Journalistic Bohemiaus.

A Washington correspondent of Charles
ton paper gives the following picture Of
the Representatives ofthe Press" at the
Capitol: ~. H.. ,.. adi ...d..
''Then come the last class, the Bohemians,
or Press Gipsies,' who muster about score
generally gentlemen of some literary and
often social position at their respective
homes, whose especial aversion Is regular en-
ployment. They use the pen TO gain,a liveli-
hood, and they like the. careless, excited,
somewhat debauched atmosphere of this city.
Secretaries use their genius, Congressmen
pay them to write speeches (the price for an
hour speech is S5O) and they reign in the
hotel saloons with undisputed sway. Some
Of them are correspondents, but they segard
it as miserable condition of existenceto be
eternally on the qaf UiUe, and despise the
fabrication of caRdrds as unworthy of hon
orable men. The Potiphar family look up to
them with reverence, the diplomatic people
rather court their society, staid fathers and
stern patriots view them with contempt, and
they, in their own charmed circles, laugh at
all. You will therefore perceive that the OBJ
tainment of good Washington correspond
ents--menof capacity, opportunity character,
and sound State right views, is like one Of
the labors ofancient Hercules, almost the
accomplishment of impossibilities.

Litetnry Madness and Dishonesty Of n
DibIiOmaniac. ...

The foreign papers report that recently, at
Ldpsic, "a case of singular monomania led
tda most deplorable result. DR.. Lindner, a
Professor of Theology at the University of
tlat town, was tried for the purloining of
manuscripts from the Academical Library,
ind sentenced to six years penal imprison-
ment. The unfortunate man had allowed
himself to become the slave of paramount
passion for old parchment. To know fine,
rotten and worm-eaten codox within his
reach, yet not in his possession, was too much
for the moral strength of this servant, other
wise of firreproachable character. Beginning
with the abstraction of one or two remark
ally fine pages from some manuscript or
other he gradually proceeded to entire vol
umss, and, during space of four years, de-
spoiled the library of great number of
priceless rarities. This, though it might have
eventually brought about his expulsion from
the University, would have scarcely subjected
the bibliomaniac to the penalties of the
criminal law. But, with a looseness of prin-
ciple which the jury found it impossible
to overlook, DR.. Lindner occasionally bar
gained away his il-gotten treasures for 9TH
ers, receiving the difference in money when
ever there was disparity in the value of the
manuscripts exchanged. But for the great
liberty granted to German professors in the
use ot public libraries, his criminal proceed
ings must have been discovered long ago,
as his dishonesty was certainly not greater
than his folly and the want of the most Or
binary caution"

Lineage of the Last ElOpius BeIsrnvinn


y Miss Isabella Greeves, whose elopement
rom Belgrave Square we noticed last week,
says The Court Circular, is descended from a
mort eccentric ancestor-Mr. Greeves Hoskin,
of Penzance, singular man in his way and
who Married the young lady's grandmother
under very peculiar circumstances. Mr..
HoskiAwas farmer, possessed of someprop-
erty, which he accumulated on farm at
Ludgvan, Several years after his marriage
he parted from his wife in fit of jealousy,
occasionally her allowing salute from a
male relative going abroad. The quarrel
was never nhde up, and he afterward lived
in great selusion. = He evidenced little
respect for thetorms of religion, and, in con-
sequence ofa dispute with the clergyman of
the parish, declNed that he should not be
inferred in the church-yard. In furtherance
of this determination, he fixed on a spot as
the resting placeof his mortal remains, on a
hill near the ruinspf an ancient tower called
Castle Dennis, from which there is view of
both .channels. Here he inclosed a small
space with a wall, AMI at each end fixed a
tablet; on the one there was engraved, "Cus-
tom is the idol Of fools;' and on the other,
Virtue only consecrates the ground" In
this spot his remains were deposited, and the
ipterment gave great offsnsc to the bishop of
the diocese. . ..r.r 4f.-....... , an ..

Charles Dickens on DIusic and Musicians


Charles Dickens on Music and Musicians.
Charles Dickens, at the late annual meet
ing Of the Royal Society of Musicians, in Lon
don, in proposing the toast of the evening,
said: 81 I'd.
This society managed its own affairs, and
that in q manner so excessively ungenteel
that it only paid two small salaries for real
work, while the governors actually paid the
expenses of their own meetings out of their
own pockets, This appeared to him great
recommendation, and he feared that great
excitement would be provoked in the coun-
ellis of certain literary institution, if any
ferocious parsonage like himself (Mr. Dick
ens) should have the audacity to propose that
its affairs should be managed like those of
the Royal Society Of Musicians.
This good story of the British musicians,
like the stories told by Scheherazade in the
Arabian Nights, had now been going on for
a hundred and twenty-five nights, but it
might well go on for thousand and one
SO long as mankind lived and loved, SO long
as their nature was sensitive, affectionate and
grateful, music could never cease And
through all the sweet sounds they were to
hear that night one touching strain would
make itself audible to their souls, reminding
them that the hand could not always keep its
hold on the bow, the strings, or the keys; that
the melodlous breath must one day 1alli ana
thus might helplessness and poverty befall
most undeservedly some of those players
who, though unknown to fame, and out OF
reach of the rewards and profits of their pro-
fession, were indispensable TO the success of a
great orchestral performance; the appealing
strain on behalf Of such poor and wornout
musician would then say 10 him and TO all
who were listening, "For the sake of the
much that music has done for you, do a little
for me-" He therefore proposed the toast,
Prosperity to the Royal Society Of Musi-
Clans" mI srI h9c %. Hm
This toast, and all the others, were drank
with cordial acclamations.
Mr. Dickens very amusingly denounced
''the savage custom of excluding the gentle
sex from the dinner table, and promised To
take the chair again next year II the commit
tee would place d lady on his right and an.
other on his left hand. fq % 10 A}'.' f-if
