Il is well worth while /.

1t is well worth while to
save your papers and have them
bound. A few years will make
it the most entertaining volume
you can possess. All the laws
of association make it more or
less a history Of yourself and
friends. Names, dates, facts,
are preserved for you in the
most accessible manner. Over
1t you may cry at your follies,
and rejoice in view of the facts
that led you to prosperity. 1t
records the history ola town,
or county, and this is but an
epitome of universal history.

Y......... v N0VEMBER2 q, 1873,



Americans abroad have so often
and 1 tear SO justly--been charged
with snobbery To titles, that it's pleas
ant To hear of any exception, especial
" where ii is contrary TO the general
impression. One seems to present
itself in the case Of our countryman
and poet, Joaquin Miller. / amHcred-
IDLY informed that the various mem
hers of the aristocraCy have invited
HIM to gvisit them at their country
mansions without success, and that be
even declined to enter into a special
arrangement planned by Mr. Glad
stone to have him meet the Prince Of
Wales at dinner at his (the Prime
Minister's) house. Mr.. Gladstone has
great admiration for Mr.. Miller, and
has invited him to pass some weeks
at Hawarden castle, an invitation
however, OF which the poet did not
avail himself. I learn also that the
report Of the same authors prospec-
tive marriage with the daughter Of a
well known baronet is untounded.
Mr.. Miller is intimate with Lord
Houghton, but Fryeton Hall is more
distinguished by the poetry Of Monck-
/. ton Mines than by the title which its
author now wears. 1t is, however, a
remarkable fact Of which DR.. Knealy
might make use, that the wild poetry
Of the forest which Mr.. Miller writes
is chiefly admired by the arlstocracy.
1t is said there is not country man.
sion or castle on whose table may not
be found just now, Songs of the Sier-
ras' and Life Among the Modocs.
Nothing suits the blase English aris-
tocracy better than dare deyiltry.
The more plodding middle-class peo-
pie regard some ofMr. Miller's stories
as mythical, and even huge but the
aristocracy are not very critical, and
rejoice in man who has seen life.'
The most palatial mansions in the
country are apt to be haunted by the
demon of dullness between Summer
and the season-nearly six months
and some Of the demurest young Ia
dies pacing their corridors will some
times be counting that day lost whose
low descending sun witnesses no wor-
thy action done--that is no perilous
leap ofher horse in the run after a
deer and, and no hour passed in the
persual ofthe hair breadth 'scapes of
some Adventurous fellow like T Nil.
