The following is a specimen of a line of argument very common in our author's writings : Ministers talk about the human will as if it stood on a high look-out, with plenty of light, and elbow-room reaching to the horizon.

By OUT= WINDILL HOULE& Macmillan 11111 d CO. Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes is already favourably known to the English reading public by two plea sant books—" The Autocrat of the Breakfast Table" and " The Professor at the Breakfast Table." In both of these works there are the originality of thought, freshness of observation, and catholic breadth of sympathy which distin guish the most vigorous literature of America from that of the old country, as well as the occasional transcendentalism and grandiloquence, and a cer tain want of dignity and reticence, by which the former so frequently o ff e nd s th e taste and excites 1 the ridicule of English readers. Those who areac- quainted with the works just mentioned, and like them, will find a good deal of their quality diffused through this story, while to novel readers gene rally, chiefly solicitous about plot, characters, die., it Duty be safely recommended as an unusually in-' teresting and clever story of American life. The first thing that strikes one in "Elsie Venner" i. the similarity of its leading idea to that of the author's counturnan, Mr. Hawthorne's " Trans formation." We do not know whether this story, which was originally published in the Atlantic Munthly Itcanne, appeared before or aft e r M r . Hawthorne's novel, but it seems to us that the resemblance is too close to be accidental. In " Truunforiustluu" we had . young Italian, Win.. largely partook of the nature of a fawn, from which it is hinted, or suggested, orperhaps explicitl y stated—we forget which—he was lineally In " Elsie Veneer" we have • young American girl exhibiting in appearance and disposition a very decided dash of the rattlesnake—by which creature, it comes out at last, her mother had been fatally bitten before Elsie 's birth. The manner, too, in which the ides is carried out—the confused and doubtful impression which it is nou ght to create in the reader's mind—is the same in Dr. Holnies's as in Mr. Hawthorne's story. The similarity is too noticeable to be passed over, and though it is of little consequence which can claim originality in the matter, we wish to utter a word of protest, apart from the physiological questions involved, against what appears to be a growing tendency in American writers of fiction to overstep the modesty of nature by the introduction into their works of these unnatural and monstrous elements. Of the story itself, which is of very simple con struction, we shall say no more than that it gives a full and vivid, and, we doubt not, correct descrip tion of the sort of life that is led and the sort of characters that are to be met with in small country towns in certain parts of the United States. The English reader cannot fail to be amused by a state of society that is at once simpler and more artificial, more affected and more pretentious, but more transparent, both in its affectations and in its pre tensions, than that of his own country, as well as by some of the standards of " gentility " which are alluded to as accepted and familiar. It is a mark of good breeding, for in stance, we are informed, to be able to pronounce the word "view," while a whole class of outer barbarians is considered sufficiently indicated as the people who keep a "kerridge." In this re spect, though wanting the poetical grace and ten derness of that charming story " Elsie Venner " is more like Mr. Longfellow's "Kavanagh" than any other book equally well known on this side of the Atlantic. It is not, however, as a work of fiction that this book possesses its chief interest Those who have read his other works know that Dr. Holmes has merits both as a thinker and as an observes of society which niake the frequent disquisition on social, philosophical, and religious questions on which it is his habit to indulge valuable not only in itself, but as indicative of the state of opinion, on many most important subjects, of the freest and most thoughtful minds among his countrymen. Of course, to a certain extent, whether by reflection or by collateral development, or both, the newer forms and direc tions of thought in the younger branch of the family resemble those of the elder, but they are equally worth studying in their likeness and in their difference. Hare is the American version of our muscular Christianity. The young gentleman here described is not, as might be ignorantly sup posed, Mr. John C. Heenan in training, but a model teacher in an " educational institute :" Hs who should have enjoyed the privilege of looking upon Mr. Bernard Langdon the next morning, when his toilet was about half finished, would have had • vary plea sant gratuitous exhibition. First he buckled the strap el his trousers pretty tightly ; then he took up a patrol heavy dumb-bells, and swung them for a few minutes; then two great " Indian clubs," with which he enacted all sorts of impossible•looking feat. His limbs