Josiah Quiucy.J 1 bad two opportun itied of listening to 3lr. K&ndoljphin the Senate, and was completely fascinated by his extraordinary gifts as a talker; for it was not oratory (though at times he would produce great oratorical effects) so much as elevated conversation that h poured forth. Iiis speeches were charming or provoking according to the point of view of the listener. To a Senator anxiouf to expedite the public business, or to hurry through the bill he had in charge, Kandolph's harangues upon all sorts ot irrelevant subjects must have been very annoying; but to one who was not troulbed by such responsibilities they were a delightful entertainment. There was no effort about the speeches. They were given with absolute ease, the speaker constantly changing his position, turning from side to side, and at times leaning against the rail which inclosed the Senatorial chairs. Iiis dress was a blue ridingcoat, with buckskin breeches; for he always rode to the Senate, followed by his black servant, both master and man being finely mounted. Hi3 voice was silvery in its tones, becoming unpleasantly shrill only when con veying direct invective. Four-fifths of what he said had the slenderest possible connection with the subject which had called him up; but, so far as the chance visitor was concerned, this variety only added a charm to the entertainment. On the Hth of February, 1826, the introduction of a bill for surveying a portion of Florida with a view to a canal route, brought Mr. Randolph to his feet. This project was favored by the other representatives of the South, and it was easy to see how provoked and embarrassed they felt by opposition in a quarter so unexpected. Bat Randolph, who had always strenously denied the power of Congress to make internal improvements in the States, would not willingly concede it in the case of the Territories, lie could not find it written in the bond that the monev of the people should be poured out for local improvements anywhere. Johnston, of Louisiana, put in a reply, in which he used Mr. Randolph as a Southern ally with great tenderness; but intimated that, as Cuba commanded, the key to the Gulf o' Mexico, its possession by a firstclass naval power would be highly injurious to Southern interests, The canal would be in some sort a protection against this dire possibility. "If all constitutional restraints are to bo pushed aside, let us take Cuba and done with itl" said Randolph, in reply. Johnston's special pleading was dubbed an argumentum ab inconvenienti, and he was urged to consider tne consequences uie word was uttered with significant emphasis) jn , . 1 . TT T J 11. which mip-ht ensue. Here Randomh paused and looked his fellow-öouthernera well over. Could they notBOe that, by taking this bait ot internal improvements to strengthen their peculiar institution of slavery, they openea tne way tor mo geuerat uuveniment to interfere to its disadvantage? The words were unspoken, but the look conveyed their meaning with perfect clearness. He concluded in a strain of the bitterest irony: "But what care we for consequences? Only the timid and the purblind look to consequences! No, sir; your gallant statesman, mounted on his Rosinante ana fairly in the lists looks to no consequence a pause ex cept to his own consequence 1' The sarcasm provoked no angry retort from Havne. of South Carolina, who now entered the debate with the grace and for bearance of a polished gentleman. He be lieved in drawing a distinction between State and Territory, and took occasion to say that South Carolina had spent nearly $2,000,000 in making her own canals and roads. The Territories resembled the District of Columbia, over which no one doubted that the authority of Congress wad paramount. ft sr "- 1 t . 1 1! 1 1 1 1 jur. n&naoipn repnea dv noiuing up a copy of the CoLstitution, in a somewhat theatrical style, and declaring that it was a .a -. 1 t 1 V a am lite tne uiDie, wnicn nis irienus iound use ful for preserving their receipts and deeds, but which they never opened. He dispesed of the comparison to the District of Columbia very effectually, showing that the omnipotent sovengn authority that Con gress might there exercise was wislely differ ent from the power to make needful regula tions which was conceded over the Territor ies. The authors of the Constitution, he said, never suspected how their political machine would work; and after pointing out l ; i .i.;- . i i ineir misapprenensions in mis particular, ne disposed, of thee worthies by exclaiming, with a superb wave of the hand: "And snch is political foresight I" Interesting as was Mr. Randolph's part in this debate on the canal question, my friends assured me tnat l naa not yet heard him at hisbest, or worst. But it was my p;ood fora. a. X . 1 r. . w . tune u) w present in tne senate some two wee aiterwaru, wnen ne gave wnat was universally allowed to be one of the most chart ctenstic speeches he ever made. This was in reference to the Panama Mission, an absorbing topic of public interm. 1 t -a en ana one wnicn created on both sides feelings as intense have ever been shown in our National Leg- . . .... " lslature. lhe conndition of certain South American States had recently been chanced from that of subject colonies to independent Republics, and the project was formed of assembling on the Isthmu of Panama a Congress, at which each of them should be represented, to deliberate upon subjects com mon to ai. x no unuea Elates were asked to take a leading part in this ' assembly, and the invitation had been ac cepted, and Plenipotentiaries appointed bv the Executive. The Northern States warmly approved this course, which seemed to be in the line of what should be the National sentiment. The monarchies of Europe had formed a "Holv Alliance'' to crush liberty in the Eastern Hemisphere. What could be more suitable than for the Republics of the West to unite in a much holier union to maintain it? By the South this interrogation was met by the cry that a fearful crisis was at nana; ana, wnno some oi its more astute representatives confined their scruples to questions of constitutional law and National policy, John Randolph and the hotter spi.-its blurted out the real objection to the scheme. The South would never con sult with Nation who had put the black man on an equality with the white and.

