At an age at which many are satified to to begin to taste the rewards of their labors and genius, with his hand still on the pen that has so nobly testified alike to 111s cre- ative power and his marvellous industry, in the height of his renown as the most popu- lar writer of fiction of modern days, and without showing the least Sign of exhaustion or decay, Charles Dickens has passed away. On Thursday evening an attack of paralysis terminated his life, which had lasted barely 58 years. From the time of the first appearance of the Skrfchcs by 1302, in the year 1836â€"7, down to the issue of his nnconcluded story, Eiwin Drood, Mr. Dickens has. by his books, been a. constant and ever-welcome guest in the 1101 es of his countrymen. His fame and popu'urity have been as great in the New as in the Old World, and Where- ever the English language is spoken, his creations are recognized as familiar friends, reflecting in their sorrow, their humors, tleir quaint eccentricities, their follies. or their noblcr qualities of the broadest and most diversified, but at the same time, most human experience. Mr. Dickens’ first start in life was as clerk in an attorneys oifice, and there he picked up enough of the dry formulas of English legal practice to point many a home-thrust at the profession during his subsequent career as an author. His mind, however, soon overleaped the narrow bounds of his first profession. and an opening upon the reporting staff of the Morning Chronicle gave him the first chance of displaying his literary talents to the world. His Sketches by Boz led to an invitation from the firm of Chapman & Hall to write a serial story to be issued monthly. The result was The Pickwick Papers. The genial humor and powerful delineations of human character which distinguished this work, raised the un- l known author at one bound, and at the age of twenty-five to a place in the front rank of living novelists. The sale was enormous, and B02 was announced in 1838 to be Char- les Dickens. Having thus established an imperishablc record as a humorist. Mr. Dickens was next to prove that he could worthilv act the part of a social reformer. Oliver Twist and Nicholas Nickleby, the first exposing many of the hardships and suffer- ing of the pauper class, and the latter only too truthfully portraying many of the abuses to which the less favoured pupils of cheap private schools were often subjected, stimu- lated a spirit of enquiry that has led, during the past thirty years, to the most thoroughly practical results. They exhibited a habit of observation and analysis of the darker as well as the lighter and more humorous phases of characters which proved Mr.Dick- ens to be something beyond a genial carica- turist, and as capable of delineating the depth of Fagin’s iniquity, or the selfish bru- tality and malice of Squeera, as w 'l as the shrewd common sense of Sam Weller, or the good-natured, blundering, unworldliness of Mr. Pickwick. 0" er Twist was not want- ing in the purest a* d most natural pathos; but this characte istic in Mr. Dickens’ de- lineations found a higher development in the story of “Little Nell” in the “01d Curiosity Shop.” In the expressiny touching story of the child’s life and death there 1' ' a touch of that real dramatic power which Charles Dickens constantly dipslayed almost, as it seemed, unconsciously to himself, so_per- which he puts them um from the stage. ‘hg'arnaby Budge ” was another of the same series which, under the general title of "Master Humphrey’s Clock” appeared at this time. After compiling Grimaldi’s memoirs Mr. Dickens visited the United States, and on returning in 1842 published his wellknown “American Notes.” With the faculty of the caricaturist so strong upon him, and with the must abundant materials for his too ready pen, the Notes brought out into strong, and, as has sometimes been alleged, too unfavorable a light, the weaker and less amiable characteristics of American society. But Dickc1s himsle lived to receive from the very people he had thus mercilessly ridi- culed a welcome that told how highly the man and the author was appreciated, not- withstanding old grudges. Probably the fact was that the superstructure of the criticism was sound, and that Dickens fell only into the common error of the painter in giving occasionally a little too free play to his im- agination. In his next work, “ Martin Chuzzlewit,” such inimitable creations as Peeksniff and Sairy Gamp, were added to his collection of faithful photographs. Pans-v inf,r for a while in his career as anthor,_l\lr. Dickens assumed the position of Editor of a newspaper, and the London Dai ' News was started under his auspices in 1846. But the dry plodding labors of the desk were altogether uncongcnial to Mr. Dickens. He had surrounded himself with a stat? of able colleagues and conducted the paper on broadly Liberal principles. The time, how-- ever, was very unfavorable for such an exs pcriment, the cost of the effort was enormou and the pecuniary result for some years very discouraging. Mr. Dickens did not wait 1;? see the Daily News safely through its carll' er struggles. He quitted his post as Editor at the end of a few months, and retired to his old and well-loved avocation, ” Dombey & Son” being given to the world in the following year. , With marvellous versatility he produced David Copperfield in 1811:9-50. As a tale, Copperfield is, perl ups, upon the whole the best of his productions. iris own career aided him in giving life-like reality to its sketches, and a mature experience had, by the time it was written, chastened his style and broadened the author's human knowledge and sympathies. Poor Emily’s story is handled with a. degree of delicacy and tact that conceals all the grosscr fea- tures of her fall, without abaiting one jet of the guilt of her scducer, Steerforth, while the noble and manly characters of Ham and and Old Peggoty, the undercurrent of ten- derness in Coppefield’s stern and uncom- promising aunt, the innocent whimsicalities of Mr. Dick, the calm dignity of the highâ€" sonled, but simple-minded Doctor, the cringing servility of Uriah Heep, the childâ€" ish love of little Dora, the faithful devotion of Agnes, and, above all, the half rea" half- acted part of the immortal Micawber, make up a group of sketches that would have established for ever the fame of the artist, even if the works that had preceded “ Cop- perfield ” had been still unwritten. A Bleak House in 1853, with its scathing exposure of the cruel delays and extortions of Chancery Practiceâ€"Little Dorrit in 1856, “ A Tale of two Cities,” “The Uncommer- cial Traveller,” and “ Great Expectations” were added 1.0 the list of Mr. Dickens’ library of fiction soon afterwards. As the proprietor of a weekly serial, first Houseâ€" hold Words, and then All the Year Round, Mr. Dickens had scope for his abilities in a somewhat different field; but “ Our Mutual Friend” and other emanations from his fer- tile brain have shown that his new evocation did not circumscribe the range of his lite- rary powers. In thus glancing at some of the deceased author’s higher achievements, his minor works need not be forgotten, although our space must limit our reference to them at ‘the moment. Amongst these his Christâ€"- mas stories were always looked for as afford- ing a special fund of delight and enjoyment. THE YORK HERALD, RICHMOND HILL, ONT, FRIDAY, JUNE 17.1870.

