SWIFT AND CHESTERFIELD.
Two of the must celebrated men of their
time were the famous Dean of St. Patrick
and The all-accomplished gentleman, Lord
Chesterfield. Both of them were the great
est wits of the period at which they lived,
but with this trait in Common, the resem
blance between them ended. Dean Swift,
in his youth, was the cringing and fawning ,
sycophant, hishappiness 'destroyed for weeks
by a cold look from Sir Wm. Temple. As
he waxed in years and strength he became a
cold-hearted egotist - and - overbearing tyrant.
Chesterfield was alivays the bland and affa
ble gentleman. The ruling 'passion with
Swift was vanity.. He destroyed the peace
and happiness of three exceedingly interest
ing women, apparently for no other motive
but to exercise pOwer. As a writer,.proba
bly, he was never equalled in coarse wit.
'vulgar sarcasm, and terrible invectives. His
si'vJe was perspicuous, condensed and vigor
ons`in the extreme. The slightest provoca
tion Wits sufficient to bring doivn his lash
upon the back of the offender , in all its force.
The least mission of homage to his all crav
ing vanitys , or a difference of political opin
ion, even, ware enough fully to arouse his
' ill nature. Ffi . \ WAS famous as a poet, al
though in imagination and refinement of
feeling, the inferior Hottentots were his
equals. He had the neatest disgust for any
thing like sentiment, ind ridiculed and lain
pooped it in every shape. But his strong
reasoning powers, great wit and knowledge,
jojned to a remarkably plain and vulgar
style, which was adapted to the meanest
comprehension, acquired for his, try great
celebrity. But, famous as were is writings
in theii time, with the exception of Gulli
ver's Travels they are but little reactanw.
'Unfortunately tor , the reputation orChes-
terfield, he has left few memorials of h6ge
nius behind him, except his letters to his
son, and his reputation would have been
still better, if these had never come to light.
Although they display great knowledge of
human nature, and a deal of worldly wis
dom, they teach a questionable morality, or
rather an unquestionable immorality.. He
wits distinguished as a Statesman, and was
most always to be found on the liberal aide
of questions: He opposed the American war
with all his power, and was a good prophet
in regard to the consequendes of it.• He had
ability enough as a writer, to be supposed
by many to be the author of the Junius Let. ;
ters. Ireland never was better governed.
than when he was Lord Lieutenant of it.—
He was wholly impervious to all influences
of a gassy or hobgoblin nature, and in this
- -respect in particular, was just the man for
the country. On a certain occasion, when
governor of Ireland, some person rushed
into his presence one morning, out of breath,
saying, "My Lord, they are rising in the
West !"—(intending to convey the idea that
a rebellion had broken i,ut.)
"Are they ?" exclairrieich is lordship, taking .
out his watch, "well, it is time I should
think—it is past 9 o'clock." '
A certain member of the House•of Lords
had •a great aversion to politis, and could
rarely be prevailed upon to vote on any ques
tion. Chesterfield was very anxious upon a
certain occasion to obtain his vote, and being
aware of his- dislike to attend the sitting of
Parliament, resorted to stratagem to procure
•
his attendance there.
It was 'a maxim with Chesterfield that
miry man has some weejr point through
wnleh he is particulatly assailable, and he
had discovered 'that itweakness with
thilgentleman , to beep= a skilful phle
botomist. Knowing his 'atom vulnerable
point of attack, he called upon him on the
,day on which his vote was needed, and.com
plaining of illness, casually remarked that
he thought bleeding might do him good : at
the same time adding, "I hear that you are
a great adept in the use of the lancet—sup
pose you give me the benefit of your skill."
The gentleman, a good deal flattered, soon
had the patriot bleeding for his - country.
Then came the gentleman's , turn to be bled.
"I was anxious to attend Parliament to
day," said Chesterfield, "as a question 'that
I feel a good deal interested in is to he voted
upon, and I should be very glad to have you
vote with me, if it is not asking too great a
favor."
• The gentleman feeling verv,good natured,
after having had an opportunity . to' indulge
in his favorite-pastime, and having received
a delicate compliment for his skill evinced: in
it, readily assented, and voted as Chesterfield
desired. It was often a boast with Chester
field, afterwards, that he had literally bled
for his country. `.He was called a wit among :
lords and a ford among wits, and a multitude
of excellent specimens of his wit are pre
served.

