MONDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1860. | Autographs and. Authors. There is a very common idea that Judges have'little to do but sit in court, hear trials, ■ receive verdicts, and pass sentence. They have t* do all this, and a great 4oal more, — to study all now laws, to look back at old de cisions, to weigh at leisure the arguments of counsel, to balance authority .against autho rity, to declare their, opinions,-,which decide the' question, and, (in this State, and soilio ' others, though never in England,) to put their judgments into writing—whioh is often dono with most inordinate verbosity. Judge Cad i walader’s five hours’ first judgment on “Our American Cousin” casa, to wit. More than | this, in criminal cases, their labor does not , cease whon the sentence is passed. Fre ! quently, they havo to go over the whole cose L again, irom their notes, when a new trial is moved for, or when the Homo Secretary Is ; applied to for mitigation ot punishment or en tire pardon. , _ | Within our own knowledge, lor ho djd not J resign his seat on the judicial bondßS*6lil March, 1884, (just befoio the beginning 'of | Hiraly Term,) ono of the most conscientious i of modem English Judges was Sir John Bay j ley. Bom in 17G3, he first practised as a | Special Pleader, and published his “Sum- I mary of the -Law of Bills of Exchange, j Cash Bills, and in 1789—: a work which has gone into many editions in England, and was republished (lore, but has been greatly superseded by Sir Jolmßylos*' able book on the same subject. In 1790 he was ono of the editors of Eaymond’s Re ports. In 1792, ho was called to the- bar, and “ took the coif,” (;. e. became Sergoant- in 1799. Ho was made ono of. the Justices of the Court of King’s Bench and Knighted, in 1608. Eight years later, ho pub lished the Book of Common Prayer, with Notes.. In 1880, he yielded to the solicitation of Lord Lyndhurßt, (then Chancellor,) and removed, as a puisne Baron of the Ex chequer. At the time he took his seat there, this Court was literally slmhned by the legal profession, for Sir William Alexander, who was Chief Baron, was an old woman. But Sir John Bayley’s reputation en the King’s Bench was so high that suitors and lawyers -trusted in him, and the Exchequer Court speedily was as crowded as the King’s Bench. Bayley retired from the Bench in March, 1884, abd died in October, 1841. nere is a letter from Sir John Bayloy, not dated, addressed to « The BBverend Dr. Cot top, Ofdinary of Newgate.” The Chaplain of the prison of Newgate, in London, is always called “ The Ordinary.” One of-his dnties Is to attend persons capitally convicted, to the last jnopnent—when they ascend the scaffold, and hence, in allusion to the name of the Of-, dinary to whom Sir John Bayley wrote, ctv minals were wont to say, jestingly, that,' at tho worst, they could only <* dance upon "no thing, with their ears stnffed with Cotton.”. We give tho following, whioh has not before been printed, to shpw what consclentions pains Sir J ohn Bayley, an upright as well as a learned judge, took in criminal cases; anil also what fhe JSDglish judges decided, on a point of law, as to what constitutes Burglary: “Fib: Having received a Letter from twoPri sonere in Newgate, is which your Heine is nun tioneij.'T fake tho Liberty of troubling you' upon ’ the Subject, and of inclosing their Letter, and the CusS whioh wee submitted on their Behalf to the ; Consideration of the Judges, Their supposition is) that their Cose wee not oorreoUy staled to- tjjg. Judges, and that the Representation wOsthat-wey had eat thro 1 an outer Shutter to the Premises-,4fe* - wUl.aee, however, by,.the Care whteh I'inotcte,' that between the . Window and the Inner Shutter was a anfiolent entry to constitute the of fense of Burglary, an it was the opinion af the Judgeß that it was. Jf in stating the Case when I intimated that Opinion, X mentioned that the Hand bed been introduced between en outer Shut ter and the Window, I made a Mistake —I tronblo , yop upon the subjeot that the Prisoners may know that tjieiroase pea correotly stated to tho Judges, . and underwent a osroful Consideration upon a true Stato of Pacts, I am, Sir,- jfour’e very reSpeot fully, * J. Bayley.” : Turning from Law to Literature, we drop (amid a confused heap of unarranged auto graphs, which liavo accidentally turned up while looking for some curious letters which we received, between 1836 and 1889, from tho late Robert Southey) upon two documents written by Thomas