Judge Marshall.

II Segrelario in one of his letters 10 the N.
Y. Times on Great Convcrsationists, gives the
following sketch of the late Chief Justice Mar
shall
Ills body seemed MS i'll as his mind well
compacted; he not. only was without propor-
ton but ofmembcrs singulatly i'll knit thatdan-
gled from each other and looked hall disloca-
ted. Habitnally he dressed very careessly;
in the garb, but should not dare to say in the
mode Of the last century. Shapeless as he was
he would probably have defied oil fitting by
whatever skill ofthe shears; judge then, how
the vestments Of an age when apparently Goats
and>breeches were cut for nobody IN particn-
lar, aud waiscoats were almost dressing-gowns
sat upon him To complete these periectIons
olattire II is necessary though am ashamed
loodd that the admirable Judge whom above
all men that | am to draw, | would have you
love and vcncratc-was Que Of those people to
whom, in some myslcrious waythe gift OF look
ing clean is denied. Probably some ancestor
Of his had injured Naiad, and tho vengcnce
of the lymphatic powers still rests upon his
race, for | never knew one of them that bore
not upon his linen signs ofthat old quarrel
Hence, perhaps the great Jurlst's unwashed
appearances Certainly, il might well be
said Of him, as by Dryden Of another;
In lsracl's Courts neer sat m abethdin
OF more discerning cycs bond more eiean:
but pure as he kept the judicial crminc it was
the only thing he ever wore unsoiied.
yet, with oil that lhave said imagine not,
pray you, that you could have laughed over
the pccuaritics of J Marshall, when you once
knew who he was. All that would have been
ludicroua in another became in him more than
respectable it absolutely attracted your rev.
ercnce. For there are men the honors and
delight of whose character are such that we
dwell with pleasure and even n sort olaflection
on whatever gives them an identity Of their
own. We love tho ugness Of Socrates, ex-
ccssive us ii was, the foibles Of dear Oliver Go
ldsmith; the egotsm of wise old Montaigne."

A FAITHFUL SERvANr.-The New Orleans

down the Mississippi, not long since, became
acquainted on the boat with lady, who with
her six children, was on her way to California.
She had only one servant, coored man, VINO
had gone to California alone worked hard an1

Iect dat saved him from uttre imbecility - He
he or entirely forgot bis friends or ceased To in
anire Of them. He would also either sing
himself or ask his wife to sing for him some Of
the fayorite airs Of his formor dnys. Mrs.
Moore says that the day before dat on which
he died, he warbled music, thus showing that
,hc love he had so JondIy cherished in health
and through life did not desert Inn either in
sickness or in the hour of death.
Amid the decay and ruin OF his splendid FAC
nlfes his heart was true to its friendships and
To it, love Of music. His affections survived
his intellectual ability, and long after he ceased
To think, ho continued 10 feel. Music greatly
delighted him when the power to think was
almost cxtingnished. The wild and sweet and
plaintivc strains to which he had listened IN
other days, those strains wrung from the bIee-
ding heart Of his country, continued to echo
through the deserted and desolate halls Of his
mind and 10 impart TO his soul portion at
east Of that exquisite pleasure with which in
youth he had listened TO them. 1t must have
been sad and yet a beautiful spectacles to see
the glorious old bard, while setting in the dark
ness of mental eclipse, suddenly open his dim
eye snd sing the airs with which in many a
festive scene he had awakened the tenderest
sentiments Of the heart and hidden tears to
flow from the eyes Of beauty. Had Moore
himself seen in his better days any such spec
tacle, It would have appealed with irresistible
force to his sensibihty, aud he would have