A MAXIM 0!. Afil
• " Labor to keep alive t your breast that
little. spark of celestial fire, onscience," was
one of u series of Maxims wh h Washington
I framed or copied for his own us when a boy.
His rigid adherence to principl his stead
fast discharge of duty, his litter bandon
meat of self, his. unreserved dev ion to
whatever interests were committed his
care, attest the vigilance with that spar '.—
He made it shine before men. lie kind,
it into a flame which Wooled his whole life.
No occasion was so momentous, no circum
stances, so minute, as to absolie hitn from
following its guiding ray., The marginal
explanation:in his account-book, in regard to
the expenses of his wife's annual visit to the
camp during the revolutionary war, with
his passing allusion to the " self-denial"
which the exigencies of his country had cost
him, furnishes a charming illustration of his
habitual exactness. The fact that every bar
rel of flour which Wle the brand of "George
Washington, Mount Vernon,!' was exemp
ted from the otherwise uniform inspection in
• the West India ports—that name being re
garded as an ample guaranty of the quality
and quantity of any article to which it was
affised--suppliesa not less striking proofthat
his exactness was everywhere understood.
MAN• OF 1799.
In the war of the Revolution, Henry Pe)
ton, of Virginia, lost three sons. When the
intelligence was brought to hint that his third
and laskson was slain, he walked from the
inesienger agonized withgriel, but, suddenly
Stifling his emotions, hetufned and said :
" Sir, much its I deplore fife loss of my poor
boy, I l would to God Iliad another to supply
his place, though he likewise perished in the
cause of his country."
That isthe kind of stuff of which the Vit.-
ginians . of the Revolution, men and women,
were Made. That is the kind of sacrifices
they offered upon the altar-of Liberty. That
is the spirit-of the land in which George
Washington was born. Butlittle more than
a man's lifetime haipassed since, these events,
and there - are iliose.yet living who, witnessed
them.--That time has made some alteration
in - Virginia ; it haS witnessed the decline and
the resurrection of her prosperity, but it has
produced no changes in the old Virginia love
of Liberty and of the Country. The flame
of patriotism still burns as brightly as when ,
it first was kindled by the breath of Patrick
Henry; and guarded by the sword of Wash=
higton.
When Virginia is invoked to throw away
that Union which is the result of her revolt,-
tionary struggles and the solitary citadel of
Liberty upon earth, she need only point,
without a word, to the graves of her, war
riors; to - the blood which-stained her halls
and cottages in the revolutionary era ; to the
ashes of her sous consumed in the furnace of
battle. Can you expect that she will do such
dishonor to these valiant and mighty dead as
to cast. away the only fruits of their toil and,
the only trophies of their victory ? It were
an idle and a worse than idle expectation.=
Her proud lip curls in scorn at the thought of
• such base degeneracy. Her people are ready
now, as in 1779, to give-all their children to
'save that Union which their antes_ turn built
up at such stupendous sacrifices; and when
the last has fallen, to say, " Would to God . l
had soother to supply his place, though he
likewise perished in the cause of his country.