Do Quineoy. His Wri tings, collected by Jamos T. Fields, liimsclf a poet—who much reminds us of Rogers in purity of thought and grace of expression— form twenty-two volumes, in tho beautiful edition by Ticknor & Fields, and it may fairly be said that, in the department of Belles Let tres, they are'indispensablo to every library, public qr priyate. Their collection and pub lication In this countfy, which tyas permitted to yield a handsome compensation to Do Quineoy, led to tho issuing of an edition in England also. Wo hoar of an intended vo lume of Tho Beautios of De Quineoy, with some notieo of his life, which ought to bo a readable and popular book. A good life of Do Quineoy is very much needed. Only one has yet appoared—lnde pendent of what he has himself communicated In his Autobiographical Sketches—and that, Covering only twenty pages 12m0., was pre/|xe4 to a Boston reprint ot “Klostor heim, or tho Marine,” published jn 1855. There |s a very accurate bibliographical potice of Do Quincey In Allibono’s “Critical Dic tionary ql English literature and of British and American Authorsand, in vol. TI. of “The New American Cyclopaedia” will be found a vory fair biography, taking in tho personal as well as tho literary history of tho man. Al|il}ono and tpo Cyclopaedia are both wrong, however, at the starting pqlnLr-tho date of De Quincey’s birth, which did not tajro place, as they aver, in 1786, but on the August, m 6, as was stated by himself in his published writings, and repeated in the Bio graphical notice already referred to, (which tec take chargo of, with a parent’s care,) pre fixed to “ Klosterheim.” De Quincey’s 4 oa t4 occurred so recently, (in his seventy-fifth yoav,) that there is scarcely time, as yet, to write his Life as it should be written. For, dospito his over plenteonsness ot words, which spreads "the thought—like gold-leaf—over a vast extent, ho was a writer of thoroughly good English, often picturesque and rarely dull, though oc casionally tedious. His American frlond, James T. Fields, who yislted Edinburgh in Juno, has written an ac count of De Quincoy’s last moments, which we take leave to transfer hope, fpom our ex cellent contemporary, tho Boston Transcripts Last Houbsop “ The Ehslisu OrmH Eateii.” —While Be .Quincey was oh hia death-bed, and a few days befofe he died, there came to blip a let ter from an o|d sckool-bplo-.v who hud not aeon him alneo they parted, mere than sixty years bp fore, as poya at the eo|iool-bonao porch. It waa a farewell froip an ol,d roan pho loved hjmin bia ohildbpod, and who o'onld not dfo without tolling him that he paa st|ll remembered us the dear companion of hia youtf-.. Full of affection, thst letter reminded the dying man of the happy days they had spent togotber aa aohool-fellowe, and ex preaaed a wish that he wonld reply to hia old ohild-friend. Do Qoinoey aept a loving measago; hia hand waa too weak to write, and, a few morn*. I Inga afterwards, he waa earried to hia resting-’ plane m the Edinburgh ohuroh-yard. I have learnod a few particulars of the laat daya of *ho “ Opium-eater” from thoao who loved him, and who olosed hia eyea. When they sentfor the kind pbyaiolan who attendod him through hia final illnesa, he received him with that graoiona, winning manner f< r whioh ho waa ao remarkable, | and briofiy expressed tho nature of hia Indlepoei tion. Then ho oonveraed very dearly and elo-1 cubiitly on other topioß, and eeemed oheerfijlly resigned. Duridg the’next following tjtfae or four days ho grew better, and thoßO about him were constantly reminded of passages in-hia 'published writings wherein he had nilißuroi death. Slight and tranaient febril e»**xon», such as are inciden tal to perrons wbA-euve passed tho allotted span of human ljfe^t?" trod J at ,' ntorval ?A “”>Vhende he dates*, was a precinct of the JBtoyat \Palaco Edinburgh, formerly, in habited by the Scottish- Sovereigns, where Mary Stuart saw' Efrzio murdered before her -face, and then silently breathed, a vow of re venge, which, ere long, caused the death of Darnlejv her. husband and instigator of tho assassination of David Rizzio, whose blood is still shown .upon.* the floor of her boudoir, in which ho was-slain. T> this-day a certain limit arodud the Palace of Holyrood is a Sanctuary for Debtors, who, while they keep within its bounds, are free or exe cution for debt. Hither, when Tom Moore was pressod for his balance duo to the British Government, as Registrar of Bermuda, he was advised to Tetreat, instead' of going to Paris, and hither, after the failure of Con stable, the publisher, in 1825, when there was a report that certain bill-discounters wanted to declare Sir Walter Scott a bankrupt, it .was seriously intended, by himself and h{s friends, that he should retire until terms could with these pressing Sfyylocks. To Mr. Tait, for whose magazine he wrote ■hugely, De Quincey, under a strong attack of dtopecuniosity, wrote thus: Miller’S'Lodgings, Holyrood Garaons, ) Wednesday nfght, May 21.

