He was traveling In Dumtriesshire in company with W. J. Henderson, now a prom- ment Scoteh artist, who had enla) and colored a photograph of Mrs. Carlyle in so faithful a manner that the gratefal philosopher called It a “brilliant and marvelous creation,” and urged the painter to visit him. The Cralgepputtock farm-bouse had itttle twin- plot of sward and flowers in front,” and “green grass and waving yellow grain” around, but “qway bebind and in front and around stretched dismal lengths of ,, treacherous mo: or towered the bleak an sentinel the irish sea.” “J. F.” describes the old man’s personal appearance much as others he was clothed “like a bave, and notes thal douce Seotch farmer, in a long brown coat, with large, flat, horn buttons. gray tweed pants, a thick, black scarf (ied carelessly round the neck, and, when for a few minutes be trotted round the farm, a broad-brimmed felt hat.” They had "what the Scotch call ‘a tousy tea.”” His niece, “a plain, roe sonsy and lady-lke iass,” served the tea, and Carlyle’3 brother was there, looking like him; “the fea- tures of the farmer, strange to say, being a sort of refined edition of the philosopher's.” Car- lyle was In a bright mood, “‘quizzing his niece about her sweathearts; speculating with his brother about the harvest, and chatting with Henderson apd myself abovt literature and art.” "Tom Moore, Cariyle characierlzed as a musical snuff-box, * pretty enough, but—,’ and then that Indescribable liftiog of the great shaggy eyebrows and pecutiar smile whlch all who Enew bim well will recall. Capt. Marryat be denouneed tn unsparing terms.” Of George Eliot, Carlyle spoke in terms of warm, for him almost enthusfastic, praise. In the course of the eventng Carlyle repeated a poem of E ner- son, characterized Longfellow as “that good mah,” and apropos of Longfellow and Bryant, exclaimed: “America has acted her Iliad, but bas not had time to sing It, Bryart might have been & poct,—he was ouly an editor. Iie ought to have died when he wrote ‘Thanatopsis.’” ‘This poem Carlyle recited aloud, with marked ubetion and feeling,—it was one of his favor- ites, For farewell to his young visitor, he said: “ Read Goethe, boy, read Goethe.” JAMES T. FIRLDS'S FIRST MBETING. There he stood, a strange looking, iron-gray haired map, bis cheek curtously tinged with red, like a rosy apple, while the arctic frosts were slowly setting on his head. He was io the middle of a declamatory sentence and ges tenlaling vehementiy. In bis half doubled-up fst he heid an unlsbted cigar, and his strong Scottish burr sounded oddly enough to my un- initlated ears. The entrance of a stranger drew his attention, and when Mr. Kenyon men- Ucned my hame and coupled with it the an- nouncement that I was a young American, just landed from the other ‘side, Carlyle stopped suddenly, bent his keen eyes upon me and burst out with this explosive sentence: “And £0, young feller, you're from the great country over the way yonder, are ye!

SUNDRY PERSONAL DISLIKES. It is related that when Carlyle and “George Ellot” were once at_ a Royal academy exiibi- Uon at the same time, he refused to be tntro- duced to her, saying, “I prefer ber books to herself; they have character, she has nove.” But it is added that he afterward held a juster and kinder Jedgment concerning ber. : Carlyle could- never endure Millais a3 a painter, because he was the cause of Mr. Rus- kin’s trouble with and separation from uls wife, whom Millais afterward married Every one has heard his characterization of Swinburne, after the first Poems and Ballads” came out—“He is like a man sittlog up to his neck in @ sewer. and adding to it.” When that florid rhetorician, Rev. George Gillan, of Dundee, was lecturing about Car- jyle all round the British isies, pe presented himself at the sage’s door in Cheyne walk, Chelsea. Carlyle answered the bail.” “Who are you?” he sald, in a gruff, abrupt way he had With strangers, for he took most strangers wo called upon him without an tmtrod: mere curlosity-monger3 and sight-seers. am George Gilfillan,” was the reply, “and I bave been lecturing a00ut you through the country.” “You bave—have you? Damn your impertinence—geod morning!” It is added that GUnllan did not so much as name Carlyle tor Mapy a day after, but that common friends subsequently bronght the two together, He was strenuously opposed to the attempt of bis friend Dean Stanley to putup a mon- Prince Louis Napoleon ta Westminster abbey, and it {s said that this incident coptirmed ‘Carlyle in his dislike to being buried in the abbey. “There must be a general jail delivery of ‘scoundrels now lying there before any honest man’s bones can reat peacefully inits walls,” he has been known to say. WIS RATING OF GOETHR. 1 heard a capital story of Carlyl2 at a dinner party in Berltn, silencing the cant about Gcethe’s want of religion by one of nis char- acteristic sarcasms. For some time he sat quiet, but not patient, while certain ptetisis were throwing up their eyes, and regretting that a genius: so godilke a genius! should not have more purely devoted himseif to the ser- vice of Christian truth, and should have had so fittie ete. Carlyle sat grim, ominously siient, 13 hands impatiently twisting his napkin, ulti) at last lence, and in hisslow, empbatic way sald: “Mein Herren, did you never hear the st of that man who vilifled | the sun because It would not ight his ctr i y Silenced the ener: stopped sud liar look and empha cry of amezement on the part of all epooneys that the Titan was not intellect, and ‘ot u the least His shrewiiness, espe character from small indications, was extraor- dinary.