were not veiy large, nor his shoulders remarkably broad ; but if you knew as much of the muscles as all persons who look at statues and pictures with a critical eye ought to have learned, if you knew the trope:kis, lying diansond-shisped over the back and shoulders like a monk's cowl, or the deltoid, which caps the shoulder like au epaulette, or the triceps which furnishes the calf of the upper arm, or the hard•knotted biceps —any of the great seuiptural landmarks, In foot— you would have mid the. was a minty show of thaw be. Death the white satiny skin of Mr. Bernard Landau; sod if you had seen him, when be had laid down the Indian clubs, catch hold of • leather strap that hung from the beam of the old.fashioned coiling, and lift and lower himself over and over again by his loft hand akin', you might have thought it • very simple and easy thing to do, until you tried to do it yourself. Mr. Bernard looked at blineelf with the eye of an expert. " Pretty well !" be said " not so much faller lieu o ff I expected.* Then he set op his bolster in a very knowing soft of way, and delivered two or three blows straight se rules and swift as "Wks. " That will do," be said. Then, as if determined to make a es:Linty of his condition, he took a dysemouseter from one of the FIELD-LASE RAGOZD SCHOOLS. A meeting of the subscribers and friends of these schools was held In the large room, Field-lane, De Wednes day evening, for the purpose of awarding prime to 221 scholars who had kept their siteaticce with characters for twelve months and upwards. Lord pre sided. Mr. Tawell (the honorary secretary) reed the report, which stated that the annual distribution of prbes tai g the Bagged School Unicie is ragged schools to Union, to encourage echolais t seek employment and retain the same place twelve months, had already effected most psis fyiag results. The syste m had taught the importitM lemon to the lowest ranks in the social scale tW they held • position by their own exertions. The proms was the seventh year of the distribution of 'prises, sad to be eligible the recipients must have been in the situation for twelve months, and have a certificate skied by the employers for good conduct as well se industry. In the weed year of their establishment the Field-lon scholars carried off 62prises ; third year, 76 ; fourth yew, 112 ; fifth year, 148 ; sixth year (last year). 164 ; end tomight 209 prises would be received from the Union and 12 from the schools. Of that number 138 would receive for the firsttime 10a. in money, a Bible, and a certificate of good conduct ; 47 would receive ss. for the second time ; 18 ss. for the third time ; and six ss. for the fourth time--making • total of b 9& 10e., being 20 per cent. of the whole number of prime received this year by the 167 ragged schools of London. The committee still entertained the opinion expressed kat year, that the extension of the eligible age to ano th er year mold exercise • powerful incentive for good at one of the most critical periods of their lives. The model condition of these boys could not fail to excite sympathy, reerly half of them being deprived of both parents. The having been opened by Mr. J. Payne and Sir rO ee ard a t i r the chairman addressed the meeting, and said he hoped that the institution would not fag for want of material and motel support. It would be a burning and everlasting shame if the Field-lane or any other school in this country were to decline. He contended that no other school had done half so much good os the Field-lane School; therefore its promoters were bound to support it in its pre ant condition. HlVin4 dwelt for some time upon the evils ceased by over-population, he concluded by addressing a few words of advice to the children. The prises ban been presented, the proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman. REDEMPTION FILM SLAVENT. —A few months ego two men el ealour—Mr. Lewis Smith and the Rev. Bebbs Grem—earisid is this country from America, to solicit theaid of the benevolent for the purpose of redeem* from slavery the four children of Smith, who were slaves ha MO of the southern states of America.

(Stamped, ld. Additional.) (TWOPENCE. THE INDIAN FAMINE. held Hall, public meeting was - .in the Egyptian at the Mansion House, yesterday afternoon, at 3 o'clock, to devise immediate measures for alleviating the distress caused by the famine which is now prevailing in India. The Right /ion. the LORD MAYOR presided ; and amongst the gentlemen on the platform were the Marquis of Clan. Amide, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. R. W. Crawford, 31. P., Hon. A. Kinaaird, M.P., Colonel Sykes, M.P., Mr. Tito, M.P., Mr: arrow, M.P., Sir Herbert Palwardes, Sir Edward Ryan, Mr. Vansittart, M.P., Alder man fialomons, M.P., Aldermen Methi, ROBIN Piaui', balite@ Mr. W. Dent, Mr. Arbuthnot, and other gentle- I men interested in our commercial relations with India. The Rev. Mr. DANIA, chaplain to the Lord Mayor, having offered up a special prayer composed for the occasion, The LORD MATOR briefly introduced the subject, remark ing that be bad been requested to convene