    Thomas Carlyle at Edinburgh.
(From the N. Y. World./
The Scotch universities have a practice of
electing annually, by a majority vote of all
- the members, an honorary officer called the
Mord Rector. The office, like that of Chan
cellor in the great universities of England,
requires no duties either of supervision or
instruction. All that is expected of the Lord
-Rector is,that he will acknowledge the corn
pliment by the delivery of a public address.
The students of Edinburgh selected, this
year, as their Lord ReCtor, Thomas Carlyle;
a choice which might have seemed about as
hopeful as the attempt by the small Ameri
can college to dub Henry Ward Beecher,
.Doctor of Divinity. One would have natu
rally supposed that this great gnarled wri
-ter, who with the strength of the oak
leas all its nodosities, would have contempt,-
- uously declined to accept an empty office
And make a show oration. This huge de
nouncer of shams, whose pet amusement is
to pour forth grotesque scorn against stump
-oratory and all forms of speech that are kin
aired to it, whose favorite inculcation is the
supreme value of Silence—who could llave
, expected that this huge rhinoceros of llama
ture could be tickled by a compliment, and
would consent, to desecrate "the Eternal
Silences" by making a speech of mere form?
But nobody familiar with Carlyle's writings
could ever have doubted that • this colossal
old growler had a heart susceptible of all
Amiable human emotions;and among others
vanity. We have found even his prodigious
talent for scolding amiable, for the grinning
-oddity of its method shows that it is rather
An appeal to admiration for a thing well
.executed, than the, outpouring of a mis
anthropic heart. Malignant contempt o.
men does not solicit their applause by such
a studied mingling of the artistic and the
grotesque. The amiable wish to stand well
with his kind, which has prompted Carlyle
to set quaintly constructed admiration-traps
everywhere in his writings, made it morally
impossible for him to decline thei invitation
of the ingenuous Edinburgh students. Con
sidering what Carlyle has been writing al
his life about the supreme importance or
Doing, and the ineffable silliness of Saying,
be felt compelled to affect reluctance, and to
invent for himself an excuse for accepting
the proffered honor. Although he had
_known, for at least fifty years,
that the
Lord Rectorship required nothing to be
done; that it was a mere form, one of the
-detested Shams or "Simulacrums" he has
been cudgeling, with his Hercules club, all
his life, he pretends, or makes a semblance
-of pretending, in the beginning of his ad
dress, that he thought it an office weighted
with duties. He says: "When this office
- was first proposed to me, some of you know
that I was not very ambitious to accept it at
first. I was taught to believe that there were
-certain more or less important duties which
would lie in my power. Thi§, I confess was
my chief motive in going into it—at least, in
_reconciling the objections I felt for such
things; for if I can do anything to honor
you and my dear old Alma Mater,
why
should I not do so ? [Loud cheers.] Well,
but on practically looking into the matter,
when the office actually came into my
hands, I find it grows more and more un
-certain and abstruse to me whether there is
much real duty that I can do at all."
One needs to be somewhat conversant
with the writings of Carlyle to appreciate
the amiably awkward hypocrisy of this
apology for acceptance. It is a pleasant
satire on the whole body of Carlyle's writ
ings. The great thing he never tires of in
sisting on is Fact as opposed to Shams, Sin
cerity as opposed to Pretence, and here he
affects to have believed, previous to ac
ceptance. that the Lord Rectorship had du
ties, and to have discovered only, since ac
ceptance, that it is very doubtful whether if
has any; justifying his entering on a thing
• whose sole function is Palaver by the
feigned-supposition of Work.
Carlyle felt that it would be a satire on
- - himself to compose an elaborate oration for
such a show occasion. Finding, as he says,
when he began to write, that he was "not
Accustomed to write speeches, and that he
did not get on very well," he "flung that
away," and concluded to trust to the in
spiration of the occasion and speak what
-came uppermost. By more elaborate pre
paration he would have given an abler ad
-dress; but all who feel an interest in the
man will be better suited with it as it is.
We have other materials enough for appre
- -ciating his great capacity as a writer, and it
is interesting to see in what direction his
mind turns, when acting on its impromptu
impulses. There is very little, in the ad
-dress which is not contained in, or easily
-deducible froth, bis writings. He recurs to
his favorite topics—the superiority of Action
to Speech; of Fact to Sham; of Heroes to the
Rabble; and especially of past ages to the
present in all the deeper elements of char -
-acter.
What so great a writer as Carlyle has in
sisted on for a lifetime with vehement per
tinacity, challenges the profound examina
tion of the age he addressed. The man, o
-course, has some meaning; and though his
view may be one-sided, his unremitted pro
tests against the shallowness, the hollow
ness, the superficial babblement and empty
Artficiality of a period which has added
more to our knowledge of external nature
And to the physical conveniences of life
than all the ages which have preceded it,
may be conceived to rest upon some great
,and neglected truth.
So far as we have;been able to satisfy our
selves respecting the truth which underlies
Carlyle's very objurgatory writings, the evil
-of which he complains is the natural effect
of the mental dissipation which attends the
multiplicity of our knowledge. We do not
recollect that Carlyle anywhere gives it this
pedigree; but nothing can be truer than
that endless flitting from object to object,'
- under the stimulus of curiosity or love of va
riety, is the worst possible regimen either
for the intellect or for the heart. There can
be no depth of conviction nor earnest
ness of feeling, nor much strength
of purpose, and consequently no great
ness of character, if the mind is al
lowed to turn vagrant. For developing the
.affections, better two or three steady friends
than a thousand transient acquaintances.
