WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 27,,1858 LOAD SIACATJLAY VERSUS WILLIAM Lord ISIAe AuLAy s it may bo remembered dealt very hardly with the memory of WIL LIAM PENN, the founder of Pennsylvania. PENN found a defender in Mr. 11E14011111 Dixon, the present editor of the London slihpluttim, who issued two or three pamphlets, in which ho earnestly required MACAULAY to take back his charges. MACAULAY took no notice of pamphleteer or pamphlets, and edi tion after edition of the " History of Eng. land , from the accession of JAMES the Second," has appeared, during the last eight year., perpetuating the open charge and in. sidlous insinuations against WILLIAM PENN. Last month was commenced the publication, " revised and corrected by the author," of a new and greatly cheaper edition of 'the His tory—so that instead of paying $2O, the Lon don price, for, the work in four volumes, it can be obtained at $10.50, for • seven volumes, much more beautifully printed and , got Two of these volumes, issued monthly, have appeared, and It is understood, or expected, that when the last volume of this Issue has been published, two more volumes will appear bringing the History far Into the reign of Queen ANNE. Nor is it expected that Lord MAce.v,- LAY will be able to extend his narrative be yond the death of "Brandy Nan," as her Majesty was familiarly called. Lord Msuort'a History of England, it may ho remembered, runs from the Peace' of Utrecht in 1718 to the Peace of Versailles in 1788 ; but Lord-MACAU LAY, picturesque• painter that he is, is not likely to forego the pleasure of describing the ' death-bod of Queen ANNE, when Ai+ lethargic woman, beset by the leaders of contending factlons, had, just sufhpienreonseionaness re maining to place the Tretteurer's Nittir into the hands of tlieDrilte . Of Shrewsbury', and entreat . him, with feeble accents, to use it for the good of her people. MAOAIILAY't3 original charge against WILLIAM PENN, which he repeats ill the revised and corrected edition, stands thus : - "An ,order was sent down to Taunton that all these little girls .should be seised and imprisoned. Sir Francis Warm of,lfestemearthe,the Tory,mem her for Bridgewater, was requested to undertake the office of exacting the ransom. lie was charged .to declare in strong language that the Maids of Honour would not endure delay, that they were de termined to prosecute to, outlawry, unless a reit ,sonable sum, were forthcoming, and. that by a rota , sonablo sum were meant seven thousand pounds, Warre excused himself from taking any part in a transaction so •seandalons. The Maids offonour then requested William Penn to act for them, and Penn accepted the commission." Mr. HEMONTM Dixon contended, In his "Life of Penn," that his hero, WILLIAM PENN, was not the pardon -broker described by MA CAULAY ; that the actual delinquent wan a cer tain Geonan, PENNE, who waft at Taunton a t the time ; that this GEOACE PENNE was there and then employe& hi selling pardons ; that -he was a likely person to be employed .by SOMEERET and the Maids of Honor, on 8116114 matter, as he had corresponded-with the Privy Council ; his letters, to this day, being entered In the Registers of the Privy Council; and that the whole character of `lrtiltsit rEsx was opposed to the idea of his complicity in such a deed as liscatmar charged with With. Though Mr. HErwonte Dixon put his points in rather a pedantic and dictatorial- manner, there evidently was substance in them. In our judgment, ho cleared away the imputations against WILLIAM PENN. It happens that Lord MACAULAY is of a different opinion. He has preserved' his original text unaltered, with the addition of a justificative note, which, though long; is too full of interest and importance not to be quoted here, in Nil. The note runs thins: • 715,760 88 100,000 OD 816,780 83 $A36,2411 00 300,910 00 " Looka's 'Western Rebellion'; Toulmin's for y of Taunton,' edited by Savage ; 'Letter of the Duke of Somerset to Sir F. Warm; Letter of Sun derland to,renn,' February 1 30. 6 8 5 '6, (tutu the State Paper °Mee, in the Mackintosh Collodion. (1848.) The letter of Sunderland la as follows : " 4 Wnirsnam., Feb. reee-o. "'Mr. Penne,—lfer Majesty's Maids of Honour baying acquainted me that they designe to emPloy yen and Mr. Walden in making a composition with the relations of the Maids of Taunton for the high misdemeanor they have been guilty of, I do at their request hereby let you !thew that His Ma jtsty has boon pleased to give their fines to the said Maids of, Hottour,.and therefore recommend it to Mr. Walden and you to make the most odventa. geons contheeltion you tan in their behalfe.—l am, Sir, your humble servant. SUNDERLAND.' —That the parson- to whom this letter woe ad dressed was 'William Penn the Quaker was net doubted by Blames Mackintosh, who first brought It to light, or; ea far as •I•aur aware, by' any ther person, till after the publication of thefirst part of this history. It his since been confidently asserted that the letter was encased to a embalm George Penne, who _appears from an old acoount-book, lately discovered. to leave been concerned in a ne gotiation for the ransom of one of Monmouth's fol lowers, named Acarlah Pinney. If I thought that I had committed nn error, I should, I hope, hare the honesty to acknowledge it. But, after full con .lideration,ape satisfied that ;Sunderland's letter was addressed to William Penn, • Much has been said about the way in which the name le spelt. The Quaker, we are told, was not Mr, Penne, but Mr. Penn. I feel assured that no person convergent with the beetle and manuscripts of the seventeenth century will attach any importance to this argu. meat. It is notorious that a proper name was then thought to be well spelt if tho sound wore preeorved. To go no further than the persons who, in Penn's time, held the Great Seal, one of them is sometimes Hyde, and sometimes Hide; another is Jeffories, Jeffries, Jefferoys, and Jef freys ; a third to Somers, Sommers, and Summers; a fourth is Wright, and IVrighte; and a fifth ie Cowper and Cooper. The Queker's name was spelt in three way'. Be, and his tether, tho Ad miral, before him, invariably, as far as fhave ob served, spelt it Penn; but most people spelt it Pen; and there were thine •who adhered to the ancient form, Penne. For