Who Got Thackeray's Money |?


heard the other day bit of gossip
about Thackeray which has never, 80
far as know, been in print. Thack-
cray, not long before his death, told
an intimate literary friend that he had
almost made up the portion for his
two daughters which he wanted for
them-flO,O 900 apiece-and that If
he should die the renting of the house
they lived in. which he said he owned,
would bring them a considerable in
come. Yet when he died-he was
found dead in his bed, you remember
there was no trace Of money anywhere
to be found, and somebody else was
found to own the house. The mystery
Is, did Thackeray have the money in
the hands of some one he trusted, but
who saw the opportunity to keep it.,
there being no written evidence Of its
existence? There was a little account,
too, Of the manner in which Chapman
&'Hall, his publishers, behaved. which
makes one glad that Napoleon once
shot bookseller Miss Thackeray
wished to sell her half of the copy
right Of her fathers works-Chapman
X Hall held the Other-and they offer
ed her only $500. Smith Il Miller
came to the rescue. lent her 81, 900
to buy Chapman Il Halls half, and
then paid her IL, 900 f"r the whole.

The Harper Bros. have issued" Md
summer Nights Dream" edited by w. J.
Role, illustrated. 1t is evident that the
editor Of this favorite play. has high APP
probation of Shakspeare's wonderful genius;
but it is not so certain that he always puts
the correct Interpretation upon the great
poets idea. Indeed, it may he doubted il
any annotatiOn of Shakespeare enhances in
any degree the interest OF a work which APP
leals alike Ia the admiration OF the uncul-
tnred and the learned, by that universal
sovereignty of genius which holds dominion
over the intellect of mankind. Neverthe-
less, Mr.. Role has given us a very elegant
and highly ornate view of Shakespeare from
a purely scholarly standpoint. 1t was not
necessary, however, for him to disabuse our
superstitious reverence for the fairies, and
tell us that the bewitching Titania and the
grOtesque Oberon were creatures Of the i'm
aginatiou. There were even a great many
and credit in Bottom, and who were ready
10 swear that he had living descendants at
this very day who had inherited the head
given him by the prankish Oberon. Indeed
the little Fairy King is not the only person
who ever succeeded in putting a head ON
his rival.
Messrs. Osgood 4 Co., have issued VOL
ume entitled "Cnderhrush," by James T..
Field, consisting OF fugitive miscellany and
essays upon various subjects. The pieces
are thrown together in reckless confusion,
and the reader is As apt to stumble out Of
romance into dissertation on history, or an
essay on abstruse science or anything else
There is really nothing very attractive about
the work, and yet it will serve admirably to
ill up vacant hour for the aesthetic reader
"Cndine." sort Of fairy tale by Lamotte
Fouque, published by Osgood, is a quaint
Interpretation of an old German legend. and
is graphic and beautiful description of
some of the most gorgeous scenery on that
classic stream. The Imagination ia mingled
with the real in just sufficient proportion to
enhance the interest of the reader, and to
hold captive ones love for the marvellous.