For nurturing the intellect, better
habitual meditations on a few great truths
han a cursory skimming of all the sciences
in the encyclopedia. In this age the facil
ties for locomotion and intercourse,the mul
tiplication of new books, and the rapid dif
fusion of intelligence,are attended with this
-drawback, that they keep the mind so par
petually on the alert in flitting from one
thing to another, that its energies are ex
hausted in the pursuit of seducing novelties,
-and neither it nor the heart grows to the
robustness of the more vigorous elder ages.
We are restless and feverish, but not
•Atrong. A tree that is transplanted twenty
times in a year, though every time into a
soil of miraculous fertility, must needs be
a puny, scrawny thing, while the oak
which is rooted in the scanty earth of a
rock-ribbed hill grows into storm-defying
_robustness.
We will not go atlarge into this topic; we
Will not even touch the question of reme
dies; but this is what we are able to dis
cover of solid ground-work for the habitual
railings of Carlyle against this degenerate
age. In a more appropriate vehicle than a
newspaper, it would be worth extended dis
cussion.
A LARGE procession of the negro popula
tion of Hampton and the surronding country
took place on the 19th, in honor of the pas- sage of the Civil Rights bill. The proces
sion, after moving through the streeta.of
Hampton and Slabtown, proceeded to an
open lot of ground near the former place,
where the stage forthe speakers was erected.
:Speeches were delivered by Majoi-G-eneral
Miles, Brigadier-General . Armstrong, Col.
D. B. White, and others. Everything
: passed off quietly, and in great contrast
%with the riotous demonstrations hi Norfolk.
Churches of West Philadelphia--- " M.
bury" Methodist Episcopal Church.
S Among the early churches of the western
portion of the city, the "Asbury Methodist
Episcopal Church" stands pre-eminent for
the amount of good it has achieved. It was
the first of that particular persuasion esta
blished in that locality, and cias founded as
early as the year 1827, in what was then
called "Chester Circuit," in "Blockley
township," now West Philadelphia. Some,
and indeed.all, of its records are very inter
esting. In the year we have named the
Rev. Jacob Gruber was the preacher in
charge of the "Chester Circuit," assisted by
the Rev. William Cooper, then a very young
man, but giving great promise of the excel
lence he afterwards attained. Under these
gifted ministers the, very first class was
formed, and it met in an old school house
at the corner of Thirty-third and Oak streets,
almost in the rear of the present substantial
edifice. The first members of this class
were John L. Nutt and wife, R. W. Arthur
and wife, and William Mullen and wife,
whose names and memorials are
still green in the recollections of
Asbury's older members. Thus was or
ganized the first Methodist Church in that
part of Philadelphia county. The next
year, 1828, the Rev. Eliphalet Reed and
Rev. Thomas Miller were sent to take pas
toral charge of this new department of the
work; and, the, little church grew up and
became' strong ,under the laborious minis
tration of these faithful men. In the spring
of 1829, this church' was set apart as a sepa
rate charge, and the Rev. John Nicholson,
"of precious memory," was appointed the
pastor. In this year the first church edifice
was built, near the same spot where the
school-house had stood. Hitherto it had
been without a name ; but It was now called
"Asbury," in honor of the first- American
Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
According to the records very many hun
dreds of converts were added to this flock
during the thirty-nine years of its history,
worshiping with no ordinary devotion at
its altars.
The Asbury is looked upon by the faith
ful with eyes of exceeding great veneration,
and deservedly so, for, from its prolific
bosom no less than five additional churches
have sprung into existence. Truly, the
Lord looked down upon the little band of
original founders, and blessed the work of
their hands. The "Haddington," "Heston
ville," "Thirty-eighth Street," "Centen
nial," and "Haverford Street" Methodist
Episcopal Churches, are all the offspring of
the Asbury, all of which are in a highly
flourishing condition, under the supervision
of separate ministers, who are claimed to be
"successful ambassadors of our Lord and.
Saviour Jesus Christ."
The present neat and plain building, in
which the members of this now very large
flock now worship, is still located on the
original lot of ground, on Chestnut . street,
west of the Darby road, near Thirty-third
street, where it is a noticeable object, was
erected in the year 1850, under the super
vision of the Rev. John Ruth, who is now
the chaplain of the Eastern Penitentiary,
who is described in its records, as "a cliris
tian gentleman, and faithful christian
min
ister."
After this church had enjoyed the teach
ings of very many of the most efficient ser
vants of God, it is somewhat remarkable
that it should have just closed a very pros
perous conference, under the ministrations
of the same Rev. William Cooper, now a
Doctor of Divinity, who, as has been seen,
was the youthful colleague of the late Rev.
Jacob Gruber, in the foundation of the
church, and "is now," writes our informant,
the Rev. Francis Pierson, to whom we ac
knowledgeour indebtedness for valuable
notes, "is now the mature and able min
ister of the unsearchable riches of Christ,"
in whose service he has labored for more
than forty years. Truly a faithful servant
to his Master.
-At the same Conference, held in Philadel
phia, the Rev. George Lybrand, a very able
minister, the son of the "lamented Jos. Ly
brand, whose praise is in all the churches."
A beautiful and capacious cemetery sur
rounds the church, in which slumber a
number of the faithful who:have worshiped
within itlwalls—a slumber that knoweth
no awakening until the last trump shall
sound!
"After life's fitful fever they sleep well."