example, Wil liam the father is Penne in a letter from Disbrow to Thurloo, dated en the 7th of De cember, 1851 ;. and William the son is Penne in a nows-loiter of the 22d of Septem ber, 1688, printed in the Ellis Correspon dence. In. Richard Ward's 'Life and Letters of Henry More,' printed in- 1710, the name of the Quaker will bo found spelt in all the three ways,Penn in the index, Pen in page 197, and Penne in page 311. The name is Penne in the Commission whiob the Admiral carried out with him on his expedition to the West Indies. Burdett, who became Secretary to the Admiralty soon after the Revolution, and remained in office long after the accession of the noun of Hanover, always, in his Naval History, wrote the name 'Penne. Surely it cannot, be thought strange that an old-fashioned spelling, in which the Secretary of the Admiralty persisted so late as 1720, should have been used at the office of the Secretary of State in'l6B6. I am quite eel& dent that, if the letter which we are considering bed been of a difibrent kind, If Mr. Penne had been informed that, In consequence of his earnest intercession, the King had beemgraolonsly pleased to grant a free pardon to the Taunton girls, and if I had attempted to deprive the Quaker of the credit of that intercession on the ground that his name was not Penne, the very persons who now complain so bitterly that I am unjust to 1118 me mory_would hare complained quite as bitterly, and, I must say, With much more reason. I think myself, therefore, perfectly justified in considering the names, Penn and Penne, as the same." We interrupt the quotation, to say that liLteatmAy is tot justified In considering the names of PENN and PENNE, as the 881110. As Mr. Dthou says, "A letter is found addressed to Mr. PENNE. " There is a Mr. PENNE. He spells his name PENNE. TllO Pinner fhmily spell his name Parma. Everybody spells his name PENNE. In deeds, petitions, Acts of Parliament, it is spelt PENNE. Moreover, he is a pardon-broker. He Is at Taunton. He is actually engaged in soiling pardons. Why, then, assume Hull, the writer of the letter is ignorant of the mode in which his correspond. eat writes his name e" Lord Macaulay pro coeds; "To whioh, then, of the two persons who bore that name, George or William, is it probable that the letter of the Secretary of State wan addressed George was evidently an adventurer of A very low class. All that we learn about him from the papers of the Pinney family is that he was employed in the purchase of El pardon , for the younger son of a dissenting minister. Tbo whole sum which appeare to have passed through George's hands on this occasion was "sixty-five pounds.. His commission on the transaction must therefore have been small. The only other informatioU width we have about him is that he, some time later, applied to the Government fur a favor widish was very far from being an honor. In England the GroomPurter of the Pekoe had a jurisdiction over games of chance, and made some very dirty gain by Issuing lottery tickets and licensing hazard tabler George ap pears to have petitioned for a similar privilege in the American colonies. 214,498 24 William Penn was, during the reign of James the Second, the moat motive and powerful aoliol. ter about the Court. I *ill quote the words of his admirer CCOOMO. 'Qaum autem Ponnus tante gratis plurinum' spud regem valaret, et per Id porplares emcee acquireret, - ilium cranes, etiam qui modo aliqua noiitia erant conjunct', reties aliquid s rage postulandum agenduluve PHILADELPHIA, WEDN,g t SD4Y. JANUARY 27. 1858. spud mom Met, Wire, ambire, °rare, ut aped regesn. adjuvaret.' He was overwhelmed , by business of this kind, iebrutus negotiationibuir curationibusque.' Hie house and the approachea to it were every day blocked up by crowds of per-t sons who came to request his good of fi ces; 'donuts., no vestibule quotidlo roforta °Bending otsupplioan,' , tium.' From the Fountainhall papers it appears that his intluenae was felt oven in the highlands of Scotland. We learn from himself that, at thie time; ho was always toiling for others, that ho 'was a daily suitor at Whitehall, and that, if ho bad, ohoson to sell his influence, he could, in little snore than three years. have put twenty thousand, pounds into his pocket, and obtained a hundred, thousand more for the improvement of the colony, of which ho was proprietor. Snell was the poss., tion of these two men. Which of them, then, was the more likely to be employed in the matter to: which Sunderland's letter related? :Was it George or William, an agent of the lowest or of the high est claps? The persons interested were ladies of rank and fashion , _ resident at the palaoo, where George would hardly, have been admitted into an outsr room, but where William was every day in the presence chamber, 'and was fre quently called into this clout. The greatest no-. Isles in the kingdom were zealous and active In the cause of their fair friondS, nobles with whom William lived in habits of familiar: intercourse, but who would hardly have thought George fit company for their grooms. The suits in question was seven thousand pounds, a suni not largo when compared with the masses of wealth' with which William had constantly to deal, hut more than a hundred times as large as the only ransom which is known to have passed through the hands of George These considerations would suffice to raise a strong presumption that Sunderland's letter was addressed to William, and not to George; bat thereto a still stronger argument behind. it IS most important to observe that the person to whom this, etter was addressed was not the first person whom the Maids of Honour had requeeted to net for them. They applied to him, because another person, to whom they had previously applied, had, after Dome cor respondence, declined the office. From their first application we learn with certainty what sort of person they wished ,to employ. If it sir first appli dation had been Made to some obscure pettifogger or needy gambler, we should be warranted in be lieving that the Penne to whom their second ap. pliontion was 'side was George. If, on the other hand, their first'application was made to a gentle man of flier highest consideration; we can hardly be wrong in saying that the Penne to whom their second application