ECHOES OF THE WEEK.
The process of cutting up the remains of the late Thomas
Carlyle and publishing them piecemeal in octavo form con-
tinues, to the pleasure and profit, I hope, of all parties
concerned. The latest ‘‘ taste of the quality’’ of Mr. Carlyleas
a critic of the characters, and even of the personal appearance,
of the persons with whom he was brought in social and
amicable contact is given in the account of a Journeyto Ireland
in the momentous year 1849. I have not the slightest inten-
tion of reviewing the work, which is in many parts as graphic
and entertaining as Mr. Thackeray’s ‘‘ Trish Sketch-Book.’’
1 only wish to draw attention to Mr. Carlyle’s wonderful
fuculty as a portrait-painter in words. I must quote him in
large type.
‘* Dr. Cooke Taylor is announced :—A snuffling, babbling,
baddish fellow, whom I had not wished at all specially to
ae A peculiar smile, too, dwelt on the face of poor
suuffy Taylor. I pitied, but could not love him, with his lazy,
gurgling, semi-masticated, semi-deceitful (and self-deceiving)
speech, thought, and action.”’
A wonderful Seer this who could tell a man’s thoughts, the
first time he ever saw him, by the way he took snuff and
sniffed! The Sage’s description of Sir Philip Crampton (the
father of Sir John Crampton, sometime her Majesty’s Ambas-
sador at St. Petersburg and at Madrid) is equally sweet.
‘* A Sir Philip Crampton, by no means the most notable of
my callers, yet now the most noted in my memory; an aged,
rather vain, and not very deep-looking Doctor of Physic.”
Did Mr. Carlyle expect Sir Philip to carry the Dublin Phar-
macopoia and a whole Bodyof Surgery in his face? Elsewhere
he speaks of meeting ‘‘ an elderly roué Prince or Graf Some-
thing, a very unbeautiful, old boiled looking (Swede, I think),
married to Somebody’s sister.”’
Mr. Burton, the artist, will be delighted to find himself
limned by the Carlylean pencil in the following flattering
terms :—‘‘ Burton, a young portrait-painter; thin, aquiline
man, with long thin locks, scattered about; with alook of real
painter’s talent; but, then, thin, proud, vain: not a pleasant
man of genius.’’ To this complimentary sketch (which reminds
one of Sir Robert Peel on the Prince de Ligne) Mr. J.°A.
Froude appends in a foot-note, ‘‘ At present connected with
the National Gallery in London,’? Why, Mr. Burton, one of
the most famous of living water-colour painters, is the
Director of the National Gallery, Mr. J. Ostrich Froude.
The late Mr. Isaac Butt, M.P., also takes an involuntary
sitting from this terrible miniature-painter of Chelsea.
‘Counsellor Butt, brought up to me by Duffy, a terrible
black burly son of earth: talent visible in him; but still
mere animalism: big, bison head, black, not quite unbrutal.
Glad when he went off to the Galway circuit, or whither-
soever.”’
I wonder whether the distinguished gentlemen who gave
the authorof ‘‘ Sartor Resartus’’ such a hearty welcome when
he visited Dublin in 1849 would have been so very glad to meet
him had they known that the person to whom they were doing
their best to be hospitable and polite would proceed to set
down all kinds of ill-natured and ‘ cantankerous”? things
about them in his diary. ‘The case of Dr. Cooke Taylor seenis
tu me a very hard one. He was a very versatile scholar,
an LL.D. of Trinity College, Dublin, and a prolitic writer.
Among his works was ‘*'The Natural History of Society.”
Lord Clarendon, during his Viceroyalty, made Dr. Cooke
Taylor Statistician for Ireland; but the poor gentleman died
soon afterwards from cholera.
Most students are cognisant of Bacon's strictures in the
‘¢ Advancement of Learning’’ on the Commonplace Books of
his time. ‘‘ But this is true,’”? wrote Francis of Verulam,
‘‘that of the methods of commonplaces that I have seen there
is none of any sufficient worth ; all of them carrying the face
of a school, and not of a world; and referring to vulgar
matters and pedantical divisions without respect to action.”
The passage recurred to my memory as I was turning over
the part for June of that admirable periodical, Zhe Girls’ Own
’aper, in which is successfully practised every week the art of
being serious without being ‘*slow,’’ and the even more difficult
craft of smiling without being silly. ‘‘ How to Keep a Common-
Place Book’? is the article which caught my attention in The
Girls’ ; and the writer seems to think that the best system of
common-placing is that recommended by the Rev. Dr. John
Todd, the author of the well-known **Students’ Manual.’’
Dr. ‘l'odd’s plan is rather too elaborate to be explained here in
The
detail; but the ‘‘Manual’’ is an accessible work, and
Girls’ Own Paper even more 80.

Hungerford-street, leading to the market, there was a famous pastrycook’s
shop, at which the penny buns were as good as those sold at Farrance’s in
Cockspur-street. (1025).
Now, all you have to dois, immediately you have made
your entry, to index it ; and, if you will only spare the patience
and perseverance, to cross index it. Thus, under letter W you
will write ‘‘ Wales, Prince of, Married in Robes of the Garter ”’
(1023) ; under G, ‘‘ Garter, Robes of, worn by P. of W. at his
Marriage ’’ (1023); under F, W. P. Frith, R.A., present at
Marriage of P. of W. (1023). Thus, also, ‘‘ Verdi, Victor
Emmanuel,’’ and ‘ Italy ’’ will be indexed under their respec-
tive letters of “‘V’’ and “*I,’’ and be referable to at the
number (1024). I have one common place book that has been
‘*cooking*’ ever since 1858, and is not half finishedyet. The last
entry is numbered (5068), and refers to Sir Thomas Roe,
Ambassador from James the First of England to the Emperor
Jehan Guize, commonly called the Great Mogul. Thenumber
(5068) is referred to under the letters KR (for Roe) J (for
James I.) J, and for Jehan Guize; M for Mogul, and A (for
Ambassadors). By means of a rigidly pursued system of in-
dexing and cross indexing (so earnestly recommended by Henry
3rougham) you can put your hand at once on the information
bearing on the particular subject which claims your attention.
Mem.: I believe that this system strengthens and dis-
ciplines the memory and keeps it green. It isa very good mental
exercise to read a page or two of the index alone, from time
to time. You will be astonished at the number of bright
nuggets of fact which will crop up from the rock of half for-
getfulness. Finally, never allow your index to fall into arrear,
and write the figures in your circumscribed spaces in red ink.
The corresponding ones in the index may be in black.
I promised, last week, that I would furnish a specimen of
Monsieur “‘ British Constitution’? Delolme—I beg pardon for
having inadvertently robbed him of his particle: it should be
De Lolme—as a comic writer. I quote from the preface to the
Fourth Edition, dated May, 1784:—
When my enlarged English edition was ready for the press, had I ac-
quainted Ministers that I was preparing to boil my tea kettle with it, for
want of being able conveniently to afford the expense of printing it, I do
not pretend to say what their answer would have been; but I am firmly of
opinion that had the like arguments in favour of the existing Government
of this country against Republican principles (the man was himself a
citizen of the Helvetic Republic) been shown to Charles the First or his
Ministers at a certain period of his reign, they would very willingly have
defrayed the expenses of publication.
Disappointed in his attempt to obtain pecuniary “ en-
couragement’’ from the British Government, and even from
the booksellers, he had recourse to a subscription, of which he
incidentally remarks :—
At the time the above subscription was advertising, a copy of the French
work was asked of me by a noble Earl, then invested with a high office in
the State. I gave the only copy I had; and I added that I hoped his Lord-
ship would honour me with his subscription. However, my hopes were here
again confounded. I presumed to remind his Lordship in a letter that
the book in question had never been paid fur; and [I must do his Lordship
(who is, moreover, a Knight of the Garter) the justice to acknowledge that,
no later than a week afterwards, he sent two half-crowns to me to a book-
seller's in Fleet-street. A lady brought them in a coach, who took a
receipt. As she was, by the bookseller’s account, a fine lady, although not
@ peeress, it gave me much concern that I was not present to deliver the
receipt to her myself,
I wonder who the noble Earl was. The Earl of Sand-

wonder who the latly was who brought the two half-crowns in
a coach to Fleet-street. Miss Ray? It was in 1779 that the
luckless lady was assassinated by Hackman; but De Lolme
came to England in 1773, and by 1776 had got his ‘‘ Con-
stitution ’’ ready for the press.
There has been an extremely funny blunder in the
journalism of the past week. In one of the London morning
papers a paragraph appeared setting forth that a ‘‘ Congress
of Drunkards”’ had just met, somewhere in the United States,
and that the ‘‘drunkards’’ who assembled were twenty thousand
strong. Forthwith a writer attached to another London
morning paper blithely seized on the ‘‘ twenty thousand
drunkards ”’ as a first-rate subject for a leading article, and
discoursed, to the extent of about a column and a quarter,
about what the Congress might or might not have been like.
Then came an explanation in another morning paper that the
twenty thousand people who had assembled were not
Drunkards, but ‘‘ Dunkers.’’
The Dunkers are a sect of, originally, German Baptists, or
‘*Brethren,’’ as they prefer to be called, who emigrated to
America between the years 1718 and 1730. In 1723 they
established a church at Germantown, Pennsylvania, under the
ministry of one Peter Becker. In the ontset they were known
as German First Day Baptists, from their observing the first
day of the week as the Subbath ; but in 1725, Conrad Beissel,
a leading member of a Dunker community at Mill Creek,
avowed his preference for the seventh day (the Jewish Sabbath)
as the Christian Sunday, and founded a sect known as the
German Seventh Day Baptists.
In 1735 a kind of monastic society was formed by Beissel
and his followers, who set up a small colony called Ephrata.
The brethren assumed the garb of White Friars—a long white
robe, reaching down to the heels, with a girdle round the waist,
and a cowl hanging down the back. Although they took no
vows, all who entered the Ephrata cloister received monastic
names. Vennsylvania is still the head-quarters of the
Dunkers ; and most people, I should say, will be surprised to
learn that so many as twenty thousand of these harmless
sectarians could be gathered together. A newspaper is not
the proper place in which to give a detailed account of the
peculiar theological tenets held by the Dunkers; but I may
just mention that in their baptismal rite they administer
‘‘trine’? immersion. When the person is kneeling in the
water he is plunged three times head forward under water.
Moliére, they say, used to read his comedies in MS. to his
ancient housekeeper, and if the good dame laughed the
3
dramatist felt that success was assured for his production. I
have heard of a distinguished politician who always made a
preliminary trial on his dog of the speech which he intended to
deliver in Parliament. If the intelligent animal howled, the
politician made up his mind that the speech would strike terror
and despair to the hearts of her Majesty’s Government. Un-
official criticism is often the sincerest, and consequently the
most valuable; but I own to having been slightly staggered
by an item in the evidence given during the cross-examination
of the plaintiff in a wonderful libel case now in progress to
the effect that, on one occasion at least, a hairdresser has been
called to pronounce as to the merits of a work of art. Suid
the plaintiff :—
Baron Rothschild’s hair-dresser called on me at the instance of the
family, not particularly about the arrangement of the hair, but about ihe
bust generally, as he had a good knowledge of the Baron, and the fumily had
great confidence in him.
Baron, Rothschild’s hairdresser is, perhaps, an exceptionally
intelligent coifeur ; still, does it not make you feel slightly
uneasy—is there not something of the sensation of a new
terror being added to life in the thought that the supple-
handed Figaro who is shaving or “ fixing’? you may be
‘‘ taking stock,’’ every morning, of your countenance : count-
ing your crowsfeet and reckoning up your wrinkles? If
**gi’e us’ would only rhyme to ‘‘sees us,’’ one might paras
phrase Burns very pertinently, and exclaim—
O wad some Power the giftie gi’e us
To see oursel’s as Truetitt sees us !
The following, quoted from ‘‘ Atlas’’ in the World, puzzles
me :—
It is time that all this nonsense about American actors and acting should
be blown aside. We have seen over here all their best male artists, and,
with the exception of that most admirable actor Mr. Jefferson, what have
we found? Rough-and-ready force, of the John Ryder type, in John
McCullough ; conventional old-school tradition in Edwin Booth; con-
ventional low comedy in Florence ; conventional Paddywhack, stuffed-stick
Irishman in Barney Williams. Miss Geneviéve Ward,I believe, is an
American citizen, and one of whom her country may well be proud; but I
do not recollect any other Transatlantic actaesses who have played in
London,
But were not Miss Charlotte and Miss Susan Cushman
Americans? Are not Mrs. Crowe (Miss Kate Bateman), Miss
Isabel Bateman, and her sister Virginia, Americans? Is not
Miss Bella Pateman an American? Say.
Several correspondents have been so kind as to inform me
that the lines beginning ‘‘ He Might have been a King,” which
I thought might be by Andrew Marvell, were, in reality, written
by George Villiers, Second Duke of Buckingham, and are part
of an epitaph on his father-in-law, Thomas, Lord Fairfax.
Likewise do a score of correspondents refresh my memory as
to the famous lines of Andrew Marvell on the death of Charles I.
It should be ‘‘ keener ’’ and not ‘‘ eager’’ eye. I must lift my
hat in courteous salutation to one correspondent, who suggests
that the correct reading should be ‘‘eagle’* eye: an eagle eye
being a peculiar characteristic of the Stuarts. Physically,
that might have been so. Morally, they seem to have been
rather a purblind race.
The veteran Mr. William J. Thoms, whose attainment of
the honorary grade of a Centenarian some of us (notwith-
standing the Horatian caveat to Sextus) I hope will live to
witness, has written to the Morning Post to correct an erroneous
statement made in a leading article in the journal in question,
to the effect that the late Sir G. Cornewall Lewis was an utter
disbeliever in Centenarianism. Mr. Thoms points out that he
himself was led to take up the topic of exceptional longevity
in consequence of receiving from Sir G. C. Lewis a com-
munication concerning one Mrs. Esher Strike, who was
baptised at Wingfield, Berks, June 3, 1755, and was buried at
St. Peter’s, in the same county, in February, 1862. There
have assuredly been centenarians; but, like blue diamonds,
they are not plentiful. I hope that fifty correspondents will
not write to teil me that they have each a blue diamond in their
possession.
The appointment of Mr. T. H. 8. Escott to the editorial
chair of the Fortnightly Review, vice Mr. John Morley resigned,
is an event in the world of journalism; and I should be a
traitor to my craft and unmindful of its claims to esteem and
consideration were I not to hasten to congratulate Mr. Escott
on his assumption of sway in the bureau of the Fortnightly.
He is a thoroughly capable and exceptionally accomplished
gentleman, a distinguished classical scholar, and the possessor
of vast knowledge and experience, not only of books and
newspapers but of public men and public things. There are
many journalists in this country who, were they Frenchmen,
or Americans, or Italians, would be called upon to serve the
State—who would be deputies and ministers, as Thiers, Guizot,
Villemain, Prevost Paradol, Emile de Girardin; or as diplo-
matists, as Washington Irving, John Lothrop Motley,
Bayard Taylor, Robert Dale Owen, George Bancroft, John
Russell Young, Eugene Schuyler, and James Russell
Lowell have been. ‘Things are ordered differentiy in this
country ; that is to say, they are ordered on ,the lines of
the Feudal system. And although it is not unlikely
that Mr. John Morley will sooner or later go into his proper
place in the House of Commons, I scarcely expect to see
Mr. Edwin Arnold or Mr. Edward Dicey, Mr. Frederick
Greenwood or Mr. Traill, Mr. Escott or Mr. Mudford, Mr.
Frank Hill or Mr. Sutherland Edwards in Parliament. As for
an English journalist aspiring to be so much as a Secretary of
Legation or a Chargé-d’Afiaires ut a foreign Court, Proh
pudor! Tobe sure, Benjamin Franklin, printer, postmaster,
journalist, philosopher, and patriot, was deemed worthy to sit
at the same council-table at Versailles with British Pleni-
potentiaries—when they could not help themselves.
Mem.: An American correspondent tells me that the
costume which Franklin wore when he was insulted by
Wedderburn at the sitting of the Privy Council at the Cockpit,
Whitehall, was not black, but ‘‘ Manchester spotted velvet.’’

