Tom Brown at Oxford.*
No book gives anything like half' se good
an idea of public education in England as
"Tom Drown's School Days at Rugby"-the
time of which is the late Dr. Arnold's Maste
rship of that seminary. Centuries baCk, and
largely during the reign of the amiable boy
king, Edward the Sixth, schools • were esta
blished and endowed in various parts pf Eng
land, at which the children of poor residents
were to receive such a plain, good education
as wonld befit yeomen, without paying for it-
In time, the property—usually in hind or
hOnses—appropriated for the endowment 51i .
these grammar schools, as they are cant e r -
came greatly augmented in value.
which was worth five pounds an acre, n,
bought, out-and-out, three hundred. yeareagoy•
is now worth fifty to a hundred guineas per
foot, in some situations, for building pirtbses:
Thus, the revenues of these English Ommar
schools have immensely increased, iu iroast
instances: For example, , Christ's Hospital,'
In the heart of London, where Coleridge, and
Lamb, and Leigh limit wore educated, and
about which they.wrote so lovingly, was en
dowed, by King Edward's charter, in ,IG6&,
with about £4OO a year, for the maintenance
and education of some thirty children of poor
citizens. At present, there are nearly four
teen hundred children roared, clothedi-fed
and taught in this school, at a coat of £60,000,
to which the original small endowment liaa
expanded. &few of those scholars are pre
pared for the Universities, in which subse
quent endowments by i9dividuala have found
ed salaried scholarship!, and of the rest, such
as reciter(' it are apprenticed ont•andlikovided
with money to start in life, when they reach
the suitable age.
We advisedly say that such as require it are
thus cared for—because, like, other .public
schools, Christ's Hospital has become the
scene of- great abuses. Comparatively few o
the poor citizens of London can now have
their children educated in this their own
school. Admission 'is obtained by ec *gents
tion"—which is exchanged, and even . some
tithes sold, and many of the gentry, with very
competent means, have their children edu
cated there, free of cost: In, other public
schools—such as Don, Harrow, Winchester,
Rugby, &c—the mere show of. thus educating
the children of town's-people is all' that is
kept up. The Master and his assistant titters
lay themselves out for receiving boaiders, and
the town's.boys are treated by these rlchhcrka :
with contumely aticontempt, thotzo,the
schools have actuallYyien endowedily
for them. Eton, founded in . 1440, to itincate
twenty-five poor scholars, had then - an Intome ,
of about 4600 a year, which has increisedlo'
47,000, and the total number of pupils in 767'
—of whom only the original twenty..fire.'are
on' the fOundatiOn. Th'e vast majority 'l4
about 4300 per annum, .each lad, for ;insane.
tion and board ; and the.proflts are ths perpal.•
sites of the Masters. Thus, the Head Master
of one of the great grammar schools may thus
make an income of from 44,000:to 1,10,000 , a
year, and such ofthojnnior masters as ciao have
the privilege of receiving boarders, imihze from
4700 to £B,OOO each. One great, g is
that, even is populous towstw meg "ail:
dren - educated at these schools, the board
ers (from
,other places) are allowed to coni
petefor the scholarships and other university
stations and gains, exclusively the property,of
the- school--that is, of the town's children
and most generally obtain them, for the rich:
pupils have the privilege of extra-teaching, or
coaching, by the masters, on an extra payment,
and are better prepared,' of course, thin the
lads who have no finch aid. It roiling the
eternal fact, that money can do almost any-,
thing, any where.
Of all the English public - schools in -our
time, that of Rugby was the most popular, tin;
der the sagacious and practically -Christian
rnie of the Rev. Dr. Thomas Arnold,"the his
torian, which lasted from August, 1828, to his
death, in June, 1842. The book called a Toni
Brown's School Days at Rugby," of which
Ticknor & Fields have published eighteen
largo editions, besides ono with illustrations,
is devoted to showing in what manner Arnold
taughb his pupils to be • Christian gentlemen
and good scholars. The final chapter, In
Which Tom Brown, no • longer a school-boy,
sadly visits Rugby, in the vacation, after
bearing of Arnold's death, is wonderfully pa
thetic. The whole book, we repeat, gives an
unsurpassed, because most truthful picture, a
succession of pictures, of youthful life st
first-class English public school: As a memo
rial to the moral worth of Dr. Arnold; it is
oven better than the biography by PrOfessor
Stanley, of Oxford.
