EMERSON’S 001 m (102' OF LIFE.
From Mr. Emerson’s new volume, we give
the following extracls; ~
FATE
The book of Nature is the book of Fate. She
turns the gigantic pages—leaf after leaf—mover
re-turning one. One leaf she lays down, a floor
of granite, then a thousand ages, and a bed of
state; a thousand ages, and a. measure of coal;
a thousand ages, and alayer of marl and mud;
vegétlsble foams appear; her first. misshapen
animals, zoophyte, mlobium, fish; than, sunri—
aus—rude forms, in which she has only blocked
her future statue, eoqcealing under these un
wieldy monsters the fine type of her coming
king- 1, The face of the planet cools and dries,
the, races meliorate, and ' man is born. But:
when a race has livcd'ita term, it comes no more
again.
" The population of the world is n conditional
population; not the best, but the best- that
could live now, and the scale of tribes, and the
steadiness with ‘which- victory adheres to one
tribe, and defeat to another, has uniform as
the superposition of strata. We know in his
tory what weight belongs to race. we see the
English, French and Germans planting them
selves on every shore and market of America.
and Australia, and monopolizing the commerce
of these countries. We like the nervous and
victorious habit of our own branch of the fam
ily. We follow the (step of the Jew, of the
Indian, of the Negro. We see how much will
has been expended to extinguish the Jew, in
vain. . Look at the unpalatable conclusions of
Knox, in his “Fragment of Raees,”—-a rash
and unsatisfactory writer, but charged with
pungent andrunforgetable truths.
‘fNeture respects race, and not hybirds."—
“Every race has its own . habitat.” “Detach a
colony from the race, and it deteriorates to the
orab.”. See the shades of: the picture. The
Germsnand Irish millions, li-kethe Negro, have
a great deal of guano in», their, destiny. They
are ferxied _over the Atlantic, and hearted over
America, to glitch and to drudge, to make corn
cheap, and then ,to lie down prematurely to
malte'a spot of green grass on the prairie.
Fate is .unpenetrated causes. The water
droWns ship and sailor, like a grain of dust:—
Bnt learn to swim, trim your bark, and the
wave which drowned it will be cloyeu by it,
and carry'it, like its own foam, a. plume and a.
power! The cold is inconsiderate of persons,
tingles'your blood, freezes a man like a flow
drép._ ,B‘ut learn to skate, and the ice will give
you a graceful, sweet and poetic motion. The
cold Will brace your limbs and brains to genius,
and make yeti foremost men 0! time. Cold and
sea will train an imperial Saxon race, which
nature cannot hear to lose, and, after cooping
it up for a thousand years in yonder England,
gives a hundred Englands. a hundred Mexicos,
All the bloods it shall absorb and domineer;
and' more than Mexicos—the secret of water
and steam, the spasms of electricity, the duc~
tility of metals, the chariots of the air, the
rudder-ed balloons are awaiting you.
NATURE
‘ Nature is a spenuthrift, but takes the short
est way to hex-ends. As the general says to,
his soldiers, ”if you want a fort, build a fort,”
Bo nature makes every creature do its own work
and get its living—his it planet, animal or tree?
The planet makes itself. The animal cell
makes itself; then, what it wants. Every
creature, wren or dragon, shall make its own
lair. As soon as there is life, there is'self—
direction, audabsorbing and using of material.
Life is freedom—life in. the direct ratio of its
amount. You may be sure the new born man
is not inert. Life works both voluntarily and
super-naturally in its neighborhood. Do you
suppose he can be estimated by his weight in