 6 THE
ALEXANDRIA: THE CRISIS IN EGYPT.
The Bird’s-Eye View of the Port and City of Alexandria,
which is presented in the large Engraving that supplies our
Extra Supplement, was sketched by Mr. W. Simpson, our
well-known Special Artist. Several Illustrations of this
important Mediterranean seaport and commercial town, the
maritime gate of Egypt as well in modern as in ancient times,
were given in our last week’s publication, with a description
of its existing condition. It was founded by the Macedonian
conqueror of the East, Alexander the Great, 332 years before the
Christian era; and under the Greek dynasty of the Ptolemies,
and subsequently under the Roman Empire, was one of the
most flourishing cities of the old world. But few remains
of the ancient city, which stood on the western mainland
shore, opposite the island of Pharos, since converted into
a peninsula, are now extant; its extent, from east to
west, seems to have been four miles, traversed by two
grand streets, each 100 ft. wid@; and the whole city
was nearly fifteen miles in circumference. The Catacombs,
the public cisterns, and the column erected in honour of
Diocletian, which is called Pompey’s Pillar, with some por-
tions of the Roman city wall, still remain to attest the
traditions of classical antiquity. Alexandria owed its wealth
and prosperity to the conformation of the seashore, with the
shelter aiforded by the small Pharos islet, providing a com-
modious harbuur, called by the Greeks Eunostos, with good
anchorage in deep water, on the western side. The eastern
harbour, though it is called the New Harbour, has been little
used, being exposed to the north winds, much clogged with
sand, and having a foul and rocky bottom. ‘lhese two
harbours, as before explained, are separated from each other
by a broad causeway, or artificial isthmus, now joining Pharos
to the mainland of Egypt. ‘This tract of land, however, on
the main, is of no great width, lying between Lake Mareotis,
to the west, and the Bay of Aboukir, eastward; while the
Canopie mouth of the Nile is. to the east fourteen miles
distant. There is a connection with the Nile by the
Mahmonudieh Canal, which extends from Alexandria to
Fouah, a distance of forty-eight miles. The distance to Cairo
is about 130 miles by railway, but it is a journey of five hours.
Our Bird’s-Eye View distinguishes the ancient Pharos light-
house tower at one end, and the modern lighthouse at the
other extremity of the originai island; the Khedive’s Palace
of Ras-et-Tin, situated on the island, next the lighthouse and
fort: the western harbour, with the new breukwater, the
Khedive’s yachts, a ship of war, and some mercantile ship-
ping; the jetty for landing passengers of the Peninsular
and Oriental Steam-Ship Company; the Arsenal, at the
inner harbour; the Catacombs, on the southern shore,
marking the site of the ancient city; Pompey’s Pillar,
still erect, and the site where Cleopatra’s Needle, with
her companion obelisk, remained from the time when they
were brought down from Upper Egypt till they were carried
off to London and New York; the Rosetta gate, and road
to Rosetta, on the one hand, leading eastward from the
city of Alexandria; the Mahmoudieh Canal, and the
railway to Cairo, along the shore of Lake Mareotis, on
the other hand. The interior of the town itself presents
no features of interest ;there are the quays, with old-fashioned
rather squalid houses on the shore of the Old Port; the Arab
quarter, to the south, consisting of mud hovels; the cotton-
market, the canal wharves, the railway station, and barracks,
on the same side; to the east, facing the New Port, beyond
Fort Napoleon, is the Grand Square, the Place des Consuls, or
Frank Square, formerly called the Place Mahomet Ali, which
has, with several adjacent streets, come to be chiefly inhabited
by European residents. It was in the Ruedes Seeurs, ‘‘Sikket
el Binaat,”’ in this quarter of the city, that the frightful riots
of Sunday, June 11, began, and simultaneously in two other
places, and along the Marina. These parts of Alexandria seem
to have been quite out of sight, as well as out of reach, of the
British naval squadron lyingin the harbour or in the outer
roadstead.
A correspondent of our own at Alexandria writes concern-
ing the ferocious attack on the Europeans, that the disturbance
began about two o’clock of that Sundayuafternoon. ‘‘ It appears
now evident that it was premeditated on the part of the lower
class of natives, as groups of them were seen loitering about
early in the day, all more or less armed with heavy cudgels.
There was a quarrel between a Maltese and an Arab; the latter
was stabbed, which caused the mob to assemble and begin the
attack. Many Europeans were killed about three o’clock, and
then the mob increased rapidly, and began wrecking the shops,
which in some cases were defended by the Europeans firing
upon their assailants. This exasperated the mob, which was
already excited, to a degree of fury approaching madness;
and a desperate conflict ensued. No effort was made by either
the police or the municipal guard to put down the riot, and in
a few cases they are accused of having aided the mob. The
military appeared on the scene about five o’clock, and charged
down the streets; both officers and soldiers behaved well
during this terrible ordeal. As soon as some sort of tran-
quillity was restored, the military took charge of the streets,
which they still hold; and the authorities have done their
utmost to restore confidence. But the terror has been so great,
and the complete stoppage to all kind of business has thrown
so many people out of employ, that thousands of destitute
Europeans, Greeks, Maltese, and others have left. The exodus
is roughly estimated at 30,000 during the week. The com-
mercial and banking houses having closed, the better classes
have all left or are about leaving. From the interior all
Europeans are flocking in; the rnin to thousands is appalling,
and the native population will feel it as much as the Europeans,
having no means of disposing of their produce or obtaining
employment. It will take Egypt years to recover itself, and
certainly not by means of the interference of foreign Powers,
whoever they may be. As four-fifths of the commerce is in
the hands of British houses, you may imagine with what
f-clings this state of things is regarded by us.
** I inclose another sketch of pillagers taking flight at the
a”proach of the military. After the streets had been cleared,
and the dead and wounded removed, onthe next day, Monday,
end since then, search was made for stolen property. Of this,
much has been recovered, and wherever it has been found the
holders were at once arrested. A large number of people of
tlie lowest class, of such a character as is always to be found
in large cities, and especially in the Levant, are now in prison
awaiting sentence. The military, both officers and men, are
indignant at the excesses committed by the mob. I will not
send you any sketch of the dead as they layin the different
mortuaries at the hospitals, as the spectacle was too ghastly.’’
We are indebted to another correspondent for Sketches of
the Lighthouse Fort at Alexandria, and of the earthworks
and batteries erected on the shore, close to the windmills of
Meks. ‘These were only 600 yards distant from the stern of
H.M.S. Monarch, but would be of no account whatever in
case of hostilities, as the men in the batteries would be ex-
to the fire of the ship’s Gatling and Nordenfeldt guns.
The Lighthouse Fort contains barracks for two thousand men,
but its guns are of an inferior kind, mostly cast-iron smooth-
borg sixty-four pounders, with a few rifled guns, and could
ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS
be silenced by the fire of one ironclad ship. The other
sketches represent the scene in the harbour of Alexandria, at
the arrival of the Khedive, Tewfik Pasha, from Cairo, on
Tuesday, "the 13th, when the British and French naval
squadrons, and other foreign ships of war, dressed with flags
and fired salutes in honour of his Highness the legitimate ruler
of Egypt.
One of our Artist’s minor Sketches is a separate view of
the lighthouse from the inside of the harbour. To the west
of it are a few bare rocks, washed by the sea; andit is bya
continuation of these rocks under water, extending still farther
to the west, that the entrance to the harbour is narrowed, and
rendered so far dangerous to ships entering. The point of
land round the lighthouse has been well fortified with bat-
teries, armed with guns in casemates and some en barbette.
The following authentic particulars of the harbour defences
will be found interesting :—Bearing on the entrance, one bat-
tery has five nine-inch muzzle-loading rifled Armstrongs. At
the harbour point, three of the same, one bearing on the
Monarch, are in readiness. Fort Ada has one heavy ten-inch
rifled gun. Some heavy guns are at Kaferillia. Two rifled
guns are bearing on H.M.S. Invincible. Inside the harbour
there is a host of smooth-bore batteries. All the guns, how-
ever, are iniserably mounted, and would be silenced by the
fleet in half an hour. ; week, on the uppermost City topics.
We have also this week to publish, with feelings of
regret and sympathy, the portraits of two young Englishmen
who were among the murdered victims of mob fury at
Alexandria on that fatal Sunday afternoon. They were both
from Manchester, and engaged in commercial business; they
were in joint charge of a stock of cotton goods, worth about
£4000, stored in the Manchester House, Place des Consuls, at
Alexandria. Mr. Robert James Dobson, who was but twenty
years of age, was son of Mr. Robert Dobson, of Manchester,
and brother to Mr. John R. Dobson, of the Gresham Shipping
House, Bloom-street, in that city. Mr. Reginald John
Richardson, who was seven or eight years older, was acting for
Mr. Dobson, senior, in his business at Alexandria; and was
assisted by the younger-gentleman. It appears that they were
personally acquainted with some members of the staff of the
Eastern Telegraph Company at Alexandria. During the riots
on the Marina, an attempt was made by the telegraph officials
to secure the shore end of the submarine cable in the harbour
from being destroyed or damaged by the mob. This drew
upon them a murderous attack; and Mr. Richardson and Mr.
Dobson, seeing their friends in danger, gallantly interposed to
aid in their defence. They were unhappily struck down, and
either killed on the spot, or so much injured by savage blows
and wounds as to die shortly afterwards in the hospital.
The other Englishmen killed were Dr. H. Ribton, Mr.
Pibworth, chief engineer of H.M.S. Superb, and two seamen
of H.M.S. Helicon; while Mr. Cookson, the British Consul-
General, was severely beaten. Several of the other European
victims of this massacre, being Maltese, were British subjects;
and our Government will demand full satisfaction. Germans,
Italians, Greeks, and one American, were killed in the affray,
which cost above fifty lives of foreigners, and as many of the
natives. The sketch on our front page was drawn by an eye-
witness in the Rue des Seurs.
The new Egyptian Ministry has been formed. The Pre-
sident of the Council and Minister for Foreign Affairs is
Ragheb Pasha, a Turk, formerly Minister of Finance under the
Khedive Ismail, and author of his famous financial project.
The Minister for War is Arabi Pasha; and for Finance,
Abdelrahmar. Pasha Rushdi, said to be the son of a renegade
Maltese. The Minister for the Interior is Ahmed Rashid
Pasha, formerly Sub-Minister of the Interior. Tothe Ministry
of Public Works Mahmud Falaki Pasha, hitherto known as the
Astronomer-Royal and as an antiquary, has been appointed;
and to that of Justice, Ali Ibrahim Pasha, formerly Judge of
the International Court of Appeal, efterwards Minister of
Instruction, a respectable but weak man. To the Ministry of
Wakfs and Religion, Hassan Pasha Cherei, who held a similar
post in the last Ministry, has been nominated; and to that of
Public Instruction, Suleiman Pasha Abaza.
The British Consul-General in Egypt, Sir Edward Malet,
has been obliged to go to Brindisi for the sake of his health ;
while Mr. Cookson, the British Consul at Alexandria, is still
suffering from the ill-treatment he met with on the 11th;
and Mr. Calvert, the Vice-Consul, has resigned. The few Eng-
lish residents still remaining in Alexandria have been warned
by the acting Vice-Consul to take up their quarters at the
Eastern Telegraph Office, as, at any moment, news coming
from Constantinople, whether true or false, might lead to a
popular outbreak. The Cousuls-General have resolved to de-
cline the proposal for a mixed commission of inquiry respect-
ing the riots of the 11th, but they demand that the Egyptian
Government shall punish the offenders.
We have been favoured with the following copy of a
telegram from Mr. Anderson to Mr. Edward Easton :—
** Alexandria, June 27, Evening.—Fitzgerald and Blum
are in Alexandria. The intimation of the intention to seize
us as hostages came from the army and the Notables. Mr.
Cornish, the manager of the Alexandria Waterworks Com-
pany, refuses to leave. There have been fresh murders of
Christians in the Delta villages. Our people are leaving
Samahieh, (a farm bought by Mr. Easton from Ragheb Pasha
for the Beltim Land and Irrigation Company.) My opinion is
that a tragedy is inevitable. I am leaving to-night.”’
Mr. Edward Easton, of Delahay-street, Westminster, is
the engineer for the vast works of irrigation and land reclama-
tion, in different parts of the Delta, in which British and other
capital to the amount of three millions sterling is invested; he is
also the engineer of the Alexandria Waterworks. Our atten-
tion has been drawn to a paragraph in our contemporary, the
Engineer, upon the subject of the water-supply of Alexandria;
and to another statement, which appeared in the Standard on
Wednesday, relating to the rumour that the Alexandria
Waterworks had been taken over by the Egyptian Govern-
ment. These statements areincorrect, and it is to be regretted
that anything should be published upon the subject, at this
moment, without more authentic and accurate information.
We hope, in a week or two, to be enabled to put before our
readers a complete account of those important undertakings,
accompanied by an interesting series of Illustrations.
The report that troops are being sent to occupy the Suez
Canal, whether true or not, has produced an impression.
Arabi Pasha has gone out of his way to tell people that he
considers the Canal an international work, and would never
think of stopping the traffic.
‘Thirteen hundred more refugees from Egypt have arrived
at Malta, where there are now 2200 lodged in the Lazaretto,
and more are expected. Five steamers have arrived at the
Pireus, bringing about 3500 fugitives from Egypt. |All these
steamers have since returned to Alexandria. ‘The total number
of fugitives in Greece up to the present is 7500. ‘The Lord
Mayor of London has formed a committee and opened a sub-
scription for the relief of the Maltese refugees. Since June 2
6282 had arrived, 2000 of whom are quite destitute.
The Sultan of Turkey has sent the order of the Medjidieh
to Arabi Pasha, in token of approval of his conduct; and the
Turkish Government has addressed a fresh Circular to the
JULY 1, 1882
Powers, repeating its objections to the European Conference
on
Egyptian affairs, and annexing two despatches from Dervish
Pasha. In one the Turkish Commissioner states that he has
obtained the submission of a deputation representing the
entire Egyptian army; and in the other he details the result
of the meetings of the Council of Ministers, the arrangement
arrived at including a free pardon to all implicated in recent
events in Egypt. The Circular urges upon the European
Powers the desirability of abandoning the Conference. At
Constantinople, meanwhile, the Conference has already held
three sittings; but the strictest secrecy as to its proceedings is
observed. ,
Preparations are being made at Malta for the embarkation
of troops, and the Government of India has received com-
munications from the Home authorities with respect to the
dispatch of troops from India to Egypt. A force of Marines
and of Royal Marine Artillery is about being embarked for
Malta. Large quantities of arms and ammunition are also being
shipped.
CITY ECHOES.
WEDNEsDAY.
Under this title it is proposed to say a few words, week by
We do not desire, how-
ever, to be regarded as setting up as a guide or monitor on
such matters, though it is not intended altogether to withhold
warnings or exposure from the fear of giving offence. We
take it for granted that the bulk of our readers are more or
less concerned in investments, and shall endeavour, by expo-
sition and record, to keep them informed on the main points
of interest, that they may at least have the means of
judgment.
Perhaps the chief cause of anxiety among investors at
present is the Egyptian crisis. Upon repeated assurances from
the English and French Governments, very important sums of
money have within recent years been retained in or sent to
Egypt. One set of investors lent to the State, another set
undertook public works, and another set embarked upon
mercantile operations. The intrusion of Arabi and his
military followers has been followed by events which decreased
the value of even the most secure Egyptian investments by
quite 25 per cent; while a variety of miscellaneous invest-
ments have been more seriously injured, some beyond all
chance of recovery. The holders of Egyptian securities recall
with alarm what happened to Turkish bonds, and they ask
themselves if it is not better to face the present loss and ‘‘ get
out’’ of Egyptian without further delay’ It is difficult to meet
such inquiries ; but unless we can bring ourselves to the con-
clusion thatthe Western Powers, and England more particularly,
could abandon Egypt und the Suez Canal, it is impossible to
see the wisdom of selling out of Egyptian at the present
reduced prices. It is, however, made quite clear by recent
events that Egyptian Stocks do not possess the degree of
guarantee from the ‘‘ Anglo-French control’’ which it was
assumed they had. That being so, a permanently lower level
of prices, as compared with that of, say, a year back, would be
inevitable., It should not, moreover, be lost sight of that
buyers of Egyptian Stocks, even at the highest prices, have
all along had a rate of interest greatly in excess of what is
derivable from English or Indian Government securities, or
even the best railway securities. That higher rate was just
the measure of the risk which was assumed to be incurred, and
now we see that the provision for accidents was most oppor-
tune. There is, however, but little satisfaction for the
sufferers in this.
But this week it has not only been Egyptian securities
which have seriously declined. Consols, the best railway
securities, and the more marketable descriptions, have gene-
rally given way. Permanent holders need not, however, regard
this movement with anxiety. It is due to political uneasiness,
in part, and to another extent it is the result of the losses
among speculative holders or dabblers in Egyptian securities.
If an operator has an account open in Egyptian on which there
is a great loss, he has most likely to sell railway or any other
stock to make gocd that loss; and, if he is speculating in
several directions, and is losing in one of them, his broker
may have to close all rather than continue the risk. ‘Thus the
area of depreciation is widened, and every fall makes yet
further sales necessary. It is not reasonable to suppose that
Consols, London and North-Western, and other high-class
stocks are not worth as much this week as they were a
month ago; and, apart from the Egyptian crisis, it seems
likely that, with the turn of the half-year, there will be some
rebound in the prices of undoubted securities.
The story of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company
during the first year of its existence is a remarkable one, and
the effect of what is being done is exciting the notice of both
America and Europe, for Canada has virgin corn lands enough
to meet all the foreign requirements of Europe, and we may
expect to hear little more of American grain ‘‘corners.’’ In
the just completed first year, the company built and acquired
857 miles of road. This summer the Canadian Government have
to complete and transfer to the company 300 miles, while the
company themselves have let contracts for the construction of
769 miles before winter setsin. By the fall, therefore, there
should be 1800 miles in operation. Of the land on either side
of the line not reserved for school and other purposes, about
750,000 acres have been sold during the past six months,
chiefly in lots of 160 acres, and to immigrants. Rapid sales of
land are not, however, to be wondered at, when we consider
that the price is 10s. per acre, subject to a return of 5s. per
acre for all that is cultivated within a given number of years.
The seventy-sixth anniversary festival dinner in aid of the
Licensed Victuallers’ School was held at the Crystal Palace
on Tuesday evening, under the presidency of Mr. Thomas
Boord, M.P. The company numbered about 700 guests. ‘There
are at present 203 children maintained and educated in the
school, the largest number there has been since its foundation.
On quitting the school apprenticeship fees are paid, and many
of the scholars have attained to responsible positions in life.
Subscriptions and donations were announced to £4700.

