INSTANCES OF WONDERFUL MEMORY.

Themistocles had memory so extraordinary
that he never forgot what he had once seen or
heard. Thos. Cranwell, in three months, CON-
mltted to memory an entire translation OF the
bible, as made by Erasmus. Lelbnltz was
called walking dictionary. He knew all the
old Greek and Latin poets by heart, and could
recite the whole of Virgil, word for word,
when an old man. Magliabecchi, the founder
of the great library at Florence, had so won
derful memory that Gibbon styled him "mein-
ory personifed Saunderson, mathemati-
clan, was able to repeat all Horace's Odes, and
great part Of other Latin authors. La CrOZe,
after listening to twelve verses in as many lam
guages, could not only repeat them in the order
in which he heard them, but could transpose
them Button knew all his own works by heart.
Samuel Johnson retained with astonishing ac-
curacy everything he had perused, no matter
how hastily. Pope was able to turn with read
mess to the precise place in a book where he
had seen any passage that had struck him, and
Byron could recite nearly all the poems he had
ever read, together with the criticisms on them.
The memory of Cuvier the naturalist, was the
most wonderful one of his age, and it is said
Prof Louis Agassiz has a memory similar.
Cuvier not only retained the names OF plants,
animals, fishes, birds and reptiles, classified
under every system of natural science, but he
also remembered. in their minutest details, all
the things that had been written about them, in
all time. Scalger obtained so perfect an ac-
quantance with one Latin book, that he offered
to repeat any passage, with a dagger against
his breast, to be used against him in case of q
failure of memory. Lope de Vega wrote up
wards of two thousand original pieces, but not
nore than three hundred of them were ever
printed, and he could repeat nearly all of them
with astonishing accuracy by heart. Chancel-
lor dAguesseau, d of France, made himself mas
ter of the Latin Greek, Hebrew, Italian Por-
tuguese, Spanish and English languages. So
easily did he add new language to his list,
that he always spoke of its acquisition as an
amusement. Nebuhr, the learned historian of
Rome, and son of the celebrated traveller, was
one of the greatest of modern linguists. He
had actually mastered nineteen languages in
addition to his own.

TEN YEARS AGO.

About ten years ago Daniel E. Sickles COM
mltted c0wardly murder in the streets OF the
city of Washington. Now he represents the
United States at the Court of Spain. Less
than ten years ago Governor Joe Brown, of
Georgia, was the leader of the secession move
ment, and afterwards originator. builder and
manager of the Andersonville Prison-pen in
which so many thousands of Union soldiers
perlshed. Now Brown is the leader Of the
Radical party in Georgia. Considerably less
than ten years ago General Longstreet was at
the head of an army, dealing death and des
truction to Union soldiers Now he is the ap-
pointee of Grant to lucrative position in New
Orleans. Ten years ago Ben. Butler, at the
Charleston Convention, voted Gfty-three times
for jeff. Davis as a candidate for President
and at that time was poor man. Now he is
the head and front-the very quintessence-of
Radicalism, and worth his millions of dollars.
Ten years ago U. S. Grant was penniless pen
siOner on the bounty of the Dent family. Now
he is President of the United States, and the
entire Dent family are pensioners on the "Gov-
crnment."
The list might be continued on, ad infnitun,,
of Radical Senator's Congressman and Office
holders who, ten years since, were as poor as
Jobs turkey" and now. through the Radical
system Of " economy, ~ retrenchment," and
honesty" have become millionaires, and roll
in luxury, with liveried servants to do their
bidding. They pay nothing towards the sup
port of the Government. having their il-gotten
gains invested III government bonds which they
themselves have exempted from taxation. They
| lrgislate themselves free of all the burdens of
government and wiring from the working class
es the proceeds of their hard earned toll to
defray the expenses of the government and
support them in idleness by drawing gold in
| terest on their government securities.

THE Savannah Republican says that it is re-
marked that since Sambo has exhibited his in
ability to control the Southern elections in the
interest of his carpet-bagging Radical friends,
the latter manifest a disposition to drop him.
A while ago it was fashionable to credit the
negroes with about all the virtues, and held
them up as shining marks for the imitation of
the white trash" But Tennessee and Vir-
ginia have been lost to "loyalty" through the
apathy or inability of the colored brethren;
and a correspondent of a Radical paper pro-
ceeds remorselessly TO "smash the ebony idol"
He says the negroes will steal the nails out of
the heel of boot. He also says that their
moral condition is lower than in slavery, there
being no check on illicit connection. Relig-
iously there is likewise decadence; and upon
the whole, in his opinion, the race is going to
the deuce at something higher than 2:4O rate.