horror upon horrors, were known to have mulatto Generals in command of their Armies. From this opposition arose the party which finally plaetnl Jackson in the I'rebideiitial chair; a party whose stock in trade at this time consisted of bitter vituperation of the Administration and at the head of which Randolph took hi natural Elhce. John Quincy Adams, to t's lasting onor be it said, refused to remove from high offices men who had joined a party which imputed to his Administration all that was corrupt and base. They bad a rit;ht, he declared, to support such men and measures as they 6aw fit; and he would never punish a man for awy criticism upon his own political acts, however offensively it was conveyed. The debate in the Senate upon the proposition to send Ministers to the Congress at Panama had been held with closed doors. This was the custom when the appointments of the Executive were considered and, consequently, there was no audience for VSp stirring appeals which rumor attributed To Randolph. Rut the fiery Southron had no notion of confining a vehement expression of his feelings to a petty Senatorial group, lie must address a larger assembly, and he saw how to make the opportunity. On the 1st ot March he suddenly sprung a resolution upon the Senate which called upon the Executive to communicate information concerning the views of the South American Republics relative to the emancipation of slaves. The demand was, of course, absurd, as the President could possess no information upon the subject that was not open to any inquirer; but it served the purpose of abolishing the secret session, and admitting the public to hear Mr. Ran-

dolph's views about the Panama Mission and about sides. a great many other things beHe began with sarcasm. It was well known that the President of the United States maent to send Ministers to the Congress that was to assemble at Panama, lie fervently hoped that these Ministers would labor under none of the odious and exploded prejudices which revolted the over-fastidious Southern gentleman and repelled him from associating on terms of equality with persons of African descent. He hoped that the Ministers who had been app in ted were prepared to sit down humbly with the native African, the mixed breedc, and the Indian and to take no offense at the motley mixture. General Bolivar, whom somebody had called "the South American "Washington," was then handled without gloves. "I remember, sir," said Mr. Randolph, "that when the old Earl of Bedford was condoled with by a hypocrite on the murder of his son, Lord Russell, ho indignantly replied that he would not exchange his dead son for the living son of any man on earth. So 1 would not give our dead Washington for any living Washington, or (whatever may be the blessings reserved for mankind in the womb of time) for any Washington who is likely to live in your time, Mr. President, or in mine." After pouring out his usual wealth of illustration and miscellaneous knowledge, Mr. Randolph took up Cuba, from which island he asserted that the whole country on the Gulf of Mexico could be invated with row-boats. If other States were to take possession of this island, the genius of universal emancipation would proclaim its anathema against the white population; and then what would be the consequence to the Southern States? "This is one of those cases,M he exclaimed, "in which the suggestion of instinct the instinct of self-preservation was worth all the logic in the world. It is one of those cases in which our passions instruct our reason 1" But Mr. Randolph's great effort (if I mi.y so call a performance which to him was evidently no effort at all) was roserved for the next day. He announced that he should ask for the consideration of his resolution immediately upon the meeting of the Senate and that meant that another speech would be forthcoming. I was early upon the spot, and for two hours held my attention fixed by his various and fluent improvisations, his cutting irony, his terribly sinough absolutely undeserved deiiunciations. His memory and imagina tion seemed inexhaustible. He would take a subject (almost any which happened to get nia way turn and twist it about, dispfa J - . .... - . . . ! lay it in some fantastic light, and then, with That famous dictum of scorn, push it aside. the Declaration of Independence concerning the equality of men, which thirty years after Kufuä Choate styled "a glittering generality, " Randolph pilloried as "an idle ianfKrronade." The pernicious falsehoods contained in these general ex pressions were in a certain sense true, and so were especially rnigleading. He compared Mr. Jefferson's statement" to that of a oerson who should eay that the