MAcAULAY's PLAN OF LIFE.-When in India
Macaulay used to get up at 5 every morning (as
everybody else did), and till or 10 he read
Greek and Latin, and went through the whole
range of classical literature of every sort and
kind: one day in the Government library he met
with the works of Chrysostom, fourteen Greek
folios and he took homo first one volume and
then another, till he had read the whole through,
that is, he had not read every word, because he
had found that it contained great deal of stuff
not worth reading but he had carefully looked
at every page. and had actually read the greater
part asked Stephen by what mental process
Macaulay had contrived to accumulate such bound
less stores of information, and how it was all so
sorted and arranged in his head that it was always
produceable at will. He said that he had first Of
all the power of abstraction, of giving his uHdi-
vided attention to the book and the subject on
which he was occupied; then, as other men read
by syllables or by words he had the faculty, ac-
quired by use, of reading by whole sentences, of
swallowing, as it were, whole paragraphs at once,
and thus he infinitely abbreviated the mere me-
chanical part of study.-Memoirs Of GreriUe.

Told Him.

eyes, L had a conversation once
with General Forest said a citizen
of Arkansaw i'll answer to a question
asked by a friend. ssI had just
joined the army, and knew nothing
of the right fashions of war. One
night, after we had travelled all day,
we stopped in the woods and were told
that we would remain there until.
morning. We were all wondering
where we were going. I did not
think it was right to keep us in the
dark, and 1 made a remark to that
effect.
"sIyhy don't you go and ask For
rest?' some n remarked.
4tI am not acquainted with him.
I replied.
"sThat makes no difference
{" THAT SOP
".Not a bit. He would be glad to
see you. 1 would ask him, but 1
borrowed a couple of dollars from
him the other day and as L have not
been able to repay him I have been
keeping out of his way
4."I found Forrest sitting under a
