CHARLES Dickens manuscripts.

Charles Dickens Manuscripts.
Chambers JOurnaLl
A glimpse of the manuscripts of
the late Charles Dickens, which
now form part of the "Forster Col
lection f" in the South Kensington
Museum, conjured up a vision of
numerous characters in his popular
novels. On looking attentively at
the manuscripts, we are at once
struck by the number of alterations
and interlineations with which the
pages abound f; and our first senti-
ment is one of surprise that the
books which appear SO wonderfully
natural and fluent when we read
them should evidently have been
the result of much anxious thought,
care and elaboration. The collec-
ton comprises the original manu-
scripts of the, following works:
Oliver Twist, published in
lSSS-39; Master Humphreys
Clock, comprising the Old Curl
osity Shop and Barnaby Rudge,
published in 1S40-41; Barnaby
Rudge, a separate volume, 1901;
American Notes, 1S42; Martin
Chuzzlewit, 1884; The Chimes,
Christmas, 1874; Dombey and Son,
1868; David Copperfeld, 1S49-
90; Bleak House, which has in the
original manuscript a secondary
title, The East Wind, 1923; Hard
Times, 1854; Little Dorrit, 1856
81; A Tale of Two Cities, 1859; and
The Mystery Of Edwin brood (hiS
last but unfinished work., 1870.
There are also proof volumes from
the printers; consisting of Dombey
and Son, David Copperfeld, Bleak
House and Little Dorrit, the pages
of which bear marginal and other
corrections and alterations in ink by
the author.

posterior Uranium. The right arm
is bent, the hand lying on the
breast. The bones between the
wrist and fingers and the finger
bones, with their processes, are said
to be true to nature. The left arm
rests on the left leg, which is drawn
up, and the flexOr muscle bears a
scar. The great toes on the feet
have the appearance Of thumbs, and
are not unlike the toes Of a gorilla.
But that which excites the greatest
curiosity among scientific men is
the yertebra, which is extended
about two inches and a half, dis
playinga well-defned tail. This tail
is not believed to be the os coccyx
projected by the shrinkage of the
muscles, for in that case it would
have a fat, arrow-shaped form. 1t
is about five inches long, round,
about one inch in diameter and
with a connical termination. On
Friday evening a large gathering of
scientific men, among whom were
Professors Ogden and Charles A.
Doremus, Hamilton, Clymer, Bum
stead, Post, Mott and Smith and
scores of Others eminent in science
and medicine, among whom may
be named Drs, S. L. Moses, For
dyce Barker, Ramsey, Mason,
Owen, Henry, Dexter, Foster,
Quackenboss, Judson, Campbell,
Bull and Munde, visited the aqua
rum and made a close and careful
examination: of the petrifaction.
The stone man should be brought
to this city and submitted to the
scrutiny Of our medical experts,
than whom no better are to be
found in this country.

