go:uE, ITALY, June 24, 1870.—1 n one , of
my first letters from Rome in the winter of
1808, I mentioned that a company bad under
taken to bring again to Rome the old Acqua
Marcia. The work is now almost completed.
Indeed, the water is at the gates of Rome, but
its formal entrance and consecration by the
Pope have to be deferred until the fine fountain
at the Piazza di Termini-is finished. Several
daps have been informally appointed for this
interesting ceremony. The 21st, the day ob-,
served as the Pope's anniversay day, was the
last decided upon. I went up to the Piazza
on that afternoon. but found it had been again
deferred. Next Sunday it is believed that the
fcunfain'will`tie ready for this baptism of the
old Subiaco spring ; it is to have a new name,
Acqua Pia, in honor of the Pope.
The fountain is to be very beautiful. One of
the workmen kindly explained it to us. In the
-centre is a large cireular basin, thirty . inches in
diameter; in the middle of this is to be a single
jet of water whiCh will spring to an elevation
of 20 metres. Around this basin is a margin
of rock work, grass plots, ferns and water
plants, between two and three metres broad,.
and inelining towardsthe level of• the piazza.
On the outside of this margin are 150 jets, the
pipeS of which are only a few inches above the
ground, and will be hidden when the work of
the margin is completed. They are very close
_together, and incline in towards the centre, so
that when the fmintain is playing there will be
one circular sheet of water springing from the
ground, mounting to the centre basin, enclosing
the broad green margin. It will
.look like a
--- gigaritierfernery - Covered with :glass;-.What-a
beautiful sight it will be for the stranger enter
ing Rome for the first time ! The fountain is
directly opposite the railway station,and just, on
the site of part of those celebrated old ruins, the
Baths of Diocletian. It will be one of the
prettiest fountains in Rome. The Pincian, Es
miiiine and Callan hills will now have plenty
of water, also the best spring in Rome, for the
Acqua Marcia was considered, by the old
Romans the best of the fourteen that entered i t
the ancient city.
The 10th of June was the 24th anniversary
of the Pope's coronation. His Holiness haS
now entered the twenty-fifth year—the year of
St. Peter, according to tradition. Only four
popes "'aye lived twenty-four years ;.- if the
present Pope lives out the years.of St. Peter,
be will be the only one who has reached that
long term. Sylvester I.—elected A. D. 312,
died A. D. 335—waS Pope twenty-four years,
eleven months. Adrian 1., elected 771, died
705; Pius VI., .elected 1774, died 1799, held
the Pontificate twenty-four years, eleven
months. Pius VII, elected • 4799, died 1823;
—T-he--Osk•rrot-ore Bonamo of the 17th gave a
short resvlni of dates in the life of the present
Pope which may be interesting to know :
Pius-IX. was born May 13, 1792. He be
lonc'ed to the noble family of the Counts Mas-
tai-Ferreti of Sinigaglia, on the Adriati6 coast.
He was dedicated to the church in youth by a
very pious mother, but ill-health prevented him
from becoming a priest as early as he wished.
He was first Cata , ll of St. Maria in Via Lata,
the church on the Corso next to the Palazzo
Doria. In this church are the Buonaparle
tombs of Cardinal Buonaparte's family. Af
terwards Piusl X. was appointed President of
the Apostolical Hospital of San Michele a Itipa
—for the Pope, from the moment of entering
the priesthood, devoted himself to charital,le
works. Leo XII. made him Archbishop of
Spoleto, May 21, >27. December 17,
Gregory XVI. transferred hint to the episco
pacy of Imola. December 14, IS-10, he was
created Cardinal by Gregory XVI. Six years
after, June 10, 1 tA 0, he was elected Pope.
On the 10th of this June the Cardinals
waited on His Holiness to offer him the usual
congratulations. It was a very affecting scene,
I have been told. The Pope and many of the
Sacred College wept. They are mostly old
men—a few of them `are young, such as Car
dinals Buonaparte andSchwartzenberg—but the
majority are very aged. The Pope no doubt
felt badly. The events of the past few weeks
have troubled him greatly. In his reply to the
Cardinals he controlled his feelings, and grew
quite animated. His Holiness said he had
convoked the Council for the good of the
Church, in the hope of finding the Fathers in
spired by ideas of concord and unity ; unfor
tunately the contrary had been the result. One 1
party in the Council wished to draw the Synod
into the commission of theological errors, just
as another party had caused him in the first
years of his pontificate to commit political
errors. "But," said the Pope in conclusion,
"I hope that the-grace of God will sustain me
now as it has supported me formerly."
In his speech Pius IX. gave the Cardinals a
little lecture upon the subject of papal preroga
tives, which, however, was of little service; for
the very next day, the 18th, in the usual con
gregation of .he Council, a perfect bomb-shell
of surprise exploded. Cardinal Guidi, a Do
minican prelate,famous for his profound studies
in the Theology of St. Thomas Aquinas, and
who has all along been supposed to be an in
fallibilist, came out openly in the opposition.
His speech produCed a wonderful ellect ; it was
very eloquent, and so persuasive that at the
close even his opponents congratulated biln.
The Cardinal's declaration of his views is a
great gain to the minority.
It is now disclosed that the Sacred College
_has_always been opposed to the convocation of