was made melt have been Wil liam. To whom; then, was their first application made? It was to Sir Francis Warre, of Hester combs, a baronet and a member of Parliament. The l etters are still extant in which the Duke of Somerset, the proud Niko, 'nor a man very likely to have corresponded with George Penne, pressed Sir Franois to undertake the commission. The latent M these letters is dated about three weeks before Sunderland's letters to Mr. Penne Somerset tells Sir Franois that the town clerk of Bridgewater,' whose name, I may remark in passing, is spelt sometimes Bird and sometimes Birde, bad offered his services, but that those services bad boon doellised. It is clear, therefore, that the Maids of Honour were deeltous to have an agent of high station and character. And they were right. For the sum which they demanded was so large that no ordinary jobber could safely be entrusted with the care of thelrinteresta. As Slr Francis Warre ex cused himself from undertaking the negotiation, it became necessary for the Maids of Honour and their advisers to choose somebody who might sup ply his pines; and they ohm Penne. Which of the two Penises, then, must have boon their oholoe, George, a potty broker to whom a poreentage on sixty-live pounds was an object, and whose highest ambition was to derive an infamous livelihood from cards and slice, or William, not inferior in so oial position to any commoner In the kingdom? Is it possible to believe that the ladies who, in Jane all, employed the bake of Somerset to procurator them as agent in the first rank of the English gentry, and who did not think an attorney, though occupying a respectable post in a respeetable cor poration, good enough for their purpose, would, in February, have resolved to trust everything to a follow who was as much below Bird as Bird was be low Warr° ? " But, it is said, Sunderland's letter is dry and distant; and he never would have written in such a 'style to William. Penn, with whom he was on friendly terms. Can It be necessary for me to reply that the official communioations whieh a minister of State makes to his dearest friends and nearest relations are as cold and formal as those Which he makes to strangers? Will It he oontauded that the General Wellesley, to whom the Marquess Wellesley, when Governor of India, addressed so many letters beginning with Sir,' and ending with 'I have the honor to bo your obedient servant,' cannot possibly have been his Lordship's brother Arthur? But, it Is sold, Oldmixon tells a different story. According to him, a Popish lawyer, named Brent, and a subordinate jobber, named Crane, were the agents in the matter of the Taunton girls. Now it is notorious that of all our historians Oldmixon is the least trustworthy. Ills most pool tire assertion would be of no value when opposed to ouch evidence as is furnished by Sunderland's tot ter. But Oldmixon assorts nothing positively. Not only does he not assert positively that Brent and Crane anted for Gat:Maids of lionour, 'but he does not even assert positively that the Maids of Nanette wore at all concerned. Ile goelfne further than 'it was said,' and 'it was reported.' It is pleb, therefore, that he was very imperfectly in formed. I do not think it impossible, however, that there may have been some foundation for the rumor which be mentions. We have seen that one busy lawyer, named Bird, volunteered to look after the interests of the Maids of Honour, and that they were forced to tell him that they did not want his Services. Other persons, and among them the two whom Oldnaixon names, may have tried to thrust themselves into so lucrative a job, and may, by pretending to interest at Court, have succeeded in obtaining a little money from terrificil But nothing can be more clear than that the au thorized agent of the Maids of Honour was the Mr. Patine to whom the Secretary of State wrote; and I firmly believe that Mr. Penne to have been Wil liam the Quaker. ' "Hit be said that it is incredible that so good a man would have been cottoned in so bad an affair, I oan enly answer that this affair was very far indeed from boiog the worst in which he was concerned. For them 13360119 I leave the text, and shell leave It, exactly as it originally stood. (1857.)" Here, then, is the whole of-Lord MA. CAULAE'EI Metes against WILLIAM PENN. We make no apology for its length, because it is important, and the book from which it is ex tracted has not yet reached this country. To us, Lord liAcxur,Ar's elaboration appears weak and inconclusive, and his concluding trick kcf spergero vices to ambiguas") of in. Omitting that ho could utterly destroy PENN, if it so pleased him, shows a determination to stand by his prejudices, right or wrong, which must weaken his authority as a his- torian. To wind up, about WILLIAM PENN, by slanderously saying "I can only answer that this affair was very far indeed tYom being the worst in which ho was concerned," is an assumption of authority wholly unjustifiable. It is toobad for WILLIAM PENtes character to bo thus paragraphed away, a hundred and forty years after his death, by Lord 31noAtr. LAX, or any body else. FROM KANSAS. Correspondence of The Press.] POILT SCOTT, K. T., Jan. 14, 1858 Heretofore I have been calculating so much upon the fame of Fort Scott as to take it for granted that your readers know its exact loca tion. It might have been more proper in the outset, to have stated that it is within about sixty miles of the southern boundary of the Territory, and about ninety miles south of Kansas city. The latter is its nearest steam boat landing. A glance at the snap will show that wo are within about six miles of the Mis souri lino. We are ono hundred and eighty miles froin Jefferson city, the furthest western point to which the cars now run. We are about one hundred and twenty miles south east of Lecompton. Any of the old maps of the country will show our position. We aro not a more paper town, but the oldest, or at least the second, in the Territory. Fort Scott was an old military post, built by the Government at an expense of about $200,- 000. In 1865, upon the withdrawal of the troops, the buildings were sold to individuals. It was incorporated into a town by the first Legislature of the Territory. It was at the same time made the county-seat of Bourbon— ono