Habits of Great Students. RMtn*<Mnfossd his verses while walking about, waiting them in a loud wniae. One day, while thus working at his. play of Eithridites, in the Tuilleriee Gulden, a crowd of workmeu gathered atWtttd hint,'attracted by hie gestures; they, took him to be a madman about to throw himself into the basin. On his rdfurn home from snch walks, he would write down scene by scene, nt first in prose, and when he had written it out, he would exclaim—“ My tragedy is done 1” considering the dressing of the act op in Verse as a very small affair. Magtiafceeehi, the learned librarian to the Puke of Tuscany, on the con trary, newer stirred abroad, but lived amidst books. They were his bed, beard, and washing. He passed eight apd forty years in their midst, only twice in the' coarse of his life ventured beyond the walls of Florence ; once to go two leagues off, and the other three and a half leagues, by order of the Grand Duke. He was an extremely frjgal man, living upon eggs, bread, and water in great moderation. Luther, when studying, always had his dog lying at his feet, a dog he had brought from Wartburg, and of which ha was very fond. An ivory crucifix stood at the table before him, and tbe walls of his study were stuck round with carrfcatures of the Pope. He worked at his dcak for days without going out; but when fatigued, and the ideas began to stagnate, took his guitar with him in the porch, and there executed some musical phantasy (for he was a skillful musician), when the ideas would flow upon him as fresh as flowers after a summer's rain. Music was his invaria ble solace at such times. Indeed Luther did not hesitate to say that after theol ogy, music was the first of arts—"Music,’’ said he, “is the art of the prophets; it is the only other art which, like theology, can calm the agitation of the soul, and put the devil to flight.” Next to music, if not before it, Lather loved children and flowers. The great gnarled man had A heart as tender as a wo man’s. Calvin studied in his bed. Every morning, at five or six o'clock, he had books, manuscripts, and papers carried to him there, nnd had he occasion to go out, on his return he went to bed again to continue his studies. In his latter years he dictated his writings to secreta. ries. He rarely corrected anything. The sentences issued complete from his mouth. If h(! felt the faculty of compo sition leaving him, he forthwith quitted his bed, gave up writing and composing, and went about his out-door duties for days, vyeeks aad months together. But as soon as he felt the inspiration fall upon him again, he went back to his bed,. And his secretary was set to wock forthwith. PaScal w'rote most of his thoughts on little scraps of paper. At his by mo ments Fenelon wrote his Telemachus in thf palace of Versailles, at the eburt of the Grand Monarque, when discharg ing the dutieg of tutor to the Dauphin. That a book go thoroughly democratic shonld have issued from snch a source, and be written by a prießt, may seem iii j a . DeQuincy first promulgated bis no tions of universal freedom of person and trade, of throwing alj. taxes on the land—the germ, harhaps, of the French Revolution—in the boudoir of Madame de PorppadoijCY ■ . . Bacon knelt down before composing his great work, and prayed for light nnd inspiration fronii keayen. Pope never, could compose well without first de claiming for some time at the top of his voice, and thjuS rousjtjg his nervous sys tem to its fullest activity. The life of Leibnitz wag one of read ing, writing, and maditatjpn, That was the secret of his prodigious knowledge. After an attack of the goat, he confined himself die* of *r«o4Yand milk.; Often he slept in a chair, and rarely went to bed till after midnight. Bome times H« was months without quitting his sea't, where lfe slept by night and wrote by day. He had an ulcer in his right leg, whiqh.nrerented bis walking about,-dren bad h 4 Wished to do so. —ls the South perish, let none think that the North c*n live. if . one die, both wiH die.
