The picture represents a noble lady in the prime and pride of her youthful beauty. The slender and ~ elegantly formed neck rises from superbly shaped shoulders, the head is cast in the lihest mould of classic loveliness, the broad and Some what severe brow is softened by eyes- of tender hue and wonderful brilliancy, the nose is as perfect in outline-as if Phidias himself hid chiseled it, the lips are slightly compressed, and sarcasm, rather than smiles, linger about them, and over the whole countenance there is flung that nameless,!lndescribable something which betokens daring and tinserdimlous ambition, coupled with exquiSite taste and restless fascination. The costume is that of the middlii of the last century, the hair being slightly powdered, a flow ing elaborately flowered 'brocade robe displaying the prettiest feet,-sheathed iii red-hebled slippers of quaint, but yet tastefid design. On tho thble upon which sholeans are a numlitir of volumes, among wl4ll we see MonteSquithfs Spirit of Lames and -"Encyclopedic; and an open album showing a small engrav ing of an artist plying his cunning grader in the portrayal Of the sensual HMl mentspf Louis XV. For this stately dame:ls Jeanne Antoinette Poisson, bet ter known to fame of a questionable sort under her courtly title of Madame de Pompadour. As a 'personage who, by her own misdeeds, and the pernicious influence she exercised upon her royal paramour, contributed as-much-of` more to the downfall of the Bourbon dynasty, and the political chaos in which France has struggled for nearly 100 years, she deserves and shall receive brief attention at our hands. The father of do Pompadour, or, as the old clfronicler wickedly phrases it, "her mother's husband"—was attached to the cummissarir. departMent of the French army, though.some biographers assert that ho was-•a 'the In valides, c3oialennied to bp hung, and Voltaire declares ho was a farmOr of the Fort sons J,owarte. But without dis erasing the question. of • .paternity, it is reglicientfor our purpos - e to Icuow that Je 61 4 1 Antoinnette .was born ., in Paris in 1720—0h0 herself always said in 1.77'3 —and when quite an.liffant was adopfed by' the Fernier Genoral,Lonornum do' Tournehoim, who appears, to have cher ished.rw,laa. a,,,mast, ardent affection.

There is no doubt that this matchless intriguanfe commenced to lay her plans for the conquest of a royal' lover while the orange hiossoMsworo yet fresh upon her 131:(w ; for silo, immediately arranged her household in accordance with the most aristecra4Wequirenicints, gathered in her saloons the most famous {V . 4 ...... beaux of the day, and did, all in her power to pique the curiosity and.secure the homage of,. Louis., In the gorgeous apartments Of the Hotel d'Jtoiles might be Fentinielle, who ,believedhi nothing, Voltaire; 'Who l :lilieved in less, Iclatiper. r , this, and Illontesiiiou,, both sooptios and mockers, and a hest of kindred spirits who delighted to bask in the smiles of their gracious hostess, and offer the in- I cense' Of adulation and flattery at her altar. In such an atmosphere the prim- ciples of -a saint would becoMp con - -N tamioated, but Madame drEtoiles was no saint—ouly the sweetost'of- sinners, and she grew , apace in knowledge and fascination, waiting impatiently for the some time when she could bring these forces to bear upon tho , throne:itself, where sat the ideal of her dreams. Among the roues' and literatcurs who fluttered-around-list-shrinezwaslone_p son for whom our heroine seems to have felt pure and unselfish regard. Pierre Bernard, a poet of considerable celebrity, whom Voltaire nicknamed Le flentil' Bernard. She' was accustomed to pet him like a spoiled child, and be returned, her kindness which never changed while life lasted. When she had attained' the summit of her ambition, and the patron age of alringdom was at her disposal, she said to him one day " what can I do for you, my dear poet ?" The poor rhyme ster could not utter a word, but sim ply raised her hand to his lips and kissed it. The marchioness received the caress with a laugh, merely remarking—"go to, Pierre, you will aver . get ou in the world." She gave him, however„ the appciintments of librarian to the King, and built for him at Choissy a charming cottage ornee,,which his brother bards used to.eall " - Paillasses -of the French Anacreon." Meanwhile Madame de'litoiles passed for, and for all we know was—the model of the virtuous wife, always declaring , that no nipin living could ever alienate her affections from their legitimate lord, unless that man should be the King of France. -.Louis heard of this curious reservation in his favor, but contented himself with saying : "I should very much like to see this husband." Tho lady than prepkred to go to Mahomet, as Mahomet showed no disposition to come up to the mountain, and sho be gan her attack in a thoroughly feminine manner. Monsieur do'Etoiles ()sped an old - chateau in the forest of Senart, and madame's health suddenly -failing, her skillful physician recommended a change of air and scene: What better place could 'there be -for a temporary home than the leafy dells of Senart, especially as the -King was in the habit of travers ing the forest with horn and hounds. The chateau was accordingly repaired and re-furnished t and the amiable invalid -took up her residence there. In order to facilitate her recovery, she had built three or four earri4;es of elegant styles, lend in these she drove out every day when the weather permitted, "some time," says Soulavio, "arrayed as a goddess from Olympus, sometimes as au earthly queen, at ono time she would appear in an azure robe, seated in a rose colored photon,-at another, in a robe of rose color in a pint:ton of pale blue." She met the; royal cortege frequently. On the first occasion Louis took no no tice of the brilliant equlpagO of its mis_ tress, cat' the second he complimented the horses ; oh the third he complimented the carriage, and on the fourth he made some trilling, remark upon the lady's beauty.