While no decent newspapers venture to ap- prove of the assassination of the Czar, many judicious editors, refusing to allow themselves to yle‘d to an impulsive dislike of murder, have inumated that Alexander lost his life because he did not gratify the natural longings of the Nihilists by Introducing reforms in the govern- ment of Russia. This 1s certainly an impartial and unprejudiced view of the matter, and It Cught to meet with the warm approbation of people who are so constituted that they can readily approve of it. Years ago there existed in ccrtain parts of India a society bo aes known as the Society of the Thugs. These peek Lonel were the worshipers of the Goddess Kall, and they were zealously opposed to all who did not be. long to their sect. The chief occupations of the ag were murder and robbery. It was held to be the duty of every Thug to strangie asmapy people as he could manage to sately attack, and to steal their property. No Thus ever murdered another Thug, but, with this exception, the Thugs were at war with ail "mankind. ‘The British government in India, with Its characteristic hatred of treedom, disliked Thuggisin and undertook to suppress tt. ‘The measures taken were stern and oppres- sive. The Thugs were hunted down by Policemen and soldiers; when arrested they were tried like common murderers, and when convicted they were hanged. No Eng- lishman was enlightened enough tq foresee ‘that the true way to deal with Thugism was to Introduce reforms that would render the Thugs happy and contented. It was universally known that the Thugs entertained an enthusiastic yearning for the blood of every man, woman and cMlld outside of the sect, and a wild long- ing for property that did not belong to them. It seems strange to us that the British govern- ment did not recognize the right of the Thugs to entertain these pecullar longings, and did not perceive that true and just Statesmansbip required. that reforms l00k- ing to the ultimate gratification of the ‘Thugs should be undertaken. Had the govern- ernment, for example, given to the Thugs per- Mission to killa reasonable number of ple annually, and had it been made lawtul for every Ting to rob, say two persons per month, the Thugs might have recognized that there was a desire to do them justice and might have become good and faitbfu: citizens, marderiag and robbing only in accordance with ths law. Instead of so doing, the wretched Thugs had all their aspirations toward free murder and untrammeted robbery ruthlessiy crushed, and the sect was so thoroughly extirpated ‘that doubts are occasionally expressed by !!i-tn- formed persons as to the fact taat such a sect ever existe The Nihil of Rus Thugs.

They all belong to the Salix family, | Bamed from two Celtic words meaning near and water, referring to their usual habitat, In many places it might be well to plant willows On account Of their rapid growth and value for protecting banks against wasulog out in times Of flood. Some of the best species may b> mentioned in this connection. The round leaved or goat willow grows in rather dry soll and makes quite a large tree. It is an English species and highly ornamental. ‘Tne wood finds many uses in the arts.

You see, whenever a crowd gathers there are a certain amount of things lost which no- body thinks of except accidentally. I go inthe wake of crowds and gather my harvest: then I advertise for rewards, ii they are not already advertised for.” ** Do you claim to be a clairvoyant?” “Oh! by no reeans’ | just claim toown a technicalfy educated pair of eyes, just as a plan- ist has technically educated fiugers, I notice things subconsciously, you know; Dut come out with me and I will show you whatI mein.

On the stroli from Olive street to Washington avermue, Mr. Lamar again and again exhibited his finding power. The walk, however, was a water haul, as there was very little of value taken up, a silver half-dollar being the best article taken in, “This is a bad day,” said he; “I generally manage to average about $50 a week in re- wards, whitch means about $500 worth of prop- erty restored to owners.

