Speciatl Correspondence of The Chicago Tribune. Loxpoy, Eng. Feb. 25—The literary world is agitated by the near approach of important events. This week will see the publication of Mr.Carlyle’s **Reminiscences.” Zan undertaking distinet from the ** Life,” which Mr. Froude is also preparing. Rich- ard Herne Shepherd has also a biography of the great old man at the point of completion. There are rumors of a forthcoming sequel to “ Endymion,” some portions of which are already in print. After this, we are told, Lord Beaconsfield will write no more. Mr. Cross, husband of the late ** Georze Eliot,” is collecting material for a life of the fanious novelist. Another volume of the ** Letters of Charles Dickens™ may be expected short- 1y. Anda MS. volume of poems by Shelley, that has been preserved at Cothelstone, will, in all likelihood, soon take its place on the .publisber’s book-shelf. The interest aroused by the “anuounce- . ment that the eminent historian has under- 7 taken the onerous duty of writing A LIFE OF CARLYLE is widespread. The Sage of Chelsea gave the task into his ‘hands before death had sepa- rated the two associates in letters. For a Jong time Carlyle would not vield to the re- quest that Mr. Froude be allowed toact as his biographer. 1le wanted no biograph he said, Nor did he. But, when it was pointed out to him that, immediately the great shadow fell npon him, dozens of so- called * Lives —two portions imagination and one portion inaccuracies—would issue {from the noisome places of Grub street, he consented; if any record of his life, more than that contained in his books, was to be written, it might as well be accurate. The publication of this extended and complete ‘biography is reserved till afuture period, for the tabor is a herculean one. The* Remi- niscences,” to appear this week, is of course 2 distinet work, and_includes the frazments of autobiography left by the deceased author. Much of what Carlyle had written about his father and his wife was evid ently ot intended for puablication, and Mr. Froude, who issues the volumes to the Wworld, has had to exercise hi: diseretion wvery freely in regard to the mass of manu- seript committed to his cure. THE PRESIDENCY OF THE LONDON LIBRARY, rendered vacant by Carlyle’s death, it is proposed to confer on the nard-worked Prime-Minister. I can scarcely see what at- traction such a post can have for Mr. Glad- stone, whose hands are too full of otber mat- 1ers to permit of his taking more than a pass- ing interest in literature; and [ am not sur- prised to hear that a_section of the members are getting up a req uisition to another prom- nent man to become their President. ‘The Prime-Minister has not been consulted in the matter; but it is safe_to say that, if he aceepts the honor, it will only be at the upanimous wish of the members of the Li- brary. To a literary man the post is notan undesirable one. Mr. Carlyle utilized it to 1hie utmost, frequently borrowing from the 1ibrary as mauy as a~ hyndred Dooks at a time. GOSSIP CONCERNING LORD BEACONSFIELD’S NEW NOVEL . js of the usual entertaining sort. Iam told by one who professes to Know—whether he does or not is another question—that his Tordship has completed two volumes of the stors. ‘The author receives the proofs of one chapter while he writes the succeeding one,—certainly a very pretty way of book- makKing. In this he emulates the genius of Sheridan. who finished the comedy of “The Pivals” while the actors were going through the play on the stage. As a literary work, “Endymion” was a failure; but 1t has proved a splendid success financially. No wonder, then, that its noble author should be busying himself with a continuation of that sumewhat remarkable autobiography. Tt is difficult to imagine what further good Jord Beaconsfiedd has in store - for his hero, for he already possessed all that mortal could wish for. Probably the interest of the work will not centre in that worthy’s future career, but in the later political events to which it will in- troduce us, Endymion was & YOURg man in the days of the Corn-law agi is no reason why his political® existence should not be brouzht down to ‘the last Parliament. Whew! if itis, won’t there he some fluttering in _the dovecotes at St Stephen’s. Labouchére tells A NEW STORY OF THE EX-PREMIER. No one more_thoroughly understands the charm of indirect compliments than Lord £i 21 Beaconsfizld, and the story, if apochryphal, is cha stie. ‘The otlier day, it isaileged, e obse to a friénd that he owed the best passagze in ** Endymion” to i conversation that he had had with nim. Elated at this, the friend inadvertently mentioned the in- teresting fact at his club. * That can hardly e, one of those who heard him, * for 1ord Beaconsfield told me only yesterday hat hie owed the best passage in his novel to me” The next time’ the clated friend met Tord Beaconsfield, he threw out that the compliment had lost its savor sinee he had learned that it had also been. ade_to another. * My dear friend,” replied his Lordship, hat you say is trues but observe what a difference there is be- {ween —- and A man ot your acute percep- tions. lic was deceived,—vou are not.” GEORGE ELIOT’S WILL has been published. I have not a copy of its contents by me. but the personalty wis sworn at about S500,000, I believe. To im- agine that the gifted anthoress of *Adam Bede” and * Middlemarch” accumulated such a sum even from the sale of her books —albeit, the success of her novels was henonienal, and the profits on them very arge, as literary profits go—is a mistake. rs. Cross inherited considerable property Trom her mother. There has been some sur- %rise that nothinz was _ left in the will to Mr. ross, he not bemg named among those who derived under it. Evervthing appeared to be left to we Lewes fainily. The explana- tion is now given mall by the express dusire of Mr. Cross, who is himself well off, such an arrangement was entered into previous 1o the marriaze, The unhappy Transvaal war can claim at Jeast the merit of introducing us toa new special correspondent of the first rank, Tawmely: MR. CAMERON, OF THE “STANDARD.” 