' Thackeray , s Virginians."
In the November number of Harper's Mag
azine, this remarkable story is concluded.
Contrary to expectation—for the author hat
latterly appeared as if quantity rather than
ydatily were what he aimed to produce—the
winding up is excellent. In most of his pre
vious productions, Mr. TIIACKERAT brings the
dinoueineni about in a hurried, not to say
clumsy manner--a Emit which ho shares with
SOOTa and biomass, while Butvrzu and JA,IPER
are generally superior to it. But The Virgin
ians" ends woll—undb as the reader would de
sire. Indeed, if the whole work had been'
equal to these two closing chapters, wo should
not have hesitated to declare that it was one
the best-wrought Stories in the langilage.
Otero aro some defects in "Thu Virgini
ans," Which have been carefully detected and
relentlessly exposed. Item and there ana
chronisms have been found. Now, there is
something wrong in the actual personal and his
torical incidents which he weaves in. There, ho
is a little inaccurate in his geography. Nor 'lave
'mine critics quite forgiMn Min, for a mistake
in the season when niaple.sugar is made, upon
the frontier of Pennsylvania, the real Empire-
Stilt.) of this great Confederation, it is gene
rally adruitted, too, that Mr. THACHERAY haA
sometimes introduced eminent historical and
literary characters, who have scarcely any thing
to do with the actual Personages of the story
—introduced them, ono might fancy, merely
to show his own familiarity with them, just as
tourists, on their return from abroad,
flaiib bolero the eyes or their stay-at-holne arm
qtiaintances, the names of foreign marquises,
counts, and barons whom they casually en
countered in their travels.
Another fault, very habitual to this author,
for it runs through the whole of his writings, Is
the re-introduction of the personages whom he
ha's created in previous works. The War
ringtons figure not only in ic Esmond,"
but in c( Peudennis" and "The Ne4comes."
Captain Coatigan, who looms so • largely
in Pondennis" and, not so ostentatiously
in cg The Newcomes," is reproduced in "The
Virginians," sixty or seventy years earlier,
in the person of an ancestral bibulous she
riff's-officer. The fair and frail Beatrix of
( 4 Esmond" is brought on again as tho eat&
Pitying Baroness of "The Virginians," and
we even have a glimpse of the Marquis of
SteYne, who has already been too anuch seen
in ‘, Vanity Fait," in gc l'elideenis," and aWCII,
if we recollect rightly, in "The Newcomes."
Nay, because poor little Foker has figured in
Pendonnis," and has been mentioned in
tine Newcomes," his' grandfather is obtru
dedin "The Virginians," as Mr. Voolker, the
eminent brewer. We attribute this' to three
causes. Mr. Timms:max may be too lasy to
vacate an entirely now set of characters for
each book ho writes; or ho may lack the erea•
tivo power ; or he may have such a good opin
ion of himself as to think that the piddle think
sown of his old characters that they must bo
glad to Meet them again•and again. Not thus
has it been with Fix niso and Snoutrr, with
Sijoix and Thies, with BoMvxn and Dicacus.
They produce. now characters in each new
Welt—though, to be candid, voluiniriona wri.
's can scarcely avoid; bringing up old friends
4w..fates.. Attrazas brought back Sant
IVe and 'soma of' the Pickivlek ircoUle, and
put them - into «Master lliimphrey'a Clock"
—but it wan so far from a success that, In all
subsequent editions of that work, he has omit.
ted the introductory chapters, in which these
people reappear.
When we say that the story is slowly de-.
voloped, and has scarcely action at all in most
01. the London scenes, which occupy more
than half of it, and that the plot is deficient
in constructive power, we conclude the anus
of objections which may be brought against
it. It would not be Thackerayish without
sardonic satire ; but there is little cynicism
mingled with this. General reflections, not
complimentary to human life and its dramatis
personce, are freely indulged in, but they are
not much more severe than might be expected
from and forgiven in one who is a man of the
world as well as a man of letters; a man who
has drank freely of life's bitters as well as of
itt sweets; a man, not naturally very ill
natured, who did not acquire the place in
public favor which he occupies until lie bad
reached middle age. We look upon his caustic
remarks, in "The Virginians," as little more
than—
Buromer-liithtnings, ilmhee of the teiwt,
That shine but norm not
We consider his gibes and sneers, backed
as they are by undeniable and sagacious life
experience, as only
The I,tinginge of the heart the world halt stung
and wo close the book with the consoling re
flection that Mr. TIIACKERAT'S tartar is get
ting deposited into a tc crust," (like old port
wine,) as ho grows older, and is gradually
mellowing down into a delightful beverage,