 JULY 1, 1882 THE
THE PLAYHOUSES.
At the Lyceum last Saturday, the twenty-fourth ult., took
place the hundredth performance of ‘‘ Romeo and Juliet,’’ as
it is interpreted by Mr. Henry Irving and Miss Ellen Terry,
and under its existing conditions of hitherto unequalled
splendour and refined taste in scenic embellishment, costume,
decoration, and stagemanagement. The ‘‘event”’ celebrated was
a ‘‘double’’ one; not only was the performance the ‘‘ century ’’
of the tragedy at the Lyceum, but it was for the benetit of
Miss Ellen Terry, the gifted actress, who is so winning, so
graceful, so sympathetic, so fascinating, that were Pope yet
among us he might revive, in praise of the Belinda of our day,
the beautiful machinery of the Rosicrucian legend, and sing—
Fairest of mortals, thou distinguish’d care
Of thousand bright Inhabitants of Air !
If e’er one vision touch’d thy infant thought
Of all the Nurse and all the Priest have taught
Of airy Elves by moonlight shadows seen,
The silver token and the circled green,
Of virgins visited by Angel powers,
With golden crowns and wreaths of heav’nly flow’rs
Hear and believe! thy own importance know,
Nor bound thy narrow views to things below.
Surely, Mr. John Ryder holds that acting cannot be taught;
and yet I cannot help thinking that it must be the sylphs and
elves of the Rosicrucian legend that taught Ellen Terry to be
so very fairylike in the gracefulness of her gesture and the
sweetness of her speech.
On Sunday the stage’of the Lyceum assumed the guise of
a splendid banqueting-hall, and Mr. Irving entertained nearly
« hundred of his friends at dinner. ‘The assembly was tho-
roughly representative of the ‘‘ Rank and Talent of the Time,”’
and there may be no indiscretion in recalling, among the
distinguished persons who were met to do honour to a typi-
cally English actor, the names of the Earl of Lytton, the
Lord Mayor, Sir John Whittaker Ellis, Admiral Carr-Glyn,
Jaron H. de Worms, M.P.; the Royal Academicians Alma
Tadema and W. O. Frith, Sir Julius Benedict, Mr. Edmund
Yates, Dr. W. H. Russell, Mr. Edward Lawson, Mr. Hardman,
Mr. Arthur Lewis, Mr. Pigott (the Licenser of Plays), Mr. Dion
Boucicault, Mr. Edward Dicey, Mr. J. M. Whistler, Sir John
Monckton, Dr. Quain, Mr. Escott, Mr. Edward Clarke, Q.C.,
M.P., Mr. H. Edwards, M.P., Mr. J. Hollingshead, Mr.
Clement Scott, Mr. Palgrave Simpson, Mr. Dutton Cooke, Mr.
Smalley, and Captain Richard Burton, the famous traveller.
So the painters, and the musicians, and the M.P.’s, the
managers, the men of letters, and the African explorers had,
emphatically speaking, ‘‘a good time’’ of it. The ‘flies’’
were masked by cunningly-disposed draperies; the ‘* wings ”’
were shut in by ingeniously-placed ‘flats; ’’ the proscenium
was divided from the auditorium by a beautiful screen of
greenery, through which could be faintly discerned the coloured
lamps, which, at intervals, marked the tiers of boxes, and
‘* through the house gave glimmering light; ’’ and an invisible
band of performers discoursed the strains of sweet but sub-
dued melody during the entertainment. The after-dinner
speaking was as good as the dinner itself: by which I mean
that both were superb. ‘The speech of Lord Lytton,
indeed, in proposing the health of the chairman, was
really a classical oration of the highest class—a master-
piece of elocution, elegant, eloquent, and graceful. Irving's
whole self spoke in his address in reply: it was replete
with the hearty, generous, earnest, poetic spirit of the man,
tender and touching, when he dwelt on the friends he had
mustered aroundhim; stern and aggressive only when he vindi-
cated the cause of the art which he loves so well, and of which
he is so consummate a professor. After him arose my Lord
Mayor; and right ably and cordially did the Right Honourable
Sir John Whittaker Ellis, Bart., cheeriest and most inde-
fatigable of modern Chief Magistrates, address himself to
speech. And then, it being close on the ’witching hour
of night, and unmindful of the poetical gent in the
World, who sneered at me because I deprecated the
keeping of late hours, I ‘‘went home to bed.” If you
had to rise at a quarter to eight every morning,
my poetical friend, and read seven daily papers while you
were having your breakfast, you also might recognise the ex-
pediency of going home to bed at a comparatively carly hour.
I venture to conjecture that the revels at the Lyceum were
prolonged until a rather late one. ‘There was a small crowd
gathered outside ; and under the portico of the theatre a worthy
gentleman in corduroy asked me ‘‘ Wot Toole and the Nobs
was adoin’ with Mr. Hirvinghinside?’’ 1 answered that they
were holding a Midnight Meeting. Ie rejoined that Toole
‘‘looked a sight too jolly for that.’”’ Upon which I hailed a
hansom cab; and my worthy, albeit unknown friend dis-
appeared into the Immensities.
I went on Monday to the Adelphi to sce the first perform-
ance, since his return to the country where he received so cordial
a welcome and such careful appreciation last year, of Mr.
Edwin Booth in Lord Lytton’s play of ‘* Richelieu.”” As I
hope to see Mr. Booth in many more characters, Shaksperean
and otherwise, before he returns to the States again, my notice
of him in the part originated by William Charles Macready
need not be very extended. Long ‘‘screeds”’ of prose have
appeared this week in some of the papers concerning this
particular performance; and one distinguished critic expresses
the opinion that Mr. Edwin Booth has considerably ‘‘improved’’
in his rendering of Richelieu since he was last among us. ‘To
my mind, the superb impersonation of Richelieu as I saw it
at the Princess’s, under the Walter Gooch management, was
scarcely susceptible of improvement; butit may be that the
distinguished critic did not study the Richelieu of 1881 quite so
attentively as he did the one of 1882. Asa matter of fact, the
gifted son of the English tragedian, Junius Brutus Booth,
who (Edwin) was born at Baltimore, in the State of Maryland,
in 1833, began his dramatic career in right earnest, in the
part of Richard III., in 1851. Richelieu was possibly one of
fis early assumptions; but, granting that he has been playing
it only for the lust fifteen or twenty years,he must have arrived
long ago at a settled conception of and insight into the cha-
racter, and determined in his mind on a definite standpoint. ‘The
only fault that I have ever been able to find in the Richelieu
of Mr. Edwin Booth is that he makes the terrible Armand Du
Plessis far too benevolent and humane a character. He is a
fatherto Julie de Mortemar ; he is the generous and placable
protector of Adrian de Mauprat ; he is the kindly patron of
Friar Joseph, and the munificent benefactor of the petit clere
Francois. ‘The Richelieu of history—the Richelieu who con-
solidated and maintained his power by drenching France with
the best blood of her nobles—the Richelieu who, when he
was dying of an agonising malady, caused the boat in which
was the captive Cinq Mars, himself also condemned to death,
to be towed after the barge containing the Cardinal and his
suite, descending the Rhone from Tidrason to Lyons—seems
to have been a wholly treacherous, cruel, and inexorable per-
sonage, whose only “* redeeming vices ”’ (asa late Prime Minister
might have said) were his insatiable vanity and his scandalous
that for the unhistorical view
profligacy. It may be urged
of Kichelieu presented in the drama, the dramatist and not
Mr. Booth should be held responsible; but my contention is
that the American tragedian’s kindly nature and sym-
pathetic temperament lead him to insist too strongly
ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS
on the lovable portion of the stage (not by any means
the real) Richelieuw’s character, and to bring out in higher
relief the Maecenas, the patron of merit, the beneficent
matchmaker, the reconciler of lovers’ quarrels, than he
gives to the fraud, the meanness, the duplicity, and the
bloodthirstiness of the unscrupulous intriguer who, at the age
of twenty-two, forged documents to show that he was twenty.
four, and, on the strength of a fictitious certificate, swindled
Paul V. out of a bishopric, and afterwards had the impudence
to ask the Pontiff for absolution for the lies which he had told.
“This young Bishop,’’? quoth Pope Paul, ‘is very clever, but
he will one day prove to be a great rascal.’? Now and again
Mr. Booth rises to the fullest height of the bad majesty which
undeniably formed part of Richelieu’s character, and his in-
vocation of the ‘*Curse of Rome’’ on the myrmidons of
Louis XIT1. was really terrible. In his elocution there was
surely no room for improvement. It is simply perfect
in its distinctness, its balance, and its euphony. The
softest whisper of this admirably scholar-like actor is as
audible as his loudest utterance. His byplay and facial
expression are wonderful illustrations of careful study of the
idiosyncrasies of such an aged statesman as Mr. Booth con-
ceives Richelieu to have been—merciless to his foes, but in his
private life, bounteous, amiable, and bon enfant. It is absurd
to speak of this admirable tragedian’s Richelieu as ‘‘con-
ventional.’? I can remember all the conspicuous Richelieus
since Macready’s time; and Mr. Booth’s does not, in the
slightest degree, resemble any Richelieu that I have seen. As
a player of Shaksperean parts he is indeed ‘‘ conventional ;’’
but only in so far as he adheres to the glorious and immu-
table conventions of classic elocution in the delivery of classical
blank verse.
Mr. Booth was creditably supported. Mr. Eben Plympton
(likewise from the United States, I surmise) was forcible, and
at times pathetic, as Adrian de Manprat. He was slightly
unequal, and manifestly nervous (this being his first appear-
ance in London); but he will improve, I doubt it not, on
acquaintance. Mr. E. H. Brooke was thoroughly satisfactory
as the unmitigated villain Baradas; and Mr. Lin Rayne
amusingly supple as Clermont. Mr. Robert Pateman was
duly stolid and as duly subservient as Friar Joseph ; and Mr.
William Yoynge showed boyish impetuosity as Francois,
although a little stronger physique would do his interpretation
of the part noharm. Miss Bella Pateman was a graceful,
dignified, and impassioned Julie de Mortemar; and the ex-
cellent presence and quict ease of Miss Ellen Meyrick lent
considerable interest to the normally unimportant part of
Marion de Lorme, who is described in the playbill as ‘‘ a spy
in Richelieu’s service.”? Marion was a great deal more than
a spy. G. A. 8.
MUSIC.
ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA,
The specialty of last week was the first performance this
season of Auber’s *‘ I'ra Diavolo,’’ with Madame Pauline Lucca,
as Zerlina, her charming impersonation of which character was
also a feature in former seasons; and it has lost none of its
excellence, as was proved on this recent occasion, when its
vocal and dramatic requirements were admirably realised. The
couplets, ‘‘ Quell’ uomo,’’ were given with true appreciation
of the terror inspired by the renown of the bandit chief; and the
coquettish music and action of Zerlina at her toilette-table, in
the bed-room scene, were charmingly rendered ; self-conscious-
ness and pert rusticity having been indicated without losing
sight of refinement and grace. M. Lestellier, as Fra Diavolo,
sang with much effect in the barcarolle, ‘‘ Agnese la Zitella’’
(which was encored), and in the scena in the last act in which
the attractions of a brigand’s life are narrated. Signor Scolara
as Lord Coburg, the English tourist, did not—as some repre-
sentatives of the part have done—err on the side of demen-
strative buffoonery ; Lady Coburg was rather too tamely
personified by Mdlle. Lonati, and the pair of bandits, Giacomo
and Beppo, were effectively impersonated by M. Dauphin and
Signor Guerini; the latter of whom, however, made his part
somewhat too much of a simpleton.
This week’s announcements have consisted of operas
recently given—the next specialty being the production, on
July 4, of M. Lenepveu’s ‘* Velleda,’’ with Madame Adelina
Patti in the principal character.
GERMAN OPERA.
The performances at Drury Lane Theatre ended yesterday
(Friday) evening with a repetition of ‘‘Die Meistersinger.”
The season began on May 18, and has been an active one,
having included the production of Wagner’s “ Lohengrin,’’
** Der Fliegende Hollander,”’ ‘‘ Tannhiuser,’’ ‘Die Meister-
singer,’’ and ‘Tristan und Isolde,”’ allforthe first time inGerman
in this country ; the two last for the first time on the stage here
in any shape. Beethoven’s ‘‘ Fidelio ’’ and Weber's ‘‘ Kury-
anthe’”’ have also been given, and more frequent repetitions of
these would have been welcome, in lieu of some of the Wagnerian
representations. In the later performances of ‘‘ Fidelio’’ the
character of Leonora was transferred to Friwein M. Brandt,
who was a very efficient representative thercof.
The excellence of the artists, the orchestra, and the chorus
has been recognised in noticing the various performances.
Herr Richter’s conducting, Herr Armbruster’s superintendence
of the chorus, and Herren Vranke’s and Pollini’s business
managément have been valuable features in the arrangements.
In next year’s repetition of the scheme it is to be hoped that
Wagner’s music may be somewhat more sparingly administered.
We referred last week briefly to the French Musical Festival
at the Royal Albert Hall. ‘The choral singing took place in the
large hall, the instrumental performances having been given
in the concert-rooms in the presence of the jurors. Seventy-
four societies, varying in number from sixteen to seventy
members, were accompanied by delegates from other societies,
making a total of neurly 2000 executants. Each society played
or sang two pieces of music chosen by the committee and one
iece of music selected by the society competing. ‘The jurors
included Sir J. Benedict, Sir H. Oakeley, Sir I’, Ouseley, Sir
R. Stewart, Mr. F. H. Cowen, M. Dubois, Signor Garcia, Mr.
W. Kuhe, Mr. H. Leslie, M. Lindheim, Signor Mattei, Mr.
Brinley Richards, Professor Wylde, and, many others. <A
concert in connection with the festival was given on ‘Tuesday
evening, supported by the principal artistes from the Grand
Opera and the Conservatoire de Paris and the various societies.
Comte d’Aunay, First Secretary of the French Embassy,
distributed the prizes and decorations on the second evening.
The symphony concerts at St. James’s Hall, conducted by
Mr. Charles Hallé, closed their season on Thursday week with
a performance of Beethoven’s great Mass (‘‘ Missa Solennis’’)
in D, previous to which his symphony in C minor was very
finely rendered. The mass was well given in most respects,
the soprano solos having been finely sung by Madame Albani,
with whom were associated Miss Orridge, Mr..W. Shakespeare,
and Mr. F. King. <A series of similar concerts is to be given
in the autumn, and another during next.April, May, and June.
, the house of Captain Costelloe, of Edmundstown, near Boyle,
Madame Christine Nilsson’s morning concert at St. James’s
Hall, yesterday (Friday) week, was successfulin an artistic
7
sense, and it is to be hoped also financially—the purpose
having been to aid the funds of the English Church in Paris
(Rue d’Aguesseau). ‘The concert-giver sang, with fine effect,
the Jewel song from ‘*Faust,’’ a Swedish national melody,
and in the duet ‘‘ La luna”’ (from ‘‘ Mefistofele ’’) associated
with Madame Trebelli, and in the ‘‘ Miserere’’ (from ‘Il
Trovatore’’) with Mr. Maas. Madame Trebelli and other
well-known artists contributed to the programme, which
included solos by M. Musin (violin) and Mr. Cusins (piano-
forte), and some clever performances by the ‘‘ Bijou Drawing-
room orchestra.”
Mr. Darcy Ferris gave (by permission of Lord and Lady
Edward Spencer Churchill) a matinée musicale at 24, Man-
chester-square on Saturday last; and the concert of Signor
Ria (vocalist) took place at the Marlborough Rooms in the
afternoon.
The ninth and last of the fifth series of Richter concerts
took place at St. James’s Hall on Monday evening, the climax
of the programme and of the season having been Beethoven's
choral symphony; the performance of which was admirable
in every respect ; the vocal solos having been finely rendered
by Frau Peschka-Leutner, Fraulein M. Brandt, Herr Winkel-
mann, and Herr Gura. Gade’s overture ‘‘Nachlinge von
Ossian’’ opened the concert, which also included Mr. Dann-
reuther’s skilful execution of Liszt’s second pianoforte concerto
(in A). Herr Richter conducted with his well-known skill, and
was enthusiastically received. The resumption of these con-
certs next year will be looked for with much interest.
Friulein M. Fissler (violinist), and Friulein E. Fissler
(pianiste), gave a concert on Monday evening at the Royal
Academy of Music.
Mr. Charles Hallé completed his series of eight chamber-
music concerts at the Grosvenor Gallery on Wednesday after-
noon with an interesting selection, including Beethoven’s
great Pianoforte Trio in B flat, Schubert’s Solo Fantasia in C,
and other classical pieces.
Miss Alice Sydney Burvett, the Australian pianiste, gave a
concert at St. James’s Hall on Wednesday evening ; and Herr
Lehmeyer gave his sccond pianoforte recital at St. James’s
Hall new room the same evening. Madame Dukas gave an
evening concert at Steinway Hall on Thursday; and Mr.
Harvey Lohr (pianist) gave an evening concert at the Royal
Academy of Music on that evening.
The second of this year’s series of subscription concerts of
Madame Sainton-Dolby’s Vocal Academy took place at Stein-
way Hall on Thursday afternoon, the programme having con-
sisted of a varied selection of vocal music, sacred and secular.
Of the second of this season's concerts of the London
Musical Society, at St. James's Hall on Thursday evening, we
must speak next week. The programme included Hof-
mann’s dramatic cantata, ‘‘ Cinderelia,”’ and other interesting
features.
Attractive concerts are announced for this (Satityday) after-
noon at the Royal Aibert Hall and the Floral’ Hall; the
former including performances by Madame Christine Nilsson
and other eminent vocalists, the latter being supported by the
principal artists of the Royal Italian Opera.
Joachim Raff—whose death recently occurred at Frank-
fort—was one of the most remarkable musicians of the day,
his numerous compositions including works in almost every
form, some of which—especially his ten symphonies—are of
great excellence.
Madame Christine Nilsson has recently signed a contract
with Mr. Henry E. Abbey for a concert tour in the United
States and Canada. ‘The prima donna will sail for America
early in October, and will make her first appearance in Boston,
Massachusetts, about Nov. 1 next. Madame Nilsson is now on
a visit to their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of
Albany at Claremont.
The arrangements for the triennial musical festival at
Bristol in October next are now nearly completed. The choir
has been considerably recruited since the last festival, and
working hard in the preparation of Beethoven’s Massin D. ‘Vhe
committee have determined also to produce Gounod’s “ Re-
demption,”’ the oratorio written expressly for the forthcoming
Birmingham Festival in August. Another novelty will be
** Jason and Medea,’’ a work which Mr. Mackenzie (the com-
oer Of a cantata performed at the last Worcester Festival)
ias been commissioned to write for the Bristol Festival Society.
Rossini’s ‘* Moses in Egypt,’’ ‘‘ The Messiah,’’? and “ Elijah ”’
will be included in the programme, with Haydn’s ‘ Spring ”’
(from his ‘‘ Creation’’), and Dr. Wesley’s ‘‘ Praise of Music,”’
and other works. Mr. Charles Hallé’s band has again been
engaged, and Mr. Hallé will conduct, as before. ‘The festival
committee have already secured the services of Mesdames
Albani, Patey, and Trebelli, Mr. Maas, Mr. Santley, Mr. E.
Lloyd, and Mr. Hilton. An engagement has been offered to
Madame Nilsson.
At a congregation held yester.lay week at Cambridge (the
last of the term), the application from University College,
Nottingham, for affiliation to the University was agreed to.
Some regulations for the inner management of the University
were also adopted. ,
In London last week 2398 births and 1387 deaths were
registered. ‘The deaths included 9 from smallpox, 62 from
measles, 36 from scarlet fever, 19 from diphtheria, 85 from
whooping-cough, 1 from typhus fever, 7 from enteric fever,
2 from ill-defined forms of continued fever, 32 from diarrhwa
and dysentery, 2 from simple cholera. In Greater London,
3018 births and 1658 deaths were registered.
Old Boys’ Day was celebrated this year at Blundell's
School, Tiverton, at the new school buildings which have
lately been completed. The Bishop of Exeter, himself an old
Blundellian, preached the anniversary sermon at St. Peter’s
Church yesterday week, and presided at the annual dinner, at
which upwards of sixty old boys were present. Last Saturday
was speech day at Blundell’s School, and the Earl of Devon
distributed the prizes, congratulating the school on the good
work that it was doing, as shown by the list of honours gained
in the past year.
Earl Spencer, replying to an address presented to him
by the Irish Presbyterian body, said that hopeful signs of
returning confidence were showing themselves among, those
connected with the material interests of Ivelund, and he ex-
pressed his conviction that in the struggle which was ‘being
waged the cause of law and order would ultimately preyail.—
Several serious outrages are reported from Ireland. “A bhiliff’s
house has been set on fire after his daughter had been
attacked and left insensible; a constabulary pensiontr has
been shot, and is not expected to recover; a farmer, returning
from a fair, has been shot, but not very seriously injured; a
bailiff in charge of a farm has been dragged out and shot in
the legs; and a daring raid for arms ‘is reported: On Ménday,
a band of men undisguised, and carrying revolvers, entered
and, having shot a bull-dog, and tied the servants with ropes,
carried off all the arms they could find.