this meeting to consider the means of relieving the sufferers from that great calamity which bad lately fallen with unexampled severity on the po elation of • peat part of our Eastern Empire. He was much gratified by witnessing in thb numerous attendance that day a proof of the sympathy with which that object was regarded by the public, and be was especially pleased to meet on that occasion several most distinguished gentlemen, who were either members of her ll•Jsety's government, or menebros of ore or the other Roam of Parliament. The Chtocellor of the Exchequer bad kindly undertaken to irindthe End roodution. (Mem) Mr. Cuomo —My Lord Mayorand gentlemen, I shall submit to the meeting a reaolution which has bees pima in my hands, and the purport of which is as follows That this meeting, deeply sympathising with the distress arising from the devastating famine in the north-western provinces of India, and being desirous of aiding the noble exertions of the relief committee in Calcutta and Bombay in their endeavours to relieve the dietrein of their fellow subjects in India, now reduced to a state of appalling destitution, feels called upon publicly to record ita sense of this calamity, and its sympathy with their suffering fellow subjects." I ap. Cb.udl am right in saying that this large meeting been called at • moment's notice, but the subject on account of which it has been convened does not require much deliberation, and the citizens gene rally of London, and not least these leading penults' in all classes and all pursuits whops I have the sath6ction of see ing in this room, do riot, r trust, require much time to consoler whether they shall step foragariLand save from the horrors of famine th eir suffering fellow-creatures in India. (Cheen.) • My Lord Mayor, I cannot but be reminded by this noble boll, in which it has been my lot, and the lot of many I see around sue, to appear before, often and often, bow we came to this board to share the hospitality of the City of London in the time of many of your lordship's pre demeeon. We have enjoyed at the tables laid in this ball the good things which Providence has bounteously given for our sustenance and comfort. May our recollections of the facility with which we our selves arrive at such means of sustenance and comfort, and the abundance with which the blessings of God have been)OUroll upon us, move every heart among us with one thought and one desire to do what we can for an object, than which no more urgent or more noble one, I would venture to my, ever was proposed to an assembly of the citizens of London. (Mean.) I have nut come to this place to-day because I felt that it belonged peculiarly to me to do so, or that I had any peculiar quali fi cation for as sisting you in the high purpose of this meeting, but I was desirous that such a meeting, for such • purpose, should not pea, by without the appearance of at least one member of her Majesty's government—(abeers)—to testify in his own behalf, and I am certain I may my not leas on behalf of every one of my colleagues, our hearty approval of, and warm sympathy with, the object for which you have called your fellow-citizens together. (Cheers.) You are well aware that it is not noteßvary for me to apolotn their behalf. They have sought, or are seeking, c of air that relief from their parlizuneneary labours whi ch, after all, it is not unnatural they should seek ; and I am bound to say that I myself was minded in the execution of • similar intention, which I very gladly postponed to attend the' meeting. (Cheers.) My Lord Mayor, I shall not prw same to instruct the meeting on the particular case which has brought us here, for whatever may be required to be said upon the subjec t . you will hear much better from those who are acquainted with the particular circum shalom of India, and whose correspondence and constant intercourse with those who are resident in that count :a unwise ..aiaore ;ociii:atelnfoririailleteffl - ratomfirlffli me to say that I find it authentically stated to us that though the knowledge of this famine has come somewhat auddeely upon us, yet the features of it are so bread and so impelling that it must at once speak for itself. Fffteeu hundred thousand human heingeos it is stated to us on what I believe undoubted authority, have nothing under Providence but the hand of charity totrust to to nave them from the honors of a premature death. (Hear, hear.) That alone, I think, is such • basis of tact, such as ample justification for your assembling yourselves together, such a ground for appealing to the whole people of this country, whom on these ocouions the City of London ap propriately leads, that nothing that can be said even by others better informed than myself can add much force to the ideas conveyed by those few simple words. A million and • half of men, women, and children dependent on charity for the very means of subsistent* ' not in the general sense in which wo are accustomed to use them ternm, but for the means of rescue from a horribleandother. wise inevitable death. (Hear, hear.) The ties which con nect or with India are of a nature