Udable TretjUentlylo repressu’Kft 'emotion, he drew to himself by iDv6ftitaVy-e*clom'aliohs the attention of [ho-audience anff Charlotte Corday. At the moment when' thejpresident passed sentence of death, the young man rose from his, seal, with; the gesture'of a man who protests'from the "bpttorft of his heart, and then sunk back, as though his strength had failed him. Charlotte, insensible of her own fate, perceived this movement, and coin pfehended that, at a moment when all bn earth had abandoned hcr,n, kiodrqdspirit a j. lacked itself to hers, and that', amidst this hostile or indifferent throng, she possessed an unknown friend, and she thanked him with a look. ,Cv; •. , This young stranger was Adam Lux, a German republican, sent to Paris by the rev olutionists oi Mayence, to concert the move ments of Germany with those of France, in the common cause of human reason and the liberty of the people. Llia eyes followed Charlotte, until she disappeared among the gens d' armss benealh the arch of the stairs. His thoughts never quitted her, On her return to the Conceirgerie, which was so soon to yield her up to the scaffold, Charlotte Corday smiled on her companions in prison, who had arranged themselves in the corridors and courts to see her pass.— She said to the concierge, “ I had hoped that we should breakfast together once more, but the judges have detained me so long that you musi forgive me for having broken rny word." The executioner arrived ; she requested him to allow her lime to finish a letter, not the outpouring of weakness nor regret, but the Inst act of wounded friendship—address ing an eternal reproach to the cowardly spir it which had abandoned her. It was addressed to Doulccl de Penlccou lant, whom she had seen at her aunt’s, and on whom she believed she had called in vain to be her defender. The letter was as fol lows : " Doulcet de Pentccoulant is a coward to have refused to defend me when it was so easy, lie who undertook if, performed his task with all possible dignity, and I shall re tain a grateful recollection of him to my last moments.” Her indignation was unjust; the young Pentecoulant, who was absent from Paris, had not received her letter; his generosity aud courage were a sufficient guaranty that he would have accepted the office ;■ and Char* toile bore an error and injustice to the scaff old. Tho artist who had sketched Charlotte’s likeness at the..,tribunal, was. M. Hauer, a painter and officer of the national guard, of the section of the Theater Francaise. On her return to tho prison, she requested the concierge to allow him to finish his work, and, on his arrival, Charlotte thanked him for the interest he appeared to take in her, and quickly sat to him, ns though, while she per milled him to transmit her form and fealurcs to posterity, she also charged him hand down her mind and her patriotism lo unborn gener ations. She conversed with M. Uaueron h!s profession, the event of the day, ard the peace of mind she had fell aflcr Ihe execution of her design ; she spoke of her young friend nl Caen, and requested him to paint a minia ture from the portrait, and send i( loher fam ily. Suddenly, a knock was heard at the door, and the executioner entered. Charlotte, lurn ing around, perceived tho scissors and red, chemise he carried oyet his arm. “What! already,!’ exclaimed she turning pale. Then recovering her composure, and glancing at the unfinished portrait, “ Mon sieur.” said she to the artist. “ I know not how to thank you for the trouble you have taken; I have only this loftier you. Keep it in memory of your kindness and my grat itude.’’ As she spoke, she took the scissors from the executioner, and severing a lock of her long fair hair, she gave it to M. Hauer. This portrait, interrupted by death, is still in the possession of the family of M. Hauer. The head only was painted, and the bust merely sketched. But the painter, who watched the preparation for the scaffold, was so struck with the sinister splendor added by a red che mise to the beauty of the model, that after death, he painted her in this costume. A priest, rent by the public accuser, prei sented himself to offer the last consolation of religion. “ Thank,” said she to him, “ those' who have sent you, but I need not your min istry. The blood that I have spilt, and my own which I am about to shed, are the only sacrifices I can offer' the Eternal.” The ex ecutioner then cut off her hair, and put on the chemise des condamnes. “This,” said she, “ is the toilet of death, somewhat-rude hands, but it leads to lality.” She collected her long hair, looked at it for the last time and gave it to Madame Richard. As she mounted the fatal car, a violent storm broke over Paris, bill the lightning and rain did not disperse (ho the crowds that blocked up the squares, the bridges and - the fitfeeft which she passed. Hordes of women, or rather, furies, followed her with the fiercest imprecations ; but insensible to these insults, she gazed on the populace with eyes Beaming will) serenity and compassion. -v '* The sky 'cleared up,'and iherains which wetted her to the skin, displayed the exquis< ile symmetry of herjbrm, like ibat of p woi man leaving lhebath.’ Her handsbouudbe hind her'rbaqki obliged her to fiold up: her head, and-tbis forced rigidity of the.muscles, gave mure fixity loditnMjgure. iThe’xaystpf the setting sun. fell bpott: ..and i;bar complexion, {lightened by iha>ed,‘ fcbemise,- of ao uheanhly bnlliancy.i r.Robea pierre, Damon, CanyjUe and Desmoulins, had placed themselves on h«r passetgedo gqxe on '•jeitrrg ■>*“« h (n m ', 1 ' f '' ! ,{ >'tt« A6%ATK>!* OF SfECINN*!^ r <lJ* I «ilBD63£"-- v ' ! ‘ > - y V’ i ,r; v ?.:d y; 4.?. .i’UfejttU.