whose gentle roughness is the essential quality
for which it is enjoyed with a gusto by con
noisseurs.
Writing, as wo do, with only a recollection
of ig The Virginians," as reak piecemeal in
Harper during tho last two years, we are un
prepared to assign to it the place, among its
author's numerous writings, to which It is en
titled. In a few days the work will be before
the public, in book form wo suppose, when, of
course, every person will read it again. At
present we aro inclined to place it next
Vanity Fair," which le undoubtedly the most
original and racy of TitscitenAr's fictions.
There is no character In it so beautifully
drawn and developed as that of Colonel Clive,
that true-hearted gentleman; no scene equal
to his closing ono; but the general tone of
The Virginians " is higher and better than
that of ,4 The Newcomea," and the whole of
the Warrington family are well drawn. Among
the women iu this story, wo avow a predilection
for Lady Mary, because, poor woman, indiffe
rent as she was, she had a heart strongly throb
bing within her bosom. We arc very sorry to
find that she latterly took to drinking; the only
consolation is that in Virginia the via du pays
is Bourbon or Monongahela, In those days, nt
least, an unadulterated strong water, which
uould do her less halm than any other drink.
Let it be charitably hoped that she got it
good.
It is scarcely fair, though inevitable, to com
pare an author with himself, and not with
others. if ever it be allowable, however, it is
in the case of MAL:Kt:Ram, who is so peculiar
a writer—who is completely sui gene/qr. Such
a work as The Virginians" no other man
cOuld have written. Ile has contributed
largely to the entertainment of the reading
public, and, at any rate, this book is not infe
rior to any preceding production. The sins
of a man's youth rise up against him in his
nurturer years, and thus THACICERAY'S hastily
written magazine and Punch pipets are ar
rayed against hint iu men's minds. Many of
them arc too ihmiliar, if not even vulgar, and
many who have been disgusted, while they
laughed, with the bad spelling of ,4 Tomes"
and ce Yellowplush" can scarcely believe that
Tit/tot:Bum; has written as good English, and
id as elevated and graceful a style as ally man
now living. l There was something not only
absurd, but unnatural, in making James Plush,
the footman, misspell his own name into
"Jeanses." Not so did SMOLLETT, who in
vented the style, make his Winifred Jenkins
write.
'There Is some little inconsistency in the
treatment of WARRINUTON by Mr. THACKER/ON
WO tin not now allude to the commencement of
a Vrevieus work, in which he spoke of .; Mr.
WANHINOTON fighting with a courage worthy of
a better cause," but of his sketches of him In
"The Virginians." At first ho is treated
slightly—we had nearly said slightingly. But,
when he reappears towards the close of the
work, ample justice is rendered to him. We
seriously doubt whether any other writer,
American or foreign, has presented a more ac
Curate and discriminating view of Wasunth
rotes character than that given by Mr. Thxex.
Mtn in thh final chapter of "The Virginians."
It is, in writing, what a portrait from the pen
cil of TITIAN, VISLABOVICZ, or VANDYKR would
be in painting. We'eaunotrefrain from giving
our readers an opportunity of participating, by
a brief extract, in 'our full admiration of this
pen-and-ink portraiture, which shows what a
wonderful artist THACaEIIAT really is.
Maury 'Warrington, we must premise, is a
Colonel in the Continental Army, and, with
others, angry at the protnetion by Congress of
" a mere French lad," (LarxrcorrE,) to the
rank of Major-General. Bode words used by
Warrington about getting frogs to feed the
Frenchmen and having a bagful of Marquises
over from Paris, had been repeated to General
Wxentsoroa, who had a sincere affection for
the young matt. This was at the time trhott
cabals prevailed, in Congress and in the army,
against the great leader. Warrington per
ocived that his General became cold to him :
At last,' flat resumed, ' Mrs. Washington
found out the mystery. Speak to meatier (linnet,
Colonel MO sap she. ' Couto out to the parade,-
ground, before the dining-house, and I will tell
you all.' I left half ,a acorn of general officers and
brigadiers drinking round the General'e table, and
Pound Mts. Washington waiting for me. bhe then
told me it was the speedh I had made about the box
of Marquises with which the General was °fronded.
'I should not have heeded it in another,' be hed
said, 'bat I never thoughtlfarry Warrington would
hate joined spinet Imo.'
I had to wait on him for the word that night,
and found him atone at Ma table. 'pan your Ex
cellency give me live minutes' time?' I mid with
toy heart in My mouth. ' Yea, surely, sir ,? align he, he, pointing to the other chair, 'will yea plttse to

