One who knew the Athenian, wall, dwertbrd them aa those who “•pool thehr time In nwHWf e|*e, hut either to tell or to hear aome new thing." I Inman nature la said to be Us* same in all ages, and the description of the Athenians it applicable to the men of the .prerent day. The reading public, In a pre-eminent degren, desire '• tome new thing." Tho elegnnl classics of the Augustan age of Eng land are allowed to remain upon the .helve, of tho library,covered with dust, while almoit every kind of jejune in.ignificance which issue* from thepreia is read, because it is new. Life la too short, and time loo valuable, to allow ui to search a bushel of chaff for a grain of wheau Even the classic novels of Scott, which wore the rage of dm day of their publication, have lost rmich of dieir interest with their novelty; nnd instead of being read by million., are not read by hundreds. The Romans enacted sumptuary law., which regulated rim expense* of tho citizen*. It would be well for tho development of the inind of man if law. could be established di recting tho bonk* to bo rend. Thu Author of tho work, the name of which is plnccd at the beginning of this article, is one of the best writers of tho day. I do not recollect any page of his numerous productions, which n mother would hesitate to place in the hands uf her daughter. In this respect ho differs from Bulwer, whoso power nod imaginative mind facinnto* the reader, and makes him nlmost insensible to the immoralities of some of hi* works. Dirhem does not portray an Alice, brought up in ignorance and isolation, pos sessing every charm of feature and person, yot lost to that sense of tho preset vation of character, which without education, woman is taught by the instincts of her nnture—ho does not tench that woman may Wo are indebted ton commercial hnjie in Charles- «* #« •"t™ and Indent as ^ reaso »o ho virtu- ton f„r the following extract of a leltur received by * M **' H 0 does not describe on Ernett Maltravert, - * with overy nccomplishmont of mind and body—as noble in his character—nnd yet, insinuating himself lulu tho ssnctnnry of woninn’s affections, and, sor- punt-like, robbing Iter of Utnt jewel, without which sho is "poor indeed,"—!thus teaching the monofthe day that they may !>o deemed noble amt accomplish ed, nod worthy of admiration, while they duprjvo fmirnlo youth nnd inoocenco ofthat character,on the possession of which the very foundations of society rus|.

I do out design to comment on the other works of Hox. 1 will not institute a comparison between Oliver Twist and Nicholas Nlckluby. Each is the work of a master *, but I think Nicholas Nieklcby the IhiU. Tho excellences of this work are various.— Tho plot Is good, tho interest of which is not des troyed by tho extravagance which abounds in mnny of its coteinpornries. The author excels in the de scription of tho beauties of nnture. As I do not de sign to review this work, I will only instance n part of one of tho enrly numlmrs—The Three Sis ters of York. This is a tale of deep pathos and ex ceeding bounty-—u tale in which nature is clothed ih her loveliest charms, and woman pencilled with n Inanity which mokes her surpass the liliy of the vnllcy ; and tho social and domestic affections por trayed iu a manner that disposes us almnsito be lieve t lint Heaven may he found on earth: but which clo.es with tho stern realities that belong to tho lot of man. Dickons is n follower of the great master of hu man chnmctor—tho hidden vprings of human ac tion. Ido not any lin oqiiols, or oven npproacho. Shaktpcntt. Perhaps the great dramatist of Eng land will not hnvo an equal in all coming time. But thu author of Nicholas Nieklcby draws most admir able portraits | and his characters, under all circum stances, act tliolr proper part. Squeer* is a mean und cruel jiudagogon—ami of necessity a coward, tho cuuso cruel and mean. Smiko is an admirable example of helplessness, .offering under oppression —manifesting under all Ills lowliness, traits of char acter, which, if properly developed, ounlt human unturo. Lord Frederick and Sir Mulberry uniform ly uet as iftlio world nnd nil tiling, in it, were made lor their sixicial gratification. Their entire charac ter i* continued in the lino of Huruco, " nati con.u- mere frugo. tome." Ralph Nieklcby is always a most consummate villain, willing to saerifico his lorely niece to titled profligacy, in order to gratify that most debasing of nil nujsioii., tho love of money for its own sake, and not fertile comforts it enable, us to enjoy, or tho good itonnhlos u. to offcct In connection with his character we may well exclaim that «-~»our*cd |nv« of g Id. f-r whose sake " The miser In sen interest in both worlds 1 " First starved in tills, then,damn'd in that to come t" Nicholas and Kate are almost (Kirfoct characters: not drawn from fancy, but from observation of life.