BEHAVIOR-
A high-born Turk who came hither fancied
that every woman seemed to be suffering {or a
chair; that all the talkers were brained and
exhausted by the ‘deoxygenated air; it spoiled
the best persons; it. put all on stilts. Yet here
are the secret biographies written and read.—
The aspect of that man is repulsive; I do not
Wish to deal with him. The other is irritable,
shy, and on his guard. The youth looks humble
and manly; I choose him. Look on this wo
man. There is not beauty, no brilliant say
ings, nor distinguished power to serve you; but
all see her gladly; her whole air and impres
sion are healthful. Here comes the sentimen
talists, and the invalids. Here is Elise. who
caught cold in coming into the world, and has
always increased it since. Here are creep
mouse manners, and thievish manners. “Look
at Northcote,” said Fuseli; “he looks like a
rat that has seen a out.” In the shallow com~
pany, easily excited, easily tired. here is the
columnar Bernard; the Alleghenies do not ex~
press more repose than his behavior. Here are
the sweet following eyes of Cecile; it seemed
always that she demanded the heart. Nothing
can be more excellent in kind then the Corin
thian grace of Gertrude’s manners, and yet
Blanche, who has no manners, has better man
ners than she; for the movements of Blanche
are the sallies of a spirit which is sufficient for
the moment, as sh'e can afford to express every
thought by instant action.
WEALTH
Wealth is in application of mind to nature ;
and the art of getting rich consists not in
industry, much less in saving, but in a better
order, in timeliness, in being at the right spot.
One man has stronger arms. or longer legs;
another seen by the course of streams and
growth of markets, where land will he wanted,
makes a clearing to the river, goes to sleep,
and wakes up rich. Steam is no stranger now
than it was a hundred years ago; but is put to
better use. A clever fellow was acquainted
with the expansive force of steam; he also

WANTS
There are three wants which never can be
satisfied; that of the rich, who wants some
thing more ; that of the sick, who wants some
thing different, and that of the traveler, who
says: “Anywhere but hera.”. The Turkish
endl said to Leyerd, “ After the fashion of the
people thouhast wandered from one place to
another, until thou art contented and happy
in none.” My countrymen are not less infat
uated with the rococo toy of Italy. All America
seems on the point of embarking for Europe.
But we shell not always traverse seas and lands
with light purposes, and for pleasure, as we
say. One day we shall cast out the passion of
Europe, by the passion of, America. Culture
.will give gravity and domestic rest to those
who now trowel only as not knowing how else
to spend money. Already, who provoke pity
like that excellent family putty just arriving
in their well-appointed carriage, as far from
home and any honest end as ever? Each na
tion has asked successively, “What are they
here for l” nntilat lost the party are shame
faced, and anticipate the question at the gates
of the town.
Genial manners are good, and power of ac
commodation to any circumstance, but the high
prize of life, the crowning fortune of a man,
is who born with a bias to some pursuit, which
finds him in . employment and happiness—
whether it be to make baskets, or broadawords,
or canals, or statues. or songs._
BEAUTY.
.‘ Th’at beauty in the normal state, is shown by
the perpetual efi‘ort of nature to obtain it.—
Mirabeau~ had an ’ ugly face on a handsome
ground ; and we see faces every day which have
a good type, but have been marred in the cast
ing; a proof that we are all entitled to beauty,
should have been beautiful, 'if our ancestors
had kept the laws—as every lily and every rose
is Well. But our bodies do not fit as, but our;
icature and satarize us. Thus short legs, which
constrain us to short, minoing steps, are akind
of personal insult and coutumely to the owner;
and long stilts, again, put him at perpetual
disadvantage, and force him to stoop to the
general level of mankind. Martial ridicules a.
gentleman of his day whose countenance re
sembled the face of a swimmer seen under
water. Sandi describes-s schoolmaster "so ugly.
and erabbed that a sight of him would derange
the ecstacies of the orthodox." Faces are
rarely true to any ideal type, but are a record
in sculpture of a thousand anecdotes of whim
and folly. Portrait painters say that most
faces and forms are irregular and unsymme
trical; have one eye blue and one gray; the nose
not straight: and one shoulder higher than
another; the hair unequally distributed, &0.