Now it is her own handiwork, the hours of patient stitching, the choice of materials and colors, and the realiza- ton of an artistic thought, that the lady of fashion ts proud of, not, as formerly, the money that these cost. She has now a real apprecta- Uon of the beauty of her India shawl, with its seven hundred stitches to the square inch, and other features that make her treasures of old lace so valuable. The mere filling in of worsted-work Is superseded by an occupation that requires thought, knowledge, taste, and Skill; the promised slippers or sofa cushion are no longer so much to be dreaded, and even the afghan, chair back, and chauffe- pled are assuming artistic importance—things Ubat can not only"be tolerated for the sake of asscclation, but which we can consctentlously admire, and be thapkfulfor. Of course maay things are embroidered which should be per- tectiy plain, if, indeed, as tn the case of a val- ance for a mantel, they should exist at all; but this Jack of discrimination is incident to all beginnings, and we may feel certain that the enthustasin which has carried the mantel val- ance to completion will lead to a degree of ac- quirement that will acknowledge its incon- gruity, and by that tme the heat and soot of the fire will have rendered it unsightly enough to be consigned to the attic, among the useless accumulations of the past.—Harper's Magazine, ‘The hour for closing having arrived, the Limekiln Glee Club tuned up, as follows: De gentle spring am almost here, De sun am gittin’ high ; De snow am rently slidia’ out, De ice begins to fly.

He says Sage once was pestered by two nuns for a subscription to some Roman Catholic charity. To get rid of Vhera he handed over $1 very reluctantly and with every evidence of great anguisn of mind. But in less than a narter of an hour he was smiling again. for to make himself good he forced six unfortunate put-and-call brokers to give him $1 extra on their contracts. Instead of belng $1 out, he was $5 ahead, and his soal Was at peace. Russell Sage's ‘way of doing Yusiness is worth Geseribing.

When the moon 18 non est the siide On the face of the hill is lit up the whole way with lamps and Chinese lanterns, while at the summit are placed two eae oe. headlights, which throw a beau- | uful light “o'er all Use gay scene.” The spot now used by the club is just past the Priest's Farm, on Sherbrooke street, and is known as the Bond property, Mr, Charles Torrence is the President of the club, and he, with the atd ef Mr. Dawson, has dad ‘constructed an excel- lent course on the hiliside of about 500 yards, with a run on the level of 300 yards more. The unevenness of the decline has been nicely over- come by the fillirg in of the “jampy” spots with snow, 80 that the adventurous voboggan- ists are In no danger of being “bounced off when they come toa pitch.” On each side of | the track walls of snow have been raised to prevent apy accident through “green” hands oing off the toboggan in their firstrun. The focomotion up the bill after the run down fs at present slow, but wext year itis, we believe, the tention of the club to have a strong cabié and trawley, worked by a small engine on the hil, to haul up the toboggans and passengers, When this is done the sport will be more uniform than ever. Last night, though the weather was hot very propitivus for the good sport, there was a very large attendance of ladles and gentlemen, young and old.

Such even of the belles as have had their manners polished and their minds enlarged by travel In Natal and a visit to the “city” (uame- ly, Maritzburg,) seem to fling aside the embar- rassing trappings of civilization when they re- turn to the parental roof. Not that I would be understood to hint that the Boer matdens could be guilty of such an irupropriety in Is most lit- eral sense; far from it. Beneath the orange trees and blue gums of the -paternal residence the lovely ladies continue to bloom in all the brilliant hues of the most glaring red and yellow cotton dresses which Manchester can produce.

(Chicago Times ] i received recently a letter trom a geatleman in New York, who writes toask me if it isa fact that French gentlemen habitually wear Corsets, and he quotes the allusion made by Al- phonso Daudet, in the ‘Nabob,” to the white satin corsets of the male guests at the imperial fetes at Compiegne. One passage in his letter 43 so curious aud interesting that I will tran- serlbe it for the benetlt of my readers: “The Writer Was cducated in one of the best private boardirg schools at Vienna, Austria, remaining there from the age of 12 to that of 13. In com- mon With all my feliow pupils, who were sixty in number, I wore corseis during the whole of my five years’ stay al the school. I was in- formed by my teacher that Viennese gentle- men, a3 arule, wore corsets, and that the dis- cipline was naturally enforced to all their Scholars. My stays were very tightly laced, my waist, during my last year at the school, being but eighteen inches ‘In circumference, yet] never experienced a day's {Uiness, and used very much to enjoy the sensation caused by Ught lacing. When I left the school I discontin- ued ed ile Partly from the fear of being ridiculed by my friends, and partly because 1t Seemed too efleminate a custom for a young Man engaged in active business life; but I have Yetained Some interest in the matter, and I understand that many English gentlemen wear corsets, and that the practice of tight lacing among men 1s becoming Very general in Bu. Tope.” It is undoubtedly a fact that a great Muny English gentlemen wear stays, particu- larly when they ride on horseback. So general is the custom eer | that certain“ corset makers in London now advertise themselves as gentlemen's stay makers, The practice is also quite prevalent in Prussia, particularly among the Oflicers of the army. But a stiff and upright carriage 1s hot considered in good taste among the Parisian exquisites, and so the white satin Corsets of the dandies of Compiegne have found but few imitators in France. : An Anecdote of Fernando Wood.
