English LuTur5OtSneSS.-Few of us
whose lives are passed in republican SIM
plicity have any definite idea of the amount
of wealth and splendor that surrounds many
of the English mobiles in their princely resi-
dences. An American, writing from Eng
land describes some of these things:
The Earl Of Spencer's homestead about
60 miles from London, comprises ten thou
sand acres, tastefully divided into parks,
meadows, pastures, woods, and gardens
His library contains fifty thousand Volumes
Extensive and elegant stables, greenhouses
and censervatories, game keepers house,
dairy-house, dog-kennels, porter's lodge,
and farn-houses without number, 90 to COM
plete the establishment Hundreds of
Sheep and cattle Craze in the parks about
the house.
The Duke of Rchmonds home-farm, at
Goodwood, so miles from London, consists
of 5000 acres or over % square miles
And this is in crowded England which has
population of 100000 and an area Of
only $4,000 square miles or $4,000 900 of
acres, giving, were the land equally divided,
but two acres to each inhabltant. The res
idence Of the duke is perfect palace. One
extensive hall is covered with yellow silk
and pictures in the richest and most costly
tapestry. The dishes and plates upon the
table are all OF porcelain, silver, and gold
Twenty-Five race-horses stand III the stable,
each being assigned to the care OF a special
groom 4 grotto near the house the ladies
spent six years in adorning, An aviary Is
supplied with almost every kind of rare and
elegant birds Large herds Of cattle, sheep,
and deer are spread over the immense lawns
The Duke of Devonshire's place, at
Chatsworth, is said to exceed in magnifcence
any in the kingdom.-The income Of the
Duke is one million Of dollars year, and
he is said to spend it all. In the grounds
about his house are kept four hundred head
of cattle and 400 deer The kitchen
garden contains twelve acres, and is filed
with almost every species Of fruits and vege-
tables. A vast GrbOrctWDa connected with
the establishment is designed to contain a
sample of every tree that grows. There Is
also a glass conservatory 3S7 feet in length,
Il5 in breadth, 67 in height covered by
10000 square feet Of 6 lass and warmed by
seven miles of pipes conveying hot water.
One plant was obtained from India by a
special messenger, and is valued at $4,000.
One of the fountains near the house plays
276 feet high said to be the highest jet in
the world. Chatsworth contains 3,5O0
acres. but the Duke owns $4,000 acres in
the county of Derbyshire. Within, the en-
tire is one vast scene Of paintings sculpture,
mosaic work, carved wainscoting, and all
the elcgancies and Injuries within the reach
of almost boundless wealth and refined taste.

\ TENPERANCE LEssoN.-The story runs
thus: 1t was told by the Rev. j. r. Owen,
A. NJ, at recent lecture in Liverpool:
A Manchester calico printer was, on his
wedding day, persuaded by his wife to al
low her two half-pints of ale a day as her
share. He rather WINGED under the bargain;
for. though drinker himself, he would have
preferred a perfectly sober wi3e. They
both worked hard; and he, poor man, was
seldom out of public-house as soon as the
factory closed. The wife and husband saw
little OF each other except at breakfast;
but as she kept things tidy about her, and
made her stinted, and even selfish, allow
ance for housekeeping meet the demands
upon her, he never complained. She had
her daily pint and he, perhaps, had ms two
or three quarts; and neither intertered
with the other, except at odd times she sue
ceeded By one little gentle artifice or an
other, to win him home an hour or two ear
Iier. at night, and now and then to spend an
entire evening in his own house. But these
were rare occasions They had been mar
red a wear: and on the morning OF the
wedding anniversary, the husband looked
aszance at her neat and comely person
with some shade of remorse, as he observed,
Mary, wen had no holyday sin we were
wed; and only that l hav'nt a penny /
tn world, we'd take a jaunt to tn village
to see mother "Would'st like to 90,
.yohn!' asked she softly, between a smile
and tear, to hear him speak kindly as in
old times. IF thee'd like to 90, John I'll
stand treat" Thou stand treat" said be-
with half a sneer, has got FORUM wench!
'.Nav." said she, but Tn got the pint o ale"
Gotten what" said he. 1.-The pint o aie."'
was the reply John didn't understand till
the faithful creature reached down an old
stocking from under loose brick in the
chimney. and counted out her daily pint OF
ale, in the shape Of 800 three-pences, Il. c.
"a lis. Sd, and put it into his hand, ex-
claiming, ''Thee shall have thy holiday,
John" John was ashamed, astonished con-
science smitten and charmed. He would
not touch it. Hasn't thee had thy share
then I'll ha' no MORE" he said. They kept
their wedding-day with the old dame; and
the wife's little capital was the nucleus of a
series of investments that ultimately SWELL
ed into shop, factory, warehouse, country
seat, carriage, and for aught Mr.. Owen
knew, John was mayor of his native borough
at last.