a Council. This Council, however, has been a
favorite wish of the Pope during the whole of
his Pontificate. When he at last resolved to
carry it into execution, lie proposed two ques
tions to the. Cardinals: " An. sit nece.?stritoft!"
Is it necessary? "An oporteatl" Is it op
portune ? The' wise old gentlemen replied
No I to. each. They were less enterprising than
His Holiness. The result proves that so far
as the Pope's peace of mind is corarned, they
were right; hoW the matter will result for the
benefit of, the Church remains, to be seen.
May be:theTope . will turn out. right after all;
not in !lie 'cv4y he intended;to be sure, but the
sacred - Ouse of religious liberty may - be made
more firrn•
A very fine bas relief of the Pope in marble
is on its way. to Philadelphia.— It -has been
made by .Miss Foley tor Mr. Rorie, of youi
.city. I believe, it is to be exhibited; if'ei en . ,
:will have a chance - of seeing .a faithful and
- agreeable likeness of the Roman Pontiff. I,
:have orten - mentioned Miss Foley's works In,
my letters ; she is one of . the most conscien
'tiOus and industrious artists in Rome ; her .13M
relief portraits are extremely liked,atind always
gracefully conceived.
- The Continental Gazette, published at Paris,
weekly, has in one of its late numbers a notice
of kiss Mary Cassatt, of West Chester. This
artist has been a pupil of Edonard Frere, at
Paris, for six years, and has been in Rome the
last winter under the direction of Hebert, the
President of the French Academy at Rome.
Miss Cassatt sent a study of a Coutadina to
the French Exposition (the Salon), this season,
which received a most remarkable, but well
merited compliment. It was not only ac
cepted, but placed " upon the line," an advan
tage never accorded but to works of superior
merit. Miss Cassatt has left Rome, on her way
for America, and expects to begin her profes
sion this autumn—in New York, I believe.
The Continental Gazette also mentions our
Philadelphia sculptor Harnisch, and his statue
of Mr. Mullen. I was at Harnisch's studio the
other day, and found him working diligently
with_ his,owil hands- on- -Mr.„Mullen's -statue ;.--
the pointing is finished and the statue will be
completed in about three months; the head
and face are coming out nicely. Buchanan
lead called in to ,see Harnisch a short time
ago, and spoke to me afterwards in a very
'agreeable mariner of this youii artist. '
..I think I have mentioned the copies of an
English lady, a Mrs. Mackenzie, in the BUL
LETIN ; if I have not I will. They are not
only conscientious but reniarkable, Mrs.
Alackenzie's copies of the " Beatrice
: Cenci"
are especially worthy of notice: This lady
enjoys some especial advantages in copying
this celebrated picture of the Barberini Gallery,
and her copies are always engaged in advance.
L''ealleil l "at -- Mrs. Maeketizie's — robtasTWvia -
Propaganda, lately, to see a very admirable
copy she has finished for Lady Newton, of
England, of Sodoines interesting Madonna
and Child, also belonging to the Barberini
collection. The picture hangs on the north wall
of the second room, and is often overlooked ex
cept by lovers of Sodoma's pictUres. On my
first visit to the Barberini gallery, nearly two
years ago, 1 was very much interested by this
picture. Mrs. Mackenzie has caught its pe
culiar cbaracterigics exa7CTI. y. TE ii — not a - tra
ditional Madonna, nor is the- child according
to the usual form ; the artist evidently wished:
to express some serious thoughts of his own in
regard to the motherhood and infancy of the
Divinity. Mrs. Mackenzie 'has seized on these
feelings most admirably, and also given to the
coloring the peculiar warm and cool treatment
which puzzles one at first sight.
The processions of Corpus - Domini were con
cluded yesterday by the Octave pro- .
cession, in St. Peter's piazza, of the
Chapter of the Vatican BaSilica. Over fifty ,
young. girls. _walked In It. They were the
Aniantate—young girls who received a dot or
dowry this spring from the Brotherhood estab
lished by Cardinal Torrecremata in 1460 at
Rome. The girls who receive-this dowry must
be poor, of good character and legitimate birth,
- Rou.ii. l 3 - and orphans are preferred -first. They
each receive 80 scudi. The girls who walked
in the procession yesterday were dressed in
white,with veils, and a large scarf-shaped piece
of muslin fastened over their mouths. These
robes and scarfs were curiously embroidered
with pins. The nuns who educate them do
this work, anit'is intended as an emblem of
industry and pt tience. The paper or certifi
cate\ of dot was fastened on at their girdles.
One girl had perched on her head a little crown
made of white beads something like in
shape the crown Ilistori wears in the part of
" Queen Elizabeth." This signified that she
had chosen the vocation of a nun for her future
life. She - was a pretty, gentle-looking girl.
The rest had evidently different views.
The weather is delightful—warm in the day,
but the evenings are fresh. Last night was
St. John's Eve. I gave - you a full description
last year of this interesting vigil. A party of
us went up to the Piazza of St. John of
Lateran, at midnight, and did not return until
o'clock in the morning. We bought lavender,
garlic and pinks in the orthodox manner, and
enjoyed the gayety of the people, the bright
slow of flowers,and the merry tinkle of man
dolin music. There was more singing than
dancing, and one man drew a large crowd and
had a full chorus to every verse of his droll .
song in praise of beloved Macaroni.

