the hills until it spreads out into
the Ohio; thence it streches away
a thousand miles, leaving on it's
banks more than a hundred vii
lagos and cities and thousands of
fine farms, and bearing upon it's
bosom half thousand steamboats,
Then, coming the Mississippi, it
stretches away and away, hum
dreds OF miles more till it falls in
to the great tributaries of the
ocean, which, obedient to Him
shall roar till the angel, with one
foot on the sea and one on the

JOHN SINGLETON coPLEY.
An American boy Who Became Lord
Chancellor of England.

Chancellor of England.
what delicious coloring worthy
Of Titan himselfr' exclaimed Ben
jamin West, president of the Royal
academy, on receiving a portrait,
unaccompanied by name or letter,
of a beautiful boy with squirrel in
his hand. All he could say was that
the painter must be an American,
for the wood ON which the canvas
was stretched was American pine,
and the squirrel was such as is found
only in American forests.
Vests powers of deduction were
not at fault. The artist proved to
be John Singleton Copley, a Boston
boy who, without instruction, with
out even, as he himself AYERS. hav-
ing seen decent picture till he left
America had produced a piece of
work that, contrary to all rules and
precedents, was at once given an
honored place in the academy exhi-
bition.
Encouraged by West, Copley set
tied in London. He intended that
his son, who bore the same name,
should also be a painter, but the boy
had other ambition. He would not
be known as the son of "Copley, the
painter. The world should rather
speak of "Copley, the father Of the
lord chancellor. !"
The way TO that eminence Law
through the law, but success tarried.
At last came to the young barrister
a caseof great Importance, relating
to spinning jenny. Finding that
he could not, from a mere descrip-
ton, fully understand the points Of
the case, Copley went to Noting
ham. His client explained the prin-
ciple of the machine till at length,
impatient at his listeners apparent
indifference, he exclaimed:
What is the use of talking to
youi have been trying this half |
hour TO make you understand, and |
you pay me no attention ~
In reply Copley went into the
whole question, showing such
of it in every detail that his
client was astonished. Finally, seat
ing himself at the machine, the at
Iorney turned out an unexception-
able example of bobbin net lace.
