S1E WILLIAM Brown, the senior partner

Sir WILLIAM Brown, the senior partner
of the old and eminent banking firms Of
Brown, Shipley K Co., of Liverpool, and
Brown, Brothers 4 Co., of New York, died
at Liverpool on the Sd instant, at the ripe
age of 81 years. Sir William was an able
and successful merchant, for many years a
useful member Of Parliament for Lancashire,
and always Staunch and influential friend
in England of the United States and their
Government He was native OF the North
of Ireland, born before the emigration Of his
father, Alexander Brown, of Baltimore, to
this country. The junior brothers were, we
believe, all born on this side, and of these,
Mr.. James Brown, of New York, and Mr..
John A. Brown, OF Philadelphia, survive
him. His grandson, and the grandson also
on the mothers side, OF Mr.. James Brown,
of New York, succeeds to the title and landed
estates of the deceased Baronet. The value
of the whole estate which he has left to his
heirs is probably not less than seven millions
sterling money, or 100000.

Woman's Transgression.

Numerous works are written on mans
transgression, and the punishment con-
sequent upon his fall, but either from
bashfulness or some other cause very lit
tie is said Of Womans transgression -
St. Paul unlike Sampson was not ruined
by a woman, and was consequently able
to speak boldly" He says IL suffer
not woman to teach, nor to usurp
authority over the man, but to be in
silence Woman lost her status in the
events of the fall. Exactly what drove
man from paradise, drew down women
from ascending. He superintended Ed
en- and ruled the lower creation; but he
yielded to the influence of woman, eat
the forbidden fruit, and was doomed,
like slave. to become tiller of the
ground. She in the same way solaced
man, acted as his help-meet, and guided
his affections but she listended to the
serpent, persuaded man to become sin
ner, and was doomed to minglo eorrow
and death with her wonanly enjoyments.
and as both wife and mother to suffer
anguish of body and grief Of mind. Her
condition was henceforth that Of humbl-
ing silence, and quite subordination.--
adam was not deceived, but the woman
being deceived was in the transgression;"
he was her duPe, and she the serpent's;
he the victim of his love for her, and sho
the victim Of her own presumption; and
while he fell from his control of power
over Eden and the animals, she, in equal
justice fell from her control of affection
over him, and was destined to ''learn in
silence with all subiection.'

ODGEvILLE, WISCONSIN, THURSDAY NOVEMBER 8. 1864.

the whole soul and spirit Of ''The Ra-
ven" are absolutely and entirely Oeoi-
dental and Christian in their nature
We say nothing of the details, the incl
dents, the surrounding, The STUDENT 5
roDm and his fire with its dying embers,
his bust of Pallas, his arm chair with its
velvet violet lining: the dark December
clouds and wind outside his window
panes, and all the other accessories Of
the wild and wonderful picture which
the poet SO minutely drew. We pass
over the acknowledged and obvious
fact that Poe adapted to his own work
some of the peculiarities which he espe.
! cially admired in the metre and rhyme
Of Elizabeth Barrett Browning. But
| the truth is that there could be no"Ra-
ven'' poem at all except as the product
of an Occidental brain and nature en-
tirely imbued with Christian feeling.
We are not aware that Oriental poets
are in the habit Of contemplating with
passionate longing the pure reunion Of
severed souls in ''that distant Eden
where the poet hoped to clasp ''the rare
and radient maiden whom the angels
name Lenore." Reckless, weak and
degraded as Edgar Poe was, the whole
| poem of ''The Raven" shows that there
was within his fallen nature pure depth
of noble, tender and peculiar Christian
aspiration and faith such as even the
highest Of the classic poets have not re
vealed, and which must surely be utterly
incomprehensible to a Persian minstrel.
If there really be IN rervm notura any
Persian poem whatever which could
have suggested any notion Of ''The Ra-
ven" and which Poe might have seen,
it can only be something bearing so
faint a resemblance to the masterpiece
Of American poetry as to leave to Edgar
Poe the full merit Of that originality
which we acknowledge in Shakespeare,
when out Of the Danish legend he made
Hamlet" or award to Goethe, when
from the old stories and mystery plays
he constructed 'sFaust."
Moreover, it can be further shown
that he is the author Of "Annabel Lee
and the exquisite poem to- ''Helen, and
the aSong Of the Bells, and all the
other beautiful and touching lyrics
which have made Poes name famous, We
shall still maintain that the man whom
the world credits with the production
ofthese latter poems is also the creator
of '.The Raven"

