From the Southern Christian Sentinel.
BUPPI.£JIENT TO GRAY’S ELEGY.
BV THK LATB rROFKSSOK KNOWLBS.
Grav'a F.ierv written in a Country Church-Yard, is one of the most exquisite mor
reunite the English language. It has been thought deficient, however, in tins otto
mixnt—lhat it leaves on the mind too deep an unpresawti ofaadnesa, and fives too lit
tle prominence to that immortal hope oil hrietianitv, which sheds a benign radiance
even around the ptceints of the tomb. Tlio following sweet and touching hues were
designed to supply the deficiency alluded to. It is suggested that they should follow
theslaaxa:
“ Far from the wandering crowd," <kc. D.
No airv dreams their simple fancies fired.
No thirst for wealth, nor panting after fame;
But truth divinesublimer hopes inspired.
And urged them onward to a nobler aim. *
From every cottage, with the day arose
The hallowed voice of spirit breathing prayer;
And artless anthems, at its peaceful close,
Like holy incense, cliarined the evening air.
Though they, each tome of human lore unknown,
The brilliant path of science never trod,
That sacred volume claimed their hearts alone,
Which taught the way to glory and to God.
Here they from truth's eternal fountain drew
The pure and gladdening waters day by day;
Learned, since our davs are evil, fleet and few,
To walk in wisdom's bright and peaceful way.
In vender pile, o'er which has sternly passed
The heavy hand of all-destroving time,
Thro' who-’c I o'* mouldering aisles now sighs the blast.
And round whose altars grass ami ivy climb,
They gladly thronged, their grateful hymns to raisa,
Oil as the calm and holy sabbath shone;
The mingled tribute of their prayers and praise
In sweet communion rose before the throne.
Here from those honored lipa, which sacred fire
From Heaven’s high chancery had touched, they hear
Truths which their r.eal inflame, their hopes inspire,
Give wings to faith, aud check affliction's tear! *
When life flowed by, and like an angel, death
Came to release them to the world on high,
Praise trembled still on each expiring breath,
Aud holy triumph beamed from every eye.
Then gentle hands their“dust to dust” consign;
• With quiet tears their simple rites are said ;
And here they sleep, till at the trump divine.
The earth and ocean render up their dead.
NEVER TOO OLDTOLEARN.
Socrates, at tin extreme old age, learned to play on musical instru
ments. This would look ridiculous for some of the rich old inen in
our city, especially if they should take it into their beads to thrum a
guitar under a lady’s window, which Socrates did not do, but only
learned to play upon some instrument of his time—not a guitar—foi
the purpose of resisting the wear and tear of old age.
Cato, at eighty years of age, thought proper to learn the Greek
language. Many of our young men at thirty or forty, have forgotten
even the alphabet of a language, the knowledge of which was neces
sary to enter college and which was made a daily exercise through
college. A fine comment upon their love of letters truly !
Plutarch, when between seventy and eighty,commenced the study
of Latin. Many of our young lawyers, not 30 years of ege, think that
nisi prius, scire facias, &c. are English expressions ; and if you tell
them that a of Latin would make them appear more re
apertable in their profession, they will reply that they arc too old to
think of learning Latin.
Boccacio was thirty-five years of age when he commenced his
studies in polite literature. Yet he became one of the three great
masters of the Tuscan dialect, Dante and Petrarch being the other
two.
There are many among us ten years younger than Boccacio, who
are dying of ennui, and regret that they were not educated to a taste
for literature; but now they are too old.
Sir Henry Spelman neglected the sciences in his youth, but com
menced the study of them when he was between 50 and 60 years of
age. After (his time he became a most learned antiquarian and lawyer.
Our young men begin to think of laying their seniors on the shelf,
when they have reached sixty years of age. How different the pres
ent estimate put upon experience from that which characterized a
certain period of the Grecian republic, when a man was not allowed
to open his mouth in caucuses or political meetings, who was under
forty years of age.
Colbert, the famous French minister, at sixty years of age, returned
to his Latin and law studies.
How many of our college learned men have ever looked into their
■lassies since their graduation?
Dr. Johnson applied himself to the Dutch language a few years be
fore his death. Most of our merchants and lawyers of twenty-five,
thirty, and forty years of age, are obliged to apply to a teacher to
translate a business letter written in the French language, which
might be learned in a tenth part of die time required for the acquisi
tion of the Dutch ; and all because they are too old to learn.
Ludovico Monaldesco, at the great age of one hundred and fifteen,
wrote the memoirs of his own times—a singular exertion, noticed bv
Voltaire, who was himself one of the most remarkable instances of
the progress of the age in new studies.
