WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT ON OLD
AGE.-Mr. Bryant, in response to
the address of welcome by the
Speaker of the New York Assembly,
said 81 cannot take to myself the
flattering words which have been ut
tered by the presiding officer Of this
Assembly. 1t would be the utmost
stretch of rehabilitation to do so.
You will allow me, therefore, gentle
men, to put a great deal of what has
been said, as wei as a great deal Of
the honor Of this reception, to the
credit of old age Old age, my friends,
is a rarity; and rarity, you know,
scarcity, as an element of value.
Things that are not useful are often
rated at high value merely on ac-
count of the circumstance that they
are rarely to be met with. If pebs
bles were as scarce as diamonds, peb-
bles would no longer be picked up to
throw at dogs, but would be sought
out eagerly by the minerologists,
would DO deposited in cabinets, and
would be gazed at with admiration.
| therefore hnd it proper, and no
other than proper, that | should
divide the greater part of this honor
with those who are my coevals, the
remnants of generation that have
passed away, overlooking the flood
of waters in which they must them
selves soon sink and be submerged.

The Young Not Always the Loveliest.

History is full of accounts OF the
destinations of women who were no
longer young. Thus, Helen, of Troy
was over 40 when she perpetrated
the most famous elopement on record,
and she could not have been very
juvenile when the ill-fortune of Paris
restored her to her husband, who is
reported to have received her with
unquestioning love and gratitude.
Perieles welded the courtesan Aspa-
STA when she was 36. and yet she
afterward, for thirty years or more,
welded an undiminished reputation
for beauty.
Cleopatra was past 80 when AM
tony fell under the spell, which was
never lsssencd until her death near
ly ten years after. and Liva was 80
when she won the heArtof Augustus,
over whom she maintained her as
cendancy to the last Turning 10
modern history, whore it il possible
to verify dates more accnrate ly, we
have the extraordinary Diana 81

then Duke Of Orleans, and just half
her age-hecame attached to her ;
and she was held as The first lady
and most beautiful woman a. Court,

and of thel accession topowar of Cath

80 when she was said TO be the hand
soonest Queen of Europe and when
Buckingham and Richelieu were her
Jealous admirers.
Ninon de lEnclos, the most cele-
brated wit and beauty Of hor day,
was the idcl of three generations OF
the golden youth of France, and she
was 72 when Able dc Bernia fell 10
love with her. True it is, that in the
case of this lady a rare combination
of culture, talent and personal attrac-
ton endowed their possessor SEEM

Up to the time of her death, at 81,
she seems to have retained the same
bewitching power, for the lamenta,
tions were heartfelt among all those
who had known her personally.
Mile. Mars, the celebrated French
tragedienne, only attained the zenith
of her beauty and power at 45 At
that period the loneliness Of Der

brated throughout Europe. The

Barras was ousted from her power,

ed to be the most beautiful woman in
Europe, which rank she held for
fifteen years.

she will retain power of never-fail'

They are getting worked up
on the subject of the steam wh ,stle
nuisance in Connecticut. The Board
of Railroad Directors report 10 the
Legislature that they have been
obliged to order q suspension Of
whistling at two crossings in Daniel

piercing sounds, at three crossings