A beautiful person, among the Greeks, was
thought. to betray by this sign some secret fa~
yor of the immortal gods; and we can pardon
pride, when a woman pose‘ssel such a figure
whenever she stands, or moves, or leaves a
shadow on the'woll, or sits for a. portrait to the
artist, she confers a. favor on the world.
THE EMPR E'SS E UGENIE
From the Baltimore Exchange
Eugenie Marie de Guzman, Countess of Teba
and Empress of France, at the age of thirty
four, and in the full bloom of womanly beauty,
already begins to grow weary of the rigid for.
malities of an Imperial Court, of the splendors
of Royalty, and of those stately “ progresses,”
which, as consort of the foremost man in all
Europe, she has recently been making through
Algeria and the Franco-Italian provinces of
Nice and Savoy. The high spirit for which
she was distinguished on her first appearance
in the salons of Paris, in 1851 ; the pretty dis
dain with which she refused to conform to the
petty conventionalities of fashionable society,
and the gaiety of disposition that gave an ad
ditional charm to her wondrous loveliness,
have departed from her. Possessed of all the
accomplishments that bcfit her to fillworthily
the imperial station to which she has been ele
vated; graceful in her deportment, and with
manners so attractive as to win. the afiection of
all classes of people, she is also reputed to be
a liberal aims-giver, and a. generous and unsel
fish friend, but of a. nature ,too sensitive and
impressible, and perhaps too ingenious, to be
able to mask her feelings or to subdue her ap
prehensions. These attributes, so essentially
feminine, constitute at once the source of her
strength and of her Weakness—of the popular
attachment which she has inspired. and of the
‘ fears with which she is impressed. Women of
such a temperament pass easily from one ex
‘ treme to another. In some, “ a youth of folly”
subsides into " an old age of cards." In others
the change is still more strongly marked, and
1 rapid, and mysterious. The very suddenness
‘ of the act of transformation bewnldm the
imagination. The woman WllO J’esmrfjay en‘
‘ joyed life with a. hearty zest; .who was the
light and life of all circles in which she moved;
whose spirits were the most buoyant and Irre
pressible, and Whose laugh had the merriest
ring—all at. once, and without any risihle pre
monition, fol-sakes the drmng‘roong and the
opera, for the church and the confessional, and
from the gayest of pleasure seekers, becomes
the most rigid of oevotees. Such appears to
he the case, al- this time, With the Empress
Eugenie. The cores and exactions of Imperial
Stu“, , the troubles of the Church to which she
is ardently attached; the recent loss of her
sister, the Duchess of Alba; all these things
press heavily upon her, and, since the death of
her sister, have brought on a profound reli
gious melancholy, combined with hypochcn
driacal symptoms. To those whose who suffer

her advisers, seems to have puzzled the English
journalists quite its much as the suddcnness of
her presence in "the inviolate Isle,“ and the
Privacy which marked her entrance into and
departure from London. Some, too, wondered
why she should have undertaken the journey
at all; and for a moment, but for a moment
only, scandal began, as usual, to connect the
name of the Emperor with that ofthe Countess
Castlglione. The English Court Journal was
among ”12 first to state the impelling cause;
and the truth of that statement was speedily
corroborated from other sources. If the fair
maladc imaginairc had gone to Italy, her appear
ance there would have been ascribed to matters
of State Policy. In Spain she would scarcely
have been welcome to the lust of the Bourbon .
soverigns, or to the Orleonist party at that
Court, which clusters round the Montpensiers.
The state of popular feeling in Germany, as
exhibited towards Napoleon 111, scarcely ad
mitted of her traveling in that country. without .
running the risk of being subjected to annoy

after the‘expulsion 'of the Stuart dynastyrfron
the throne of England? It may also be trap,
that she desired to consult an eminent physi
cian of Edinburgh, on the proper treatment “to
be pursued in her case. Whether this be so or
not, it is evident that the enthusiasm with
which she was welcomed by the citizens of the
various towns through which she passed on
her journey Northward: the cordial desire
expressed by the City Council of Edinburgh
that her sojourn in the Scottish Capital “ might
conduce to her health and happiness,” and her
subsequent visits to Holyrood and Loch Levin
Castle—the palace and the prison of Mary,
Queen of Scots—and to Abbotsfoi‘d and Mel
rose Abbey, have already produced a beneficial
effect upon her spirits. Some surprise has
~been expressed that, on her arrival at London.

