When Mossop was an actor under
Sheridan, he had been told that the man.
ager had made some disparaging remarks
upon his dressing Richard IIT' in white
satin. Stalking up to his chief with the
pomposity of ruffled peacock, he ad-
dressed him thus: "Mr. Sheridan, | hear
you said | dressed Richard like cox
comb. This is An af-front. You wear a
sword; pull it out of the scab-bard. I'll
draw mine, and thrust it into your body,
sir" He was not quite such fire-eater,
however, as this speech would indicate, for
once, when he threatened to kill the fa-
NOUS mimic, Tate Wilkinson, if he should
dare to initiate him. Tate quietly ac-
cepted the challenge, which somewhat
cooled the wrath of this Boabdil. 'Sir," !"
ne said, "you dare not take me off; or if
you do, dare not take me off more than a
little. If you do more, sir, you shall
die" Mossop's fate was a most pltiahe
one. After Barry's failure, in 1857, he
became manager of both theaters. In
1870 a new playhouse was opened by one
Dawson, in Capel street, and two years
afterward Mossop Quilted Dublin ru-
ined man. He went back to London,
but too proud to solicit an engagement,
and reduced to the lowest depths of des-
titution, he shut himself up in the garret
he inhabited at Chelsea, and refusing to
accept any nourishment perished by
starvation.

British AppOrtiOnment.
[Alta California. |

A member of the British Cabinet made
public promise, recently, that at the
next session bill would be introduced
to reapportion the seats in Parliament.
The present distribution is grossly unfair.
1t was not made with strict ratio to the
number of inhabitants or voters. in the
first place, and in the meantime there has
been a great growth of some districts be-
side considerable extension of the suf-
frage. One half of the members of Par
Lament represent about fourth Of the
population.
The Britt h have not yet got down to
the system of a redistribution at regular
intervals, on the basis of the census, as
in the United States; but here the
changes in population are much greater,
and the need of re-apportionment at in
tervals Of ten years. far more urgent.
There are places with 100000 inhabitants
that have as much representation as
others with 100000. There is no fixed
rule in the British Constitution for rep
resentation; and whether re-appointment
will be based on population, or voters,
is mere matter of surmise.
If it were on voters, Ireland would
probably lose, for it has fewer votes in
proportion to population than either
England or Scotland. Under the present
system it has one Member of Parliament
for $4,000 Inhabitants, while Scotland
has one for $4,000, and England one for
$4,000. Tho inequality was much greater
when the apportionment was made, fol
then there were 10000 Irishmcn for each
Irish member, and about $4,000 English
men for each English member. Ireland
wants to be reconstructed as a separate
kingdom, with its own Parliament, Treas
ury and Army, and there seems to be nc
prospect of quiet until that demand is
granted, and there would probably bt
still less afterward.

Eloquent and Patriotic.
[Alta California. I

Nothing has occurred during many
years calculated to heal up the wounds of
the past, to restore fraternal feelings, to
reunite individuals as fellow-country-
men, and to break down the walls of par
tition between sections of our country,
walls which should never have been al
lowed to be, as the fraternal mingling to-
gether on Saturday night Of the repre-
sentatives of the North and South, the
Blue and tl1e Gray. And nothing of that
patriotic gathering has so struck us to
the heart as the eloquent and patriotic
speech of Captain Wright.
That speech and act rings the keynote
to reconciliation and good feeling. We
can ask no more from the men in gray
than continuance of the magnanimous
and patriotic spirit they have recently
displayed. We, as formerly supporters
of the blue, can surely do no less than
try to equal them in endeavors to restore
and preserve the National sentiment Of
brotherhood which existed before the
war.
"There are some," said Captain Wright
"who said that, for the Confederate sol
diers to attend this reception, would be
like attending their own funeral. Thi'
is no funeral, but resurrection. 1t is {
resurrection of that fraternal feeling be
tween us and ours which never shoule
have been allowed to die. Let us hop'
that in the future by our united effort
the peace of our country shrll never bt
disturbed y To my Comrades il
Blue give the right hand Of fellowship
forever and ever"
There sounds the signal Of peace anc
reunion. When Confederates oan thu
reach out their hands to their late antag
onists, what can It, and what should not
their fellow-countrymen in Blue say an'
do in the line of happy restoration o
good feeling and national fellowship
As Captain Wright says, let arbitration
and not cannon, hereafter settle our dis
agreements. If our fellow-countrymer
generally, whether of the Blue or tn
Gray, will but exhibit similar spiri
everywhere, we may consider the war o
ended. .-

An Authors Desk.
[Theophile Gautier.l


"While I was at Tarbes," said Gautier,
'G heard from my fellow-townsmen that
my school desk was religiously preserved
at the town school, and that it was the
admiration of tourists. Very much
fattered at finding that such honor was
paid to me in my lifetime, I resolved to
make acquaintance with the curious
desk which was attributed to me, and at
the same time with the school which
boasted Of having owned me as a
pupil. I, therefore, presented myself,
incognito, to the Principal, and
announcing myself as an enthu-
siastic admirer Of my own writings, |
begged him to take me to see the beloved
desk which had been the witness Of my
childish precocity. The Principal insisted
upon the honor Of being himself my
guide. The desk which he showed me,
and even allowed me to touch, WAS GER

sight Of it an irresistible emotion took
