An ExTRAoRpINARY LINGUIsT.-ItlS sta
ted by the Rev. DR.. Hodge, of the Princeton
Theological seminary at Princeton, in an ad-
dress to the students, that the late Dr. A.
A. Alexander, when twelve years old, took
down an Arabic Grammar, which he stu
died. and at Ii had read though the whole
of the Koran in Arabic. He then took up
Persian; and afterwards, whilst quite lad,
studied Hebrew, Syriac and Chaldee. These
he mastered without aid. Latin and Greek
he pursued in the ordinary course of instruc-
ton at College. The modern languages
next occupied his attention. They were as
mere playthings to him. There was not a
modern language with which he was not
familiar-Danish, Spanish, French, Italian,
&c. Commonly this faculty of acquiring
languages stands alone; but DR.. Alexan-
der was also philosophical Philogian, and
made Comparative Philology special stu
dy. The chief thing that stimulated him In
the acquisition of so many languages, was
their literature or bellies lettres. His store
of antiquarian, historic and biblical krowl-
edge, was wonderful. His memory was
tenacious of everything, ideas words, &c.
As a remarkable instance of his tenaci-
ty of words Dr. Hodge related the follow
ing: At the beginning of the term 40 to 81
students are generally matriculated without
regard to the order Of their names. 1t has
often happened that on the next day DIR. AL
exander would be in my study, and having
occasion to see the names of the students,
would ask him for list, when he would go
up to the desk, and merely from having
heard them on the previous day would write
down in the order of their matriculation the
exact name Of each, even to the middle let
ter, and also their classes. His knowledge
was most mprehensive--when he took mp
subject he examined it in all its bearings,
even to the most remote circumstances, which
would never occur TO an ordinary mind.

WoSprR.-a Mechanical Genius Re
,co,ded IN las Litetime.- New York
Cbronicleof this week contains the following
sketch of one of the luckiest men in this or any
other country: J.
Strangers in New York have often notl-
ced, with interest tall, portly, weii-to-ao-
looking Quakerlike parsonage, who' %,'n
long, flowing brown hair. serene anu pe-
neyolent countenance, a white ctasa''
broad brimmed hat, and easy, rational gar
meuts and gait, was passing through D,1ao-
way, at firm and manly STRIDE. Mos'
frequently, perhaps, he has been met some
where between the City Hall ana the d.
Nicholas.
Yet notwithstanding his Quaker aspect,
there was something indescribable IN MS APP
pearance which smaeked Of the earth,
earthly; something in the assured repose
of his countenance, which, though 1t might
mark conscience void of offence, was
suggestive equally of a large bank account
at the Park or some other 'two-milnon m
stitution.' This suggestion would seem to
get confirmation when the speculative oh.
server, crossing causally to Brooklyn, would
encounter the benevolent looking Quaker,
sitting in splendid phaeton, with four dash
ing horses in hand, whom he managed with
the same ease and self-possession which had
marked his pedestrian mood on Broadway
By his siGe sat noble-looking woman, OF
whose distinguished air, the observer faneled
that fond and complacent consciousness
lurked in his eye and bearing.
This gentleman as the world goes, has a
right to be SERENE and take his comfort
IF an income of 100000 per anum, now
regularly received without other trouble
than to take it and look after it, can do any
thing to make man contented, this ndivid-
ual is the exact illustration of such state
ofthings. lie is Elias Howe, Jr, and the
distinguished looking lady is his wife, and
the splendid phaeton and dashing horses are
purchased with his own money, received
in the shape of royalty on the sewing ma
chine, of which he was the inventor. Men
have come by fortunes in much worse ways.
This is the result of his happy ingenuity
May he truly enjoy it, and use it WE'LL
His popularity is the back-stitch principle,
for the use of which he receives five dollars
on the price Of every sewingmachine that
employs it. We are informed that his pa
tent expires in two years, and that 50 yaiua-
BILE is the restriction of the right TO those who
use it, that they are DESTROYS to extend the
patent, and SO prevent this universally adj
mired and useful invention from being
thrown open to promiscuous competition.
In mechanical and mercantile view, this
is on interesting fact. Here is patent
which enriches the inventor beyond all pre-
cedent, and yet is so valuable to the numer-
GUS manufacturers who employ it, that they
prefer to continue the payment OF the royal
ty."
