Peterson k Brother we luv re. celred the Jannary nnmber of llarprr'n Maga sine, which opens with a poem entitled "The Silent City at Greenwood;" Illustrated -by Mr. Harry Fenn. Mr. Theodore R. Davis, the artist of Uarpcr'i Weekly, 'now with Sheridan in the Indian country, furnishes an illustrated article on "The Buffalo Range." "Paul Da Challla Again" gives some facts and pictures from Da Chaillu's book for young people en titled "Wild Life under- the Equator," re cently published by Messrs. Harper k Bro thers. "South Coast Saunterings in Eng land," Saunter II, gives an interesting ac count of the celebrated Druidio remains Of Stonehenge, on Salisbury Plain. "Learning Common Sense" is short and to the point "My Old Woman and I" Is a poem by Mr. John Brougham, which we quote: We have crossed the bridge o'er the uiil lle of life, My old woman and I, Taking our share in the calm aud the strife, With the travellers passing by And though on our pathway the shadows are rife, There's alight in the western sky. Some losses and crosses, of course, we've had, My old woman and I; .But, bless you I we never found time to be sad, And a very good reason why. We were busy as bees, and we weren't so mad As to stop in our work to cry. On our changeable road as we journeyed along, My old woman and I, The kindly companions we met in the throng Made our lives like a vision lly; And therefore the few that imagined us wrong Scarcely cost ua a single sigh. The weak and the weary we've striven to cheer, My old woman and I; For we eaoh of us thought that our duty while here Was to do as we'd be doDO by, la the hope to exhibit a balance clear When the reckoning day is nigh. J. W. De Forest discourses about "Chival rous and eini-cLivralrou3 Southrons." lie gives thu following description of some promi ntnt traits: VIRILITY. It c-ms t.o me that the central trait of the "chivah'ous Southron" i3 an intense respoot for virility, lie will forgive almost any vice in a man who is manly; he will admire vices which are but exaggerations of the masculine. If you will fight, if you are strong and skil ful enough to kill your antagonist, if you can govern or influence the comuou herd, if you can ride a daugerous horse over a rough country, if you are a good shot or an expert swordbiuan, if you stand by your own opinions untlinchingly, if you do your level best on whitky, if you are a devil of a fellow With women, it, in short, you show vigorous masculine attributes, he will grant you his respect. I doubt whether a man who loaves behind him numerous irregular claimautsto his name is regarded with disfavor at the South. He wiil be condemned theoretically; it may be considered proper to shoot him if be disturbs the peace of respectable families; but he will be looked upon as a nobler representative of his sex than Oulebs. The good young mau, as pure as a young girl, whom one finds in the Abrahamio bosom of Northern Puritaulsm, would not be mada a Grand Lama of in Dixiy. The chivalrous Southron would uuite with the aristocracy of Europe in regarding him as a sort of monster of neutral insipidity. I doubt whether eveu the women of our nieri. dional regions admire that sort of youth. "I shouldn't fancy a hen husbaud," said a livtly Sjuthciu fcirl, alludiug to a mau vithvat Tioes. It may be taken for granted that a pnople which so highly prized virility looks upon man as the lord of creation, an I has tlw old fashioned idoaa as to what is the proper sphere of woman. If the high-toned gmlttmaa coa tlnues to be influential at the South, it will be a long time before the "strong-minded" obtain much of a following there, a very long time before they will establish female s mirage. Next to our supposed passion for putting the negro on an equality with the white, tliera is nothing in Northern life so abhorrent to the j bontherners, of both sexe3, as the movement in favor of woman's lights. "I do think," said an emphatic old planter to me, "that your free-love business, aud woman's votiug, and all that, is just the inise rablest mess that ever was invented. I don't see what, ails you to go for such vile non sense. But then you always were as full of Whimsies as the devil." It would have beeu U3eles3 to tell him that he was binding in one fagot ideas whiaU hai no connection. I did my wisest by him; I left him unanswered. COURTESY. There certainly is more suvity of raauner at the South than at the North. It is delight ful to see two high-toned gentlemen of the eld Virgitia or Caroliuian school gret eaoh other. Such graeiora bows aud insinuating tones I Such mellilluou8 compliments, particular in quiries concerning health and welfare, anima ting conpratulatioDs as to future prospects ! Such Eunuy and, one might almoit say, equa torial blandues 3 1 You teel as if you were in Paradise, hearing Dante address Beatrice ai "gracious lady." The moral thermometer rises to summer heat; your humanities ex pand and bloom under the influence; you are a kindlier and, I think, a better man for the Bight. It is a pity that we have not been bbtter educated in such gentilities, and that we have not the requisite time for the exercise of them. If there were twenty-eight hours In a day the Northerner might possibly be come thns urbane; &a it is, he has barely op portunity to fill his pocket with the necessary greenbacks and his head with the necessary information to get on in the world; he