NEAL Dow IN DUBLN.-Neal Dow, the author of
the Maine Law, has been entertained at public
banquet in the RotundO, Dublin, by Mr.. James
Haughton and others. This Haughton is notori-
Gus friend of " civilization and AbOlitionism. He
is a corn merchant by profession, but philanthropy
is his trade. There is scarcely subject on which
he has not written letters to the newspaper. He
is exhaustless in his public efforts to do good to hu-
nanity-for the slaves of the Southern States, for
instance but when the famine was in L c and,
this good soul Haughton stored his corn, kept up
the price, daily speechfed on the necessities of the
times, and by night had to throw his corn, which
had grown musty into the Lifey. Such is the
chief welcomer of Neal Dow to Dublin.

Boys OUr AT NIGHT-We find the following

Night running is ruinOus TO the morals OF boys III
all instances They acquire under the cover Of night
an unhealthy state of mind, bad, vulgar and protane
language, lawless and riotous bearing. Indeed,
it is in the street after nightfal that boys pruci-
pally acquire the education of the bad and capacl-

BSr MIR. Marcy commonly composed his impor-
tant dispatches in his office, but in his library at
home. When thus engaged, he would at once, aft r
breakfast begin his work and write till nearly noon,
when he would go to the Department, receive calls
and attend to the regular routine duties Of his posi-
ton. During the hours of composition, he SO
completely engrossed with his subject that persons
might enter Iand go out, talk in the same room,
without in the least obtaining his notice. He wore
spectacles-usually sat in his dressing gown, with
an old red handkerchief the table before him,
and one could judge of the relative activity of his
mind by the frequency of his application to the
snuff-box. He wrote deliberately with few erasures
or changes, and his thoughts generally in the first
draft assumed the from of expression in which he
was willing to publish them. He almost always used
pencil and left the second draft to be penned by a
clerk. This, however he rarely altered His hand
writing was legible and handsome, without being
clerky; his library numbered perhaps five thousand
volumes He had but little taste for the fine arts,
yet Palmer, the sculptor, William Page the painter,
and other American artists of note, owe the begin
inng of their success to his liberal encouragement.

Mr.. MARcY's LAST LETTER.-The last letter of
Mr.. Marcy, addressed to John NJ. Bolts, of Rich
mond was to introduce the latter, his friend to
Hon. Thos. H. Seymour, United States Minister at
St. Petersburg Russia Mr. Bolts expects to spend
several of the ensuing months in a tour through En-
rope and will visit most of the celebrated resorts
before he will return.
This is the letter that appealed to, soon after
Mr. Marcy's death, in support of the foolish story
that he was about to connect his destinies with ths
Republican party. 1t contains not the slightest
evidence to that effect, and make bold to say that
there is no such evidence anywhere. Mr.. Marcy was
too patriotic to countenance sectional party and
too shrewed to connect himself with party which he
must have known was on the eve Of dissolution

Behold III See its purity How it gilt

with poisonous gases, and surrounded by

cold water; but in the green glade and
grassy dell, where the red deer wanders,
and the child loves to play; there God
brews it; and down, down in the deepest
valleys, where the fountains murnur and
the rills sing; and high upon the tall
mountain tops, where the naked granite
glitters like gold in the sun, where the
storm clouds brood and the thunder storms

where the hurricanes howl music and the
big waves roar tho chorus, sweeping the

Of throwing the vote Of Indiana for Mr.,
Buchanan, lie has just received the reward
