TENNYsoN AT HOME.-A private letter IN
the New York Citizen says:
We crossed to Cowes, and took a fly to Far
ringtord, distant twelve miles; glorious drive
across the Isle OF Wight, between ivied hedges
and passed gardens of laurel and laurustinus. l
found Earringford wonderfully improved. The
little park is gem of gardening art. The
magnificent Roman ilexes in front OF the house
are finer than any l saw in Italy. We ar
rived about clock, and were ushered into
the drawing room. The house has been re-
furnished, and great many pictures aud stat
ues added since | was there. In minute IN
came 1'ennyson cordial as an old friend, fol-
lowed by his wife, as sweet as ever, but teebler
and older looking. In Tennyson himself L
could see no particular change. We walked
through the pagk and garden; then be and L
went upon the downs, and walked tor miles
along the chalk cliffs above the sea. He showed
me his newly acquired territory-amOng the
rest a great stretch of wheat fields bought for
him by Enoch Arden. We dined at six, in a
quaint room hung with pictures, and then went
into the drawingroom for dessert.
Tennyson, and | retired to his study at the
top Of his house, lit pipes, and talked of poet
ry He asked me if L could read his 'Boadi
cea" | thought | could. ''Read it and let
me see, said he. II would rather hear you
read it, answered. Thereupon he did so,
chanting the numbering lines with great unc-
ton. [ spoke OF the idyl of "Guinivere as
being perhaps the finest poem. and said that l
could not read it aloud without my voice fail
ing me at certain passages. why, can read
it and keep my voice." he exclaimed, trium-
phantly. This doubted and he agreed to
try alter he went down. But the first tning he
did was TO produce a magnum OF wonderful
sherry, thirty years old, which had been sent
him by poetic wine dealer. Such wine |
never tasted. 1T was meant to be drank by
Cleopatra or Catherine OF Russia, said Tenny-
son. We had two glasses apiece. when he
said. ''to night you shall help me to drink one
of the few bottles of my Waterloo-lSl5. We
will make a night of it" The bottle was
brought and, after another glass all round,
Tennyson took up the ''IdylS OF the King.
His reading is a strange monotonous chant,
with unexpected falling infections, which |
cannot describe, but can initiate exactly. 1t
is very impressive, In spite of myself | became
very much excited as be went on. Finally,
when Arthur forgives the Queen, TcnnySOn's
and-and Mrs. Tennyson were crying on
either side of me. lie made an effort, and
went on to the end, closing grandly. "How
can you say" asked. referring to previous
conversation, that you have no surety of per-
mancnt fame? This poem will only die with
the language in which it is written. Mrs.
Tennyson started up from her couch. 'It is
true, she exclaimed, 81 have told Alfred the
same thing" After that we had more sherry;
in fact finished the Waterloo bottle; then went
up to the garret to smoke and talk. Tenny-
son read the ''Hyas" of Theocritus, in Greek;
his own Northern Farmer" and Andrew
Marvelrs "Coy Mistress" We parted at
o'clock.

Said the naughty Countess of - to an
