Authors and Actors—Charles Lever.
When David Garrick died, Dr. Johnson
eald, with an affectionate hyperbole character- '
istic of the man and the time, ct The gaiety of
nations is eclipsed." Garrick had passed from
the'mimetic stage some years before, but the
.00Mplintent was not uudeeerved. 'I he memory
of his great histrionic ability remained—all
that _the ablest Actor can 'achieve, however
admired in life, is to have a tradition of his
eacelteece still kept •in men's minds, still
handed down upon the printed page—a record
actually more indestructible than marble or
brass, the bust or the statue. If, on the stage,
the great actor often receives what may be
considered too much applause; it the great
Actor's pecuniary gain be much more than, in
most cases, hiriaelitemPoraries obtain by other
'ptofessiope, which require higher education
and inere_constant toil, ic time, at last, sets all
things lied brings. round,hi ire course,
Efuffitient compensation. _
The book which the Atithoe_eiriteil aur

'sire of being remembered, as. Byron proudly
anticipated, .with his land's language,
While of the ACtor's consummate art
there tie preserved but a mere recollection,
sometimes but a mere tradition, and that
Mainly through what the Author has written
of him. There is the case of Bazlitt and
Kean—the, Kean, we mean, and not that
elaborate and skilful imitator; his son. When
Kean appeared at Drury Lane Theatre, as
'Bl9/ocfe, in January, 1.814,, (where, under the
slights which he received from a'knot of en
vious perforiners behind the scenes, he would
have tailed but for his possessing the irrepres
eihility of genius,) there sat in the pit a pale,
nervous man, the critic. of the Morning
Chronicle, William B.aslitt by name. The
performance ended, Haetitt went back to his
office, and hastily wrote a critique upon thd
new man's acting, in which he told London
bow and why Kean had greatly succeeded.
Years passed on, during which the actor pro
bably was paid about $80;000 a Year,
,and the
wrltet rarely received more than $1,51141 for a
year'ii labor. Kean died in 1833 and Haan
in 1830. Both died poor. , • But how stands
the account' between them and - fame ? Roan
is remembered traditionally, partty through
that discriminating, hastily written criticism
in the Morning Chrontele; and Heinle, the
earnings Of whose whole literary life did not
reach what Kean so easily won in a single
year, belongs to the world as one of the best
• writers of the Georgian era. Think, therefore,
oh ! hard:working man of letters, that if those
who merely amuse obtain great payment and
much applause from the public whom they
entertain, those who instruct are heirs, how
ever late their succession-may take place; to
the enduring and loftier fame which grateful
readers frankly accord through a long succes
sion of future years.
When Author or Actor dies, a gap seems
Made in Society. Less when the Actor
passes away, because his imitative skill is of a
meaner quality , than the creative art of the
Author. Less, too, because though the Actor
may personally win plandits—sometimes tears,
sometimes smiles—from thousands and tens of
thousands who see him in public, he is far
less known; after all, than the popular author.

