AUTuonsur.-Mr. Miacaulay's "History" is out of print. Three thou sand copies-the number of the first edition-ard already sold; find a second edition-it is said an iinproved one-is already ini the press. The rumor runs that the author has sold his two vol umnes for-ten years to'the Mg rs. Lanig* man, for an annuity of A*.600 for thata period. If poetry be down in market value, history is,. it scems, up. "The Row" and Alboermarle street would now probably return "Paradise Lost" without looking at it-so that Simmnons' ?5 wvas, after all, a liberal sum for ian epic poem, when, we contrast 1848 with 1607. Hume made very little by his "History;" but Smollett made 2,000 iia ~vry short time-and his work is said to have sol to the .then amazing extenit of' 10,000 copies. It was time that history' should have a turn. Mr'. Hlallamn's histoirical works hiive, it is true, gold well;. but Carter strug gled hopelessly against wa'nt-and Sir Harris Nicolas, whose whole life was dedicated unremittingly~to the illustira tion of Englisli history, had just passed from amongst us in circumstances too painful to describe. Our writers should learn, hon'ever, (and there are exam ples enough already to have taught them). that the mere heapipg together of facts, the dlry disijlay, as it were, of antiquarian diligence, has but slender charms for the general reader. The labors of Carte and 'icolas arc-like the drawings of'great mastrs-of use only to students. The multitude look for color and ceibiposition, and for that skill whlich can "even make dry bones live." "ens addi floasing ac count of the hok ni~e 'tiat' i0,000 colies' of Mfr.

Sevoral battalions of the regular troops, line,'guari, and artillery. opened the procession.

Brevet Major Damiel T. Chapman, (Captain .1d infantrv,) is brevetted Lieut. Colonel.' EXAmN.ATIon DA.-The science of a schobl examination is v'ery prettily explained by a schoolmaster's anecdote. A country schiool-teacher, preparing for an exhibition of his school. selected a class of pupils, and wrote down the questions and answers to questions that lhe would put to them on examination day. The day came and with it came the hopefuls, till but one. Tfhe pupils took their plaes~ ats had been arranged, and all went glibly en uniil the question for the ab.setmee, whlenm t m t eachier asked: 'In whom do .von believe?' Thle pupil who' -: umx to the vacant seatwithut oticng hose question it 'Napoleon EcTunparte.' 'No, no~!' angrily exclaimed the teacher. 'in whom dlo you believe?' 'Nabpoleon Bonaparte.' Ihere the teacher began to smell the rat, and sid: 'You believe in the Iholy Ghost, do you niot?' 'No!' said the pupil; amid roars of un controllable laughter, 'the boy that be. hieves in the Iholy Ghost, has'nt come to school to-daty; ho's at home sick abed.' A Sunavn REi'LY.---A young friend of ours was undergoing an ex amination for admission to the bar. Judge 5-.--had pushed his questions pretty closely, but the candidate was never at fault. Finally, the Judge pounced upon him as follows: "Suppose that a Boston importer should come to you with a case like this"-and hero the Judge went on to state one of the most complicated questions that arise in re gard to marine insurance. It was a poser. Our friend, intending to prac tice in the country, was not "posted" up" on this topic. But ho was a Yan kee, and he never was at a loss for an answer. So sooni as the Judge had summed up his ease, and closed off with the inquiry, "What would you say?" Our friend promptly replied, "I should tell him to sit down, sir, until I could look at my books."
