Lamb on Byron.May 15, 1823. * * * So we have

lost another poet ! I never much rel-ished his Lordship's mind, and shallbe sorry if the Greeks have cause tomiss him. He was to me offlasive,and I never can make out his greatpower, which his admirers talk of-why, a line of Wordsworth's is a leverto lift the immortal spirit; Byron canonly move the spleen. He was at besta satirist, ton any other way, he wasmean enough. I dare say I do himinjustice, but I can not love him, norsqueeze a tear to his memory. He didnot like the world, and he has left it,as Alderman Curtis advised the Radi-cals-"If they don't like their country,-- 'em, let 'em leave it"-they pos-sessing no rood of ground in England,and he 10,000 acres-Byron was bit-

-terer than many Curtises.

A good saying is attributedlto Gen-eral Grant, As the steamer St. Paulwas approaching Pot'tland, in Oregon,the docks along the whole city frontwere filled with multitudes awaitingthe arrival of the General. Seeing sogreat a crowd he turned and quietlyremarked to those about him: "Ithink this demonstration must be inhonor of Mrs. Grant. When I landedhere twenty seven-years ago not a halfa dozen people met the steamer,"

A gentleman was promenading thestreet with a bright little boy at hisside, when the little fellow cried out :Oh I pa, there goes an editor I Hash,hush !" said the father, "don't makesport of the poor man-God onlyknows what you may come to yet."

-- 'sa--Scientific men now say that men's

brain's are made from the white of egg.The annmouncement was made only twoweeks ago and eggs have gone rightup. Large invoices have been for-warded to Washington, and hens areassuming tnore airs than an amateurpedestrian.

-0------"Coming back from a little trip to

Havre a Parisian thus bewailed hismisfortunes to a railway companion :"One thing is certain, you won't catchme on any more of these excursions.I have lost my wife and my cane."And then he added, with tears in hiseyes, "and it was a new cane, too !"
