Battle Picture. Among Macaulay's "Laya of Ancient Borne," m the poem of tho "Battle of Lake Regillus," fought between the Unmans and Latines, occurs the following graphic pic? ture. The lines ring like blows of truest steel: "Now on each side the leaders Gave signals for the charge, And on each side the footmen Strode on with lance and starge; And on each side the horsemen Struck their spurs deep in tbe gore; And, front to front, "the armies Met with a mighty roar. And under that great battle The earth with blood was red; And like the P/mtine fog at morn, The dust huug overhead; And louder still and louder Rose from the darkened field, The braying of the war horns, The clang of sword and shield; Tho rush or squadrons sweeping Like whirlwinds o'er the plain, The shouting of the slayers, The screeching of the* slain." The Richmond Dispatch has heard that Mr. Charles Dickens is about to take another look at this country, and thus welcomes him; It was about twenty-five years ago, we think, when Mr. Dickens first did our country the honor of a visit. He dropped in upon us in a neighborly way, and was received with immense hospitality. At that time, though a young man, he was in the meridian of his fame, and his popularity, in the United States as in England, was unbounded. We greeted him with a perfect furore of enthusiasm. There were some people who thought we rather over-did the matter. They said we went down upon all fom*s, as it were, before this promising worship of the British lion. But the truth is, there never was a more genuine out? burst of good feeling than that which the great mass of our people displayed towards Dickens. Some flunkyism there was, as there always will be, but the most of us loved Boz like a brother. We iden? tified tho man wi di his works, and his works had always been true to humanity, We were his debtors for a vast amount of fun, and, what was better, he had taught us to sym ?athize with the poor and suffering, [e had never degraded his pen by servility to rank and power. His hero.es and heroines had been always of the common mould, and when a nobleman figured in his productions it was not much to his advantage. Such a genius and such a nature as shone ia his pages touched an elec? tric cord in the soul of this repub? lican country. We welcomed him with both hands and our whole heart. His first speech at a Boston festival rather opened our eyes. It was evi? dent in that speech that, while we fancied him hugely, he did not much fancy us. That makes a great differ^ ?Uce in matters of friendship and love. ?H-pte'ihu^ sentiments; to live long, must ? be somewhat r?eipAoc**n. fernaps we did not deserve a return of our con? fiding affections, but the fault that Dickens found with us in his first speech, and a great many other speeches, need not haye ruade our charmer so cold ; and the making it the constant burthen of his song was not calculated to raise him in our esteem. One great sin, which it appeared he had come across the water to reform, was the neglect to protect, by a copy? right law, the property uf British itur thors in their productions. No one gan dispute the justice of such a law, Mn4 it ought to have been enacted long ago. but we had not expected to be lectured on our short-coming at that time, in that way, and by that man, It gave a kind of mercenary aspect to our gay cavalier that chilled the ardor of our young affections and dispelled the halo of romance that had encircled our hero's brow, But the festivities to Dickens went on all thc same, and his progress through the (country was a perfect ovation. At last, having speut two months in traveling through sixteen States of the American Union, Mr. Charles Dickens returned to Europe and wTote a book. We expend jt would be a candid, just and somewhat friendly estimate of our national cha? racter and habits. We did not look for anything very philosophical or profound, but had the right to antici? pate a brillijoik and good-Jfiimored portraiture^^^pierican life. There w ( iT?S om e^yj re du: tc d we should Ji-jflPrTwas 1 .elie ved tl cit. it' satirized at all, it would be in such artistic style that we shoidd enjoy tmr own dissection, But we were : . *o be grievously disappointed. The book overflowed with gall and venom. There was scarcely :i drop of the milk of human kindneag in it. It out Trolloped Trollope, and in downright misrepresentation and abuse threw Hall and Maryatt into the shade. As a specimen of wit and humor, it was beneath contempt. He came back at us in the same style in ! 'Mar? tin Chuzzlewit," Instead of a Da? mascus blade of bright and trenchant , Satire, he cut us np with a rusty butcher-knife, which, considering us a nation of swine, he probably thought the most appropriate weapon. For? getting his own carricature in Pick? wick of French travelers in England, lie himself er acted tho part of Count Hrnorltork in America. He gravely dcclaii-.l ju his veracious sketches (hat all American men chew tobacco and talk through their noses, and that all American women are ignorant. He spoke of public journals in the North as the Sewer, the Stabber, thc? Family Spy, the Private Listener, Peeper, the Plunderer, the Keyhole A Dish for Dickens. Reporter, the Rowdy Journal-a nomenclature possibly suggested by j his own character and instincts. He represented an intelligent Ame? rican editor, speaking in language like this: "There a'int an engine with its biler bust in these free United States so fluinmuxed to a most e-tar nal smash as that young crittur, Queen Victoria, in her luxurious lo? cation in thc Tower of London, will be when she reads the next double extra number of my paper. May the British Lion have his tad eradicated by the noble bill of the American Eagle, and be taught to play on the Irish harp aud the Scotch liddle the enchanting music of Yankee Doodle," He was thrown into spasms, of course, by the slave institution which his own country had stablish ed in America. "This, the land ot* liberty! They're so fond of liberty in this part of the globe that they buy bel? aud sell her and carry her to market with 'em. They've such a passion for liberty that they can't help taking liberties with her. The stars wink upon the bloody stripes, and liberty pulls down her cap upon hei cys, aud J owns oppression in its vilest aspect for her sister. " Such aro some specimens of the "Americau Notes" and "Martin Chuzzlewit" productions, which may provo thc author not only to be at home in tho realm of fiction, but never to leave them, and which cer? tainly do not show to advantage by the side of DeToqueville's profound volume upon America, or the digni? fied observations of Lord Marpe th, and others of that class of English gentlemen to which Mr. Dickens does not belong either by social position or by that higher patent of a noble and magnanimous character which nature confers. The genuine jewel of his undenia? ble genius sparkles in the head of a toad, and even the touching pathos of his protraitures of human suffer? ing may have no deeper sources than the equally beautiful sentimentality of Sterne. When Mr. Dickens again visits our ! country, we hope he will find it more to his likiug. He will discover that we have survived his book on America, and are doing as well as could be ex? pected. GENEKAIJ PISTON'S DETERMINATION. I once heard an anecdote of Picton, from an officer who was himself at Waterloo. Picton, I was told by this officer, was wounded thc day before Waterloo, but had concealed his hurt, and with the most heroic fortitude, remaiuod in tho field. During thc night, however, the agony of his wound obliged him to send for a surgeou, who remained with him until dawn; and, on his leaving, Picton thus addressed him: "You say that my wound is dan? gerous-mortal; that I am unfit for duty, and must be represented so to tiie'uukcV" "Such is my opinion," said the medical man. "I think it would bc impossible for yon to take command of your division." "Leave me to judge that, sir," said Picton, "and in the meanwhile, allow ?ne to ask you a question. From your long knowledge of rue do you con? sider me strictly capable of keeping my word?" "I have eveiy cause to believe so," returned the surgeon; "but why the question, Sir Thomas?" "Simply for this reason," returned Picton, "that I have made up my [ mind to be in the field with my ! brigade; and I give you my word of honor, both as u gentleman and a soldier, that, if you place my name in your report as unfit for duty, I will shoot you with my own hand." The surgeon shrugged his shoul? ders, shook Picton by the hand, and ' withdrew. Thu gallan^ General's name was accordingly omitted amongst the wounded; and as his wish had often been expressed, that he might die amidst the blaze of battle, he was gratified.