of the oldest, wealthiest, and most norm lous counties of Kansas. Tho United States district court has been located here by act of Congress, also the United States land office for southern Kansas. We are one of the five places of the Territory that have received a bank charter—an item of no great consequence, except to indicate the deference that has been I paid to us by the Legislature. A university has also been chartered, and two railroad com panies—the latter for the purpose of snaking Fort Scott the point of intersection for roads north and south, and cast and west. The Methodist church south has a good school here. They intend also to establish a semi nary for young ladies. The Fort buildings surround a large plaza in the shape of a public square. Some of these originally cost about $lB,OOO, They aro finished in the best style of eastern mansions, with large porticoes and pillars in front and rear, and all painted white. Inside they are finished with the best walnut-mantels, doors, windows, &c., carved in the neatest style. In front is a flag-stone pavement about fifteen feet wide, skirted with a row of large shade trees. The plaza is a beautiful blue-grass sward, dotted here and there with trees. It contains In largo public well, which is covered with.a high structure pillared and roofed, and affording a good imitation of Grecian archi tecture. In these mansions some of our most prominent citizens reside. One of them, is known as the i‘ Fort Scott Hotel: , It is kept by Mr. Campbell, of Michigan, in a style that would surprise your untravelled readers. Another is the residence of Governor Ran som, the receiver, and another the house of General Clark, the acting register of the land office.

We ask you ,tn consider her entree she appeared before the fOot•llghts. February 23, 1821, at a poor Inn; in an insigul fican4Village called Munf, canton of Arau, Salt a-Ortega,a female child was born, and named Eli. zabetit.Bachel. her mother, who had wandered there Who delivered, was a Jewish woman, named Rothe} hays, wife of n travelling Pedlar, Felix, a native; of Meta, France. Such was the obscure origin of the future queen of the drama. ' For the next nine or ten years, the father, rue thor, and children travelled from fair to fair, from village to village, through Switzerland, Germany, and Franco. During the last two years of the time they found shelter in Lyons, and there car ried on'their small traffic. It is Said that while in this pheas,'Sarah, the eldest child, frequently wont about lathe rafts singing, and accompanying her self on the guitar, and that her sister Rachel col !Mod the contributions. In 1235 they found their way from Lyons to Paris, where they esta blished themselves in a poor dwelling in the Place de Greve. FrOmthis point of time to the date of her ap pearance 'at the Thiltre-Franeels, we have no very call account of her life. Anecdotes innumera ble, enough to till a volume, have appeared in print concerning Raohel's childhood, but we reject most of themes purely apocryphal, and give place only to those events which we know to be accurately stated. It is certain that her talent foreran her Veen), and that her father was quick to pereeive it. We may mention bore that he is a man of decided intellect, Ihough uneducated, and it Is from him, rather than from the mother, that the talent) of their eidldren have been derived. In 1831, at ten years of age, she was taken by her father to the well-known musician and vocal instruetor,ll. Oberon, who had established singing class at his house, In the Rue Monsigny, and wits admitted among his pupils. Ten months after, she attended a elan of declamation kept by Saint-Aulairo, formerly an actor of the Theatre- Francais Ono of her first, if not her very first appearapea in public, took plane at the small Thedtrolloildre, in 183 d, when little more than fifteen years of age. The part she played was Reunion° in Rasine's Andromaque. tier meting was spoken of in snob high terms that /44enein. do la Salle, then manager of the Fra4als,,vieetto see her play Aminaide, ho Vol talre's Tancrede. So high was bis estimation of her talent, that he procured her en order of ad utittaneo to the Conservatoire, dated October 27, 183 e. In this institution she was placed under the tuition of Messieurs Mieholot, Samson, and Pro vost. But it hi rather strange that these pro'es sors did not entertain a very favorable idea of her capacity, nor did they think that elle would profit to any great extent by their Instructions. Ono evening, however, while pitying at the Salk Chantoreine, a private , theatre in the Rue de la Vlitoire, where amateur performances are oc• easionally given, she attracted the notice of M. Retrain), manager of the Oymnase. Iler acting pleased him so much, that ho at once offered her an engagement for three years, at the rate of 3.000 franosis6oo) for the first year, 4,000 (WO) for the second, and 6,000 ($1,000) for the third, which ahe aeceptad, and made her claw April 24, 1337, in a new place written for the occasion, and caned La Vend'Oenne. Tho play was not a good one, and her first al. peararee was not attended with any remarkable success. But other characters displayed her powers to better effect, and it aeon became Ewa rent that A minor theatre was not the sphere for the genius of Rachel. M. Vedel, formerly the treasurer, but now manager, of the Tbdfitre Franots, offered her an engagement, and M. Bohm, from a wish to ho of real service to her, agreed to cancel her engagement with him. A new engagement was signed, by which the young actress became a pensionnaire of the Thinitre Franois, at a salary of 4,000 francs (,800) for the Bret year. Hoy debut at that theatre, on the 12th of Juno, 1838, when seventeen years of ago, is so well narrated by an eye-witness that we prefer to give his account of it, tviiich we translate literally from the fourth volume of "Miimoires un Bourgeois do Purie, par lo Doetour L. Viiron :" ° On a fine summer evening, the 12th of Juno, 1838, seeking for seclusion and solitude, (and by seeking aright one finds everything in Paris, even seclusion and solitude,) towards eight or nine o'clock I entered the Thidtre Francais. There were but four spectators in the orchestra ; I made the fifth. My attention was attracted to the stage by a strange