Tne car stopped and stood still long time without any apparent (rood reaMo, and then Orlando Pompeius entered. In any country where one can inherits title, he would be Lord, or Sir, or Honorable Orlando Pom-perns but here, where a man has to run for and be elected to hia titles, he ia simple and grand Orlando Pom-, peins, self -elected to all greatness. Hia entrance produced a sensation. He ia acrnstorned to produce sensations. The seats were all taken but that did not at all affect the comfort of the Great Orlando.

He never stands people discommode themselves to make room for him or, as happens very often, somebody vacates in his favor. Not that he in an atred man, or in any way decrepit not even I would dats suarxest it yet it seems to be airainst the popular conviction that bo much dignity should be entrusted to the support of a mere hand-strap. Orlando Pompeius, explain it as yon please, never stands in a car. There was a dinjry-coatod little reporter wedged next to me, and he whispered to me the substance of the next paragraph One day, about noon, lie on his way down town, and the car was not only graced, but stuffed with beauty and elegance on their way to Canal street. Excepting the driver, the august Orlando was the only male on board." tiat maites you say on board T77 said I to the reporter; but he went on eagerly Orlando's capacious person was ensconced with a certain grandeur of ease in the left.

hand rear corner. After a time the car stopped, and in there stepped a stately maiden." Quit ringing in poetry said to the reporter: but he whispered on The car was full. For once in his life the great Orlando stood face to face with a dilemma for once in his life he perspired. Was ever gallantry and dignity so opposed, so irreconcil able At this moment his fertile brain conceived a plan of operations looking to a compromise. Rising slowly, he pulled the strap, and when the car had settled to perfect stillness he advanced to the lady and said, as nearly as he could have said it: Madam, I hope you will do me the honor to occupy my seat." Having-so spoken, Orlando Pompeius, with great deliberation, walked out of the car anil continued his journey on ot.

An ordinary man would have stood up, or would have gone in front with the driver, or would have stepped quietly out but none of these courses could possibly have receive! a mo ment's consideration from this man of augnst deportment. He couldn't see What said I to the rejior ter. He couldn't see Be so kind, young man. said as never to use that expression in my hearing again Cut I have alluded to a particular occasion on which it was my proud pleasure to accompany Orlando Pom peius. When be had quite stopped the car he approached it in a manner that convinced all inmates that any thing so unseemly and discomposing as the slightest haste was not under any circumstances to be expected of him anil when he entered there was not the least shade of apology on his countenance on the contrary, he wore a look of patronage as who should say, My good people, you are, indeed, about to enjoy the enviable fortune ot traveling tcith me, for a brie Five seconds may have passed when a dittident and rather nervons young gentleman fell an easy victim to the invincible gravity of his demeanor.

The young man got up and the gresit Pompeius sat down such is the world. 1 he yoniig man looked like the beneficiary, and Or lando had all the air of a lxnefactor. That beautiful relationship, indeetl. was soon quietly but undeniably established between the latter nained gentleman aixjl all the other passen gers. Pay me no such compliment as to suppose that I was an exception.

When he adjusted his glasses anil lie gan to take a calm survey or us, we experienced a sensation tarmiething -akin to what might be felt by an in telligent bug, if he could be got understand that he was being ob served through a microscope. It is a peculiarity of street-car travel that no man can get into a full one without meeting some fellow creature ith a face more or less familiar. I hope you will notice- the truth of this, as I commence a new paragraph purposely to give it prominence. Now it came to puss that there was a man on board who ap peared to have a sort of acquaintance with Orlando Pompeius. which was acknowledged by a slight inclination of the head.

That man in the popu lar estimation, rose at once head and shoulders over all the rest of us, standing; only second to the majestic Orlando hiinaelf. Nor did he seem altogether unconscious of the glory of that reflected light with wliich he shone very soon I noticed something ajrtrressive in his bearing he was coins; to push his advantage. Could. it be Yes, he was going- to speak to Orlando. Sir," said the infatuated man.

it has been a beautiful day. There ensued a moment of thrilling expectancy. I felt the little reporter fumbling for his note book. The diffi dent young man wore a look of de precation as of a schoolboy who says I know who did it twern me Just a flush flitted over the classic features of the sublime Orlando P. whilst a slight frown corrugated his imposing- front.

Very gradually he brought his gaze to bear upon that audacious man, regarded him for while, and" then with a distinct am perfect, articulation made answer. "Sir, I have not hod occasion to ob serve any Ciing ununoul ux the state of the weather." Thus-he but the other nay, I shall describe no farther. It was a scene tor a painter, but the nearest painter wits out on the plat form with his back turned. Orlando the magnificent for a central figure, and every person and thing; beside nerving; as accessories and background, while the feeble lamplight of the car losing- itself in the night threw over all a powerful Item brand effect. And none spake again till he was gone.

