The warmest admirers of Mir Eaton must we think, smile or laugh outright upon reading the fol- lowing nay, he cannot himself if he is as good na- tured as we think him, repress his risibles. For ourselves, we were so much tickled that we cannot resist the temptation to present it to our readers

 Passion and POetry-Love is not the only provo- catise to poesy-men often rhyme in a rage, and measure metre in their madness. In this frame of mind appeared to be the late Secretary Eaton

 "--great god of War,

 Lieutenant General to the Earl of Mar''- when he ndited his catastrophica episte to the ex- minister Ingham, saying thus:

 -"and nothing more be said by me,

 till face to face we meet."-

 For sublimity of expression, and desperation of purpose, what example more awful can be quoted If he had said, ' I'll not speak another word till I knock you into the middle of next week" the phra- seology would have been accounted vulgar and un- dignifed How happily too, does this deadly reso- ution to remain aciturn, illustrate trusm that has been trise a thousand years-ira Juror breyis est For poetical eiegaAce, know of but one parallel to the above-cited Etonian couplet-and that may be found in the writings ofthe renowned Furoso-piz

 Must meet Bombastes, face to face!'