REMEDY
part of the literary history of the world ; his
literary remains are collected, preserved, ed
ited, and - published. We are old enough to
recollect how, in England, when news came
that Byron had died, untimely, at the age of
thirty-six (the age, too, when Robert Burns
died), all hearts were moved into tendernesa
and regret, and young and old felt as if a na
tional loss had been sustained. What a sud
den sadness shadowed the public mind when
Scott's death took place; WllOll 066 par, and,
more lately, Prescott, Irving, and Macaulay !
The Man of Letters, who has done his work
well ; is missed, while - the departed Actor
passes away, with Falstaff's fatal alacrity in
sinking, into comparative oblivion.
We have fallen into this train of reflection
in conacquence of having seen the following
paragraph in a London .paper, the Illustrated
News of the World, of A.pril27 :
The inimitable Harry Lorreguer has gone to
that booms whence no traveller returns ; Charles
Lever, the delight of young gogliainnen who love
adventure, is dead. He had bean in 311 health for'
sometime past. His last appearance as an author
was in the columns of All the Year Bound, in
which he last year published his serial--" A Day's
Ride, a Life's Romance) ) Hundreds of _private
friends will moan his loss. Charles r Lever had a
happy knack of limiting and exalting the frivoli
ties of life, which almost approached genius. Be
lived an active and a useful life, and was univer
sally beloved by all who knew him. This is trite
praise, bat it is our bounden duty to accord it to
his memory.
It is singular that this information, which
the London journalist gives editorially, we
have been unable to find in The Times and
other English newspapers. It is given here:
however, with 80 much -positiveness, se a fact,
that we fear it is so.
Charles Lever, whom many of his readers
may have taken to be a gay and dashing young
fellow, would have completed his fifty-fifth
year had he lived until the last day of August.
Ile was born in 1806, being one year younger
than Bnlwer, Disraeli, and Thackeray, and
SOMA five years older than Dickens. Born in
Dublin, he was partially educated there, and.
partly at Gottingen. His father was a wealthy
builder in Dublin. Destined for the medical
profession, ne partly studied in Paris, and the
foreign education included a familiar acquaint
ance with the language and literature of Ger
many, Italy, and France. In /M, when the
cholera decimated Ireland, Dr. Lever was put
in charge of, a district including the city of
Londonderry and the towns of Coleraine and
Newtown-Limavady, and his reaetiee is said
to have been very successful.
Some years later, he was appointed Physi
cian to the British Embassy, at Brussels, where
he wrote his tirst book, The Confessions of
Harry Lorreqffer," in.. which he exhibited won.
derful knowledge of Irish character, a rapid
slap-dash manner of describing adventures and
evolving character, and absolutely unequalled
power of putting a vast amount of animal
spirits upon paper. His success induced him
to devote himself wholly to authorship, in
which few, in our time, have been so slICCOBB•
fill. In 1842, he undertook the editorship of
the Dublin University Magazine, and resided
in Dublin for some time. But with a large
share of the Irish intellect, and even more
than the usual quantity of Irish genius, Charles
Lever had a full development of the Irish taste
for show and expense. He was utterly reck
less about money, and, while' editing the Ma
gazine, in Dublin, (the actual labor being per
formed by Mr. James Me6lashen,) lived so
extravagantly that be speedily had to retreat.
Since 184 e, be resided on the Continent,
chiefly at Florence; - and - It - was said that he
owed a large _bill at the principal hotel in
moat. of,the great cities , of Europe. • Over a
year ago, Lord Palmeraton appointed him
British Consul at Spezzia, in the Sardinian do
minions, with _a seamy of .8-260 a year. Ile
held WS pace at his, death, but his income,
which was Inge, was almost wholly derived
from his pen
A prolific pen It was. From 1886 to the
prelent time; Charles Lever has produced al

them would be to give a long list. Among
the best are "Charles O'Malley," "Jack
Hinton," (s Maurice Tierney," (c Roland
Cashel," and 4 ( The Knight of Gwynne."
His three last works, "Davenport Dann,"
with the late John Sadlier for its hero I "One
of Thom," in which American Characters and
Scenery are introduced; and -4( A. Day's
Ride," in which the leading personage travels
largely and strangely through Europe, show
no decay of power, but certainly much change
of manner. He had been called "The Prince
of Neck' or-Nothing Novelists," but, of late
years, trusted more to character endless to ad
venture. The character of Sir Horace Upton,
In (‘ The Fortunes of Glendora," and of Da
venport Dunn, are drawn with great delicacy
as well as truth. It mattered little where
Lever placed his characters—he was never
at fault •in describing localities, as may be
seen by his "Con Grogan, or the Irish
Gil Blas," where he shifts his hero from South
America to Spain, thence to Italy, Paris, and
Ireland—making him equally at home in each
place. "The Dodd Family Abroad," con
taining the history of an Irish Squireen's fa
mily•tour in Europe, with their adventures
anti misadventures, is perfectly unsurpassed
in its keen and pleasant satire, lie knowledge
of Eniopean society, and• its thorongh expo- .

of Irish character. .
We can scarcely realize that Charles Lever
is dead. There seemed so much vitality of
mind and body about that gifted and genial
man. ! Taken away, too, in the prime of life.
He has left a wilb and family, for whom, it is
to be feared, he left no provision.' This adds
to the regret. But Lever will live—for non
onnti.7 -moriar—in the brilliant and fascinating
works which his rich fancy and creative faculty
have united to bequeath to the world.