Our corrcs’ pondent comments rather severely on the professional gentleman upon whose ad- vice the suit against the mail carrier was commenced, and might subject us and himself to the further annoyance of hav- ‘ing to defend in another kind of suit if ‘we published the letter. As to the sugâ€"; l gestion that Mr. Raymond should be ‘ “ compelled to carry Her Majesty’s mail,” we imagine our correspondent cannot be serious, as that would be simply absurd. We think, however, that if the matter was properly brought under the notice of Mr. Dewe, the active and oblig- ing P. O. Inspector of the district, ar- rangements could be made that would obviate the difficulty. We suggest that Mr. Dewe’s attention he called to the matter without delay, and that a contract be given out by tender to carry the mail from the first of July, the date when the Post Office quarter commences. 9.3- HAND ImORGE : , E.

It is a very silly production, and worthy of the source from which it originated. We do not think it im- proves the ease to which our remarks of last week have drawn so much attention. Our correspondent does not claim that he had a good cause of action, nor does he say a word for the legal gentleman who advised the plaintiff in the suit !â€" Both points are worthy of note. We [leave it in the hands of our intelligent readers. Wedegret that anything should trans- pire to mar the harmony which has ex- isted, for so many years, between the Chief Superintendent of Education and the political party with which he has been so long identified. At all times of political crises, Dr. Ryerson has man- fullv put himself in the front ranks, to do battle with opponents of the party now in power at Ottawa. He won his spurs as a political writer, when Sir Charles Metcalfe quarrelled with the Baldwinâ€"Lafontaine Reformers; has fought George Brown and D’Arcy McGee single handedâ€"and whipped them too! He has tried a fall or two with the late Joseph Humeâ€"the Radical Goliah of the British House of Commonsâ€"and- showed what Canadian pluck could do. Having rendered such good service to Sir John A. Macdonald’s party; in years past, we regret that anything should have happened to cause so staunch a champion of conservatism, to take of- fence at Sir John A.’s colleague. We ’ do not think that any offence was intended. by Sir George E. Cartier; and if not intended, we trust the Rev. Dr. will not permit himself to be dragged into the clear grit ranks in his decline of life, after having done such good service to the conservative party during the past thirty years.