temporary absence from Paris, may very well.

besides, it is understood that on her return
from Scotland, she will become the guest» of
Qheen Victoria, at Windsor, and, that the Eat-g.
pér'or will meetyher there and accompany her
back to Paris. Simultaneously with the'nrrival
of the Empress Eugenie at Edinburgh, the
youthful Empress of Austria, who has been
gradually wasting away under the olfects of an
obscure malady, made her appearance ofi‘ the
shores of England, from whence shewas to sail
to Madeira. in‘ search of health, in the royal
steam yacht which had been generously placed,
at her disposal by Queen Victoria. It is a
singular conjunction of events, that of two Em
presses, both wandering in search of health,
theone afflicted mentallyand the other bodily,
and both satedwith grandeur—the one seeking
relief from an ever-present sense of impending
evil in active travel among the rugged but his
torically memorable scenery and architecttb

strengthen her feeble hold upon life by enjoy
ing a brief period of quiet and repose in the

A GAME MISTAKE—Many of our renders
remember the stately presence, the dignified‘
bearing and imposing manner of Colonel Wil
liam CV Preston, of South Carolina,“ It was
when all those qualities were in their prime.
and Preston represented his State in the Senate
of the United States, that. business or pleasure
called him to the West, and to take passage
down the Mississippi river. In those “flush
times” the steamers swarmed with hoosiers.
greenhorns, and gamblers, the latter politely
designated “sporting gentlemen,” the term
“gambler” or “blackleg” entailing on the
speaker a. ‘pistol shot or a wipe from a bowie
knife.
The boat was on the eve of departure, and
our Senator, standing on the deck and holding
a small mahogany box, was observing with
great interest and pleasure the busy scene on
the wharf, when an individual, luxurieting in_
a. rather ornate style of dress, approached him,
and in subdued tone demanded:
“I any. old teller, when are you going to
comme'nce'!”
“Commence what, sir 2" asked the aston
ished Senator.
“Pshaw! none of that gammon with me!
The fact. is, a. few of us boys want a little fun,
and we won't pile on too strong for you; so
come and ope? at. once.”
“Really, sir," replied Preston, “lam-lo
tany at a loss to guess your meanigg; open
what. ‘?”
Open what! Why the bank of course. May
be you think our pile isn’t large enough to
make it an object. But we’re not so poor as
all that any how!”
The Senator meditated gloomily, but all was
dark to him, he was plunged into a sea of
doubt, and he had never met any problem not.
even a political one so hard to solve.
“ Perhaps,” broke in his pertinacions friend
again, after a considerable pause, “ perhaps
you, will say directly that you are not. a sport
ing man.” . ‘
“Icertainly am nothing of the kind, air,”
replied Preston, rather angrily ; “ and I can’t
imagine what put the idea into your head." ‘
“Not a. sporting mun? Whew-w! I never
heard of such a piece of impndence! Well,
if you are not a. sporting man, will you plea”
to tell me why you carry that. about with you 2”
and he pointed to the mahogany box which he
still carried.
A fight- broke on Preston’s mind! “The
mahogany box!” he cried. “Ha! ha! ha!
hat—very natural mistake, indeed my good
sir, very natural indeed! my good sir; very
indeed! Well, I will show you the contents."
And laughing heartily he opened the box in
question, which was in fact, a. dressing 035°.
and displayed the usual parade of brushes,
combs, razors, soap, etc., which usually fill
that article of traveling comfort
Our friend looked at the case, then at Preston
again. Then he heaved a long sigh, and then
he pondered. .
“ Well," he broke out atlength, “I 1!“! take
you to be a sporting gentlemanf-I did; but
now I see you are a barber; but}! I’d known
