vYEIiKKSDAY MOENINO JAN. 4, lewt. ] Seanetblng More Abent Writing. We closed onr notlceof Blnclwood's article j npon prise writers yesterday sooner than we feajaf intended when we commeiu'ed It. It wns j so suggestive that it led us into a great many J desultory reflections, part of wbich are put I down, and tbe rest left ont. If we Have been j correctly understood, our remarks convey the . Idea that practice is as essential to the greatest ; genius, and the largest amount of acqui.ement, j as it is to any scribbler ihat lives by peu and i ink We are aware that a different opinion is . prevalent, but we are convinced that tho«e , who have themselves written much will all j agree with us in opinion. A workman must j learn to handle his tools, let his mechanical i ingenuity be what it may. In the beginning,; the sculptor may have ibe idea, but uutil be becomes accustomed to the process which J brings life cut of the rugged marble, be cannot ' succeed to the extent of the impulse which is ; within bim. So it i* with the writer. His aunt efforts are always crude nnd imitative; and ahja is the case alike with the greatest genius j and the most abject "pretender—with Siiaks- ; raaasaud Por Emmobh; with bun who wrote ; tbe soltloqny of Hamlkt, nnd him who indited ! that notable panegyric beginning— "Oh ! riimpsj,'liuiii>s>. Colonel Johnson Bil.od Tecumseh. We are well aware that Dr. JwaTwaa*. in ' his preface to his edition of SnaJUraAßa*B j plays, expressed an opinion, the opposite to that which we are now endeavoring to in culcate. He believed, or affected to believe, I that suAK-iPBABE, owing everything to na ture, wrote a» well when he llr.-t began to •write, as he ever did afterwards, bseaußss na ture was as strong la bim in the beginning as it ever was afterwards. Nothing,it strike. us, can be more erroneous than the general idea, or its particular application to Banes- BBJtia In no author of whom v.c know t anything is it easier to trace the progress of improvement. Take his earlier comedic - thoae which from the ascertained dates w<- ; know to have beeu bis earliest productions - take the Two Gentlemen of Verona, for in- ! stance, -ami we see every mark of a great but immature geniu-. Uis style is ball tormed, I in a great measure, upon the writings of his predecessors—qnibbles, plays ut'ou words, and frigid conceits al'ouml beyond measare— kits characters are imperfectly developed: that is,considering it is Siiakspkauk who draws ; them—bis fancy is lively enough, but never reaches that higher region in which it locs tbe name of fancy and takes that of imagina tion—his invention is narrow-and be maul- ' fests none of th it energy and psaston which ; subsequently, nnd to this day, distinguish ] bim from all other writers that ever lived.— Following the chronology of his plays, it appears to us that he llrst begins to manifest Ban superior creative powers of but mind in his historical dramas. When we come to Ii"- j vko* and Jt i.ikt, tbe Mid-uinmer's Night ' Bream, the Merchant of Venice, ,Vc, we fee! ; that we are readii.g the productions ~.f a great : poet; of a man inventive powers are ! unbounded, whose imagination Is equal to tbe lofttsst flights, who has already done more than anybody else, but who has not even yet j let the world know the half oi'what be can BBS. The same characteristics, mellowed bj longer contemplation, and c. riper experi ence of men and thing-, de.iight v- in Ihe ! "Twelfth Night" and "As You Like It '- , One step farther and we meet with the comic side off his genius la mature purfection revel- ' ling in wit, rolling iv hum or, ami throwing ; about thei-H ostiy materials, to us.- tbe ex- ; pression ol To.M MooiiK, ai v savage might ! do diainoi.da and psarlfl of whose value lie j waa entirely ignorant. Never was there sucb I a profusion of comedy as is to be found in ! liKßitr IV. and the Merry Wives of Wind or. j But the genius of the author culminates only ' in his four uiirivulled tragedies, Lkak, ELabt- ' let, Otiikll.), aad Kacbbth. There always has been, and there always will be, a dispute j as to which is the greater production of these four. Each one has in turn been advocated With a zeal verging npon open war. Talon { together, they constitute the greatest product j ol the human imelhct. If piiie ice was ne- ! gSBBMkry for tlie most comprehensive mind that ever existed to bring its vast powers toper- ] lection, sureiy it cannot be of novalu . to any j iniiiil of an inferior order. If anybody could have been supposed ;o i have brought to the aceomplishmeat off a lite- ! rary undertaking everything thai coaid su- : percede the necessity off previous practice composition, ii was Oianov. He bad mad, ' liimsell master of everything else thai a liisioriau eoald require In prosecuting such au undertaking, lie was master of all learn bag, ancient na well aa modern. lie was pro- ! foiuiiliy versed in liie civil code of all nations. He understood the principles off all nligioiis t and all creeds. He knew the history i<i the ; world from its foundation, aa a merchant j kaowahia day-book and ledger. Yet, when he ' came to undertake the vast enterprise for which he hail labored during tbe best part off j his life, he felt acutely that verj want which nothing but practice can supply. Thia feeling ! be expresses in the language ; '-At ; the outset," lie tells us, "all w.i> dark and doubt In!; even tbe title of the work, the true vra of the decline and fall of the empire, the Uaaits of the Introduction, the division off the ! chapters, aud tbe order oi the narrative, and I was often templed to east away the labor of , seven years. The style Off un author should • be ihe image of his mi ml, tit: the choice and command of are the fruits of txettise. Many experiments were made before 1 could bit the middle tone between a doll narrative and a rhetorical declauiaiioii; throe Isaacs did I fumposc the /;'/,sr and tuire th. seri .id and '■ third, before I was toUrab y satisfied with their rjfert. iv the remainiier off the way 1 ml- j vanced With a more equal and easy pace.'' If nil authors who bavedistiaguishod them selves would give their experience, WS have i no doubt ibey would every one tell a tale like | that of OtniioN. _ Black Republican N.iic* in theSOStth. The statement of ihe Haw York correspon deutof the Mobile Register, oa this subject, I whsch wepnhliabed yesterday, is oi a start- : ling character, yet not more so than many ex- . traorduiary incidents developed jui the last lour mouths.

Whether tbe j story be true or lali-e, however, the (Bet which j the spies are alleged to have reported la un fortuuKtely beyond dispute, viz., that the 1 South is destitute of arms (ami ammunition ! for her own defence.