A sage has said," said I (for every one turned to see what I would say), Manner is something to everybody and everything; to I am inclined to think the career of Orlando Pompeius goes far to establish the latter clause of the maxim. What has thin great man done What has he given away If he has any func tion in society it is to keep before its eyes an exceedingly high standard of deportment. He is not a carpet knight he is not an empyvic he is a man of manner. Talk of the tri umphs of democracy, if you please of equality and the like. Here two chaps, apprentices, began to talk about something, and were only aliashed by" my waiting for their silence.

But the Hon. (self -elected) Orlando Pompeius will walk into any assembly however radically red, and people will give him right of way and show him the greatest deference. He does not seclude himself as the Emperors of Japan used to do it is unnecessary. No man will venture twice to obtrude his curiosity into the sphere of Orlando Pompeius. solitary grandeur.

No, it hus transpired that he is not married. Can you suppose him undergoing those condescensions of dig nity almost inseparable from the con jugal state He would probably meet those tender familiarities with something like the remonstrance of a cer tain old English nobleman when she who had the best right to do it kissed him: Madame, my first wife was a Howard, and she never took such a Aa I gve the illustration, every man in the car solemnly removed his hat from his head and gravely bowel.

lie has a riroroui constitution upon which no exertion of mind or body has ever made inroads. Of all legal matters he has a com-ct and ready knowledge, and he is always ready in dealing in evidence. He delivers himself with considerable emphasis, and presents to both judge anil jury the facts of the case boldly and in high relief. He is an adept in subtle irony, delicate satiru and short and pungent witticisms. Mr.

Koselius has a sanirnine tempern-mi-nt, and often succeeds in his object by force of will and one-sided convictions. An able biography of this crentleman was written and published, in this eity several years aii. for which reason I do not i-onsider it necessary to dwell longer in this sketch. HON. RAXHELL HI NT.

Hon. Randell Hunt was born in ha rl. -it-ton. South Carolina. He is about rifty years of age, and above the middle size.

He has been United States Senator, and is one of the Professors of our L'ni-versity. He firmly opposed secession and showed at ail times his attachment and devotion to the Union but when the war broke out he did not hesitate to partakeof the destiny of the South, and was true to her cause and interests. If we have an orator in the highest sense of eloquence the lofty, the impassioned, not being among us common qnalities it is he. No lawyer ever advanced greater claims to the personal confidence and respect of the bar. He possesses great depth of voice, speaks with fluency, and displays a confidence both of assertion and tone which seldom fails to take his hearers' judgments captive.

Mr. Hnnt is distin guished for a most honorable character in private life, mod-eratefopinions in politics, extensive information upon all subjects in his profession, and talents of a high order He a great constitutional lawyer. The efforts of hia gonitis combine with majestic declamation the deepest pathos, the moat lively imagination and the closest reasoning. When addressing a jury his strength-lies in the lofty appeals he makes to the nobler qualities of the heart and in his withering scorn of the sordid and base. Mr.

Hunt is generally admired not. only for his high talents, but loved for his generous, charitable, magnanimous and social disposition, frank and direct, with no mean inalitiea or littleness of mind. Hon. milks tayixr. This gentleman, who is one of the best civil lawyer in this State, was born in New York about sixty years ago.

He is small of stature, gray haired, fair com-plexioned and bright eyed. "When unite young he came to State and devoted bin attention to th xtuily of the law. liw passed an excellent eummatiou before the Snproiu--t jiirt. obtu.m-d his license to practice. Aa Mx.

Ha is certainly a jrerjticmaaja of vast tnlenfay prrrfawinilly read in law, and trained" to grapple closely with every question.

He is dia-tdnguisbed for graee and ease of manner, and for happy and polished artilnwa. He exerts great intluenee on. the wills in affections of those who know him. He is a good speaker, clear and correct and diction. Endowed by nature with a quick and vigorons understanding, his arguments are vivid, and he shows in all the eases intrusted to him, honesty of purpose, earnestness and faithfulness.

Even at his advanced age he is most diligent and attentive to business. Mr. Taylor has represented Louisiana in the Congress of the United States when that body contained the most brilliant array of ability ever seen in any deliberative assembly. He there distinguished himself as a debater, achieved a high position, and stood on the same plane as the most prominent, statesmen who adorned the halls of the National JUDB THOU. WHARTON COU.ENS.

Hon. Thoa. Wharton Collens, who presides over the Seventh District Court for the parish of Orleans, is a gentleman of unimpeachable integrity and a Judge of great capacity and learning. He was born in Covington. and is about 59 years old.

He waa educated in this city, and has bees 33 years at the liar, discharging, at different periods, the offices of District Attorney and Judge of the criminal court with great ability, lie is acquainted with the ancient and modern languages, and has written several philosophical works, which have been highly praised by the best critics. In order that the kind reader (all readers are kind by courtesy, just as members of the Louisiana Legislature are ail honorable) may see Judge Wharton Collens in the mind's eye. a brief outline of his onter man is necessary. In person he is slight and of the middle size. His face is pale, but often kindles up with the light tad brilliancy of his dark eye.

