lie was willing that his learned opponent
should have all the advantage he promised
himself for the display of his talents in that
way. When he cam to this country he was
a stranger, and was happy to say that from
the bar generally and the court universally,
he had experienced nothing but politeness,
and even kindness. lie believed the court
would do him the Justice TO say, that he had
said or done nothing in this cause 10 merit
a different treatment. lie had always been
accustomed to admire and even reverence the
learning and elo%quence Of MIR. Pinkney, and
he was the last man from whom he should
have expected personal observations of the
sort the court had Just witnessed. He had
been in early life taught by the highest au-
thority, not TO return railing for railing. He
would only say that he had been informed
that the learned gentleman had filled the
highest office his country could bestow, at
the court of st. James. He was very sure
that he had not learned his breeding in that
school,"
"The court at the bar were delighted; for
MIR. Pinkney was apt to be occasionally a lit
tie too over-bearing. When we take into

as we gather from Wheaton's Life of that
gentleman, afterwards rendered the most am
pie and generous apology. The manner
said he, lin which Mr.. Emmett has replied,
reproaches me by its forbearance and urbani-

which reflection alone would have produced,
and which | am so glad to have so public an
occasion of avowing. | offer him a gratuit-
GUS and cheerful atonement; cheerful, be-
cause it puts me to rights with myself, and
because it is rendered not to ignorance and
presumption, but to the highest worth intel

as few may hope to equal; to an interesting
stranger whom adversely has tried, and aflic-
ton struck severely 10 the heart; to an ex-
lie whom any country might be proud to re-
%ceive, and every man of generous temper
would be ashamed to Offend Now a bitter
retort from Mr.. Emmett, in the first place
might have engendered enmity in the breasts
of these two great men, which would have
expired only with their lives.

Plmkney and Emmett.

The knickerbocker for the past month has
the following anecdote of the two eminent
persons named above. Where sarcasm, in
vective and severity Of denunciation are re-
garded as the characteristics of eloquence,
the lesson which the subjoined narrative con.
veys, may operate as useful corrective:
ave do not know when we have encoun-
tered a more forcible exemplifcation of the
truth, that a soft answer turneth away wrath
than is afforded in the ensuing anecdote =
On one occasion, in the Supreme Court of
the United States, the eloquent Irish exile,
MIR. Emmett, and the distinguished orator,
Mr.. Pinkney, were on opposite sides in an
important cause, and one which the latter
had much at heart. In the course of the ar
gument, he travelled out of the cause to make
observations personal and extremely often
sive, on Mr.. Emmett, with a view probably
of irritating and weakening his reply. Mr.
Emmett sat quiet and endured it all. l

NOVEL READING MONOMANIACS.

1t is a pity that the trashy literature of the
day should find readers within the walls of a
college; yet it is thus that some spend too
much of their valuable time. As an instance
of this, | am going to relate a great story. A
graduate Of Harvard told me that, during his
collegiate life, he read three thousand volumes
of fiction. "Ihree thousand! :" you exclaim ;
Z" impossible I! he must have said three hum
dred." Three thousand he assured Inc and
his veracity is unquestionable. Nor did the
evident regret with which he spoke of it, adj
nit of any motive to exaggerate. But let us
see if it were possible, and if it be, the well
known insatiate appetite, the mania, of novel
reading in some persons, makes it probable.
In four years including one leap year, there
are l46l days he had, then, to read but two
volumes and a fraction daily, Sundays inclu-
ded. Rising early and reading far into the
night, he was enabled to do this. He used,
he said, to run into Boston on his feet every
evening during twilight, TO the book shops
and circulating Libraries, to return books and
obtain others. | had thought this an unpar-
allied instance in the history of novel reading
AS among students | hope it is. But hap
pening TO speak of IL TO a friend, he mention
ed the following; Being with two gentle
men at a bookstore in New York, at which
was kept a circulating library, one of them
remarked that an acquaintance of his was ac-
customed 10 read two hundred volumes of
novels in a year. The first, turning 10 the
bookseller, asked what was the largest mum
Der of volumes drawn by one person from his
library, in a year. Referring to his books,
he found that a certain lady had taken -four
hundred and fifty sets, mostly Of two-vol-
umed, making about nine hundred volumes.
This would amount, in four years, TO 5000 4;
SO that the fair one beat the collegian by six

Yale.

The Nazarine.


