President PIERcE's PRIVATE SECRETARY. Gen.
Pierce has been remarkably fortunate his selection
of private secretary. Mr.. Sidney Webster, though
still young man, has the qualifications which lit
him peculiarly for the responsible post A graduate
of Yale College, he distinguished himself there for
his scholarly progress and general culture. He SUBJ
sequently Joined the Dane Law School at Cambridge,
where his at,anments drew from Professor Parsons
a high compliment MIR. Webster was admitted to
practice in the of Massachusetts in 1851. He
subsequently established himself at Concord in asso-
citation with Colonel George, advocate in high
pute and extensive practice. In his new position at
" ash Ington, Mr.. W ebster's thorough legal training
cannot fail to prove great advantage in the discharge
OF his various duties. He is gentleman in the
comprehensive sense Of that word; showing the i'm
press Of one in his personal presence and bearing,
and, what is better, in his desire cooperate with
President Pierce in his snglehearted devotion to the
public service. We do believe that the Infectious
atmosphere of W Washing ton will dim the most ne
gold - in the character of either.

The GREEK OF HOMER A LIVING LANGUAGE. An
effort, says the Westminster Reritlo, has been made
by Mr.. Blackie Professor of Greek in the University
OF Edngburgh, to reform the pronunciation of Greek
in that University. He is teaching his students to
pronounce Greek they do in Greece, insisting tina
it is not dead, but living language--as any one
may see by looking at Greek newspaper. Profess
sor Blacke gives an extract from newspaper print
ed last year at Athens, giving account of Kos
suhs visit TO America, from which it is evident that
the language Of Homer lives in state of purity, to
which, considering the extraordinary duration of its
literary existenceAtwo thousacd i've hundred years
at east-thrre is no parallel perhaps the face of
the globe. Alter noticing few trhing modiica-
lions, which Distinguish modern from ancient Greek,
he states, fact that in three columns of Greek
newspaper of the year 1852, there does certainly
very slightly has it been corrupted from foreign
sources. Nelu York. Post.

The Ending and Beginning Year.


BY ALFRED rENNYsoN.
Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying clouds, the frosty light;
The year ia dying in the night;
ring out, wild bells, and let him die.
Ring out the old. ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow;
The Year is going, let him go;
King out the false, ring in the true.
Ring out the grief that saps the mind,
For those that here We see no more;
Ring out the feuds of rich and poor,
Ring IN redress to all mankind
Ring out slowly dying cause,
And ancient forms of party strife;
King in the nobler modes of life,
with sweeter manners, purer laws.
King out the want, the care, the sin,
Inc falthless GOODNESS of the times;
Ring out, ring on. my moarnful rhymes
But ring the fuller minstrel in.
Ring out false pride in place and blood,
he CIVIC SANDER and the spite;
King IN The love Of truth and right,
King In the common love of good
King out old shapes of foul disease,
King out the narrow lust of gold;
King out the thousand wars of old,
Ring in the thousand years of peace
Ring in the valiant man and free,
The larger heart, the kindler hand;
Ring out the darkness of the land,
Ring in the Christ that is TO be.

Democratic majority. ..15, 66s
From the Lolceh (Afassachusetis) Journal.
Democratic Harmony in New Hampshi,

From the Loicetl (Aiassaehusetis) Journal.
Democratic Harmony in New Hampshire.
1t is stated in several papers-on what authority
we know not-that Edmund Burke, formerly
commissioner OF Patents, and subsequently editor
OF the Union, is about to- commence the Dnh,;co
ton OF a new Democratic paper at Concord. New
Hampshire, and IN opposition to the New H,rnn
shire Patriot. There has never existed anv great
cordially between General Pierce and the e~
Commissioner, and it has probably been not a little
diminished by recent occurrences. Burke wanted
TO be senator, and Pierce said s.No." Again the
President elect, according to the semi-oficial
proclamation of the New Hampshire Patriot is for
keeping on good terms with the New York Barn
burners, and especially with the Van Burens
Burke, on the other hand, hates the whole tribe
and thinks penitence of ten years at least should
be demanded OF them before they can be purged
OF abolluonism, and entitled to be taken back in
full communion with the unadulterated Democ-
racy. Still, Mr.. Burke's hand against Nthe new
administration must be regarded as being yery
much like the enraged bull attempting to butt a
locomotive off the track. The late isaac Hill once
started paper in opposition to the old Patriot and
abused General Pierce without stint, but he got the
worst OF 1t, and compelled to retire. Mr.
Burke-lf really about to wage war against the
old organ OF the New Hampshire Democracy,
whiie II enjoys the confidence of the new Presi
dent-might profit by Mr.. Hills example We
can hardly credit the story. 1t is clear enough,
however, that there is little bitterness of feel
ing at TINS time among the Democratic leaders in
the Granite State, which may lead to unexnected
results. The great question seems to he whetbpr
the whole State, or only favored portion of n
shall be annexed to Washin gton after the 4tb Of
March. MIR. Wells, defeated az United states
Senator, berates General Pierce as the main cause
of his defeat; and member of the State Demo
cratic Committee few days since gave Mr.. Sena
tor Atherton 80 severe q handling that it became
necessary to turn the quarrel over to Committee
for settlement or compromise. Thus the fact that
New Hampshire is about to furnish President of
the United States-a circumstance, one would SUP.
pose, calculated to harmonic the Democracy of
the State, is having opposite efect-setting the
leaders together by the ears.
