MISCELLANEOUS READING.
DEATH OF De QUINCY.

The philosnphic writer and opium-eater,
Thomas DE Quincy, has passed from earth.
This sai news reached US by the Aisa. The
author died On the Sth instant. at Edinburgh,
in the 6Sth year Of his age. According to
the scanty intelligence brought by the Asia,
Mr. DE Quinccy for many months past has
resided in Edinburgh, prcferring the town
to his house at Lasswade, mainly for the con
venience Of experimenting The passage
through the press, Of the collected edition OF
his works now issuing by Messrs. Hogg, and
OF which the tuurteeth and last volume is
nearly ready for publication For some weeks
past his health has been seriously affected:
but, as he was frequently an invalid, alarm
was not excited as to his condition till very
lately, and the end, though it could not be
said to be either sudden OF premature, was
yet )" far unexpected. Two Of Mr.. De Quin.
cey's daughters were with him at the time
of his death. The Scotchman says that al
most till the very last his perceptions were as
vivid, his interest in knowledge and affairs
as keen as ever, and while his bodily frame.
wasted by suffering and thought; day BY dsy
faded and shrunk, his mind retained unim.
paired its characteristic capaciousness, activ-
ity. and acutenesS.
Within a week or two before his death, he
talked readily and with all that delicacy OF
discrimination of hch his conversation par
took equally with his writings, Of such mat
ters as occupied public attention; displaying
50 much Of felas,icity and power that even those
who had the rare privilege OF seeing him in
those latter days, were startled aud shocksd by
the seeming suddenness of his death.
In the celebrated Confessions of an OPP
um Eater" Mr. De Quincy treated the events
Of his early life in manner which makes
that subject forever his own. His literary
character and career were far less startling
than amusing. lie had a most extensive
knowledge Of German literature. which he
proceeded Carlyle in introducing to English
readers. He has written some excellent
translations from Jean Paul Richter and
Lessing, whichappeared respectively in the
London Magazine and in Blackwood. A
paper on The Knocking in Macbeth"
is greatly admired, as well as n Lecture ON
murder, Considered as one Of the Fine Arts.
lie wrote many mastery articles in the
Encyclopedia Britannica. and papers ihnu-
merable IN the magazines already mentioned
and in TAFT, in which his Confessions
originally appeared. Metaphysical discus
sion, philosophical criticism, and biography
were the classes of subjects in which MIR. DE
Quincy exceIed, and To which his mascu-
line, clear. and logical style was eminently
adapted
