While crossing the Thames in the primitive | horse-boat.’’ at Babloc Hithe, our attention was attracted by an unusually tall man, who | was leaning, in an attitade at once careless and graceful, against the door of the ferry-house ; his smoek frock, of some grey material, was elaborately plaited and worked on the shoul- ders, and his heavy but handsome Saxon fea- tures were expressive of the most intense mel- ancholy. On the ground beside him was what looked like the foundation ef an arm-cha’ S ssed and recrossed by wicker-work. round | which various long grasses in seed and flower were twisted. every passing breeze bending their heads or rustling among their stems; the chair | was divided into three or four compartments, everarched by these grasses—hower fashion— aud we imagined we saw something moving within each recess. We inquired who the stranger was. i _ \That!”’ exclaimed the boatman, Dh, that is Tom Hirsell. the owl-finder.”” ~ Owl-finder’ What do you mean?” ~ Why. be travels the country from one end to the other, looking for owls and bats—owls especially, he catches or steals from their nests. | endStames, and then sells them to the gentry or may be to gardeners.
