In the year 1782, when twenty-seven years of age, he i|iiitted his father's roof ;nnd rented n small house and studio in Wardour street, London; and what was more, he married?Ann Denham wag the name of his wife?nnd a cherry, bright sotiied, noble woman she was. lie believ ed that in marrying her he should be nhle to work with an intenser spirit; for. like uiin, she had a taste for poetry and art, and, besides, was nil enthusiastic admirer' ol her husband's genius. Yet, when Sir Joshua Reynolds?himself a bachelor met Flaxman shortly niter bis marriage he said to him, "So, Flaxman, I am told you arc married; if so, sir, I tell you von arc ruined Tor an artist." Flaxman went; straight home, sat down beside his wife I took her band in his, and said, "Ann, I I am ruined for an artist." "How so. John? ! How has it happened? and who has done it?' i "It happened," he replied "in the church I and Ann Denham lina done it." He then I told her of Sir Joshua's remark, who=e I opinion was well known, and bad been of- i ten expressed, that if students would ex- ! eel, they must brinjj the whole powers of I. Ihmr iu> ?1 ??tneir , J <? ? i ' - - ' , , ,-lT 'irt Iromthnj also that no man could be a great artist i, unless he studied the grand works of Raf fuclle, Michael Atigelo, and others atRome and Florence. ".And I," said Flaxman, drawing up his little ligure to its full height, "/ would be a great artist." "And a great artist you shall be," said his wife, "and visit Rome too, if that be really ne cessary to make yoti great." "But how?'" asked Flaxman. "Work and economize," rejoined the brave Wife; "1 will never have it said that Ann Denham ruined John Flaxman for an artist." And so it was tie- | termined by the pair that the journey to ! Rome was to b? made when their means would admit. "1 will go to Rome," said ! Flaxman, "and show the president that i wedlock is for a man's good rather than ? his harm; and you, Ann, shall accompany I mc." CHANTItKY. Chantrey was a robust man?every inch of him English. He was somewhat rough, but hearty in his demeanor; proud of his successful strugglo with the difficulties ' which beset him in early life, and above all, proud of his independence; He was born u. poor man's child, at Norton, near Sheffield. His father dying when he was a mere boy, his mother married again.? Young Ohantrey used to drive an ass laden with milk cans across its back into the neighboring town of Sheffield, and there serve his mother's customers with milk.? Such was the humble beginning of his in dustrial career; and it was by his own I strength that lie rose from that position, i nnd achieved the highest eminence as an I | artist. Xot taking kindly to his step- j father, the boy was sent to trade, and was ? first placed with a grocer in Sheffield.? j The business was very distasteful to him; but, passing a carver's shop window one (lay, his eye was attracted by the glitter ing articles ,it contained, and charmed with the idoa'of being a carver, he begged to be released from the grocery business with this object. His friends consented, and lie was bound apprentice to a. carver and gilder for seven years. DAVID W1LK1E.? The son of a poor Scotch minister, he gave early indications of an artistic turn ; and though he was a negligent nnd inapt scholar, he wns a sedulous drawer of faces and figures. A silent boy, lie.already dis played tliat quiet concentrated energy of character which distinguished him through life. Ho was always ,on tiie lookout for au opportunity to draw, and the wnlls of the manse, or the smooth sand by-the' river sidfc, entire' alike convenient for^liis purpose. Any sort of tool would servo him; like Giotto, he found a pencil in every burnt stick, a prepared ennvass in any smooth stone, aud the subject for n picture in every ragged mendicant lie met. When he visited a house, he generally left his mark on the walls as nu indication of his presence, sometimes to the disgust of cleanly housewives. In short, notwith standing the aversion of his. fiither, the minister, to the "sinful" profession of painting, Wilkie's strong propensity wag not to be thwarted, and he became uu art ist, working his way manfully up the steep of difficulty. DISRAELI. Mr. DTsraoIi affords an instance of the power of industry and application in working out nn eminent public career.? Ilia first -achievements were in literature, nnd he reached success only through a suc cession of I'ailureB. His "Wondrous'Tale of'Alrojr" dnd "Revolution Epic" were laughed at, and regarded as indication of literary lunacy. Bnl be wprked on in oth er directions, and bis.!'Coniugsby," "Sybil" and "Tuncred" proved the sterling stnlf of which be was made. As an orator, too, bis first appearance in the House of Com mons was a failure. It was spoken of as "more screaming than an Adelphi farce." Though composed in a grand and ambitious strain, every sentence was hailed with "loud laughter." "Hamlet," played as a com edy were nothing to it. But he concluded with a sentence which embodied a proph ecy. Writhing under the laughter with which bis studied eloquence had been re ceived, he exclaimed, "I have begun sev eral times many things, and have succeed ed in them at last! I shall sit down now, but tlie time-will come when you will hear me " The time did come; and how D'lsraelt Succeeded ijy at length command-; ing the rapt attention of the first assembly of gentlemen1 in the world, affords n strik ing illustration of what energy and de termination will do; for D'lsraeli earned his position by dint of patient industry. . [From tlio llicfimont]'Wliip.] Protection aixl Exteiiilon of Slavery. _ BELL VS. BRECKINRIDGE. Uh t the voters of tbe South may un derstand fully the differences of opinion between Bell and Breckinridge, on the two great questions that intimately con cern their rights?the protection and exten sion of slavery?we annex in parallel col umns, the declarations of both in refer enfre thereto.
