Willis and Morris---The only Misunderstan /


Willis and Norris The only Misunderstan
ING THEY EVER HAD.
Mr.. Morris Phillips is Boswelling" N
P. Willis in the Home Journal in an enter
tanning manner. This week he gives SOM
particulars Of the late poets way of writing
"lt is stated that Mr.. Willis was almos
punctlllous in the matter of having his article
appear just as he wrote them, word for word
letter for letter, photography and all. H
carried this idea to such an extent that on on,
occasion, when printer took liberties with hi:
manuscript, he was extremely angry, and
warned "the foreman that such thine
must never occur again. He said
MY copy must be followed if insert a
comma in the middle of word do you place
it there, and ask no questions"
1.-The sincere friendship and fond attach
ment that existed, for so many years, between
the two editors, George z. Morris and N. P
Willis, it is scarcely necessary to speak of al
this late day. Their love for each other is a
matter of literary history, and has been the
wonder and admiration of the whole reading
world. It will strengthen the foregoing argu-
ment, regarding the remarkable characteristic
Of Mr.. Willis, to say that, probably, the only
misunderstanding Or disagreement which &C.
CURED during the whole of their literary life
and business association, was caused by Gen
Morris altering the phraseology of a paragraph
in one of Mr.. Wilis's articles. So annoyed
was he at this seemingly small matter that he
penned the following letter to General Morris,
dated at 1dlewid, about ten years since:
My DEAR MoRRIs-I send my article for
next weeks paper, so that the compositors
may have it for Monday morning l MUST
SEE PROOF of this, and l particularly re-
quest that you will take no such liberty with
copy or proof as you took with my last COM
municatlon (inclosed.) would not stay one
wee a partner with man who ventured to
alter word Of my copy and send it to press
without my knowledge. I was angry with
you for weeks of my illness, for the inclosed
liberty with what I send, and nothing but
remembrance of your generous and faithful
qualities as friend prevented my open rupture
with you.
Il give you this mere hint of what was a
quarrel on my part-suppfessed
with the irritability of sickness with great
difficulty.
Il will never NEEDLE with YOUR manuscript
without your permission may never med
die with mine.
"With love enough for you to smother an
angry resentment, remain. now, as always,
Faithfully yours, N. p. WILLIS"
Gen. Morris proved his love for Mr.. Willis
BY not replying to this letter, but simply wrote
IN the back of it =: Il WOULD HAVE RECEIVED
THIS FROM NO OTHER MAN LIVING"

Mr.. Jesse, in his Memoirs of the Life and
belgn OF George III, refers to a visit to the
Queens Lodge, the old Palace at Kew, ia
yorlte residence of the King in his old days.
When, many years since, the author wander
ed throug h the forsaken apartments of the oFd
palace at Kew, he found, it apparently IN pre-
clselv the same condition as when George Ill
had made it his summer residence and when
queen Charlotte had expired within its walls.
There was formerly to be seen a relic Of no
small lnterest-the Private Prayer Book of
George III. In the prayer which is used dur
ing the session of Parliament, the King, with
his own hand, had oblterated the words :" our
most religious and gracious King and had
substituted for them, g most miserable sin
ner.''

Dickens TO Arrive In New York To- Days
BosToN, Dec. 6--This evening Mr.. Dickens
gave the last of the series of readings an
nounced for this city. IL comprised Little
Dombey and the Plckwick Trial Nearly al
readers of fiction know well the spirit OF
touching tenderness that pervades those chap
ters OF "Dombey & Son" which recount the
life and death of Little Paul,
No piece could more test reader in the finer
requirements of his art In the less striking
transitions from vein to vein, where nothing Is
extTavaRant and where there is no possible op-
portunity to take refuge In the broad and easy
appeals TO applause. In no piece has Dickens
been more successful His voice, flexible and
sensitive in the highest degree, presents the
general narrative, the speech of Little Paul and
Flroence, with the most natural feeling, and
runs by such an easy flow into the quaintness
ofToots that 1t Is impossible To analyze how the
change has come over us or to say where we
began TO feel the disposition to indulge such
laughter as the character provokes. 1t Is a rarer
ability to be able tBread this piece up to its
proper standard than to write IL. It was re-
ceived with deep attention that was full of
sympathy with its spirit.
Dombey was followed by the Pickwick Trial
the only repetition in the course. No piece
could better bear repetition, certainly, than
the one in which we meet such staunch favor
ties as w eller and Winkle, or look upon the be
wildered gravity of Justice Stareleigh.
Thus closed the Boston readings. Mr.. Dickens
will leave for New York tomorrow, in order to
be comfortably bestowed and well rested for his
appearance on Monday nightly. y Herald
