Second Rate VS., First Rate.

The following is bit of Thackeray's hui
NOR and is very good if not first rate.
/ have always had taste for the second
rate in life. Second-ra,e poetry, for instance,
is an uncommon deal pleasanter to my fancy
than your great laundering frst-rate epic
poems. Your Milton and Dantes are magni-
ficent-but bore; whereas an ode of Horace,
or song of Tom Moore, is always fresh,
sparkling, and welcome.
Second-rate claret, again is VIGOROUSLY
better than frst-rate wine; you get the
former genuine, whereas the latter is a
loaded and artificial composition that clogs
the palate, and bothers the reason.
Second-rate beauty in women is likewise,
maintain, more agreeable than first rate
beauty is grand, severe, awful-a faultless,
frigid angel Of five feet nine-superb to be-
hold at church, or in the park or at draw
ing-room-but ah how inferiort to second.
rate nee retronssS, with which you fall in
love in minute
Second-rate novels, also assert to be
superior to the best works of fiction. They
give you no trouble to read, excite no pain
full emotions-you go through them with
gentle languid agreeable interest. Mr..
James romances are perfect in this way.
The ne plus ultra of Incidence may be enjoy
ed during their prusal.