" Ito said, calmly, 'The times are altered.'
" 'Et nos rnutemur in says I. Times and

" ' You bad some business with trio?' he asked.
".' Am I speaking to the Commander-in• Chief or
thy old friend I asked.
" Ile looked, at the grately. Well—to both,
sir. Prat aft, Houk.'
" ' If to general Washington, I tell hls Excel

I 'peak to my old friend. I have to say that ho has
shown me very little of trust or friendship for the
last few weeks ; and that I have no desire to sit at
vonr table, and hate impertinent remarks made
iv others there of thC tray in which his Excellency
turns his hack on me.'
" Which charge shall I take first Harry ? I be
asked, turning his chair away from the table, and
crossing his loge as If ready for a talk. ' Yon arc
jealous, as I gather, about the marquis?'
" 'Jealous, sir P says I; • an aklde-oamp of ?dr.
Wolfe Is not jealous of a jack.a.dandr who, live
years ago, Wes being whipped at school
' You yourself declined hither rank than that
which you held,'- says the, Chief, turning a *tie
red.
"'Rut I rioter bargained to have ti Macarohi

one, carry the young entleman'n orders ; and since
Congress and '9llk . .ltycellency chocses to take your

leave to resign and retire to my plantation.'
" ' Do, Harry ; that it true friendship !' says the
Chief, with a gentleness that surprised me. ' Now
that your old friend is in a difficulty 'Ns softly the
beet time to leave him."
" ' Sir!' says I.
" ' Do as so many of the roll ere doing: Mr. War

and you and other gentlemen disapprove IL'
" I hate spoken for cejself, air,i says I,

your previous sneolloo.'•
4' Being no that tone, sir.' says I. teL me re

And I rise up and crtiltehtslatriellenoy a bow. -
Omit Heavens, Harry!' he felcut—fahoUt this
Matquis'a appointment, ha wet beaten, that was
the fact, and he could not reply to me)---' can't you
bellovo that in this critical time of our affairs there
aro reasons why special favors should he shown to

