represent to themselves everything that goes on distinetly, keenly and emphatically. The reminiscences, for example, of a man like Scott, were far more rich and historically sig- nificant, and doubtless also far more numerous; and those of a man like Wordsworth had a deeper spirit of social specula- tion in them. rities of the volume before us have also discerned in Rogers's ancedotes a vein of ill-vature and detraction which they think characteristic—a habit of recol- lecting precisely those unpleasant things about eminent men which one would rather not hear; as iv Fox's posthumous character of Burke. We do not think, however, that there is more of this quality in Rogers's reminiscences than is almost. iaevitable in the gossip of a man who is neither aa

enthusiast nor a humourist. All second-rate gossip runs to scandal. As regards the kind of fixed doctrine or belief produced | in Rogers's mind by his ninety-three years of experience of | public men and iacidents, it is difficult to come to any con- clusion from the style of his reminiscences. One belief he must have pretty well made bis own before he had done with the world—a belief expressed once for all long ago, but which | every one has to acquire for himself, and which ts vot usually acquired until one has long fought against it: +‘ The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is | done is that which shall be done; and there is no new thing) under the suv.” If any man iu our time might be supposed to have thoroughly made up bis life to this belief, it was old Rogers at the end of his life. How, as he looked back on the long vista of his own past existence, so full of facts and surprises, of junctures recurring, of movements begun and | concluded, of reverses and traverses, of calms and convulsions, of wrecked schemes and exploded enthusiasms, he must have swiled at the zeal of younger men blazing up into moral con- flugration if but the pope’s cat mewed when they had not expected it, and seeing “ a crisis” in every thereat of war, and every change of ministry! What can 1848 have been to hiw, or the Hungarian Luosurrection, or Louis Napoleon’s | coup d'etat, or the fall of the Aberdeen Cabinet, or the fall of Sebastopol? * My dear boys,’ he must have said to many a man of forty upon whom these things were producing an effect, ‘ wait till you come to my time of life, and you will be a little cooler in your notions.’ And yet, with all this, Rogers must haye been aware that things in the gross had gone through a regular process of change in his time; and that though, in a general sense, and as measured by a larger oycle, the thing that had been was the thing that still was, and the thing that was done was the thing that would be done, and there was no new thing under the sun, yet, in a more specific and narrow sense, there were mavy new things under the suv which that luminary had not looked down upon when he was first acquainted with it, and not a little vice versa. Through all that roaring sequence of Wilkesite, and Napoleonic wars, and Castlereagh administrations, and a hundred other mountains of fact and talk, each filling the firmament in its.day from the solid floor of the earth upwards, there had been.a small constant stream of social change or progress, quietly flowing underneath, and distilled drop by drop out of these very vaporous overhanging masses. Dying at the age of ninety-three, he had not left the world, and certainly he had not left Great Britain, precisely as he found it. Customs had changed, institutions had changed, ways of public action had changed. As a boy he could recollect seeing the head of a rebel, a black shapeless luwp stuck on a pole at | Temple-Bar ; be could recollect also, with many younger men, the weekly carts conveying criminals, at the rate of fiom ten to twenty every week in London alone, to the place of public execution; but ere he died aij that was altered, and he could hear,.on the occasion of every rare execution, philanthropy holding public meetings to denounce even that as brutality

was ulso remarked that, had he turned up sooner, being the Heir Apparent to the throne, our Government might have made something of him. ‘These papers found their way to the capital, and, it is known, created a good deal of excite- ment among those in power there. And there ean be little question that this foul deed was concocted there; but, from what is now known of the present King, we may be sure he has been in utter ignorance of any such murderous intention.

Deatu or Anorien Ixpran Herr Arrarent.—The heir- apparent to the throne of Shahjchanabad, the Prince Mirza Mahomed Fattch-ool-Moolk, was attacked by cholera on the Oth July, rapidly sunk under it, and died. Tne royal phy- sicians were in attendance, but their skill availed not. The deceased Prince was forty years of age. On the 19th July the union jack was hoisted half-mast at the Fort Flagstaff, Madras, announcing the death, at four o’clock the same morning, of her Highness the Nawab Begum Saled Om Nissa. She was the grandmother of the late Nawab, the widow of Uzzen Ood Dowla. She died at the ripe age of seventy- nine years. Her funeral was solemnized with unusual pomp, although in opposition to her expressed wish, and not at the cost of her estate. It was a spontaneous tribute paid to her memory by thousands to whom her munificence had endeared her.