-The author of "Tom Brown" did not put
his name on the title-page, and therefore,
respecting his anonyme, Dr. Allibone has
not mentioned him in the great Dictionary
of English and American authors. His
is - a name, nevertheless, of some re
pnte in letters. His father, highly praised
by Walter Scott in the graphic introduction,
to re Quentin 'Durward," for his excellent
C 4 Itinerary of Province and the Rhine daring
1819, has the additional honor of. figuring ai
rc Kr. Butler of Brazanose," in the " Nodes
Ambrosianm—having been John Wilaon's con
temporary and friend at Oxford.
Thomas Hughes, who followed rr Tom
Brown'S School Days at Rugby," by an odd
and highly amusing volume,
illustrated by
Richard Doyle, called cr The Scorning of the
White Horse; or, the Long Vacation Holiday
of a London Clerk," (published in 18b9,) de-
termined to carry his hero from the..fichoo
through the University, and therefore, Some
two years ago, commenced a serial, entitled
gi Torn Brown at Oxford," avowedly a•sequel
to his first work. This, regularly running
through an English periodical, Macmillan's {
Magazine, published at Cambridge, is now
concluded. Last year, Ticknor and Fields
brought out a moiety of it, in a neat lilmo. of
378 pages, and have just published the re
mainder in a somewhat bulkier volume, with a
*re portrait of the anther.
We doubt whether any writer has more
closely exhibited the penetralia of English
University life than Mr. Hughes.. We can
only recall two who at all come near him in
this. Ono is Charles Astor Busted, the Ame
rican, whose c 4 Five Years in an English Uni.
versity," (New York, 1852,) gives a fair view
of what he saw at Cambridge; and the other
being the Rev. John Hewlett, formerly Master
'of the Abington Grammar School, near Ox
ford, who died about 1845, and wrote a great
deal about cc life" at Oxford, in novels of
which he did not care to proclaim himself the
author. His nom-de-plume was the nndigni
fled one of "Peter Frigging."
Mr. Bristed's book is an honest one, written
with grace and truth by a scholar, but as far
I as we recollect, does not exhibit much of ; the
inner life at Cambridge. Mr. Hewlett was
familiar with Oxford, but was what is called
" a fast man" there, even after he took Holy
Orders, and his novels describe "fast" life in
Oxford. On the contrary, while Mr. Hughes
takes us over Tom Brown's three undergra
duate peen, as well as the Master's term at
Oxford, and shows us the inside of college.
lice, the whole tone of his book is elevating,
and its moral practical, as well as pure. . A
young man, whether an University.student or
not, mast be improved, if he has any common
sense, by reading the adventures and misad
ventures of Tom Brown.
The book, moreover, is not only interesting
for what it shows of University.life, but on
other accounts. It shows a groat deal of
Englleh rural life, and even of the fashionable
, world of London. One great moral it teaches—

But there are two great drawbaoks. I approach
the Toad by the Fifth street passenger oars, and we
"ate . odevelled to change oars about one or two
hundred yards from the station on the railroad,
instead of being carried to the spot. The speolal
nuisance, however, is on the return. There are
always two oars in waiting, and the conductor of
No. 1 takes care to shove every passenger into his
oar until it IR packed like herrings in a barrel, and
One is not allowed the privilege of taking the next
oar, which follows In a few minutes In a late
car every seat Was filled, and both platforms, be
sides some five or six-standing, toithe great annoy
ance of those who were seated. In addition to this,
in a few squares, a large CrineetMet women was
shoved to—not a lady, of course—and a gentleman
was wily enough to give up his neat. Now, this is
a nuisance which should be abated, and if Conn
oils have ems control over these oars, they should ,
require that every, passenger . . have a seat, and not
permit another - td'eiatiii;.under a penalty of one
to five dollars upon the conductor or company
These oars were alleged to be got up as a public
convenience, Instead of which, they are every
where complained of for this packing, and want of
attention on the part of conductors to give every
one a seat

Front and Walnut on the arrival of a steamboat.

