A BEAUTIFUL CHARACTER, We extract from a volume of Lectures and Essays, by the Rev. Henry Oiles.the following beautiful picture of a join man. The two volumes are filled with similar passages of eloquence and truth t "A just man is always simple. Heim a man of direct aim! and purposes. There is no complexity in his motives, and hence there is no jarring or discordancy in his chary:ter. He wishes to do right and in most cues he does it t he may err, but it is by mistake of judgment, not by per. versity or intention, The moment his judgment Is enlightened, his aetion is eor. meted. Setting before himself, always, a clear and worthy end, he will never pur sue it by any conoesled or unworthy means. We may carry our remarks for illustration, both into public and private life. Observe such a man is his home here is a charm slant him which no arti ficial grace has overbid the power to be stow I there is a sweetness, I had almost said a music in ' his manners, which no sentimental refinement has ever given.—..

The river that fills iti"channels, glides , smoothly along in the power of its course; it is the stream which scarcely covers the raggedness of its bed, that is turbulent and noisy. With all its gentleness there is exceeding force ; with Intl its meekness there is imperative corn ea:aid ; but the force is the force of wis dom ; and the command is the command of love. And yet the authority which rules so effectually, never gathers an an gry or an irritable cloud over the brow of the ruler ; and this.sway which admits of no resistance, does not repress one honest impulse of nature, one moment of the soul's high freedom,ono bound of joy from the heart's unhidden gladdness, itt the spir its of the governed." orEARLEBB ASV FREE."

We remembered him in the prime of life as a gentleman gambler. We make that distinction between a professional gambler, who cheats at.cards, and one who plays skillfally but botatinnbly.

He had respectable acquaintances ; gentlemen moiled to him in a friendly,way ; his man ners were always correct.; and his,dress was neat, without being flashy. lie led the life of a gambler. however—to-day rich. to-morrow poor—with all the phases and changes incident to that oiling.

We are a progressive people.— Houses of a questionable, character used ,to be in nooks and corners, where no Imp burned—now they blase out in splendour quite near Broadway. and the lady abbess rides in her own 'carriage."