us?,
" !No doubt, sir. If your Excellency acknow -
ledge.s that Monsieur do Lafayette's merita have
notblig to do with the question.
eacknowledge or deny nothing, sir !' rap
the General, with a stamp of Ms foot, and looking
as though ho could bo terribly angry if he would.
'Am I hero to be catechised by you? Stay. Mirk,
Harry! I creek to you eon man or the world--
nay, as an old friend. This appointment humill
ales you and others, you say? Be it so! Must
we not bear humiliation along with other burdens
and griefs for the Bake of our country? It is no
more Just, perhaps, that the Marquis should besot
over you gentlemen than that your Prince Ferdi
nand or ;our Prince of Wales at home should have
a command over veterans. But if in appointing '
this young nobleman we please a whole nation, and
bring ourselves twenty millions of Mlle'', will you
and other gentlemen sulk because we do him
nor? 'Tie easy to sneer at him (though,
believe me, the him - pais hes ninny more merite
than you allow him;) to my mind it were more
generous as well as more polite of Harry Warring
ton to welcome this stranger for the sake of the
prodigious benefit our country may draw from
him—not to laugh et his peculiarities, but to aid '
him and help Lis ignorance by your experience a '
an old soldier; that is what I would do—that it
the part I expected of thee—for it is the generous
and the manly one, Harry; but you choose to join
my enemies, and when I am in trouble you soy you
.will leave me. That is why I have been hurt—
that is why I have been cold. I thought I might
count on your friendship—and—end you can tell
whether I was right or no. I relied on you as on
a brother, and y on come and tell me you will re
sign. Be it so! Being embarked in this contest,
by God's will I will see it to an end. You 'ire
not the first, Mr. Warrington, has left me on the
way.'
!! lie spoke with so much tenderness. and as ho
spoke his face wore such a look of tinhappinem,
that an extreme remorse and pity seized me, and
I palled out I know not what Incoherent expres
sions regarding old times, and vowed that, if be
would say the word, 1 never would leave him.
YOu never loved Lim, George,' says my brother,
turning to me. 'but I did beyond all mortal men
and. though I am not clever like you. I think my
instinct was in kke right. He has a greatness not
approached by other men—'
4' don't say no, brother,' said I, 'now.'
!!!Greatness, pooh !' says the Parson, growling
over hie wino.
We walked into Mrs. Washington's tea-room
arm in arm,' Hal resumed; she looked up quite
kind and saw we were friends. 'ls it all over,
Colonel Harry ?' she whispered. 'I know ho has
applied ever so often about your promotion—'
‘• never will take it,' says I. And that is
how I came to do penance,' says Harry, telling me
the story. with Lafayette the next winter.' (Hal
could imitate the Frenchman very well.) ' I will
go weez keent,' says I. ' I know the way to Que
bec, and when wo are not in 'nation with Sir
Guy, I can hear his Excellency the Major General
slay his lemon.' There was no fight, you know;
we could get no army to net in Caned a, and re
turned to headquarters; and what do you think
disturbed the Frenchman most? The Idea that
people would laugh at him. because his command
haul come to nothing. And SO they did faun at
him, and almost to hie Noe, too, and who could help
it '+ IT our chief had any weak point it was this
Marquis.
• After our little difference we became as great
friends as before—if a man may he said to bo
friends with a sovereign prince, for as such I some
how could not help regarding the General ; and one
night when we bad sate the company out, wo
talked of old times, and the jolly days of sport we
had together,
both before and after Braddock's;
and that pretty duel you were near having when we
were boys. o laughed about it, and said he never
ease a man look more wicked and more bent on kill
ing
p
than you did • And to do Sir George justice, I
think he has hatede ever since, ' says the Chief.
Ah !' he added, 'open onemyr can face readily
enough. 'Tie the secret foe who causes the doubt
and anguish ! We have sat with more than ono
at my table to-day to whom I em obliged to
show a face of civility, whose hands I must take
'when they are offered, though I know they are
etabhing my reputation, and are eager to pull
me down from my place. Yon spoke but lately
of being humiliated became a junior was set over
you in command. What humiliation is yours
compared to mine, who have to play the farce of
welcome to these traitors ; who have to bear the
neglect of Congress, and see men who have insult
ed me promoted in my own army? If I consulted
my own feelings as a man. would I continue in this
command? You know whether my temper is na
turally warm or not, and whether as a private gen
tleman I should be likely to suffer such slights end
outrages as are put upon me doily; but in the ad
vancement of the snared cause in which we are en
gaged wo have to endure net only hardship and
danger, but calumny and wrong, and may God
give us strength to (lo our duty !' And then the
General showed me the papers regarding the affair
of that fellow Conway, whom Congress promoted
in spite of the intrigue, and down whose black
throat John Cadwalader sent the best ball he ever
fired in his life.
• And it was here,' said Hal, concluding his
story, as I looked at the Chief talking at night ln
the silence of the camp, and remembered how lone
ly he wan; what an awful responsibility ho carried;
how spies and traitors were eating out of his dish,
and an enemy lay in front of hint who might at any
time overpower him, that I thought, Sure this is
the greatest man now in the world; and what a
wretch I em to think of my jealousies anal annoy
arms, while ho is walking serenely under his inn
«tense cares!' "

