CIIASE, PROPRIETORS PMDM At, Richmond I first saw Mrs. Miurisbn,rind the instant my eye fell upon her I felt that I was looking on a Queen. 4. queen' she was; one of nature's queens:—she looked the char- 1 !actor; her person, earriaprmannens,larigimgc,' would have been in plate In any, the, most polished, Court of Europe. To her Virgil's' immortal words applied - with a force that struck every heholder: " IniezZit Regina." Her per= sonwas large and dignified; yet Moved with leasy grace: her E:te a full oval, with raised features, double chin,fine eyes, and a mouth I dressed in the most winning smiles, It was a Pico that seemed to bid you welcome, and to :ask "What can Ido for your Having once seen her,l felt no more surprised at having heard of her from a boy:-1 could credit what had fraquently been told me that her husb:uid owed touch of the success of his. atiriaistra tion, (so f..r as its popularity was concerned,) to the influence of his wife. Her VoWer over him was great, and 2111 who soughtpre&rmeat, promotion, favors of any kind, addressed them.

A gentleman was at Richmond with .a subscription for an edition of the American Encyclopmdia. The presence of so numerous an assemblage - of intelligent men presented a favorable opportunity for prosecuting such an .enterprise. The work was expensive, and its. publishers would- not' feel warranted to enter into such an undertak hag without 'securing, beforehr.ad, a. respecta ble amount of patronage. The gentle Man was very anxious, and his first application must, of ' coarse, be =ode to .3fr. Madison, that. name alone would be. worth to him more than ahma -1 dyed others. With such a name at the head r of his list ho could present it to any' , a ran; without it, he would be met with its absence as an objectiOn. lie applied, and was refried. Mr. Itfacisen admitted the value of the work, complimented the applicant on . his enterprise' i in undertaking its publication, wished him ev- I ery success, but pleaded his own restricted I circumstances, which would not justify him in incurring the expenses The poor man came Ito me in great dejection. A refusal flom such a source took the wind out of his sails: it would justify all in refusing who sought' an I excuse to do so. " What shall I do?," said be, lin mueb perplexity.

She conciliated their confidence at once, and in a large and mixed company, you would always find a bevy of youthful fa. ecs nroundiher, nll whose pleasure scented to be her On In almost every picture of Mrs. Madison, whether miniature or portrait, she is drawn with a turban; and very properly; for it was, I believe, her constant head: dresi. „However the fashions might change, and however. in other.respects, She conformed- to them, she still retained this l peculiarity. It betamc her well, nor could she, probably, hardlaid it aside for anythiCg that would , have set of her, fee -1 tures to better advantage. So much was the cie accestomcd,to ice it that it' became in fact, a part, of her figure.

Edwani Everett, 'in his brilliant and spirit-stifling speech at the late New York Union Anniversary Festival "in honor of the memory of Washington, thus spoke of the Supreme Court of the United States—the peaceful "adjuster of State controversies: _ I do not knew what others may think on the subject, but for myself, sir, (addressed to ChancelloryWalwortb, who sat by Ur. Ever ett's side) I will say, that if all the labors, the, sacrifices, and the waste of treasure and blood,' from, the fast landing at Jamestewn or Rya:t oad., were to give us noildivi else but the Su preme Court - of the United States—this re vered tribunal for the settlement of interna tional disputes (for siieh'it map be sailed)—l should say the saerifice was .well made.

Webster, " there was but one man at the New Hampshire bar of whom. I was sfraid, and that Was old Barnaby. - There Wire but few men who dared to enter the lists with hint. On one occasion Oamaby was employ ed to defend a suit for piece of land,brought by • a little crabbed, tanning lawy-ir, called Brute. Bruce's case was looked upon as good as lost, when it was ascertained that: Barnaby was retained against him. The suit came on for trial, and Hamby found that Bniee had worked hard, and left no stone unturned to j gain.the victory. The, testimony for the plain. tiff wasNery strong, and unless It could be impeached, the case of the ffefendant was lost. uThe - piinelpal witness ,Introduced- by the plaintiff Wore a redcoat In summing, up for the defence, Old Barnaby commenced a for. ous attack on this witness, pulling Ids testi mony all to pieces, and appealing to the jury if a man who worm a red coat was, under any circumstances, to be believed. "And who is this red• Casted winless?' ex claimed Barnaby, 'but a demendant of our common enemy, who has striven to take from us our liberty, and would not hesitate now to deprive my poor client of his land, by making any sort of a red-coated statement This agreement, made and-concluded this fifth day of September, A.