The l'ilvileges of .POlnud
The Moscow Gazette publishes a curious dia
logue between a Russian official and the peas
ants of a Lithuanian village, which strikingly
illustrates the means employed by the Russian
Government foriutroducing the Russian lan—
guage into Polish churches. The official, says
the Gazette, entered the village with a detach
ment of troops, and summoned the wealthiest
of the peasants to meet him. "I have as
sembled you," he said, "in order to announce
to you a new Imperial favor. L isten !" Ile
then read the ukase of the fith of January last,
which "permits" the Russian language to be
used at divine service in Roman Catholic
churches, and proceeded as follows : "Hitherto
you were fbrbidden to pray in your Russian
mother tongue (sic); but now the Emperor
has graciously permitted you to do this, and it
is no longer necessary for you to learn Polish
prayers and call yourselves Poles. Do you re
joice ?" The peasants (we still quote from the
Russian paper) were silent. "In thqt
case," pursued the official, "You must ask
the Government for permission to hear Russian
sermons in ' , your church." The peasants
looked at each other in confusion and still
remained silent. " If, then, you wish to pray
in Russian," the official went on, "you must
sign this paper" (taking a written document
from his pocket). During this speech most of
the peasants had quietly slunk out of the room.
"Well," said the official, losing patience,
" what do you say?" "Gracious Sir," an
swered‘the few peasants that remained, "this
is not our affair, 4nd we will not 81g . n." " You
rascals," screamed the official, "you yourselves
said the Imperial iikase had made you rejoice."
" lf the priest will preach in Russiap," said the
peasants, " we will listen to bins, but we will
not sign, for (who knows ?) perhaps, if we
sign, that may mean that we renounce the
Catholic religion." Upon this the official,
after making a few snore attempts to persuade
them to sign, proceeded, cursing their obsti
naey, to the next village, where, - says- the
Moscow Gazette, a similar scene awaited him,
- as also in the other villages and towns"-he
visited on his tour.

