THE PHILOSOPHIC COBLER.

Though not very fond Of seeing
pageant myself, yet | am generally
pleased with being in the crowd which
sees it; it is amusing to observe the eff
feet which such a spectacle has upon
the variety of faces; the pleasure it ex,
cites in some, the envy in others, and
the wishes it raises in all. With this
design ! lately went to see the entry Of
foreign ambassador, resolved to make
one in the mob, TO shout as they shout
cd, to fix with earnestness upon the
same frivolous objects, and participate,
for while, the pleasures and the wish
cs of the vulgar.
Struggling here for some time, in or
der to be first to see the cavalcade as
it passed, some one Of the crowd I'M
luckily happened to tread upon my
shoe, and tore it in such manner, that
was utterly unqualified to march for
ward with the main body, and obliged
to fall back in the rear. Thus render
cd incapable of being spectator Of
the show myself, ] was at least willing
to observe the spectators, and limped
behind. like one of the inyalids which
follow the march Of an army.
in this plight, as was considering
the eagerness that appeared on every
face, how some hustled to get foremost,
and Others contented themselves with
taking a transient peep when they
could; how some praised the four black
servants that were stuck behind one of
the equipages, and some the ribbons
that decorated the horses necks in an
other; my attention was called off to an
object more extraordinary than any
that had yet seen; A poor Cobler sat
in his stall by the way-side, and con
tinued to work while the crowd passed
by, without tcstifying the smallest share
Of curiosity. / own his want of atten-
ton excited mine; and, as stood in
need Of his assistance, / thought it best
TO employ Philosophic Cobler on this
occasion: perceiving my busincss,there-
fore. he desired m. to enter and sit
down, took my shoe in his lap, and be-
gan to mend It with his usual indifier-
encc and taciturnity.

RIcHELmu.-The following brief extracts arc
from Bulwer's last popular drama, Richelieu'
FRIENDSHIP.
Confde in mel our young days rolled together
In the same river, CHASING the same stars
That smil d in the heaven of hope: alike we made
Brig4lt-wngod steeds Of our Uniformed chimeras
Squirting the fancies upward to the air,
Wherein we shaped fair castles from the cloud.
POWER OF THE PEN.
Beneath the rule of men entirely great
The pen is inightier than the sword. Behold
The arch enchanter's wand-itselfa nothing
But taking sorccry from the master hand
To paralyze the C@sare--and to strike
The loud earth breathess