The cart slopped, ond Charlotte, at the sight of the fa tal instrument, turned pale, but, soon recover ing borself, ascended the scaffold with as slight and rapid a step as ihe long chemise ond her pinioned prms permitted. When the executioner, to bare her neck, removed the kerchief that covered her bosom, this insult moved her more than impending death ; then turning to the guillotine, shftjplaced herself under the axe. The heavy blade fell, and her head rolled on the scaffold. One of the assistants, named Legros, took it in his hand and struck.it on the cheek. It is said that a deep crimson overspread the face, as though dignity one modesty had lor an instant lasted longer even than life. Such was the death of Moral; such were the life and death of Charlotte Cordny. In the face Of murder, history does not praise, and in Ihe face of heroism, dare not condemn her. The opprcciotion of such an net places us in the terrible alternative of blaming vir tue, or.applauding assassination. Like the painter, who, despairing of rendering a sin-' gle expression of a single Sentiment, cast a veil over the figure, wo must leave this mystery to be debated in the abysses of the human heart. There are deeds of which men are no judges, and which mount, without appeal, di rect to the tribunal of God. There are in human actions so strange a mixture of weak ness and strength, pure intent and culpable means, error and truth, murder and martyr dom—that we know not whether to term them crime, or virtue. The culpable devo tion of Charlotte Corday, is among those acts which horror and admiration would leave .eternally in doubt, did not morality reprove them. we fo lihd fdr this sublime liberh and generous murderess of distraint name which should at once con vey'lhe enthusiasm of our feelings towards her, and the severity of our judgement on her action, we would coin a phrase combin ing the extrema of admiration and horror, and term her the Angel of Assassination! A few days afterwards, Adam Lux pub lished the “ Apology of Charlotte Corday,” and associated himself with her, dead, in or der to share her martyrdom. Arrested, and sent to the Abbaye,he exclaimed as he enter ed the prison, “ I shall die for her!” He perished soon after, saluting ns the altar of of liberty and love, the scaffold which the blood of his model had hallowed. ThS’her oism of Charlotte was sung by the [loot An dre Chenier, who was himself soon to die for that common fatherland of all great souls— pure liberty. “ Whose is this tomb?” sings the German poet Klopstock. “It is the tomb of Char lotte. Let us gather flowers and scatter them over her ashes, for she is dead for her country. No, no ; gather nothing ; let us seek for a weeping willow, and plant it o’er her tomb, for she is dead for her country.— No, no ; plant nothing ; but weep and lot your tears be blood, for she is dead in vain for her country.” Vergniaud, on learning in his dungeon, of the crime, trial and death of Charlotte, exclaimed, “ She destroys us, but she teaches us how to die.”—Lamar tine's History of the Girondists.