soil of Scotland was as rich as that of Kentucky, because there was no diffrence in the superficial contents of the acre During a pause in the discourse Hayne rose, and urged the speaker to postpone his call upon the Executive, at the same time complimenting him warmly upon his speech. Taking up the word, Randolph declared that he could make no regular speech. Not that this was to be regretted, for, like many other regular things, regular speeches were apt to be exceedingly dull, lhe general effect of such speeches was a want of any effect whatsoever. What he did was to imitate an Italian iroprovisatore, taking up subjects that he had well thought out. He considered that the world had been greatly injured by parliamentary eloquence, which was no qualification for Government. Fox, to bo sure, was a statesman, as well as a de bater; but the dialectics of Pitt had be in the curse of England. He was admirably qualified for a Professor of Rhetoric, and might have held that chair at Cambridge in Old or New England (a thrust at Mr. Adams, who had been Professor of this art in Harvard College); but as a statesman he was a tyro and his great measures all failed. In concluding, Randolph told a storv of some wiseacre, who wa3 sent to search the vaults of the Parliament House at the time oi the Gunpowder Plot. Thi3 tavthical personago'reported that he found fifty barrels of powder, and had removed twentv-five of them and hoped that the rest would do no harm. 'The step vou are about to take," exclaimed the speaker, the characteristic outstreatched foreflnzer pointing the emphasis. 1 "applies the match to the powder; and, be I . I. - v -' . there twenty-five or nity Darrels, there is enoujrh to blow not the first of the Stuarts but the last of another dynasty sky-high sir 1 Yes. sir, sky-high I" And sky-high rose the voice of Mr. Ran dolph, as if to follow Mr. Adams in his aerial flight. There was no savor c f the ridiculous in this passionate climax. The speaker's thoroughgoing sincerity pre vented such a suggestion, lhe old saying thai language was given to man to conceal his thoughts has a percentage of trnth m it Most men are conscious of selecting and modifying the product of the mind, with a view to their suitable presentation. The interest of Randolph's speeches was that he simply exposed his intellect and let you see it at work. It was like catching Webster or some other great orator in his library and looking over the rough notes he had re jected. There one might find figures of rhetoric a little too showy for good taste; blunt expressions of opinion which had been softened and draped in ambiguous phrases. It is possible that such a survey might increase our admiration for the artist, at the expense of our respect for the man. tsut, after hearing K&rdolph speac or con verse, the feeling was that you had come in contact with the essential personality of this Virginian Hotspur, and that there was much there which iustifled the affection which his friends felt for him. A gentleman whom I met in Washington had returned with Randolph to his plantation after a session of Congress, and testified to me of the affection with which he was

regarded by his slaves. Meu and women rushed toward him, seized him by the hand with perfect familiarity, and burst into tears of delight at his presence among them. His conduct to these humble dependents was like that of a most affectionate father among his children, and it is well known that, when he could no longer protect them, he emancipated them by will and provided for their support in a free State. The time has not yet come to- estimate with impartiality the class of Southern gen. tlemen to which Randolph belonged. Many of them were men of grrat ability and singular fascination of manner. Once accept their premises (and these premises were to them as the axioms of mathematics), and are they knightly figures fighting upon that side of the irrepressible conflict which protected their families and the civilization, such as it was, which had produced themselves and the high-spirited caste into which they were born. The incendiarism which would light the torch of servile insurrection and plunge their fair possession into barbarism seemed to them far worse than that which fired warehouses and. dwelling?, which a few months of labor might replace. It is unnecessary here to enlarge upon their errors or delusions, which every school-boy now deems himself able to expose. Of Mr. Randolph I saw too little, and I look with sincere regret upon this kind note from him, interleaved with rny journal and written the day I left Washington. It bids me come and dine with him at "Haroards if I make out the name correctly, a confectioner's