faoo, full of expression, with a prominent forehead, a dark eye, sunk in the socket, full of fire—and ail this placed upon a thin figure, but one which bad a certain elegance in its postures, its movements, and its attitudes; a thrill ing :voice, sympathetic, of most unnatural vane, and, above all, extremely intelligen t,fixed my wan- dering thoughts, which were more inclined to list lessness admiration. This singular physiog nomy—tl W eye full of tire—this meagre form— this voice of so much intelligence—were Mademol. soils Rachel's. Rho spoke for her first appearance the part of Camille, in Les Hyraces. The vivid and profound impression made upon roe in an in stant by the young tragedienne awakened a crowd of confused recollections. By dint of interroga ting my memory, I was alto to recall a singular physiognomy playing the part of La Vendienne, at the Thiiitre de Gymnast , . I could recall, also, a meanly dressed young girl, badly shed, who being asked in my presence in the corridor of a play house, what she was doing there, replied, to my groat immurement, in a tenor voice, and In the most serious tone, "I am miming my studies." I re cognised in Mademoiselle Rachel the singular physiognomy of the Theatre de G ymnaee, and the meanly dressed girl who was "pursuing her studios." "During the months of Juno and July I found but few converts to my new worship, though Made moiselle Rachel played Camille. Emilie, and Ilernsione. From the beginning of August, how ever, despite the dog-days, her performances in the same parts began to he better attended. At length, during the month of October, the young tragedienne played nine times, and the smallest re ceipts to Monime in Mithridate, rose to three thousand Mx hundred and "sixty-nine francs ninety centimes. The receipts exceeded six thousand francs when she acted Iformione. It was a com plete victory and an intoxicating triumph. Itaeine and Corneille lived wrong us again as in the great days of Louis XIV; a delirious populari ty raged for the young tragedienne and the old tragedy. "While yet a child, Mademoiselle Rachel, al ready admitted tt the C'entierrettaire, requested to have private lessons from M. Provost, an ar tistjustly esteemed and of considerable talent, as. soctato member of the Comedie Franeaise. At ' the sight of this poor girl. feeble and needy, ho observed ; Go toll bouquets, my child," The young liennione avenged herself ono night with the moat charming wit, for the contempt of her eonirado, 60 false a prophet. Tho house was crowded; all the boxes wore filled with the very highest fashion. Rachel had appeared in normione. She was applauded with enthusiasm; she was recalled with frenzy ; and when the cur tain fell she could fill her Greek tunic with the flowers thrown upon the stage. She hastened in quest of Lim whose only lesson had been the advice to sell bouquets; and falling on her knees, with the most graceful coquetry, she said, I have fol lowed your advice, M. Provost: I sell bouquets. Won't yea buy of me ?" The accomplished mister raised the yming artist, smiling) and expressed hie entire eatisfaetion in being on eompletety nits taken. . , "The fame of Dante - Rachel descended Very rapidly from the 000apetent judges, and the fine flower of the aristocracy, to the groat mass of the public. In all the papers, small and great, there was soon no topic but this brilliant and charming star, who was shedding her rays over the gray and gloomy sky of the tragedy of the Thntre Bran , gabs. Merle and Jules Janin, by their warm mdse, gave lt;tters patent of nobility to the youth• Sul genius. It was a contest who should surround thayoung artist with the most romantics interest, by relation the misery, the sorrow, and the vagrant life of ber childhood, from its very outset. The arts wore emulous in depicting this favorite of the tragic, muse; nothing'was to be seen but Rachelin lithograph, in oil, in statuettes. " Great names and large fortunes like to play the Maorenaa to Tieing celebrities. " "It was a fashion and a gre luxury to have the wild HermiOne in one's' Eaton. She could soon count among her friende, who overwhelmed her with attentions and presents,lhe moat distin guished pereons of the French soolety, as well as all the foreigners or distinction then in Paris. No reunion, no literary files, at l'Atbaye aux Lois, Madame neoarqier!s abode, but was graced by Eld'lle Rachel. In all public Places her presence was quite an event.' When she attended the Sea 'dons of the Chamber of Deputies, which she often did, playing the great lady who affected politics; she attracted the attention of this assembly of sages, and even somewhat bewildered the nista. , ouk orators wham she came to hear and to study. "How much tact and good.taste must have been necessary to sustain this sudden transition from the lowest misery to all theintoxicatiort of success, to this brilliant position of this *oiliest child of fortune, of fashion, and of the public! - Ear suc cess in the drawing-room, tho tender regard with which she managed to inspire women of distinc tion, men of intellect and learning, cannot be ex plained but by alloWing her the rarest qualities not of an actress, but of an amiable, refined, self- I possessed young girl. * * * w * , * * * . "Mademoiselle Rachel certainly studied her parts moat carefully. She first copied them out with her own band ; she noted the striking situations; the couplets where the characters are revealed ; then she composed, prepared, and toned down each part in Its general effect. Her judgment, her quick and penetrating mind,and her theatrical experience rendered her very susceptible of progress. She always played her parts better the second time then the first. She often created new af fects. In the fourth act of Les Horace', especially, her pantomime, when she learns the death of, her lover, was a, great scenic effect, but it excited terror rather than tears. Mademoiselle Rachel herself told me that it was from an illness of her own that she took the Idea and execution of this pantomime; she had boon bled, and on the etage she merely reproduced the utter exhaustion, and painful symptoms of the syncope which resulted. It was always a source of surprise ~to coo that the health of this fragile young creature could struggle against so much fatigue—such severe