CHARACTER OF QUEEN ELIZABETI

CHARACTER OF QUEEN ELIZABETH.
The following eloquent paragraph is extract
ed from Lord Brougham's Lives of Men of
Letters:
1t is undeniable that Elizabeth did not cause
Mary to be executed until she had repeatedly
endeavored 10 make Sir Amyas Paulett and
Sir Drue Drury, who had the custody of her
person, take her oil by assassination When
those two gallant cavaliers rejected the inia
NOUS proposition.with Indignation and with
scom, she attacked them as "dainty" and
precise fellows" ''men promising much and
performing nothing" nay, she was with diff
iiculty dissuaded from dispIacing them. and
employing one Wingield in their stead, ''who
had both courage and inclination to strike the
blow" Then finding she could not commit
murder, she signed the warrant for Mary's OK
ecution; and Immediately perpetrateda crime
only less foul than murder, treacherously de-
nying her handwriting, and DESTROYING by
heavy line and long imprisonment the Secre-
tary OF State whom she had herself EMPLOYED
TO use the fatal warrant. History, fertile i'm
lis records of royal crimes, offers for our exc
Grafton lew such characters as thatof this great
successful and popular princess. An assassin
III her heart, nay, in her councils and her or
ders; an oppressor of the most unIelentinp
cruelty IN her whole conduct; hypocritical
dlssemblcr, 10 whom falsehood was habitual.
honest irankness strange-such is the LIGHT i'm
winch she ought to be ever held up, as long as
humanity and truth shall bear any value i'm the
eyes of men,

A CURIOTS RELlCT.-We have at our

which once belonged to DIR. FRANKLlY. and
OF which he made present To his friend
THOMAS HARVEY and the l-authenticatcd
history of which is traced to its present owner
MIR. JAMES WHEELwRIGHT 1t came as an
heirloom from Thomas HARVEY. To his lincaI
descendant, the late Mr.. john HEATING. The
year 1893 is stamped in strong legible figures
upon the inside of the leather The word
BOSTON Is beautifully embossed OH each OF
the outside covers, and the leather appears tc
be OF that endurable texture which would last
for another century. In one of the folds we
found tdc similt of DIR. FRANKLIN's letter tC
Mr. sTKAHAN, the Kings Printer, of which
the following is a copy:
PHILADELPHIA. July 9Th. l775.
