JERROLD'S 0.14 VA

(From the Leadsr.)
The funeral of Douglas Jerrold, which took place
in Norwood Cemetery ces Monday last, wee In all respects a
fitting end characteristic tribute to his memory. There was
too much nal grid amongst those present for soy prude
of ccemstkaal mourning, end everything connected with
the arm' wee quiet, *Mph, and impressive. The mastery

which foe yews but • ism, tumultuous' musk on the brain

inland murmur of a shell. He Mops smiclat the summer
blooms and waving shadows that he loved. For you cannot

of city life, Jerrold had a poet's fondness for wild
dowers, green bads, rustle moos, and bah country

The .amber and dumb: of the soottrases who followed
hie body to the tomb were a liviag epitaph an the deceased,
more eloquent and exiling thm may words could be. The
funeral was private, and the place al burislbeing distant and
ttleleatt of cross, It was astarally thought that compass-

lively few would iss present. Whit the Uception, however,
of cos or two hiss& unavoidably absent through illness cs
distance, the mourners at the grays included all who knew bins
or who were connected with Moe in any way, from the most
distinguished members of his own profession to the proe-
m= and compositors from the pointing office, who ware now
and then cheered at their work by his kindly word sad

some who might have wished to be present. It wee the first

sod actors from vatioaa theatres, leading publishers, headed
by the veteran Chutes Knight, while every department of
literature wee represented by some of its foremost men, who
bad numbered Jerrold amongst their chosen friends. Such
a gathering at his grave is a sufficient sneerer to all that bee
been acid by covert slander or open hostility of his vindictive,
bitter nature. That le, indeed, but the cuckoo cry of cold-
hearted end shallow critics
