HAND WR1r1Ss.-The Round Table has
an elaborate article on autographs, elected
by the late Fairs, which has notices Of an
cient and modern hand writing. Ariosto
wrote in small, fine, printed character,
and Tasso in large, free and flowing style.
Goethe wrote neatly, and even elegantly.
Porson wrote Greek as plain as type.
Brougham writes with Grabbed illegibility;
Hawthorne wrote with hand far from
neat, and somewhat confused; Longfellow
writes with u round, back handed, elegant
fashion. Theodore Parker had a cramped,
hieroglyphic style, that competed with
Choate's famous scratches for absolute
unreadableness. DIR. Chalmers kept an
even hand. Byron wrote an awkward,
contorted script; Scott wrote in regular,
honest characters, though he constantly
failed to cross his is. Emerson writes
with rushing air: Willis with sharp, even
firmness; Charles Sprague with womanly
delicacy; Fanny Kemble with nervous
stroke and womanly angularity; Whittier
with indecision. without either strength
or symmetry; Whipple with lofty loops,
that are chirographic pun upon his Pc
nultimate syllable; Hillard, precise, bal.
anced, and constrained; Motley is minute
and clipt; and George Ticknor lis leeible
and light. The scratch of Fitz- Green
Halleck looks as if he might have prac-
tised the Morse alphabet and got crazy on
it. The Round Table gives Characters
tics of others. The facts show that chiro-
graphy can hardly be relied on as an in
dication of character. The philosophic
theory of this matter, as put by LaYater
and Others, is stated to be, that certain
qualities of the brain act through the ner-
vous organization, and thus regulate the
motion Of the hand, by the dependen,
muscles, SO that the form of the letters
taken upon the paper will show cores
pondence with those qualities, as surely
as the lines in the spectrum will designate
the nature Of the body that emits the ray.