They pay him for it £1,125. It Is to run through nine months, and each number will 1 be published here about a week in advance of its publication in England. John McLenan is at work on the illustrations. The Harpers have also secured, for £6OO, tho early sheets of the Cotnhill Magazine , which Is to oontain a new story by Thackeray.

How ho oame to write the “ Rise and • Fall of the Dutoh Republfo’ he has finely described in a letter written some time aftor the death of .ProEoott: “It seems to me but as yesterday,” he says, “ though it must be now twelve years ago, that I : wa9 talking with our ever-lamented friend St&ok ■ pole about my intention of wriving a history upon asubjeot to which I have since that time heen de voting myself. I had then made already some jgoneral studies in reference to it, without being in the least aware that Prescott had the intention of writing the history of Philip 11. Stackpol© bad beard the fact, and that large preparations had al ready heen made for the work, although 1 Peru* bad not yot been published. I felt, naturally, much disappointed. I was oonsoious of the im mense disadvantage to myself of making my .pearance, probably at tbo same time, before the . public, with a work not at all similar in plan to Philip llbut whioh must, of necessity, traverse aportion of the same ground. My first thought was, inevitably as it were, only of myself, ft iseempd to mo that I bad nothing to do but to aban don at ouoe a cherished dreamt and ptobabiy to renounco authorship; for I had not first made uji my mind to write a history, and then oast about ,te take up a subjeot My subject had taken up me, drawn me on, and absorbed me into itself. It was necessary for me, it seemed, to write the book I had been thinking much of—even if it were des* tinod to fall dead from the press—and I had no inclination or interest to write any other.” The medlo&l students of Hew York, with a promptness and . pluck that should command the admiration of q brayo and enlightened, people, have taken tbe 7first step in the tramp that is about to take plaoe on the part of the Boath, outof tho Union. Last evening about obe hundred and fifty of them, preceded by a band of musio,” (as the Hutchinson family sing it,) consist ing of an ear-piercing fife and drum, paraded down Broadway to the Breokinridge head garter*, and tfiere commenced the work. This was done in a series of spocohea strongly impreg nated with sal nitre and charcoal, and breathing tho true spirit of eloquence. One of the juvene ficept orators suggested that (l It was tfieir flqty to go at pnoe tp the rescue of- their section,” while another, not seeing U exaotly in that light, sug gested that* he would stay bore iuHewYotk, if the hole of them left; he thought they had better all slay and get their education, and go home with diplomas, rather than with muskets.” The latter was the ohaerful Maryland view of the subject, andeeemod to make an impression; for friecon* . down iqto tho following pronanoiamlento : “ tfesotyed t That we consider it oqr duty to re turn to our homes aa soon as any of the Southern States seoede.” * The young men then formed line again, lit their oignr? &Dd pipes, and msrohed uptownward to the glorious aria of “The Qlrl I left behind m®-” The Wide-Awakes aro determined to keep up steam. Lost evening, some two hundred got to gether and resolved that they would attend tho inauguration of Lincoln; for that purpose, they allowed they would all purchase new capes and things, and send a thrill of astonishment through the anatomy of the people at Washington. They aro to go on per steamer. The Beventh Regiment, whioh reoontjy moved into its new armory, the most spacious and sump tuously appointed in America or Eurojo, last eve ning inaugurated an additional feature in its sys tem of drill, viz : a gymnasium, fitted up with all the appliances known to the best institutions of the kind, at heme or abroad, and provided like wise with luxurious bath rooms, dressing-rooms, parlors, ta this sity.