THAT LAW SUIT. ., JUNE 17, 1870. Ever since the Hon. John Carling accepted oflice in the Ontario Govern- ment, he has been untiring in his efl‘orts to encourage a healthy emigration to this Province. He sent Mr. Thomas White as a special commissioner to the British Islands, with a view to induce intending emigrants to steer their course for On- tario, and make their home here; Mr. Carling has done all that was possible to to induce the members of Municipal Councils to second him in his efforts to make things smooth for strangers coming to our shores; he has pointed outâ€"by printed circulars frequently sent . Municipal officersâ€"that it would be of 1 great service-if they would second the : efforts of the government, by sending re- ' plies to the questions put in the printed ' papers forwarded to them. It is to be regretted that only one-third of the Town- ship Councils have paid attention to Mr. Carling’s circular, the rest have acted in a manner to lead us to imagine they do not care to see emigrants coming among us. We regret that such indifference is maniâ€" fested by our representative men ; as they certainly must know that for years the cry has been, “ why is it that our Go- vernment will, do nothing to create a flow of emigrants into our country ‘2” Now, we have a government ready and willing to do all that can be expected of them, and are doing so; yet two-thirds of the , local representatives of the people decline ' to second the efforts so made. We want ; skilled and unskilled laborers, and now that harvest is approaching, fiarmers will i have reason to censure the neglect of ? Municipal Councillors who. have mani- , fested such indifi‘erenec to the appeals of ; the Commissioner of Agriculture in the _~ matter of emigration. It is a fact that labouring men, who can handle the spade, ; are asking and get constant employment - in and about Richmond Hill at one dol- f lar a day, and board ; strong, able-bodied laboring men, who are not afraid of work, will find employment readily in the coun- try. They should not remain about towns and cities. We do hope our pub- - lic men will stir themselves, and do all in their power to second Mr. Carling in his t endeavors to smooth the emigrant’s path.

WHO has not suffered from corns, bunions, club or inverted ’nails, enlarged and dis eased joints, chilblains, frosted feet, &c.? Who has not yet been willing to make any sacrifice, and incur any expense to effect their cure; but as years rolled on and no re- lief came, the sufferer has concluded they were inevitable evils, and has endured mar- tyrdom from the apparently simple causes which have tormented more people than any other ailment of the human frame! There is nOne that entail agonies so great or suffering more severe. We are glad to know that corns will soon be numbered among the things of the past, owing to the skill of Dr. Briggs, the far famed Chiropo- dist, whose success in treating diseases of the feet almost surpasses belief. His method involves no pain, no drawing of blood, and no application to the foot, but the result is, the patient is efl‘ectually relieved, in such a manner as to excite both wonder and grati- tude.

Simâ€"It is generally conceded now-a-days that the press is the palladium on which to place all our wrongs for adjudication. It is ‘ also supposed that Editors are capable of information on any subject within the four corners of the earth. I wish you would let me know if it is lawful for the most abomi~ nable of rowdles to insult people who are honestly struggling to make a decent living, as they quietly pass up and down the streets ‘of one of our most enterprising villages. If ‘men who pay for what they eat and drink, and what they put on, are to be abused by detestable ruffians, who stand at the street corners with their sleeves rolled up to show that they can afford to wear a guernsey shirt, and others who cover their nakedness with something like a white shirt to atone for the want of a decent coat. If men who reverence the name of their Creator are to be blackguarded by blokes Who cannot utter three words without profaning the name of Him who will not hold guiltless those who take His holy name in valn.