2Mr. Cameron, who is quite a young man, first saw real warin thelater stages of the Afghan trouble. Like most brilliant journalists, he 00k to newspaper-writing not by aceident, or because he was destined for the profession by a fond parent, but because of a stronx natural bent for the work. 1lis contributious to a Calcutta paper—he having spent his early vears in India—atiracted the notice of 1he editor, and, the Afghan war being then at its hight, he was asked to go to the front, —an engagement which furnished him with Just the opportunity he wanted. The Standard indeed 's the marvel of London journalism. It has fairly crowded he Timnes out of the race. By moderating its politics, and attempting thereby to be all things to all men, it has beaten the miscalled # feadlng paper’ (dubbed the other day the Bchind the Times) with its own weapons; and its foreigu special correspundence is the Fullest and most timely that the wires brine Into the great city. It has lately taken to ublishing . official documents before they ave been laid before Parliament, much to the satisfaction of the public and the chagrin of the legislators. : ME.

Mr. Alexander Wilson, long associated with the Times, has Dbeen invited to jein the staff, and he will in ]t‘\:.l‘:xée be responsible for its commercial Men: We are expecting a revival of the wson-Labouchere libel case next month. The interesting family who own the Duily Telegraph have neyver forgiven the editor of Truth for his audacious and sting- ing criticism, and are apparently determined, if they can do nothing more, 10 involve him in heavy legal expenses. But law is a two- edeed weapon, and few persous know better how to handle it than Mr. Labouchére. A NUMBER OF THEATRICAL NOVELTIES are in anticipanon. Mr. Wills has written a new piay, in blank verse, ona Spanish sub- ject, under the title of **Juanita,” in which the peerless Modjeska is to appear at the Court, Theatre, where she is now imper: sonating Adrienne Lecouvrenr, which wiil _be followed by a revival of * Camille,”’—or “ileartsease” as Mr. Mortimer calls his adaptation.

Mr. Coghlan plays the part with great apprecintion, and gives, as he Is so well able to do, a splendid picture of an American gentleman, instead of the vulgar caricature of st: re-traditions. For this, we, as Americans, owe himn our thanks. Ilowever much opinions may differ as to Mr. Edwin Booth’s real position as a tragedi- an, there is no one, I think, who will hear, except with feelings of satisfaction, of his signal triumph on this side as . “KING LEAR”" agreed that his embodiment of the the latter acts particularly, shows a power of realization which has not been within the experience of moder pla{- goers. 1t was this character which 1made the reputation of his father, rugged old Junius Brutus, when, at the early age of 22, e first played London Is as character, in the part at Covent Garden Under dute of April, 1820, ITazlitt writes <We have seen Mr. Bootit’s Lear with great pleasure. Mr. Kean’s, so we anticipate, is a greater pleasure to come.” The critic has, however, left it on record that this expecta tion was very col erably disappointed ; and he zoes on, in his brilliant manner, throwzh several pages, descanting on the grandeur of thecharucter,and markinginscene after scene the * deficiency and desultoriness” of inter- est excited by Edmund Kean’s performince. This sounds like unqualified testimony from an unwilling witness to the superiority. of Booth’s L At anyrate, as has been point- ed out_ before, this entirely disposes of the wbsurd question, as the elder Bootl’s pe formance came first in_order of time, took place when he was youns, and when Kean was in the full maturity of his powers. 1 was talking with the veteran playwright, MR. E. S. BLANCILARD, the other evening, with respect to the imper- sonution at the Princess’. His opinion is worth more, perhaps, than_any other critic’s in England.* Mr. Edwin Booth,” said he to me, ** has eviaently inherited all his father’s capabilities. and developed them witha jude- went eutirely his own. His concention of Lear isthroughout well-studied. And in the last two acts the tragedian obtains a com- mand over his audicnce which is the most ncing proof of the actor’s combiete pos- session of the resources of his art”” 1 re- gret to add that Mrg, Booth’s support is un- worthy the theatre and the occasion. SCHUBERT’S THIRD PHONY was performed at the last ** Saturday Con- cert ” at the Crystal Palace, for the first time notonly in_this country, but in the annals of mu Poor Schubert, comuvoser of more music than any other man that ever lived, mav we not give him our ‘m_v now, who, when just turned 30, died as he had lived, in abject poverty, unrecognized, and unappre- ciated. Since his death the’ acknowledge- ment of his_greatness has been tardy, but complete. ty-four years have been al- Iowed to elapse, and now we hear for the firs time this gluriunssymplmn?'. “That it does not still lie voiceless on a. shelf, is due to the enthusiasm and energy of Mr. George Grove, like a knight-errant. has ed Vienna, and won, single-handed, priceless relics from thedurance vile in wi they were held.” Well is it that he who while living was_so poor that often he was unable to write becausé he could not buy paper, has found such a champion.

