We -hall devote tbi* paper to u consideration of a curtain charotcrialic rcpr< tentative human lieing. Nothing in to sharpen a" Hm> study of one’s kind. One is .tallied, perplexed, outdone, vexed and amused, in the eulhuilaitir proereutlon of sueli atudy. Here is ft luftu, tlie very em bodiment of Unman credulity. Ho Imj lievea everything. You cauuot mention a mailer in the remotest region* of proble matical existence, but lie U ready to adopt it as a principle of bta creed Impossi bilities are nothing to him,and the wildest results of imaginative soarings are com mon trash to him, so familiar U he with them all the time lie anticipates every thing you can conceive of, and writes you down a fool for your ignorance, while you are unfolding before him your choicest and rarest discoveries. He is a type. Without being anything, he is lire best of everything. Without IHjaitlTe knowledge, he yet knows the stun of all. He never reads a book He is disgusted with proper people, and despises bores. He is only a human sponge, n lit tie too soft to retain anything, yet lie absorbs pretty well. He never goes into good society—all shoddy, you know I He sjieud* his Monday's playing poker, or sipping bad whisky, and looking over the files of tlic Police Gazette. To church lie never goe - all humbug, yon know f'an’t tcarli me anything—those sleepy beaded parsons A great nnlSHUce in their broad i loth and ivhlto chokers—can't .tend it, pou my word I con l. And so the donkey brays. He is himself during political campaigns Then hu is a hero, a patriot, a lender. If his country Is saved it must he by him, and whoever refuses to follow him, is a trnitor and de serves hanging. To cast a doubt on ids wisdom is to expose out-sell to utter anni hilation. Our type becomes a blusterer He stamp*, raves, bellows, rallies the elans, wake-: the dend its It worn by th thunder ■ 4 Ins kinsb-r. Hut jieople get used to him. At tlrst ibey listen, then they smile, then nudge ■ms another, then applaud with well con rcnled irony, then shower honors, (as it were) and finally treat him as the King did Hainan, barring the hanging,'which lie is too simple too deserve. He Is heard of no utoro until the next erlals, when like the toad st pond district meeting, he as -umes the post of slippery bonder, and croaks— "Mr. President," and clears Ids throat for tho next—driuk.