which render this if possible still more forcible than when ire. considered on general pounds. I confess I am not one of those who are in the habitual belief which has eo widely prevailed in this country, that it is to her con nexion with India, and oath like connexions, that England owes her material greatness, wealth, and prosperity. I tin strongly and deeply conviuced that the roots of the gr eatness of this country lie within the shores of these little Wards, and not beyond them, (Cheers.) At the same time, no man who in capable of appreciating what belongs to the welfare of mankind can fall to see that, with whatever feel ings it may have been, we have undertaken immense re. "possibilities respe ct to our transmarine possessions, and we come under the conditions of a sacred trust towards them which we cannot but disc e. (Hear.) We carry to India, and in constantly and rapidly increasing quantities, the productions of this county, and exchange them for the productions of India, and it is satisfactory, even on an oar arm of this kind, when we deplore the want of the neon. earl means of subsistence for a portion of our fellow creatures, to recollect that the pursuits in which the great ' bulk of the citizens of London are engaged are pursuits the daily and inevitable tendency of which is to render the occurrence of these great visitations more rare, and to miti mite their severity when they arrive. (Hear, bear.) Still they do arrive, and on this occasion they stare us in the face, and I ask whether on every graced, whether as men, as plinLnthroplets, as citizens, or as Christians, we ought not to rush forward te avail ourselves of the opportunity which is now afforded us to relieve this distress ? (Cheers.) For though no doubt we set • high value on our commerce with Indut, as we do on our commerce with the world— though that no doubt is the prevailing source of the wealth and power of thiscountry— we have more to do with India than to unite it in the bonds of commercial intercourse with ourselves, valuable as in my opinion those relations are. We have to carry to India more than wealth which our shores produce. We owe to India a boon of which we can never acquit ourselves by the mere exercise of political rule, and by our sway over the millions who inhabit that country. We must desire to com municate to them some better an higher gift. Often and often do we hear of the duty—and we hear rightly and ma. amiably of the duty and of the hope—a bright and glorious hope—that something may be done towards carrying Chris tianity into India. (Cheers.) And, my lord mayor, let me venture to say that in my opinion this meeting is no small miwrionary meeting. (Cheers.) You have difficulties in ' making known the gospel to the multitudes who inhabit India. You are beset by your own differences—you are beset still move perhaps by the fact that you exercise political authority over the people of India, because we are liable to the suspicion that when we attempt to teach them directly, an by that means attempt their conversion—when we teach or attempt to teach them the troths of the gospel, we are liable to the suspicion that it is with political objects and ends that we engage in that holy work. I do not state that as a reason why that work should not be prosecuted,. but as a reason why that proseco t Lion is materially end se riously injured. But here you have an opportunity to which those hindrances do not apply. t (Hear.) There are alignments in Christian life and in Chris tian works which nothing can resist. The residents of India have it in their power, each of them, to ' become a living sermon—each of them to be, as it were, an I apostle by his own life and convenation, and by exhibiting, in the face of the people of India, what are the doctrines of Christianity by letting them know what are the practic al results of C'hrhtianity. (Cheers.) And if we will, on this occasion, follow the example of that Saviour who was Con tent to spend His time and thought on earth in assuaging the WOOS which beset human life, I trust we may do some thing to convince our suffering and afflicted fellow-subjects that the religion we prams is indeed • religion of love, and by means which can excite no suspicion that we are doing , something to win them towards us. (Cheers.) My purpose is to bear willing and cordial testimony to the salreduess and worthies*, of the object for which this meeting has been convoked ; and on my own behalf and on behalf of those who, together with myself, form for a time the administration of the country, I earnestly commend it to , your hearty and cordial support i and I further venture to express a hope that this meeting s not to be the scoots pluihnteot, but only the and starting point of a great work—that the wads which. uttered within these will oetwthanelleerripreaal, ..tbeihrdtiechett:ll:4etonmshalsrfrititlinobenDuo,te:abitnhaleelecoudiadto national testimony, and make so m et hi ng like a national within the memory of any of us n ow present. I y osie be p s r: grt a i l th o m f e e (ac t moticu. o h ne: m o ars f uk lik. . ) t ob.in h d a o n d