her a seat They were rtgld ; and women must

Grand Review in Baltimore.
APPKAELSOId OF TUN VIIILADXLPITIA 11HOIMILNTS
From the Baltimore American of yesterday.]
Agreeably to public' orders, there was a grand
review yesterday, byGen. Banks, of 6e regiments
which are stationed about this city, at Camp Car
roll. The several oommands commenced &Beam
bling about four o'clock. In the mean time the
broad green sward was pretty well occupied by
ladies and gentlemen, the large proportion of
whom were on foot, whilst many others were in
vehioles, and all seemed to enjoy themselves ex
ceedinglywith the sight presented them
There were about six thousand persons present,
in addition to the military, but it the affair bad
been properly noticed, the mass of citizens in at.
tendance would have been immense. - The review
"oonsisted of the following military commands:
Light Artillery Battery, of Massachusetts, con•
slating of six six-pound brass field pieces and six
Oft{3sollll, each drawn by four horses, with Major
Cook in command, First Lieutenant Josiah Porter,
Beoond Lieutenant W. II McCartney, Third Lieu
tenant C. C. Mortimer, Fourth Lieutenant Robert
L. Lewes, Burgeon J. P. Ordway, M. D. These
men are willing to re-enter the service providing
Gen. Scott desires more light artillery; bat at the
last advioes be said he bad enough.
Philadelphia Light Guard, Col. T. G. More•
bead, Lieutenant-Colonel William L. Curry, Major
George P. McLean. The regiment was beaded by
Professor Whittington's band, who performed a
number of delightful airs in a scientific manner.
This regiment occupied the second post of honor,
having been posted on the left.- The period of their
enlistment expires on the 2.3 d, and their services
having been accepted, the entire command will re
nista in the'servioe.
Twentieth Regiment of New York Volunteers,
whioh are now stationed at Patterson's Park, Col.
George W. Pratt, Lieutenant Colonel T. B. Gates,
Major J B flardenburg The term of enlistment
expires on the 23d, and two thirds of the regiment
will gladly re enter the service.
Eighth. Massachusetts Regiment, Colonel E. W.
Woks, Lieutenant Colonel A. E. Ellsworth, Major
Ben Parley Poore. This regiment wee accompanied
by their splendid band, which discoursed a great
number of fine compositions.
Nineteenth (National Guard) Regiment of Phila.
deiphia, Colonel Pater Lyle, lieutenant Colonel
Baxter,. Major Fritz, arasomplinied by Captain P.
0. Prosser's Cornet Band. The whole of this com
mand has been accepted and will re-enlist
'Eighteenth Infantry Regiment of Philadelphia,
Colonel WM. D. Lewis, Lieutenant Colonel Charles
Wilhelm, Major. Alexander -Newbold. This regi.
meat, which paraded 700 minket:l, was heaaed by
Capt. Sohneiber's brass band, and moved exceed
ingly well Their period - of service will expire on
the 23d, and nearly ail will return home
Thirteenth Brooklyn Regiment of. New York,
Colonel Abel Smith, Lieutenant Colonel Robert
Clarke, Major Morgan, with a drum corps and
bane mustering in all nearly forty pieces. ,
The entire command did not embrace less than
five thousand able• bodied men, and their move
ments plainly showed that a hearty three months'
drill in the camp and field has contributed con
eiderably to render them good soldiers
After all the respective commands had fallen In
line, General Banks, armempanted by two aide,
rode down the line and paid particular attention
to the men, some of whom, contrary to military die
oipline, gave him a military salute. After a few
minutes the entire military column passed in re•
view before him, and the movements throughout
were highly creditable to all ooneerned. Too much
praise cannot be awarded to Captain Cook's Artil
lery Battery, which exercised very admirably.
General Banks expressed a high degree antis
faction upon witneseing the appearance of the line,
and declared that the diteipline, generally, was
equal to that of the regulars.