slight operation he performed,
there were great rejoicings. A
dinner was hastily prepared, and
one Of the guests turned out to be
a sort Of troubadour wandering
from village to village and. impro-
yising his songs. After dinner the
son Of the Hodscha showed us the
house and its treasures, consisting
chiefly Of costly carpets aud orna-
ments Of Caucasian filigree work,
searly to be excelled by the Gen
oese. The art of the once so IA
nous Circassian gold ssand silver
smiths has not yet quite perished
during the wars. In one room the
young man opened a doulab, one of
those large closets, such as are to
be found in almost all Oriental
houses. What a sight presented
itself! A pale girl, with red eyes
and light hair, dressed iu European
fashion, was crouched in il. At
first sight she took no notice Of our
presence, but suddenly some thought
may have passed through her brain
that we were Europeans. In husky
voice she said a few unintelligi-
BILE words, perhaps Russian-and
then called out in French, "Sauvez
Inoil' Immediately the young man
drew his hand jar; she was silent,
and the doulab was closed. The
Hodscha's son told us that fort
night before troop of Lazes had
attacked a Russian village, muir
dered the old men, women and
children and carried off the young
girls and boys into slavery. The
young Lazian had received the Rus
sian maiden as his share of the
booty. During the first three days
of her Imprisonment she had done
nothing but weep, then knife was
held to her throat and she was
threatened with death if she made
81 sound. Since then she had been
quiet till our arrival. She had been
sold the day before for G200-an
enormous sum now-to GO to Diar-
bekir. On the journey they are
| dressed as Turkish women and put
on board the boat at Batoum. 1t
would be Unjust to make the Turk
| ish government answerable for the
continuance OF the robbery of hui
man beings. The real guilt lies
with the st. Petersburg cabinet,
which pursues the same perfdious
policy towards the Lazes as towards
the KurdS. After the picture l had
seen in the doulab my one wish was
to return to Batoum. Isnail Bey
had offered me a horse for the jour
ney, aud after he had tried in vain
to induce me to stay the night the
horse was brought out. We took a
short farewell, and, refusing the
escort Of any servants, we rode out
in the dusk of the evening. The
rain abated, and sometimes the
moon threw her pale light on the
ravine at our feet. At the large
Turkish village of Madjal, near the
Techorouk-Su, we made a halt.
The road is narrow, though in good
condition, and leads, differently
from what is marked on our maps,
along the right side of the Adshara
valley to the Tschorouk, and then
down the right bank of the river.
After a rest Of three hours we con-
tinued or ride, and reached Ba-
toum at noon to take the boat at
once for Trebizond.

"Peucestas," said Leonatus, one
day, when the all-conquering army
of Alexander was on Its march to
Mali, "PeuceStas, why is the crap

Peucestas was buried in deep
thought Tor a moment; "because 1t

tured timidly.
"Naw!" roared the son of Pella.
"Man behind the counterp pur-

"No."
"To cover his head?'
"Shades of my fathers, mol"
Because it's infrm?"
Leonatus only made u despairing
gesture"
Because it's a slope up?"
Leonatus made a motion to strike
him, and Peucestas said he wouldn't
guess any more, and he couldn't
see why a horses crupper was like
ships anchor.
"Well, 1t is" replied Leonatus,
"because it's at the end of the haw-
SER"
(Which end?9 presently Peuces-
tas inquired, with show of in.

And then Leonatus looked along
way off and said that the peculiar
appearance of the clouds, and the
humidity of the atmosphere indi-
Gated considerable areas of disturb

Dear people all.
You've heard the call,

Whore brokers great.
Do operate
Upon the credit of tho State.
While plotting brood.
Have ample rosd
OF latitude and longitude,
Right rigid rule.
Our leaders fool
Like little boys Just sent to school.
Though storm and rain.

We're forced to meet

So anxious are
About our benor that their bar.
Was taxed to ind.
Some mighty mind. %
To learn US how the words defined.
What robbed estate
Hath made him great,
They fail to show and fail 10 stated
His subtle speech,
Can honor teach;
Who ever practice what they preach?
Our soldier dead,
Quite useless bled,
And honor from their graves has fed,
McKinnon holds
The flag whose folds,
Leads on to honor-bless our souls.
In parlors lne.
Mil warmth and wine,
He'll traffic for this land of thine,
While want and care.
And meanest fare,
To mortgaged homes bring dark despair.
Our ruling Moses
Has counted noses,
And has fixed all right as he suppo,es;
How thankful we
Should ever be.
For such a governor as he.
In ranks of war
Our governor.
Once fought the fOeman from afar.
But now the pack
Upon our track.
Has made Of him their Timber Jack.
They pull the strings,
lie dances-sings
Fond p@ans to the money kings,
And hastos to spoil
Our land of toll,
And fasten bondage on our soil.
Each silent hour
Is garnering power;
Heed well before the heavens lower.
To those who feel
Sore hearts appeal,
The commonwealth means common veal. 4.

A vain pretence,
That we should tax for decades hence?

Now claim the power
In this fell hour
To vote away their countrys dowery
Who daros suppose
That when we chose
Cur p,ssent leaders o'er their foes,
We then knew augbt
of what was iraught,
