The loose cavaliers are troublesome in those parts;
" the Carndeners," so called from Noel Viscount Cam-
den, the principal royalist adherents, show no mercy
for such. But even in searching for arms in houses
of royalists, a manly respect is shown for family
relics :
Tell Berry to ride in, alto Montagne; and cut home, as no mercy
ought to be shown them rovers, who are only robbers and not hos

Here is news of Cavendish (whom Oliver killed at
Gainsborongh, July 28, 1643) in &letter from his son,
Henry Cromwell, then only 16, bat already, as lade
were in those days, a stout young soldier :
ear news says, Candid' has sworn to sweep the Fens clear of us.
How he beadles his broom, we will see when we meet he may find
else than dirt to try hia hands on, I think.
The last batch of eleven letters takes us from the
serious skirmish at Gainsborough, over the fight of
Winceby, where Oliver narrowly escaped with his
life, being knocked down by Sir Ingram Hopton, and
on to the great action of Marston Moor, which Oliver
entered a Western Association captain, from which he
emerged a famous general.
The letters continue abundant in similar traits to
those we have already extracted.
A rough refusal to the home sick Suffolk yeomanry
—and no imposition !•

to return home to barren. Now, that Is hardly to be given=

Have not had great manifesting of God's bounty and Irma, m
short a e lam filled with surprise at this fresh requiring of
these selfish men. Let them write home, and hire others to work.
I will grant no fresh parse: the Lord-Geneva' is spinet It; and so
am I, fixed in my mind. Do you ride over to Rwaffbam, and buy
Oats for 2,000 bore : we shall require r many, to come on to Gay-
lord (7), by order, as eeeded. Also see to the Hay :—and let your
serranta see well that no imprwitionb practised. I must insist on due
weight and measure for man and horse ; ar let the chsproen look to
their locks and pouches ! I stand 'no rogue's sets hen, if they an
tolerated in London. I will have my pennyworth for my penny.

Mercy to women :
Peterbormagh, this day, 2 December, 1643.—Dear Priend,—l think
I have heard yen iay that you had a relstim In the Nunnery at
Loughborough. Pray, if you lore her, remove her speedily; and I
send you a pose, —as we bare orders to dernolkh It, and I must not
dispute order: ;no !' —There is one of the Andrews' in it: take her
away. Nay give - their heed to go, if they value themselves. I bad
rather they did. nitre no warm women. Pray prevail en 101 to go,

symbolism :

am surprised at Maateiroe tow so. Mien, him this: If the men are
not of a mind to obey this order, I will cashier them, the whole troop.
I heed God's house as much as any man; but vanities and
trumpery give no honour God, nor idols serve him; neither do
painted windows make them more pious. Lot them do as parliament
bid them, or else go home,—and then others will be less careful to do
what we had done [might have done! with judgment.
Here is a practical speedy settlement of a question
of likes and dislikes.

We should be sorry to find these lettere a forgery.
They show us Oliver so near, in such a life-like,
active, watchful movement of common duties, so
"practical" a]together, that we should be loth to
relinquish an authority for our picture, when once it
has been fixed. We recommend this curious collec-
tion to all of our readers who wish to exercise their
power in cracking a literary nut, or are willing to lay
it up nncracked, with all faith, among their store of
" Cromwelliana." It is long since we have met with
any thing of the kind, forgery or genuine, which has
given us an hour's more agreeable and suggestive
employment.

JEttirlt Lutn.—A c Tes rodent (says the 06.
server) has communicated the ToVowing piece of informa-
tion respecting Jen Lind and her '• sayings and doings"
in her native city. hall be time therein narrated, wonder
is excited more at the idea albumen absurdity than at that
of artistic excellence. It Is hoped, however, that there is
some exaggeration in the 'errant furnished on this occasion,
and that, though high priors may have been paid to hear
that lady sing, the antemeliat " mob riot" is, to a great ex-
tent, matter of pure imagination.