study—so many emotions—and such long and rough jour neys." Rachel's career at the Theatre Francais wee signalired only by triumphs : there were no re verses for her Whether in the ancient er the modern drama, the classic or the romantic sohool of acting, she was always great, always admirable. But not only in Paris was she successful; in all the groat provlnelal theatres of France, in England, in Germany, and at St. Petersburg she gained ap plause for the genius of Corneille and Racine. In her 'startling originality, her almost miracu lous effects, and her . sudden bursts of passion, she not unfrequently recalled to our mind the acting of the elder Kean. She utterly confounded the traditions and the mannerisms of the French stage, and oho often gave a new meaning and force to a phrase, and even to a single word, by her way of uttering It. She Imitated no one, not even herself. Jules Janin said of her, " Yon must not ask her before the piece begins how the will say a certain sentence, for she eangot tell you; the impulse is momentary and spontaneous. She is like the Py thoness of Virgil, first pale, her body bent, her arms banging down ; but on the arrival of the god, her exhausted nature recovers its animation, the fire mounts from her heel to her eye, her heart throbs violently, and sends forth the breath of par stun and energy. She appenre like an animated Grecian statue, so classic is her form " Rachel was not always mauler of a character on her fleet performance of it, and it was sometimes only on the third or fourth representation, when she had acquired greater confidence in herself or in her own conception of the part, that she was in full possession of her great powers. liar face, and form were modelled after the statues of ancient Greece; her figure, though slight, was graceful and coal makilng ; her manner of wearing elastic drapery iinrirted a dignity and majesty to her look, walk, and carriage, which art alone could never give. Ilor performance of Phitlre, which at first was thought inferior to some other parts, in a short time proved to be the most attractive of all her characters; the more announcement of this tra gedy, no matter how frequently repeated, never failed to attract the Parisian play-goers, and to fill to overflowing the Theatre Francais. With re ference to Raohel's conception of this character, Madame Blase de Bur" said, "We have often stu died Rachel's performance of the Athenian Queen, and from the first moment She appears, we feel that the daughter of Minos and Paslphae is actu ally before he. She Is, Indeed, according to the poet's expression : Uue femme mourante et tot cberebe a mourir.' o Life is all but extinct, and as she sinks back. ward in her chair, bur bead supported upon the bosom of (}none, we have at once an image of that unfortunate primness. Bending under the weight of her purple robes and her diadem, the royal victim BOOM to fade away almost before our eyes; and the vital spark trembles within its frail tenement as Bickers an expiring tame in an ala baster lamp There is in the wan and wasted face of Rachel a something unearthly; an unnatural tramp areney ; a sort of lighting frontwithin that is indescribably poetical ; and bar limbs totter as though, to use the image of Euripides, • they were about to dissolve.' We see that shame) , with truth say, J langui, seals dans lee roux, dans lei lames,' and that her oyes, burnt with foyer and weeping, may well indeed be' (lauded by the light of day, so long unseen.' "How impatiently her unsteady hand strives to relieve her aching brow from the ' vain orna ments' that oppress and overload it! and when, after the expostulations of the nurse, unlistened to and unheard, the again raise, her drooping head, with what mournful majesty she pronounces that magnificent apostrophe to the sun : "Noble et brill:tat anteur d'uue triste famine, Tol dent ma mere omit se venter tVetre Qui peut•etre roughs du trouble ou to me vole, Soleil, Jo to liens vole pour la dander. foie!" Nothing was ever finer, however, than her Camille in Les Homees, the part in which she commun.:ma her career of triumph at the Theiitre Francais. Who, that has ever teen her in that play, can forgot the effect of bar noting In the fourth not, when she utters her famous imprecation against Rome ! While she spoke, every eye was fixed on her, In order that not a sound, not a ges ture, might be lost ; her voice, though at times sub dued almost to a whisper, came distinct to every ear. so deep, so unbroken, was the silence; at last, when overcome by her own energy, and concentrating all her strength into one final ef fort, she, as it were, hissed out: "Mel seule en etre cause, et mourir de plaislr !" All Europe having paid homage to her genius, Rachel sought fresh triumphs in the New World. In August, 1855, she arrived at New York, and there her success was as great even as in her own country. Notwithstanding the disadvantage that many labored under, of not understanding the language in which she acted, her power enabled her to rivet the attention of her audience; in truth, they were spell-bound by the reality with which she invested each of her personation& But ltachers visit to America bad a melancholy ending. After seventeen years of glory In Europe, she crossed the Atlantic to achieve further tri umphs, Indeed, but also, alas! to act for the last time; it was destined that her genius should never again lighten up any of the teenes of her former successes. After performing two engagements in New York, and one in Boston, the appeared In Philadelphia on the 19th of November, 1855. She finished her part, Camille, with difficul ty, owing to illness, and she was not able to play again. Oa the 27th of the same month she left Philadelphia for I lavana, by way of Charleston. In the latter city she was so much better as to bo able to perform once in Adrienne Lerourreur, on the 17th of December. It was her last appear ance as an actress! From that day her malady, which was consumption of the lungs, increased ; and though she lived for a little more than No years, there VW at no time any hope of her re covery. At Cannes, France, on Sunday, January 3d, 1858, she expired. Parson Green, of Ileatiedead, L. 1., is the most venerable clergyman in the United States, being now ninety-nine yours old.

