THE GAITER BOOT
O, dainty foot!

To piety you’re shocking;
We only know

And that's a snow-white stocking.
So neat and clean

Even stoics must agree,
To you to vote.

A handsome L-E-G.
The lasting theme
Os midnight dream—
The very soul of song;
Man wants you little
Here below,
And never wants yon long.
By Blate ne'er
Sent tripping here;
By Pluto rather given.
To lead poor man
(An easy plan)
To any place but Heaven.
Yet still we vow
There's magic now
About a woman's foot;
And cunning was
The wizard hand
That made a gaiter boot.
Bor while the knave
The gaiters gave,
* To mortals to ensnare them.
Mankind lie hoaxed,
And even eotixed
The angels down to wear them,
LOT AND TIMES OF AARON BURR.
The name of Aaron Burr has recently been
brought before the public in the history of him
written by Jas. Parton, the husband of Fanny
Fern. The work takes an opposite view of
the subject from previous biographies. and at
tempts to exalt Burr as a patriotic and honest
man, with but few blemishes in his character.
In fact, Mr. Parton’s history describes all of
Burr's goo<i fruits and none of his bad ones.
Bev. Mr. Millburn, the well-known lecturer,
has delivered a lecture upon Aaron Burr, in
which he disagree* entirely with Mr. Parton in
his estimation of Burr’s character. As the
life of that singular man is a subject of general
interest, we make the following extract from
the lecture:
The lecturer commenced by giving a brief
sketch of the life of Burr, and spoke of his
death, which occurred obscure, unhappy, un
honored and unknown.
Bnrr was born at Newark. N. J., Feb. (I.
1756, and was the son of Rev. Aaron Burr.
Both his parents died before young Burr at
tained the age of three years. His peculiar
habits developed themselves early, tor :it four
years of age he had a quarrel with his teacher,
and instead of biting and kicking, as others of
the same age would do, he lietook himself to
the woods, and remained there for several
•lays until removed by force. At the age of
ten, he hired as cabin boy on board a ship, and
when his uncle came for him he ran up to the
maintop, and refused to descend till his-gnardian
came to his own terms. When thirteen, he
was a candidate for the Junior Class in Prince
ton College, hut as those who hud the busi
ness in charge thought such a candidate unac
ceptable, he was put into the Sophomore class,
which lie regarded asatn insult; yet he studied
tor about twelve or thirteen hours per day,
and prescribed for himself a regimen, giving
himself the smallest possible quantity of ani
mal final, to which he rigidly adhered for ma
ny years. Once he gambled, and won all from
his ofqionents, but so meanly did he think of
himself that he never touched a card again.—
He then lived near the College for some time
and amused himself by writing letters to friends,
until a revival of religion took place in the
Collage, and young Burr was called upon for
his opinion. At length an old triend of his fa
ther invited him to study divinity with him.
when lie went in 1773. and ended his theologi
cal study in the following spring. He next
commenced the study of law and history, un
der Aaron Reeve, and read all the discussions
of constitutional law and colonial right set
forth by the writers of the times, and his whole
energies were put forth in behalf of the strug
gling colonists.
He next offered himself to Washington as a
recruit, and during this period he caught a fever,
but one night when convalescent, he heard his
comrades talk of Arnold's expedition to Que- .
bee, and enfeebled as he was, instantly volun
teered to go. and went the whole way on foot.
A messenger arrived from Ins uncle, stating
that he must go home. “How will you take
me I” said he. “ I won't go and if you attempt
force I will have you bung in ten minutes.”—
The iuex-«nger had a double set of instructions,
and gave him a most affectionate letter and a
rvlean of gold, which he pocketed—but he ,
would not return, and during the whole cam
paign he was found in the van. and curried the
corpse of his commander (Gen. Montgomery)
nff the field of battle. Not liking the com
mand of Arnold. lie left the army, ill spite of
his threats, and joined Washington in New
York, in May, 177(1, being then a Major. Af
ter a while Burr got into the family of Israel
Putnam, and there he indulged in his lite long
propensity in causing the ruin of the daughter
of aii officer; she afterwards lived a miserable !
lite under the mime of Mrs. Collum, and wrote !
a pamphlet before her death, tracing her ruin
to Major Burr. Some years after, as a great
disciplinarian, lie was placed in command of a
detachment by Wayne, and his tyrannical dis- ,
position caused a conspiracy to be formed
against bis life, which he stntu discovered—and
one moonlight niglit he stantnoned the conspi-
put having first hud the cartridges drawn
from their muskets; as he went down the .
