TOE CREAYI OF THE NEW BOOKS: Fronde's &eel Mint of the Extentton of Mary Queen of Scots. We are indebted to the February number o Scribner & Co.'s interesting Magazine, .lioto's pt, Home, for selections; from atiyanee sheets,' out of Fronde's new pages. In the following, the vehement historian finishes, consigently to the last, his vlndietive portrait of Mary Stu art, with her deatipseene: 70c1CCUTIQN OF /41Ant QUEEN OF scoTs. She laid' her crucifik on , her chair. The chief executioner took it as a perquisite, but was ordered instantly to lay it down. The lawn veil vf , ali lifted carefully Off, - not to dis -turb• the--hair, and-was, bung upon the rail.. The bliek robe wal next reMoved. Below it was a petticoat of crimson velvet: The .black jacket followed, and under the, jacket .was a to,OdY let crimson satin. One of her ladies banded her a pair of crimson sleeves, with which she hastily covered her arms • and thus she stood on the black scaffold with the black figures all around her, blood-red fiom head to Her reasons for .adopting so extraordinary a - costume must be left to conjecture. it is only certain that it must have been carefully studied, and that the pictorial effect must have been appalling. The women, whose firmness had hitherto borne the trial, began now to give way, 'Spas modic sobs bursting from them which they could not check. "Ne criez vous, " she said, "j'ay promis pour vous." Struggling braVely, they crossed their breasts again and again, she crossing them in turn and bidding them pray for her. Then she knelt on the cushion. Barbara Mowbray bound her eves with a handkerchief. "Adieu," she said, smiling for the last time and • waving her hand to them, "Adieu, au revoir." They stepped back froM off the scaffold and left her alone. On her knees she repeated the Psalm, In te,, Domino, coulido, "In thee, 0 Lord, have 7 put my trust." Her shoulders be ing exposed, two scars became visible, one on tither side, and the Earls being now :a little behind her, Kent pointed to them With his white wand and looked inquiringly at his ;companion. Shrewsbury whispered that they Were the remains of two 4liscesses froM which She had suffered . while living With him at Sher- When the psalm Was finished she felt for the block, and laying down her head muttered : manus, Domino tuns,commendo auimaui imm a?' The hard woo seemed to hurt her, for she placed her hands under her neck.' The executioners gently removed them, lest they should deaden the blow., and then one of them holding her slightly, the other raised the axe 'and struck. The scene had been too trying even for the practised headsman of the Tower. Ms arm wandered. 'The blow fell on the knot of the handkerchief, and scarcely broke' the skin. :She 'neither spoke' nor moved. Ile struck again, this time effectively. The head bung by a shred of skin, whiCh he divided without withdrawing the . axe ; and at ..once. a :metamorphosis was witnessed, strange. as was ever wrought by wand 4f fabled en chanter. . The coif fell'Off and the false plaits. The labored illusion vanished. The lady who had'knelt before the block was in the maturity of grace and loveliness. The executioner, when Ile raised the head, as usual, to show it to the crowd, exposed the withered features of a grizzled, wrinkled old woman. "So perish all enemies of the Queen," said the Dean of Peterborough. A loud Amen rose over the hall. "Such end," said the Earl of. Kent, rising'and standing over the' body, " to the Queen's and the Gospel's enemies." Orders bad been given that everything which she had worn should be immediately destroyed. that no relics should be carried off to work imaginary miracles. Sentinels stood at the . •doors, who allowed no one to pass out without permission; and after , the first pause, the Earls still keeping their places, the body was stripped. It then appeared that a favorite lapdog had followed its mistress' Unperceived, and was concealed under her clothes; when discovered it gaVe a short cry, and seated itself between the head and the neck, from which the blood wag still flowing. It was carried away and carefully Wished, and then beads, paternoster, handkerchief—each particle -of dress which the blood had touched, with the cloth on the block and on the scaffold, was burnt in the hall-fire in the presence of the crowd. The scaffold itself was next removed; a brief account of the execution was drawn up, with which Uenry Talbot, Lord Shrewsbury's son, was sent to London, and then every one was dismissed. Silence settled dOwn on Foth *ingay, and the last scene of the life of Mary :Stuart, in which tragedy 'and melodrama were so strangely intermingled, was over. A spectator, who was one of her warmest .admirers, describes her bearing as infinitely transcending the power of the most accom plished actor to represent. The