No occupation can be more agreeable to the studentt than tracing the rise and progress of those subjects, which have claimed his time and attention. The inquisitive character of the human mind does not permit him to rest satisfied with the results merely, of science or of art, but leads him to seek the causes of these results, and the chain of circumstances connected with their developement. The admirer of the beauties of Shakspeare, finds his delight increased, if any reminiscence can be discovered, throwing the least light on the subject or composition of a single play; and a new interest invests the recovery of a simple relict, illustrative of the character or habits of theB ard of A von. The origmal copy-right of Paradise Lost was with difficulty sold for a few shillings, while the Antiquarian now readily gives a hundred pounds for the manuscript of theB lind Poet With what increased pleasure do we take up the works of Sir Walter Scott, after reading the interesting biography of Lockhart? Each novel attracts a new feeling, each character a new interest, and we recommence their perusal with a relish never before experienced.
