Smyrna times., 1871-09-20

The New York correspondent Of the Boston
Courier, who processes to know whereof he
writes thinking that it might interest curious
people to know something of Henry Ward
Beecher's habits of composition, says that he
writes with inconceivabe rapidity, in large,
sprawling hand, lines wide apart, and words SO
thinly scattered about that some of his pages
remind one Of the famous description of page
of NapOleOn's manuscript scratch, blot,
and splutter. Writing so hastily, he writes
with some inaccuracy, and as he finds correc-
ton very irksome, he hands his manu- cript
over to some one familiar with his handwriting,
to be prepared for the press. 1t is then set
up, the rough proof corrected, and fair re-
wise handed to the author. This he reads with
extreme care, and makes so many corrections,
erasures, and additions that it is sometimes
cheaper to reset the whole than to correct
from his proofs. A second proof is then pre-
pared for him, and sometimes third and
fourth, before his critical judgement is satisfied,
and the stereotyper allowed to cast the plates
1t will be noticed that in the preparation of
copy Mr.. Beecher's habits are directly oppo-
site to those of Mr.. Greeley, who prepares his
copy with great care, punctuating every sem
tence, marking every capital letter and para
graph, and, in short, completing his work be-
fore it leaves his hand The compositor and
proof-reader have only to follow copy to be
sure of coming out right. Mr. Beechers i'm
petuOus temperament rebels against such
laboriOus finish

IMMORTALITY How beautiful the follow
ing gem from the pen of Prentice, and how
happy the heart that can see these beauties as
he pOrtrays them:
"Why is it that the rainbow and the cloud
come over us with a beauty that Is not of
earth, and then pass away, and leave us
muse on their faded loveliness? Why is it
that the stars which hold their nightly festi-
val around the midnight throne are placed
above the reach of our limited faculties, for
ever mOcking US with their unapproachable
glory? And why is it that bright forms of
human beauty are presented to our view,
and then take from us, leaving the thousand
streams of affection to flow back in Alpine
torrents upon our hearts? We are born to
higher destiny than that of earth. There is
realm where the rainbow never fades-where
the stars will be set out before us like islands
that slumber on the ocean, and where the
beautiful being that passes before us like a
meteor will stay in our presence forever"

The Petersburg (Va.) Progress, a Demo-
cratic journal, has the following on the Hon.
A. H. Stephens: " If the food had occurred
in the time of Mr.. Alexander Fl. Stephens we
verify believe that during the 80 days rain he
would have been astride of the ridge-pole of
the Atlantic Sun office, holding a faded
umbrella over his head, drawing up his dimin-
utive legs to keep them out of the surrounding
editorial to the people of the late Confederacy,
to prove that the shower was null and void,
and the flood a matter to be resisted at the
ballot box; and no doubt people would have
been found in Georgia who would have stig-
matized Noah's as a new DEPARTURE and
have hazarded both life and soul on the faded
umbrella and ponderous editorial of poor little
DIR. Stephens"
