Shakespeare as a Man.

1t is a nobler thing that such a man
as Shakespeare was created than to be
familiar with the shelves of whole IL
braries of dusty tones. The advent of
soul so richly gifted, of nature so
intensely ideal and so richly passion
ate, is an era in the history of man.
No poet ever reached a height so lofty,
described so granly, speculated so dar-
ingly; or fe't so deeply; and none ever
seemed so little conscious Of an effect.
His grandest thoughts flow so natural
ly, that it is easy to see that they are
familiar and accustom to his mind
and bis gaiety and mirth are equally
characteristics of himself. Hamlet and
Meicutio Macbeth and Romeo, Pros
pero and Benedict, are all shakespeare
in his different moods; and the wit,
the idealist, soldier and sage, each and
all bear the impress of having originat
ed from the same mind There Is pro-
badly less known of Shakespeare person.
ally than of any man of mark in Eng
lish history. He lived in an age of
heroes, and he was a foremost man
among them. His cotemporaries bow
ed before bis master spirit, and the
most colossal minds of all Europe have
acknowledged his sovereignty. And
yet we have better knowledge of men
who died a thousand ycrs ago, before
printing perpetu4ted tradition, when
chronclers were few, than of this won
drous man. There is not, we have
reason to believe, a single letter of his
writing preserved, and scarcely a CO.
temporary anecdote. There are por-
traits, not one of which can be proved
to be authentic; a bust which seems
genuine but cannot be warranted. This
man, the real spiritual king OF England.
is in his individuality as much a myth
as Homer But this we do know,
man there lived whose intellectual and
moral nature was micfocosm which
embraced the ideal Of humanity, and
that he left behind hundred repre-
sentatives of his own mind, noae like
each other, but all like himself, of
whom every passing speculation or
reasoning is best illustrated, and in
whom every emotion finds It's noblest
and most genuine utterance.

GREECE OF THE PRESENT Day
The beautiful land of Greece, with all
its glorious "reminiscences, is now but
the personlfication of fallen greatness.
The treasures of science, literature and
art, famed for its agricultural and COM
mercial wealth, is now no more and
in its stead there is left poor, impoy-
erished and enfeebled country. Her
government is the most Inefficient and
corrupt with which Ii nation was ever
cursed; and the people, robbed by the
soldiery and harrassed by their rulers,
cultivate the lands only to satisfy the
systematic exactions of their tyrants.
In ONE parts of the kingdom. tired of
laboring in the field, for benefits which
others will enjoy, many of the peasan-

A RUM SELLER.

5ng~The Louisville Journal of late date,
in speaking of the recent Congressional de-
bate, in which Mr.. A. r. Marshall, of Ken
lucky, INDUCED in a sneer at editors, speaks
as follows:
We like DR. Marshall very WE'LL but his
being a Congressman gives him no right to
sneer at editors as a class To be sure. edi-
tors can afford to be snered at by members
of Congress, but members Of Congress, con-
sideriug how they are generally made, can
i'll afford to sneer at them. When William
Penn. the Governor of Pennsylvania, was
travelling in a portion of the State where he
was not known, fellow, in whose presence
the Quaker Governor presumed to wear his
hat, exclaimed with an air of offended dig
nifty, . Sir, would have you know that

he reached his place, a very low hiss
ing soound indicated that he Was rea-
dy, Brady in turn reiterated the sound
as a signal to Gray and Bevington to
begin. This they did in the most de-
liberate manner No nervousness was
permissible then. They slowly felt for
the heart of each savage they were to
stab, and then plunged the knife. The
tomahawk was not to be used unless
the knife proved inefficient. Not a
sound broke the stiffness of the night
as they cautiously felt and stabbed,
unless it might be that one who was
feeling would hear the stroke of the
others knife and the groan of the vic>
tim whom the other had slain. Thus
the work proceeded, six of the savages
were slain. One OF them had not been
killed outright by the stab of GRAY.
He sprang to his feet, but as he arose
to shout his war cry. the tomahawk fin
ished what the knife had begun. He
staggered and fell heavily forward, over
one who had not yet been reached
He in turn started up, but Brady was
too quick, his knife reached his heart,
and the tomahawk his brain almost at
the same instant.
All were slain by the three spies, ex.
cept one. He started to fee, bnt a
rife shot by Biggs rang merrily out up
on the night air and closed his career.
The women and children, alarmed by
the contest, fed wildly to the woods,
but when all had grown still and they
were called they returned, recognizing
amid their fright the tones Of their own
people. TIE whole party took up their
march for Mcintosh at once. About
sunrise next morning the sentries OF
the fort were surprised to see the cav
alcade Of horses, mer, women aud chill
dren, approaching the f.rt. When
they recognized Brady, they at once
admitted him and the whole party.
In the relation of the circumstances
afterward Bevington claimed to have
killed three and Gray three. Thus
Brady, who claimed nothing, must have
slain at least six, whilst the other two
slew as many. The thirteenth Biggs
shot.
From that hour TO this, the spring is
called the Bloody Spring!' and the
small run is called 'Brady's Run
Few, even of the most curious Of
the people living in the neighbofhood,
know aught of the circumstances which
conferred these names; names which
will be preserved by tradition for ever.
Thus ended one of the very many
hand-to-hand flights which the great
spy had with the savages. His histo-
ry is fuller Of daring incident, sangui-
nary, close, hard contests, perilous ex-
plorations and adventurous escapes,
than that of either of the Hetzels, OF
Boone or Kenton. He saw more SER
vice than any of them, and his name
was known as bye-word of terror
among the Indian tribes, from the Sus-
quehanna to Lake Michigan.

THE New York MURDER The partic-
ulars of the murder of DR.. Burdell, in the
city Of New York, and the evidence adduced
at the Coroner's inquest, occupy about ten
columns Of closely printed matter in the n.
Y Herald. The evidence appears to imph
cate the Doctors housekeeper Mrs. Cunning
ham. and her paramour Mr.. Eckel, young
man who was boarding in the house, but suf-
fcient had not transpirej to make out a le-
gal case against them. Mrs. Cunningham
produced certificate of a secret marriage
to DR.. Burdell, but it is supposed that some
other man personated the Doctor, so that
Mrs c. could claim third Of his property
after his death. The case appears to have
created an immense excitement.
