The prosecution laid considerable stress en the fact that Jiulge Wilkinson had engaged lu the ail ray Isslorehe, himself, had been as saulted. Upen Hoeing thu mob attack his bruther and young Murdaugli, Judge Wilk inson went valiantly te their rescue. Mr. Prentiss argued that, with his tun cempan ions overjioworod, Judge Wilkinson was Juslllled in expecting that the whole force of the assailanls would next turn en him : that " he had n right te "prevent, liy anticipating It, violence iiKiu hi own persen ; hu had a right te defend hi friend, nnd it was Ills sacreu inny te protect ins brother's lire."

DUlbT. llAVi: you read ImfcJV JuurnuU It Is a most provoking book ; and nt the same tlme n innsl charming ene. What I cannot under stand iihnut It Is Its popularity.

It cnntaln nothing Hensatlenal, no rovola revola rovela llonsof the "Inner history" of a IiisUh'eaI porled, of ii family, or evon In the erdlnir sense of mi Individual, and that Is what usually makes such "journals" popular. Indeed Ills net In nny xone n memoir, or diary of external events; It tells next te nothing or tlin doings or prominent or of ebsciHii people, nnd throws little new light iiu thn porled during which It was written, from HI1) te IMI. It Is net even a connected narrative or nny thing; unr does It contain anything like a system of philosophy, or theory or nrt. Hut It Is simply a record el tlie cenlllctlng thoughts and feelings, the varying moods and relloctlens, or a man who, nt least until ihe publication or his Journal, lifter hi (loath, was unknown le fame, nnd desorvedly he, ler he nover did anything famous, In ract nover did anything nt all of nny account, either In aclonce, philosophy, nrt, literature, or nuy ether depirtment or life. That Is the provoking part about It for this Journal shows en every page Hint the writer might have Isvome eminent in almost nny spliore he could have chesen. He had nil the oxternnl ndvnntages nnd opportuni ties, nml overy gifl and talent of mind, was an original and most profound thinker, a diligent student, thoroughly qiullued as far an mental power nnd attainments wero con cerned te have beonme n great philosopher, a statesman, nil authority In science, a brilliant artist keen critic, or a most useful nnd do de lightful author.

The tree that refuses te liear H cut down, or ought te be. And yet, when I am charmed with the deep truths 1 llml en nearly overy page or Amicl'x Journal, and delighteil with the gem et literary nrt that are thickly Hcatlerid through It, 1 nm thankful that this nuther at least was net cut down any soenor than he wa.

The ma hogany has n real n value as the apple tree. Ke nt toast Amlel thought vv hen he ndepted thl rule hir himself, and carried It out in 111 Jenrmili "Let the living live; nml you gather together j our thoughts, leave behind you ii legacy et feeling nnd Ideas; you will lie most useVul he." And se It is that n h's friefd M. Scherer wrole: "The man who, during bis lifetime, was ineaiia'iloer giving us any dellts-ratn or conscious work worthy or Id's mvvnrs, hvs new lett us, alter his death, n Isvek which will net dle." Ye, It is "a Isiek which will net die; but nt the mum Hunt I reel like applying te the author hlmseir the werdslie usesel Chateaubriand's "Hene": "Instead of taking a passion for Kene Aniiel, ruture generations will scorn nml weudur nt him ; Instant efu here they will sen in him m pathological case; but the work itselr, like the Sphinx, will endura" We can pity but net respect nor even ro re ro memtsr with admiration, a man who, gllted heveud most men, and thoroughly equipped hir a long and lelty senlce et his fellow men, could consciously und deliberately set lilmseir te doing nothing through his entire liretimn save te record his dally thoughts mul reelings; who could contentedly say or hlinell: "Satisfied, with the jieicer te act, I nover arnve at the will te act" It may have linen ndiseased moral character, but te me itssems mere like an unjustifiable cow ardice, lern man knowingly te shirk, te try le run away from reqeusibilily, te remse te net for Icar of his responsibility ler every action. And thnt Is vvlnt Amlel appears te have done nil tlie time. He continually speaks or" the terrible rmpeinlbillty which weighs upon us all"; and cenfesses: " Uo Ue Uo spensibllity Is my Inv isible nlghUuare." Pinnt.vrs It is net fairle say that Aniiel deliberately choe his life of unproductive ness. At least he did net de It willingly, nor without a (loop sonMief its unworthlness. Ill this a. much as anything thai gives a kind or plaintive, remorseful, melancholy tone te all his relloctlens, n tene that colors Willi a soinbre hue the greater part et tlie lioek. " My friends," he bitterly exclaim, "see what I might have been ; I soe what 1 nm." A .id again: "Te whom nnd le what have 1 been tisemif Will my name survive inn a single day, nml will it ever mean any thing te mivliedy? A life of no ueeeimi!

And 1 suppose thai is overyouo's experience. Hence tlie success and popularity or the lioek. lli'T that still does net answer the Inquiry, Why does it Interest nnd charm ene he? 1 nm net going te attempt an answer myself; but will let the reader lilutstir imsvver It Tell me, ler Instance, why you are charmed by n picce or poetical description like this, Uken ul random from a multitude of similar ones : "St. Martin's summer isstlll lingering, und thu diivs nil beuin in mist Melhing could "le lovelier than the last resebuds, or than the delicate gaulred edges of the straw berrv leaves embroidered Willi hear-frost while ubove thein Aruchiiu's dollcate webs hung swaging in the green branches of the pines, Utile lull rooms for the falries, car peted with powdered M)arIx, nnd kept lu place by a tlieusiiid dewy strands, hanging Irem above like the chains of a lamp, and sup)rting them from Imlew llke tlie anchors et a vessel.

Tlie bulk et it, where the nuther escajsn from his Intro spective self-analysis, Im taken up with literary nml nrt criticism, nml especially with proleiuul philosophical rdloctleus, like tins; "We have tee much barbarian bleed in our veins, mul we lack measure, harmony, and grace.

Most Krench, (lerinan, and even Minn Knglisli authors are touched upon, and all In nmanner that at ence shows in Atnlel nil tlie quallllcntlens of a llterary crltle of the very highest order. Loek, for Instance, at this judgment of Victer Huge, after reading his Ies Mlserables : "The erudition, tlin talent, the brilliancy of execution, shown lu the book are astonish ing, bewildering almost Its faults are te tie found in the enormous length allowed te digressions nnd episedical dissertations, in the exaggeration of nil the combinations nnd all the thntes, and, Dually, In something strained, spasmodic, and violent in the style, which 1 very dlllereut from the style of natural cloqiience or of essential truth.