the restless Earl of Carnarvon and Earl Cadogan, evidently
smilingly scented the battle from afar. The radiant leaders
of the Opposition had, in other words, zestfully prepared for a
bout at the relishable game of Granville-baiting. Their quarry
did not appear on the scene early. When the Foreign Secre-
tary did drop into his seat, Lord Salisbnry incisively began
the game with a question as to whether the Conference
would be held in Constantinople notwithstanding the
Sultan’s express antagonism to the mecting. Karl Gran-
ville’s reply that, in entering the Conference the Govern-
ment were acting in unison with the other Great Powers,
brought down upon his Lordship a bitter little speech from
the noble Marquis, who pungently asked what this country
would think were the Sultan, in opposition to the wishes of
the Queen, to summon a Conference in London on the con-
dition of Ireland. In lieu of an answer in an injured tone
that he really would not argue with the Marquis of Salisbury
at this crisis, Lord Granville might, perhups, have been ready
with one or two of the rhetorical arrows he would do well to
keep sharpened in his quiver for his formidable assailant.
Though questions on Egypt are ceaselessly rained upon
Ministers, it is plain from the answers in both Houses that the
Government confidently rely upon their ability when the time
comes successfully to defend their policy ‘‘ asa whole.’? Earl
Granville and Sir Charles Dilke, deprecating piecemeal dis-
cussion, firmly took their stand on this ground last Monday.
Whilst the buzzing flies of the House of Commons continue to
put questions of more or less interest regarding the Con-
ference, Egypt, and the Suez Canal, it is more important to
the public to know there is every indication that the Govern-
ment are keenly alive to the necessity of being ready at any
moment to land an adequate force to serve in Egypt as the
Police of Europe. Mr. Childers, on Monday, in the interests
of the public service, was bound not to satisfy Sir Wilfrid
Lawson’s curiosity as to whether troop-ships were being
rapidly got ready at Portsmouth and Chatham. For the
sine reason would Sir Charles Dilke on Tuesday not answer
Mr. Ashmead Bartlett’s inquiry as to the reported military
preparations in France. Meanwhile, we do know that Admiral
Sir Beauchamp Seymour’s fleet has been strengthened before
Alexandria, and that the rumoured disasters to the Alexandra
and the Monarch were (on the authority of Sir TI. Brassey)
‘‘entirely without foundation.”
The questions dealt with in the Upper House, other than
that of Egypt, have been few. Lord Waveney’s motion
yesterday week for a Royal Commission to inquire into the
condition of Munster and Connaught was neatly waved
aside by Lord Carlingford, who on this and on previous
oceasions has displayed a small degree of quiet,
but none the less effective, humour in debate, a The elections to the Legislature of New Brunswick were
rarity more agreeably remembered than Lord Brabourne’s
surprising acerbity in attacking the Government which ob-
tained for him a peerage. Safer on the southern shores of the
Mediterranean than on the banks of the Nile, Karl Granville
on Monday was enabled to assure Lords Stratheden and Camp-
bell that Tunis was now in a more satisfactory condition.
The same evening, Lord Carlingford had no difficulty in pro-
viding the Earl ot Galloway with reasons why the contem-
plated measure for the Amendment of the Irish Land Act
should not be first introduced into their Lordship’s House.
The Earl of Redesdale has dextrously managed between
these varied discussions, to advance several minor bills a stage.
But still their Lordships hunger for the solid food which is so
long coming from the Lower House.
The passage of the Irish Repression of Crime Bill through
Committee in the House of Commons is still contested,
foot by foot. The most important amendment was adopted
during the sitting of June 22, when the amended Arrears Bill
was also formally reported. Mr. Morgan Lloyd was the
author of this amendment, which sought to extend the
operation of the Alien clause to Great Britain, and which, in,
the face of a mild plea for delay from Mr, Gladstone, was
sanctioned by 238 votes against 51. The following night,
after Mr. Bright had eloquently censured Mr. Healy and Mr.
'T. P. O'Connor for taking part in the treasonable Fenian Con-
vention at Chicago—a deserved rebuke which only drew forth
a few personalities from Mr. Healy—Clauses 12 and 13 were
carried by considerable majorities. Left mainly to the con-
s derate conduct of Mr. Trevelyan and the Attorney-General
tor Ireland, the stern measure was on ‘luesday pushed forward
yet a few steps further.
Mr. Chamberlain made a curious revelation on Monday.
The President of the Board of Trade informed Mr. Bromley
Davenport thatthe railway company engaged in boring a tunnel
under the English Channel persisted in their work, despite the
repeated orders from the Government to discontinue the
works. Under these circumstances, the law officers of the
Crown had been consulted with a view to insure an inspection
of the boring by the Board of Trade.
Mr. Bradlaugh, determined not to be effaced or ignored in
the House to which Northampton has twice returned him,
still looms before hon. members now and then to remind
them of another trouble in store. His strategic movement on
‘Thursday week, when he advanced to the table to present a
petition, was of no use, the Speaker reminding him that he
had no right to claim this privilege.
An anomaly ! The wisdom of adopting Sir Rowland Hill’s
penny-postage scheme is 80 generally recognised that H.R.H.
the Prince of Wales the other day proceeded to the City to
unveil a public statue of this reformer. Applying the same
principle to Postal Telegrams, Dr. Cameron on Monday made
the very reasonable proposition that the price of a telegraphic
message should be reduced from one shilling to sixpence, Mr.
Fawcett, in the language of the opponents of the penny post,
suid he could not spare the revenue; and was supported by
Mr. Gladstone. Dr. Cameron’s resolution was, accordingly,
rejected by the obedient Ministerial majority by 148 against
I7 votes.

from that Constitution, under which the people had lived in

steamer, in accordance with contract, has this week been

Mr. Royal Normal College and Musical Academy for the Blind at
Upper Norwood gave a vocal and instrumental concert at

A fancy fair, in aid of the fund for completing the restora-
tion of St. John’s Church, Whetstone, was held in the grounds
of Mr. Passmore, Woodside House, the last three days of this
week. Lady George Hamilton opened it on Thursday; and
among the numerous attractions was a Japanese entertain-
ment, given by Mr. A. Batson Joyner.
An Exhibition of Plants, Flowers, Fruit, Antiquities, and
Fine Arts will be held at Wolvesey Palace, Winchester, next
Thursday, July 6, in aid of the Winchester Ladies’ Association
for the Care of Friendless Girls, of the Diocesan Training
Home, in connection with this work; and of the fund for the
restoration of Sparsholt church. There is a long list of
influential lady patronesses.
The Ven. Alfred Blomfield, D.D., late Archdeacon of
Essex, was on Saturday last, in St. Alban’s Abbey, consecrated
Bishop Suffragan of St. Alban’s, with the title of Bishop
of Colchester. The Archbishop of Canterbury officiated,
and was assisted by the Bishops of St. Alban’s, London, Ely,
and Bedford. Upwardsof a hundred clergy of the diocese and
a large congregation witnessed the ceremony.
Town Council of St. Alban’s also attended.
The Archbishop of Canterbury presided
week at the annual meeting of the National Society for Pro-
moting the Education of the Poor in the principles of the
Established Church. The meeting was influentially attended,
and the report showed a considerable increase for the year in
the attendance at Church schools. The report was adopted,
and resolutions approving the work of the society were unani-
mously agreed to.
Through the kindness of Lord and Lady Brabazon, the
churchyard of St. Mary’s, the parish church of the most
densely populated district in Haggerstun,
formed from a neglected and unsightly wilderness of dilapi-
dated graves, broken gravestones, and straggling tufts of
coarse grass, into a fresh and pretty garden, to be open for the
recreation and enjoyment of the public. The inauguration of
what is a veritable oasis in a dreary surrounding of crowded
dwellings of poor people took place last Saturday afternoon.
Mr. Charles Evans, of Warwick-street,
is commissioned to execute two large painted windows for the
Church of St. James, Clerkenwell, the gift of the Crusaders’
Lodge of Freemasons, to commemorate the restoration of this
their parish church.—A three-light aisle window of the parish
church at Haworth, Yorkshire, has been filled with stained
glass at the cost of Mrs. Eliza Anderton, of Bradford, as a
memorial of that lady’s parents, Mr. William Townend, of
Cuilingworth, and Mary Ann, his wife. It is from the
studio of Messrs. Powell Bros., Leeds.—An effective two-light
Munich window, by Messrs. Mayer and Co., has been placed
in St. Mary’s Church, the Boltons, Kensington.
The annual meeting of the Additional Curates Society was
held on Thursday week in the Jerusalem Chamber, under the
presidency of the Archbishop of York. The work of the
society was attended with considerable success during the year,
but there is still great need for more men. Although the
society is now maiutaining over 600 additional ministers in
poor and populous parishes, they have still 400 parishes wait-
ing almost hopelessly for the aid which they greatly need.
is estimated that £20,(0) more is required to meet the present
applications. ‘lhe Arclibishop of York, in his opening address,

