•olva a problem, io a type of tba lima required by others. Patrick Henry wae n man. perhaps of | this description. Though unedaeated ia t l.ia early days, yet bisstmai and inventive mind grappled snth ever* emorgancy, and hie oraloty by impulse, ahea tba exiganciet of «()* occasion required it, was of a I high ordaTRnd claimed alike tka admiration or bis frkqnda and adversaries, lie ( roe# from olit\riiy to fame by a gifted ganiaa aaldom allOMVUTo man 7 ttxlby bi» brilliant eloqneorn in tb* Virginia Tlouir of Drlegates, shaped- tha aveDU of tbr , iter, -lotion, which nVHOtoally reanlled in the liberty and Ireedota of our cbariaban ' land. May tbie signal example of *uere«v ; under adverse circumstances — and othermight be mentioned of later time# — be en encouragement to tbe seeker of knowledge, tbet although he may not hope to run a parallel with a Henry, y«t ho may aapir- ! to emulate his position, aod by a Ufa ol rectitude and usefulness, command tb*. respect of his countrymen for tba services be msy render them as a scholar, a aisles man, ar a philanthropist. England, wilh all ber pride, prestige end powar, it far behind free Ao. erica ia i general intelligence aud education. It is j trie lb* aristocratic portion of bar pro. pie. or those who stand in the lion of pri- j mogsniiure, inheriting Iroro father to sen" | their princely ettetee and their hereditary - titles from generation lo generation, receive a liberal and accomplised allocation, i Ha wbo is so unfortunate in that country j as to b* born without tba pal* of nobility. I or io other words, a poor man, most put I hia trasl in 1'rovideoce, oot only for an j aducelioo, but hia very existence there 1 after; and tbia perhaps, l* tba ease in all | limited mooarchiti. If we revert beck to 1 Ancient Borne we will God tbal a similar : • tale of thing* existed at that early period . of oor world's history.
