Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1855-12-06

A child when asked why a certain tree grew
crooked, replied " Somebody trod upon it |
suppose, when it was a little fellow"
How painfully suggestive is that answer !!
How many, with aching hearts, can remember
the days of their childhood, when they were
the victims of indiscreet repression, rather than
the happy subjects of some kind direction and
culture. The effects of such misguided disci-
pline have been apparent in their history and
character, and by no process of human devising
can the wrong now be rectifed. The grand er-
ror in their education consisted in system of
rigid restraints, without corresponding efforts
to develop and cultivate, and train in right
direction.

THE NEW MEMOIR OF WEBSTER,

While staying at the house of the late Daniel
w ebster, do not know that can afford mat
ter of more interest to your readers than by
communicating some details in regard to the
contents of Mr.. Fletcher Webster's s forthcoming
collection of his fathers correspondence, which
will be published the coming winter by Messrs.
Little Brown Co., Of Boston. This collec-
ton, which will be comprised in two royal oc-
tavo volumes of six hundred pages each, uni
form with Everott's edition of Webster's Works,
will include only such letters as bear upon the
social and domestic life of tie great Statesman,
and, venture to say, will place him in Q far
more interesting light than the great body of
even his admirers have been accustomed to re-
gard him. Indeed, it will, from the intrinsic
interest of its contents be eagerly sought for
by those miscellaneous readers to whom the po-
litical career of Mr.. Webster is matter of
comparative indifference.
Among the correspondents whose letters will
be found in these volumes are the two Adamses,
Madison, Monroe, Chiet.Justice Marshall, Chan
/
cellor Kent, Benton, Clay, Everett, Story, Jere.
miah Mason, Lord Spencer and Lord Ashburton:
In addition to Mr. Webster's letters to these
and other distinguished men, there are those
which he wrote to his relationships brother,
children, employees, &c.-some OF them (those
to Ezekiel webster) extending as far back as
1897, when he was but fifteen years of age. In
regard to Clay letters, Of which there quite
number, could not help remarking the absence
> of that social freedom which might have beer
! expected in man like him. From the begin
e ming to the end of his life, they show him to b'
totally wrapt up in the small political intrigue
of the day; cogitating how to carry that Of
; this State-how to circumvent or elect this Oh
that candidate. They ore quite voluminous
e but, as specimens of friendly epistles, which
8 they are designed apparently to be, almost of n
is value The Ashburton correspondence, mostl

slxty-three pages of letter paper. The time
over which the narrative extends, is from his
birth in 1882 to his final settlement is lawyer
in Boston in 1876 The first four years of his
Congressional life are thus taken in, while he
represented New Hampshire in the House of
Representatives. The whole history of his hum
BILE beginning, his struggles to obtain an edu-
cation, his experience as a colegian and law
student, the books he read, his first efforts at
newspaper writing. are here related Sith some
thing of that simplicity and absence of reserve,
as well as with an occasional weightiness of re-
mark, which lend charm to the autobiogra-
phies of Gibbon and Franklin.s He also at
times alludes to his eminent contemporaries in
the legal profession, Of whom he places his
friend, the distinguished jeremiah Mason, at
the head and observed two elaborate paral-
lels copied by him from his journal, written
while law student in Boston, between Samuel
Dexter and Theophilus Parsons, then the two
rival leaders of the Boston bar, eyincing no lit
tie discriminating and power Of intellectual an
alysis His first meeting with Governor Gore,
into whose. Office be first entered to pursue the
law, is told quite amusingly. He was then
rather raw young man from the country, and
felt obliged to make long and studied apology
for want of letters of introduction, which he
offered to 90 and procure. Governor Gore, how
ever, who appears to have been satisfied by in
spection of the character of his visitor, cut him
short, by telling him to come back, hang up his
hat, and sit down to his books at once, adding
that he might procure the letters at d" his leis-
ure."
1t is rather to be regretted that the autobio-
graphy left by Mr.. Websters eminent friend,
jeremiah Mason, could not be included in the
present volumes, as they were so long associated
as the ornaments of the New England bar
this document is stated to be extremely enter
esting, and to contain much matter which would
illustrate the life and times of himself and Mr..
Webster Doubtless, however, the family of
Mr. Mason will one day publish it, but its cir
culation would be greatly augmented by its con-
nection with the volumes about to be published
kby Mr.. Fletcher Webster.-Letter from " 7, 4"
in the Evening Post.

The following adventure occurred in the
brilliant days Of Napoleons empire
1t is well known that he was fond of going
about Paris early in the morning, accompanied
only by the Duke de Frioul, and was always
greatly pleased when he escaped being recog-
nized. About six o'clock one morning in the
month of March or April he left the Elysee
early, in company with Duroc. They bent their
course toward the Boulevards, and on arriving
there, the Emperor observed that they had got
out very early, as all the shops were yet closed
{ must not play the Haroun-aI-Raschid SO
early said he; besides, l believe it was always
at night that he wandered forth with his faith
ful Giaffar.' When they arrived at the Pas
sage du Panorama, some of the shops were
already opened. One of them particularly at
tracted the Emperor's attention. 1t was the
celebrated magazine of Florence alabaster, which
was kept then, as it is now, by M, L and
his sister, natives Of Switzerland. There was at
that moment nobody in the shop but servant
girl, who was sweeping it, and whose movements
were much constrained by the fear of breaking
any of the brittle but valuables articles around
her. The Emperor was amused at the cautious
way in which she performed her task, and after
he had stood looking at her for some time, he
said, All ca who keeps this shop! Is there
neither master nor mistress heret'
DO you want to buy any thingr said the
girl, supending her labor. Then leaning on her
broom, she rested her chin on her two hands,
and stared the Emperor full in the face, appa-
rently half inclined to laugh at his eccentric
appearance. Certainly it would be difficult to
imagine more comical figure than Napoleon
presented in his Haroun al-Raschid costume, Of
he used to call it. He wore the famous gray
frock coat but it was not the coat ITSELF it wa.
the make Of it which rendered it so singular
The Emperor would never allow his clothes te
be in the least degree tight and consequentl,
his tailors made his coats as if they had meas
ured them upon scntry-box. When he mar
ried Maria Louisa, the King of Naples prevale,
on him to have his clothes made by his tailor
The Emperor wore them most coruageously for
short time; but he could endure the torture n
, longer, and he begged for mercy. He submitte
the question to the decision Of the Empres,
who, as long as she could ride on horseback, an
! take four or five meals day, was always goot
0 humored and willing to agree to any thing. ST.
; therefore granted Napoleon full power to dres
; according to his own fancy saying that ST
n liked the Emperor as ,oeH one ,cay as aaothe
$ Perhaps she would have spoken more correctl
d had she said, she did not like him any better on
n ,oay than another.
With the loose frock coat above described, Il
n Emperor wore q round hat sloutched over h
e forehead, to prevent bis being recogn lied. Il
to questionable appearance, joined to his abru
20 and uncerremonious manner, led the servant gi
