FDMrND KFAN.-T will describe Kaan

EDMUND KEAN.-I will describe Kean as he
appeared to me in private society. He was qui-
ct, unpretending, almost shy man. He said yery
little, and there nothing about him to aston
ish, scarcely indeed to interest you. His con-
versation was chiefly confined to matters con-
nected with the stage. In person he was short
neither robust, nor yet meagre; his features were
singularly expressive, all stamped with the un-
mistakable impress of high and superior intelli-
gence. His brow very fine, his mouth and chin
well-defned and good, and the whole face fash
ing with intellect and feeling. We all thought
him very handsome. Andthen his eyes! Those
magnificent eyes, large and dark-beaming and
lustrous-they perfectly illunined his counten-
ance, and on the stage were one of the most pow
crful agencies in the effects he achieved. His
smile had a peculiar and very remarkable capti-
vaton in it. OF his profession, its tolls and tri-
umphs-of his brother actors, of whom he ever
spoke most kindly-he was very fond of talking.
Othello he considered by far his best character
Richard II his next best. Sir Giles Overreach,
Shylock, Timon Of Athens, and others, he deem
ed far superior to his Richard III-thoueh he
used laughingly to say, :" 1t was that which bro't
him fame and fortune, and he was very much
obliged to the public for liking it as they did

drilling his home guards, presents an honora.
BILE contrast to Virginia expresident, who
is an open and active traitor TO his country, as
in by gone years he was to his party. Major
Fillmore's command is called the "Union
Continentals." They were out day or two
since, on the occasion of the departure of the
Buffalo volunteers, dressed in black, with the
Continental cocked-hat and Union cockades.
"a more imposing corps of men," says the
Buffalo Republic, "were never paraded." Led
by an ex-president, the ranks were made up
of men worthy of such an officer Doctors
of divinity, of national reputation, marched
side by side with doctors of medicine. Law.
yers of fifty years standing, capitalists, mer.
chants, bankers and orators, were the staple
OF the company. AS sample of what the
Continentals are composed, we would state
that in the ranks are those who have hitherto
held military positions, four generals, fifteen
colonies, twenty-nine majors, forty seven cap
tains, forty.one lieulenants and ensigns, and
twenty one honorary members.

the bullet dropped out from his clothes on his
left side. He had lost his valise on the way
from Lawrence to Boston, and so had slowed

tributes the preservation of his life from the
bullet which was doubtlessly aimed at his

He Immediately took deliberate aim at him
with his musket, and brought him down at