The annual meeting in connection with the Universities’
Mission to Central Africa was held in Willis’s Rooms yesterday
week —the Bishop of London presiding. The mission was set
on foot in 1359, at the instigation of Dr. Livingstone,
looks chiefly to the Universitivs for its supply of clergy. At
the present time it has three great centres of operation—
Zanzibar, the Usambera country north of Zanzibar, and the
2ovuma district—and altogether about 1000
und: +r its care. The income for the mission tor 1831 was
£11,000. There are employed thirty-four European mis-
of age. He was educated at the Merchant Company’s School in the
city of Edinburgh, and obtained the Fergusson Scholarship, which 1s open
to all the Universities of Scotland, and in April, 1879, he graduated first-class
in mathematical honours. He obtained an open scholarship upon beginning
resijence at Jesus College, and has taken prizes at each of the annual
examinations. Gis private tutor was Mr. J. Routh.
The Moderators and Examiners publish the following list
of female students who have obtained honours :—
Wranglers—None.
Senior Optimes—Meyer, Girton, equal to 81; Anelay,
between 37 and 38.
Junior Optimes—None.
BENEVOLENCE AND SELF-HELP.
Numerous meetings for charitable purposes were held last
week, besides those announced in our preceding issue. We
append the principal ones :—
Under the auspices of the Women’s Emigration Society, a
temporary home, or dépdt, was opened in Dorset-street,
Portman-square, by Princess Mary, Duchess of Teck. The
object of the society is to facilitate the emigration of English-
The Mayor and women of all classes to the colonies.
A bazaar in aid of the Princess Louise Home was opened
on Wednesday by the Lady Mayoress at the Duke of Wellington’s Riding
School, under distinguished patronage.
The 144th anniversary festival of the Royal Society of
Musicians was held in St. James’s Hall, the Rev. Lord O’ Neill
presiding. The company was large and representative.
Dr. Andrew Clark presided at the annual festival on behalf
of the East London Hospital for Children at Willis’s Roems.
He warmly advocated the cause of the hospital; and Cardinal
Manning, who proposed one of the toasts, remarked that
more than 100,000 little sufferers had obtained relief in the
has been trans- hospital since its establishment. Subscriptions were announced
amounting to over £2000.
The annual festival of the Stockwell Orphanage, which
affords a home to some 50 fatherless children, was held
in the grounds of the orphanage at Stockwell.
band and speeches by Mr. C. H. Spurgeon and others, pro-
cessions of the children and interesting ceremonies in con-
Regent-street, nection with the opening of a wing of the infirmary, as well
as a new play-hall and swimming bath, were the principal
features of the programme. The subscriptions amounted, after
deducting all expenses, to more than £1000.—A strawberry
tea to the boys and girls from this orphanage was given on
Thursday, at the Horse Shoe Iron Wharf, Malt-street, Old
Kent-road.
Mr. Henry Varley presided at the annual gathering and
distribution of prizes in connection with the Female Servants’
Home Society in Exeter Hall. The society is one which pro-
vides a shelter for female servants while out uf situations in
London. The annual report set forth that during the year
1298 young women had entered the Homes. There were more
claimants for rewards during the past year than in any pre-
vious one, as many as ninety-seven receiving gifts, six silver
and one gold medal being included.
The annual general meeting of the members and friends of
the Railway Benevolent Institution was held ‘at the City
Terminus Hotel —Mr. Henry Oakley in the chair. The report
It for the past year was satisfactory, and showed that the
receipts had been £41,260, and the expenditure £15,989. With
the report was presented-a statement giving particulars of
2294 cases relieved out of the casualty fund between Nov. 16,
1880, and Nov. 16, 1881. A list of twenty-four widows, six
members to whom it was proposed to grant pensions, and
twelve children proposed for admission to the orphanage
in the officers’ department, and nine widows and pensions in
the servants’ department, was presented and unanimously
and adopted. The chairman said the year had been a very suc-
cessful one, and they had received a large number of sub-
stantial legacies, amounting to £11,909, and were advised of
anotherof about £2000. They had also received some good
natives are now sums from railway companies, and had practically received
£12,800 more this, year than laxt, and would be able to main-
tain 120 children in the Derby Orphanage for the future.
receive donations.—An appeul is also made for funds to take t
for their annual excursion the children attending North-
street Sunday School (Kennington-road), which is not con-
nected with any place of worship, and is unsectarian. As
showing that many of these children would never see the
country were it not for these ‘‘ treats,’* it may be mentioned
that one of the scholars on seeing a haystack said, ‘‘ Does it
grow like that, teacher?’’ Donations will be received by Mr.
J., Girton, G. R. Neilson, 6a, Mostyn-road, Brixton-road, S.
Over £3000 was cleared, after all expenses had been de-
ducted, at the bazaar in aid of distressed Irish ladies, held on
June 15 and 16 in the conservatory of the Horticultural
Gardens for the sale of work done by Irish ladies who, through
the present state of Ireland, are in great distress. All the
money taken for the goods worked by the distressed Irish
ladies will be paid to them for each piece of work, according
to the price each piece of work realised. The remainder of the
pe total will be added to the fund in aid of Distressed Irish
ies.
_ A Lilliputian fancy fair was opened yesterday, and con-
tinued to-day (Saturday), at the Duke of Wellington's Riding
School, Knightsbridge, the object of which is to raise £1000
for the purpose of endowing acot in the Cheyne-walk Hospital
for Sick and Incurable Children. Princess Louise (Marchioness
of Lorne), the Duchess of Albany, Princess Mary Adelaide
(Duchess of Teck), and others are patrons of the movement.
Last Saturday the Archbishop of York presided at the prize
distribution in connection with the Commercial Travellers’
School at Pinner. Mrs. Moore, widow of Mr. George Moore
distributed the prizes. Sir Wilfrid Lawson, M.P., took the
chair at the subsequent luncheon, at which Mr. 8. Morley
M.P., and Mr. Wills, M.P., were amongst the speakers. j
The Duke of Albany presided last Saturday at the Press
Fund Dinner. In dwelling on the growing power of the Press
his Royal Highness urged the claims of the tund to support.
The speakers included Sir Evelyn Wood and Lord Houghton.
Subscriptions amounting to nearly twelve hundred pounds
Music by the were announced, the Duke contributing £25.
The fifty-fifth anniversary festival of the Infant Orphan
Asylum, Wanstead, was held last Saturday at the asylum.
In the absence, through indisposition, of the Duke of Con-
naught, who had consented to preside, Viscount Enfield acted
as chairman, and Lady Enfield distributed prizes and toys
to the children. A list of subscriptions and donations was
read by the secretary, amounting to £1200, including donations
from the Queen and members of the Koyal family. ,
To-day (Saturday) Mr. Alderman Knight presides at the
public examination and distribution of prizes to the Ware-
housemen and C,erks’ Schools, near Croydon; and the Print-
ing- Machine Managers take their annual excursion to Hastings
in aid of their superannuation fund.
An industrial exhibition for the P Bromley subdivision of
the police force, railway men and their families, also for the
inhabitants of Bromley Valley and Shortlands, will be opened

Room, close to Shortlands Station of the Loudon, Chatham
and Dover Railway. : :
The Duke of Cambridge will distribute the prizes to
students of the London Hospital Medical Pallegt om San

From the ninth annual report of the London Temperance
Hospital, Hampstead-road, it appears that since the opening
of the hospital, Oct. 6, 1873, 1354 in-patients have been treated
of whom 749 were dismissed cured. ‘The deaths were 61. The
out-patients treated have been 10,678. The new buildings runs
opened by the Lord Mayor in March, 1881, afford accommo- trout
dation for 51 in-patients, and the number of these treated in

 JULY 1, 1882 THE
SWEET SUMMER-TIME.
With the month of July, and its scent of roses,
we come
again to sweet summer-time: and for a short sojourn in the
country there is no time like it ; especially when you can dwell
with homely people at some farmhouse where form gives place
to warmest hospitality. Such happy fate is ours, when we
can change the noise und dust of town for calm and quiet,
its dull and denser air for pure brisk breezes, its streets for
sylvan scenes and dewy lanes; where thatched white cottages
with fragrant gardens, hedged in with sweetbriar or honey-
suckle, give us a glimpse of some old-fashioned flowers—lark-
spurs and lupins, candytuft and pinks, pansies and cabbage-
roses—all tangled up together; with tall sunflowers and bee-
hives to back them.
_ That word, ‘‘roses,”’ brings most pleasant thoughts. Sweet
tints around, sweet odours in the air, from where they cluster
on the garden walls, or climb high up to casemerts at
cosy houses well shut in by trees and cool green leafage;
where softest, richest, daintiest of blooms are gathered by fond
fingers tenderly — blossoms that, as you think of them, recal
to mind their sisters in the woods whose paler petals fall
where song-birds sing. That thought brings foxglove-bells
and wild-rose hedges, wild vetch and briony, wild hop and
bearbine; and grass knee-high and ankle-dvep in flowers, and
bees and butterflies and unfolding ferns; the sound of mowers
and the smell of hay, and all those country scenes that month
is full of. The thymy hills and golden gorsy commons, the
charm of sunlight when we are in the shade, the hum of insect-
life, the boom of bees, the listless lying under leafy boughs,
with half closed book or quite-neglected paper, till roused by
bleatings where the shearers are, or noise of timber-haulers in
the wocds. Such thoughts are July thoughts, and are all
most pleasant ones. ‘ On the Horse Guards’ Parade the 2nd City of London Rifle
Pleasant, too, we find it, in sweet summer-time, to get
up early; to be up and out, and all about the buildings, to
look the horses over and see the cows—Pansy and Tiny,
Pretty-maid and Daisy, Fill-pail, and Spot and Polly —good-
coloured ones, and also famous milkers; or to the fowl-house
to inspect the fowls, and on into the paddock to the calves,
as the mist, so smoke-like, rising from the meadows, floats
slowly upwards, over the soft blue haze of carly morning.
Then, round through the shrubbery, where birds build freely,
and back across the lawn, to see the pigeons and to pet the
fantuils. ‘And so to breakfast’’—as old Pepys would say—
for vigorous onslauglit on good things provided -pure milk and
new-laid eggs and clotted cream, and juicy home-cured hams
and hissing rashers, and come-and-cut-again sirloins or ribs—
good farmhouse fare—contrasting with our hasty meal in
town to catch the train for business. We know then the
joy of getting up so soon, and wish we could often
do it; but no one in the country can lie late, for the birds
there beat town-sparrows, they are so early. First, the
cuckoo, who calls you, continues his harsh shrill ery, till he
wakes up the swallows under the eaves of the hop-kilns; then,
as they cease their twitterings, the blackbirds begin, and rouse
the sparrows, who rustle forth out of the ivy, to wrangle and
scuffle and quarrel; the starlings and finches, the black-caps
and linnets, having next to them their say in the matter, till
joined by the robins, should rain be at hand. So that, what
with the birds singing loudly, and the sun shining brightly—
for our room in that old house faces east—we find the best
thing we can do on a hot summer morning is to turn out as
soon as We can.
This, too, have we to do, to save a scolding from those rosy
girls, our country cousins, who are down sometimes before us;
seeing to rolls of butter and cans of milk, in that clean and
spotless dairy, where you get nice colour from the pans and
bowls—primrose and stone-tint, purply-red and cream. No
roam about the buildings is there then for us, as we have to
go with them to get the sweet scent of the roses, and to inhale
the fresh smell of the mould, as we stay awhile talking to the
chatty old gardener, who is at work where the thrushes are
by him. Then up the stone steps to the walled kitchen-
garden, where quaint yew arbours and broad turf-walks—
under the boughs of a long nut-grove—suggest, but too often,
fond tales of love. There we usually stroll about, and feast
on ripe strawberries, wet with dew; then, on through the
orchard by it, to where we look down far below on the fold.
And, as we come to a stand there under the trees, to pick
the cherries and disturb the jays, we hear the lowing of cows
and the clucking of fowls, the neighing of colts and the
stamps in the stable; the clink of the gears, the bark of
the dog, and the laughs of the lads as they race round the
rick-yard. ‘Then, out by the white gate we go to where the
geese in the pool are so busily splashing —to watch the starlings
teeding their dusky broods in the walnut-trees above us; the
cawing of the rooks and the cooing of the doves coming to us
with the tinkle of the bell in the pasture; whilst if it
happens that the mowers are then in the meadows, we also
hear the brisk whetting of scythes, and the voices of women
and girls; and perhaps the old farmer’s loud call to his dogs,
as they scamper about in the hay. These are thoroughly
country sounds, and on that score doubly welcome.
But the whole of each day, in that sweet summer-time,
brings with it a sense of freedom; as after breakfast, sketch-
book in hand—joyful change from our town routine !—we
usually set off at once for the village, so picturesque is the
place; for it lies low in the valley, and is hemmed in by
hills, and surrounded by covers and copses; while orchards and
hawthorns, and garden-growths, so screen it you come upon
it at once, thus making it all the nicer. ‘The way, too, drops
suddenly into it, between banks that are tangled with brambles
and gorse, and at foot clothed with foxgloves and ferns; where
the rabbits that burrow there linger and look, and even the
birds sing un, as you make your way down the hill to the old
grey church, where bees busily hum in the limes—a church,
that has well-worn steps down to it, and is heavily hung with
ivy. ‘There we always linger; as groups of youngsters are
sure to be about the porch, the lich-gate, or mounting-block,
thus giving us famous studies; whilst turther on, at the village
spring, we know we shall do still better; as there the tan-
faced, buxom girls will pause most gladly as they poise their
cans, if they see we want to sketch them. The village itself
consists of a narrow street, of half-timbered houses with
bulging fronts and roofs all mossed and lichened ; where are
rusty stocks and a disused pound, and high signs with horse-
troughs by them; a green, as you enter it, giving a home to
the geese, the ducks, and donkeys. It at all times wears an
old-world look, and so primitive are its ways that you think
the folk there must have all stood still for at least thejlast
hundred years. ; ,
The way out of it leads to some wooded hills, and across it
runs a brook, that flows through the meadows and brings
trout with it, from under the stones in the dingles, where the
light is as twilight, at even noon-day, so dense and thickset
is the leafage ; and when, in the summer, it is but a shallow
one you can see, as you stand on the side footbridge, the
speckled ones down below you — provided the children, playin
truant from school, are not paddling there or playing. We
often go on to those wooded hills, or loiter aboutin the dingles ;
or, if out forthe day, prolong our walk afew milestosome distant

hamlet. But if, leaving the road, we turn short down ‘‘ the
watery lane,’’ by the high footpath on the bank above it, we
find, as we go by the side of the brook, that it is not without
ripple and tinkle, too, which are only lost at flood-time, or when
the sqnire’s fine team, with their jingling be 1s, comes merrily
splashing through it. Beside the pathway, here and there,
are scattered cottages—with gardens by them—closed in by
elders and mossed old palings—where dames, if they hear
you, soon appear amongst their wilderness of sprays and
blossoms, hoping to snip you something, just for gossip;
when, should you chance to ‘‘ put them in a picture,’’ you
win their hearts at once. But the best of all is up at the
end there, where the lane goes off to the woods above it,
as it is there that the orchards are thicker and the fruit
is of the finest; and, when the trees are heaped over with
their red and white bloom, the tints you see then are remem-
bered. The lane—shut in with broom-bushes and wild-rose
sprays—is in itself, too, a most pleasant place to linger in,
as it is massed with large herbage and flowers and ferns,
where tall elms tower, and old oaks throw their gnarled arms
down across it; while shimmering leaves from ua backing of
ash and hazel, keep up an incessant rustle; a place of welcome
shade and softened light, and a haunt of frisking squirrels.
Crossing the stepping-stones that are put for the people
to get through the railings that fence the field, we follow
the path to the fishing-ford, and then go on by the river;
and this was the route that we often took, for the sake of
its frequent twist, as we got with each curve some marked
change of view, and with it much change of colour. We at
times got useful models, too—shock-headed youngsters, rough
and rosy—as at the end of the meadow, close by the road, was
a deep back-water, dry in the summer and greened with rushes,
which served as a snug play-place for children who chased
the butterflies and hid about, till the old bridge echoed
their shouts and laughter. There we turn for home, past the
black mill-wheel, where the foaming water eddies away past
the burdock-beds, to flow glassily further on, over the re-
flected boughs of the hanging trees and the white undersides
of the willows; our road thence lying through a few short
fields, where the smell of the blossomed beans blends with the
scent of the meadow-sweet.
Thus pleasantly passes each morning there, when we are
far away from the city, diversified often by a ride with the
girls, whose dearest delight is a gallop; while after dinner
we fill the time with tennis and music, and maybe a few
songs, till five o’clock brings the tea. ‘Then comes the ramble
on the hills, amongst harebells and heather, till it is time
to return through the dusky glades, where we wish that
the nightingales still were singing; when, as the glowworms
show and the bats come out, and the owls in the woods are
hooting, we get back in good time to the farm again as the
moon is slowly rising. Blissful to us are such days as these,
out in the open air! . purpose.
Pleasant, too, it is then to so rest our eyes on greens, in
masses; to see but th n blue smoke, just here and there, and
get such sense of solitude and distance, as we lie about the
hills and look straight out; the only sounds, perchance, being
rustling leaves or bell-notes by the water. Good isit, also, to sit
at times and think, by brambled rills that ripple through the
woods, while birds about us, with a half-hushed melody, sing
in the boughs close by; and gladsome at evening, as the rooks
come home, are those sounds that tell us the day’s work
is over. Welcome is that sweet sense of rest; welcome,
those simple country pleasures, as they bring us, when else-
where, happy recollections and joyful memories of sweet
summer-time. Snuetstey Beaucuamp.
STREET NOISES.
The Englishman is a long-suffering animal. He bears much
and grumbles little, and when things come to the worst is
satisfied with grumbling. He even derives pleasure from a
grievance, if it be due, or he thinks it due, to the liberty of
which his countrymen are proud. And yct how much happier
life would be if this freedom were a little restricted. It may
be well, for instance, that there should be men and women
blessed with Billingsgate lungs; but the sound of their sweet
voices ‘‘ascending the sky’ in the so-called quiet streets of
our London suburbs can scarcely be said, in the words of the
poet, ‘‘to inspire heavenly joys.’’ On the contrary, a feeling
very earthly and, perhaps, a little naughty, is raised even in
the most Christian breast by these harsh and coarse-grained
sounds. Vendors of fruit and flowers, of milk and muffins are
not agreeable visitors when they roar for a living, and the poor
organ-grinder little knows, let us hope, the anguish he inflicts
upon sensitive nerves.
The profits and loss in this matter are not fairly appor-
tioned. A street crier, let us say, gains a few additional pence
daily in consequenceof rending the heavens with his stentorian
throat, and these pence mean pots of public-house beer. ‘This
is the gain on the huckster’s side, if gain it can be called. On
the other hand, his noises inflict a distinct injury—irreparable
in some cases—on all men and women devoted to study or art,
on sick people, on people with nerves overwrought, on all who
have music in their souls, and hate a discord as they hate
poverty and pain. There are other sounds permitted, no
doubt, by authority, which are almost as intolerable as the
yells of costermongers and the squeal of barrel-organs. A fore, to be abandoned.
merry peal of church bells exhilarates, but a cracked bell
tolling at all hours is apt to drive a man from church instead
of drawing him thither. Punch and Judy is a street sight not
to be despised, but this noisy show is scarcely one to be praved
for when quict is a necessity of life. Worse than any of these
noises —worse, perhaps, than all of them together—is the
whining sing-song of beggars, who beg by means of what they
call singing, and do so with a laborious prolixity that deprives
the tortured listeners of hope.
Civilisation no doubt brings many blessings in its train,
but they are for the most part noisy blessings—witness our
factories and steam-engines —and yet, considering how men’s
minds are strained in the conflict of life, there never was a
time when quict surroundings were more needful. It is not
so much the steady roar of a great city that distracts the mind;
like the sound of waters that may even be soothing, it is
the coarse and grating shrieks of the costcrmonger, the
painful tunes of the organ-grinder, the shrill notes of
the street singer, that make the suburban resident sigh like
Cowper ‘‘ for a lodge in some vast wilderness.”? Is there no
remedy for an evil which in a measure spoilt the temper of
Babbage, enhanced the dyspeptic miseries of Carlyle, and
tortured John Leech? One suggestion occurs. The man who
will cry turnips or strawberries ten years hence, is now a boy
at a Board School. What a comfort it would be to folk with
nerves if he could be trained for his profession. If this is
impossible, and he cannot be taught to ‘‘ roar as gently as
any sucking-dove,’’ might not the exercise of the coster-
monger’s vocation be limited to certain hours of the day.
Publicans are kept within bounds ; why should costermongers
enjoy the liberty, which is license, of tormenting peaceful
citizens to the utmost of their power? Sir Thomas Browne
found a charin in strect music, and there are people who can
19
listen calmly to a barrel organ ; but neither Sir Thomas Browne,
nor any one whose ear has been trained to love harmonious
sounds, has ever had a word to say in favour of the street crics
of London.
THE VOLUNTEERS. .
Nearly 9000 of the Volunteers in Major-General Higginson’s
Home District command underwent the annual Government
inspection last Saturday.
The London Rifle Volunteer Brigade was inspected by the
Duke of Cambridge on the Guards’ ground in Hyde Park. The
brigade was formed in line facing Park-lane, at half-past five,
under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Lord E. P. Clinton,
the parade state showing a total attendance of about 6V0 of all
ranks. ‘The usual inspection of the line was followed bya
march past in open and quarter column and at the double.
Colonel Lord E. P. Clinton then put the regiment through a
long series of movements, which were followed up and closely
watched by the Duke of Cambridge, who expressed himself
well pleased with the drill and smart bearing of officers and
men. ‘lhe inspection, which lasted about an hour, closed with
an advance in review orderand Royal salute. The ground was
kept by the Ist Life Guards.
The 38rd Middiesex Artillery Brigade was inspected at
Wellington Barracks, by Colonel Buaylay, R.A. Lieut.-
Colonel Lord Truro was in command, and the attendance
numbered nearly 800 of all ranks.
The 2nd Tower Hamlets Engineers were inspected by
Colonel Walker, R.E., in Victoria Park, and subsequently at
head-quarters, where the works constructed by the corps,
consisting of redoubts, batteries, bridges, rifle-pits, &c., were
viewed.
Regiment, under Lieut.-Colonel Vickers, was inspected by
Colonel Phillips, Grenadier Guards; the muster, 677, was
good, and the drill and bearing were excellent.
The lst and 2nd ‘Tower Hamlets Rifles, commanded
respectively by Lieut.-Colonel Wigram and Sir Fowell
Buxton, with a total attendance of nearly 1500 officers and
men, were inspected in Hyde Park by Colonel Moncrieff,
Scots Guards ; and the St. George’s Rifles, under Major Bird
(447), and the 23rd Middlesex (London and Westminster)
Rifles, under Lieut.-Colonel Routledge (744), were also in the
Park, and were inspected—the former by Colonel Hall, Cold-
stream Guards, and the latter by Colonel Kent.
The Bloomsbury Rifles (19th Middlesex), with the fine
mister of 874 out of 978, were officially inspected, in the
grounds of the Foundling Hospital, by Colonel Lord Seymour,
Coldstream Guards, Lieutenant-Colonel Smith Richards being
in command.
At Wanstead Flats, the Customs and Docks Rifles, under
Lieutenant-Colonel Kennard, M.P., also paraded for the same
The 3rd Surrey Rifles were inspected at Wimbledon, and
the 8th Surrey at Lambeth Palace Grounds.
Besides the above, a large number of other corps were
under arms; and the Civil Service Ritles went into camp in
the Old Deer Park, Richmond.
On Sunday morning there was a church parade of the 3rd
London and 6th Surrey Volunteers at St. Paul’s Cathedral,
Colonel Payne, Major Boyce, and other officers being in
attendance, with bands.
At Edinburgh yesterday week the Caledonian challenge
shield was shot for, and won by Quartermaster-Sergeant
Green, 3rd Renfrew.
The programme of the National Rifle Association for the
forthcoming prize meeting at Wimbledon-common has been
issued. Iixclusive of trophies and challenge cups, the amount
to be distributed is close upon £7000, divided into 1800 prizes,
varying in value from £1 to £250.
The Secretary of State for War has sanctioned the attend-
ance of nearly 5000 Volunteers at the ensuing manceuvres at
Aldershott, in addition to the 15,000 who will be present from
Aug. 5 to 7.
AGRICULTURAL ITEMS.
Lord Rosebery has again remitted 15 per cent in their half-
year’s rent to his tenants on the Mentmore estate. This makes
the sixth successive abatement granted by his Lordship.
The annual show of the Norfolk Agricultural Society was
held at Norwich at the close of last week. ‘The entries were
considerably in excess of former years, numbering 202 cattle, 250
horses, 240 sheep, 45 pigs, and 950 implements. ‘The Prince
of Wales won three first prizes—one tor a shorthorn bull and
two for Southdown sheep. He also won a special prize for the
best Southdown ram in the yard. ‘he show was the largest
and best ever held by the assuciation, and was well attended.
The annual show of the Royal Counties Agricultural Society
opened on ‘thursday week at Preston Park, Brighton, under
unfortunate circumstances. An excellent site had been secured,
a most liberal prize-list arranged, nearly £2000 being offered,
and the entries had surprised the expectations of the
executive; but on the previous Monday pleuro-pneumonia,
which was believed to have been stumped out of the district,
aguin showed itself, and the exhibition of cattle had, there-
In the evening the annual dinner
took place—the Duke of Norfolk, president of the society,
occupying the chair.
The preparations for holding the great agricultural show
of the Royal Society are rapidly approaching completion, and
everything is well forward for the opening of the show at
Reading on the 10th inst. The site, about seventy acres in
extent, is just outside the borough boundary. The Prince of
Wales intends visiting Reading on the occasion.
The South Kensington Museum has been open twenty-five
years, and the number of visitors during the time has been
21,077,654—moruing, 14,676,155; evening, 6,401,499.