Reminiscences by wtrot. rairsonx. °
The following " talk " to his class by :Prof.
Parsons, of Reading, was taken down byone
of •his students. R will be found curiously
teresting:
I will begin with the greatest-man Lever
knew, and one to whom the countrrowes a
deeper debt of gratitude than to any.except.
Washington,
I knew him but one winter, when I called
on him was received with perfect kindness, and
was cordially invited to call again. The. tone
of his voice plainly indicated that the invitation
extended was meant as no mere act, of polite.
ness. I did, call again and again, and,each visit
.made me more anxious' to call more'frequently.
~Chief Justice Marshall was born in 1755. He
was the eldest sou of fifteen , children. His
father, Col. Marshall, was a gentleman of excel=
lent family, but no property. Col. Marshall
educated his children himself, as, he was too
poor to send them to school.
Chief Justice Marshall began with poetry.
At the age of twelve he had copied all of
Pope's Essay on Nan. He could repeat, much
of Shakespeare, Dryden, Pope, Campbell and
other standard poets.
He wrote a great deal of poetry himself, but
even at this young age he displayed that great
sagacity which so distinguished him. -He never
published any of his poetry.
At the. age of twenty he entered the army,
where he remained until 1781. He figured in
most of the principal engagements in the South.
While stationed -at Philadelphia he - attended
one course of law lectures. During all this
time he was very poor. When he was return
ing home an innkeeper refused him admission
to his house becausehe did not look respectable.
Soon after returning home, in 1782, he was
elected to tle.Virgiriia Legislature,• where he
was returned as a member until 1702.
In I7BS he succeeded in securing the adop
tion of the Federal Constitution, winch was
violently opposed by Patrick Henry. The
majority in favor of adoption was only ten.
In 1 . 197 he went to Paris.
In 1799 --he was sent to Congress, where
his_ influenee_was_alm ost_boundless.
In 1800 be was appointed and confirmed
Secretary of War. Ile, however, never entered,
upon the duties of his office, for before he
could4losoAliere waka. : vaeancy in ,the,office,of
Secretary of State, and -- he had this, position
tendered him. Be did not hold this office long,
for in 1502 he was appointed first Chief Justice
of the - United States. When this was tendered
to him by President Adams he positively re
fused it, and urged the claims of other gentle
men whom he thought more qualified. Finally,
however, his name was sent to the Senate and
he was unanimously confirmed. He knew very
little "book law" when he was appointed. Ile
had attended but one course of law lectures
and had practiced but three years. This was
the_great_reason, wlien_he_urged so strongly
the appointment of others. It is said of Mar
shall that he never held an office that was not
almost forced Upon him.
Soon after be was admitted Le practice lie
married. He was still very poor. He said he
(lid pay the preacher for marrying him, and
that he had one guinea left. Of course he had
to work very bard in his profession. It is prob
ably more to his early poverty than to
anything else that he owed those habits of in
domitable energy, which„were-so characteristic
of him. He was iforty4li'lyears of age when
he was appointed. He immediately com
menced to pursue a systematic course of the
study of the law. He never became faniiliar
with the books. In all the ranks of legal 'liters
-ture-there are-no books where there is so little
authority cited as those containing his deci
sions. When a case was argued, and it was
for the Judges to decide it, after thinking
for sometime, he would write -down his-deci
sion, and, handing it to Judge Story,. say:
"There, Story; that is the law of this case;
