Beautiful is old age, beautiful as the snow-drop-
ping mellow autumn OF a rich. glorious summer.
In the old man nature has fulfilled her work she
loads HIM with her blessings; she fills him wi h
the fruits of well spent life, and surrounded by
his children, she rocks him softly to grave, to
which he is followed with blessings. God forbid
we should call il beautiful 1t is beautiful but moi
the most beautiful. There is another life, hard,
rough and thorny. trodden with bleeding feet and
aching brow the life of which the cross is the SYM
Dol battle which no peace follows this side OF
the grave; which the grave gapes to finish when
the victory is won and--strange thatit should BE-
so-his is the highest life of man. Look back
along the great names of history there is none
whose life was other than this Westminster Re
view.

Worth MaAes the Wan.

When one man is worth Il thousand dollars, and
another ten thousand, We usually say the latter is
worth ten times as much the former Now il
this means nothing more than simply that one has
ten times as much properly as the other, our mo-
ments would be truly Ill-spcnt in carlng at the ex-
preston. But when people estimate the worth OF
man by the weight OF his purse, the amount OF
his stock or tie number OF his houses, without tx
aiming either the furniture OF his head or the
qualities OF his heart, common sense smiles at the
deluslon and designs not 10 correct the error. Is
the man mere cipher all ,his time? Shall he not
be rated as high as the purse or chest which con-
talns the common standard Of his worth? MAY
none OF the requirements OF art, nor the endow-
ments Of nature, have the honor of being inven-
toried with the sleek of his farm, his merchandise,
or his house hold furniture? Strange to say, such
i. scarcely ever the case

The CurreW Tolls. Sc.

Nothing could more fully, or beautifully, illus
trate the finer traits of Mr., Websters character,
saws the Buffalo Courier than the simple fact that
when the hour of his own dissolution was at hand
his mind should recur to one of the most beautiful
creations of poetry that could, without any impro-
priety, be applied to himself. How singuiarly ap-
propriate are the two last stanzas to the great
statesman's dying moments.
The curfew tolls the knelI of parting day,
The lowing herd winds slowly Ger the lea,
The ploughman homeward plods his weary way
And leaves the world to darkness and TO me-
Now fades the glimmering landscape on the sight,
And all the air a solemn stiffness holds,
Save where the beetle wheels his droning flight
And drowsy tinklings lull the distant fields
Beneath those rugged elms, that yew trees shade
Where heaves the turf in many moulding
heap,
Each in his narrow cell forever laid,
The rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep.
The boast of heraldry, the pomp of power,
And all that beauty, all that wealth e'er gave
Await alike the inevitable hour,
The paths of glory lead but to the grave.

Louis Bonaparte," says Victor Hugo, sis a
man of middle height, cold, pale, slow in his
movements, having the air OF person not quite
awake. He has published, as we mentioned be-
FORE toIerable treatise artillery, and is thought
to be acquainted with the manoeuvreing OF cannon.
He is good horseman He speaks drawlingly,
with slight German accent. His histronic ablll-
ties were displayed at the Eglngton tournament
He has thick musLache, covering his smile, like
that OF the Duke dArtois, and a dull eye, like
that of Charles TX. Judging of him. apart from
what he calls his necessary acts, or his grand
acts he is vulgar, commonplace parsonage
puerile, theatrical and vain OF course this pic
ture must be taken with gram Of salt. Hugo i
a romancer by profession, and has just now a yer.
