 "Any strange beast there makes man,

 There are good many places, where it 1 is the case. In fact, l know of no way, except robbing the mail, which makes one a man, so soon as becoming. or pretending to be, a strange beast'--an oddlty-a sin- gularity. For example, there Is your sen timentalst-your Sorrows-of-Werter man. Now, take on myself to say. that in nine cases oat Of ten, tile pasttlsiies pasttlsiies and cant oi feeling which you hear young men and wo- men assume, IS only used to gain notice.-- Then there Is your blunt man--he who in- suits, because, forsooth, he Is no ilatteger. Such man,

 "Haying been praised for bluntness, doth

 affect

 A saucy roughness; and constrains the

 garb

 "Quite from his nature: lie cannot flatter,

 he!

 "An honest mind and plain; he must speak

 truth:

 "An' they will take t. so;i not, he's plain. y

 u $ amusing t, ol,ssarfe inc rneals bg which men aim at beeoning strange beasts. There is a natural disposition II mankind to make themselves show. One pretends 10 more righteousness, and another b mere vlllasily than lie possesses. 0ne preiends to much learning--uses long words--iays up store of them i'll his head, and lets them out any where, Whethef they it or nof. Another IS your common sense man. He would not have learniag--net he. One Is hot partlzan-another E attached to no party. Both aim at distinction, but by diff ferent roads. But oi all strange beasts de- liver me from your Lion--your literary, critical, political or fashionable Lion .si here is not {. more feariai wid-fowi than your Lion, iiving;n and 1 would sooner be any thing than he--forced into display, and expected always to shine.

 ] There is your Poet--le Is a Lion--he must always have his mouth fall of soda water and flowers; he must spout; he must talk sentiment: deliver me froin him. here l is your politica! man. the party leader.- " iiieil Sir Oracle speaks, ietno deg b.rS. ; Thereis the fashionable Iion, the Gzar of the tailors. Never praise the cut Of a coat when he IS ky, lest he give you reputation for bad taste by disagreeing 10 your opin- ion. You mnst not smack your lips at glass Of wine. lest he should inform you 1 that if IS not true southsile. But of all Lions, pray you to observe and shan tlle l lady iiun-your belle of Iae-stoeliag--- she that gains hearts by the dozen, or sAe that u;ters poetry l,Y tlie feanl. have | most holy horror at all such wild fowl, and utterly esehew and avoid them. ] will, like Bcnedicl, go on the slightest errand to to the Antipedes thatyea M devise send me, or fetch a tooth-pielSer from the farthest inch of Asia, rather than hold three words conference with such harpy. \ belle is a compound of vanity and stiffness, and q blue stocking, of stiffness and vanity--that is ali the difference. Ave Marial and shield me from a female Lion!

 q do now let loose my opinion; hold 1t no longer"

 There are plenty of these eternal chat terers in the world, who would sooner talk nonsense than talk nethnng; who dc not express their opinions. but let them loose - so that they fly out like caged birds, all in a tumble. am of opinion that when one has but few ideas they never stand in each others way, and he gets them out of his head the easier. They never hit against one another Ill coming out of his mouth. - it is surprising how liitle men say, in con1- parison with the quantity of words they ut ter. You shall hear most men aid women talk for three hours, by Shrewsbury clock, and to pick three ideas cut of all they say, shall be as hard as to set gold by washing the sands of the Arkansas. 1 never listen to table talk, street talk or baby talk, with out calculating beforehand the chances of going crazy. Above ali, defend me from yycur witty people. t is sa,i pity when one has the reputation of being witty man, and Is obliged to upheld it, He must al- ways say something good--and generally, the true grains of wst in his discourse are like single herrings in the Atlantic ocean, few, and far between.