Jjetter lrom Clunq, [Correspondence of Tho Press.] United States Steamer Saginaw. Off river Polho, Gulf of Ptchilee, China, August 1860. Mr. Editor : We k&ve up for the lest throe weeks, as lookers-on at the operations of the allies against the Qhlncte- The alflus have a fleet of over threo hqndred sail anchored near us, and I hardly know the extent of their land forces. X know this much, both tbo Chinese and allies are as thiok as hlqokbirdg. Lord Elgin and Baron Grqs aro hpre, ready to offer the olive tbranoh as soon qs the Chinese get a good flogging. The allios have already taken two forts, but tho grand battlo is yot to oome off, two weeks henoe, when the tides flow, end they o&n get at tho forts at the mouth of the Peiha* where Admiral Hope was repulsed a year ago. The English offioers tell us that the Chinese are well fortified, have plenty of guns, and eaoh fort surrounded by a ditoh twelve foot wide And eight feet deep. When the attack is made I fear the loss on both sides will he dreadful. The strength of tho Chinese forces is not knewn; some say, however, that it is three hundred thpuiand. I do not believe It to bo so groat;-yot, I have soon one ©noampment said to oont&in forty thousand. The troops are prinoip&liy oompoaedof Tartars. The battle will be as groat as either Magenta orSolferino. China is a groat country. There is no romance in her. She 1h great in territory and population, and her produotions are widely differ* enfc from these of Europo or America. The man ners and habits of hor people are anything but pre possessing. Tho whole country resembles one vast elty; and tbo outpouring of the inhabitants re minds mo of ants emerging from thfi sand-hills. The higher olaaaes,are ooqrteous and intelligent; the middtejflaeses of the people are said to be in genious ; but it seems to me there is some great de ficiency whioh will forever prevent this fropi being a great nation. The Chinese Empire ppntains more than one-third of the population of the globe, and they regarfl all otfler pqtiQns as interior. They say they are the central, middlo, or the great kingdom on earth, and that all others are mere satellites, and the inhabitants of othor ooun tries outside barbarians.

This evening a great orowd of about 3.000 of the Congareo Minute Mep turned out and marched down Main street, with a grand display of fire works. Judge Magrath, Connor, Coloock, and Cunning ham addressed the crowd. Judge Magrath said he hoped South Carolina would not be in the van of her sister States. He was not there to prove to them the right to secede. He said she had the right to secede; the people say she has; the legislature says she has; and will say she has the right; and if the Go vernment at Washington should say she has not the right, then let them' prove it by taking the right away 1 • Mr. Oolcook said that although there was such & large orowd present, he wished to see one more, and that was Lincoln, die would take him by the hand, 1 bring bim ’to the platform, tell him to, look upon that orowd, and ask if he ever ex peoted to wisld the soeptro of the President over the heads of that people. “Honest Abe” would answer, with downoast eyes, “ Never 1” .
