LyirE DUKE OF EDIIv7BUI?GH AT THE
CAPE.

The Duke of Edinburgh spent the Christmas and the
New Year season at the Cape of Good Hope. A local
paper says : " The time has been for the last fortnight
almost entirely taken up with the Christmas and New
.Year festivities, to which special zest has been given on
this occasion by the presence of his Royal Highness the
Duke of Edinburgh. The Galatea arrived in Simon's
Bay on the afternoon of Christmas Day. It was under-
stood to be the Duke's request that on this occasion
his visit should be considered as quite private and
tiruacial ; and that request has been acted up to
with excellent good taste. He has been received
everywhere with the heartiest cordiality ; he has
moved about as he pleased, almost . incognito ;
and we believe that he has enjoyed his stay very thoroughly.
On the day after his arrival he drove up to Capetown, to
visit the Governor, and returned to Simon's Bay the same
afternoon, calling upon several old friends along the route.
Sunday he was on board his ship ; Monday and Tuesday
he was up in town and at Government house. On
Wednesday night he was entertained there at a
fashionable ball given by his Excellency the Governor.
Thursday evening he was entertained at a soiree
musicale, given by P. G. Vanderbyl, Esq., at
Rondebosch. Friday (New Year's) night, a bril-
liant ball was given him by the 99th Regiment. On
Saturday he inspected the progress of the breakwater
works in Table Bay, and afterwards visited the cricket
match at Wynberg, between the military and the civi-
lians. Yesterday morning (January 3) he returned to his
ship in Simon's Bay. On the evening of January 4 them
was a farewell ball given to his Royal Highness by Cool.
modore Randolph, at Simon's Town. The Galatea was to
have proceeded on the morning of the sth on her cruise
eastward, calling first at Western Australia. She was,
however, detained throughout the day by a heavy south,
east gale having set in, but was expected to leave that
night.'

A YANKEE VISIT TO TENNYSON.

-41.-

The New York Citizen publishes a "private" letter from
a wandering Yankee who lately acted the part of Paul Pry
in the Laureate's house at Faringford, in the Isle of Wight.
Mr. Tennyson having shewn his guest his "newly-acquired
territory," in the shape of wheat-fields, bought by the
poet out of the proceeds of "Enoch Arden," our possibly
too imaginative visitor continues :—" We dined at
six, in a quaint room hung with pictures, and then
went into the drawing-room for desert. Tennyson
and I retired to his study at the top of the
house, lit pipes, and talked of poetry. I spoke of the idyll
of ' Guinevere' as being perhaps his finest poem, and that
I could not read it aloud without ply voice failing me
at certain passages. ' Why, I can read it and keep my
voice,' he exclaimed triumphantly. This I doubted, and
he agreed to try after we went down. But the first thing
he did was to produce a magnum of wonderful sherry,
.thirty years old, which had been sent to him by a poetic
wine dealer. Such wine I never tasted. It was meant
to be drunk by Cleopatra or Catherine of Russia,' said
Tennyson." As yet they bad not exceeded the two
glasses. After this " Tennyson and I " did a bottle of
the poet's " Waterloo, 1815," the author of " Guinevere"
saying "We will make a night of it." A glass all
round, and we are told Tennyson took up the
" Idylls of the King " Finally, when Arthur forgives the
Queen, Tennyson's voice fairly broke. " I found tears
on my cheeks, and -- and Mrs. Tennyson were crying
on either side of me. He made an effort and went on to
the end, closing grandly. • Ilow can you say,' I asked,
that you have no surety of permanent fame ? This poem
will only die with the language in which it is written.'
Mrs. Tennyson started up from her couch. It is true,'
she exclaimed ; I have told Alfred the same thing.' "
After this " Tennyson and I," of course, had more drink,
and then went up to the garret to smoke and talk. Then
311 r. Tennyson, if we are to believe our authority, after
tiaving read his own poems to a guest the best part of a
whole night, wound up with Andrew Marvell's " Coy
Witness." " Tennyson and I" parted "at two o'clock. 7.