SKETCHES AT THE LILLIPUTIAN FANCY FAIR AT KNIGHTSBRIDGE.

MASTER ERNEST BETTY. MISS MURIEL AGNES BRASSEY. MISS ADELAIDE MARIE BRASSEY. MASTER P. REEVES.

The Lilliputian Yancy Fair to be held at the Duke of Wel
lington’s Riding School, Knightsbridge, ou June 30, and
July 1 appears to be quite a novel idea. It is based on the
twin principles of arousing the interest of children for
children, and reminding the public, by the prominence of
happy, well dressed, and cherished little ones, that there are
others equally young and innocent, whose lives are burdens
to them, and who, but for kindly Ch in charity, would
languish in unalleviated misery throughout the little span
allotted to them
This fancy fair is held for the purpose of raising £1000 where-
with to endow a free cot in the small Hospital for Sick and
Incurable Children, in Cheyne-walk, Chelsea. The general
hospitals either do not accept chronic cases or discharge
them when they found to be incurable ; but this
one is a haven of refuge for the latter, where
they receive the best surgical and medical aid,
comfort, good food, and tender nursing for an
indefinite period. It is the most modest
little establishment imaginable, situated on
the river bank, where the breezes always
blow, and the steamers may be seen plying up
and down, and there are trees and stretches of
green grass on the opposite shore. Two old red-
brick houses have been thrown into one, and the
airy wainscoted rooms form homely wards that
are well ventilated in summer, and look cosy and
comfortable in winter. The boards look so clean
that, as old-fashioned folk say, you might eat
off them; the walls are bright with prints and
coloured pictures; the little iron cots are the
perfection of neatness, and over each is a
movable board or shelf, on which toys, books,
work, or food may be placed. Children are ad-
mitted at three years old and up to ten, and
remain till cured or till death calls them, which
i} it usually does before they are sixteen. Some,

that the first thing they do with their little

to be made as comfortable as possible. ‘There is

two and four visitors have only to ring the bell
and are instantly admitted and tuken through the
rooms. Some of them are old and tried friends,
who read aloud to the poor little invalids, chat
with them, show those who are able how to
beguile their weary hours with light fancy work,
help them to wind wool, to grasp knitting-
needles, and even to do “‘cross-stitch. Time,
perhaps, hangs more heavily with the boys; but
there are playthings and scrap-books, and it is

The Lilliputian Bazaar is under the immediate patronage
of several members of our Royal Family; and, as might
have been expected, has been warmly taken up by the families
of many members of the medical profession. As many as
eighty little children in fancy dress will either sell at the
stalls or vend small articles in various parts of the Riding
School. A very remarkable and unique stall will be that
devoted to the sale of domestic pets and foreign birds, and
presided over by Mrs. Symes Thompson and her daughter
and sons, in picturesque Tyrolese and Savoyard costumes
This stall will be embellished bya live peacock, who, it is
hoped, may be graciously pleased to keep his tail well spread

out and make himself as ornamental as possible. Canaries,
Java sparrows, puppies, kittens, and other four-footed pets will
also be there in considerable numbers, and will, no doubt,
command fancy prices.
Lady Brassey’s two youngest little girls, Miss Adelaide
Mary and Miss Muriel Agnes, will be dressed in the costumes
of Roumanian peasants sent them by the young and charming
Queen of Roumania, who is the godmother of the latter child.
These garments are peculiarly rich and quaint, and the
spinning-wheel is such a one as is commonly in use to this day
in Roumania.
The Misses Christine and Isabelle Harris will be attired as
shepherdesses @ la Watteau. ‘Their large round straw hats
are trimmed with blue ribbon; rose-coloured corsages and
paniers are looped up over skirts of flowered
satinette. One carries a tall crook in one hand,
a basket in which are some toy lambs to sell in
the other, and her sister beats a drum. ‘They
are a couple of as picturesque little figures as
one can wish to see. Master P. Reeves will be
simply a little bit of animated Dresden china
of the rarest and oldest kind. His tiny tri-
cornered hat is of blue satin, his small waistcoat
is of flowered silk, trimmed with gold passe-
menterie, his breeches of striped blue silk, and
his healthy legs quite bare. His mother will

Master Ernest Kemmis Betty, who, with his
brothers and some friends, will sell Algerine
wares. His Crusader’s costume will be of white
satin, bordered with gold, and bearing a large
red cross on the breast ; the sleeves and trousers
of red cashmere, a pair of stockings to match,
and ascarlet and white toque, in which waves a

A variety of entertainments will be given on
both days, in which Mrs. Kendal, Mr. J. L.
Toole, Mr. Arthur Cecil, and the Misses Webling
have promised their invaluable assistance. Per-
haps the most interesting of all will be a scene
from the ‘‘ School for Scandal,” in which Mrs.
Henry Irving’s two sons will respectively take
the parts of Joseph and Charles Surface. The
elder one bids fair to inherit his father’s talents,
and is very much like him in person. The Misses
Peggy and Josephine Webling will act with
them; and, having been present at a rehearsal,
we are justified in asserting that all who intend
to see them have a treat in store. We are in-
debted to the Lady’s Pictorial for the accompany-
ing four sketches. That paper has published a
special number, containing illustrations of almost
every child in its characteristic costume, which
will be sold at the Fancy Fair.
At Hull on Wednesday was held the forty-
fifth Annual Conference of the Yorkshire Union
ofjMechanics’ Institutes. Sir lM. Baines presided,
and stated that when the Union was formed, in
1837, it consisted of only thirteen institutes, or
3500 members, whereas now there were 261 in-
stitutes and 51,200 members, including 19,000
students in night schools, and 6000 paid and
unpaid teachers. In its Penny Savings Bank
there were deposits to the amount of £100,000.
Sir Edward Baines was, unanimously re-elected
President ;and twenty-two new institutes, prin-
cipally in the villages, were admitted. The next
annual meeting will be at Huddersfield.