before the eastern front to the south gate, but on
inquiry learned that I could not do so without a
pass. "'Tie too bad'." I muttered, angrily, " to.
have to so all the way around!" Just then a
fieroe-looking Zonave stepped up. "Tow want to ;
get through here?" said he " Indeed I I
replied. " Come with me, then," he oried, seising
me roughly by the coat, and dragging me after
him, " I'll put you through ;" and before I knew
it, or could oppose it, he darted with me through
the ...writ _over into the mud, and
we reached the other side in - forteryimsmas—.s...

said, we are great cronies. He is a type of his
fellows, loves a glace, a girl, or a row, don't care
for expenses, and " Is bound to be a hero, by the
jingo, or ale!"
•, He tells me a good story of how his associates got
a mess of fish, with which they regaled themselves.
The hero of the occasion ie one Champ, one of the
wildest of the rattle-brains. Champ found out, by
some Malls or other, that on the oppoeite Bide of
the river there was an old fellow selling tff a lot
of fine fish at exorbitant prices, assisted by, an
agent on this side. To the latter of these he ep
plied for a quantity wide& he well knew could not
be supplied without sending the boat einem for •
fresh load. It so happened that the agent had just
traded boats (little river battens.) with a neighbor
long.boatman_ A bright idea instantly crossed
Champ's cranium. 41 Suppose you let me go over
for them," says he The agent reflected, conei
dared how a refusal might fall heavily on him, and
eensented. Chomp bounced in, took up the oars
and plied over the waters to the fith-house, where
he offered to trade hie battean, that being its first
trip, and it being unknown to the fishmonger of
the Virginia shore, for molt a quantity of fish, pro
vided he would allow him to land them Snit near
the Georgetown viaduct. The grasping and un
suspecting dealer, delighted with the bargain,
agreed, packed the little vessel, and sent Champ
(with a negro boy, to return with the boat,) to die
appointed spot, where he received the fish, hired a
oart, and safely , reached "camp," leaving the
diesoomilted fish-dealer to team the deception too
late for reparation.
That is the way they carry on," these &maces!
Here comes one of them now. Bee how briskly,
boldly, and blithely he treads—how hie gay jacket,
lined with dazzling Soarlat, dies about as the wind
strikes against it—how his frills and trimmings
dangle. On my life ! he is kissing his band to nay
neighbor's wife ! Was ever such assurance seen
before? Now he is joined by a gay trio, who have
been taking a " nip" of brandy and water with
neat door's girl, and her two pretty cousins from
the eountry, at the corner pump. Odds, blushes,
and blooms, bow proudly those girls flaunted back
in-doors'. "Devilish handsome, oh ?" says one of
the Zottaves, loud enough to be heard. " Dem
me," responds another, " why nowt a man marry
ti dozen :" Whereupon the party take a little
comfort over the remaining "drop," and drink to
the halcyon days when all pumps shall run wine.

Br. Lours, May 7, Mil.
Agreeably to orders emanating from his Ruh
lenoyi Gov. Jaokeon, the arming of the State of
Missouri commenced yesterday. As many as 750
men entered camp last night, amid all the pomp
and circumstance of war! The brave militia of this
State; as every Union man must have observed,
impressed all who witnessed the " turn out" with
a profound motion of the Strength of our Plate
soldiery. .
Prechsely at nine o'clock two companies com
menced forming on Washington avenue, and a few
DA UM later Gept Wert's Missouri Guards"
marched through Fourth street to join the regi
ment: There were no flags flying, nor even a band
to dilloottrse aoul-stirring music. A squeaking fife,
and two or three drums, made alt the noise.
Orowde of idle people lined the avenue for nearly a
while the comic uniforms of the soldiers
mad lots of fun for the boys. It was without
doubt the lamest attempt to muster recruits our

tier from the invasion of that awful chap, Mont
gomery and his band, arrived and entered camp.
This.will be a heavy addition Probably there
are es many as IN men left, all told, and this so.