In the case of the Union Mutual-Life Insur- ance Company against the University of Chi- cago and others, 2n amended bill was filed late yesterday afternoon by the complainant. The Company sets‘out that on the 1th of February it filed its original biil agafvst the University and Trustees, nsking for a foreclosure of the £130.060 trust-decd on the institution. ‘The same day the bill was filed au infor- mation wos filed in the Circuit Court by the State's Attorney acainst tne Insurance Com- pauy and the Regents of the University for the purpuse of seiting aside 1his trust-deed, but service was bud on the defendants in the forcclosure suit befors it was obtained on the defendunts in the information. Asa matter of fact, the summons in the former casc was served by the Marshal about 10 o’clock the morning of the 19th of February, while the process in the latter was not served by the She 17 until about 2 o'clock in the afternoon of the same dny, and then the service was not made on the proper agent of the Compuny, R. B. Kendall, but was mude on_one A.G. Fowler. The Cor pany clnims that by reason of the prior service of process in the forcclosure suit the Federal Court hus acquired jurisdiction of both the ver- sons and subject mutter, and that if the Circuit Court shoull go on and decide the sume con- troversy there would be an luevitable contlict between the two Courts. On the 25th of February Stepben A. and Robert M. Douglas filed a cross-bill in the Circuit Court asking to huve n deeree in thelr favor, decluring the original trust to Burroughs violated and ay an end, and decreeing to them tne university property. They and the Regents of the Univer- ity, 18 is cluimed, intend to proceed with the tion in the State Courts. The Compuny s that the University or the Douglas heirs have any right to the” relief claimed by them, and it nsks that N. K. Fairbunk, the President. and O. W. Barrett, the Sceretary, of the Bourd of ‘Trustees of the University, and_L. D. Boone, S. 8. Boone. L. L. Mills, Carter H. Harrison, 1. N. ‘Arnold, and Stephen A. and Robert M. Douglas may be made defendants to the forcclosure bill, and that an injunction may be cd restraining them nnd their agenis and ustorneys from taklng any further siens in the cuse in the State Circuit Court, either on tho original informuation or the cross-bill of the Douglas heirs. e ——— . A Fatgl Wrestling Match, RICHMOND, Va., March 9.—An impromptu, but terrible, wrestiing match, which threatened to result fatully to onc of the partics, bus just oc- curred. Two colored stulwart employ¢s of an ice-cream factors, named Tom Fugun 2nd Bob White, both of them brawny, muscular men, chullengdd each other to wrestle. Without fur- ther words they grappled, and in a very short titne Fugan proved his superivrity by giving his opponent three successive falls. "White re- turned to his duties considerably erestfullen by his defent, and Fagun continued at his work in the factory. Later in the day, however, White returned to the scene of his morning’s 'overthrow, and ex- ressing himself not yet satisfed, bantered Paynin for another wrestio, and offered to bet o cmnll sum that be could throw him. Fusgan, tlushed with his former success, accepted the challenge, and went into the contest fully con- fident that he would aguin come out the Victor, but fate had decreed otherwise. White, burn- ing with the disgrace of bis previous failure, put torth his best efforts, and after & brief but desperate struggle succeeded in giving Fagan the {all, throwing bim with such force that, striking bis head. Fugan became insensible, and in 1 moment blood began to ooze. from bis cars, Tho vtker cmployés, who had witnessed the con- test, at once reported the ease, and a doctor was sent for to attend to the injured man.