Lore at first sight.-Lovc at first sight
was exemplifed in Raphael. His window
overlooked the garden Of the adjoining house,
and there he saw the lovely girl who amused
herself among her flowers; he saw her lave
her beautiful feet in the lake; he fell passion
atelv in love. He soon made his feelings
known; his love was not rejected, and she be-
came his wife He is said to have been SO
passionately enamored OF her beauty that he
never could paint if she were not by his side.
The lineaments of that fair face still live IN
some of his sublime productions; and thus,
while she gave inspiration, he conferred I'M
mortality Ladies' Champion.

HogQyth'S Picture Of the Red Sci
Hogarth was once applied to by a misery
old nobleman, to paint on his staircase rep
resentation of the destruction Of Pharaoh's
hosts in the Red Sea- In attempting to fix
upon the price, Hogarth became quite dis
satisfied The mser was unwilling to give
more than one-half the real value of the
picture At last, Hogarth, out of all pa
tience, agreed to his patrons terms
Within a day or two the picture was
ready. The nobleman was surprised at such
expedition and Immediately called to ex-
anime It, The canvass was painted all over
red.
"Zounds!," said the purchaser, what
have you here! [ ordered scene Of the
Red Sea-
'The Red Sea you have" said Hogarth,
still smarting to have his talents underval-
ued.
But where are the Israelites?"
They are all gone over
and where are the Egyptians
"They arc all drowned
The miser's confusion could only be
equalled by the haste with which he paid his
bill. The bitter was bit.

"CAN YOU REACH THEM PARTATERsn'-
Several gentlemen of the Massachusetts,
Legislature, dining at the Boston Hotel, one
of them asked Mr. NJ, a gentleman who sat
opposite
"Can you reach them partators, sir?''
Mr.. ". extended his arm towards the
dish, and satisfied himself that he could
reach the ''partaters, and answered.
''Y es, sir
The legislator was taken aback with the
unexpected rebuff from the wag; but pres
emily recovering himself he asked
"Will you stick my fork into one on 'em,
them"
Mr.. NJ took the fork, and very coolly
plunged it into a very finely cooked potatoe,
and left IL there!'
The company roared as they took the
Joke, and the victim looked more foolish than
before but suddenly an idea struck.

with an air of conscious triumph:
"Now, Mr.. NJ, viii trouble you for tie

the potatoe, and returned it, amidst an un-

The invention of the patent has saved
great deal of trouble When the manu-
facture of Dresden china was in its infancy
discovery was made by person engaged
in its fabrication, which enabled him to pro-
duce better article than any OF his competl-
tors. From that time his manutactory be-
came fortress; the portculls was down day
and night Every workman was sworn to
secrecy; the superior officers were sworn ev-
cry month. Dumb till death was inscrlb-
ed IN large letters within all the workshops
and imprisonment for life the penalty de-
nounced all against tale-bearing. The King
himself took oath of secrecy concerning all
that he might see whenever he visited the fac
tory. Had the discovery been made a CEN
tury later, the inventor would have just taken
out patent, invited the members of the
press to call in to witness the new operation,
and then to describe it to The crest of Europe.

SHAKsPEARIAv DIscovERY.--A letter in
the New York Times from Its London cor
respondent alludes to an old copy of Shak-
speare, printed in 1852, containing margin
al corrections of the text and punctuations,
to a very large extent.
The volume has been submitted by Mr..
Collier to the Shakespeare Society, the most
learned sages of whom consider the said
corrections to have been made on the au-
thority of purer text than that of any edi-
ton now to be met with, and one of indis-
putable authority. Considering the i'm
mense labor and pains bestowed on the
plays OF our great dramatist, and the scruti-
ny to which every line has been subjected,
it is almost ludicrous to observe the blum
ders which have been allowed to remain,
and which are now made apparent by the
mysterious volume in question. If it should
be finally received as the true gospel ac-
cording to Shakespeare, it is pretty clear that
new edition of his works viii be necessary.

ONE OR TWO.
By L. VIRGINIA SMITH.