Um, um sprang forward and presented a urns-
! ket at him, saying. “Now is our time, l>oys!”
but Burr struck him down with his sword, and
’ the mutiny was quelled. At the battle of
Monmouth he bore liimself bravely, and suf
fered froai a sun-stroke, which caused him to
leave ihMu-my and study law. The other law
yers were all against him, but be passed a trium
phal examination, and having married a beau
tiful woman, named Theodosia Provost—the
widow of a British officer—he commenced
the practice of his nrofcaidon. “ Ijiw,” be
, said, “ is whatsoever is plainly stated and skil
lfully made good”—an assertion which was as
, unjust to the profession as was characteristic
■ to the man.
Millburn then passed to the political career
. of Burr, and stated that doubtless bis antipathy
I to Washington and Hamilton caused him to
Join the opposing party. In 1701, lie was
elected Senator in Pennsylvania, and in 1791
his wife died, which was a marked event in
his lite. In tliat same year, Washington thrice
refused to nominate Burras Minister to France.
The Republicans hail refused to confirm the
nomination of another by Washington, where
upon that distinguished statesman said he
would nominate any one they would name in
whom confidence could be jilaced. They thrice
named Burr; but Washington as often refused,
saying he made it a rule never to nominate a
I man in whom he had no confidence, and he had
none in Aaron Burr. The lecturer next al
; laded to the time when Jefferson became Presi
' dent, and Burr Vice President, before which
time a party of young men were organized un
der Jefferson; true, Washington kept them
, down, but as soon as he retired, and Adams
became President, the chorus from this new
party was heard with fearful din. The exal
tation of such a man as Matthew Lyon, an ob
scure and unintelligent foreigner, for Ins speech
■mule in the Senate, by punishing him with
i fine and imprisonment, caused the chorus to
swell louder, and elevated Lyon to the rank
of a martyr. In 1709. Burr betook himself to
’ the management of this affair, and succeeded
’ in carrying an election for Vice President, the
duties of which office he discharged with great
propriety mid correctness. And now came the
famous duel, which, without dishonor to the
dead, the lecturer considered to be the murder
of Alexander Hamilton. Burr had been nom
inated for the Governorship of New York, when
a letter was written by Cooper, in which it
was stated that Burr had been spoken of by
Hamilton as a man ot no probity or honor.
Lewis, tlieop]«invnt of Bnrr. was elected, and
Burr's hopes of rising Io any further dignity
being gone, he wrote mi arrogant letter to
Hamilton, in June, demanding him to state if
he had said anything against Co). B.’s honor.
Hamilton answered, politely declining to do
so. mid the unfortunate duel was fought on flic
7th of July. Hamilton did not want to fight,
ami the evening before, wrote a pajier saying
l lie would probably throw away his first, sec
i ond, and even his third fire ; but at the first
tire, the practiced hand nnd eye of Burr sent
the bullet through Hamilton, which grazed his
. spine. Without saying a word. Burr left the
ground, ami went to his residence on Rich
inond Hill, going on there with his avocations
in quietness. Or. Unstick, who attended on
■ Hamilton, came to Burr's place, saw him re
freshing himself in a bath, and reading the
i look ••Emile:'’ lie told him Gen. Hamilton
was dying, and asked if he would not enquire
concerning him ; lie did write a cold note of
enquiry, actually dictated by llosack. Ilmn
' iltoit died next day. and his death threw the
! whole country in gloom. Finding then that a
I verdict of wilful murder was found by the
coroner's jury, he lied, mid went about until
lie again assumed his high office in Washing
ton, and as President of the Senate at quit
ted himself ably. Bnrr stepped down from his
high position, and went on, step by step, until
he filled a dishonored grave.
The Mississippi scheme was then briefly
twitched on, and Burr's flight in 1808, when
i on bail, after learning that lie was betrayed by
Wilkinson. A very interesting incident of
: Burr's flight, was his detection by Perkins,
while most completely disguised, anil in the
comp.iny of another horseman, by his sharp
black eye. and his peculiar foot. Burr mid his
j eotiqiutiion had awakened the hostess of a par
ticular house from her sleep, mid she. Iwing
shrewish, was in no good humor, until Burr,
by his pow er of sjieech, completely fascinated
her. The Sheriff brought by Perkins was also
fascinated, and Perkins, who was waiting in
the cold, suspecting the state of affairs, w ent
for the military, who met the Sheriff, and in
stead ot trying to earn halt the reward for tak
ing Burr, were actually Won over to escort
him to Pensacola. The Sheriff having then
got a most cross-grained guard to go with Per
kins as escort to Burr, mid swore them on the
Bible not to speak to Burr on the road, nor let
him speak to them. While on the road to
Fredericksburg, Burr suddenly jumped from
his horse mid called on the citizens to aid him;
whereupon Perkins jumped off and ordered
him to remount, which he refused, although ■
two pistols were placed nt his breast, until I
Perkins tiling him on his horse, mounted his
own. mid galloped into the woods. Then, for
the second time ill bis life. Burr shed tears. He
was tied and moved away in a box.
