We think decency of language and statement as desirable iu literature as other callings, an ! have as little taste for what is cal- U& a “ slashing” article as for any thing else that is vulgar or ill-mannered. But Mrs. Sarah Mytton Maury has written a book much too as tonishing and extravagant to be described in or dinary critical language. It shall therefore de scribe itself, in a series oiextracts lor the delect tion of the curious. We must prciace them by stating that Mrs. Maury is an Englishwoman, who, having been married for nineteen years to an American mei ebant resident in Liverpool (wc derive these facts from the book,) and projHisiiig that her femily of sons and daughters, eight in number, shall one day make their fortunes- in the Re public, not only goes for the entire Oregon, but \ ferns alighted on the rcasouabie conclusion that \Americu flogs England altogether “in all the ysential advantages of life.” With this belief jp traveled through the States during the first je months of last year, accompanied by one | _ y gons. a lad whom she culls “the Ooctor. **TvSaKion procured her letters of intiuduc- S**%TLrtrd Aberdeen to Mr. Pakenhau, and _ Wj Mr. Pakeuham civil, and Mr. Paken- Ojle an o&r of his services. “ But i was aZ* and required them not.” Inde ”nbuds Us way to every American heart, ,rhn ® c ‘*’ aud ever J r American “A 1 ” 1 Pre *>eturned the compliment in her ! * iß, *. car ? ° Vt she meant to write a book on i~ - ■ ** Vas an impromptu notion, and book.

In her native country, we mean. In her adopted country, the laud of hope and promise every ono will be satisfied. The book is a kind of enormous Twelfth Cake, of w hich “in the name of the American people,*’ she makes a present to Mr. Buchanan. Its plum’s arc of. he largest an 1. richest kind; its cbarac. tens ot the finest gingerbread, overlaid with gilt; and tho most glittering master-piece by Gunter never equaled it, for the excessive sweetness and matvelous strength of its ingredients. Mrs. Maury s peculiar opinions (we shall do her most justice by leaving herself to describe them) have enabled her to lay down the lion and the lamb together. She thus contrasts her. j seif with the Hon. Samuel D. Hubbard : “ Heis a Puritan—l am a Puscyitc; he is a frequenter of the meeting house—l worship in cathedrals ; he respects the independent preach er—at home I recognise the hierarchy of the Church of England, (while in America I have fallen in love with the virtues and good works of the Jesuit fathers) ; he is a Whig—l am an i u.tra Democrat; he is a strict protectionist II ain a free trader ; he abhors slavery—l hold it! hut a name :he condemns dancing—l hop about J like a French grandmother; he is quite natural j —I am quite artilicia! ; he despises the pomps ‘ and vanities, while I, alas! am their loving, faithful votary.’ And yet— nothing can surpass her admira tion of Hubbard 1 In like manner Polk and Van Buren, Haywood aud Renton, Calhoun and Clay, Seward and Hannegan, John Quincy Adams and Buchanan, Webster and I timers oil, 1 arc exhibited in her loving and rapturous cm brace. I It is very curious. Mr. Ingersoll charged Mr. \\ ebster sumo few months since with! crimes which, in England, if proved, would! ’ I v, 1 -"~’nrr ir...id* t iriwfe or, disproved, would haw* 1 jWnKS'^ -i-. miner. Hut they manage these things bettor in the Republic. Mr. VV eii ster made a triumphant answer to his accuser, and his accusor was returned at the next elec tiou by a triumphant majority. It was a tribute • to his‘smartness.’ It seems irom Mrs. Mau ry’s account that Mr. Ingorsoll is a wit. ‘ Ami able, sensible, brilliant and witty,’ she tells us, ‘ Ingersoll is charming at slxty-three.’ ‘He is the only witty man that I have conversed with in America.’ He facetiously constituted him self, being Chairman of Foreign Relations, her Guardian. She describes him in his habits and Tastes fastidious to a curious degree, aud quite disgusted and irritated ‘by the. slightest de parture from the moralities and proprieties of educated societies. The charges against poor Mr. Webster, therefore, must clearly have been a mere sally ot wit. • To me he accorded his constant, unreserved , I T .1 _-A and most intimate confidence ; and I declare, and solemnly as I hope for mercy that the breast of lngersoll is guiltless of all wilful malice, and free from ail vindictive passions; but happier would he be had he more cunning to he more discreet. This much I trust lie will permit from me, in all the sincerity of affection and respect. So gentle, so easily affected is he, that I have sometimes invented a pathetic story that I might see my guardian weep ; and on a public occa sion, one of the most interesting of iny iifo, the ! emotion which he sat at iny side displayed, was j among the most touching events of that proud j and happy day.’ The proud and happy day was when the Washington ladies gave Mrs. Manry a dinner. But proud ami happy emotions seem everywhere to wait on lngersoll the polite. Hear the jokes he makes-: ‘ At ajiall, after keeping him at least an hour, during which time nobody asked me to dance, I observed, ‘that for his sake I was sorry that I had had no offers.’ ‘ Madame,’ rejoined h(V‘ I should instantly have repudiated them.-’ It must be remarked that the witty member is the re presentative ol Pennsylvania.’ “ Do tell me,’ said I, ‘ what you think ofsla. very ?” ‘As 1 think of mosquitos, and other visitations of providence,’ said he, ‘the loss said abouttheinthe better; besides, they are always the most intolerable in the hottest places. ‘ I received a letter from Mr. Smith, the At- torney General of the Canadas, dated Montreal, in the middle of January, 145; the snow was then fifteen feet deep at Quebec. ‘lngersoll was present when I received the letter,°and I read it aloud to him, as the most suitable poison to give a reply. “When,’ said Mr. Smith, ‘when arc the Americans coming to take Canada V ‘ When- j ever it’s thavwfl,’ carelessly returned the chair- | man of foreign relations, taking up his bat and j gloves to go away, as if tor the purpose.’ But Mr Punch will grow jealous, and per haps embroil :he countries, if we quote more of these dazzling mots, these • sparkling sallies.’ A portrait of the wit may, on the other hand re store gofcd humor. In his old black shovel In gersoll must be intertable as well as unman ageable : “ lngersoll wears his hair closely cut to his head, as short beforo as it is behind; a most unusual fashion in America; it is of lively AND MB “AS LITTLE ttOVBRKItEST As POSSIBLE ; c Bar.ti sl b...\vn. vi io u t | ( .. ii iit ht;s hr Mt • i'.tt ■’ w■)••(• -Mil .1 i. • seen his hca^j^SsMßMl to >■- : .i, ;t huge ;tir cap <JWi-a%J||| •’ ‘be ei JTy ed In ;t .-tri .v br-.e.ul li.itn giKj c >::l i.tiis .ids,-, o-dttioi! cl^K a o/ s!'i.. 1 ; !e ... like it ‘1 anker staMjfo p atios, it; vai : 1 tTniqfWwt^^ naoagealile, a:uf’ resisted more triumphantly me • dominion of the foreign Petticoat.’ f doubt not that while Ire is reading this history he has one or other of the olletiding articles on his head.” But lei us not forget Mr. Buchanan, who has the honor of the dedication of the’ marvellous book. It seems he looks like an ‘ English nobleman’—not of the present day ;we have nothing of that sort now—but ‘of thirty or forty years ago.’ In the power of seiftsacriticc, however, Buchanan bangs all the nobleman and statesmen that ever lived ; for what do you think this noble minded man did— twice ? “ Cautious and deliberating, thoroughly ‘ ap. preciating the extent of his power, ant! the res ponsibility of his position, this noble minded man twice tendered his resignation when his opin ions conscientiously differed from those of the administration.’ More than that, Buchanan, ‘ to his honor be it spoken,’—but let Mrs. Maury tell: ‘ Religion, to his honor be it spoken, is the I frequent subject of this statesman’s meditation. !In his private cabinet at home,-on the small ta | * n daily use, and within arm’s reach, are | placed two volumes :—tho one Jay’s Devout Exercises, the other the New Testament.’ Amazingly os this is, hardly less surprising is Ex-Governor Seward of New York. It was Lorn him Mis. Maury learned the astounding circumstance that the worst criminal may yet be human, ‘sometimes ‘I regard his perception of the springs of ac tion as intuitive, and have, on more than ontt occasion, listened to his delineation of the , criminal's progressive course in vice, with grati. ued and curious interest; he has sontetirnt/s , shown me tiipt even in the perpetration of lire I most hiijcuus crimes, the piliauler aiav i **’*>c J humaiui. - .. ..