 boLo THE
FINE ARTS.
FINE AND DECORATIVE ART EXHIBITION.
This Exhibition, at the European Galleries, New Bond-street,
is, we understand, now open permanently, but the contents
are to be chanzed in detail at intervals. Recently the extensive
display has been virtually renewed, and two rooms that were
temporarily closed have been reopened with, in addition to
works of decorative art, a small but choice collection of pictures
anu.sculpture. Among the former, two works, each of large
dimensions, are, in particular, very remarkable.
One of these, entitled ‘* A Baptismal Sprinkling’’ (Spruzzo
Battesimale) is by an Italian artist, Professor Maccari, who,
though but little, if at all known in this country, at once
proves himself by this work entitled to rank as one of the most
gitted artists in Europe. The picture represents the interior of
a room with two female figures, lifesize, or thereabout, to
below the knees, in rich costumes, recalling those of Venicein
the sixteenth century. In the centre on a wrought-iron tripod
stands a large copper vase (like those still seen in Venice), con-
taining water, aud above it hangs, suspended from a bracket
attached to the tapestried wall, a pail of the same metal. ‘The
girl on the right is partially hiding behind a curtain, and,
having submerged her hand in the water, is p!ayfully flecking
her friend, who, inclining aside, is laughingly raising her hand
to protect her face from the aspersion. A slighter subject
could hardly be imugined; but the incident was probably
witnessed by the artist, and it is realised with extraordinary
spirit und truth in the attitudes and expressions. And in pre-
sence of no picture have we been more inclined to subscribe to
the theory that in painting the ‘‘subject’’ is naught, the art
displayed in the treatment everything. For the art here is
certainly so paramount that the admiration it compels leaves
no room for a second thought. But to appreciate the
treatment—as far as may be from mere description—it
is necessary to mention the effect—which plays a most
important role. The light, then, is from a window
on the right, but part of it is transmitted through a red-
orange curtain, and thus, cunningly gradnated, it deeply
tinctures the figure behind the curtain, or flashes from the
copper vessels, or glimmers from the objects in the back-
ground. The other more prominent figure receives, however,
only the pure daylight, and is thereby brought into most
brilliant relief. ‘The colourist power displayed in thus ranging
over the whole gamut of colour and effect is truly astonishing.
Nor is the large and certain,.the free yet unostentatious
handling less masterly. ‘The picture has nothing in common
with the Fortuny school; rather, one portion recalls
Giorgione, the other Paul Veronese.
‘lhe other picture is scarcely a less surprise as a new
departure in the most ambitious field of ‘‘historical’’ figure-
painting by an artist familiar to us as a landscape painter — Mr.
William Linnell. The subject, ‘‘ The Luring and Capture
of Io,’’ is derived from early Greek history, in which it is
stated that the Pheenicians visited the early inhabitarts of
Greece to barter their wares for the pastoral produce of the
country, and in doing so introduced their idols, and carried
off some of the women—among others, the beautiful Princess
Io. It is an excellentiy ordered composition of numerous
figures. The nearly nude figures of Io and her maidens form
a graceful central group; behind, the unsuspecting shepherds
are driving forward their flocks; and, in the foreground, the
Phenicians are temptingly displaying trinkets and idols,
while armed men of the party are on the alert to capture the
women. The draughtsmanship and anatomy evince a com-
mand of the human figure seldom possessed by a landscape-
painter: the colouring is rich, deep, old-master-like: the
work, in short, while presenting individual qualities distinct
from those of the elder Linnell, is an honour to the family
name. By the same artist there is also an effective example of
his masculine landscape style, called ‘‘ Work and Play’’—a
half-reaped upland Surrey corn-tield with rustic figures variously
occupied. There are, besides, a refined female figure-subject
of decorative character by ‘IT’. Schafer ; cattle-pieces by De
Haus, even more than usually vigorous; Dutch views with
evening effect, refined in treatment, by Lamoriniére ; powerful
landscapes by De Schampheleer and Van Luppen, and other
works of mark; together with some skilful water-colour
drawings by Simoni, Guzzoni, &c.
The sculpture includes fine bronze figures by M. Eude, of
Paris, and M. Laumans, of Brussels, and works in marble or
terra cotta, by Messrs. T. N. McLean, Ingram, and other
English sculptors. But the most important work in this
department is the marble statue of ‘‘ David preparing to meet
Goliath,’ by Professor Fabj-Altini. The braced-up resolution
of the expression, and the learncd rendering of the youthful
male figure, entitle this work to take high rank. A cherub-like
winged figure with a lyre in marble, by the same, entitled the
** Genius of Harmony,”’ is pleasing, but the face is rather too
naturalistic for the ideal intention, and it is not to becompared
to the David.
We hope to have an early opportunity for reviewing the
works of Decorative Art which form the most novel as well as
by far the most considerable portion of the very extensive,
varied, and interesting exhibition.
AMERICAN ART.
Mr. John A. Lowell, of the well-known firm of John A. Lowell
and Co., art publishers, Boston, U.S., has on view at the Fine
Art Society’s Rooms, New Bond-street, some new American
art productions of peculiar interest. Among these are speci-
meus of the ‘‘ Low Tiles,’’ so called from the manufactory of
Messrs. Low, at Chelsea, Massachusetts. These tiles have
subjects on their face portraits or studies of heads, animals
with landscape accessories, street scenes, &c.-- modelled by
hand, iu relief, and, of course, reproducible by moulding.
Great artistic feeling is shown in the modelling; nor can we
be surprised at this, learning, as we do from Harper’s and the
Century Magazines, that Mr. J. G. Low—who, after many
experiments, brought this and other ceramie productions of
his firm to_perfection—has studied art in the ateliers of
Couture and Troyon, and for many years was a decorative
painter. But the softly-indicated modelling is much en-
a in suggestiveness; and brilliant decorative colour is,
at the same time, attained by the strong and rich-toned
glazes, blue, yellow, green, olive, brown, and red, that are
added, and which by collecting, in the depressions, also em-
phasise the relief. This mode of treating tiles is evidentiy
capable of great development. Mr. Lowell likewise shows a
number of engraveca designs for his next issue of Christmas
cards, &c. Many of these are charming in fancy; and the
delicacy of the line-engraving and aquatint, from steel plates,
with the simple black-and-white result is, it must be confessed,
less vulgar, and therefore preferable to the majority of
the productions in colours turned out for a similar pur-
pose on this side the Atlantic. We noticed Mr. Lowell’s
publications of some two years ago; but a further technical
remark may now be made. With a view to necessary
economy, there is a good deal of ‘‘ machine-work”’ in these
engravings; yet it seems that the engraver is expected to
supply a good deal of the detail, the original dvsigns being not
carried far. The latitude thus given is obviously calculated to
develop a higher artistic féclmg in the engraver, and gives
ILLUSTRATED’ LONDON
him greater pride in his work than when nothing is left to his
knowledge or invention. Another technical novelty in Mr.
Lowel!'s collection is a series of studies, by Mr. A. H. Bicknell,
of American scenery, with the richest effects of etching, which
are | roduced by printing from an oil-painting in monochrome
on a zinc plate. ‘The disadvantage of this proccss is that it
does not admit of a sccond impression being taken from the
plate; on the otier hand, each is a unique work of the artist.
An art and industrial exhibition for amateurs and pro-
fessionals, for North Wales, will be held at Wrexham in
October.
Mr. George Barnard, whose Swiss paintings are well known
to the members cf the Alpine Club, is exhibiting this week,
at his studio, 8, Harrington-square, N.W., water-colour draw-
ings from the coast of Genoa, Italian lakes, Switzerland, &c.
NOVELS.
Jntellectnally and morally there can be few greater treats than
a leisurely perusal of such a work as Castle Warlock: by George
MacDon ld, LL.D. (Sampson Low and Co.), which is styled
‘a homely romance,’’ and axvsumes the outward form of a
novel in three volumes; but it is really a beautiful sermon
preached with all the earnestness of an evangelist and with all
the eloquence and imaginative illustration of a poet.
preacher’s theme is love with purity, wisdom with simplicity,
dignity with humility, brotherliness, truthfulness, fear but not
dread of God, imitaticn of Christ, the ordering of this life
as if it were but a preparation for another, a higher, and a
better. This sort of teaching, no doubt, is somewhat out
of fashion; but somehow it satisfies the heart,
with such a teacher to inculcate the precepts impressively
and persuasively, a teacher evidently abounding with mental
power, it does not seem to clash with reason. Nor must it be
supposed for a moment that the preacher belongs to the
mealy-mouthed order; he does not shrink, when the occasion
appears to require it, from putting into the mouth of a
drunken English lord, and upon the harmless, innocent paper,
a string of such oaths as the proverbial ‘‘trooper’’ might,
though more sparingly, employ. The preacher, indeed, is
instinct with the spirit and moulded after the fashion of a
Knox ora Luther, with their habit of intermingling strong
language and grim or bold humour. But, as a general rule,
he is gentler end more refined than either; the very essence
of his doctrine is sweetness and light. A more lovely picture
than his ‘‘ homely romance’’ exhibits of paternal and filial
affection, of religious reverence, of communion with Heaven,
of heart-service and benevolent recognition in the relations
between servant and master, of poverty courageously and un-
murmuringly borne, of riches thankfully but calmly and
philosophically accepted, and of ‘‘the maiden passion for a
maid’’ conceived, cherished, reciprocated, and ultimately
requited, has seldom, if ever, been presented for contem-
plation. It is utterly unlike life, perhaps, especially in some
of the little details connected with the ‘‘ maiden passion ;”’
but it is very charming, though it may not be life-like. There
is something a little vulgar, a little revolting, perhaps,
in the common-place device whereby the difficulties which
have been accumulating in the hero’s path are suddenly
removed ; it is a somewhat lame and ignoble conclusion when
blameless life, a sturdy fight for bare existence, contempt of
poverty and of the world’s opinion, and perfect trust in
God are rewarded, not by some mark of favour beyond the
comprehension of mere worldlings, but by the discovery of a
secret treasure, consisting of bank-notes and precious stones,
after the most approved style of the ordinary novelist. Secrets
and mysteries, however, especially when tlie scene of them is
laid in Scotland, have generaily some superstitious story
attached to them; and in the domain of superstition the
author of this ‘‘ homely romance’’ is almost unapproachable.
He is a master, too, of the Scottish language, which, whether
the Scots themselves be humorous or not, has an irresistible
humour of its own; and by means of that humour he more
than compensates his English readers for what they might
otherwise regard as an unconscionable ar ount of it.
Constancy, as might be inferred fron the title, is the sub-
ject chiefly disceonrsed about and illust ated in the three
volumes of A Faithful Lorer: by Katharine 8. Macquoid
(Hurst and Blackett), a pretty, graceful, agreeable novel, in
which there is little or nothing of the stirring and eventful
sort, but plenty of charming portraiture, an abundance of
love-making, an interesting contrast between the ideas
held and the modes adopted, or suppo-ed to be held
and adopted, by our French neighbours and ourselves in
natters appertaining to love and marriage. Practically, how-
ever, there is probably little difference between the English
and the French way of proceeding; it is equally exceptional,
no doubt, in both countries for marriages to be the outcome
of nothing but mutual affection. The tact nevertheless remains,
of course, that the French doctrine, whatever the practice
may be, inculcates the duty of marrying first and loving
afterwards ; whereas in, England, the theory, whatever the
practice may be, is just the reverse, and of that fact advantage
is taken in the novel under consideration to present a very
effective and even touching series of scenes and situations.
It is by no means clear whether the reader of the novel be
intended to arrive at any definite conclusion as to which is
the better of the two doctrines, for at the end of the tale the
state of things is as follows: the ‘‘ faithful lover,’’ who has
been thrown over by a lovely French girl in obedience to the
doctrine of her country, lives a miserable life and dies a sud-
den death without any compensation, whilst she survives him,
in wealth and honour and beauty and coquettish widowhood,
to give her son in marriage to his niece. It is true that the
son and the niece have conducted their affuir of the heart on
the English plan, or what is supposed to be the English plan,
and that of their permanent bliss there can be no doubt ; but,
on the other hand, a most eligible English squire, who had
courted the niece in the style of his country, is represented to
have consoled himself in an almost incredibly short space of
time for his temporary discomfiture and not particularly hand-
some treatment when she marries ‘‘ another.’’ So that, on the
whole, it would seem as if a reader who wished to calculate
the preponderance of advantages between the English and the
French method were intended to conclude that it is ‘‘ six of
one, and half a dozen of the other.’? Nay, inasmuch as the
** faithful lover”’ is plainly condemned by inference, if not in
so many words, for not having taken his jilting like a man
and sought in the sea fora fish as good, as many a one pro-
verbially is, as that which his rival had drawn out of it, the
French system may not unreasonably be understood to receive
the writer’s stronger recommendation. At any rate, readers
of romances may have the pleasure of deciding for themselves,
and, at the same tims, of making acquaintance with some ex-
quisite sketches, especially of children.
Variety is among the most distinguishing characteristics
of Coals of Five and other Stories: by David Christie Murray
(Chatto and Windus); and of all the various subjects with
which the writer deals there is none with which he does not
seem to be at home. He appears to be at his best, however,
NEWS JULY 1, 1882
among the stalwart miners of what is called ‘the Black
Country,” discoursing of the way in which they dress for @
holiday, the dialect in which they converse, the ‘‘chatf’’ they
exchange, the manner in which they go a-courting, the rough
chivalry of their wooing, the strength and yet tenderness of
their love, the intrepidity of their hearts, the grandeur of
their self-sacrifice, the somewhat clumsy coquettishness and,
at the same time, the simple, honest, teue-heartedness of the
women they woo., Indeed, there is the hand of a master who
well knows what he is about in the powerful as well as droll
and pathetic sketch entitled ‘‘Mr. Bowker’s Courtship.’
There is a similar mixture of drollery and pathos in ‘‘ ‘ihe
Showman’s Ghost,’’? and a double portion of both those
ingredients. ‘The author is scarcely so happy when he rises a
little higher in the social scale. Perhaps that is because
he parades before us characters so familiar to us as
to have become stale and even repulsive; the reader
of fiction has probabiy had too much of the hand-
some and athletic bricfless barrister, with his boat on
the Thames, his everlasting pipe, his inexhaustible beer-
tankard, his independent income, his adventures, and lus
escape from murder, enough of Italian musicians and pawn-
brokers, enough of rival actresses, enongh of ** Bohemia’? and
of ‘* quasi-Bohemia’’ altogether. There is sadly too much of
‘‘mine uncle ’”’ in the stories. And yet, though there may be
an air of triteness about some of the subjects and their con-
The comitants, there is no little fresliness about the incidents and
about the manner in which the incidents are descriled. ‘The
writer has an excellent gift of picturesqueness, impressiveness,
facetiousness, quaintness, tenderness, manfulness ; and, even
in his slightest pieces, he exhibits some portion of that gift to
excellent purpose.
and
Probably, more good than harm is done by the publication
of such romances as Unknown to History: by Charlotte M.
Yonge (Macmillan and Co.), which is called ‘‘a story of the
captivity of Mary of Scotlund.’’ Such romancesin the hands
of a clever and experienced writer, as the writer certainly is in
the present instance, are admirable trom certain points of
view, presenting the reader with more or less truthful, and
decidedly picturesque, sketches of historical personages and
events, together with more or less correct representations of
the life led, the language used, the customs observed at the
period treated of, so that certain phases of English history
become by an agreeable process indelibly impressed upon the
reader’s mind, and inculcating sound moral doctrines, com-
bined with amiable and healthy sentiments; but, on the other
hand, they are open to asuspicion of mischievousness, in so
far as they may implant in youthful minds a belief for which
there is little or no foundation. In the present case the
romance is founded upon a very questionable tradition.
Ancient gossips related that Mary Queen of Sec‘», exactly
nine
Dunbar
months after her forcible detention
Castle, was taken illat Lochleven, and that the result of
by Lov'well at
J
the illness was a daughter, who was transported to France, and
became a nun in the convent of Soissons. So far the tradition ;
but the romance goes still further, brings the royai mother
and daughter together in the Queen’s English prison, and
marries the latter to a Talbot, who settles with her at the
Hague, and, after the death of Queen Elizabeth, returns with
her to England, where she and her husband live the rest of
their days in ‘‘ happy obscurity.’’ If the romance did any-
thing towards confirming or exploding the questionable
tradition, it would be a distinct gain ; but, as things are, the
severe student of facts may feel aggrieved at this interesting
attempt of a charming novelist to increase rather than
diminish the mystery which already surrounded a very
difficult portion of English and Scottish history.
THE LORD MAYOR’s BALL AT GUILDHALL.
The ball given on the Monday night of last week by Sir John
Whitaker Ellis, Lord Mayor of London, and the Lady
Mayoress, at Guildhall, was a very successful affair. ‘The
interior of that interesting old building, with the adjoining
Guildhall Library, was skilfully and tastefully decorated for
this festive occasion by the City Architect and Mr. A. Murray;
the covered entrances, in Guildhall-yard, were adorned
with banners and shields bearing armorial devices, aud the
front was draped in crimson. ‘he corridors were hung with
heavy curtains looped up with silk cords and yellow tassels, to
shut out the draughts. From the library the ordinary desks
and chairs had been removed, and at the north end were
arranged chairs of state for the civic dignitaries. The library
floor, being of polished wood, proved uivst suitable for ge
dancing; but the floor of the Great Hall was laid with pre-
pared canvas. Vromenades and retreshment-rooms were
fitted up in all the corridors and official apartments, in the
Court of Exchequer, and in the Crypt beneath. A little betore
nine o’clock the Lord Mayor arrived, and, accompanied by the
Lady Mayoress and supf#rted by the Shcrifis, preceded by the
City Marshal, Sword and Mace Bearers, entered the library,
the band of Messrs. Coote and Tinney playing some popular
music the while. Among those presented were the Mayors of
Durham, Bradford, Leamington, Walsall, Coventry, Oswestry
Abingdon, Ryde, Wolverhampton, Bristol, Newport, Derby,
and Liverpool, the majority wearing chains of Gllice, others
J
without any insignia of municipal dignity, and in plain
evening dress. Many guests came in Court costume; but the
members of the Court of Lieutenancy in their scarlet unitorm
tiimmed with silver lace. The reception occupied half an
hour, when a procession was formed again, and entered the
Great Hall, around which they promenaded to a march
played by the band of the Grenadier Guards, staticned in the
gallery. Dancing in this chamber recommenced, when, in a
set of the Lancers, his Lordship had for his partner the
Mayoress of Liverpool, their vis-d-vis being the Mayor of
Liver} ool and the Lady Mayoress, whilst the sides were tormed
by Alderman Knight and Lady Hanson, and Alderman Sir R.
Hanson and Mrs Baker, wife of the Mayor of Manchester.
It was a pleasant evening, agreeable to hosts aud guests.
THE STATUE OF SIR ROWLAND HILL.
The Prince of Wales, on Saturday, the 17th, as was recorded
in our last week’s paper, unveiled the memorial statue of Sir
Rowland Hill, the founder of the Penny Postage system, at
the south-east corner of the Royal Exchange, facing ( orubill.
His Royal Highness was there met by the Lord Mayor and
Sherifisof London, with the officers of the Corporation, and
by the Postmaster-General, the Kight Hon. Henry Fawcett
M.P., and Mr. Stevenson Blackwood, Secretary to the Post
Office. Many of the Mayors of provincial towns, who were ta
dine with the Lord Mayor and the Prince of Wales at the
Mansion House, were also present at this ceremony, and the
son of Sir Rowland Hill, Mr. Pearson Hill, with others of the
family. An address was presented to his Royal Lighness, which,
after reciting the benefits to the country that had resulted
from the labours of Sir Rowland Hill, stated that the «um cf
£14,000 had been subscribed for the memorial. This,in addition
to the statue and a bust in Westminster Abbey, included the GE
foundation of a benevolent fund for the succour of aged and