cemetry-literally an army of dead
mems bones Besides the pile of skulls
and bones, in a chamber adjoining were
the bones of the archbishops, in open
boxes, with their names and ages label
led on them, and those of the two sons of
a King Of Persia, who came hither on a
| pilgrimage and died in the convent;
their iron shirts, the only dress they
wore on their long journey from their
/ fathers court, are in the same box
Other skeletons were lying about, some
in baskets, and some arran ged On shelves,
and others tied together and hanging
from the roof. In one corner were the
I bones of St. Stephen not the martyr
who was stoned to death at jerusalem
but some pious anchorite Of later and
less authentic canonization. AS to the
effect upon the mind, of such burial
places as this, or the catacombs to which
| have referred, | can say from my own
experience that they destroy altogether
the feeling Of solemnity with which we
look upon the grave. remember once
in walking through the long rows of dead,
arranged like statutes in inches of the
wall, / remarked to the friar who accom-
pained, that he promenaded every day
among his old acquaintances and he
stopped and opened a box, and took out,
piecemcal. the bones of one, who, he
said, had been his closest friend, and
laughed as he pulled them about, and
told me of the fun and jokes they had
together.

pronounce the German letters in order
to spell and pronounce correctly. The
difficulty, almost the only difficulty in
the pronunciation of the English lam
guage by foreigners arises from the local
or syllable emphasis or accent. Foreign
scholars express themselves in respect to
emphasis that it is the most difficult part.
In fact, that there is more difficulty in
the emphasis than in all the other parts
Of our language. A German scholar con-
yersing with us on this subject, remark
ed that the 'sem- phas-is" was the trouble
Instead of saying as we do, em-pha sis,
he puts the stress upon the middle syll-
able, and takes one Of the letters from
the last syllable, SO that it reads en-
phas-is; and really we hardly knew VI lat
the word meant, as he used it. He
knew the meaning Of the word, but did
not know how to pronounce. We hear
men Of Irish decent pronounce their
words without any brogue except in the
emphasis. They will tell about edu-
cate and calculate, and thus we detect
their foreign origin.
When all the children Of all nations
are educated phonetically, we shall come
near to the acquisition so much to be de-
sired, namely, UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE.

How Copperhead was Shaved.

paper from his pocket, aud instructed
the knight of the razor to take off his
beard, The barber was an African He
simply replied Eyes boss, and produced
his implements. The customer sat down.
He was duly shaved. His face was
wiped, and he arose, donned his coat
and hat.
GLOW mucb?' he asked in dolorous
voice, as he adjusted his shirt collar.
@Fifteen cents, boss
"Nhy | thought you shaved for ten
cents at this shop"
"Dat ar's the average, sah, was the
reply. "Ten cents is de price of a shave
in dis yer shop. You ccme in here,
sab, and read de news Of Sheridan's
victory, and your face got about six
inches longer dan when you come in.
If your face was like it was afore you
read that var news, ten cents was de
price. When you commenced to read
about de defeat Of Early, den your face
stretched about four inches. OATS
what makes it wurf fifteen cents for der
shave
The customer couldn't restrain grin,
though he was a Copperhead, and the
hit at him was by ''nigger." He laid
down the fee and walked out. lie was

Language-~Its Difficulties.