He has regular features, and iron-gray hair and beard. With fibres and nerves delicately toned, and not enjoying good health, his nervous system is sometimes irritable. Judge Wharton Collens has a metaphysical turn of mind. Like all men of such bent, he ia a stickler for technicalities. If he ware a soldier he would be a martinet.

His style is that of the severest reasoning. The language ia choice, perfectly clear, and admirably suited to the matter which the words clothe. His decisions are based upon clear and rational grounds, evincing learning and showing a legal structure of understanding, felicitous statement and profound knowledge. Over the Seventh District Court he has presided for several years, and his administration of its functions has shed a lustre alike upon that tribunal and the Judge. I may say without fear of contradiction, that a long time will elapse before there shall arise in this State such another legal luminary, to illumine the bench, as the worthy gentleman I have briefly por-tras'ed.

ROBERT MOOT. My friend, Mr. Mott. must have seen about fifty-seven summers aye. and a like number of winters.

He ia a uative of Baltimore, MiL. of fair complexion, classical features and of commanding appearance. He is open and above everything like dissimulation, warmly affectionate and steadfast in friendship. As a lawyer, the clearness of his statement presents at once a picture to the mind. In his arguments he appeals forcibly to strict reason, and hia tone, though deferential and eonrtly.

is manly. He indulges very sparingly in declamation. He is one of the best civil, commercial and chancery lawyers ir this State, with an uncommon capacity for effective and untiring industry. His legal studies have been comprehensive. He writes with great, facility and cleverness, exhibiting philosophical research and ma turity of judgment.

Several years aeo. he served an a mem ber in the State Legislature of Louisiana with much ability. After our late war. te went to Europe and visited the prin cipal cities of the Old 'World. Mr.

Mott is now in the full vigor of all nis faculties, active in his movements and in turning oft" business with aa much ease as when he entered public life thirty years He is kindly in his dispositions, so as to devote some of his time and resources to making others happy domestic and atTectiouate in his habits, and religious without intolerance lie is a cautions and. safe counselor, a dilitrcnt man of businecu. punctual to his appointments, regular in the distribution of his time, never suffering pleasure or distraction of any kind to interfere with his duties. W. M.

RAXnOI-PH. No lawyer in this or any State more fully commands the respect and confi dence of the members of the bar. and the pnblic. than Judge W. M.

Randolph. He is a native of Virginia, about fifty years old. and a near relative of the great defender of States ri ghta, John Randolph, of Roanoke. a. teamed and.

an upright man, no worldly considerations can turn him from the strict path of houor anil duty He ia amiable, courteous, gentlemanly and cnivairous. Descended from a noble line, he com manded from his birth all that wealth and family influence could give, with the best opportunities for education. In his youth he resided in one of the monutain districts of Virginia, and his constant application to the study of the law impaired seriously his health. His grandmo tbcr. who was devotedly at tached to him, requested him to take horse and travel, for exercise anil recreation, in the neighborhood of the place where they resided.

Randolph, who was an excellent rider. did as be-was inrrtrncfed. A few miles from his residence there was a circus. with an excellent eqnestrian company. He joined them, and, af t-r travelin with them seven days, returned home much improved in health.

Upon be in asked wlut be lul doue rltinug nis ab sence, he frankly stated the trut.it. eratiri mother, who was an artiscoTrr.tM lady and a strict Prtsiiy triiin, tul2-HKi oiling ti.u.. ilou ui jr. Lbaii eLu hat ui. It has been said that to genius irregu larity is inwislent, and great men are often marked by eccentricity, as if they disdained to move in the vulgar orbit.

Judge Randolph does not seem to pay much attention to appearances. His flowing Beard resembles that of a Capuchin- friar, and his hair, uncommonly long, bangs down over his coat collar after the old cavalier fashion. He is tall and well formed, his eaturee are regular and hia eyes gray and bril liant. His familiarity with the principles of jurisprudence is ample as his application of them is masterly. He great intensity and direetn ni of purpose and meets difficulties boldly.

Accomplished as a scholar, he ia unhesitating in his conduct, although polite in his demeanor. His powers as an advocate are great. He is one of our best speakers. He has a re fined classical wit and loves harmless pleasantry. Unlike his great relative.

Make marriage a matter of moral judgment. Marry in your own religion. Marry in your own blood and temperament from your own. i Marry into a family which you have long known. Never talk at one another, either a lone, or in company.

Never both manifest anger at once. Never speak loud to one another unless the house is on fire. Never reflect on the past action, which was done with a good motive and with the best judgment at that time. Let each strive toyield oftenest to the wishes of the other. Let self-abnegation be the daily aim and effort of each.

The very nearest approach to domestic felicity on earth is the mutual cultiva-tieTn of aiieolnte unselfishness. Never find fault, unless it ia perfectly certain that a fault has been committed and even then prelude it with a kiss, am lovingly. Never taunt with a past mistake. Neglect the whole world beside, rather than one another. Never allow a request to be repeated.