association of the' stage was, perhaps, unconsciously sug gested by what was in fact, notwithstanding the tremendous reality with which it closed, the most brilliant acting throughout. The plain gray dress would have sufficed, bad she cared only to go ,through with simplicity the part which was assigned her. She intended 'to produce a drainatic sen sation,' and she succeeded. The self-pos session was faultless, the courage splendid. Never did any . human.. creature meet death more bravely ; yet, in the midst of the admira tion and pity which cannot be refused her, it is not to be forgotten that she was leaving the world with a lie upon her lips. She was a bad woman, disguised in the livery of a mar tyr, and if in any sense at all she was suffer ing for her religion, it was . because she had shown herself capable of ' those, detestable crimes which, in the sixteenth century; ap peared to be the proper fruit of it. • The following, a most spirited piece of writing, is Mr. Fronde's final estimate of the CHARACTER OF ELIZABETH Not from any sympathy with the views either of Luther or Calvin, she chose her party at her accession. She found herself compelled against her will to become the patron of heretics and rebels, in whose objects she had no interest, and in whose theology she had no belief. She resented the necessity while she submitted to it, and her vacillations are ex .plained by the reluctance with which each successive step was forced upon her, on a road which she detested. It would have been easy for a Protestant to be decided. It would have, been easy, for a Catholic to be de cided. To Elizabeth the speculations of the so-called divines were but as ropes of sand and sea-slime leading to the moon, and the doc trines for which they were rending each other to pleces : aAream of fools or enthusiasts.- Un fortunately her keenness of insight was not combined with any profound concern for serious things. She saw through the emptiness of the forins in which religion presented itself to the world. She bad none the more any larger or deeper conviction of her own. She was with out the intellectual emotions which give human charatter its consistency and power. One moral quality she possessed in an eminent de gree : she was supremely brave. 'For thirty years she was perpetually a mark for assassina tion; and her spirits were never affected, and she was never frightened into cruelty. She had a proper contempt also for idle luxury and indulgence. She lived simply, worked hard, and ruled her household with rigid economy. But:her vanity was as insatiable as it was eornmonplace. No flattery w as too lawdry ID. find a welcome with ber;and as she hail no repugnance to false words in others, she was equally liberal of them lierself. Her entire nature Wad saturated with artifice. Except when speaking some round untruth, Elizabeth never could be simple., Her letterS and her speeches were as fantastic ashen dress; and her meaning as involved in her policy. She vas unnatural even in her plitYers, and She carried her '; affectations into,the presence' . of the;Ahnighty4 She:: bight. doubt - legitimately whether she ought to assist an Earl of Murray or a Prince of Orange when in arms against their Sovereign; but her scruples extended only to the fulfilment of her promises of sup port; lien she had:berSelf "tenipled theni into insurrection. Obligations of honor were not only - occasionally forgotten by her, but she did not seem to understand what honor meant: Goethe's i'onversations. From ," Ooetbe's Unterhaltungen . mit 01-11 K anzler Friedkich von Muller," just tit Stuttgart,'we get some idea of that great man's Way of talking, wbich, in the Case , of an intimate like Chancellor Muller, would: semis to have shown a strong love .of paradox. He tiald to Mfiller'one'Dccembei' day,'" If I am to speak at all, I must be free to statnall my para doxes;!, and added, rather sadly, "hesides, you will not hear them from memuchlonger." GOETEE'S EXCUSE FOR• T3IE MELLO We are hardly surprised to fmd Goethe de . fending duelling : . g 4 Of what consequence is a human life? A single battle destroys thousands: It is more important that the principle of a point of honor, a certain security against rude acts, should be kept living.'? • FRENCH LITERATURE. In the cOnvemation of the 28th of "March, 1830, he declares that the French have had no " author of the first rank since Voltaire,lluffon ) and Diderot." And a feW days after: " The French cannot bring back the eigh teenth century again, let them do what they will. Where can you meet with Anything to compare with Diderot ? • How clearly his nar ratives were conceived, and how deeply' felt; how heartily, earnestly and charmingly they were told!". • : • • , GERMAN WRITERS-MEGEL. Of Ilegel's philosophy he will hear nothing :. " Von der Hegelsehen Philosophie mag gar nichts wissen." " Klopstock is , onee criticised with great sever ity: " Klopstock had always an affectation of iiuportauce, and was stiff and awkward in Ills poems." 