I are several excellent people who on my recommendation furnished their rooms as though they were meant for rational beings to live in, and bought a little good pottery and hari brac of really pretty and ‘uapretenti s to adorn them. But now, when they meet me they shake their heads and say, “Ah, Bunthorne, you msthetes are getting dreadfully laughed at nowadays. Been to see Patience, eh?” And when IT go to their houses, I notice that the old blue and the Benares ware is pushed into a corner, whiie the great ormolu monstros- ity under a giass case is replaced in the center uf the mantelshelf, and the big vases with the wrigely green handles are set up once more to mount guard over it on either side. It is no use telling these good people that Mr. Pu Mau- rier and Mr. Gilbert are only joking in a good- natured way; they say, ‘No, no; this msthet- icism of yours is getting played out.” To their simple minds, ridicule is ridicule, and nothing else. If it only er a out the extravagances which must necessarily accompany every great movement, one wouldn't really mind. (f sup- pose there are extravagances, though I confess IT myself don’t come across them.) But it is also In part crushing out what is truly good and vital in the movement, at least with a larze section of the people ; and therefore it seems to me areal pity. We were in hopes that we were at last getting the thin end of the wedge into the compact mass of Philistinism; if we are laughed down now the result must be that the difference in culture between the different strata of our population will be even greater than It is at present. And that surely would be an un- mitigated evil, not to be compensated for even by the pleasure of laughing at a clever carica- ture of my bumble personality for a couple of hours to the lively accompaniment of Mr. Sulli- vau's animated music.—Pall Mall Gazelle. ——— Sensible English Notions About the Care of Horses, To guard against chills and colds, with the loss of time, expense and risk of unsound wind which often follows, horse owners require to be on the alert, especially at this season of the year. Horses aiternately sharply worked, and when hot allowed to stand in the open air until pearly cool, should have warm covering, water- proof on one side, for their back and loins. Farm as well as town horses often catch cold whilst their thirsty drivers are lelsurely refresh- Ing in the public house, and the mischief is sometimes aggravated by the extra spurt which is afterwards put on to make up lost time. Many horses, coueuialy if they have been allowed to lie out during the later autumn nights, have already grown a lo! thick winter coat which causes ready perspiration; it 1s almost imposi Ule to get them properly dry; they stand chilled throughout the greater part of the night, and hence thrive indifferently, and are especially liable to colds. Whether of the light or heavier breeds, all horses which, from habit or previous Management, grow these long, heavy coats, should be singed or clipped entirely or par- tially. Trimming or siuging the long hairs along the chest or belly, and down the lezs to the knees and hocks, usually suffices for farm horses. Where hard or fast work is reqnired, the Irish plan of clipping the bair from the chest, belly, armsand thighs proves a great com- fort to the horse, and often saves halfa bushel of corn a week. If they are to do their work cheerfully and well, hoy changing their coats require for some weeks little extra corn or some other good food. Horses recently brought into full work require more consideration than they receive.

This was when I was a private citizen, living at Lancaster. I heard nothing more about ‘the matter until some years after- ward, when I became President. Forney then quarrelied with me because I could not give him the best office in the gift of my administration. He wrote me insolent letters. demanding that I should reconyey the property to him. I told him this was impossible for me to do, unless by a proceeding in a court of chancery ofthe Dis- trict of Columbia, in which the Pri United States would i consent I informed him that no one could suffer by letting the matter remain as it was; that the property was advancing in value every day, which would result to the benefit of his wife, who was a most estimable woman.

She was a large, well-tormed and remarkably attractive lady, and soon be- came a great fayorite with the Washington society of those days, which was chiefly com- posed of the democratic aristocracy of the south. She had many admirers, and not a few sought her hand in marriage. A Mr. Johnson, a wealthy Baltimore banker, was the fortunate gentleman who secured herhand and heart. Mr. Buchanan had two sisters, Mrs, Lane and Mrs. Dr. Yeates, of Meadville, Pa. During the ‘“Hard-cider” campaign of 1840,1 edited the Crawford Democrat at Meadville, and had the pleasure of numbering Mrs. Yeates among my friends. She was an amiable and warm-hearted woman. Mr. Buchanan visited her that year, while he was on a “stumping” tour through Pennsylvania. I made a full report of his speech in Erie, and before having it put in type I thought it best to submit the mannscript to him for revision and correction.