The following description of Jesus was
found in an ancient Manuscript, sent by Pub
Illus Lentulus, President Of Judea, TO the SEN
ate of Rome:
"There lives at this time in Judea, a man
Of singular character, whose name is Jesus
Christ. The barbarians esteem him a proph-
et, but his followers adore him as the lmme-
date offspring of the immortal God. lie is
endowed with such unparalleled virtue, as to
call back the dead from their graves, and TO
heal every kind of disease, with a word, or
touch. His person is tall and elegantly sha-
ped; his aspect amiable and reverend his
hair flows in those beauteous shades, which
no united colors can match, falling in grace
full curls below his ears, agreeably COUGHING
on his shoulders, and parting on the crown
of his head his dress Of The sect OF the Ma
z%arite; his forehead is smooth and large; his
cheek without either spot, save that of lovely
red his nose and mouth are formed with ex-
q%uisite symetry his beard is thick, and suit
able to the hair Of his head, reaching a little
below his chin, and parting in the middle,
like a fork his eyes are bright, clear, and Sc.
rene. He rebukes with mildness, and in.
viies with the most tender and persuasive Ian
guage; his whole address, whether word oil
deed, being elegant, grave, and strictly cha
racteristic Of so exalted a being. No mar
has seen him laugh, but the whole world be-
holds him weep frequently F; and so persua,
sive are his tears, that the whole multitude
cannot withhold their tears from joining il
sympathy with him. He is very modest
temperate and wise; in short, whatever thi:
phenomenon may turn out in the end, he
seems, at present, TO be a man Of e~xcellen
beauty, and divine Projections, every way
surprising the children Of men,"

THRILLING

At a Temperance meeting in Philadelphia
some years ago., a learned clergyman spoke
in favor of wine as a drink, demonstrating il,
to his own satisfaction, to be scriptural, gen.
tlemanly, and healthful.
When the clergyman sat down, a plain, ell
derby man rose, and asked the liberty of say
ing a few words:
"a young friend Of mine," said he, /" who
had long been incorporate, was at length pre-
vailed on to the Joy of his friends to take the
pledge OF entire abstinence from all that could
intoxicate. He kept the pledge faithfully

From the DelaWare Blue Hens Chicken,
The Early life of Mrs. Gaines.

As the case of this extraordinary woman
has for a long time past excited the interest
OF the people of this country, WI think it will
not be undressing to give our readers a
slight sketch of her early life. Mira Clark,
(now Mrs. Gaines who is we'll known to
our citizens, having in early life resided here,
was born in New Orleans, her father, Dam
iel Clark, (well known in the political and
commercial history of Louisiana,) being a
partner Of Col. Davis, of this county. Her
father died, and when only a few months old
she was adoped by Col. Davis, and brought
up as his own child. A man by the name
of Ralph destroyed her fathers will, and
there is every reason to believe forged one.
giving to himself the whole of the immense
property of her father, consisting of nearly
the whole of the new part of New Orleans,
(at that time worth near fpe millions of dol
lars, and now worth much more.) She lived
in entire Ignorance of her parentape for A
long time. The first idea she had of her
parentage, was being tainted by a girl at
school with the fact that Col. Davis was not
her father. Afterwards she discovered il
from SOM papers which she found, while
she was looking for some documents which
she was to send to the Colonel at Harris
burg, they at that time living in Pennsylya-
MIA. Some m afterwards she visited the
Sulphur Springs, Virginia, and while there,
on account OF her carriage breaking, she be-
came acquainted with a young man named
WIN. Whitney, a son of Gen. Whitney Of
New York. Soon afterwards, he visited hei
in Philadel phia, but the Colonel not approx.
ing OF the match, he was forbidden the house

ny MISS FHTBE CAREY.

Does the earth contain one spirit
Bowed Respondent to the dust,
On the midnight of whose vision
Beams no star of hope and trustl
Let that soul but pause and ponder
On the works the Past has done,
And an earnest, bright and glorious,
For the Future shall be won.
For the soul must feel the stirring
OF its destiny sublime,
Who but rightly views the present,
With its earnest heart and mind,
Toiling in the earthly vineyard
Many bands have found Il place;
Some are nearing TO the summit
Some are at the mountains base.
Progress is the stirring wa,chword-
Cheers them upward to the height;
Canst thou pause and play the laggard,
With its giories full in sight!
And while fair and broad and glorious
In our vision we can see,
Still the future brightly stretching
into far infni,y:
Who shall tell what bond or barrier
To improvement heaven designed!
Who shall dare to fix the limits,
To the onward march of mind
Only He, who into being
Called the ~unfathomed human soul,
He for whom the hymn of Progress
Through eternity shall roll!

Reunion.

OF seven who launched together
On life's uncertain main,
With hearts for any weather,
We three are met again;
In the same old spot united,
Where we lived and loved of old,
Ere a touch Of grief had blighted,
Or a wave of sorrow rolled.
But where are they, the others,
Who started with US here;
Our gentle-hearted brothers,
Why do they not appear!
Two still are bravely reaping
In the harvest-ield of life,
And two are calmly sleeping
They've done with toll and strife.
There flows a golden river,
Whose waves most sweetly chime,
AS they gaily dance and culver
Down the silent vale of time
And from their labor parting,
They're floating on its swell;
Yet their words proclaim at starting,
They still are doing well.
A sigh for the departed,
Whose sun of life has set,
A hand to the true-hearted
Who finger with us yet;
Wen on in Gods name ever,
The rough path boldly tread
There's a beacon, darkened never,
And a high prize overhead.