I The men have borne their trials without &murmur --duty is severe upon offerers and men ; but not a word of complaint have I heard. We have all en dured alike, and the fact that Colonel Johnston has on the march oQatpd it," as did the men, Sears the same exp&suldcinti will not permit the pffieer to receive more than the soldier, has endeared him to all. We are now in camp, nicely housed; the men all in "Sibley tents." The latter sale the necessity of huts, and are the suitable tents for the men. The wall-tent, with a shave, is the only one for an officer. The tents famished (Sibley 'tents) are very inferior, especially those made by the quartermaster—inferior in material and make, and small and unequal in size. One tent is allowed to eighteen men now, but in a few days they will be issued at one to sixteen; even that would beinsuf fieleut were not the men on guard or other,thity. Our animals axe all absent, except those needed for police purposes and for immediate consumption. • This place (Fort Bridger) is admirably located ; timber abundant close by for fuel and building; grass can be cut within two hundred yards of the garrison; water at the door; end it comthends every road leading into the country. The ,Mor mons burned the buildings of this place and Fort Supply; at the latter piled up their grain add set fire to it; left their potatoes, turnips, he. Ih the ground. The walls of Fort Bridger are s tanding; they were built fur defence last fall ; 6 feet through at base, If at top. 18 feet high, and 100 by 110 on one part, 100 by 75 on another. They tried to fire the grass, but snow fell and _extinguished it: Our snow was our salvation. When the grans was burned the flames scorched the trees sixty feet high. Had the command advanced sooner than it did, the animals wouldhave starved, and the army could not have found or reached a place of shel ter. Our grass is eaten up for three miles around us ; but we have animals on Smith's Fork, (three miles off,) and there is grass enough there for the whole bend; but no shelter arid in sufficient wood. This valley is warm, wooded and watered, and welcomed no. Our legs are un tied, or fast getting to; nod when spring tomes a more devastating ewarm of .graashopPerS never have esrept that valley of Salt Lake than will this army be, if oar progress is molested.' This people design our starvation, our destruction, and there is no device man can resort to which', they will not practise—from areassinatien, murder, fire, and flood. The robbers and assamint will scatter and form bands of guerillas, and no party, no train, no band of oxide, will piss to the valley if they can murder, burn, or run off. The Mor mono have great feer of mounted men; and had not Col. Johnston brought up the two companies of the 2tl from Laramie, (oompanies white Were to As called to Kearney, and sohiol directions had been given to prepare for at K..) from the uegligenee of the guards ant i the watchful of the Mor mons, we would now be strugglin band to get here, and without meat. Had the 2d dragoons been cant at the time direeted—telegraphed—not an animal would have been lest by theft. i The army could not, however, hare entered the valley without leaving its supplies behind. The Mormons are a set of cowards, like all as sassins and bullies; and I fear their leader,, and those who have no claims in the valley, wilt run away, requiring their deluded followers to doetroy their property, lest it might benefit us. The lead en rely on each conduct as was pursued by Con gress in the Kansas question. I hope Congress will declare the Territory In rebellion ; and cell upon all Governor', and commanding officers to arrest and keep in custody all persons leaving the Territory, and espeolelly the leaders, unless ac companied by a safeguard or passport. The Overdue Steamship Azlel [From the New York Herold of Tuesday.] The steamship Ariel, Captain Ludlow, which sailed front Havre and Southampton onthe 31st ult. for this port, has not yet made her appearance. As a matter of course, some persons expecting friends by her feel a little alarmed in een.tequerme of her non-arrival. We do not think that any fears need be entertained in regard to the safety of the Ariel, as many reasons can be admixed which would account for the delay in her arrival. If, for inattnee, any part of her machinery gave way so as to prevent ber going under steam, after being two or three days out, she could not have reached any port in England hp to the time of the departure of the Europa; or if it gave way when nearly across the Atlantic— any when ten or twelve days out—=be still would have been unable to reach this port; aS an evi dance of which, we may state, that no sailing ves sel has arrived here from Enktland during the past seven days. And again, it will be recollected that the Collins steamer Atlantic sailed from Liverpool on the 28th December, 1850, for Ifew York, and when a few days out some part of her machinery gave way, and she pot bank to Cork ; and it was not until the 15th of February that the fact became known in this city. It was forty-nine days before the Atlantic misheard from. To-day is the twenty sixth since the Ariel mailed. When tho Ariel loft Havre she bad forty passen gers and two hundred and fifty tons freight, so says a Havre paper. She probably had about one hundred passengers when she left Southampton. The following are the names of some of those who engaged passage at Bremerhaven: A. Boob, G. Wilkens, J. Helleken, M. Hoffman, J. Hoffmbnn, L. Lutgens, L. Hued, F. It. Wagner, Chr. Job eon. A Mrs. Harris, who engaged passage after wards, took a sailing