The constant demand for the high-priced English edi

(ow figure, to the very hest sty In. The Memoir is es
delltlitlul and witty no that of Sydney Small, and MUM
excite the game attention. It contains anecdotes of
Theodor. Hook. Tent Hood, Sydney Dinith, Canning,
George IV, and other colehreted characters. Any criti
eitifl would be superfluous of the poems whose wit end
originali(y have attracted such witlelb extended notice.
Come were interestinr on account of the notoriety of
their subject or their bearing on the gossip of the day ;
but all aro animat , d with n spirit of fun, and an nn
flatting humor, that IT 'flattens° unbounded popularity.
The author's dieting Mulling trait is his mint:ailed power
in rhythm, and the flow and fertility of hie versification.
His satire tg always well directed, and oceasionally a
Jew touches display a dillerent and lusher order of poem
power, standing out in contrast witb the ludicrous min
gory that surrounds them, The Henan, gives an
amusing sketch of his intitnaoy with Theodore Hook,
and soma anecdotes of by tug persons aro ridded to the

Diplomatists. i
That England has accepted NAPOLIOIie in
vitation to attend a Congress, at which; only
the affairs of
,central Italy shall be considered
and adjusted, is a act. It remainal. o
b tleen
whether, as is rumored ,' England has ade
.cli
it anu qua nos that the Italian Duehte shall
be left wholly free to choose their own ers.
With . us it 'Nfetuld"app'eir singular tha any
doubt could exist upon this point, b oar,
habits, constitution, and aspirations are 'dell.
different from those of European n one.
With us the Sovereignty of the People is the.
a i l,
rule ; with Europe it is the exception. mace
wo see European nations governed b mo
narchs, who may be good, as in VIOT ain's
case, but more generally are weak or w eked,
as in tho cases of FRARCiII Joszstr, of A trio,
or FRANCIS, of Naples. What is call the
law of Legitimacy prevalla in Euro By
virtue of this, primogeniture has be n es
tablished, whereby the title and the pr pert"
deiceina to theeidest son, 'and the of
various nations are inee.upled by Panibr offs,
only claim is that their ancestors sati upon
them before. Literally, the rule prevails that,
to be—
"The tenth transmitter of some foolish face "
is a very honorable and dignified position.
The Peerages and the Monarchies of Europe
are hereditary, on this rule. Thus the Count
de Cuemsoan claims the crown of France,
because his Bourbon ancestors wore It, and
the Count de MosvEsterds puts in the same
claim, upon the same grounds, for the crown
of Spain.
Lord PALMERSTON, who has talked a great
deal about Italian liberty, has dances little for
it as most men, thereby exemplifying the
proverb which speaks of (c Great cry twirl little
wool." He was Foreign Minister in 1848-49,
when We contest for liberty was being 'carried
on in Italy, and had he willed it then, that
country might have been free ten yeais ago.
It was Mr. GLADSTONE, a Peelite, if not ac
tually a Tory, who aroused the indignation of
Europe by boldly exposing the bloody and
lawless manner in which King Bouea was
trying to crush the life out of the Neapoli
tans. At the present crisis we do not expect
much from Lord Pauniesroy in aid of Italian
independence, and it may be as well, Perhaps,
that he does not personally attend the Con
gress on behalf of England.
Lord Jome RIMEL', made such a terrible
mess of his mission to Vienna, in 1853, where
ho was humbugged on all sides, that a uni
versal shout of laughter would be echoed
throughout Europe at any proposition to send
him, incapable as he is, to represent England
at the Congress. He is understood to Veto the
appointment of Lord Ctaaasnos, ex-Foreign
Minister, of whose superior ability he is jealous.
Lord Jouy (who would be the merest nobody
but for the accident of birth which made him
a Duke's eon) has the liveliest faith In his own
ability, and, no doubt, thinks that he, of all
others, is the man to go to the Congress on
behalf of England. Lord Gaanvuzz, another
Cabiuet Minister, leas been talked cf—but his
sympathies are supposed to he with the Papal
party in Italy, which would make his appoint
ment unacceptable to England.
Lord Coleus', English Ambassador at Paris,
will probably be one of the men, but he ranks
nowhere as a Statesman, and stands Very low
as a diplomatist. He must be backed up by
an abler and more astute man, who, it is said,
has. been found in the person of Sir Janes
Hums, who represented England at the Court
of Tuscany for several years, and is well ac
quainted with the position and requirements of
the inhabitants of Central Italy.
What is called .4 the chapter of accidents"
has been so curiously illustrated in the per
sonal history of Sir Janes Henson, that it may
amuse eur readers to know bow he has got on.
Younger son of a Yorkshire gentleman of mo
derate estate, he received a good education as
almost his only patrimony. He went to Rugby
School, and thence to Westminster, after
which ho was sent to learn French at Pads,
and Italian at Rome. He returned to England
at the age of fifteen, and, owing to family In
fluence, (his mother being a daughter of the
first Marquis Towenizsn,) was appointed page
of honor to GEORGE IV, in which position,
though <, notang to do " was the main busi
seas of his post, he made friends. On the ac
cession of WILLIAM IV, In June, 1830, Sir
HERBERT TA.TLOR, his Majesty's private sec
retary, had so much to do that he solicited aid,
and Queen ADELAIDE, who took a lively in
terest in young Ilunsoy, recommended that he
be appointed assistant private secretary to the
King. Ile held this confidential post until
Juno, 1837, when the King died. In Novem
ber, 1831, when he attained the age of twenty
one, he was also mado resident gentleman
usher to Queen ADELAIDE.
Mr. Ilimaoe might have remained all his life
at Court, without ever obtaining the slightest
celebrity or notoriety, but for a political
event, which brought him prominently before
the world, in rather an odd manner. In NOTem
ber,lB34, two years after the Reform Bill was
enacted, WILLIAM IV, whose liberalism, like
Bob Acre's courage, had oozed out at his fin
gers' ends, gladly availed himself of Lord
Ammer's going up to the House of Lords,
on the death of his father, to tell Lord
MELBOURNE, the Prime Minister, that he be
lieved the Government could not be carried
on without ALTHORP as Chancellor of the
Exchequer—a position which, as its occu
pant has to propose the taxes, could not be
held by any but a member of the House of
Commons. The Melbourne Ministry were sud
denly dismissed, and England soon knew at
whose Instigation, for in the Time, of the
next morning, the fact was announced,
(generally believed to have been communi
cated by Lord BROUGHAM,) with the emphatic
addition : , c The Queen has done it all," which
raised a tide of unpopularity against her
Majesty which ebbed and flowed during the
remainder of her life, but never wholly retired.
The King sent for the Duke of WELLINGTON CO
form a Ministry, but dt the Iron Duke " de
clined, strongly recommending that Sir
ROBERT PEEL should be so authorized. At
that time the Duke was in his sixty-sixth year,
and Part. was some twenty years younger.
The difficulty was that PEEL, not dreaming
of any such unexpected casualty as the dis
missal of the Melbourne Ministry, had gone to
Italy with his wife, and was not expected back
in London until the end of the coming January,
ten weeks distant. Wattiaoros maintained,
and the King believed, that Pm was the only
man to become Head of the Government,:upon
conservative principles, against the Progress
party which had been elevated to great politi
cal powt rby the Reform Bill. 1 t was deter
lidded, therefore, that PEEL should be sent
for, and, with the boldness which character
ized him, WELLINGTON held the Seals during
three weeks, and did all tha business of all the
Ministers who had constituted Melbourne's
Cabinet !
Mr. JAMEA IlutsoN, then a smart young man
of 21, was recommended by Queen AnnamE,
whose gentleman-usher he was, (also being
assistant-secretary to the King), to rush over
to Italy, find PEEL, and Immediately bring him
over. lie started on the 19th November, found
PEEL at Rome, and had him back in London
on the 9th December. Considering that there
was not then a single mile of railway between
London and Rome, and that the distance be
tween these cities is nearly 1,400 miles, here
we have young Ilubsos traversing almost 2,800
miles in twenty days—a teat of mere physical
endurance, ‘Olett one recollects`how bad, in
Mid-winter, are most of the public roads in
Europe, and how much worse they were when
cut up by constant'travel before Railwayism
changed the system and annihilated time and
•
space.
Iluesoa's expeditious travel, at a critical
-period, was borne in memory by Queen
Annatex, In compliance with whose request,

