 4 lew more days and he must sleep in deaIhi few more days, and unto God who gaNe, The brave old Hero must resign his preauh, And sink serenely to a tranquil grave Sink like the sun, more glorious at last ,s Than when his rays in broad efiulgence gio"eu' And over sea- and plain, and mountain cast Meridian splendor from its high abode' For valor, wisdom, justice, truth renowned By tyrants hated and by freemen blessed' With all his country's loftiest honors croWned' He goes to welcome his eternal rest; Rest that his soul has sighed for many years, With the dear partner of his manhood's prlmei Rest in realm undmmed by doubts and fears, Beyond the power of change or sway of time. Statesman and warrior, patriot and sagei
 nation weeps thy late and slow decay; First of the living great on history's page,
 Who will remain when thou hast passed away! Who of that noble band. the tried and stern, Men ofthe old heroic stamp and creed, On whom the present race may look and learn How to be wise in thought, and bold in deed! A few more days, and over all the land From west to east shall sound the sad command, Ye people mourn your hero in the tomb ' Him. sumberng peaceful, strife can reach no more ]; By gory's halo circled in his name; And long oh freedom, thy eagles soar,
 All thy new Tumphs shall record his fame. New York, May l9 lomon

SKETCH OF SIR ROBERT PEEL, BYA ToRY.-
 stranger to the House of Commons who, having
 heard of Sir Robert Feels influence there, had con
 ceved some ideal portrait of great orator, would assnredy be disappointed He would observe in his
 speeches want of strong reasoning fixed princi- ples, lax, loose, many sided mode of viewing the most vital questions, and great command of that sort of logic which takes in common minds by clever fallicies.-He would look in vain for vivid imagina tion or profound thought He would find no outline of a complete scheme of policy, any one ruling idea with which his views and political sympa. thies could associate. The style he would pronounce rnartifcia; that there is attempt at consiruc- ton, but that the speech is crowded with exiran- eous matter and the speakerI has many ends to gain, that perfect plan would be impossible, He would complain of verbosiIy, of repetition of ideas, nay, whole arguments, in different words, and then imperfectly expressed, ofa pervading pretenson to something very profound which constantly falls short of accomplishment. Ofthe action used by the speak eI he would he tempted 10 say that it was neither modest. as becomes an unassuming reasoner, mol commanding, as ought to be the action of great orator. A
 He would see at one time pompous solemnity leading nothing, another, the most trivial post ures of everyday after dinner conversation ushering in the most important topics. Ills elbow resting on the table before him, while his pointed finger shaked ominously at hs opponents, and one leg is crossed the other, the posture of man laying down an argument to familiar friend; or, thumbs buried in

 is thrown back ostentatiousIy as foreigners do 10 show their fine velvet Things; or, Is more mony the case his hands hidden under his coattails while he stand much he might with his back to ire these moi the positions gestures ofa great orator. But. on he other hand, whatever the defects of Sir Robert Peel when his speeches his actions are looked at critically, you cannot fail to admire his ease and self possession, the thorough knowledge he has, even to the minutes detaiIs of every subject he undertakes, the adroitness with which he enters into all the different feelings. prejudice, and interests winch surround him. and the wit he evinces in weild. ing them 60 as to produce all the appearance of 'husiasm, and in moulding them to his purpose, of subduing their varieties to harmonious of action. In the art of managing the House of Com mona he is indeed unrvalIed.-fF Fraser's Mag.

AEEcDoTE OF LOUIS PHILIP.-'rhe entertain- ing correspondent ofthe Courier des Etate Uns gives the following narrative as one of the amusing arec- dotes with which, he says, the French king Is wont to entertain his family and friends after the fatigues | and the care of state over for the day: "Durng the emigration. the kng, who then had the title of Duke of Charres, was travelling in A. merica with his brother, the Duke of Montpensier | The United States then were not what they villages and dwellings were only to be found at long | intervals; taverns almost unknown. After fatigung days journey the travellers came 10 the doo off little sAantee in the hackwoods, the proprietor l of winch was poor devil who could scarcely make the two ends meet. Hospitality had large place il his heart, but his cupboard empty, and the hes disposition in the world will not make up for bat supper. As he could not give our travellers bed no board he bestowed his good advice upon them. 4 short distance from his dwelling, he said, there wal Frenchman, living at his ease, who would conside l t great pleasure to make himself useful to his fel | low cOuntyman.
 1 This Frenchmam, who like them had fled from hi native land, did indeed receive them with heart, welcome; but he attached very natural condition tI his hospitality. He wanted to know their names and his guest declined satisfying his curiosity.

 Alter supper, which was seasoned with back woods appetite, the party at table grew talkalive Far from home, one love to dwell upon it, and no thing ensures a close acquaintance more readily tha the mutual recollection of home and country, at tn distance of two thousand leagues. "Kind host, , said the greater ialker of the two strangers, "yo have given us an excellent repast l will not be un grateful. First of all, will tell you who you are And then the king, at that time Duke of Chartres !, began to chant the recital of Thremen.