This arming the State, to use a common expres-

coati however, will amount to quite a sum before
we are through with it I thought yesterday,
when I saw the long line of railroad wagons laden
with tents, provisions, dcc , going to the tented
field, if the cost of these could only be used for
purehasing blankets for the soldiers at the arsenal,
it would be a blessed thing, indeed.

Any attempt to take the arsenal now will be use
less, nor do I believe the Minute Men have any in'
tention of doing so. -

having asked the H artford Courant who wrote the
words generally sung to 'the tune of 0 America,"
thei following reply was returned
a The Rev. S. 10. Smith, of Newton, Mau , the
author of America,' and also of the beautiful mis
sionary hymn commencing, Yes, my native land,
I love thee,' and several 'otnera of great merit.
Mr, Smith la a graduate of Harvard University, an
accanuplished scholar, and a most amiable and at
tractive man. He was for several years pastor of
the Baptist Church in Newton Centre, Mass., but
now engaged, I believe, in literary and religious
pursuits of a more private nature. He preaches
occasionally with great actieptanoe "
OUR attention has been. directed to the fact
that when the South Carolina commieeioners were
at!Washington attempting to negotiate with the
late Administration for the surrender of Fort
Sumpter, that Mr. Jefferson Davis, then a Senator
of the United States, cautioned them that an at•
tat* upon the fort would be equivalent to a decla
ration of war. The same Jefferson Davis nOrr en
deavors to excite sympathy and resentment by
representing the Government as making war upon
the seceded States.

following points
1. What States are now considered - loyal to the
United States Government.

To Bon. Samuel B. Btrst. President of the
Central (rommatee, 'c.:4 -
Dean SIR : I have the honor to submit the fol
lowing. as my reply to the questions propounded
to me in your letter of the first instant.
let. All the Northern States, and the States of
Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Missouri; as
States, may now be considered loyal to the Go
vernment of the United States, although it is very
evident that in the four States mentioned there
are many disloyal citizens. By virtue of the pro
clamation of the 19th of April, the Prisident of the
United States has already placed all the ports in
the States of South Carolina, Georgia, Florida,
Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas under
blockade; and by the proclamation of the Presi
dent, issued on the 27th of April, 1981, the ports in
the State of Virginia and North Carolina are also
under blockade. There can, therefore, be no com
mercial intercourse with any of those States by
the pedple of the United States or of any other
nation.
2d. The following Articles are contraband .of
war : All gold and silver coin ; all cheeks or bills
of exchange for money ; all articles of food, cloth
ing, and materials for the manufacture of ilethiag
all rifle, pistol, musket, and cannon balls and
shells; gunpowder, and all materials used In Its
manufacture • all ammunition and munitions and
implements of war of every description ; all books
of military education ; all saddles, harness, and
trappings for flying artillery, fi eld and staff anions,
and cavalry troops; all horaer ; all gun carriages;
all timber.for ship building; all kinds of naval
stores ; all engines, boilers, and machinery for
boats; alt losornotive engines and ears for rail
ii-cgid be useful to the enemy wiarr""•• — • h tel!
3d. Inasmuch as there aro niany-individtlale in
the States of Kentucky and . Tpnnessee. and other
States in tho valley of the Mississippi, who openly '
wmpathize with the armed, insurrectionists of the
oath ; and inasmuch as there is a direct 09&01 1 / 1 1-
vication by rail or by water between the rebellious
States of the South and those States not yet In
open rebellion to the Government of the. United
States, it is obviously improper to permit any anti
oleo pegondly above enumerated, whose Wm/Irate
destinatiOn may reach the rebel forces, to be for
warded to those States; for, although some of those
articles might be - there used for lawful purposes,
yet all of them might be diverted from those pur
poses, and applied to the aid and comfort of the
enemy.
It may be well for me to say, that all persons
anywhere in the United Stater, as those in States
which pretend to have receded from the Union,
whether they be vendors, brokers, manufaoturers,
merchants, shippers, express agents orfreighters,
who make or send forward any oe those articles
to the rebel forces, incur alike the penalty of trea
son, and must be dealt with accordingly.
Very respectfully, yours. '
