CROTCHET CASTLE.

nv THE AUTHOR OF "HEADLoNG HALL"
Were we TO be asked our private opinion as tc
vbo;s the wittiest writer in Englond, we should
cav. MIR. Peacock. Having. BY thus expressing
II. made 1t also our public one, we are bound t.
shew cause, which we think we can most sat,sfac
toriIv do, from the little volume before u.s.
We proceed forthwith to the sense and science,
the Whims and oddities of Crochet Castle-the
which is the castelated dwelling oil a rich and
retired citizen, who has taste tor intellectual So
ciety. and gives dinners and good vines; thus
taking very rational method OF securing it,
Hinder his roof are assembled &" Mr.. Mac Quedy,
the modern Athenian, who lays down the law
alb nut every thing, and therefore may be taken
tounderstand every thing, He turns ali the at
fairs of this world into questions of buying and
selling. He is the spirit of the Frozen Ocean to
every thing like romance and sentiments he con-
lrnses their volume of steam into drop of cold
water in moment. Next Is MIR. Ski
omar, a sort of postical philosopher curious com
mound of the intense and the mystical lie abo-
inmates all the ideas of Mr.. Mac Quedy, and
settles every thing by sentiment and intuition. -
Another is Mr.. Cbainmail, an atlmirer of Chival.
rv and one who sholds that the best state of
..ciety was that of the twelfth century, when no.
thing was going forward but fighting, feasting, and
praying, which he says, are the three great pur-
noses for which man was made. He laments bit
terly over the invention of sunpowder, steam and
gas. which he says have ruined the world"
Then there is musical genius, geographer,
divers other representations Of the various absurd
opinions now ailcat. and though last, not least,
the, Rev. DIR. Foliiott, who, we take it, is the in
carnation of good sense antNa little good living.
And now Tor a miscellaneous collection Of
good things. Mr.. Crochet is Scotchman,
whose success in England ELECTS the following
auecdote:-s. 1t is said, that a Scotchman, re-
turning home after some years residence in Eng
land. being asked whathe thought of the English,
ans erred sThey hanna over muckle sense. but
ihey are unco' Draw people to hive amang;' which
would be a very good story, if il were not rem
dered apocryphial by the incredible circumstance
Of the Scotch,nan going back"
The arms he adopts are excellent 6 He found
II essential to his dignity to furnish himself with
a coat Of arms, which, after the proper ceremo-
MES (payment being the principal he obtained,
yidelicei, crotchet rampant, in sharp-arms,
three empty blatders, turgescent, to shew now
opinions are Toned; three bags OF gold, pendant
to shew how they are maintained; three naked
swortls, tranchant, to shew how they are admin ,
Istered: and three BARRIERS blocks, gaspant, to
,hew how they are swallowed"
Sos his reason for widowhood. Mr.. Crotch

As something IF literary curiosity, we close
our Weeks Review with the following fragment,
taken from the Greene County Advertiser of last
Wednesday, Of ballad of the year 1877, written
on the dissolution of John Adams Cabinet, soon
after he became President. 1t was during the
quasi war with France, when Hamilton, Picker
Ing, Dexter. and McHenry, dissatisfied with what
they deemed the too compliant policy of the Pre-
sitent towards France, resigned. The Repub'i-
can Party had their eyes upon Thomas Jefferson
as the successor Of Adams in the Presidency

.. The number of vessels arrived at our port with
in few weeks past, is almost unprecedented, and
the Custom House during the whole Of the month
of April has been crowded from opening till clos
ing; the clerks have been occupied not only dur
ing the regular hours, but to keep up with the
great press of business, have been engaged till
near midnight. On Saturday last 357 entries
were made and 70 vessels were cleared-bcins
a greater number than ever was known in any
one day before. When the account for April,
of the duties secured, and the business done,
shall be made up. we believe it will be found to
exceed that of any previous months in the annals
of the Custom House."