now go and find the authorities ;" aud, proba
bly, there was no one more able to do - this than,
Story.
Story once said : "When I wish to reach a
point in the law,
1 have to grope timidly from
headland to headland, and feel satisfied if I at
last remotely reach it." But Marshall, in an
adventuresome and bold manner, puts right
out to sea, and without difficulty approaches it.
One of the earliest of the great cases which
have immortalized the name of Marshall is the
case of Marhury vs. Madison, 1 Cranch 137.
In au able opinion he laid down the true prin
ciples which underlie the foundation of our
Government. He draws a sharp line between
the powers of the different departments. For
this he had been abundantly preparing himself
in the Virginia Legislature, when the Consti
tution was before that body for adoption.
I have spoken of Marshall as an able jurist.
I will now speak of him as a man. He was
remarkable and peculiar in his old age, when
I knew him. He cared nothing for fashions.
He bad never changed the cut of his dress.
His outside coat was peculiarly long and in
the skirts had two large pockets; frequently he
could be seen walking up Pennsylvania avenue
with a law book in each pocket, or his pocket
filled with legal documents to overflowing.
His peculiar characteristic was the carrying
of a long green umbrella, which was his con
stant companion, not only when it was raining,
but stuck under his an when not a cloud was
t$
A kinder man never lived. Ile was a
model for the judiciary of our country. Be
was perfectly courteous in his manner, never
speaking unkindly to any one. , But still he
was a man with whom no liberties could be
taken. He was peculiar, even in his dignity.
Ile had one peculiarity which one could not
fail to observe; he would look long and in
tensely without winking. Before the age of
the two-hour rules it often happened that some
boring lawyer would come before the Court
and speak for hours. When Mar Shall saw
such a one, that cold, gray eye would be fixed
upon him, and he would wilt beneath that
gaze. Ile never loved to look very largely into
authorities. On one occasion S— dined with
the Judges of the Supreme Court at Marshall's
house. A servant entered when they were
seated at the table. He brought a basket of
books, and handed a note to Marshall. The
note was from Benton,
who bad argued a case
before him. Marshall read the note to the
company somewhat as follows: "Mr. Mar
s/ion : I send you such of the authorities as I
now have, and will send you others soon."
Marshall looked up and saw the basket, and
exclaimed : " Good Lord, deliver us !"
In Washington in those days it was a very
fashionable amusement to pitch quoits. Fre
quently would Miu•shall and other members of
the Court, after their labors were over, be seen
out on the green, with their coats off, pitching
quoits. My first and last impression were that
he was a great and good man, and it was the
happiest, moment in his life when he could'
make others happy. His smile, his tone, his.
eye, all conspired to bring about this result.
JOHN RANDOLPH OF ROANOKE
was a very difibrent man from )farshall,
knew him well. His nephew Was my cla&stnate
and chum. 'His name was Theodoric Tendor
Randolph. When I came to Washington Ran
dolph came to see me, having probably heard
his nephew speak of me.
RandOlph was very tall and slim, and of a
sallow complexion. He stooped somewhat.
When he walked he made very long strides,
keeping his feet parallel; as if some one was in
his way, and such person had better get out of
it. ' His favorite gesture was to reach out a
very long arm, with a very long finger on tbe
end of it, and point. it directly at a persona
His voice had: a peculiar shrillness. Reallyi- .
there is nothing to describe it. It was high,

