merely tn say thatwe are guided in our views not
only by experience, but from the records Of sew
erai periods during the present century.
TIE further talk yesterday was of Intelligence
f,om England. As there has been no later arrival
than the Europa Of the 18th, az the intelligence re-
ceived may be considered mere verbiage
| thing to pay the telegraph. Take the dispatches
received yesterday, and what do they amount to-
Just nothing at all. They caused . eommoton
about midday, when posted up on the bulletin
| boards. II is about time that our community
should understand that nine-tenths OF the tee-
graphic adyices have no claims whatever to belief.
All we in the South have to do, is to prepare and
| whip the Yankee invaders. drive off the insolent
| bIockaders at the mouth of the Mississippi and
open our port, and keep it open. If Great Britain
goes to war with Lincolndom, so much the better.
There was an immensely of nonsense talked Of
yesterday on the flags about blockade, England,
war and recognition. In the midst of all the war
tall, it was cheering to meet with other talk. The
claims of our volunteers and soldiers not for
gotten. The great Volunteer Gift Lottery was
talked of. The ST. Louis Hotel is now the great
attraction Of the day. Our either s, one and all,
are urged to attend. The holy cause of Southern
Independence appeals to the generosity and hbe-
ralty Of our citizens. The annual holidays are at
hand. Instead of spending thousands of dimes and
dollars for general holiday gifts and festivities let
every dime or dollar be devoted to the aid and
wants Of our soldiers therefore, so one, go ALL to
the st. Louis Hotel and contribute what you can.
We met on the flags yesterday citizen Thomas
20. Sully. He has just returned from general
tour among the hospitals and receptaeles of the
sick soldiers in Virginia. We are gratfed to learn
that the Medical Department Of the Government
has been brought into something Of a satisfactory
shape; that many abuses and Inconvenience,
heretofore complained Of, have been rectifed, and
that our Louisiana volunteers are in good spirits
and ready to whip any number of Hessians, though
they do not believe in West Point. an fia p.

"Why do you have all those windows
raised and 40 much light2"
Mr.. Douglas repliod' $50 that we
can have fresh air."
At Mr.. Douglass s. request Mr.. Rhodes
changed the dying mans position again
in the bed for the last time. He now
lay rather down in the middle of the
bed, upon his left side, his head slightly
bent forward and off the pillow His
wife sat beside him, holding his right
hand with both Of hers, and leaning
touderly over him, sobbing. Mr. Rhodes
remarked to Mrs Douglas:
"I am afraid he does not lio comfort
able;" in reply to which Mr.. Douglas
said:
"He is--very comfortable"
These we're his last Ineligible words
From o'clock he was speochless, but
evidently retained his consciousness
When few moments before his death,
his wife leaned lovingly over him and
/ |sobbingly asked, Husband, do you
know me?" he raised his eyes aud smiled
and though too weak to speak, the
movements of the muscles Of his mouth
evinced that he was making an almost
dying struggle to comply with the re.
quest.
His death was calm and peaceful; a
few faint breaths after 9 o'clock; a slight
rattling of his throat; a short, quick
convulsive shudder, and Stephen A
Douglas had passed from time into
eternity.

The descendants of literary men, or
men Of genius, are generally few. 1t
is very seldom that men distinguished
for intellectual power leave more than
brief progeny behind them, and men
of imaginative genius almost never
There are some exceptions to this, as
for instance, Charles Dickens has no
less than seven sons, and we all know
Of instances in this country and abroad
where great men and great poets have
had large families; still the rule remains,
that with the increase Of intellect there
is a decrease of progeny. Perhaps the
children of great men are oftener female
than male This rule applies to ma
tions as well as individuals. New coun-
tries, with rough, unlettered people,
where the physical is we'll developed
and the intellect lies fallow, have a rap
id increase Of population.
1t is said that, with the exception of
Surrey and Spenser, there is not a sin
gle representative in the male line, so
far down as the third generation, of any
English poet; and the same is true Of
France. Chaucer's only son died child.
less. Shakespeare and Milton ceased in
family with grand daughters. Raleigh,
Cowley Bacon, Butler, Bolingbroko,
Addison and Burke, the last of whom
died heart-broken from the loss of an
only son, transmitted no blood. Byron
left only one daughter-"Ada, sole
daughter of his house and heart. 49,
Pope, johnson, Hume, Gibbon, Cold.
smith, Swift, Locke, Newton, Cowpcr,
Gray, and many other literary men of
former times, whose names are destined
to be repeated from generation to gen
Grafton, never married. Of the two
great British orators-Pitt and Fox
one was a bachelor and tho other was
childless. Tom Moore's children all
preceded him to the grave. Walter
Scott left sons and daughters; but we
believe that the last of his descendants
has recently died; if not, the honors of
the House of Abbotsford remain with
one little girl. Tom Hood had one son
to bear his name, and left only one
daughter. Thackeray has daughters,
but Disraeli is childless Thus we run
through the names Of the intellectual
luminarios of our age, or any age-of
our country, or any country, and we
shall find the rule true-that many
children are not the gifts Of great minds.
1t has been said that this brightness
and greatness indicates ripeness in such
a family, and a speedy end. The fact
we know--the cause is more difficult to
name Nowburyport Herald.