Not a Jewess was to bo seen among tho crowd of the priests and die rubble who insulted the son of man; scourged him t6 ignominy ■jUid the cross. Tho women of Judea believed, in •ho saviour—they loved, lliey followed him, and thay soothod him under afflictions. A women of Bethany poured on hit.head the precious ointment which she kept in a vtso of Alabaster; tho sinner anointed his feet with a perfumed oil, and wiped them with h*r hair. Christ, on hi# part, extended hit grtce nnd mercy to the Jeweites; be raised from the dead the ton ofthe widow of Nain, and Mal tha’s brothei, Lazarus; he cured Simon'* mother-in- law, end tho woman who touched the Item of his garment.

These signs are of such site a* to extdhd usually from side to side uf die building on which they nro placed, nnd ifa house presents too ends, or even three to public view, the massive letters adorn them ull.

A pro fessional letter from Court street announced to him tho existence of a claim against him for damages. Inquiry connected the claim with tho above facts, and informed Capt.

Captain H. who, by tho way, seemed to bo a kindly and gentlemanly Now Englander, felt deeply hurt and grieved in his mind, and ex pressed the regret ho then felt, and ever must foel, that ho bad caused the poor sailor so severe a loss, nnd finally compromised the matter by a remunera tion of $200, paid to Jack’s counsel. Ho then re turned to his vessel, and, impressed with asense of pain at the remembrance ofiho injury, and of plea sure and ease at the thought of having in a measure repaired Bra loss, and secured himself from farther molestation on account of it,, related to his mates and men tho whole affair, and when he called to thoir miodi the time, occasion, and the perton, the mon informed him that Jack was blind In one eye when he shipped—the tame identical eyo for the loss of which bo had just recovered |2001 Jack, however, was gono^on a spree, and none of the money could be recovered.

Mr. Morris Bollock, the enteiprizing Tlirowstcr ofGUtgow, has arrived in the Great Western, and has prureedrd to I’itisylvania county, in this Suite, where he proposes to establish a large Mulhciry plantation, a Cocoonery, and a Filatu e for reeling the silk. He has availed himself of the Act of As sembly of 1833, ami has already become a quhti citizen of (lie Suite, for the purposeof holding lands. We had the pleasure of witnessing an inieruiing interview on Friday evening between Mr. Pollock and Mr. D’Humergue. They agree in their views of the best murmur of conducting the silk business in the United Slati-s. They think that Virginia is calculated to Iro it great silk State; but that -he ought tu^nnfine herseliat present to tbe raising of the Mulberry nnd lira worm, and of reeiingthe silk from the Cocoons—and thut it )# probably best to estuhlish largo Filatures, which uillfurni-h amai- kol fur the Uncuons, and supersede tho necessity nf each silkcultnrist having a reel of hit own—and that it is holler I'm us to export thoraw tilk, M l:e mnriufnciUied in Euru|ie. Mr. Pollock seem* 10 imssuss great knowludge. of his subject; and to show the most liberal ilispusitiun to communicate it to other*, and to encuunigu the enterprise* in lh>* Slate.- He was much surprise ! by the ncrounts that were given him of tho active and prolific quali ties ofthe Munis Multii-ouii*.

Mr. D'Homcrguo kasalso great ex- perienro in tho business. Hu is a decided enthu- sinsi; hut at the same time prudent and considerate. From the elortlent* ofc ilouiatiun, with which he furnished us ox Frida , it appears that, barring all accidents, nnd with cocooneries economically built and properly conducted, each acre of ground w ill produce a not profit of at leait $200.
