CHARLESTON SATURDAY MORNING, APRIL 28, 1866. THOMAS CARLYLE. No man living enjoys a more widespread reputation than Thomas Caiilyl?. He is the great teacher in oot-emporary English literature As ho has been before the read ing public for nearly half a century, it is fair to suppose that even he, the great Jupiter Ton ans, mnst soon disappear from this sublunary Olympus, -and take his -place with the gods and horoes in another sphoro. During the last six or seven years wo have had but few of hie utterances, save in his magnum opus, the great Fricdrich, where, under the guise of history, he finde abundant opportunity of delivering himself ol all the swollen mass of splenetic cynicism that had been accumulating during a life time of three soore and ten. Had Cakuyli written nothing but this "History," we should know him protty much as we do now. Noi is this to be wondered at when we oonsidei hie ragged, unpliable mould, that stornlj refused to adapt itself to the oanons of tht sohools, as though he had said: "If you wan1 my criticisms, pamphlets, biographies, hiato ries, eto. .(and I know you do want -them) yon most not confine me to Billy, school-bo^ rules. I am a law to myself. I must tell m*. story my own way. Dictionaries are ver*, well, and Kaimes, Blair and Whate-ly an very retrpeotable people ; but I will none o them. Shams and humbugs ! Away witl them ! *' This course, he struck out in his Sartoi Resartus, and at once electrified the public Here was a bold, independent thinker, ao knowledging allegiance to no authority, ant expressing himself in terse, forcible, bril liant language, in a style peculiarly his owe full of rugged eccentricities, but deemed al the more original for that. The young every where were carried away with it ; those o riper years were reluctant in their endorse rasent of a genius so erratic, so entirely con it o to all the received notions of the o-rthodo didactic. They conceded his originality; bi -"Why ean he not tell ub what he has to sa in English?" We do not mean to insinu?t that Carltle's merit lies in his eoeentrioit of style; though we have not unfrequentl been tempted to the belief that ? great doe of hie manner was effected. This may hav been the caso at first; in his later writings, w feel assured, it had become natural. Hi earliest published writings, we believe, ar a serios of biographies in the Edinburg Encyclopaedia, where the outward peculiar ties just adverted to do not appear. I '^Sartor Resartus,-" and "Hero. Worship,"?i many of his critical essays?in "Burns, '.Cfaiy*? Cromwell," and -"Frenoh Revoli tion,"?they obtrude themselves more an more. When we read the "Latter Da Pamphlets," we began to think that tfa author had run stark mad on the subject < shams; But the History of Friedrich, w are now free to confess, carries off the pain Carlyle became early enamored of Ge man literature, and worshipped at the shriu of Jean Paul Richter and Goethe. Bi while bis admiration for the latter was ui bounded, his natural bent drew him ( Richter, deep, fanciful, brilliant, waywai and lawless. Goethe made it one of tli great studios of his life not to be ecoei trio, but to conform to established rules; t be and do as other mon, only greater an better. But he was too straight-laoed for tt ardont young Scotch student. Carlyle'b "Frederiok Sohiller" is not < this oharaoter ; more "human,'' as he himse would term it ; and we well remember, wh< we read bis "Life of Sterling," how than! ful we folt that the great worshipper heroes, tho universal shamoclast had for oni deigned to lay by his hobbies, and oond soended to write a simple, touohing narr tive, in style and language appropriate to tl theme. It was a tribute of friendship nobl generously rondered; and though in all prob bility not rated very high by tho author hii self, had perhaps done more to onshrino hi in tho hearts and affections of bis readei than those works on which he professedly i poses his famo. We may admire Oarlyj pouring forth the vials of his wrath up< Booiety and governments, sohools and dip] macies; but wo love him when he takes i his scolding boots, sits down, and talks 11 other folks. But we have already spent too much tii talking about the style of the great Sootsma we will now examine some of the leadii characteristics of his mental constitutif Hie matter is no less singular than his me ncr. Here again he is a great ph?nom?ne and may bs said to stand alone. Of ooui we have no referenoe to his numerous itnii tors. He seeks not such sooiety. The gr< loading principle of his writings end tear, ings is his worship of power. At first tl was perhaps nothing more than the ubi; very laudable admiration of strength oharaoter and fixedness of purpose. 