It may be olaireihg mote than almmorisb could wish to •assort -that he is always in earnest; hotline strikes is as the paradoxical charm of Mr.-Clethens' best ,Inimor.

He laughs, cortaiuly,at an obuse, at ill mannera, at conceit, at cruelty, and you must laugh with hirn ;. but if you enter.in'te tho very spirit of his humor, you feel that if hocatild things right there would be very little laughing. At the .bottom Oa his heort he has often the grimness •of a reformer ; his wit is turned by preference llbt 1.1.17011' human nature,not upon droll situations, and things abstractly, ludicrous, but upon, matters that are out of joint, that aro tin- fair or unnecessarily ignoble, and cry out to hi's love of justice' fot discipline..
