, 'next week,' hud now put oil" that loo easy cred

liad seti'cu !' engagements of that nature, or,
in the language of .'us ' Testamur' tho prettiest
bit of Latin, he declared, he ever saw 'safiM'
fetit txaminatoribus.1 U.iques'.ioiiably, in his
case, the examiners must huvehad ill 'r v,r
tue of being very easily satisfied. In faci, Mr.
SavileS discharge of his educutionul engage
ments was rather a sort of 'whitewashing' than
payment in full. His passing was what is
technically called a 'sliave;' a metaphor alluding
to that intellectual density which finds it diffi
cult to squeeze through the narrow portal which
admits to the privileges of a Hachelor of Arts.
At Mr. S. himself, being a sporting man, de
scribed it, it was 'a very close run, indeed;' not
that he considered that circumstance to derogate
in any way, from his victory; he was lather in
clined to consider, that, having shown the field
of examiners capital sport, and fairly got away
from them in the end without the loss of his
brush, his examination had been one of the very
best runs of the season. In virtue whereof, he
' was now mounted on the arm of an easy chair,
with a long 'chiboque,' which became the grav
ity of an incipient oachelor better than a cigar,
and took upon himself to give Thornhill (who
was really a clever fellow, and professing to he
reading for a first) some advice us to his
conducting himself when his examination should
arrive.
'I'll tell j ou what, Thornhill, old boy, I'll give
you a wrinkle: it doesn't always answer to let
out all you know at un examination. That sly
old vnrmint, West, of Magdalen, asked me who
hud its etn-et, aided by a wMl-timcd compliment
to the aristocratically small hand and fnot, or
which Horace was pardonably vain. Shaving
was pronounced indispensable to the due growth
of the whiskers; and the importance of the char
acter, and the point of the situations, so strong
ly dwelt upon, that he became gradually recon
ciled to his fate, and began to debate the ques
tion whether Miss Hardcast'e should wear her
hair in curls or bands. A freshman of seven
teen, who had no pretensions m the way ot
whuker and was '00 happy to he admitted
on any terms to a share in such a 'fust idea' as
the getting up a piny, d to be the Miss Ne
ville : and before the hall t?U rang for dinner,
an order had been despatched for a dozen acting
copies of 'She Stoops to Conquer.'
Times have materially changed since Qu;cn
Elizabeth's visit to Christ-Church; the Univer
sity, one of the earliest nurses of the infant dra
ma, has long since turned it out of doors for u
naughty child; and forbid it, under pain of worse
than whipping, to come any nearer than Abing
don nud Jhcestcr. Taking into consideration
the style of some of the performances, in which
under-graduates of some three hundred years
ago were the actors, the 'Oxford Theatre' of
those days,, if il had more wit in it than the pre
sent, had somewhat less decency : the ancient
That Hap in ths Faea.
We republished, not long ago, from the Bal
timore Futriot, which had ropied il from the
Old Defender, llie story concerning General
Pierce's having been slapped in the face by a
brother officer in the city of Mexico, and tamely
submitting t(J the insult. We republished il
without comment, as copied into a paper of high
ehuracter, and given upon what it was said was
perfectly sufficient authority. The following
correspondence has been culled forth by a sub
sequent denial of the fact, in the Baltimore
Argus:
11a i.timor r, Sept. 13, 1852.
Dea r Sib : From tho denial in the Argus
of Friday last, which I enclose, and also an
anonymous udverlitemctil in the Sun, pronounc
ing your charge against Gen. Tierce false, I find
it necessary to bring the matter lo un issue so
fur as the Patriot is concerned.
We copied an article from tho ''Old Defend
er," which article induced you to wait on me
with a communication in reply to the remarks of
the Argus, which I published in the Patriot of
the 7th the day of our interview. On that day
you stated that you expected to be away for
some weeks, but was willing, at the proper
time, to certify over your own signature, to the
facts as communicated in reference to the affair
bet ween General Ticrccand Captain McGruder
when in Mexico.
A day or two sinco, as I learn, the editor of
the Argus told some gentlemen who called upon
him that he was authorized by you to contradict
the whole statement. Now, it seems to me to
be due to yourself, us well as to the whig press,
that your certificate be published at once, and if
you will be us good as to send it by return mail,

Hut Athenais rene.wed her lamentations, nnd
her tears flowed more freely as she listened to
her father's words. Grief had gained the mas
tery over her spirit, and, for a time, it ruled
with despotic sway. Calmly Leontius waited
until the violence of the storm had passed, and,
in the lull of those passionate emotions, he said,

of wisdom and virtue which I have taught thee,