shop near the Seven Buildings." There 1 should have met a small circle of his friends, with the consequence of much pleasure to mvself, and possibly to the readers of the fndepemdent, half a century later, of further reminiscences of John Randolph, of Roanoke. Something About th; Knjrllah rauch of the Itothchild. I Whitehall Review. Mr. Nathan Meyer Rpthchild had received letters of denization from George III. in 1804. We constantly read in the papers of the early part of this century of his conferences with the Duke of Wellington and other statesmen of his time. In 1822, on the advice of Prince Metternich, he received the dignity of liaron of the Austrian Empire, at Vienna, and when he died his descendants had permission, by royal license from the Queen of England to bear the the same style and title of .Baron. This founder of the English house of Rothchild lived in New Court street, Swithin's Lane, where the office of the great firm still is, and 1 have heard one who remembered those days relate that, visiting the Baroness ofthat date, he found the floor ßtrewn with bars of gold, which had been temporarily placed for security in her own. boudoir, so that she and her children trod literally upon gold. That was the Baron Rothchild of the city, the most capable and trusted head of an eminently trusted family. He was the father of three sons, of whom the youngest was married recently. There was another Baron Rothchild, as popular as his brother in society, and able to see moro of it; and also a great upholder of the turf, on which after along -career of adverse fortune, he finally won the Derby with that splendid Favonius. When he died his brother, Baron Lionel, took care tfiat the racing establishment which gave employment to so many hard-working tyople should not be broken up, and Mr. Leopold de Rothschild, under tho name of Mr. Acton, directed for

his father the training and races of the horses, and won a second time for the house of Rothchild the blue ribbon of the turf. The other of the elder trio of brothers was Sir Anthony de Rothchild, whose magnificent house at Aston Clinton was often thronged with distinguished and interesting guests. Neither Sir Anthony nor Baron Meyer left sons; the younger trio of brothers are sons of Baron Lionel. A daughter of the house had previously married a Fitzroy. The two daughters of Sir Anthony married. in like manner, beyond the pale of their ancient race. Mr. Cyril Flower became the husband of one, and the late Hon. Constan tino Eliot York of the other. Miss Hannah de Rothschild, the only daughter of the late Uaron Meyer, became .Lady Kosebery, and has given birth to an heiress of that house. Mrs. (lower and Mrs. Eliot York published. as girls, an elaborate work on the religion and literature of the Israelites, in which the influence of Dr. Kalish on their education is perceptible; Lady Kosebery is the authoress of an article on Jewish women (she wa3 then Miss Hannah de Rothchild); which appeared in one of the quarterlies; and Baroness Lionel de Rothchild has received high praise from the critics for a charming collection of stories and essays and other works. Baron Ferdinand and Miss Alice de Rothchild, who represent what was once the Neapolitan branch of the family, are much esteemed in English sciety. Baron ferdinand married Evelina, a daughter of Baron Lionel, and when she died he founded, and still maintains in memory of her the Evelina Hospital, in South London. The Uothchilda of Frankfort and Vienna, the Rothchild villa at Fregny, near Geneva, their ülind Hospital at Geneva, their Hospitals at Jerusalem, and elsewhere are wellknown. The head of the English house, Sir Nathaniel Meyer de RothchUd, M. P. for Aylesbury, who by a special limitation in the letters patent, 'succeeded his uncle, Sir Anthony, in the Baronetcy, married among his own people. Baroa Lionel had wedded a beautiful daughter of the house of the Neopolitan Rothchilds. Sir Nath1 Ty i m v-k aniei married trama, aaugnter oi .baron Charles de Rothchild of Frankfort. Mr. Alfred de Rothchild, the second son. remains unmarried. Now Mr. Leopold Lionel de Rothchild has chosen as his bride a daughter of the respected Jewish family w 1 m a -a a -a caiiea x'erugia, oi lneste, previously allied in marriage with tbo great oriental banking uouse- oi oassooa. There has always been a division of labor between the brothers who have directed the conduct of the house. Sir Nathaniel has a longer experience in politics and finance. Mr. Alfred de Rothchild, who is the gov ernor of the Bank of England, represents the firm on many philanthrophic and state occasions. Mr. Leopold de Rothchild is the- almoner of the charities of his mother. and