1 'Essays'-' and "Hero Worship" aro full of 1 laudations for tho groat and strong men in history. But as ho grew older, and, as it would appear, more soured with the world, ho required something moro stimulating. Blood appeared to be a necessary condimont. Cromwell, Robespierre and Danton offered strong points ; but Friedrich is tho groat idol of his soul?Fritzolatry his religion. A strong man can do no wrong. Let a King but be obstinate, or, to call it by a daintier phrase, be firm, and Mr. Carl y le gives him carte Manche,?he may hang, draw and quarter when, where and whom be likes. Mr. Carlyle hatOB vulgarity, and ruveB 1 at Btnpidity ; and the world is both ?.tupid and vulgar. He abominates hypocrites, and the world is full of cant He cannot stand humbmg, and the earth is full of shams. What wonder ho scolds ! But we have heard bo much about Dryasdust, Smellfungus & Co., that we can hear his tirades now without losing our appetite for dinner. He has played too long and too often on the one string, we are surfeited. A slight change would be desirable. He hates America, and never allows an opportunity to slip without giving us hie boni son. The English, he thinks, are great fools, but the Yankees are greater. Philanthropy (in the Anglo-American sonso of the word) he oalls tho greatest sham of the contury. This ho has reitorated for fifty years. He . has no faith in the ability of average man > kind to govern themselves. Democracy is i the sum of all villany; Constitutional Mon * arohies aro shams and failures. Men do not > know what they want; but ho kindly tells * them : they want a master with a long whip. : Genghis Khan and Frederick are his boau ideals. What he thinks, and always has ' thought, of our late " peculiar institution," it ' wero needless to say, after what has been al ' ready stated. * Wo have not heard Mr. Carly-le'b opinion t of Bismark, but do not doubt that the Prus - sian Minister stands high in the Scotsman'! * estimate. There is Buoh an entire agreement " in their views. But if Bismark would koef f the respect of his old Caledonian friend, he l must lose no time, and forthwith pocket the ) Prussian Constitution, send the Deputie. f about their business, and (if he feels himaol; * strong enough) pull Austria by the noso, ant annex or incorporate all the minor Germai ? States. These are the very lowest terms up '- on which Mr. C. can consent to reoognizo th? - Minister's claims to a plaoe in his pantheon i Mr. Carlyle recently delivered a speed - ou h i s installation as Provost of the Uni vert? ti i; of Edinburgh. It was an hour and a half ii 1 length, but very practical and interesting ant - well received. Fortunately, he had conclude? f not to write a fine speech, so he prepare? >- nothing beforehand, and just gave the stu r dents a fatherly talk in plain English, as lit x tie CarlyleBe as possible ; but still character it ized all through by the unmistakable mark y and peculiarities of his mind. He give o them wholesome advioe ; tells them to b 7 diligent in their studies, avoid cramming, am y obey their teachers; speaks slightingly o ti books, but is most earnest in his injunotion t 0 them to hold their tongues. He speaks s 0 length of the harm fine Bpeeoh has dont 18 Phocion, he says, who did not speak at all e was a great deal nearer hitting the trut! h than Demosthenes. Mr. Chas a great spit i- against Demosthenes. Was it beoause h n was eloquent, or only because he was a Dem n orat ? Ho says : ," ? I do not mean to say vocal education shoul ,. be entirely excluded; but I look to something tha will take hold of the matter much more ciosel* d and not allow it to slip out of our fingers, and r< main worse than it was. For, if a good speakcr > an eloquent soeaker?is not speaking the truth, I le there a more horrid kind of object in creation ?" >f Of course he tells them to keep out of lit? e rature. The boys he addressed might tel i. him he ought not to preach what he is n? r- practicing. He, the greatest tnlkor an io writer of the age, tolls them to hold thei it tongues and keep out of literature, i- The requirements of the age, he says, are *0 "A man with his intellect a clear, plain, gei , metric mirror, brilliantly sensitivo of all objea d and impressions around it, and imagining a 0 things in their correct proportions?not twisted u into convex or concavo, and distorting everythir i- so that he cannot see the truth of the matt? . 0 without ?ndleBS grouping and. manipulation '. healthy, cluar and froo, and seeing all round aboi d him." te But, he admits, " we can never attain thi at all." He closes with a fine invocation i )f the Future, translated from Gobi a? ; ai If "one last word.