RUSSIA.

Coronation oF THE Emprnor or Russta—Soremn Entry or THE Emrrror nto Moscow.—The morning of the day fixed upon for the solemn eutry of the Emperor into Moscow (the 29th ult.) was ushered in by Jouring clouds and rain, About mid-day, however, the sun broke through, and the afternoon was bright. A salvo of nine guns from a battery posted opposite the Tchoudow Convent, followed by a peal of bells from the Cathedral of the Assumption, gave the signal to all the bells of Moscow to begin jangling. At 3} p. m. the Imperial procession left the Petrovsky Palace. First came a ‘* Maltre de Police,” with twelve mounted gensd’armes to clear the way. The Emperor was preceded by his body guard in their magnificent uniforms, squadrons of Cossacks of the Black Sea and of the regiment of Guards, the represen- tatives of the haute noblesse on horseback, all in uniform, the representatives of the Asiatic populations which acknowledge the sovereignty of Russia, with valets, lacqueys and runvers of the court. After this mixture of European and Oriental costumes came Masters of ceremonies and others with their badges of office. After this train, in which European and Oriental finery were strangely mingled, came Alexander Nicolaievitch, on horseback, attended by the Minister of his Household, the Minister of War, and his aides-de-camp. The Princes of the blood followed, all on horseback. A long train of splendid carriages came next in order, containing the Empress, the Empress Mother, the Grand Duchesses, and the Princess of Oldenburg, followed by their ladies of honour. Squadrons of Cuirassiers closed the procession. At 4 p.m. precisely, a salvo of 71 guns announced that the Emperor was entering his ancient capital. The Military Governor-Gene- ral of Moscow received his Majesty at the entrance of the vity, at the head of his employes. The magistrates and the burghers received his Majesty at the entrance of the quarter called Zemlenoi. The marshal and the nobility of the Go- vernment of Moscow received him at the entrance of the |

To save the country from further misfortunes, they were willing to forget personal causes of complaint, and even to recognize him as their chief.

He has irretrievably alienated the Progresistas ; by persisting in the law of disamortization he secures the enmity of the clergy and the Court; while the Moderadoes, whose policy he has adopted, disclaim him as their chief.” 1t cannot be expected that the man who has already be- trayed so great a want of judgment, will long be able to maintain himself in the position to which he has attained by such unscrupulous means. Even now it is rumoured that his full is plotted by the very Court whose temporary pur- he has served, and upon whose favour—that favour which he sacrificed his honour to win—he can no longer count.

THE WOLF AT BAY.

Tur Islander of the 26th ult. contains a couple of editorials, which are characterised by Maclean’s usual regard to truth and decency of language. The article with reference to the libels on the character of Mr. John Williams, which appeared some time since in the Montreal Gazette, is worthy of passing notice at our hands on one or two grounds. Because Mr. Wil- liams very properly availed himself of the presence here of « member of the Canadian Bar, to request him to obtain from the publishers in Montreal the name of the author of the cow- ardly and false assertions against his character, and because

‘suit—exposed the unblushing, but till then unknown, slan- derer, by giving the name of Duncan Maciean, we are gravely informed that this conduct on the part of Mr. Williams is another attempt to muzzle the Press! The other attempt, we presume, was Maclean’s action against ourselves. Not content with having belied his betters in the Canadian paper, he te- produces the wretched filth in the Islander, with an impudent threat that the Lieutenant Governor ‘‘ must take the conse- quences” if Mr. Williams dare to appeal to s jury of bis country for the disgraceful attack made upon his character by this convicted libeller, who is not ashamed to earn his dirty bread, by employing his venal pen and prostituted talents in the service of John Ings and his party — that John Ings whose unmanly conduct was the cause of his prosecution, and that party which ranked among its members the present Judges, who, at the time, being respectively Attorney and Solicitor General, prosecuted him to conviction, and of whom he said that they were “robbers and would be murderers if they dared,” or language to that effect! We shall not outrage propriety, nor shock the feelings of the respectable portion of the community, by repeating the gross language of the article under consideration, but will inform our readers, that, among

