Even at thi age he hired himself to the neighlairing iarnicn to cut wood, clear up "new ground," and aerve otherwiae in the humble capacity of hireil hiborer. In the meanwhile a Liate for literature developed itarlf. Ho enjoyed tlie mwt meager pnmible opiurtuiiitiu for atudy atudy-ing - ing atudy-ing under instructor; but ueh a were afforded hint were aeiiej with avidity. At home, alao, he pushed and diversified hia aliuJer aouiition by reading with eagcrnea before a fire of pine knot all the hook he could gather up in the neighborhood. In thi way he oon be came a kind of oracle among those of hi own age, and an authority of no little note with simple minded people of the neighborhood. It would appear that he was no dullard in divining hi destiny, aa it appear that he discovered a fixed intention to become a printer before reach reaching - ing reaching teen, and devoured any chance news newspaper - paper newspaper with something of the ferocity with which Dr. Johnson is said to have swal swallowed - lowed swallowed book. After various vicissitude and hard to harder, he finally rcaliied the coveted pleasure of learning to set ty, aad finally started to New York. He reached that city in his twentieth year with 110 in his pocket For many weary days tlie awkward looking country boy sought employment in vain. His adveut in New York is strikingly similtr in its circumstances of diacourage diacourage-meot, - meot, diacourage-meot, poverty and contempt to Ir. Franklin's first visit to Philadelphia; and the parallel continues a to the objects which the two adventurers proposed to themselves, their persistence in effort, art! the prompt success which awaited them as anon as their supercilious and doubting am plovers gave them au opportunity to display their capacity. Horace engaged in thi department ot newspaper-making but a short time before he ventured, like Benjamin, to try the dexterity of his pen. Will it be believed, that one ot the first sheets to which he contributed was a sporting eper, then, as now, called The Spirit 0 th Time T Yet such is the fact and while playing that gay role he also (and very naturally) became a frequent 40011 it of theatres. The latter, however, was matter of business as well at pleas pleasure. - ure. pleasure. In 1833 Mr. Greeley became oue of tlie originator of the Momittf J W, the first daily pajiar ever published In the city of New York.

Mr. Oreeley'a next venture, made its ap pearance in 1M4. In this journal w find him engaged in discussions wliirh furnish extraordinary example of the consistency of hi convictions and princi plea, for we find them paraphrased in to today's - day's today's 7WotMr. Almost with tlie first ap- rpearance of the Arm Yorhr he began hia attacks upon capital punishment; the eolonitntion of the negroes ; the evil of slavery; temperance reform, and protec tion to American industry. In 139 Mr. Greeley added to hi edi lorial staff the talented and brilliant Henry J. KtVloti(l, sulswqutntly so widely known a the editor of the New York rimes; and about tlie same time edited the Jrffmmtian and the Daily Wnig. In the famous Harrison cam' paign of 1840, ho made hi beet hit by publishing a sheet which rejoiced in the euphonious name of the Loy Cabin, and It is unnecessary to say thnt he placed it on tlie side of Hamson and the Whigs, In 1841 he started the Tribunt, a jour journal - nal journal through whose column he hat mode himself recognised as the first journalist of A merica, if not of the world. Since then his history has been that of rfte Tri Tribune, - bune, Tribune, and the latter has been fully identi fied with all the revolutions of American politics. He haa never wavered in his adherence to the principle he proposed for himself or others. Commencing a Whig, he has stood firmly with tliat party through all it changes down to the present time. Henry Clay was his es pecial favorite his model of a statesman Another distinguithed son of Kentucky, John J. Crittenden, was the object of his wnrmest admiration. His opposition to slavery was not of very enrncut char- actor until the annexation of Texas, from which time onward he never slated his antipathy and earnest hostility until it was alailishcd. His efforts in the cause of African freedom mt signally ex ceeded in pertence, zeal and success those of any other man in America. While a member of Congress, being elected in 1848, he signuliicd himself rather by his seal as a working member in behalf of his fuvorito measures than as an orator or dulaUar. Iu 1851 he went to Europe aa chairman of one of the com' mitwea of the great exhibition. At the approach of the unhappy war he labored earnestly to reconcile difference between tlie North and South, by striving to ob tain from both sections a recognition of the Constitution, and of those associated interests which he charged were about to he sacrificed to a momentary gust of pas sion. I hiring tlie war it was his con stunt endeavor to alleviate, necessary horrors, and to mediate in livhulf of the South. For hi eurncatiHW iu this noble effort he suffered tliat malignant persecu persecution - tion persecution which small minds are prone to in inflict - flict inflict upon a greatness which is to them inaccessible. Hi