A FATHER'S ADVICE TO HIS SON.
The time draws nigh, dear. John, tha
must go the way from which none returns
cannot take - thee with me, and leave thee
in,,a world where good counsel is not supera
bundant. No one is born wise. Time and
expedience teach us to separate the grain from
the zthiff. I have seen more of the world
than yo it it is not all gold, dear son, that
glitters. 1 \ have seen many a star from Hea
ven fall, and, many a staff on which men
have leaned,xtireak : therefore I give this
advice, the restilt of my experience. Attach
not thy heart to \ any transitory thing. The
truth comes not to as dear son: we must seek
for it. That which you see. scrutinise care
fully, and with regard , to things unseen and
eternal rely on God. Search no one so close
ly as thyself. Within u \ s \ dwells the judge
who never deceives, and \whose -voice is
more to us than the applauseS. of the world,
and more than all the wisdom of the Egyp
tians and Greeks. Resolve, my son, to do
nothing to which this voice is opposed:—
When you think and project, strike on your
forehead and ask for his counsel, He speaks
at first low, and lisps as au innocent child ;
but if you honor his influence, he gradually
loosens his tongue and speaks more distinctly.
Despise not any religion : it is easy to de
spise, but it is much better to understand.—
Uphold truth when thou coast, and be will
ing for her sake to be hated but know that
thy individual cause is not cause of truth,
and beware that they are not confounded. Do
good for thy own satisfaction ; and care not
what follows. Cause no grey hairs -to any
one; nevertheless,' for the right even grey
hairs are to be disgraced. Help and, give
willingly when thou host. and think no more
of thyself fur it, and it thou bast not let
thy hands be ready with a drink of colewa
ter, and esteem thyself for that no less;' not
always what thou kuowest, but knose al
ways what thou sayest. Not the appare v nt
devout, but the truly devout man respect,
and go in his ways. A man who has the
fear of God in his heart is like the sun that
shines and warms, though it does not speak.
Ho that which is worthy of recOmpence, and
ask none. Reflect daily upon death, and
seek the life which is beyond with a cheer
ful courage,• and further go not out of the
world without having testified by some good
deed thy love and respect for the Author of
Christianity.—Grelhe.
CONVERSATION OP A TRITE LADY.
In discourse, her words are rather fit than
fine,very choice and yet not chosen. Though
her language be not gaudy, yet thei plainness
thereof pleased): it is proper, and hand
somely put on. Some having a set of fine
phrases, will hazard an impertinence to use
them all, as thinking they give full satisfac•
tion for.dragging in thy - matter by head and
shoulders, if they dressm quaint expressions.
Others, often repeat the same things: the
Platonic yeat of their 'discourses being not
aboie three days long, in which term all the
same matter returns-over again, threadbare
talk ill-suiting with the variety of their
clothes.— Thomas Fuller.
na— PREACH SMALL. "- " Mother," said
a little girl, seven years old, "I could not
understand our minister today, he said so
many hard words. I wish lie would preach
so that - little 'girls could understand him.—
Won't be, mother?" "Yes, I think , so, if
we.ask him." Soon aftei, her father saw
ber.going to the minister's. - "VI: here are
you 'going. Errima r. said he. "I am going:
over to Mr. to ask him to preach
small."---Chnitian Times. -
tr7..A:FEARFUL THOUGHT.—" It is a ter

ber that nothing can be forgotten. I have
somewhere read4tat not an oath is uttered
that dots not contiirar to vibrate through all

A ROWLAND FOR ANDLIVIER.
—..- •
, Soon after the revolutionary war, a brave
Yankee officer, a former captain in the. ter-
vice, happened to be at St. Petersburg, in
Russia, and while, there was invited to dine •
at the table of a distinguished merchant.—
There was a large number of guests at the .
table, and among the rest an English lady,
who was anxious to appear as one of the
"knowing ones..' On understanding that
an American was sitting near -her, she ex-
pressed to one of her friends a determination
to qui? him. She fastened up9o•ldm like a
tigress, making numerous inquiriett touching
our habits, customs, dress, manners * modes
of lkfe, eductilion, amusements, Ito. • To all
these queries the Officer gave courteous an
• wers, which seemed to satisfy all tbe com
pany with the exception of the lady.herself.
She as determined not to be satisfied, and
went n :—" Have the rich peopleln your
country ny carriages ? for I suppose there
\
are some ho call themselves rich." "My