But bn first days and' ihosfe appropriated \o meetings on wbejc days, (here - appeared-about him an air of kolbmnliy that if not inspiring awe, excited n feeling jn his, young associates nearly akin to it, and kept them for a time at a respectful distance. He read much of everything that fell in his way. Books were then comparatively scarce, but yet in the intelligent community in which he, resided there were many valuable, though limited collections, and he obtained a respec table knowledge of History and the common-.; Iy taught sciences of Geography, Mathemat ics and Astronomy. His preferred reading however was indifferent. Religious works— the Bible, from its earliest historical records —the Jewish dispensation, so wild in its ro mantic interest, so impressive in many of its) solemn ceremonies—the beautiful Psalms of the monarch bard—the lofty and soul-inspi ring writings of the Prophets the new dispen sation of our Saviour bursting upon the be nighfld earth, like a flood of cheering and guiding light, engrossed his mind. And while he learned all tbai Seneca and Plato, Locke and Bacon taught, the works of Penn and Barclay,the journal of Chalkly and other wri ters of his own profession, and the powerful and impressive sermons of Fothergill, claimed his particular attention. At length, while yet a very young man,.and still in his appren ticeship, he presented himself in meetings of business, making a few remarks, always per tinent and modestly delivered. Acoystomed to the sound of his own voice be advanced still further, and spoke briefly and accepta bly in meetings for worship.

In silence you have long stud ied and weighed and reasoned: Go—the time has come fur action.” As a Religionist of his own sect we should have said—“ There is a clear manifestation of duly, and thou art bound to obey and not hide thy talents under a bushel.” The fame of this exlrordinary young man soon extended beyond the limits of the Coun ty. We are not certain whether the mee ting was in the city or country, but the occa sion was important, and there were congrega ted a large assemblage—‘many of the most prominent ministers and elders of Friends’ Society from Philadelphia being present, dif ferences of opinion on some weighty matter prevailed, and ilio argument boenmaanimated. In the midst of the discussion this young man arose and spoke to the point with n clearness, a vigor and propriety, that delighted Ids friends and surprised the whole auditory. With no little display of feeling an eminent member from (he city, whose opinions had been' successfully controverted, rose and asked—“ Is not that the Potter-boy ?” From the moment Jesse Kersey, stood forth, not alone in the Assemblies of Friends, but throughout the community, as a young man of the most promising talents, who was also beloyed for every domestic and social virtue. Ho look an extraordinary lend for so young a man, (hough he could yet hardly have been conscious of the rioh stores of his own mind. He is represented by those who then hoard him as rising, with .''unaffected solemnity.

As no inconsiderable number of Friends had visited America from England, it was thought by, many that it might be' proper to, reciprocate the kindness, and Jesse Kersey had deparled on a Religious visit to the Em pire ■ of Science, of Learning, of Eloquence and Tnsle. The enterprise was a bold, wo will not say a hazardous ooe. The English were long and habitually used to view with microscopic pre judice the effort of Americans. “ Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” seemed to be the. spirit of their opinions. Led by a sus taining sense of duty, he went aad entered at once on the field of his ministry. Whether to the newness of the scene—the influence of the sea voyage, or to whateivbr cause, for we have heard no plauable reason assigned, but his efforts foiled. Fame had sounded her clarion before him, heralding his approach. But disappointment sat on every brow ; ant} as he'made the lour of tbe differaot<nieeiings throughout the’land, cold civility chilled his hearl, already prepar ed to exclaim “ w|ty hidesl thou thy spirit from oie 7” Returning jo London heavily oppressed, he lingered. Something within him whispered—“ Thy task is not yet accom plished—thy lajtor is not done.” 1 The deep workings of his powerful mind no man can fully conceive; but the next, lime he appeared in public the cloud seemed to be removed—the occulation was over—the eclipse was past—the wheel turned rapidly at. his command—and the graceful vase rose in beautiful proportions at his' bidding.

Delighted and deeply affected crowds now gathered round him, and Jesse Kersey, the Chester County Potter-boy, made the tour of proud and polished England in all the triumph of victorious eloquence. It was late in life when we first heard him, but ho sustained the character given of his early efforts. He was an instructive, a sweet, a beautiful speaker. To admiration of his extraordinary talents many years intimate acquaintance kindled a feeling in our breast of strong and lasting friendship. To us he seemed without guile. Rarely have wo met a man who appeared so uniformly full of the milk of human kindness. A most amiable i spirit of benevolence seemed ever to pervade his breast. The unhappy division in the So ciety of Friends came near breaking his heart.—He never was the same man after wards.
