The poet Longfellow is ~ years OF
age. His natal anniversary occurred
Feb. 81, and his friends called ON him
at his pleasant Cambridge house and
paid their compliments. One pretty
feature of the occasion was IL tribute
from the children of Cambridge in the
shape of a chair made from the wood
of the old horse chestnut under whose
shade the Village smithy'' formerly
stood. The inscriptions comprised this
stanza of the poem, The Village
Blacksmith:
And children, coming home & on schol
Look In at the open door.
And catch the burning sparks that fy
LIN chair from n thiashing door.
Around the seat, In raised letters, are
the lines beginning:
And children coming home from school
Look In ut the open door.
The fact that the wood Of the tree cele-
brated by the poet has been religiously
preserved by the authorities Of the city
Of Cambridge, is n pleasant illustration
of the venelation with which every
thing connected with Longfellow is
there regarded.

The cattle trade continues to DO the
subject Of earnest consideration by the
treasury officials in Washington. This
government has been notified by the
Danish minister, that no cattle from

for this is assigned. A letter has also
