JOHNSON AND GRAY.
In 1747, Gray published his Ode on a
distant prospect of Eton College, in which
he thus addresses Father Thames :
" Say, Father Thames, for thou hast seen
77 Full many a sprightly race.
Disporting on thy mergent green. -
What idle progeny succeed '
To chase the rolling circle's speed,
Or urge the flying ball 1"
In 1749, Dr. Johnson published his Ras-
cJan which occurs this opostrophe to
ters ! Thouthat rollest thy floods through blood ot a huge wolf which had approach
eighty nations, to 'the invocations of the ed the cradle with felonious intent, and
aughter of thy native King. Tell me if
thou -waterest, through all thy course, a
single habitation lrom which thou dost
not hear the murmurs of complaint ?"
In 1781, Johnson, in his life of Gray,
'thus petulantly and unjustly criticises the
. , V'- 7. r.''i 1
oeauuiui passage irom wnicn we nave
quoted: "His application to Father
Thames to tell him yJio drives, the hoop,

Less universal but held of equality firm

on which Sir Walter? built his ballad of
Beth Gelcrt. In Welsh tradition, in Scot

qualities he may have had," whatever no

for him ; I Van never forgive his after con
duct to the Princess who saved his life;

which there is too much reason to believe
that it was even worse. It is but too pro

Biography. A gentleman of literary
celebrity was once asked, " If all books,
ancient and modern with two exceptions,
were to be destroyed, which he would
Wish to have saved from the general ru
ins." He answered, " the Bible and Plu
tarch's Lives." By which he meant to
convey t
le idea that the Histories of the
Lives of eminent men would - convey les
.f
sons of wisdom, stimulate -to virtue and
deter vice. Pope also has said
' The proper study of mankind is Man."
Indeed a sketch of the lives of eminent
men may be compared to a chart, which
point out to ft youth all the dangers which
surround him show liim how he may a
void the shoals and quicksands which are
thickly scattered over the sea of life, and
buoys out thp channel which conducts to
honor, and virtue.
Infertprs.-f-Ks there, are none so weak
that we. may venture to injure them with
impunity, so there are noneo low that
they may not at some t jme be able to re
pay an jobligation. Therefore what be
nevolence would dictate, prudence should
confirm. For he that is cautious of in
sulting: the weakest, and not above oblig
ing the lowest, will have attained such
habits of forbearance amTof complacency
as will secure him the good-will of all
that are beneath him, and teach him to
avoid the enmitv of all thatare above him.
For he that would not bruise even a worm,
will be still more cautious how he treads
upon a- serpent. Colton.
