The following anecdote ’ ^ 1U ' 'tTpOf \ of the Magnolio, arrived yesterday from Masters between this place and Charleston, though he displays a correct semblance of nature, is not less solicitous of displaying the miracles of his art, ami therefore enlarges his figures to a colassal dimension. The ancient historians compiled prodigies to gratify the credulous curiosity ofreaders ; but since prodigies have ceased, while the same avidity for the marvellous exists, mo dern historians have transferred the mira culous to their personages. Children read fables as histories, but Philosophers read histories as fables. I do not mean to say that fabulous history does not sornetimos convey much instruction. 1 think Voltaire in one of his letters, has let us into the secret, or mystery ofthe his torical art; for he there says—no writers but those who have composed tragedies, can throw any interest into history 5 that we must know how to paint and excite the pas sions, and that history, like a dramatic piece, must have situation, intrigue and catastro phe. This is an observation, which ap pears to have great truth in it; but, at the same time, it shows there can be little truth in such agreeable narrations If an histo rian is profound and politic, the character of his Statesman will resemble a political dei f y 11 lie is a writer, more elegant than profound, he delights in descriptive grandeur, in touch ing narratives of suffering beauty, and persecuted virtue. The fact is, we love not Lafayette Standard—Among the in- what we are, because it wants the grace of cidents which may he expected to add to the | novelty ; but we are pleased witli the wan- gratification ofthe citizens on the expected i derings of fancy, because they shoot far visit of the Guest of the Nation, as appears! above the limit of nature.

Washington’s Biiith-Day.—“ To gild refined gold,” or “to paint the lilly,” would not be more ridiculous excess, than ut this day to utteT an euiogium on the character of Washington. He was emphatically the beet, the greatest, wisest of mankind. He appears to have been sent on earth to vin dicate, not only the cause of his country, but to vindicate tho character of human na ture, and to prove how near man may ap proach to perfection. The simple, unadorn ed and natural majesty of the character of George Washington, casts in the shade, “all Greek, all Roman fame.” Like Cincin- natus, he was called from his plow; but he not only directed the sword of his country against her foes—he was her guide and father in peace, as he had been her cham pion and hero in war. Who would ex change the pure and spotless fame of our American Hero, earned by a life of patriot ism, of virtue, of goodness, of all that con- •titutes the truly great, for all the blood stained laurels of the devastators whom his tory has immortalized, wet with the tears of ♦Lew Buflbring fclluwiiimi f Tiie name of Washington is revered by the free ami enlightened of all the nations of earth.— Had he lived in the days of Grecian poesy, temples would have been erected to his honor—statues would have started forth frort, the marble of the sculptor—he would have been placed among the gods and pro tectors of his country—public games would have been devoted to his memory, and the imaginative faculty ofthe poet, would have been tasked to emblazon and immortalize hi* virtues, and his deeds.

Let us cherish it for the honor of our country— for the honor of republicanism—for the hon or of human nature. The Centella—We have made some further inquiry as to this vessel. It ap pears that the report ot the engagement and subsequent destruction of the Centella, was brought to Key West by one ofthe A- rnerican squadron, on the 9th instant, and was generally current there. By the arri val of the Magnolio, however, which left Havana on tho 1‘Jtli instant, we learn that nothing at that date was known there as to the circumstance. Navai.

We accustom ourselves to pay too liberal an admiration to the great characters re corded in modern, to say nothing- of ancient history. It seems often necessary to be humanity. Few circumstances are more consider her ns a Queen, we must some times consider her as a woman. The sym pathy we give to a princess, ravished from her throne and dragged by traitors, to wet with tears the iron grates of her dungeon, we may with no loss propriety bestow on that unfortunate female, whom unfeeling creditors have snatched from maternal du ties, or social labors, to perish by the hour in some loathsome prison. If we feel for the decapitation of a virtuous and long per scented statesman, we are not to feel less for that more common object, a man of ge nius condemned to languish in obscurity, and perish in despair. A great General dies in tho arms of victory, and his character reaches posterity, but he probably conduc ted hundreds whom nature intended for generals, hut whom fortune made loot sol diers. Katharine, the queen of Henry fith, is an object of our tendcrest sympathy; but why should our sensibility be diminished, when we look on those numerous females, not less gentle nor less cruelly misused.who without the consolutions of sovereignty are united to despots, not less arbitrary and brutal than Henry ? The sorrows ofthe Scottish Queen Mary, the refined insults of a rival sister, the scowl of scorn, and the implication of infamy, may penetrate our hearts; but we forget that there are families, where scenes not less terrible, and sisters not less unrelenting, are hourly discovered; anil that there are beau ties, who without being confined to the me lancholy magnificence of a castle, or led to the dismal honour of an axe, equally fall victims, to fatal indiscretion, or to fatal per secution. We hear that the sensibility of Mary’s grief, turned her beautiful tresses grey. Alas! how many, agonized by as sharp corrosives, yet who know not, as their sighs pass away unheard, that it is the set tled melancholy of their soul, which lias changed their hairs grey. If some consi der that a Queen is more wretched than an inferior individual, it may be replied that be tween two broken hearts, the grief must be much alike. The fascination which thus takes pos session of us in historical narratives, is therefore the artifice ofthe historian, assist ed by those early jitejudices of that sujieri- i ority which we attach to great characters. | on certain supjtosod occasions.