The Duke do .Valliers was stage manager and director, an abbe was Promoted to the prompterls phthe, and no ono of less rank • tlpsii a Marquis was_ -- admitted into the .troupol Tho audience was limited to a small selection from the proudest nobility of France,, and the first "piece presented was written by the poet, Dufresny, and entitled "Le- Marriage fait- of rompu" playful:illusion ; to the, marriage of La Pompadour with her discarded hus band cPEtoiles. She, herSolf, was the only actness of any real merit, and-in such characters as " Collette" in scan's "Dcvin do - Village" is said to have been wonderful effective, playing with a truth and tenderness which com pletely captivated all who saw her. The histrionic abilities of this marvelous wo man completed the conquest of Louis, and froth that time forth . , she reigned securely and without rival. -Born with -instincts naturally noble and refined, she endeavored to make the monarch .patron of art and hellos lottres, but the degenerate Bourbon was framed of too coarse material to be susceptible of such elevation, and she was forced to * eontent herself with maintaining her position, and allow him to follow the bent of his inclinations. That position was scifirmly fixed that neither cliques , nor cables could shake it. Through her instru mentality the fall of the Jesuits was de creed, she set up and pulled down minis— ters, made and unmade nobles, and oven shaped the foreign ' diplomacy of the kingdom. "Nth,- only," said she ono day to her confidante, the Abbe de Berths? " not only have I all the nobility at my feet, but even my lap (log is weary of their fawnings." It is through her policy that Corsica was annexed to France, and thus Napo leon Bonaparte owes his birth as a French citizen l to the far-seeing gcuim of Pom padour. Loving revenge as - only a wo man can, she rarely forgave and never forgot her enemies ; anincantions word sent Latude to the bastile ; an unlucki couplet caused the exile of the Minister Maurepas„ and Frederick of Prussia's jest about . " rogue do carnal]," laid the foundations for the Seven years . ' war. Every Sunday morning she held a re ception, to whidh all the most celebrated artists and literary men at court was in vited, and while the titled nobility of France were compelled to (lance attend ance in her ante chambers, the two Van loose, de la Tour, Boucher, Cochin, 'buck's and 'Crebillon were always promptly admitted and warmly welcomed But La Pompadour grow old, and as years rolled by they brought with them indisputable marks of age. One night during 1760 she was seized with violent trembling, and next morning her face, bore the traces of the first wrinkle. From that moment she showed herself in Paris no more ; and at court, only ap: pcared in public by a candle light, costumed like an • Oriental princess, crowned with a diadem of diamonds, her ,arms loaded with,jewoled bracelets, -and wearing a costly Indian shawl, embroid ered in gold and silver. In April, 1764, began the mortal illness, and %viten the cure of the Madeline, who attended her deathbed, was about taking leave, she whispered, " Wait a bit, Monsieur Ic Cure, we will go together," And these were the last words of Madame do Pom . Paden v. The heartless King ordered the corpse at once removed from the palace of her house in Paris, and standing by the win dow while the funeral train moved away iu theanidst of a violent hail storm, he remarked with a. grim smile : "The Marchioness -will have.-bad weather." And this was the eulogy and epitaph of MRditipp do Pompadour, Well might Diderot exclaim : Whiff now remains of this woman, .the denser of milliard,- who overthrew the entire politieal gysteni of Europe_ and left her country dishonored, powerless and impoverished, both in mind and re sources P ' ,, Tho treaty Of Versailles, which willi&seas iong-na it can, 'a 'statue by Bench:mien, alwayti',bo ad- Mired, a few stones engraved by Gay, which will astonish a. future generation of antiquarittus; , a pretty 'little picture by Vanloo- , -nina a handful of ashes." • • , IFroin tlioVn4lllnoth 811111 lay „ .„ • 4;iviivilo?rir,s runi,r(7' cPTItINY , II VPANEY. , , to, win friends tun 4 • kooptheni the eccrot.,of,a succerSful public mail. , Androw , Jneksoti, 'possessed, withont' Absolutely, courting- the, people..