is too much hurried by prau'icalities to make his manners. At the South there has hitherto been a leisurely caste which set the example to all others. But the high-toned gentleman, full of pro vincial prejudices, is not always civil to out side barbarians. lie was not civil to our Con gressmen in the old days when he governed them; he cracked the plantation whip over them as he did over his negroes, ami for the same reasons: they were not ot his caste, they were his natural subordinates, aud they were sometimes fractious. Returning to my own experience with this grand personage, I must state that I have not Always obtained sweetness from him. It inuit Le remembered that to my native infamy as a Yankee I added the turpitude of being a United btates military officer, and the misdemeanor of being a bub-Assistant Commissioner of the Freedmen's Bureau. In the exeroise of these atrocious characteristics it was once my duty to settle a dispute as to the division of a crop between an elderly negro and a South Caro linian of hibtorio name and French descent. The planter's accounts were admirably kept; .tie right was on his side, and I decided in his favor. Throughout the interview I tre.v-1 bim with all possible courtesy for the sakn of the worth of his revolutionary anoeBtor; but, alas I I committed the error of pronouncing his patronymio after the English manner instead of the French. When hU Huguenot patience was exhausted he corrected me: "Sir, my name is ," giving it the Gallic accent. . "I beg pardon," I replied. "We at the North habitually anglicize foreign names. My name is French by origin, but we use the Eng lish pronunolatlon." lie picked up the certificate of settlement on which I had just indorsed my official approval, glanced at my signature, aud said, with a half concealed uneer, ' Oh, I see that you put a De to it I" Conceive my humiliation, thus charged with stealing a French particle I A few days later I had oacasion to approve a labor contract for a lady of another family, but likewise of Hugnonot raoe. Her name I also, anglicized, not in ignorance of the Uallio form, and not with the purpose of glviug of fense, but solely because of Northern custom. Again I was corrected: "Sir, my nme is ." Struck with the repetition of incident, I made the same reply as to the gntlemau: "I bt g pardon; we at the North habitually augli oio the foreign names; my own, etc. eto." The lady picked np the now finished con tract, glanced at the indorsement, and sail, "Oh, 1 see l'e IV'-st. I knew a Mr. De Forest; that is, he did some work for me. lie was a shoemaker 1" Conceive my second humiliation, thns crushed under this degraded De Forest, who was a shoemaker. But before the wnr, before th.i days of rage and ruin, the bigU-toned was not thus peevish; he as, notwithstanding some superciliousness and imperiousnuss, our court liest social figure. I shall never forget the grace and kindness of a man who must, yet be remembered in Charleston as one of its most finished social ornaments.- I was at a supper of the Literary Club; we were standing or sitting around a table which would have pleased Brillat-Sjva-rin; all the others were well-known citizens, reverend and respectable; I was the youngest and the only stranger. I had dropped out of the conversation aud withdrawn a little aside when Colonel John Alston observed me and divined my stranded situation. Hi did not know me; it was the first time that we had ever met; but ha mitantly came towards me and begged leave wait on me. It was not the deed so much . as the manner which was t-o exquisitely ingratiating. There was an rmpressemint in h'.3 ex pression which seemed to say: "Sir, your mere appearance li'ls me with respect and in terest; j on are obvion.;ly worthy of my atten tions." I have eoiii'imes thought that it would be a line tL'L to bo a hr.nJsome young lady; and I felt at that moment as if I wre cne. Well, this hospiwble act towards a per fect stranger, this cour teou ad ramie towards a wall-llowtr, was characteristic of thy man, ami, in general, of hi-- caste. (JENF.V'OBITY. It was not that Yankee gonerosity which sends pundits to convert Hottentots, founds school systems, hospitals, oanitary com missions, and endows oolleges with mil lions. It was the old-fashioned sort, the generosity of the Arab and of the feudal noble, feeding every beggar who came to the dcor, setting bounteous tables . and keeping full wine cellars. It wa3 the pro fustrness not of philauthrophy, but of good fellowship. Even before the war there were single states in the North which gave move to missionary,-educational, aud charitable or ganizations than the entire South. But the Southerner was more thin lavish; he was good-natured and easy in his business transactions; he had such a contempt for small sums that he would not use peauies; he paid loosely at long credits, and was careless in his collections. 