SAD .OGTAIDL or IL D. PAGE, " Dow, Jo."-31r.
Eldridge Gerry Page, better known by the nom
Jr plume of "Dow, Jr.," over which signature be
hut written several years in this and Attend* al,
tied, committed suicide yesterday afternoon, as it
is supposed, by taking poison in the form of ar
senic. This event took place In his room, in the
second story of a small and miserable boise, on the
north side of Pacific street, a few doors above
Kearny. About five o'clock, one of the women of
the house was attracted to his room by an unusual
notes there, and found the enterer either on the
door or on the bed, struggling , and in a very weak
:audition, and calling for water to &amazes his
burning thirst. He had been just taken iIL She
obtained the water in a tin, but he was too weak to
tilt it to his mouth, and spilled it upon the floor,
trod this be did so often as she brought it to him,
until the floor was flooded, and his own and the
bed clothes saturated. He died in painful convul
sions goon" after. The room and house is of a
wretched character, and Mr. Page appears to have
lived there In a miserable manner.. Meowed was
• native of Litchfield, Conn., and aged about forty.
three years. He was an old printer is well as
writer, and In both capacities had been known, in
New York and elsewhere, for above twenty years.
More than that time ago he is known to hare been
employed in the printing-office of Messrs. Rest

and used to make no small figure in society. He

whether hers or his we are not informed—the only
one remaining of the two—has been in charge of

earned that the unfortonste man had taken arsenic,
which accounted for the dreadful thirst atteedirg

elarcholy deed we ate unable to speak. Whether

Both partite are resider.ta of 'Weavervitle The
weapons used were navy revolvers, and only one

was shot through both legs just below the knees.

Elyatuar kKR.—St Eve minutes before
one o'clock on Thursday morning, a shark of an
earthquake was felt over the greater part cf the
city. The writer wet conscious of but a siagle
movement. The sensation produced was that of
a heavy body falling against the wall of the
in which he lay, succeeded by a slight qt.•ivering
motion. The motion and sensation together were
rather that of a thump than a shake—a punk in
the side, as a boy would say. It waa rather al
laws seartato than a terra tremor. Some wit.) felt
the stroke thought they perceived two shooks; prc
bably the first was the genuine quake, the other