continues the racing establishment and the assidious cultivation of the social graces and duties which distinguished his uncle, Baron Meyer. But no hard or fast line can be drawn between the occupations of ihe three brothers. Their provinces overlap and interlace. Their quickness of intelli gence and warmth of heart forbid either of them to entirely abandon any one part of the vocations which make up the brilliant and useful life of the modern banker-phil-anthrophist. Of their success in society nothing need be said, lhey have the means and the will to collect everything which can make life agreeable to their friends; and they have the refinement of taste and genuine kindliness of heart which make their other capacities for giving a zest to life valuable and effctive. From their youth upward they have been accustomed to associate with the ablest, the most highly placed, and most charming of mankind. Discipline In Childhood. I Lord. Jeffrey. Youne people who have been habituallv gratified in all their desires will not only indulge more in capricious desires, but will infallibly take it more amiss when the feelings or happiness of others require that they should be thwarted, than those who have been practically trained to the habit of sub duing and restraining them, and consequently will, in general, sacrifice the happiness of others to their own selfish indul gence. To what else is the selfishness o Princes and other great people to be atwiuunju ( xi is in vain to imnit oi cultivating principles of generosity and beneficence

by mere exhortation and reasoning; nothing but the practical habit of overcoming our own selfishness, and of familarly encountering privations and discomfort on account of others, will ever enable us to do it when required. Indulgence infallibly produces selfishness and hardness of heart, and nothing bu severe discipline and control can lay the foundation ef a magnanimous character.

Two of a Kind. Mr. Edward Compton, in the Era "Almanac," tells the following stories: Another actor, I recollect, made a ludicrous blunder in Macduff's great scene in the fourth act of "Macbeth.' He was enacting ''Rosse'' on the night in question, and one of Lis many parts for that week had been ''Horatio,'' which lie had struggled with the night before. Students of Shakspere will remember that the following dialogue occurs in "Hamlet" when that young gentleman is questioning "Horatio",and ''the rivals of his watch" as to the appearance of the ghost: Hamlet Stayed it long? Horatio While one, with moderate haste, might tell a hundred. Marcellus and Bernardo Longer! longer 1 Horatio Not when I saw it! With these remarks fresh on his mind he entered as 'Rosse'.to fte as "Macduff,'' and1 to my utter consternation, instead of replying to my anxious inquiry as to where Scotland stood at that moment, with the beautiful speech commenjcing, "Alas, poor country, scarce able to knw itself,'' etc., he completely staggered me by answering in a dazed state, but quite seriously thus: Macduff Stands Scotland where it did? Rosse Not when I saw it. The finish of the scene did not, on this occasion, produce its tearful accompaniment. I was playing "Romeo' one night at Birmingham, and we had arrived at that scene which finishes with tho killing of "Tybalt" by the sword of ''Romeo." As this scene is usually "closed in" well up to the stage1 to allow "Juliet's" chamber to succeed it immediately, the representative of the fiery Tybalt is always asked to die in the third or fourth entrance (i, e. at the back of the stage), and to lie close until the flats are run on and he is hidden from view. Tybalt received my sword in the usual effective fashion, and, treating the audience to a tremendous "backfall," dropped down stiff and stark, and dead 1 Tha prompter at once gave the signal for the fiats to be pulled on, but alas I the sceneshifters were pulling at something else, and did not respond, the only movement being a shuffling of feet, caused by some of the employes rushing "next door" to fetch the delinquents. Having heard the whistle, and listened to the consequent shuffling of feet, our friend Tybalt concluded that all was right, and, calmly sitting up, he very methodically put his collar to rights, fidgeted, with a button at his neck, decently pulled dfrwn his Shakspearean shirt, and, shaking the dust off his wig, turned round to get up, when to his astonishment and dismay he encountered the amused gaze of the large audience fixed intently on him I With a horrified "My G 1" he rapidly measured his length a eecond time, and, the scene-shifters having returned, the flats were rapidly run on, amid the uproarious laughter of every spectator before and behind the scenes!