Riper scholars tlian himself, older if not better statesmen, frankly , acknowl edged 'his leadershiP and faithfully followed his fortunes. But, among them all none came into Congress Toro devotedly attached to Douglas thaniJaines A. McDougall, who died shortly after the close of his term as a Senator in Congress from California. nineteenth of November, 1817, ho re moved to Piko county Illinois, when ho was just twenty years of age, and when Stephen A. Douglas was register of the Land Office at Springfield, in that State. There was four years' difference between ' the men, and they loved, each other like brothers. McDougall was chosen Attor ney General of the State in 1842, and re-elected in 1814. In 1849 ho originated and accompanied an exploring expedi tion to Rio del Norte, Gila, and Colorado ; afterwards emigrated to California, where ho followed his profession until he was chosen Attorney General of that State in 1859. He was sent-to CoOgresS for, one term, from 1853 to 1855, but de clined a re-election, and remained out of public life until he was mado a Senator in Congress in 1861, the term: of which he served out. He entered the Sonata as a War Democrat of the advanced School, and was for a while the represen tative of the ideas: for which, Broderick. fell at the hands of- Terry in. 1859. He advocated „the extremest 'measures, against the rebellion, and sustained the Lincoln Administration. But as the,ox ! citement grew, and sterner. measures were demanded, he gradually:fell back into the ranks of the old Democracy, and died in that faith. It can be no irreverence to his memory to say that James A. McDougall would have been living now if ho had not yielded to the' destroyer. When - I first saw iliac\ in i 858; as a Representative from California, he was the picture' of health and strength. Public life, with all its nations, was too much forh.ia. Gener ous to a fatilt, unusually disinterested, the enemy of alhcorruption, ho had the material for a long and useful life. Had he not discarded_ the •opp,ortimities in his 'path, and surrendered to the allure ments around him, ho might be still among 'us. Unlike some in the same body, McDougall rarely forgot his, place. If he committed excesses, it was outside the Senate chamber. Everybody loved him. I think he had not it personal enemy, and those who opposed, him politically admired his genius mid de plored his weakness. Some of his argu '‘meuts were specimens of complete logic. Ito was an adept in the law, He seldom forgot an authority, and his opinion on the gravest queStions was frequently sought and followed. Well versed iu the classics, familiar with ancient and modern poetry, his tastes, whether of books or men, were always refined. One of his last speeches is that which follows, prononticed from his seat in the Senate on the eleventh .of April, 1866, on the proposition of Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, to prohibit the sale of liquor 'n the Capitol building. It is given exactly as it fell from his lips, and is a sad, explanation of the cause which called him too, early from life to death, and of his peculiar habits of thought at a period when - he seemed to have entirely abandoned all hope of self-redemption : Mn.

After citing this incident l .d. said to this divine : " Do you remember that Lord Bacon said that a man should got drunk at least once a month, and that Montaigne, ,the French philosopher, en dorsed the proposition ?"- - -• These exaltants that bring us up above the common measure of -the brute—Wine and oil—plevate us, enable -us to seize great facts, inspirations which, once possessed, aro ours forever; and those who ndvor go beyond the mere beastly means of animal support never live in the high planes of life, and cannot achieve them.

Gerfitt Smith was born in Utica, Now York, March IS, 1797, - and is, therefore, in his seventy-fifth year - - living at Poterbore', New York, in fine health, I saw him several months ago in Whsh ington, the picture of ripe, vigorous, well-preserved old ago. The possessOr of immense wealth, which he.distributes with princely generosity, he tlelighted in gathering men of opposite opinio6s, and espeOtally„ the. Sentheni leaders, to his dinner. parties. I,llloi handstune .face and elegant manners, his kind, ,heart, native wit, and graceful hospitality, were made strangely / attractive hy; the fact that he never allowed a drop of wino or liquor at his entertainments.. .Every thing else was in profusion, and it was amusing to hear the Comments of those who never knew what it was to accept an invitation without anticipating co.. pious draughts of champagne,. sherry, or Madeira. Bold and manly in his opposition to slavery iu all its , forms, a powerful speaker, a consaicatkona legis lator. he mingled with the extreme men •of the South like a friend.

