His students are said to have practised oc

the doctor should meet, in the very thres
hold of his class-room, bis most dreaded foe.
Home he went, like one under the influ

in the "Minstrel,” in which ha apostrophi

IVlien Freedom s t,saner sit's in night.
And glory leaves the world below;
Oil! who shall bring it back to light
And bid its stars more brightly glowf
Her sons shall startle at her call
And raise her banner from tho grave,*
lfar sons shall mount the fortress wall,
And shout witli glory, “lzt hkr wavs;"
Yes, let Irar wave while time shall last,
The symbol of the mighty free,
Nail, nail her strongly to the mast, l
And white she floats o’er land and sea—
Let vengeance scute the wretch that dare
One star to blot or stripe to tear—
llat horns, ix with the Eagle's flight,
Her fkme is traced id morning light.
Let Crescents and Palmettos ware
By wide Bosphors** classic shore,
IFiisre miscreants dig religion’s grave;
Or butlio their bratal bands in gore—
Bat let no impious mortal fling
Another banner to the lislil,
While Freedom's Eagle spreads her wing
Above Columbia’* mountain height;
'Twere better for to die mid fire
Titan raise another banner higher, J, E. D.
INTERVIEW WITH ROBERT BURNS,
It was uboul the year !7'J5, that I made
a lour for Scotland, with the solo hope ol
seeing Burns. I was successful. On
my arrival at Edinburgh, where I had
some literary acquaintance, 1 obtained a
letter ef introduction to him. 1 had al w y»
keen a great admirer of his genius, and ol
many traits in his charactei; and 1 was a-
ware that he was a persou moody, and
somewhat difficult to deal wi(h. I was re
solved to keep ill full consideration the ir-
rit;|bility of Itis position in society. About
a tuile from Iris residence, on a bench, uu
dnr a tiee, I passed a figure, which from
the engraved portraits ol him, I did not
doubt wns the pool; but I did not venture
to address him. On arriving at Iris bum
ble collage, Mrs. Burns opened the door;
also whs the plaiu sari of hum Wo woman
sho Iras been described; she ushered me
into a uoaf apartment, and said that Ihe
would send for Burns, who was gone for u
walk. One of the children rau for him;
lie was used to sucli visits. In ubout hull
an hour ho came, und iny conjectur e proved
s ight; be was the pffrsou I bad seen ou tho
bench by the road side. At first I was not
cutiicly pleased with his countenance; it
was not only dark and somewhat coarse
and vulgar, but did not look good teiu;iered.
I thought it had a Sort ol capricious jeal
ousy, us (if he was hull iuclinod to treat rau
as ui intruder. 1 resolved to bear it, mid
try il I could humour him. I let him choose
his turn of conversation, but said a lew
! words about the Iriuud whose loticr 1
I brought lo him. It was now uboul lour in
| the afternoon of an autumn day. While we
talking, Mrs Burns, as if accustomed to ens
tertaiu visitors in this way, bi ought in “
howl of Scotch whiskey, sot the Uble und
laid oa pipes mid tobacco. 1 nccep ed thi-
hospitality. I could not help observing
the curious glance with winch he wacli,,

A little boy, about four yeers of age, lay
very still one morning, after a fine night’s
sleep, as if in deep thought. His parent*

Dandies in Jet.—Of all dandies the
negroet in America are ihe most intolera
ble; a fashion, to come op to their idee of
teste, Cannot be too outre; let it he ever so
ridiculous, they adopt it immediately.—
When I was in New York, striped trowsert,
kid gloves, three or fobr feet of guard
chain for tho watch, and gold headed canes,
were the “ correct thing;” with two thirds
of (he sable countenance concealed by the
well starched collar of the shirt. On Sun
day afternoon, when all the streets in the
city appeared edtirely given tip to the Af
rican world, il was a high treat lo witness
twitching of canes nnd important strut of ihe
one sex, and the affected dangling of para
sols aud reticules of the other,—Hamilton'e

•Ou'—A transitive verb -A teacher not
long since in explaining the difference be
tween transitive nnd iuiianaitive verbs, told
the classes that Ihe verb 'go* was iotrioxi-
tivo boesuse it would not make sense with
the words a person or a thing after it,
When a little fellow loking very significant
ly at him said ; "Sir, dout people go (he
whole hog sometimes!”
Donna Maria.—As his young Mist it
now the subject of much conversation and
reuiaik, a description of her person may not
bu uninteresting- A letter from Havre,
of the 8th nit. say*,—"I have teen Donna
Maria mice. Although not 15 years old,
sire has the appoarnneo of 20. H JT eye
is the duly feature which pleases. She hss
a small, brilliant pioreing eye, which give*
her co .nenance • great deal of animation.
She is very let, hat a wide mouth, and
projecting tooth. She i* hy ao meant ugly,
hut simply good looktug. Her dress is ex
tremely simple; a white gown, aud sky blue
bonoet, trimmed very neatly, mid uo orna
ment whatever. I like this .implicitly very
much.”
