Judge Goulds companions were Hen ry Smith, counsellor-at-law, and two other persons.

night lamp, but objectivey as well as subiec-
lively, lights the gas. In short, "love in cot.
tage" has become picture of almost fabulous
antiquity, and the true novel for the times must
wind up in palatial residence
If we 90 on at this rate all sentiment and
simplicity will vanish from the household.
Our homes will be woven together into one i'm
mense hotel, drawing light, heart and water
from the same source, and it may be, from the
same material. The whole domestic picture
will have an air Of labor-saving conlrivance and
elegant mechanism, with cushioned cars, noise
lessy gliding from cellar to attic; locomotive
dumb walters circulating with stiff gravity
through the table ritual, steam calliopes dis
coursing musical asthmas in the parlor, and
nimble sewing machines performing miracles Of
fancy needle work. The genius of improve
ment will have driven out the spirit of romance
from its last refuge and birth place, and home
itself be left dsenchanted
In the meantime, however, let us be consoled
with the reflection that what we are losing in
poetry, we are gaining in comfort rnd elegance ;
and that as physical convenienccs are multiplied
and diiiused, the means of domestic refinement
and social amclioration will be proportionably
increased. The masses now live as luxuriously
as their rulers of a century ago, and century
hence they may have learned how to beft, as
well as to procure, the style of sovereignty