and, when be chose to Make . it so, soft and
Street. He did _not always speak--in-sweet
tones, for• when he bad .occasion
he' spake as . " with. a trumpet
with a silvery voice." He prided himself
upon his excellent English, for this he made
the object•Of.his study. He bad a splendid
English library, and it was his pleasure to study
words and phrases, and phraseology. He used
to say he had studied the Bible more than any
'Other book—would that be had studied it to
moreltdvaitage He did so for its exquisite
Sakon English -- ; A phonographer • might have
published his words as they fell from his lips,so
finely turned were his periods ' ' and well chosen
were his words. He had not much imagina
tion, or much eloquence resting upon imagina
tion. He bad a very great power of reasoning,
and he had a power of sarcasm ,which was
blighting. Some one said to. Benton, •" lie
must have been among you like a comet fright
ening the nations, shaking pestilenee,and war."
"No ! " said - Bolton,"liea; was planetary
plague, shooting down agony and fear upon
the members."
During the winter when I was with him in
Washington, an old man and a member of the
House -of Repiesentatives died. Ile was a
special friend of Randolph. Quite a young
man was chosen in his place. He came on to
Washington determined to win hiS spurs. So
not long aftei he had taken his seat, he in his
debate made a fierce attack upon Randolph.
Every one was filled with astonishment. When
be got through Randolph did not get up to re
ply, but kept his seat during the whole of the
debate. SeVeralllays passed and another topic
came pp, Randolph made t very..eamest,ellort
in behalf of the side - he favored: - As he closed
his speech he said : "I would not, Mr. Speaker,
haVe returned to press this matter with so
much earnestness, had not my views possessed
the sanction and concurrence of my late de
parted friend, whose seat, I lament, is now un
happily vacant." At these words he pointed
his long arm and the long finger at the young
member who attacked him several days before,:
The House roared with applause.
On another occasion, a regular Down Easter
had been elected, and came down to .Washing
ton several days before the meeting of COR
gressi and bad gone into the adjoining States.
When-Congress- met he made—himselery
familiar with his-brother Congressmen, and did
not hesitate to •appreach and speak to any of
them. He 'came up to Randolph and said,
"Rve.just r been,to;Vir,gMia_and pa.ssed,bTyour
house." - be *glad,'" Said `Randolph ; "
when you are in Virginia, or wheresoever I
have a house—that you would always pass by
it."
Some one asked "Is he an aristocrat or a
Jacobin?" "No," replied another, "he is neither;
he is an islanaelite." Every one's hand.was
against him or would be, were it not for fear
of him, and his hand was against every one.
There is no doubt but that he was de
sbended from Pocahontas. lie was most
proud of this. No stranger could be in his
company_ one-hour_ancLzernain_ignorant_o
He was sure to bring it in conversation some
way.. He felt that old Powhatan was the
lord of all, Virginia, and when he died he left
his regal: righLs to bis (laughter, anff When slie
died they descended to him, and that lie was .
king of the whole land,_
,There was a "screw
loose" somewhere in his mental composition.
So long ago as when the first steamboat was
put upon the Hudson, there was not business
enough to keep it employed , every day, so fre
quently it would take _exeursiotriparties up the
river. On one occasion quite a large party
were on board, among them Randolph
and a Mr. Schuyler, who was a very modest,
shy man, respected by all. While the boat was
going on its way, Randolph started up, went a
few paces from a party' of ladies and shouted
out, "Mr. Schuyler' Mr. Schuyler! will
you do me the favor to come here !" Mr.
Schuyler left the party and approached him.
Mr. Schuyler,' lOok here"—placing his hand
on his ear—" what do you see ?" "Nothing,"
replied Schuyler. " Look at that ear—what
do you see?" "Simply an ear." Don't
y Mt_ see ... _Po caliontas_there_r-...-1 n -order- for
Schuyler to get away he finally said, " I think
Ido see a little of it." Mr. Schuyler related
this to larsons. It is believed that the abu
riginal descendants of the country left a peculiar
mark open the lobe of the ear, which always
marked such persons. He made a visit to
England and behaved quite strangely while
there. The English were - at loss to account for
his eccentricities. They ascribed them to
three things—first, that he drank upon the sly,
or was all the time tipsy; or that he was insane;
thirdly, that it was due to American peculi
arities. ( nir narrator was told this by an En
glishman, when he remarked lie preferred nut
to have him think it the latter of the three.
Pocahontas married Rolfe—which is the same
word as Randolph. Randolph's grandfather
had a perfect right of Rolle's if he chose it.
While in London he saw fit to dress in the
Randolph clan. He carried sword, pistols and
dirk ; had his leg bare to the knee, just like an
old Scot. Once at a theatre two young men,
from his strange dress and other cause ' smiled
at him. lie turned to them and said: "Let
him who smiles at tartan beware of the dirk,"
at the same time brandishinr( '' his dirk.
The Washington officials became very tired
of him. They feared him, and in order to get
rid of him, he was appointed Minister. Plenipo
-tentiary tellusSia. He_reftlSed to accept tuilesS
permission was given him to spend some time
in Italy for his health. This was granted, as
would anything to have got rid of him. He
went to Italy, stayed some time there—went
to Russia and remained only one month; then
went to England and made quite a long stay
before returning home.
The reason why he left Russia was this :
While he was there, and before he bad been
presented 'to the Emperor, some one under
took to teach him the presentation etiquette of
.that Court. It was very simple. The Minis
ter was to enter the door and bow, at
the middle Of the room hoW again, ap
proach the Emperor and bow, and then the
Emperor would meet him and enter into
conversation. He was indignant at the idea of
any one attempting to teach him, and said,
"Don't you think 1 know how without you
showing me?" The day for his presentation ap
proached. He entered the room and bowed
very low—came to the middle of the room,
stopped, and again bowed—be then came
nearer, took oil onegauntlet and threw it on
one side of the Emperor and then the other on
the other side of the Emperor—then he pitched
his hat Off iii front, threw off his mantlet—
threw off his sword and fell on his knees. The
Emperor was perfectly astonished, but being a
well-educated man knew how to act under
such circumstances. So he approached, lifted
him up and conversed with him. His reception
did not come up to his ideas, so, being dis
gusted with Russia, he left in a month.
He had an unbounded admiration of Mar
shall, who was the only man who could at all
control him: When Marshall was 74 he was
in the Convention, and an attack was made
upon the Judiciary. He made his greatest

