CLAY AND BENTON-A CONTRAST.

Greatness seems TO sit easily upon some men;
others know not how to wear it. Nature makes
some men great others great by aspirations.
To be famous is not always to be great. The
great move through alarming difficulties, as the
bold man in the heat of battle; the famous, at
such times, move as if engaged in the struggle to
obtain something beyond their reach. The great
man takes the widest views; the famous narrows
down his thoughts TO some petty scheme. Great
ness is calm, unmoved, and reason predominates;
notoriety is excited, harsh and passion rules
The great are patriots; the famous sectarians.
The great man makes no darling of his scheme,
the famous man lavishes upon his the most FRO
fuse patrmony. The people watch the two
When greatness comes, hushed into silence the
multitude wait, in eagernesss, 10 catch bis words
when notoriety appears, with suppressed muir
muir men, with cool Indifference, turn away
The one they applaud, the other they deride.-
The appearance of the one illumnes the cOunte-
nance with smile the sight Of the other invo
unfairly knts the brow. The one seeks not the
popular applause and is hailed with reclamation;
the other courts the public favor and is forced TO
chew 'ihe bitter cud Of disappointment. The great
man aspires not and nature carries him to the
highest stations; the voaIy OF notoriety is full of
