GYPSIES IN ENGLAND.—ShortIy after their
first arrival in England, which is upwards of threads;
tallies since, a dreadful persecution was raised age
them, the aim of which was their utter extermiriatioutib,
the being a gypsy was esteemed a crime worth ?.of de3t
and the gibbets of England groaned and creaked be-
neath the weight of gypsy carcasses, and the tnise,i_c
able survivors were literally obliged to creep
earth in order to preserve their lives. But these (.I:.:C*
passed' by ; their persecutors became weary of pure d.
ing them ; they showed their heads from the holes all'
caves where they had hidden themselves, theh
ventured forth, increased in numbers, and, es. 4 „
tribe or family choosing a particular circuit, OIL.'
fairly divided the land among them. In England
male gypsies are all de. niers in horses, -and Sow
times employ their idle tune in mending the tin ar''
into irl.,
copper utensils of the peasantry ; the females tell f?r-
tunes. They generally pitch their tents in the the
of of a village or small town by- the. road side under thd
shelter of the hedges And trees- The climate of Englan t,
.is well known to be favourable to beauty, and in no Par
of the world is the appearance of the gypsies so prf
' possessing as in that count:7 ;_their complexion is dar''
but not disagreeably so, then' faces are oval, their fe.::
tures regular, their foreheads :'other low, and their hand'
and feet small. The men are taller than the Ell'llisb-
it he
peasantry, and far more active. They all spea: the
English language with fluency ruid in their gait 'l'd,
demeanour are easy and graceful ; in both points slae h
ing in striking contrast with the pea minty, who in .sPI
are slow and uncouth, and in manner sagged and brat •

A FAIR IN CONNAUGHT.— r love to ,? ,

meetings and greetings of the kind-heart ed people, to

that most picturesque group, when I could

colour in the costumes, which I wish they woolen -ost

specimen of manly vigour, a little vTather-beaten to al