She lives In the bright and bustling city of Hartford, Connecticuti. And she is famil iarly but always respectfully known to the majority of the dwellers in that nest of flourishing insurance companies as the,AVidow Colt. She is the handsome and well , pre: Jsstdtvod relict, of Samuel - ',Colt, the man who, if ho did not invent the resolving .firearm, was Shrewd enough to reap the principal prOilt that accrued from the -discovery of that eminently American institution. • Having, with Arne Yankee tact, availed himself of the fruit of another man's brains, Colt progressively im proved upon all the world's precon ceived idea of facility in the popping oft' our fellowmen, and at the same time heaped up a remarkably handsome for tune for himself. Departing some ten years ago, he loft a magnificent property, inoluding a nice little estate valued at $i,000,000, to his wife. This estate, situated but a trifling dis tance-frour•the very business heart of the city, comprises a vast stretch of beautiful hill'and meadow land, so com plete in all of its appointments as to rank with the best .uf the Old World baronial properties. Mr. Colt had him self purchased the grounds, superin tended the major portion of their laying Out, °meted several 'line buildings, in cluding, tho faintly mansion and the principal manufactories,' and, a,4, can be judged fiorn the value of the place at his death, had created - one of the hand silmost of estates.' 11141 . 1 19 Bii , ,Glio, the enter prising husband has been so improved upon by the widow , that oven tho value and' b&Uity of the place have peen, yasuy • Among the singular attractions of the estate is ono of the most artistically de 'signed and Most Completely „appointed . . ,Chureb edifices.4l theectuntry.

An interesting fact is hinged upon this. When Mr. Colt procured his present ifelibitY;TvlirclillTefolia up from — tlio 'broad . meadow, that forms the westefilN., ;bank of the Connecticut river, he found N, that its value was much .impaired by certain little irregularities on the part of the stream. Regularly"every spring tho' well-covered hills and valleys of Massa: chusetts and Vermotit empty their molt ing snows into the waters {if theConnee tient, :Old a veil , decided freshet is the invariable result. A general flooding of, the meadow lands always ohmic's. Mr. Colt discovered that this annual exuberance on the part of. the river, con verted his broad grounds into extensive but altogether useless po übi and lakes, and so, like Horace • Q coley,' at the aPpearanCei of any now dilemma, ho commenced a sYsteinatio course of damming. Ile at once built an enormous dyke that in length and uniform solidity would have delighted a Hollander. Then; to prevent. the waters from washing out and gradually undermining his work, ho proceeded to plant the sides of the embankmentwitli famous swiss willows, the interfwining ropts of which are so °lege - and dornpact as to defy the angriest, aCti %Lot' the floods. TO ambine active business with corn- LailToBB, energetic Mr. Colt's life. The which in the importation and setting out had, cost him a deal of money,. must be made to return him a handsome revenue. To this end he coaxed over a' large number_ of Swiss makers, of willow ware, built them a dozen or inure beautiful little chatelets, and set them to work at .their trade at double the wages they had been•receiving in their own tight little republic. . - A wide carriage road flanked by pleasant foot paths extends over the dyke at present, the willows, which in root and branch, arc doing such excellent, service, forming a pleasant fringe of verdure along its entire length.. The dhateleta are still occupied by Swiss, most of them, however, 'from County Kerry, and the land of the blarney stone. Mrs. Colt has continued to wear at least half mourning, ever since liar husharia's'death. This must not by any Means indicate that she is a woman who revels in a chronic state of gloom. To the contrary, she is a brilliant lady, who receives and entertains her friends, in a manner so pleasant, as to rendei:lt, a particular favor to be ranked an acquaint ance. Her Wednesday evening outdoor coteries, are to be rated as the most elegant and enjoyable of the American summer social season. > As stated, the beautiful inernoriat church was erected by her, as a place of worship, for the operatives in her shops, and other families. The form of service is .the Episcopal, and the rector is salaried at Mrs. Colt's expense. So, too, is the organist. The singing is fur nished by the well-trained voices of tho Sunday school children. So fine, however, Was the church and its appointments, that it straightway became the most fashionable place of worship hi tlic . l . ,city. The fact that it is Situated 's. lolig distance from their homes made not the least difference with these. sons and daughters of Divas. So por• sistent did they become in their devo tions at the, shrine of the dead pistol makei that Lazarus and his family were overawed froin further attendance. This was not ~what the owner of the place wished, so she has since set apart special hours each Sunday in which her humble employees may worship unabashed by the presence of grander ((visitors. Among the more enviable features of Mrs. Colt's prequisites are that her grounds contain great ponds fairly alive with enormous gold and silver fish; that the lands aro adorned with exquisite statuary, including a small but other• wise surprisingly close copy of the " Amazon ;" that such enviable delica cies as fresh figs, oranges, poaches, etc., are obtaitialile front her mammal' hot houses the whole year around ; that her huge conservatories contain a collection of 'rare exotics unsurpassed in this countcy, and that, in fact, she has within 'her grasp all that an enormous fortune handled with appreciative lavishness and oulttiro can procure.