ship. The Ariel was built in this city, in 19.54, of the best materials, ranks A 1, and is a superior ves sel in every respect. We shall probably hear from her by the Canada, which will be due at Halifax about Friday next. The Evergreen Anniversary of the Birthday of Robert Burns was celebrated by the Burns Club of New York city, at the Metropolitan Hotel in that city, on Monday evening. The guests entered the dining-hall preceded by a piper In highland costume, playing a stirring march. Prominent among the decorations of the hall were several portraits of the Poet, around which were drepel the flags of St. Andrew, St. George, and St. Jona than. When the guests were seated, Mr. Robert Barnett. the first vice-president, by way of grace before meat, recited the famous "Address to the Haggis." Mr. Joseph Cunningham, the president of the club, at at the head of the table. Letters were received from Lord Napier, Dr. Mackay, and other foreigners of distinguished note. After the toasts came songs by Messrs. Dunn, Gibson, and Miller; the festivities elosad at a late hour with Auld Lang Syne" by the company. The best feeling prevailed; the dinner was excellent; the speeches brief, humorous and to the point ; the singing fine; and the whole affair, we learn by the New lock papers, passed off in the moat satisfac tory manner. A letter from an officer of the United States sloop Levant. dated Mpg Kong, November 14th, to the New York Times, says: •• The Minnesota arrived here on the Bth with Minister Reed, as you in all probability hare learnt ore this. She made the passage in Ild days She is reported to &Al and steam well; but if so, she must have been badly navigated to make such a long passage. Mr. R. has been received with great favor by his countrymen here: whether ho will be so received by Commissioner Yoh remains to be seen. Captain Dupont has mails the discovery since his arrival that the Minnesota is no use on this station, as she is not able to visit anyof the Chinese ports. Min ister Reed takes up his residence on board the Portsmouth, and will probably visit Macao to have an interview with the French Minister Daring his absence the Minnesota will be caulked and overhauled. Der rigging is utterly worthless." We think that there must be some mistake about this. The arrjval of the Adriatic on her first trip created considerable sensation at Liverpool, and full accounts of her build, rig, &u., were given in several of the principal prints. The Artisan, a scientific magazine, gave a long description of this fine steamer, closing with the following reference to a valuable American invention which is applied on board: " We had well nigh omitted to state that Silver's patent uterine governor is applied to the engines of the Adriatic ; and Captain ii , est speaks in the highest terms of the invention, and ex pressed his surprise that the Government AM steamship owners should he so blind to their own interest as not to insist upon marine engine build ere fitting governors on hoard every sea-going vessel." On Wednesday last a constable named Meeke went to the hardware-shop of one J. W. Tysack, in St Louis, to levy an execution. Tyzack there upon soized a hatchet and advanced upon him, when Meeke drew a pistol and shot him through the heart. Meeke was arrested and discharged On the ground that ho was justified under the circum stances. - 00ill1.11.11Pirilltail*il. Corraspcorleate ur..

NCARY 26 illeporied for The Press.l 3ltss 'Maur GICOVEEMAN'S Par.—An unmarried lady of very mature ago, giving in her name a. Nelly 07014111111113, made the startling declaration that some of tho young men at the boarding-house where the sojourns bad " killed her Zebulon." All enected to hear the revelation of a horri)de mur der, but it proved that Zebulon was no nitre than e pet monkey, the object on which Miss Melly had lavished all her affectionate kindness. All the ar rows of Cupid aimed at Mies Neliy's bosom had been "quenched in the chaste beams of the watery moon," and after trampling on the hearts of count less adorers, (no doubt,) for a period of thirty or forty years, she decided that the male sea of the human species did not deserve her notice Where fore, at the age of forty-eight, she had pretty con clusively made up her mind to live single. (for some time at least.) and to prove her utter disregard for the society of man, she chose a much lemobjectiona ble animal, viz: a monkey of the baboon tribe, to be her pet and companion.

It so happened that this boarding house is the abiding place of several young gentlemen of fashionable pretensions. who appear to have been moved by some feeling of envy or jealousy, to form diabolical plots againstithe peace, happiness, and security of their fellow-boarder Zebulon Ills dress, tastefully arranged by Miss Nelly, W a s , in some particulars, more elegant than that of any other young gentleman in the house, and nature had provided him with Iv mus tache which was a perfect gem, so that no similar ornament, produced by artificial cultivation, could compare with it. These advantages. of course, pmeured for Zebulon an abundance of the consequence of which was that a deadly potion of nux romica was conveyed by some fiendish oontriver into his soup, Intelligence of his untimely decease having teen communicated to his distracted mistreat, she made the whole house vocal with shrieks and la mentations. But rememberkg the advice of Shakspeare. " Think, then, upon reverge and cease to weep," she put on her bonnet and shawl, went to the M tyor's office. and denounced several of the young gentlemen boarders as being con cerned in the assassination.
