 He has learned ihe wants Of men by mingling

 with them in sli conditions of life. He has

 talents sufficient tO qualify him fur any busi-

 ness. for any emergency, without ever being

 above it. His education was as good as the

 means of his father and the condition Of the

 country. cOnld afford hut there was more

 use for soldiers than school masters iD Ten

 ncssee in his day. That he has talents and

 acquiTements Of the frat order. is admitted by

 AIl with whom he has measured strengih.-

 At the Bar Or On the Bench he did not suffer

 by comparison with such men as John Hay

 wood and Jenkyn Whiteside. When Com

 missioner under the Spanish Treaty, he was

 prOnOuncedb by Littlet"n Waller Tazewell, the

 present governor of Va., to be one of the a.

 blest men with whom he had been associated.

 It will be seen by an examination of his

 speeches in the Senate of the U. s. perhaps

 the ablest hOdy in the world in point of tai.

 ents, that he has fully sustained his reputation

 there as a man of talents--He has filled w wiih

 equal fidelity and ability many of the highest

 offices in his own State, and has been long

 Senator nlhe Congress of the United States.

The disappoint. nent was great, and the deceased mechanis, vas in great perpIexiY. Day after day. did le labor to discover. iha, he might remedy he defect-but in vain. But ~sst h,. co,ia not discover waking, was revealed to a;m in l1 lis sleep.

 It was perfectly natural, that the subject which engrOssed all his thoughts by day. mould be dancing through his uncusbed i'm. ,gination by night. and it so happened that >n one occasion, having fallen into si1mher with all the shafts and wheels of his mill \ hirling in his mind with the complexity of Ezekiel's vision. he dreamed of the absence Df an essential band upon one Of the wheels. | The dream was fresh in his mind On the fol- ! lAMing nasERaAgs and eepAisiag~ bright sNd ear f y to his works, he iB an instant detected the deficiency!
