been more acceptable to many of our readers, than
the documents growing out of Mr. Kings case, for
midable in length, and requiring to be comprehend
ed. attentive exercise of the understanding. But
with convictions of the character of the case
produced in the ftst place by learning that the vr-
gnis Senators, and more particularly Mr.. Tnzewell
had thoroughly investigated Mr.. Kings official trans
actions, and pronounced him free of the crimes mpu-
ted to hnl--more and persuaded of this truth,
by the full and complete explanation, which he has
given to evey chargeand satisfied further, that the
motive for sacrificing him, was as infamous as the
tool employed to consumnate tive could not do
less as just men, than contribute our mite towards
diffusing the vndication of the injured. In this
course we feel doubt of having received the ap.

An English trapeller, who had never been out of the sound of the Bow bells until he took 1t into his headto cross the ~Hatlantic to take notes,'' passed through one of the Southern States, that he might have proof positive that the horrible practice of gouging was in vogue among people who cali them selves Christians He arrived at small village on the banks of the Savannah, bearing a political (not apoetica9 name, and also the reputation of being the most riprorious and T,tnablt,,kcioats place 4n all the State.

The e. vaning being chill and damp the land lord invited his guest to take a seat at the fire which was nearly hidden from view by set of sir .footers, aud salt-ri- ger alligators. He succeeded, after some trouble in obtaining seat. at the pe- Til of having his saiptioas garments bes- battered with tobacco juice, when, to his utter astonishment, mine host called to lsam to put an armtul of truck upon the fire. The curiosity of our travel Ter was not to be satisfied; lsam enter ea with an armful of pine knots, and threw on the fire. 2" Sdeath, mister, exclaimed the astonisfled guest, "do you call that truck9"

SHAKESPEARE AND BYRON.

That Byron wrote best when he wrote of himself and of his own, has proba- bly been already made sufficiently ap- parent. In this respect he stands alone and apart from all other poets and this pecullarity extended much farther over all his works, than merely to those which may be said to have required him to be thus personal. The great distinction, indeed, of his merits consits in that sin gularity. Shakespeare, in drawing the materials of his dramas from tales and history, has, with wonderful art, given from his own invention and imagination the httest and most appropriate senti- ments and language; and admiration at the perfection with which he has accom- plished this, can never be exhausted. The difference between Byron and Shakespeare consists in the curious acci- dent, fit may be so called, by which the former was placed in circumstances which taught him to feel in himself the very sentiments that he has ascribed to his characters. Shakespeare created the feelings of his, and with such ex- eellenee, that they are not only proba- ble to the situations, but give to the per- sonifeations the individuality of living persons. Byron's are scarcely less 50; but with him there was no invention. only experience, and when he attenps to express more thar he has himself known, he is always comparatively fee hle.-Gah.

T Royal Eagourite.-The favourite valet de chambre of the King of Spain died fately-of apoplexy, it is said, but rumor also assigns his death to his own hand, In g fit ofycxation, in consequence of the following incident. The king and queen being engaged in a game ot chests together, Ferdinand rose from the table for the purpose of quitting the room for few minutes, and desired his fayorite, Mefas who was present, to continue the game with her majesty. To this the queen objected in the most lively and pointed terms, referring 10 the offensive impropriety of a common "domestic" being placed on such terms of familiarity with the wife of his mas ter; and she invited the Count de Tran stamare (the only other person present. to continue the game in the absence of the king. hferas immediately retired, and was the next morning but one, found dead.-L'terary Gazeste.