We always went together to the Supreme Court, the Senate, or the House to listen to their speeches, and to cheer them by our presence ; to walk home with them, to sympathize in their and their victories, and to congratulate them when the trial was over. The intercourse between the politicians and statesmen of all parties and the ladies was ot the most agreeable kind, and to the latter it was a source of great instruction and improvement, tor nothing elevates and cor reels the female mind more than the friendship and confidence of distinguished men. On the occasion above alluded to, the party in the gal lery were highly gratiiicd, for Calhoun is pre cious in the sight of all; to me these words of praise were delightful for the sake of both Senators. In the excitement of the moment I threw down my glovo to the speaker ; it fell at his side. The chivalrous Hunuegan instantly picked it up and pressed it to his lips ; looked gratefully up to the gallery, bowed, and placed it in his bosom. The fortunate glove was trails. milted by the next day’s post to the lady of the Senator, then in Indiana. I preserve the less happy fellow to it. When (lie speech was end ed and the Senate adjourned, the ladies went down to the floor. 1 accompanied Mr. liannc gan to shake hands with Calhoun and expres. sed my wish to publish that speech in England. So much for the gallantry of the Senator from Indiana to an English woman.’ \V ho will talk of the rudeness of Western men artei that?

The Judge kneeled reve rently before the altar of the Almighty, for it was the time of prayer ; his eyes were closed, !>ut his fine countenance became impressed j with mental devotion, and when, the prea.cher j j entered upon his eloquent, discourse, for truly i eloquent it was, and described the blessed eti sects of brotherly love, tears flowed down his chocks, and the motion of his lips informed me, thougii his voice was in communion with his Creator. Meed I say with what reverence 1 looked upon him.’ In something of the same ‘ reverence’ of sp!. nt, Mrs. Maury proposes a series of charming laoicaux \ ivants fur i’hanksgivitig Day.