The por- tion of the Imperial cortege which preceded their Majesties kept on their way round the cathedral, and such as had the entree entered it by the north gate. The officers of the Court completed the circle of the building, and stationed themselves in front of the south gate, to await the coming out of their Majesties. The Holy Synod and the function- aries of the cathedral met their Majesties at the parvis, and preceded them into the chureh chanting the second canticle for Palm-week. After kissing the images and relics, their Majesties proceeded to the cathedrals of the Archangel Michael and the Annunciation, in both of which the ceremony of kissing the images and relics was gone through. In the cathedral of St. Michael they also prostrated themselves before the tombs of his Majesty’s ancestors. On quitting the cathedrals their Majesties, accompanied by the court, walked to the Palace of the Kremlin.

And this change in one department of our social procedure was but a type representing a whole circle of accompanying changes—al! forming part of a social evolu- tion, the end of which bad not yet been reached. Rogers, too, in looking back upon this process of change, could have the satisfaction, such as it was, of having belonged to the party who had, during its successive stages, sympathized with it rather than opposed it. Born a Whig and a Dissenter, with boyish recollections of Dr. Price as an honoured guest at his father’s house at Newington, and with recollections of the time when his own ambition was to be a Unitariaa reacher, he had all his life held the tenets of modern higgism. He knew Horne Tooke, became intimate with Fox and the Holland House set, contributed one article to the Ediniurgh, and to his Jatest years acknowledged the blue and yellow as his political colours. But he was never an ardent politician—never so ardent a Whig as Jeffrey, or

quite as far as he wished it; and if be had formalized his final belief in politica] matters, it would probably have been in some such general maxim as we once heard uttered by a man who had acted a conspicuous part in the Reform Bill move- ment, but over whose views there had since come a shade of the usual conservatism of advanced age: ‘ After as much experienee in politics,” he said, “and as active a career on the side of change as any man in my time, the maxim that [ would hand over to younger men as ewbodying my belief, is, that it is a terrible thing to give power into the hands of poverty and ignorance.” Not that he bad ceased to desire political equaligation, or to believe that the world was tending to it, but that this maxim expressed bis idea of the quickest rate at which, if possible, the eablo of equalization should be permitted to go off the Parliameutary capstan. Probably diogers would have agreed with him. (To be continued.) ————

This worthy lays great stress on the fact that the Tory Assembly of 1854 declared’ Mr. Williams to be unfit to hold any office under the Government, but prudently omits the sig- nificant fact that the people, their masters, at the very first opportunity, most emphatically declared the Tories themselves ‘unfit to hold any office under the Government,” and gave practical effect to their opinion by turning them out, and that Duncan Maclean himself, only a few years previously, was, by reason of his treachery, apostacy and falsehood, declared un- worthy to represent the intelligent people of the First District of Queen’s County.

The affected candor which Maclean would wish people to believe induced him to request his Canadian friends to give up his name, will impose on no one who knows the man, and will recollect the habits of the animal we have named at the head of this article. The similarity of disposition and habite be- tween a wolf and Maclean is so singular, that we wil] give our readers a few points of resemblance. A wolf and Duncan Mac- lean are gaunt, rayenous and ungainly animals. A wolf and Duncan Maclean make their attacks in a sneaking, cowardly manner, and under cover. The character and value of their victims is no bar to their abominable propensiti¢s ; and, cow- ardly as they are, when detected in their vile proceedings, if they cannot escape, they will turn upon their pursuers, with @ violence engendered by despair. This last trait is beautifully exhibited in Maclean’s reckless repetition of his lies, when concealment was no longer possible. His conduct in this re- spect has not, however, the merit of originality, for it is no unusual thing to see convicted mendacity take refuge in brazen effrontery.

The other article on the subject of the remission of the fine on Mr. Williams, is too contemptible for notice.