Tho following scrap of hintory in the Binhom
tm Democrat of Oetobor 13, from the Ideality and
the personal familiarity with the relations of the
treat men named leach Is exhibited in the com
ment is ascribed by the Beath Commercial to the
Fit of Daniel 8. Dickinson:
" Among the (3500030 f estrangement between Mr.
Clay and Uen. Taylor, and probably the great and
final one, was this—Mr. Clay, it may be remem
bered, bad a non inhumanly butchered at Buena
Vista in the Mexican war, That eon left a widow
and a promising, Manly boy, of tome sixteen or
oventeen years. This boy . was anxious to be ap
pointed a cadet at West Point and receive a milita
ry education, and his request was warmly seconded
by his mother and his grandfather, Henry Clay,
Henry Clay thereupon wrote to Mr. Polk, then
President and his successful rival for the station,
requesting the appointment of his grandion as a
cadet at large. 01r. Polk at once ordered hinuame
to be placed on the list for impointinent, and it was
done; but governor Marcy, then Secretary
of ; Wtir, upon the examination usual in such
cities, found that' ho wee below the requi
site ego to enter the academy, and the rides
of the War Department were too imperative to be
changed'. and his name was not, for that reason,
lent to the ;Senate. Mr. Polk, however; placed on
the idea of the War Department letter, Under his
own hand, detailing the oiroristanime. and re-.
questing his successor, whoever be might be, to tip
potntyoung Clay, who, In the first year of the then
next Administration, would ho of sufficient age.
General Taylor. a political friend of Mr. Clay,
proved to be hie successor. The list of cadets is
usually prepared by the Secretary of War. and
corrected by the President, and, in making tip the
list under General Taylor's Administration, Mr.
Crawford, his recretary of War, placed young
name at the bend of the list. General 'Tay
lor, when he came to review the list, Struck out the
name with his own 'bend, and refused to appoint
him. This strange act Was' never_ forgotten-nor
forgiven by Henry Clay. and it la believed both,
parties died without any change in their-relations.
tt When general Taylor'e death wall ennonnced
in the Senate, and Mr. Weimer, general Cats, and
others pronounced eulogies apse his aliaracter ; Mr:
Clay, on being beckoned to rise. waited his timid
significantly and remained silent."

KICKED ADAl7f.—The correspondent of the St.
Louie Republican, the leading Democratic Journal
of Missouri, wilting from Washington, thus speaks
of the Washington Constitution:
'; The editor of the Constitution, Brigadier•fien•
end George Washington Bowman, is rendering
himself the butt of the community bore by his silly
attacks upon Washington correspondents.' Of
course, every ono can perceive the motive which
prompts the impotent blow, but there is no one
who has sufficient respect for the organ-grinder'
to pity his imbecility. Poor old man' The fable
of the frog attempting the proportions of the ox is
vividly brought to mind. The editor of a little
one-horse Pennsylvania paper attempting journal
ism in Washington! The result is, the organ' Is
rend by only a few hundred persons, and they re
gard it se below contempt. Bowman's ignorance
in only equalled by his impudence and disregard
for truth."
lowa.—The Chicago Times thinks Kirkwood,
Rep , has been elected Governor of lowa by from
five to six hundred majority, but that the reat of
the Democratic State ticket is elected.
THE VOTE IN Onto.—The Democrats have been
beaten in Ohio ; but nevertheless they have made
a handsome gain on the vote of last year. Then
thti Republicans carried the State by twenty thou
sand majority ; this Is now reduced to fifteen thou
sand at least, although the Columbus Democratic
print says that the returns, so far as received, indi
cate but a trifle, if any, over twelve thousand. The
Cincinnati Inquirer, in commenting upon the re
sult of the election, shows that the Democrats have
certainly lost nothing, even if they have not suc
ceeded with their ticket.
ANECDOTE or Ma. FILLMORD.—The Boston Eve
ning Gazette is responsible for tho following anec
dote. The Gazette's commentary on it is, " What
is fame ?" Ours simply is, what a stupid post
office clerk :
Clerks in post offices aro generally pretty well
posted up in political matters, but a case happened
recently which is rather amusing. Ex-President
Fillmore was stopping at a small place, and had
occasion to send a letter by hie servant to the vit.
lage post office. It was franked—all ex-Presidents
haring that privilege: The bearer dropped it in,
hut the official caught it up, and, glancing at the
frank, exclaimed : " Who the deuce. is I.
V Why, he's the ex-President," replied
the messenger. " P'rapsho is, my friend, but Vs°
voted for all tbo Presidents since General Jackson,
and I'll be hanged if I recollect any such a name.
I guess you'll have to try it on at some other place,
for we read history down here—we do." What is