THE KISSING BUSINEss.-At the trial Of
the Rev. S. p. Lynn, at Pittsburg few days
since, for Ministerial Kissing" the Rev Dr.
Mckinney said on the matter Of kissing: Il
know very well what the views Of young ladies
are; at least | knew what they were forty or
fifty years ago. Some of them struggle very
hard against being kissed; some of them, in
fact make deal of struggling. At least they
used to in my time. Then, again, others of
them are kissed, and don't complain"
We suppose, according to the opinion of the
venerable Doctor of Divinity, those of " them
that are kissed and don't complain" do not
make any trouble about it among the clergy.
Ii we understand this case of the Rev. Lynn,
he was waited upon and called to account for
kissing two young ladies while pastor of West
minister Church. Cleveland When the prop
er,y appointed committee waited upon him and
asked him what he had to say in regard to the
matter OF kissing the two young ladies, he re-
piled that he had only this to say, THAT he had
kissed one Of the young ladies because she had
dared him TO, and the other because he wanted
to-" This was frank and candid; and as ia
cob kissed Rachel because he wanted to, the
matter might have been dropped. But proba-
bly, some of the members of the church, who
were no longer i'll the dew of youth, felt as
some of the elder brothers and sisters of re-
ligious society did, one Of whose pecuarities
was to greet each other with kiss at all their
meetings. Among them were a young man and
a very pretty girl, "whose lips" probably, as
the poet hath it, "were like strawberries halt
snothcred in cream" and when they met they
of course saluted each other with the regener-
alton kiss. After some weeks at one of the
usual meetings, n staid and venerable brother
said: THAT while they regarded kissing as
very proper, it had been observed him. as well
as some of the venerable and unmarried sisters
present, that the young brother and sister
when they met, were in the habit of kissing
with rather too much of an appetite, and they
thought with such young people, who were not
always consideratc of the feelings of the maid
en- sisters, that hereafter the accustomed salu.
tation might very properly be omitted, else it
might create unpleasant feelings in the society >

A COOP HIT.-The Louisville Journal
makes the following good hit: 1t is stated in
the disE atches from Washington that fifteen
clerks in the Sixth Auditors Office have suf-
fered deductions from their pay for lost time,
arriving late or leaving the hour of closing
business, during the month of August. 1t is
understood that deductions are to be made in
like manner in other Offices of the Treasury
Department. We should suppose that Presi-
dent Grant and the members of his Cabinet
would blush to think of those deductions. If
they, like their clerks, were "dockcd" for lost
time, what would their salaries amount toa
And why are they not as much bound to give
their time to the public service as the clerks
are! Do they acknowledge their functions to
be of less importanc than those of theirclerks9

RADICAL FEELING TOWARDS PEABODY.

RADICAL FEELING TOWARDS PEABODY.
We clip the following from an exchange:
Almost coincdal with Mrs Stoves sensa-
ton, we have another outrage from one of the
brotherhood of the new dispensation. 1t Is not
equal to Mrs. Stoves venture; but 1t Is char
acteristic type o: the man and his class. A
late number of the New York Independent con-
tains communication from W. Lloyd Garrl-
son in which he seeks to belttle and bedaub
Mr. Geo. Peabody, the great and pure hearted
phllanthropist. Garrison says
"No matter what medicinal virtue may exist
in any Northern mineral Spring, true to his
Southern sympathies he hastens to the White
Sulphur Springs in Virginia, where he is sure
of finding congenial society-those Springs be-
in the favorte resort of the elite OF rebeldom,
who have collectively welcomed his presence
by adopting a series of congratulatory rcsolu-
tons"
Any person who would utter such low,
mean and cowardly SANDER, on the greatest
philanthropist of the present age is totally void
of a generous feeling. A man who has given
away nearly thirteen millions of dollars in acts
of charity is thus attacked by this narrow
minded Puritanical fanatic, merely because he
has visited the White Sulphur Springs in "Vir,
pinia." If he had visited Long Branch, Sara
toga or Cape May, and had given Grant span
of horses or a house, then it would have been
all right, and this snivelling, would,be censor
and political leper, would have been loud in his
praises of George Peabody. He would have
Mr.. Peabody patronize, by his presence, the
mineral springs in Yankeedom, no matter
whether they would benefit his health or not,
rather than follow the advice of his physicians
and go to the Virginia Springs, where he would
meet the "elite of rebeldom." We think Mr.
Peabody showed his excellent good sense, Rot
only in selecting the White Sulphur Springs
but also in selecting the company in which he
mingled, VIM. Lloyd Garrison to the contrar,
Notwithstanding.