few carriages pt , bat in larger towns and
cities on the mai land there are quiteanum
her maintained, o iled to our republican
manners." " In d '," replied his fair quell-
lik wt
goner. in a tone that as both interrogative
and exclamatory ; " I c n't fancy where you
find coachman :. I should'nt think the Amer-
icans know how to drive a coach." "We
flt.d no difficulty on that account, Madam:"
calmly rejoined the
_captain ; "we can have
plenty of drivers by sending toEngland a ft er ~
them."" To England !" exclaimed the la
dy, speaking very quickly :' " I think the
Americans ought to drive the English, in
stead of the English driving the Americans.”
- We did Madam, in the late rivar," rejoined
the officer; " but since the peace, we have
permitted the English to drive us!" There
was no more " quizzing" of our American
during the dinner. He waited in vain, like
Sam Weller m " Bardell vs. Pickwick," for
he next question.—Knickerbocker Meg.
A LITTLE FABLE
The sword of the warrior was taken down
to brighten ; it had not been long ont of use.
The rust was rubbed off, but there were spots
that would not go—they were of, blood.—
The pen took advantage of the first_breath'
of air to move a little further off.'
" Thou art right," said the sword, "I am
a bad neighbor."
" I fear thee not," replied the pen ; "I am
more powerful than thou art, but love not
thy society."
" I exterminate;" said the sword.
And I perpetuate," answered the pen
" where are thy victories, if I recorded theta
not? Even where thou shalt one day be—
in the lake of Oblivion." .
Beneath the rule of tnen entirely great,
The pen is mightier than the sword.'
LUTIIEWS OPINION OF MUSIC
" - Music," says Luther, "is one of the
fairest and most glorious gifts 'of God, to
which Satan is a bitter enemy i for it re
moves front the heart the weight of sorrow
and 'the formation of evil thoughts. Music
is a kind and gentle sort of discipline ; it
Defines the passions and improves the under
standing. Even the playing of unskilful
fiddlers serves to set off the charms of true
melody, as white is made more conspicuous
by the operation of black.' Those who love
music are gentle and honest is their tempers.
I always- love music," adds Luther, "and
would not, for a greater matter, be without
the little skill which I possess in the art."
QUA WisE LANDLORD.-L—OriC night a
judge, a military offieo, - and a:priest, all ap
plied for lodging at ad' inn where there was
but one spare bed, and the- landlord was
called upon to decide which' had the best
claim of the three.
"I have lain fifteen years in the garrison
at 8.," said the officer.
• "I have sat as judge twenty years in R.,"
said the judge.
"With your leave, gentlemen,' have stoid \- "."

in the ministry twenty-five years at AI.,
said the priest.
"That settles the dispute," said the land
lord. "You, Mr. Captain, have, lain fifteen
years—you. Mr. Judge; have, sat twenty
years—but the aged pastor has god five-and
twenty years, so he certainly has the best -
right to the bed. •

CC7 PRETTY IDEA.—Who can forget the
unchanging affection of a sister 2 The fol
lowiug is a beautiful idea of sisterly affection:
"it may he worthy of remark, that while
we haveAii our 'language an expressive
term for /Meth/ affection, for motherly, and
for brotherly, there is no such single word to
he applied fur the sister. We have paternal
love, maternal.love, fraternal love :—let us
van the undying devotion of a fond sister,
eternal love."
icr OUR FIRSTI FAULT. -Our first fault,
like the pritlific poppy of Aboutage, produces
seeds ,innumerable. The wind wafts them
away, and we know nol where they fall nor
when they may rise; toit this we know, that
they meet us at every step upon the path of
life, and strew it with plants of bitterness.

--1 "No ENJOYMENT." says Sydney Smith,
" however inconsiderable , is confine d to the
present moment. A man is the happier for
life from having made once an agreeable
tour or lived for any . length of time with
pleasant people, or enjoyed any•considereble
interval of innocent pleasure."
AN IDOL 'may be undeified by many

a kind of counter-apotheosis, or a deification

"that if all persons knew what they said of

from one to another often give rise to."