31 . 01ZA-1, i'IEILOSOPHY. Morality (said Gbethe, in the pleasant con, ersation at , Dornburg,) is a perpetual en deavor to reconcile our personal claims with the laws of the invisible realms. Towards the end of . the last century, when 'men sought to subject them to the uncertain eakailations of theories of pleasure alone, morals had grown slack and slavish. It was Kant who first com prehended them in their intellectual impor tance ; and even if he has defined them tnineceSsary . " severity in the categorical imperative," his is the undying merit of having brought us out of the feebleness in which we were sunk. * * The popular philosophy has always been repugnant to me. I could on this account more easily agree with Kant, who destroyed it. But I have never meddled rnuch with his Kritik der reinen Vernunft.' , • *. In Cousin there is nothing absolutely in opposition to my views, but he does not understand that while there can be eclectic philosophers there cannot be an eclectic philosophy. OOETIIE'S PROVERBIAL PIEILOSOPIIV We will close with .some desultory senti ments arbitrarily Put together from different eonsei sallow: I remained true to mySelf and lived in my own way (he says of the old days among the circle of his famous literary companions) ; so I have always been, and sol will remain as long as I live ; and beyond this In the stars, I trust; I have selected some already, where I intend to carry on my pranks. * 'Character does not take' the place of knowledge, but it strengthens it. The • absoz luteness of my character has always come Well' to my assistance in all the affairs and complications of life • I could keep silenbe for months, , and endure like a dog, but hold my object fast; and if then I could go forward to its fulfilment, - I pressed with all my strength directly toward the goal, and let what would happen at the right or left. But how often I have been calumniated Most frequently when Ink acts were noblest. Yet the clamor of men did not trouble me at all. I would rather hang myself than be eternally de nying, eternally in opposition, always lying in wait for the faults and weaknesses of a com panion, a neighbor. * " One must not see old friends again; one does not come into SyMpathy, with them again; each has learned a new language. Ile ,who is in earnest with his self-culture will slum this; the discord that must occur can only act troub lingly upon us, and it dims the pure picture of former friendship, * • If ono played no mad pranks 111 . youth, and if one (lid not carry away a back well beaten, where' would one find material for thought in age? * * A man should read a book and allow it to make its impression upon him—give himself up to this iMPression then he will form a right judgment of its value. . Prof. Faraday. From Dr. Bence Jones's "Life and Letters of Faraday" (Loogmans & Co., London, .1,8701 we make an extract or two. The folloWiug, from a letter written• when the philosopher was a young man, has a beautiful old-time sententiousness : FARADAY ON FRIENDSHIP According to what I have said, a few lines above, I would define a friend, a true friend, to be " one who will serve his companion next to his God ;" nor will I admit that an immoral person can fill completely the character of a true friend. Having this idea of friendship, it was natural for me to make a self-inquiry, whether I could fill the character, but I am not satisfied with my own conchisions on that point ; I fear 1 cannot. True friendship I con sider as one of the sublimest feelings that the human mind is capable of, and requires a mind of almost infinite strength, and at the same time of complete self-knowledge. Such being the case, and knowing my own deficiency in those points, I must admire it, but fear I cannot attain. it. The above is my opinion of true friendship, a paSsion or feeling I have never - personally -met With, and.a- subject -that- -has been understood by very few that I have dis cussed it with. Amongst my companions lam conscious of only one who thinks the same of it that I do, but who confehses his inability to fill the character.. Dr. Bence Jones has left Faraday, in his fragments of lectures and other papers, to tell in however broken accents the modest tale of his own victories. Primly correct as any. inn sourn. ea talogue or the lecture list of any me chanics' institute, what we get , host is as the veriest dry bones of a philosophy into which the genius of the discoverer had breathed hitt own warm and sentient spirit: VAEADAY'S LOO-OOOK OP ACIIIEVEMENTS, .1831-1855: Fhe year 1855 closed the series of experi mental researches in electricity.
