ANEcDoTE OF THE DUKE OF PORTLAND MIR.
Hewitt gives the following interesting anecdote of
the Duke of Portland:
The Duke found that one of his tenants, small
farmer was falling year after year into arrears of
rent. The steward wished to know what was to
be done. The Duke rode to the farm, saw that it
was rapidly deteriorating, and the man, who was
really an experienced and Industrious farmer, to-
tally unable to manage it through poverty. In
fact, all that was on the farm was not enough to
pay the arrears 'John," says the Duke, as the
farmer came to meet him, as he rode up to the
house, ~ want to look over the farm Il litte.'
As they went along, Really said he, every
thing is in very bad case. This won't do. see

/ must do. | must take the farm into my own
hands. You shall look after it for me, and / will
pay you your wages" OF course, there was no
saying nay-the poor man bowed assent. Presently
there came reinforcement OF stock then loads of
manure at the proper time seed, and wood from
the plantations for repairing gates and buildings.
The Duke rode over frequently. The man exerted
himself. and seemed really quite relieved from a

order. In two or three rent days it was seen by
the stewards books that the farm paying its

John, | think the farm does very well now. We
will change again. You shall be tenant again,
and, as you now have your head fairly above water,
hope you will be able to keep it there" The
Duke then rode off at his usual rate. The man
stood in astonishment; but happy fellow he was
when on applying to the steward, he found that he
was actually reentered as tenant to the farm Just
as it stood in its restored condition. ] will venture
to say, however, that the Duke was the happier
