mbecility. A pretty prospect, indeed! Mr. Johnson concludes with total ruin , and thus finishes the most melancholy epistle which we have read for many a day. We will do him the justice to say that in the water-cart style he is easily first. Choate is lurid, but Johnson is moist. The only encouraging thing which he says is, that the Kansas excitement is permanently closed; and he exults thereat. If he really thought so, he might have made his letter somewhat shorter and a trifle gayer. W fashion of lugubriosity had gone out, and that our public men of the Democratic party were about to show a little valor, and affect a confidence in the stability of the Union, even if they possessed it not. But they get worse and worse. The Hon. Rufus Choate, as we understand, now wears a hair shirt, fasts for seven days together, and spends all his leisure hours in offering prayers for the preservation of the Union. The Hon. Edward Everett has been a stranger to happiness for several years,

In truth, Mr. Choate argues the matter with great profundity. Helitics he cannot understand. He will ) said Mr. Choate, have learned from his Bible that the race oneralities are modified by civil society. Mr. Choate is clearly advancing. Some years ago he dis join the church of the Rev. Dr. Adams--then Mr. Choate is right and his pastor is right. But this nt; but we cannot, of course, keep pace with Mr. Choate.

it is the prescribed privilege of Freshman and of Sophomore to pull the presidential nose, or to assault an offending tutor. It is a college in which every Freshman may be called to recitation by his private and personal Sambo, and may even employ a learned nigger, if he can find one, to coach him through Euripides and Cicero. This is the college which is to knock into a sort of classical and mathematical Carthage, dear old Harvard and always respectable Yale, Dartmouth, which produced Rufus Choate, and all other Northern seminaries whatever. No wonder The Louisiana Democrat looks forward to such a foundation with pleasant emotions, and anticipates a new impetus to the science, learning and literature of a great country. A Southern University! What a pleasing notion! How suggestive of exegesis, cumulative and conclusive, concerning Joseph, Abraham and Moses, Paul and Onesimus, illustrating the true significance of doulos, and historically, critically and classically proving, t

If the late Mr. Rufus Choate, while he succeeded as nisi prius lawyer, failed as a statesman, we do not best of his not inconsiderable ability, those who have been more fortunate. Mr. Choate may have had little fondness for political life, and no aptitude whatever forneer at the distinguished active statesmen of the day. Nor did the memory of Mr. Choate require any such apology. A lawyer in great practice, exceedingly devoted tochstone of political character at the present time, and the test was fatal to Mr. Choate. He thought to be enslaved was the best for the blacks, and that to enslave t questions — in timidly avoiding the conflict when danger was at its height, Mr. Choate did nothing worthy of imitation or eulogy. We are not permitted to avoid tbut the responsibility of any pain which we may give to any honest admirer of Mr. Choate, must be borne by his Faneuil Hall Eulogist. It is better that we and those

Charles Congdon, Tribune Essays: Leading Articles Contributing to the New York Tribune from 1857 to 1863. (ed. Horace Greeley), Mr. Bancroft on the Declaration of Independence. (search)
Mr. Bancroft on the Declaration of Independence. Mr. Rufus Choate, deceased, has left upon record his opinion, that the ethics of the Declaration of Independence are merely glittering generalities. Mr. Caleb Cushing, muzzy and mazy as he is, in thought and expression, has contrived to assert, with tolerable clearness, that in his opinion all men are not born free and equal. Mr. Charles O'Connor is of the same mind. So in his day was Mr. John C. Calhoun. Of course there is nothing to be useless to palterers. We did not need it, but we are happy to have the opinion of Mr. George Bancroft, the best known of our historians, that the Declaration was not a tissue of glittering generalities. Mr. Bancroft contradicts the late Mr. Rufus Choate point blank, and in words which are curiously responsive to those of that advocate; for Mr. Bancroft says distinctly that the Declaration avoided specious and vague generalities. Again, those who have been misled by the indignant or contemp