NEW BOOKS.
Idolatry appears to be still prevalent in this Christian and
even Protestunt country, to judge from the evidence afforded
by the dedicatory inscription which an anonymous writer,
whose sex is bewrayed by the style of writing and by certain
other indications, not to mention a plain confession, has had
inserted upon one of the leaves of Magyarland (Sampson Low
und Co.), and which informs all whom it may concern that the
two handsome and, in some respects, charming volumes are
“dedicated to all who love mountaius by one who worships
them.’? Mountains, it may be urged, are not idols; but, on
the other hand, the signification of idolatry has been extended
SRS
AR
FAH, by common consent and usage beyond the limits of the literal
meaning. At any rate, the anonymous writer, who is described
as ‘fa Fellow of the Carpathian Society ’’ and as the author of
“The Indian Alps,’’ is a lady who loves or worships mountains
to such a degree that her two volumes might have been ex-
pected to deal with them entirely. But, on the contrary,
though there is something, and something very interesting
too, concerning the ‘ highlands,’’ there is something more,
far more and even more interesting, about the ‘* lowlands ”’ of
Itungary. For Magyarland, of course, is Hungary ; and the
Magyars, their land, their language, costumes, habits, manners,
and customs are not yet so familiar to English tourists and
English readers that a pleasant, lively account of them, like
that contained in the two volumes under consideration, could
easily be dispense with. Besides, as regards paper, print, and
general appearance, the volumes are of a very superior kind,
delightful to look upon, as well as provocative of a desire
to read; and they are illustrated, from the lady’s own
sketches, apparently, not only with a liberality bordering
on profusion, but in excellent taste and in various styles,
from the sublime, it would be scarcely too much to say,
to the ludicrous. Indeed, the lady, whether with pen or pencil,
exhibits a great deal of sprightliness and drollery, if not of
downright wit und humour. The narrative is based upon the
expercence of the lady and, as is to be inferred, if it is not
distinctly stated, her husband during two or more visits
to the land of the Magyar. And, fortunately, the travellers
did not follow the beaten track ; they preferred, much to their
own and to the reader’s advantage, to make their way across
country, as it were. ‘They disdained to go, as they had pre-
viously gone, and asit is the common practice to go, by Munich
and Vienna; they wished ‘to see Hungary in its byways as
well as in its highways,’? and they ‘ concluded,”’ as the
Americans says, to reach Pest by way of Venice. ‘This they
did; and how they did it, and what more they did, as well
as What they saw and suffered, though their sufferings were not
many or very acute, may be most agreeably ascertained from
the pages of the two volumes. It may occur to the reader, at
the outset and even after the outset, on one or two occasions,
that the lady is rather too much inclined to indulge in
rhapsody und in what is sometimes denominated ‘‘ gush”? ;
but there is ample compensation, the writer makes handsome
amends. [t may occur, also, to the reader that a native French-
man, unless he were exceedingly ignorant of his own language,
would certainly not say ‘‘que les Anglais sont originals!”
(sie); that an Italian would not, save under similar circum-
stances, talk of ‘* una clima,’’ as if the substantive were of the
feminine gender, that a certain saucepan is not ‘‘called a
cazarola”’ in Italian, but a ‘‘ casserola,’’ being only the French
** casserole
;’? and that a few other little matters of the kind
might have received more attention. ‘The lady, it seems,
speaks German so well that an Austrian official would not
believe in her English nationality, and she probably writes
German as well as she speaks it; perhaps she thought she
would be equally at home with other foreign languages.
A more fascinating book, in its way, than Alps and
Sanctuaries; by Samuel Butler (David Bogue), it would be
difficult to conceive. ‘The author is he who wrote ‘‘ Erewhon”’ ;
and his mixture of originality, eccentricity, paradox, and good
sound sense, when he discourses argumentatively, is ex-
tremely piquant, exhilarating, amusing, exasperating, and
refreshing. His main purpose is to tell his readers some-
thing about the ‘‘ Alps and sanctuaries of Piedmont
and the Canton Ticino,’’ omitting, however, for cogent reasons
given, the ‘*Sacro Monte’? of Varallo; but he indulges in
frequent digressions of the most entertaining as well as
instructive und suggestive kind, and the fashion in which he
connects his subject with Handel, interlarding his pages
with printed extracts from that great ‘master’s ‘‘ scores,”’
is likely to have a singular effect wpon readers who are
totally ignorant of music, as if there were something
Bedlamitish about the book. In other respects, too, the
author’s humour will probaby be considered of too recondite a
sort for the comprehension and enjoyment of the multitude.
Still the humour is there for those who can appreciate it.
Many worthy persons, not to say most English tourists, have
been over the St. Gothard pass to Airolo, Faido, Bellinzona,
and Locarno, und so by the Lago Maggiore into Italy; and
they may suppose that they have seen all that is to be
seen thereabouts and know all that it is worth while to
know about the region: but let them take up this most
attractive book, aud they will soon be fain to confess
that they have scen nothing and know nothing; that
what they thought was stale and commonplace is, on the
contrary, quite fresh and uncommon, and they will long to go
back, taking the book with thei, and sojourn a while, for
part of a winter and part of a spring, if they can, in some one
or more of the places which they have been in the habit of
regarding as more or less insignificant halting-grounds on the
roud that leads to the Italian lakes. Be it known, moreover,
that the pages of the book are embellished with numerous,
almost multitudinous, illustrations, based upon drawings
done by various hands, including specimens of the work
done by self-tanght Italians and by a regularly instructed
Italian schoolboy. These specimens enable the author to
Jaunch out into some of his most characteristic bursts of
argumentation, and to deliver himself of what may or may not
be reasonable, but is undoubtedly very ingenious. The
bold originality of the author may be measured by the follow-
ing stundard: ** While on the subject of Fleet-street,’’ he
says, “*L would put in a word in favour of the much-abused
griffin. The whole monument is one of the handsomest in
London. As forits being an obstruction, I have discoursed
with a large numberof omnibus conductors on the subject,
and am satisficd that the obstruction is imaginary.’’ ‘There
are probably thousands who agree with him, but either have
not the courage of their opinions or cannot obtain a hearing.
However that may be, the book should be read by everybody
to whom the sub-alpine valleys on the Italian side, with their
picturesque scenery, their wonderful churches, bell-towers,
oratories, sanctuaries, good-natured priests, and curious people
are objects of interest or even of faint remembrance.
Descendants of Cromwell and Ireton are not at all the sort of
persons from whom a ‘Talleyrand or any other suspicious man of
the world wonld expect an absolutely impartial estimate of
Charles the First and Henrietta Maria, of Strafford and of
Laud ; and yct it is doubtful whether absolute impartiality in
dealing with those personages is not among the most striking
characteristics of the two cluborate volumes entitled Zhe Fall
of the Monarchy of Charles I. ; by Samuel Rawson Gardiner,
LL.D. (Longmans), whereof the author claims to be ‘a
descendant of Cromwell and Ireton.”? How invaluuble a
labourer in the field of English history the author has been for
something like a quarter of a century must be well known to
everybody for whom the subject he has so diligently studied
has the slightest interest; and it is, therefore, without the
smallest misgiving that we prepare to listen to him, even
when he is careful to warn us that he is about to tell a thrice-
told, a seventy-times-told tale. We are quite sure that he will
have discovered something new, that he will have a fresh
version to give of what is old, that he will be able to point
out errors and to offer corrections, that he will have a light of
his own, a steady, clear, serene light, which will make us sce
quite distinctly what was formerly «all darkness and confusion.
He points out, moreover, what a change has taken place since he
began his historical labours, how differeut is the general mental
condition trom what it was when Macaulay and Forster had it
all their own way, when Puritanism had the ascendancy among
the gieat bulk of readers, when abhorrence of arbitrary
power rendered it impossible for certain individuals to obtain
bare justice at the tribunal of public opinion. We have
altered all that ; there is even a slight, or not a slight, reac-
tion ; there is, at any rate, an excellent opportunity for an
historian of broad views who will be no more prejudiced
against the advocate of ‘Thorough’? than in favour of
“King Pym.’”? And with such an historian we are now
dealing. To the extraordinary industry he has exercised in
his investigations his own references bear ample witness, and
it is much to be regretted that he should, in just one instance,
have met with a rebuff when he attempted to procure access
to manuscripts of importance. But, on the other hand, a
gentleman or a nobleman may have excellent reasons for not
wishing correspondence which is in his possession to be read,
even by the most discreet of historians, and those reasons may
have nothing whatever to do with any unpatriotic or unphilo-
sophical desire to keep the public in ignorance of what it
would be for their advantage that they should know. There
is just one respect, then, in which the two wonderfully com-
prehensive voluines, each with its index as well as with mar-
ginal summary, references, and various notes, are less com-
plete than they might have been; and yet their completeness
is marvellous. And their very completeness suggests an
observation; the two volumes deal witha period extending
from 1637 to 1642 only, and if history generally, both of this
country and of other countries, should be written with
the same minuteness, the question is whether the life of
any ordinary person, having the ordinary calls of life to
obey, will suffice for an adequate perusal of the various
works written on the scale of these two volumes, of Mr. Free-
man’s ‘* History of the Norman Conquest’? and ‘* The Reign
of William Rutus,’’ of Mr. Froude’s monumental instalment of
English history, and other similarly gigantic publications.
However, nobody ought to grumble at the liberal supply
of historical information, with the huge quantity of
details, and of authorities quoted ; one ought rather
to sigh at the thought of how many poor souls, not
having a whole life to spend in the pursuit of historical
kuowledge, will have to fall back upon epitomes, ‘‘ popular
editions,” and ‘‘ cabinet editions,’ just as though the more
exhaustive publications had never seen the light at all.
Gentlemen who start from Charing-cross for Tunis in the
month of October and arrive in England again in the month of
November cannot, even if they happen to be Americans, have
learnt everything that can be known about the foreign country
in which they have sojourned for the few weeks they could
spare; but they may have seen and experienced enough to
form the basis of a readable, interesting narrative, as Zhe Land
of the Bey: by 'T. Wemyss Reid (Sampson Low and Co.), will
prove to anybody who will take the trouble to read the volume.
The author paid a visit to Tunis just at the time when the
French were preparing to enter the sacred city of Kairwan,
which he would fain have entered likewise, but he had to
return without effecting his purpose. He nevertheless
stayed some little time in Tunis, whence he made a few
excursions, at a very exciting crisis; and, as he seems to be
so much of a politician as the correspondent of a leading Eng-
lish newspaper is bound to be, and probably, in consequence,
had excellent introductions, he has a great deal more to say
than the ordinary tourivt would have had. Not that, on the
other hand, he despises the petty details wherewith the ordinary
tourist who writes a book is wont to achieve the desired
number of pages. In fact, he indulges over-much, perhaps,
in circumstantiality. He informs his readers that he will do
his ‘‘ best to keep most strictly within the limits of the truth,”’
an ingenuous and unnecessary statement, one would say, for
anybody to make who did not feel the spirit of Munchausen
stirring within him. He is also careful to meution that the
bottle of vermin powder he took with him was ‘‘ very large,’’
and that his flask of brandy was a ‘‘ goodly’? one and filled
with the ‘‘ finest ’’ spirit; and, lest his temperance should be
suspected, he adds that ‘‘the brandy, like the medicine, was
carefully set aside for an emergency.’’ Then his truthfulness
compels him to acknowledge that ‘‘ in due time the emergency
arrived ;’’ and he might just as well have explained that the
reason for taking a ‘‘ goodly”’ flask was a rooted conviction
that the ‘‘emergency’’ would arrive pretty frequently. How
he lost the key of his portmanteau and thereby nearly lost his
train; how the not unusual spectacle of ‘‘a great crowd of
passengers ’’ was to be seen at Charing-cross ; how, being an
udmirer and quoter of the late Mr. ‘Thackeray’s ideas and
verses, he ‘* ate bouillabaisse at Marseilles,’’ and did not like
it; how the sea had the effect of making several people ill;
how he met on ship-board a live ‘‘ vivanditre’’ in the
flesh; how she kissed a bashful, backward ‘‘ comrade,’’ and
so on, are little matters which he does not omit to
set before his readers; and similar minutencss, not
to say diffuseness, is noticeable throughout his volume.
But this trait is not altogether disagreeable when writer
treats reader as one gossip would treat another. The
book is very likely to create in the reader a desire to become
personally acquainted with the picturesqueness of Tunis and
other places which the writer describes, notwithstanding the
nuisances that may have to be encountered. As for the
author’s opinion of Tunisian things in general, he takes a
gloomy view of the French position ; he has nothing but praise
for the English Consul-General, Mr. Reade, and nothing but
dixpraise, not to say abuse, for the French Consul-General, M.
Roustan. A pathetic page of the-volume-is where the author
tells of his meeting with Captain Selby who hoped “ to get
some partridge-shooting in Albania.”’
Upon the death of Emerson, towards the end of Jast Apvril,
we gave a short notice of his life and writings, to accompany
the portrait which then appeared in this journal. ‘lhe name
of Mr. Alexander Ireland, of Manchester, was mentioned as
one of his oldest friends on this side of the Atlantic, whose
intercourse with the gifted American moralist, when he visited
Great Britain, in 1833, in 1847-8, and in 1872-3, allowed him
peculiar opportunitics of knowing Emerson’s personal cha-
yactcr and temperament, and entering into his spirit as
thinker and teacher. By far the most life-like biographical
memoir, with the most satisfactory appreciative estimate of the
genius of Emerson, was that which Mr. Ireland furnished to
the Manchester Examiner and Times of April 29, the day after
the news of Emerson’s death reached England. We are
very glad to see that Memoir reprinted, in a_ small
volume of elegant though plain appearance, together
with twenty pages relating Mr. Ireland’s personal recol-
lections of Emerson, which are novel, characteristic, and full
of significance ; and with some of Emerson's private letters
addressed to Mr. Ireland and others. ‘To these are added,
from sundry American periodicals, a few anecdotes that might
else be lost to readers in this country. Mr. Ireland’s loving
care, taste, and skill, as a contributor of materials to literary
biography and bibliography, were long since displayed in his
valuable records of the works of Hazlitt, Charles Lamb, and
Leigh Hunt, and in the assistance he has given to the editor-
ship of collections of English poetry. The same qualifications
as u critic and scholar of the best English literature, besides
his intimate acquaintance with Emerson and with many of
Emerson’s associates, render this work of Mr. Ireland’s
peculiarly acceptable to all who may take concern, now or
hereafter, in one of the most original didactic authors. Emerson
is not at all likely to be laid on the shelf; for neither
the topics of his discourse, nor the arguments and illus-
trations he employed, nor his style and tone of senti-
ment, were of an ephemeral character; and we cannot doubt
that his essays, lectures, and poems will be studied by a future
generation, and many a pregnant sentence of his ripe ethical
wisdom be cherished in the minds of our posterity. Then will
Mr. Ireland’s very interesting and unassuming In Memorian of
Ralph Waldo Emerson (to be had now of Simpkin, Marshall,
and Co.) bea needful library companion to the standard edition
of his friend’s collective works. Happy is the great author
who has a friend to do so much for him, and to do it so well,
a few days after his death !
Dr. Samuel Kinns’s work, Ioses and Geology ; or, the Harmony
of the Bible with Science (Cassell, Petter, and Galpin), madc its
appearance justthree months ago, and we find it has already
passed into a sccond edition, thus indicating that its merits
have been discovered by a large section of the reading public.
The task undertaken by the author is one of no ordinary kind:
it is an attempt to harmonise Biblical history with the latest
discoveries in science and to confirm the order of creation as
given by Moses. Modern scientific theories of the formation of
the earth have undoubtedly brought us face to face with prob-
lems which should be met, and if possible solved, since they
touch the deepest interests of the human heart and life. We
will not undertake to determine whether Dr. Kinns has suc-
ceeded in doing this; but if he shall have been success-
ful in convincing some few doubters and waverers, he
possibly will not think himself quite unrewarded for
the vast amount of time and labour evidently bestowed
upon his book ; and, at least, he will have earned the warmest
thanks of those who suspect that the science of to-day is fast
tending to unsettle faith in the inspiration of Holy Writ.
It is, however, only fair to Dr. Kinns to say that he writes
in no such narrow spirit, for he has not the least fear that the
discoveries of science will unsettle the belief in creative design.
Our space is limited, and we must content ourselves by indi-
cating simply that ‘‘ Moses and Geology”’ is written in the
narrative style, which will render it interesting to the general
reader, and to young persons in particular, by whom it will be
probably used as a book of reference, since it is a vast store-
house of instruction in geology, astronomy, chemistry, botany,
and natural history. ‘The great Dinotherium of the primeval
forests, the Ichthyosaurus of ancient seas, and the micioscopic
animals and plants equally find place, and afford absorbing
topics for interesting discourses. As a literary production this
work possesses considerable merit. ‘The valuable aid to be
obtained by pictorial art has not been overlooked, upwards of
a hundred well-executed engravings adorning its pages and
materially assisting in the elucidation of the text. ‘The general
execution of the work, as might have been expected, coming as
it does from the well-known firm of Casscll, Petter, and Co.,
is all that could be wished.
Bimbi, by Ouida (Chatto and Windus), is a collection of
charming stories for children. Very touching is the affection of
August for the Niirnberg Stove, and his admiration and rever-
ence are unbounded for the long dead Hirschvigel, who wrought
‘in loyalty and love,’’ thereby making his time beautiful. ‘The
little Karl who picks the flowers of humility and sympathy off
the downs, is a study that even those who are long past childish
days will read with pleasure, and almost touching the thought
of a modern poct, that passing ‘‘ Sweet ’’ shines
** the loveliest lamp fur earthly feet,
The light of little children and their love.”
These two, to say nothing of the stories which lead you to the
shores and cities of the sunny South, more especially that one of
‘The Child of Urbino,’’ are gracefully and tenderly written;
and, indeed, Ouida in her tales for children is delicacy itself,
in strong contrast to that plainness, if not coarseness, of speech
she uses in her novels. It is impossible, however, to help
feeling that they are done after the model of him who must
ever delight the children of all ages, Hans Andersen; and this
is more strikingly the case in Ouida’s sketches, when she
travels to Germany for her scenes and little actors ; those laid
in Italy breathe that atmosphere of joy and light and dreamy
repose which is found there and nowhere else, and which it
seems to be granted but to two of the present generation of
poets and writers to convey absolutely to their readers—
namely, Browning and Ouida—who so thoroughly imbue
their work with the essence and individuality of the country
that the reader is transported without tangible effort te the
land that has ‘‘the fatal gift of beauty.”
Unfuirly Won, by Nannie Power O’Donoghue (Chapman
and Hall), is a novel with plenty of incident, a good deal of
base treachery, and some very strong loves, all of which are,
however, so well blended together that an exciting and well-
told story is the result; sensational enough to please the most
sensational of readers, and yet tolerably kept within the bounds
of probability. ‘The interest and uncertainty as to who will
eventually be the fortunate husband of Ivy is well sustained to
the day of her marriage. ‘The authoress acknowledges several
of the characters to be life studies, and therefore they are
not the marvellous picces of perfection which are to be met
with too often in the novels of the present day; but they are
more interesting. because more real, from their possessing faults
and failings combined with the goodness and nobility of which
human nature is capable. ‘The scene in the loft over Ivanhoe’s
stable, and afterwards in the stall, and Turnbull’s brutality to
his dog, are the least agreeable in the book, but are admirably
worked up. Faults there must be in books, and ‘ Unfairly
Won’’ is not an exception to the rule; but we will only call
attention to what is evidently a slip of the pen, though it is
somewhat unfortunately placed, being in one of the Abbé’s
theorizing speeches to Ivy—namely, ‘* I had almost said, with
Ivter, *\W hat is truth?’ ’’ Peter of course should be Pilate,
and many of our readers will remember that it is in the
opening sentence of Bacon’s first essay, thus recorded—
‘““Whiat is truth? said je:ting Pilate, and would not stay for
an an:Wwer.’’
