MISCELLANEOISI READIXO. __
SHERIDAN AND PERCEVAL.
It is said in a recent biography thgt Sher
idan wasonee completely overcome by a touch
ing quotation from one of his own poems.
It was during the debate of 1S11 on the Re
gency, when Sheridan, as a leader of the
Prince of Wales’ friends, had been indulging
in rhodomontade as to some fancied wrong,
in history or poetry; he was replied to by Mr.
Perceval* who, alluding to the old king’s ac
tual woe and wretched desolation, quoted
from Sheridan’s own epilogue to Semi ram is,
lines which carried away the House and over
whelmed his antagonist:—
“Thou child of sympathy; whoe’er thou art.
That with Assyria’s queen hast wept thy part,
Go search where living sorrows ask relief.
Go while thy heart yet beats with fancied
grief;
Thy lips still conscious of the recent sigh,
The graceful tear still lingering in thy eye;
Go, and on real misery bestow
The blest effusion of fictitious woe.”
There are a great many people in the
world who will ask, ‘where shall we summer?'
and having answered the question to their
nrwin i'hoir hankers for the
necessary dollars, and go ahead. There are
others again who have no bankers to draw
upon. For such the question is solved by
their necessities. It will thus be seen that
the people of this Republic are divided into
two classes—one of which have the ability
to summer where they please, the other
have not. We l>elong to the latter. But we
do not envy those who are so fortunate as to
belong to the other class. We are content
with "our lot, and envy no man his posses
sions. There are a great many pleasant
things within the reach of poor people—a
good many enjoyments, that rich folks do
not understand or appreciate. People do
not ask a ]>oor man to endorse their notes.—
He is not made a bank director to have his
life pestered out of him for discounts; he is
not bothered with solicitations for subscrip
tions to railroad stocks; is never made chair
man at a public dinner, or required to head
the list of contributors to hospitals, or obser
vatories, or tow ard the expenses of elections.
He gets his pay every Saturday night, and
rests° comfortably under the assurance that
bis family, will have bread for another week.
Nature smiles just as pleasantly and the birds
sing just as sweetly for the poor as for the
rich, and the fresh air breathes upon all
alike.—Albany AV«/.
