point at once, and states 1t with Clear
ness and precision. Has much of wit
and vivaciiy; uses arcasm and invective
frequently in his speeches, and always
with telling, whitening effect. His chief
mode of argument. however, is hyy analogy:
which be handles with a skill and dexter
ity that We have never seen surpassed
q specious mode Of reasoning, in which
it takes keen minds to detect errors. In
his practice with his brother lawyers, he
is the soul of honor, and the ~personiica-
ton of %gentlemanly courtesy. lie is hu-
morous and witty, and keenly appreciates
anything which borders upon the ludl-
crous. Is always alive to the pleasures
o social intercourse, and possesses CONVEX,
~salional powers of the very highest order.
Is of that domestic, home-loving lempera-
ment, we should judge, that fnds his
purest enjoymentS, and sweetest hours in
the bosom of an idolizid home. Although
he is no, Il person of large brain, yet it
is of that fine texture that perceiyes and
a~pprehends with q glance everything with
which it comes in contact, and makes up
by quickness, lightning-like rapidly Of
movement, what it lacks in force and
power. Mr.. tIutchins is Il of those
public spirited men, that are Of essential
benefit to any community in which they
live. Is ever advocating progress, and
social reform, and striving to break down
and sweep away fanatical predjudices,
and supersiilious bigoiry. On the sub
ject of education he is unliring, aud ai-
vocates lis dissemination among all
classes, on the broadest principles. We
suppose that the Union Schools Of this
place owe their existence, and especial
~ are indebted to him more than any
other one man, for the perfection and
eminent usefulness to which they have n,
lasl attained. Socially he IS very u
teous and aiTlble, too much so, some have
thought, 10 be genuine, yet We have never
seen anytt1ias but seemed to Us the mere
expression, the exPaaca., Of KIM and
generous feelings.
AS Il is concpeded that TrumbIii
County will have the strongest claim to
the nextmember from this Distric;
to Congress. Whenever the weight of in
creasing years shall rest too heavily upon
venerable head Of our tried Representa-
Joshua r. GiJdings, we hope TO see
Mr.. Hutchins take the place which has
been 50 long and worihiiy filed by
lIr. G. Mr.. Giddings has been eminent
ly serviceablc, to the cause he has
espoused, he has grown old in IFS
service, the frosts OF many winters have
whiiened his locks, the contests of years
have bowed his giant frame, and when
he retires from the lists, his brow will be
,ncireled with the IaureIs Of many a hard
field.
Mr.. Ilulchias is an easy, fluent speak
er. and a clear-headed politician. lie was

Republicans, one who will always

liberty. and equal rights TO all mankind.