During the dinner he called out to our narrator
in a loud voice,:.. ".Mr. P—! Mr. 1 , —!"
" Sir !" Mr. p— replied. " Was it ignorance

or what was it,
that led them to put Norfolk south of Suf

In England, Norfolk is where the north folk
live, and Sullia where the south folk live.
Mr. P. did not know it at that time. When he

way our narrator became acquainted with
Pinckney was this: While he was Minister
'to England. he went tbere.
ter of introduction to him and lost
but little time
.after_ bis_ arrival ._bi._.present,
log it: After he had returned to - Washington,
our narrator sought, him in accordance with his
invitation. He was the greatest lawyer I ever
knew, says our narrator. Ile had an excellent
memory. It was naturally weak, but he had
systematized his knowledge—linked it together
so that one part-would support the , other,
Ile began life a poor boy at Ila.vre de Grace.
-He went, into a lawyer's (Alice to sweep his
item. Ile would spend his spare time in
looking into the books. lie cultivated quite
fondness for legal subjects. Friends let him
have the money, and he studied.law. He was
at once very successful. He had'an immense
_command-cflanguage and-of authorities,-----He
had great sagacity in resorting to just what he
wanted. De never used a superfluous citation,
but if there was in all the range of legal liters
ture.anythingher wished-Co./Ise in his .argument,.
he had it It - waS a - diSputed poltir Who - was
the stronger in logic, he or Webster. In rhe
toric he was far ahead. He had all of Choate's
elegance of language, but a great deal more ele
gance of delivery.
As a legal orator he had a mysterious power,
now freqUently called magnetism. Ile had an
attractive manlier of delivery, securing and
holding the attention of "his hearers until lie
brought to bear' the power of subduing their
minds. Webster opposed hint in his last cast:—
a patent question, involving something about
a nit_ of_a_cotton,loam—There could-be—no
drier subject in
,all the range of the law. Ills
argument covered two whole days. There was
no time diming the whole of it when the Court,
'Raise and all the ways around it was not
crowded full of the elite of Washington. Ile
bad a peculiar charth of gesture which attracted
the -attention of everyone; -Ile would not
confine hiMself to one l,pot, but in the - course
of his argument he would move about before
the Court. Let him talk upon what subject he
would—you could not help listening, and liStem
ina, being convinced. As a man, he was perfect
ly kind and courteous toward all, but he had one.
weakness which swallowed up all the rest. He'
was the vainest person alive. He was vain of
his vanity. While I was in Russia, 1 and
another attache were sitting in his parlor, wait
ing for him to come to dinner. He came in,
after a long while, black and dirty as any man.
Without saying a word be walked up to the
sofa, joked off his hat, threw it and his sword
down. At last Mrs. Pinckney returned, and
asked, " - What is the matter?" "Matter' 1
Lave been insulted, Madam ! That is what's the
_ niatter.'2, At-this. ourriarratorsays,,my_sword
am! that of my friend, as if by magic, leaped
from their scabbards, to avenge the insult. I
ventured to ask " How !" Turning to me he
said : " sir ! Is not a roan of iny name, my
position, my country, insulted when he is to get
up at 5 o'clock to pay homage to a little girl
(a Russian Princess) ?." I ventured to suggest
that we were invited at 11. "Can a gentle
man dress in less than three hours:"'
He used to bathe every day, and after
bat Ling lie would throw a thin gauze over
himself and have two body servants throw fine
salt at him. Ile had heard, he said, "salt would
preserve the skin." It was true that his com
plexion was line, so much so that tlfbre was a
rumor spread that he painted. This was not
true, for our narrator has time and again seen
him plunge his head into a basin and give his
face such a rubbing that no paint in the world
could remain on it. lie paraded his efforts in
making this show. Ho liked to bear such
rumors of himself. He was 5-i when in St.
Petersburg and tiO when in Washington, though
lie looked like :10 when he went into company.
lie was not, very fond of society, and would not
remain longer than ten o'clock at a party
oftentimes. When he came out he would say,
" Let us go home and have a chat," which
our narrator was most willing to do.
When lie got there he would begin
to unmake himself. Ile was laced in
every direction. lle would wear the fashion
able cravat of that day, which was an immense
piece of silk, about a yard and a halt' square.
It was foldedAiagonally, corners turned in,
and that filled with a long piece of padding, or,
as it was commonly called, pudding, which was
made for that purpose. It was then folded and
drawn tightly around the neck, his more than
ordinarily so. 'his whole dress was faultless
and beautiful, as well as most fashionable. The
only thing that troubled him was his thin hair,
t bough he was not bald. After he had all his
tight clothes off would.' fall back
into his chair and tell his servant to bring
him a glass of "peach drink," which was no
other than most excellent punch; made with
old peach brandy. He would torn to our nar
rator and say : "Mr. P—, will you have a
glass of peach drink " Yes, I think I will."
There we would sit and talk until very late.
On one occasion 1 told him I would like
very much to hear him in the Senate, and I
would be glad if he would let me know when
he was going to speak upon any question. He
replied : do not know that I will have much
to say this term. I do not knoW of any topic
which will come before the Senate upon which
1. will be likely to speak, unless the Senate gets
into a confused, chaotic state, and wit need
me to set them right." Our narrator once
told Webster of this, who did not like him.
Ile said : "It was all exactly so, only he was a
great fool to say it."
After a night's hard study he Would come into
court, and in discussing a question, would in
the course of his argument say : "I think'
your honors will find an authority for—that—
in—the first of East, about 604—yes—I should
say about 604—and on the right hand side."
While he knew it, haVing' , just examined
All this' Was done for 'abet, order to ,make
the poptilaCe think he knew not 'only the law,
but knew the location-oo the page.
It was generally supposed that. he died from
over-exertion in case in whichlie was op
'pdsed by Webster, though krioWing his habits
of life as I did, I do . nOt'ailiik that was- so. I
'sat up with him late curing the night before
his attack, and had promised him " Cooper's
Spy," which had justcome. out, and which he
was anxious to see. , .The night of , hisattaek I
took it to him, remained late, and loft him