the country the served that the right hon. gentleman had spoken of the number of one million five hundred thousand Lumen beings in India computed to be actually perishing at this moment from the famine, and that was the estimate given at the date of the latertpreciesintelligenee ; butfronia paper which he held in his hand—the Friend of ladies—it appeared that the calamity was rapidly increasing. The statement in that paper was, that to the number which bad been previously stated as the p pulation of the famine.struck district must now be added three millions and • half more, • a total popelation of seven millions and • half ; and if was • that two millions and a half would represent that por tico of the population which was at present wholly incapable of self-support, either from want of means to purchase food, or from physical incapacity. He (Mr. Kinnaird) only hoped that this great calamity would have the effect of ra ling the attention of the government to the necessity of curing on works of irrigation and other improvements in India ; for if they had been able to extend the benefits of the Gimps Canal veer a larger part of the country, this evil would have been greatly diminished, if not altogether prevented. He therefore. that the advice of a great and good MAD Si Cotton, who lately returned result from lochs: would be fo ll owed in future, for it would result in a great saving of life. It should be mentioned, as a pies for this' appeal to English charity, that upon some former oceuicies, when • similar calamity betel Ireland and England, vast ennui of money were sent from India to our relief ; and in 1841 the committee, of which be was • member, received from Bombay alone 10,0001., besides which the eskers and Madras governmente mat large some direct to Ireland, and altogether he believed not less than :000/. was then re mitted from India to relieve the wants of our own people. The first resolution was carried by acclamation Sir E. RYAN said that hieing spent a portion of his life in India, be could understand what most be the deplorable condition of the natives of the North-West Provinces under this &diction. lie could also bear testimony to the fact just noticed, that the natives of India during the Irish hmin,e showed their sympathy with us, far habit(' heft told by an officer, that the native aepoys voluntarily subscribed considerable sums of money amongst themselves, and sent the money to their officers, to be remitted here to naive the famine in Ireland. He moved the second resolution " That in consideration of the extreme urgency of the case. and of the necessity of adopting immediate mowarell to relieve the misery now so unhappily existing, this meeting moat anxiously entreats the benevolent contributions of our fellow-citizens, and of the public at large ; and recom mends that enbscription hats be opened, and that all the London sod provincial bankers receive and remit such contributions to the Lord Mayor ; and that the amount so collected be despatched by each mail to India." He ob served that the first mail to leave this country for Bombay would go on the 3rd of next month, and he hoped some re mittances would be made by that mail, for the emergency would admit of no delay. Alderman Fume wooded the resolution, which, after a few words from Mr. Jossa, was pastel. Mr. R. W. CZAWFORD then moved the third resolution That this meeting is of opinion that all the cities and towns in the United Kingdom should be animated to co operate with the committee now appointed, is their e ff orts to carry out the above object." - Having spent a consider able portiou of his life in India, and having his fortunes still bound up entirely with the welfare of that country, he felt a strong interest in this matter. Since an allusion bad been made to the public works, he Wet state that be had heard one fact with much pleasure—that the Great Gangs. Canal bad actually been successful to a great extent in pre venting • great amount of distress, which would otherwise have aoginsated the misery actually experienced at this time. He was told that canal bad been very serviceable, by retaining in cultivation during this great drought no lase an extent of land than was represented by produce to the value of two millions sterling. Such a fact should be to the government a powerful inducement to continue to printouts works of that nature. (Chain) It must, indeed, be re- . membered that whatever might be done here in this case could only be supplementary to the action of the govern meat itself, as the government being in India the universal landlord, was bound to perform the duties of an owner of the soil, Jo providing relief for such a calamity as this. Mr. Vainness, in seconding the resolution, said that be happened to be himself in India in the your 181111, and then withered the horrors of a famine simi lar to the present. He believed that the Indian govern ment, as represented by Mr. Edmonstone in the North. Western PrOViDOSI, and Sir Robert Montgomery in the Pun janb, was making great efforts to deal with the emergency, but their activity was paralysed for want of money, and