Dun COLONEL : As I see you oceasionally inform
your reader's of the value of faring, he , in different
parts of the country, allow !no to inform you of
a one sales recently made in this part of the Union.
Thu " Clayton Farm," containing 346 acres, sit
uated about throe miles from Dover, was bought,
not long since, by Henry Stout, Eeq , for $lO.OOO.
It was not in good condition--no barn, old house,
and indifferent fenoes.
Moro recently, the "Long Point" farm, two
milea from Dover, :300 acres of arable land, was
bought by George Parris, Esq., for .$30,000. It is
in good condition—good house, barn, and fences.
The Frazer Farm," in Little Creek Neck, five
miles from Paver, containing about 230 aoreP, was
taken by the oldest heir at the valuation of $15,000,
who has since been offered $14,000, or more, for it.
The land is in good condition; buildings valued at
$2,800.
The improvement In the mode of farming and
in the farms, in this county, is equal, it not beyond
that of any county in the Union, and the price of
land has gone up according:y.
Several of your cifisenr_ have bought farms here.
and are improving them finely.
Our wheat crop this year averages nearly twenty
bushels to the acres, and our corn will probably
average forty bushels. Some fields of wheat yielded
thirty bushels to the ' sore, and some of corn will
reach sixty. Wheat is selling at $1.25 to $1.50 per
bushel, and new corn will probably bring 60 cents
per bushel.

The President of tho United States does not read
Col. Forney's paper, see are informed, and cares
nothing what is said of hint in its columns. There
lo abundant proof that this is not ea. Mr. Bucha
nan certainly takes pains to know what his old
friend has to soy of him. Not long after the anti-
Lecompton outbreak, the President stopped his
paper, but did not, we believe, pay the printer.
Recently the telegraph informed ns that the Presi
dent was about to sue Forney for libel, because he
(F.) Inquired whether the arch-traitor to Demo
cratic principles (Mr. Buchanan) could say that his
bands were free from the heart's blood of Senator
Broderick. Next we heard that no such libel suit
was thought of. The President was not even an
noyed. The Washington Constitution of Satur
day evening last, however. contains an article on
the death of Broderick, which shows how cruelly
the shot of Forney struck in the White House cir
cle, and penetrated the cuticle of James IV, there
installed. The Constitution quotes from The
Press, and hopes the present is " the last time
where the liberty of the press and free speech may
ho perverted to serve such base purposes."

Robert Stephenson's convalescence is incorrect. He

with the American Chamber of Commence in that
loge in reference to the frequent admixture of
sand, dirt, and stones, with the cotton received

The unexpeoted departure of Lord Cowley for
Biarritz is believed by some persons in Paris to
have for its motive certain arrangements to be made
with the French Government with respect to the
Chinese expedition, but it appears probable that,
independently of this, the Italian question may
heve something to do with the journey.
The l'atrie believes itself correct in stating that
the Mediterranean squadron has received orders to
put to sea immediately, but is unacquainted with
the object and duration of the expedition.
It is said that three new regiments of ZonaYes
are to be created for the expedition to China. Vo
lantery enlistment, it is thought, will go far tee
werdseomposing them, but draughts will also be
mule from regiments of the line. It is further
stated that a portion of the French troops intended
for China will embark at Marseilles for Egypt, and
be 'conveyed thence to their destination in British
