cial reference to the instruction of two lads, one of whom was John Codman, afterwards the pastor of the second church in Dorchester. An intimate friendship had grown up in college between Sumner and Joseph Story, of Marblehead, who was two years his junior in the course. A correspondence ensued. Their letters are playful, and hopeful of the future. Sumner's letters refer to books and poems he had read, as Hogarth Moralized, Roberts' Epistle to a Young Gentleman on leaving Eton School, Masson's Elegy to a Young Nobleman leaving the University, Pope's Eloisa to Abelard, Goldsmith's Edwin and Angelina, Shenstone's Pastoral Ballad, and some pieces in Enfield's Speaker. Sumner did not persevere as a teacher. In 1797-98 he passed nearly a year in the West Indies. He then began the study of law with Judge George R. Minot, an historical writer and effective public speaker. As early as 1799 he accepted an invitation from Josiah Quincy to a desk in his law-office; and was, while the

Afterwards I went with him to the Museum of the French Colonies; then to the Bibliotheque du Louvre, which is the private library of the sovereign. Among the specialties here is a unique collection on Petrarch, made by an Italian, Professor Masson, whose life and soul were absorbed by this idea. Here also are the ornamented books which have belonged to the recent sovereigns. In the evening went to Mr. Brooks's, where I met M. and Madame Mohl, Julius Mohl (1800-1876). Madame Mohl, nee Mary Clarke, was born in 1793, and died in 1882. and also the professor. April 10. Called on M. Vattemare, who showed me his American collection.

The Ownership of the Trent. --The British steamer Trent, on board of which Messrs, Masson and Slidell were captured, is owned by a joint-stock company, styled the Royal Mall Company of London. With the single exception of the Peninsular and Oriental Company, they are the largest steamship owners in Great Britain, their operations extending to the coasts of South America, Central America, Mexico, and the West Indies.
er of the Vice-Presidents being present, the Rev. T. V. Moore, D. D., was called to the chair. Members of the States of South Carolina, Virginia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Georgia, had their names enrolled. The report of the Board of Managers showed as the operations of the year, the purchase and publication of 86.843 volumes of the Testament, and Testament, and Testament and Pealing. Of this number 70,000 have been published under the auspices of the society. The rest were purchased. Nine cases of the latter have been received from British and Foreign societies via Masson. Whole number distributed by the board, 65,878 volumes; leaving a balance of 20,965 on hand. Receipts of the society up to 1st of April $51,000, disbursements $10,000; leaving $44,000 in the hands of the treasurer. Hon. J. H. Lumpkin was re-elected President of the society, and all the Vice Presidents were retained. Next annual meeting to be hold in Augusta, on the third Monday in April, 1854, at 7 ½ P. M.
Later from Europe. The steamship City of London, from Liverpool 23d ult., has arrived at New York. The report by the previous steamer of Mr. Masson's withdrawal, is confirmed. The Times, in alluding to the withdrawal, says: "The Confederates are offended with England for trying to keep in the right. We are sorry for it. The loss, however, is theirs, while the relief to the British nation is great. She will have nothing to repent." The Times warns the British Government against going too far in stopping the building of ships for the Confederates while furnishing munitions of war to the Federals. Such a course bears too much resemblance to the views of Federal politicians. The Paris Moniteur (Government organ) had created a great sensation by publishing the manifesto of the Polish National Government on the 10th of August. This was regarded as a virtual or moral recognition of the belligerent rights of the Poles by France. The reply of Russia to Engla