responded to this Cann snob i iniddee tY dreknqjoie sib suggested that, in order to save time, the money subscribed should be seat out by the very next mail to Bombay and Lahore, instead of sending it to Colonel Baird Smith by the circuitous route of Calcutta. The Rev. Mr. HODGSON, as he was the brother-in-law of Mr. Edmonstooe, who bad just been named, asked leave to express his own obligations to India; for, though but • poor country clergyman, be had acquired a comfortable position by two successive marriages, and both the first and the se mod lady be married were the daughters of gentle men who had been enriched in India. Hu read a sentence or two out of • letter of Mr. Edmonstone's, which he had jolt received, and in which that gentleman said, " The dis tress is 110 A fearful ; may God help and succour us in time I It it heartrending to know of this enormous dis tress, and that, do what we will, our efforts must fall short of the necessity. Besides my anxiety, it adds to my work, and it must add to the embarrassments of the government. What with the loss of land revenue and the direct expendi ture of the government to keep the people from starving, this great misfortune will not cost lass than"—• sum whiein be (the Rev. Mr. Hodpon) thought it might not be quite prudent to mention. (Hear, hear.) Mr. W. Dar, who spoke next, said that in India the go vernment were endeavouring to do all they could, by com mencing public works, and giving employment to the peo- ple, as well as by opening centres for the distribution of food ; but it was impossible for the inhabitants of many villages to assemble at the places appointed. Mr. ORWSON then moved the appointment of a commit tee to carry out the objects of the meeting. He observed that although the poor creatures now suffering, who were of the agricultural clam in India, were not connected with the mutineers, there was an impression amongst themselves that this visitation was a judgment which had come upon them for that mutiny. He would remind the contributors to this fund that according to the rate of wages In the earth-western provinces of Lodi every Si. given that day would provide mahatma for five people for three months. The motion, having been seconded by Mr. J. A. ARBITER so?, and supported by Mr. FREER, was agreed to. The Marquis Of IMANRImane then moved that the thanks of the meeting he given to the Lord Mayor, for call ing this public meeting at the Mansion-home to inaugu rate such an important work. He observed that they were now called upon to give their assistance to a great multitude, or he might rather say to an unfortunate nation of men who were in such extreme distress from want, that they were actually dying the fearful death of starvation ; and it was to relieve that suffering people of India that the English public were now appealed to by every motive of humanity and policy, of Christian duty and justice. In addition to these general claims, they could not but feel a heavy re sponsibility in this instance ; for, without saying • word of what was political, be must remark that it was impartible not to admit the justice of an allusion just now made to the defective internal oommunications of that country which was now subjected to such a grievous visitation. At the present time undoubtedly, as Mr. Ili innaird had said, if we bad paid more attention to the providing works of irrigation, mash, railroads, and the Wass of transport throughout India, it would have been easier thou be was afraid it would now be found to alleviate the great suffering that existed there. (Cheers.) Colonel Sir H. EDWARDES seconded the vote of thanks—. firstly, as he said, on behalf of the Indian people, who mass yet unrepreseated, but whom he trusted we should one day sea tee, if not in the English parliament, yet i n the cement of India. It was a happy sada cor dial thing or the Englishman to show to India that, after having gone out there to remove the anarchy of the Ma- Manmade° and Hiodoo powers over that land, he could s m with the sorrows of its people. Aod, as an ' man, he thanked the Lord Mayor for saving tbi country from a great reproach and disgrace, which we had but narrowly escaped ; for it was at first proposed that the ears of England should be stopped against the cry of mil lions now perishing ia India, and the Lord Mayor was ad vised that if he caned • meeting there would be no response to such en appeal. By the course which he had taken, with sounder judgment, this meeting had been brought together, and its example would be followed else where. (Cheers.) Mr. DALABHAR NIOROJT, as a native of India, begged permission to thank the Lord Major and the gentlemen who had taken part In this meeting, for their kindness in coming forward to help his distressed fellow-eonntrymen out there. As the Irish famine had been mentioned, and the feeling of the people in India when they heard of it, he could assure the English public that he remembered well how from the highest to the lowest in Indio—front Sit Jameetjse Jeejeebhoy . himself down to the poorest native+ there was but one feeling of sympathy and regret.