Are we one, my sister dearest9
One. or two, my azure-eyed,
Sunny-hearted gipsy-fairest,
Little laughter-loving Lide?
Like the fabled Star" and Stella"
To the morn and even sun,
Don't you think, sweet Zingarella,
That our spirits are but one!
Brightly blending shall we frame them
Into Springs Eolian tune,
Or disporting softly, name them
Laughing May and smiling June?
Like the sunshine and and the shower,
That in flashing Jewels run
Through one golden April hour,
So our spirits are but one.
Jov to them is like the springing
OF the birdling's choral swell,
Sweetly wild, and softly ringing,
With Ginning matin bell.
And when DER them sadly linger
Shadows of the lovely flown,
Sorrows pale and tear-dewed finger
Writes them aye are one."
Long ago our gentle mother
Sought the sunny spirit land,
And we never had brother
So we wander, hand, in hand,
Through liie's labarynthne mazes,
Where to guide US there are none;
Yet, amid its thousand phases,
Still our spirits are bat one.
Smile, my love- the great All-seelng
Is our Father and we bow
To the land which gave us being
AS our noble mother now,
PhiIlared fame and cloud before US,
Through the wilderness begun,
They shall Journey, watching Ger us.
That our spirits may be one,
have often thought if only
| could pass from earth with you,
That our hearts would ne'er be lonely,
If in Heaven we were but two.
Yet deeper bliss is given
Us to know, our mission done,
As on earth, so in the Heaven
Shall our spirits be but one.

its ivy never-sear kindly over the mansion,
and let not the winds blow harshly against
it; for the great master is gone, and will return
no more Ye cannot make the place what

They showed US the apartments which
are thrown open to visitors We had
letters, but we asked no privilege there
which may not be accorded to all. We
saw the hall, the drawng-room, the parlor,
and the diDing-room, with the richly-sculp-
tured mantel-piece which La Fayettc gave

AS we passed out under the open sky
they pointed out to US the chamber where
Washington died. We looked up to the
windows. They showed us the lemon-tree
he planted; it is old, but it is green STILL
and many plants in the conservatory,
with long box alleys and large squares and
page-bushes, all planned and planted by his
hand.
Down the green slope towards the river,
not far from the bank, they showed us
WAsHNGroN's TOMB. We slowly and rev.
erently gathered there, and bowed before it,
in gratitude, silence, and tears.
As the sun was going down the western
sky, fringing the edges OF the clouds with
cold we entered our boat, and sailed slowly
by, under the lengthing shadow Of the sacred
groves which cluster their foliage around

Pleasant PfopAccy-Fry, in his last
letter from Paris, gives promise OF climate
that is CHARMING
ut has been noticed for the last twenty
years that the climate Of the temperate zone
is gradually becoming more equable, and that
of late the extremes OF heat and cold IN
winter and summer are decidedly less severe.
A circumstance somewhat corroborat!ve Of
this theory is this: Earthquakes are coming
north. We are being led to an acquaintance
with some OF the monopolies of the torrid
zone They have felt serious shock at
Bordeaux, where never, in the memory Of
man, was one ever felt before. 1t lasted
eight seconds, and did remarkable deal
of work, considering the time it had to do
it in. 1t began with an explosion and finish
ed with three oscillations from south to north.
Pictures trembled upon the walls; tumblers
slid off from the shelves and broke; the
glass windows of churches shivered into
splinters: clocks that were going were stop
ped, and others that had stopped were set
going. 1t was two o'clock at night and the
horizon was lurid red, as if the last rays
OF confagration were still lingering in the
atmosphere. In the surrounding country,
the cattle were as frightened as the men,
and uttered low murmurs and complaints.
Perhaps this earthquake is visiting France,
charged with terrible errand. The Red
Sea was commissioned to swallow Pharaoh
and his hosts; the whale was sent to swallow
Jonah; why should not an earthquake be
debuted to swallow Mr.. Bonaparte! Let
us hope that it will make mistake and
take the wrong man; and that it will not
miss its aim like that sharpe-shooter OF Vim
cennes."

Both old and young inploring him.
To grant some brief delay.

Or near that sparkling fountain
Where the waters wimple down.

The Sultan at Catholic Wedding.-
The Courier de Marsetlles states that
the Sultan has attended the solemniza-
ton of the marriage, according to the
rites of the Roman Catholic Church,
between the son of M. F. with the
daughter of the Prince of B. The
report has long been spread that the
Sultan intended to be present at this
ceremony, but no one would believe
that thing Sd unprecedented could
take place. Tie Sultan, however, ar
rived at the nuptial mansion without
ceremony, escorted by two horsemen
only, followed by few domestics. He
was received with gratitude by the
clergy and the family of the bride and
bridegroom. A throne was prepared
for him. and after he had taken coffee
and smoked the sacramental pipe, the
ceremony commenced. His Majesty
stood up the whde time, saying that he
ought not to hear the name OF the Al
mighty God called upon in any other
position.