It was true be 'was attacked the day after
Webster's speech, but I should say - his lacing
contributed much to his death. -
Although he was the greatest lawyer of. his
age, his name is sarcely known. Such is the
evanescence of legal fame. A lawyer who

lawyer is only written as in running water.

was forty years old when he came to Boston
from New llanipshire. I was at that time
twenty-tbree. .Just about this time the Spanish
claims came up. But I 'mug explain them:
Our Merchants claitned twenty millions of
dollars for losses suffered-during the , Napidebo ,
wars. Spain admitted their claim so far as to
let us have the Florithys, and -pay - us also five
millions of dollars besides. This stun of
money was to be divided among the claimants.
Three Conimissioners were to be appointed,
before whom the _claimants were to be heard.
Our narrator was employed by the Boston - •
merchants-- to-- look-after- tbeir-elaims-,--whielt -

whole sum. They desired Webster to be
with him, and 'they approached lim

he. " I e told me to tell you that he wishes it

His will is a phenomenon. It is drawn up
in a masterly manner, and it is just Such a

Of his greatness there cannot be the slightest
doubt ; but it was the greatness of power and
not of learning. He would never study a ease
unless it interested him. He was not a sys
tematic, thoroughly read man. He could read
a book rapidly and know more of it than Most
persons who studied it. To use Coleridge's
phrase, " Ile could read it with his thumb and
forefinger."
Ile fell into a great paSsion for quoting Latin.
sentences in his speeches. Ile did this in
imi
tat ion of the members of the EirgliSh Parlia
ment,who never consider a speech finished un
less they put a Latin phrase into it.
He knew very little about Latin. When we

stage coaches. I put a copy of Horace into my
valise to while away the hour as we journeyed.

what it was. I told him. He said, "Ah! that
is just the proper book to brine ; let me see it.".
I handed it to him, and he could translate no
four consecutive lines in it.
I'Mf. Felton used to supply him with, all of
his Greek quotations:

some follies also . . He only serves to illustrate
the Greek maxims, wbich 1 will not give, for
two reasons . : First, You might not be able to
translate it ; and Second, I would not be able
to render it in Gt eek ; so I will give cyou the
translation ; "There never was yet a very great
man without some Very great folly annexed to
him."
This is true of all the men I have ever
known, except Chief Justice Marshall, and I
will Close with him as I began, saying; "he was
one of the greatest' and kindest men who ever

Prince Leopold's candidature had ended, but
