It is Impossible to tree Sir Stanley without an Inv*, notary feeling of respect; hie voice, one of thereon tar erring tests ofhigh breeding, confirms the impression . and his well-chosen. words, always few in nurame, convey his ideas so distinCtly, that/on know at once exactly what he desires you thourd knew, sod no Mom; He was never flatly contradicted in his life but once. It was by an American, and ever since, no one has cared to mention America in his presence.— Not that he was ever guilty of flying into a passion.-v• Mrs Brande, the 'venerable housekeeper,wbo furs lived (to quote her own words) 'in his honor's service half a century and two yeurs," told me she never heard him raise his voice.

Mr Stanley has numbered more than seventy years; yet his politeness is in perfection. From being a strict - lover of forms, the first attentions are paid to those whose position in society demand them; but be has the. . happiest manner of preventing his humbler guest from fueling or even perceiving, that the slightest difference exists in the citcurnstancos of any parteker in the bos om pitality of Stanley Pleastionce. His walls are bung with tapestry, or old pictures; his hull, lofty and noble, in its proportions, is a perfect museum of old English implements of sport and war; stag hounds and a pair of genuine English mastiffs act as sentinels at the porch, and his stud is unrivaled. He keeps a falconer, and his hawks are the beet train ed in England. His preserves are filled with game; and perceiving it to he his duty to provide for the amusement of "his people ' ". uld_-, fashioned enough - to . call end Consider Us tenant+. the May-Pule is as carefully preserved as his Dutch flower garden, the village bowling green and his park, and the state ute fair is clearly a matter of interest to the lord of the manor as too.the peasants. He caters in every possible way for the amusement of his visiters; but when he tells them how they ought to be amused, be expects that they will be so. He thinks that:England is the world, that is, that all the perfections of the four quarters of the globe are congregated therein.— He always listens to the accounts of modern improve ments with a polite smile of disbelief, and would as soon think of Lakin/ his seat in a balloon as on a rail toad. He loves to keep up old eustemr, has a Wide toe hung in the hall.an oa roasting is hole, and a hogt• head of '•humming beet" broached fur the entertain ment of the villagers at Clitistmns, and turns the first two couple. to the tune of Roger de Coverly, at the ea customed ball on New Year's eve, then resumes his seat—a carved, high hick chair, raised by a i iP thers - single step above , and looks grakely on at the fess , l tivities, It would he di cult to determine why Mr. Stanley sees so much company, and why be gives' himself 60 mirth trouble, which every one says yield him no platy . sure. His habits, manners, words, and Smiles, are all the result of a species of duty. which he thinks as firmly entailed as the family estates. The society of the distinguished, whether for rank or talents the com pliments of the polite, nay. the very blessings of the poor, the vvi•low, end the fatherless, on whom he is ever confer' ing benefits, do not reach, much less warm, his heart. If there is needed proof how little wealth, station. and high birth have to do with happiness.-that bright. - fountain of light, which is of itself a sun in the dark places of tho earth, warming and illumiluttir.g all with the click of its rays—the matter of Stanley Pleasto ance would be the example, of all others, I should se* leer to show the incompetency of what is most aerated, to yield the rich fruitage which is the object of out latices and ambition. It is said that George the fourth was an much charm ed by the manner and appeamnce of Mr Stanley, that he cussed it to be communicated to him that, ifbe pleas ed, he migir. be elevated to the peerage. "I thank his Majesty," answered the gentleman; " but I have no son." "But, sir," replied the nobleman who conveyed the gracious message, "you have a nephew." A deep shadow passed over Mr Stanley's face; and, lest his voice should beuay any emotion, he paused be fore he nnsevred:— "One, sir, unworthy to bear my woe, much lest* be honored by his Majosty." Mr Stanley. though providence bad crushed his am. iririon, by denying him children by his first marriage, and ordained that, dating the life of his third wife he should follow two noble boys to the grave, hed still a child of the second mariage, to watch overlaid co [minion his old age, though she knew she hid not the power to render it happy. But if Alice Stanley bad not the power to ma feithst happy; if the feeling that his priecipal estate was sa strictly entailed as it must go to the nephew whom. justly or unjustly, be hated with a bitterness that lent its flavor toevery.portion of his existence, Alice Saar ley both possessed and exercised the power of cheer. ing every other heart and brightening every other eye.
