enumerated a regard for the excellencies rather than the mere outward acts uf men an avoidance of haste and increased research more singleness of purpose, and a discrimination between the certain and nncer in regard to material facts.

Another aim should be to induce those possessed of interesting facts in relation either to individuals or discoveries, to give them to the world. No one should despair, in view of the efforts now making, the world over, loamend the deficiencies of the past. Historians must cast away all prejudice, and warm both head and heart with a sense of accountability, and a reverence for truth. Existence would thus become a continual school or laboratory, in which experiments would be constantly making for public improvement, until the whole race should attain once more its original unity. We have the best reason to believe that the world never will be, as it never has been, stationary, but that it will constantly tend onward and upward till the final consummation.

The speaker concluded with a brief recapitulation of the circumstances which rendered America the nation, of all others, to fix a high standard in this matter. S.

The same nation is spoken by Mr. Stephens. Their number is estimated at thirty thousand their secluded mode of life mates it almost im pbssible to arrive at anything like correct iin preissions respecting them.

The Indians of fYticatari and the neighboring provinces have Tieeh seen in conversation with persons from this, district they, however, appear to know as of the people of whom I speak as others. Could'a friendly intercourse, by any possibility, beestablisbed with this surprising country, there is scarely a doubt that a complete knowledge of the former inhabitants of the immense ruins scattered throughout the country would That their temples and records remain in safety, and are capable of speaking to 'posterity, there can scarcely be a question. "I doubt if the above be a true estimate of tbeir numbers, since they have been enabled to 'eftstain themselves for ages (no knows how long) against enemies and intestine wars and 'dissolution It would be more reasonable to suppose that they are the outcast.

The gathered fragments ot Palenque, and other places of equal importance, may 'have concentrated their broken strength within the boundaries of these hilis; and, under the strong impulse of desperation, they may have preserved their nationality, in deiiince cf all the force that surrounded them.

It may well universal astonishment, when the fact becomes known that there actually exists, within a territory of five hundred miles, a distinct people, that have governed the.nselves for ages and that they continue to do so without, assistance or protection. It would be a lesson to to ascertain how they have managed their self governing principles, and how they 'have preserved their national individuality. Three centuries have transpired since tbe conquest; and, if neither Yankee nor Irishman 'have found his way among the Lacad rones before this, it'deserves the careful consideration both of the psychologist and the statesman." and Woman. It is hard thai, with man, talent, combined with perseverance, should be almost omnipotent to overcome obstacles the numerous and formidable; while, in the Mp: of woman, it 16 ulcti ttlllJlIy Useless. The spirit of enterprise that characterises the present age, gives to man "ample room and verge enough" to pursue any pian thai genius may suggest.

The world is ail before him. From pole to pole he choose whether to add to the history of his species by voyages and discoveries, or, by speculations at home, direct the movements of argosies. In literature he has only to give to the world the treasures of his mind, the musings of his solitude, or the recollections of his youth, and let it but bear the stamp of genius it wiil meet with an "all hail!" But it is not so with woman. Few and nigged are the paths by which her genius, unaided and alone, may climb even to competence. Natural timidity, a retired education, the fear of encountering the prejudice that has so long condemned her to a subordinate rank of intellect and which, by a strange perverscness, finds a charm in the helplessness of those beings from whom at times are demanded self denial and exertion, all cast a spell around her, which is seldom broken by her single efforts.

There are not more "mute, inglorious Milton" in a country church yard, than among the number of women doomed to the exercise of some spirit breaking monotonous craft, in order to procure means for the support, of existence, and who, from a reverse of fortune, fesltlieir highest, aspirations, their brightest dreams of fancy, chilled and dispelled by anxiety about to morrow's fare." volved in doubt and untold evils had resulted from the want of a correct knowledge of those great principles which had changed the aspects and conditions of empires.
