Anecdotes 0fGeorge III.

Charles Knight, the originator OF
the Penny Magazine, was the son OF
bookseller in Windsor, near the Royal
palace, to whose shop the King FREE
quently came to look over the new
publications. One summer morning,
before the shop was fully opened, the
voice of the King was heard under the
windows, callings +" Knight Knight
Knight!n His father came down as
soon as possible, and found the King
deeply absorbed in reading a work
which had Gomez down in a parcel
from London the evening before.
What was his horror and consterna-
ton to discover that the King had
taken up Thomas Paine's Rights Of
Nan, in which the author defended
the French revolution, and attacked
the institution of monarchy. The
King continued to read for half an
hour, at the expiration of which he
laid down the book and left the shop
without a word but also without
ofiense, for he continued to be as
friendly and frequent visitor as be-
fore. Mr. Knight also reports that
the King was as much amused as any
one at the caricatures of the day, in
which he was broadly burlesqued, and
that he was quite capable of being
amused at Peter Pindar's poems of the
Apple Dumplings and Farmer
George He was indeed, in private
life, as good-natured and amiable a
gentleman as ever misgoverned
Kingdom or spoiled a family. MIR.
Knight tells an amusing story in
point. One evening, after having
Joined the family in the drawing
room, the King went back to the
library where he had been writing,
and found the wax candles still burn
ing. 1t was curious rule of the pal
ace, as of great houses generally in
that day, that wax candle should
never be lighted a second time, and
the unconsumed portions were usually
the perquisites of some servant or offi-
Ger of the household. These particu-
lar wax candles blazing away in the
Kings library were the perquisites of
the Kings page, named Clarke, whom
the King met on his retnrn to the
drawing-room. "Clarke, Clarke,p
said the King in his rapid manner,
"you should mind your perquisites.
blew out the candles" 1t cost the
English people at that time 100000 a
year to provide Windsor Castle with
wax candles. The government of the
Royal household was as wasteful and
corrupt as the city of New York used
to he.

MOTHER.

When she undid her hair at night
About the time for lying down,
She came and knelt / was so small
There in my bed, her curls did fall
All over me, light gold and brown.
fell leep amid her prayers,
Her fair young face (faroH IL seems1,
Her girlish voice, her kisses sweet,
The pattsr of b r busy feet,
Passed with me into charming dreams.
And when woke at merry morn,
Through her goll hair saw the sun
Flame strong, shine glad and gl6riiy
1 he great good world. Oh! meier can
Forget her words-"My darling one"
All! eheckered years since then have crept
Past her and me; and we have known
Some sorrow and much tempered JOY.
Far into manhood stands her boy,
And her gold hair snow-white is blown.
The world has changed by slow degrees,
And as old days recede, alas!
So u7uch of trouble have the new,
Those rare, far joys grow dim, seen through
Sad times, as through darkened glass.
But just this morning when woke
How lovingly my lips we're kissed!
How chaste and clear the sunlight shone
On mothers hair, like gold-dusi sown
Athwart thin clouds of silver mist!

Mr.. Curran was once engaged in a
legal argument. Behind him stood
his colleague, a gentleman whose per-
son was remarkably tall and slender,
and who had originally intended to
take orders. The Judge observed that
the case under discussion involved a
point of ecclesiastical law. "Then,"
said Curran, Il can refer your Lord
ship to high authority behind me,
who was once intended for the
church, though, in my opinion, he
was filter for the steeple.n

Still Working Against the City,

The Union is still working for Bracket
q Waite. trying to upset the public square
theory" It says:
I'VE simply believed that it would be
better to lose the pending suit, thereby up-
setting the public square theory and fall
ing back on the title in fee simple, which
would enable the city to sell the property.
Very simply" we should say. The
public square theory" certainly can never
be upset, except by the consent Of all abut-
ting proprietors, and we doubt of it can
except by consent Of every man who owns
property in the city,
The Union says it.has nothing to do with
the title Of the plaintiff, but wants to
compromise with man who has 10 title,
and the fail back on the title in fee sim
PILE This is enough to make a horse
laugh. 1t is thing which can't be done.
The original proprietcrs parted with their
title when they dedicated the ground as "a
public square. And the purchasers of
! abutting property acquired an interest in
square had been set apart for public use.
This is indisputable, and it is believed
that purchasers of adjoining property, to
the extent Of the city limits, also acquired
an interest in its being kept tas a public
square. At any rate there is no dispute
about the rights Of AUDITING proprietors to
permanently enjoin its use for any purpose
but public square. tits nonsense, there
fore, to talk about ''upsetting the public
square theory, for it can not be done.
The idea CT the Union is this: By 6
private agreement with Bracket & Waite
pay them $4,000 or $1,000 for a promise
of deed from Ruch; then make weak
defence--so weak that the case will e
against the city; and then take a deco
from Ruch, and then sell the ground n
such decision as that could be obtained
from any court, if the plan should be know
| to the court, Aud any such verdict woul(
} be set aside as soon as the facts should b,
known. 1t would be such fraudulen
conivance on the part Of the city with TIL
plaintiff would disgrace all connected
with it. And it would give the abuttinj
proprietors the right to set aside an,
such decision and remove any person VIII
should attempt to convert the ground t
private use. The proposition of the Unto
is disgraceful one 1t is proposition t
commit fraud upon adjoining owners
and it is proposition to cheat court int
giving a bought and paid-for decision,-
proposition to use court to defraud ad
joining proprietors. In no aspect is it a
honorable, open and above board act-no
, could it stand if consummated,
' 1t is, therefore, impracticable to CONVEX
the gound to any but public use. TIL
efforts of the Union against the people {
I the city may encourage further litigatio
and cause the people additional expense
: but they can never defeat the city nor COZ
: vert the ground to private USE