generous and indepe- dent course in becoming a surety on tlie bail bond of Jefferson Davis disgusted hi party associate no less thau it sur surprised - prised surprised the so-called rebel and traitor to use the mild phraseology current with the party which claims the honor of bis afiilliation without having the capacity to assimilate the national instincts 01 nit patriotism. Mr. Greeley has found time, in the midst of his multitudinous labors, to per form immense tasks a a lecturer and author. Hi works are either agriculu- ral, historical or statistical. He made a most notable donation to the aspiring vouth of America in hi Iiuoollection of a busy Lite, a familiar, detailed and philosophic potraiture of his own ener getic, busy life. Hit great work entitled The American Conflict ia an immense repository of facts and statistic. At to the work entitled "What I Know About Farming," the supposition that only a practical farmer ia capable of advising on agricultural subject ha subjected tlie author to tome ridicule ; but competent judges pronounce it to be entirely worthy of his general ability, and vast miscella neous knowledge. There are several of hers of equal note. As lecturer he has treated a wide range if subjects with much applause, and in all Mictions of tlie country. His genius is much more cosmopolitan, much mure varied, than ia generally supposed. It would surprise many to witness the fuwhes of wit and humor which play amid the olid works of hi lecturing essays ; and would, perbnps, be a cause of greater aniaiemont to hear that the Philosopher of Chappaqua has even been a poet. Yet the columns of various old New York paper fib contain abuudont evi dence that such was the fact. The diatiiiguiahing trait of Horace Greeley's personality are blunt honesty, sturdy independence, philosophic- range and clearness of viasion, unfaltering aud unwearying eoiuiUteucy and devotion to principle. He undoubtedly has fault, but they are nut such a to taint hi in tentions with duhonesty. Ill mind 1 singularly eniancited from the shackle of party, sect or section.

COLOR FOR EVEWlgO DRJC. A lady of taste will not firgH that wlenchange according a they are looked at hy day or by lamp-light, and w see her in the middle of the day stepping into a closed saloon lit up with gas to choose her evening dresses. A rule soon learned by experience in such things is that a color gains or losses m beauty by daylight according to the greater or lesser quantity of yellow it contains. Violet, which is the opposite of yellow, is that which change most ; it becomes a dull reddish-brown. Blue, if pure, becomes greenish; if dark it looks hard and blackish ; if light, it lose color and turns gray. There is a shade of blue which has no brilliance by day, hut acquires a great deal by the yellow light of gas, while turquoise silks, charm charming - ing charming by daylight, are quite effaced under the light of a ball-room. Those greens which incline most to yellow look the prettiest of an evening. Thus apple greeu acquire the brilliant tint of emerald; peacock green loses its blue reflects, aid becomes too yellowish. xellow materials are certainly those which appear best hy lamp-light, espec ially silk and satins, Buttercup yellow, so bright at any time, is brighter than ever at evening; straw-eolor becomes rosier, sulphur-color does not change, and maise becomes exquisitely soft and clear. AU brunettes know how extreme extremely - ly extremely becoming it is to them in the ball room. Pink changes to a salmon-color. The yellow light of gas or candles, so hostile to all blue tints, euhancca th splendor of red. Foot become more brilliant. angc-like tone, and orange vies with fire- color. Even black and white are subject! to the altercations caused by artificial light; bluish-blacks, by far the more handsome by day, lose all of their beautiful blue shade, and becomes hard and dull. White, on the contrary, gains much by lamp-light; lTfaded, it lights up aaiii, and actresses often choose yellowish yellowish-white - white yellowish-white dresses, knowing they will look best on the stage. Perhaps the loveliest of all shades for the evening is silver gray, which acquires a somewhat rosey tint; but gray which contain any amount of blue, iuch as pearl gray, lose all their beauty and look dull at soon a lamps are lit. Buooeaaful Editor. An English writer says: "A good edi editor, - tor, editor, or competent newspaper conductor, is like a general or poet, born, but not made. Exercise and experience give facility, .but the qualification is innnSe, or it is never manifested. On the Lon London - don London daily papers all (he great historians, novelist, poets, writers of travels, and essayist, have been tried and nearly ev ery one has failed. 'I can,' said tlie late editor of the London rimes, 'find any number men ot genius to write for me, but very seldom one of common sense.' Nearly all auoccasful editon are of this description. A good editor seldom writes much for his paper: be reads, judges, selects, dictates, altera and com bines, and to do all this well he has but little time for composition. To write lor a pair is one tiling, to edit a paper is another. Printing UvtetU. A Type-Sotting Prodigy.