1 knew au upright wretch in a Southern town who strictly settled hi debt3 and sternly demanded his credits, and who was consequently very unpopular, ia spite of many virtues and worthy deeds. I knew a jolly fellow who was not much astonished, and not at all angry, when another still jollier fellow borrowed a hundred dollars of him, treated him haudsom-jly out of it, and never repaid him. "Is that what you call generosity?" I asked, with a Vandaho sneer. "Well, I like it batter than stinginess," replied the victim. "He thought he was doing what was handcm; Yin felt a3 if it wore his Otvn mouey. If it had been his own he would have spent it just as fret-Iy. It was just a little rough, though, that he should get all the credit of the bender when it was I who really paid for it." Meum and tuum were a little mixed; people who lived on negroes felt it right to live on each other and to help each other; what a man could borrow or get trusted for wa3 hi3 own until a neighbor askd for it. Happy-go-lucky planters settled their store bills once in seven years, or after they were dead; and the store keeper settled with his Northern furnisher as soon after his notes matured as was conve nient. When the war opened more than half the rice and sea-island estates were mortgaged to the verge of bankruptcy; and the personal debts of Southerners to Northerners were esti mated at eighty-live millions of dollars. The virtue of generosity had been prolonged intj the vice ol ruinous extravagant. IK.-VOK. Kotwithutauding his thcughtliss lavislinejs thero was a high sente of honor in the "chi valrous Southron." He did not mean to de fraud any one. I Lave known an expensive, generous fellow to cut his throat because he could not meet a note which was coming due. I have known another bankrupt to put his wite and children into a buggy and drive with them into the sea, drowning the whole party. I do not assert positively I only give it as my strong impression that such tragedies o( wounded honor were more common in Dixie than in Yankeelsnd. The honor of Southern students is not college-honor as it is understood at the North, aud perhaps in Europe; it comes much nearer to the honor of good citizens, and the honor of the gen tit in au of society. The pupils are not leagued against the teachers for the purpose of passing fraudulent examinations, by the trickeries of stealing the prepared lists of questions, carrying lurtive copies of lessons into the recitation-rooms, mutual posting, aud purchased composite ns. A Professor of the Charleston Medical College assures me that he has never detected such a cheat in thirty years of tuition. A professor of the Univer sity at Columbia1, South Carolina, told a friend of mine that he had known but one such in stance, and that in that case the two crimi nals were forced to It ave by their classmates. The "chlvalrouB Southron" undergraduate, at least while surrounded by his native moral atmosphere, considers himself a gentleman first and a student afterwarda. When one remembers the strength of oollege (sprit dt corps, these facts exhibit an individual self-respect and uprightness which is astonish ing, and which must, I suspect, fill the facul ties of Yale and Harvard with envy. I must explain that my testimony on this point refers only to South Carolina, and I may therefore have drawn too large an inference ia extending myenloglum to all Southern students. It is worth while also to note that in Dixie examina tions are less Hevere than with us, and that a failure in passing them rarely ends in expul sion, i "How can a race of traitors be called honor able?" will be the objection of millions of loyal citizens. It must be remembered, I answer, that the "chivalrous Southron" conceived him self as owing a closer allegiance to his State than to the Union; and that, furthermore, he, like the Roman patrician, like the aristocrat of all time, felt that he owed fealty to. his caste. These questions have now been settled by the highest of earthly courts. If the South rebels again it will be traitorous even in its own eyes. "My Visit to Utopia" is a pleasant little sketch. " A Publio Building" gives a de scription of the Capitol at Washington. "A Christian's Creed" is given in verse Part VIII of the btory of "The New Timothy" ia commenced. "The Bishops of Rome" is an interesting historical sketch, as is "The Mur der of Escovedo." "My Enemy's Daughter" Is a tory in four chapters. "Abbaa P3ha of Egypt" is a readable account of the life of a modern Oriental tyrant. The "Elitor's Easy Chair" has some pleasant gossip about Hawthorre, Breok Farm, Emerson, and other matters; and the "Monthly Record of Current Events" and "The Editor's Drawer" contain items of interest and entertainment. "Abromo Lincoln e UioTnnn! Ilootli." X coiroDondnt of the Nov York World, writing from Naples, gives the following account of a trnyedy performed recently in that uty, of which Abraham Lincoln was the subject: " Home of your readers may remember an account of a theatrical representation which I mentioned having witnessed last summer iu Perugia, the tiagedy of Aick'es i' America no. Here in Kapler we were all tpuiptrd to the small theatre "La Fcuice" by the promise held out by a g'gantlc playbill anoouncius the tragedy of Abromo Linco'n t tftovanni Booth, consisting of a prologue aud a three-act drana the fiibt CDtitUd "The fleroiotu ot a Slave," hnd the three act9 being, first, "The Ambassador and the Victim;" second, "The Triumph, aud the Conspimcj :" third.

It was a perfect atrus plc, a far as eur party was concerned at least, whether teari or IaugUtcr should have the uoper hand.

And wc are never repaid for this our gratuitous counsel. Whether our sleeves be icots or tunueln, our trowirrs flowing like Lord Krakine' or cut down to knickerhociitrsvour hats pancakes or chimney-pots, the Indies make no remarks, utter no remonstrances!