The Lecturer then described the wanderings
of Burr through Europe, and his unhotlored
return to New York. He died on the 14th of
September, 1836, nt Staten Island. A in'misf
ter attended him ill death, and the last net o
his life was to point the finger and curl the lip
I of mockery and derision at the faithful mid
earnest efforts of the good man to turn his
heart to God. lie was buried without stone
or monument to mark the spot, until lately, in I
the silence of the night, a memorial was placed
over him containing his name, age, and date
of his death. He was munificent to many nsk
ers, generous to many seekers, taught his
slaves to read and write; but his generosity
and kindness were impulsive, and therefore
not to be thought much of, but bis passions
seemed to lie the chief end of his life.
IXFI.I EXfK OF THE S.MII.E IX GIVIXO Bf.AI -
tv of Exi’iiEssiox.—A Iwitutiful smile is to
the female countenance what the sun beam is
to a landscape. It embellishes an inferior face
and redeems an ugly one. A smile, however, 1
should not become habitual ; insipidity is the
result; nor should the mouth break into a
smile on one side, the other remaining passive .
and unmoved, for this imparts un air of deceit i
and grotesqueness io the face. A disagreeable
smile distorts the line of beauty, and is more
repulsive than a frown. There are many kinds
of smiles, each having a distinctive character—
some announce goodness and sweetness—oth
ers betray sarcasm. bitterness and pride—some ‘
soften the countenance 1»y their languishing
tenderness—others brighten it by their bril- 1
liant and spiritual vivacity. Gazing and
miring before a mirror cannot aid in acquiring
beautiful smiles half so well as to turn the
gaze inward, to watch that the heart keeps
unsullied from the reflection of evil, and Illu
minated and beautified by sweet thoughts.
“There are Five of Us.”—A friend of ours,
once holding a distinguished official position
in the State Government of Michigan, and who
long since, “went up higher,” called onr at
tention, one day, to a flowering shrub that sat '
enjoying the light of a bright May morning, in ,
an eastern w indow of his lieantiful home.
• That.'' said S. “is one of our household.—
We have two children and the flower—so
there are five of us.”
There was no lightness in the tone, but a
depth of feeling rather, tor which we could
not account. Noticing the look of inquiry, he '
continued : “Several years ago, one autumn
day, we procured that shrub, clicrished it du- I
ring the winter by the fireside, ami in the ■
spring it rewarded us w ith foliage and a bud.
Then, too, ‘a child was byrn,’ and the babe j
and the bud blossomed into lieauty together.—
Daily, each unfolded something new to admire j
and to love. Fall came again, and the child
and the plant withered away. The ram of 1
heaven did not revive the one ; the rain of the j
heart could not restore the other: this, we laid !
in the ground; that, died down to the earth ;
in the v&se. And yet w e charished the little
area where it slept: yet we watered and carts!
1 for it. Spring came but the flower did not'
hear its call, and the dead was with us still.
"But in midsiumnet, the empty cradle had
a new tenant, and for a while the vase was
neglected. One day, however, it was remem
bered. and you cannot jmlgc of the mingled joy,
wonder and fear with which we saw that the
shrub had again parted the earth, and put
forth a glossy leaf. Child and flower thrived
together, and you know that the one was
watched with all the solicitude with which we
regarded the other. Blossoms once more
’ adorned it, and it never withered again. The
‘ voice ofthe child to which it is bound by such
mysterious sympathy you can hear in the gar
den ami the fragrance of the flower is perfu
ming the air..”
We could well understand ‘’the count” of
his love when he said, ‘That is one of our
household. We have two children and the
flower, and so there are five of us!”
A Scotch Millionaire.—The will of the
late Mr. Morrison, some time M. I’, for the
Iverness Burghs, has just been administered to
in Doctor's-conmions ; it is among the longest
upon record. Upon its production were en
gaged conveyancers and barristers of eminence,
and during its progress to completion the tes
tator evinced much anxiety. The estate ex
ceeding £4,000,000 is, in such cases, sworn to
as of upper value. Basildon Park cost £126,-
i 000 ; the furniture there alone has lieen val
■ ued at £90.000. This mansion is to be the
residence of his widow, with an annuity of
£IO,OOO a year. The estate ol Basildon is left
to hi« son Charles, ns well as the Islay estate
in Scotland, which latter cost £462,000, and
' from its extent and easiness may be termed a
principality, the owner being there styled a
; laird. This is let to numerous tenants. Mr.
Charles is also beqneatfied a round sum of
£1,000,000 under the will. Mr. Morrison was
possesscsl of Fonthil! abbey, Hove Park, Sus
sex ; a town residence in upper Harley street;
, shares amounting to £BO.OOO in the Victoria
docks, and vast acquisitions in America.—,