Everybody who speaks the English
language as his native tongue knows
that persons of nearly every other nation
ality speak the English language with a
brogue. No matter how much longer a
person has been accustomed to the Eng
lish language than to his native tongue,
he still speaks with shat foreign accent.
Let young man of twenty who speaks
French, or German. or Italian come to
America, and hear not word Of his ma
tive tongue spoken for forty years, thus
giving him forty years in the English ian
guage against twenty in his native
tongue, and he will speak with such a
eign accent that ten minutes conyer-
sation will reveal, perhaps twice ten err
rors in English pronunciation. But the
same person will write letter of 4 pag-
es,or discourse of40pages, and not make
a mistake in spelling or il. grammer,
and no English scholar can detect the
fact that it was written by a person of
foreign birth and education. But he
could not read half a page Of it aloud
without revealing the fact that he had
learned to speak another language first.
| On the other hand, a man who speaks
the English language as his native
tongue can learn to speak the German
so that no German can detect the fact
that hei foreigner The same is true
Of the French language, the Italian, and
the Spanish. A Frenchman will learn
the German, or German will lealtl the
French language, and an italian or a
Spainard will learn either, and not be de-
tected as being foreign to the tongue
Moreover, man never misspells Ger
man word. IF he knows how to pro
nounce it, he will always writeit correct
| ly. This, we know, is far from truth in
respect to the English language, fo1
there are more exceptions in our Ian
guage than rules. We do not pronounce
as We spell, and tho consequence is, there
1 are many good takers who are misera
bic spoilers. Nay, there are many pub
lie speakers who pronounce their word:
correctly, who could not spell one hal
fof them ifrequired to write them. And
there are very many persons who car
read the English language, thatis, com
prehend it, who are not able to speak i

Party Opposition.

At the present time we hear consid-
cradle abJut the ferceness of late and
particularly the present political con-
test, which is without doubt the most
violent, and in many instances carried
on in worse spirit than any previous
campaign But to show that in olden
times, the different parties were not on
the most agreeable and peaceable terms
we will relate circumstance which ac-
cured some "a years ago:
The 18th Of July, 1890, was celebrat-
ed with much parade at the townof Car
Isle in Pennsylvania. The country was
at the time divided into two great pol
itical parties called federal and anti-fcd-
eral. The federalists were friends to
the new constitution, (then but recen-
tly adopted,) and followed the lead Of
! Washington, Hamilton, Knox. Picker
ing, Madison and others. The anti-fed-
eralists were those who had opposed the
adoption Of the federal constitution, as
not sufficiently republican, or guarded
in its Notwithstanding, as they ap-
pretended, to consolidation and the
overthrow Of State rights; and were OF
the school of Patrick Henry and other
master spirits of that day. Mr.. Jeffer-
son was also considered as leaning to-
wards that party Out of this anti-fed-
eral party, the democratic republican
party sprung, who overturned the ad-
ministration of the elder Adams, and
brought Thomas Jefferson into power.
The two parties at Carlisle celebrated
distinctly, not condescending to mingle
in the festivities of the day though they
each rendered homage to the cause of in
dependence. Two well appointed infan-
try companies, completely armed and
equipped, paraded in martial array. The
deep and hostile feeling that animated
the people at large was evinced from
the fact, that these two military com.
panies, made up from young men, the
elite of their respective parties, went on
parade provided with bali cartridges in
their cartouch boxes, under an appre-
hension, that something might occur in
course of the day which would lead to a
conflict; and they proudly and haughtily
passed each other on the march, with
banners flying, looking defante, anima-
ted with the shrill tones of the fife and
drum, and ready at any moment to have
dealt out death and destruction in their
rival ranks, had the least cause of ofense
been given. Among the boys who fol-
lowed in the rear, many scuffle ensued,
in the cause Of federalism on one side,
and anti-federalism on the other.

The stalks and the vines and the fruitbearing tree
Are subjects that bend not to tyrants the knee;
But, bend with the weight of the harvest and field
Ever loyal and faithful harvest to yield. Ha
No planning and plotting among them is known
No traitor the sovereign would strike from his throne

His banks the earth-banks and stand on his farm
The banks that safe when the pancs alarm.
The stock is the catte-not fancy in breed ta
The shares the plowshares that score for the seed
Not quoted on Change in the brokers' array,
But shares on which Nature will dividends pay.
Their banks not those which the widows condemns
No officer pliers deposits from them; JD N

Yet are so small as we find ont of ground

The bread on his table, 'as good as the wheat -
And loving most dearly his wife, he may utter

With Juice of the apple the wife then may fill @,
The glass in viii ich lingors no tremors or ill;
And she may respond that, whatever betide her
Most happy she'll be with her husband beside her