Ogilby, the translator of Homer and Virgil, was unacquainted with
Latin and Greek till he was p.ist fifty.
Franklin did not fully commence his philosophical pursuitstill he
had reached his fiftieth year. How many among us, of 30,40, and 50,
who read nothing but newspapers, for the want of a taste for natural
philosophy! But they are too old to learn.
Accorso, a great lawyer, being asked why he began the study of
law so late, answered, that indeed he began it late, but he should
therefore master it the sooner. This agrees with our theory, that
healthy old age gives a man the power of accomplishing a difficult
study in much less time than would be necessary to one of half his
years.
Dryden, in his sixty-eighth year, commenced the translation of the
Iliad; and his most pleasing productions were written in his old age.
We could go on and cite thousands of examples of men who com
menced a new study, struck out into an entirely new pursuit either
for livelihood or amusement, at an advanced age. But every one
familiar with the biography of distinguished men will recollect indi
vidual cases enough to convince him that none but the sick and indo
lent will eversay “I am too old to study.”
Washington.—The following beautiful sketch of the character of
Washington, is extracted from an article of the Knickerbocker Mag
azine :
“There was a man among my countrymen who, whenever he ap
peared upon the theatre of human affairs, was always excellently
great. He exhibited anger only in the form of virtuous indignation,
■nd severity only in the cause of truth and virtue. The warrant of
execution passed from his hand bedewed with his tears, and the foe
nian whom he slew, would be found only the enemy of human happi
ness, He laid the foundation of a vast empire •ffi eemen ; lie guided
the reins of government with noble disinterestedness and virtue; he
yielded them gladly to his successor, and with the blessings of mil
lions went into honorable retirement. Whether in emotion, thought,
«r action, who has known one so pure, so great and good? A dis
tinguished British peer said of him, that “he was the only human be
ing for whom he felt an awful reverence.”
Washington was indeed, the highest of the nobility of nature.
“Greatest, noblest, purest of mankind.”
A word of advice to husbands.— Love so that you may be feared;
rule so that you may be honored; be not diffident, lest you teach her
to deceive you ; not 100 suspicious, lest you teach her to abuse you.
If you see a fault, let your love hide it; if she continue in it, let your
wisdom reprove it; reprove her not openly, lest she grow bold ; re
buke her not tauntingly, lest she grow spiteful; proclaim not her
beauty, lest she grow proud; boast not of her wisdom, lest you be
thought foolish; let her not see your imperfections, lest she disdain
you; profane not her ears with loose communications, lest you de
file the sanctity of her modesty. An understanding husband will
make a discreet wife, and her a happy husband.
Economy.—A white haired veteran (Down East, of course,) late
ly went to a dentist’s with the determined purpose of having a few
pegs inserted in his superannuated devourers, but the exhorbitance
of the price made him pause. “Meesteer Deentist,” said he, “1 think
upon the whole, I’ll wait a bit longer, for ’twont be long before I
•ball want a new held, and I’ll have it all done together.”
An Evidence of Smartness.—“ What kind of a fellow is ?”
•aid a chap the other day to Flam.
“Smart—very smart,” said the wag.
“How so? How do you call him smart?”
“Why, he has been living two years, to my knowledge, without
earning the first red cent, and had no capital to commence with. If
that isn’t an evidence of smartness, 1 don’t know what is.”— N. O.
Picayune.
How to Live.—Some live by their wits—some live on their
means, and very queer kind of means they are. Down East they
live all sorts of ways! A traveller in that vicinity asked a boy what
the people thereabout* did for a living? when the lad replied—“ Why,
when strangers come here we skin ’em, and when they don’t come
we skin one another.—[lb.
village dandy to a country girl, “for it resembles the duration of my
fc«e for,yon—it has no end.” “Excuse me, sir,” said she, “I choose
to keep it, for it is likewise emblematical of mine for you—it has no
beginning.”
Sfunk.—“Marrn, mayn’t I go play horse to-day?”
“ No, child, you must stay in the house,”
“Now look here, mam, if you don’t let me, I'll go and catch the
meazlcs—l know a big boy what’s got ’em first rate.”
. The Labi Excuse.—The editor of a Tennessee paper apologi
ses for his lack of editorial by saying that for the last twenty-four
hours he had been breaking down and dancing French fours, Virgin
ia reels and Scotch-jigs ?
An exchange paper gives the proceedings in Congress under the
novel head of “Congressional Sayings and Doings.” This is obvi
ously a misnomer; for although the “Sayings" are plentiful enough,
“Doings” evidently amount to nothing.
