Machiavelli.

Westminster Review.
Psychological dissection gives one little
real conception ofcharacter. So it comes
about that many of our best DISORDERS of
character have told us more of the impress
sions that men they wish us to understand
have made upon Others than of the actual
qualities or sentiments of which they
were supposed to be possessed, and from
these reflected lights of emotion we gather
more knowledge and attain better in
sight into the disposition of the man than
we could arrive at by any analysis of his
mental faculties, or any enumeration of
his deeds. We know more of a man after
we have heard him abused or praised by
one who lis familiar with him than we
should if We had his whole chronological
development quantatively described. The
genuine sympathy that Thackeray has
with some men let us know more of their
characters than we could obtain from
hours of reading about their badness or
goodness. There is not much of this in
direct light or contemporary criticism to
be thrown upon Machiavelli. We know
what he looked like. He was small and
slender His eyes were always on the
alert in his small head. His hair was
dark, his lips thin and compressed, his
nose aquiline. A dapper man, with a
keen mind. That is our impression of
him. He does not seem to have many
friends. He was not the kind of man to
make friendships, and from mere ac-
quaintances we learn nothing.

Spontaneous Ignition.

If we add to any dry matter, as lay,
litter, etc, sufficient water To just MOST
ten the mass, and place it under presure,
heat is evolved more or less intense &C
cording to the circumstances connected
Herewith Thus the gardener produces
heat by means of litter manure, TO keep
plants growing, in connection with cut
side covering, during our coolest winters.
Thus hay in barns often gets quite hot,
and if access by the oxygen of the air be
had it would at length break out into
flame Stacks are much more likely To
ignite on account of contact with air tlgan
when hay is in a barn. For this, as enc
reason, hay may, in fact, be saved III u
more moist state IN a barn than in stack.
In England spontaneous combustion of
stacks and ricks is not extremely unusu-
al On the contrary, such combustion is
almost unknown in this country, and Ter
the simple reason that the climate here is
altogetheT favorable to the curing of hay
Since hav is more apt to ignite from being
put into the stack moist than from leak
age of rain into the stack after 1t IS built.
In respect to spontaneous ignition, the
Boston Journal Of Chemistry says:
"Combustion is an oxidiZing process,
and when the carbon and hydrogen "t
the hay are in condition To attract oxygen
rapidly, the temperature may reach the
point where flames must spring up, ana
then the work of destruction goes on rap
idly. 1t is precisely tic same process
which occurs in strong horse manure, and
which results in sire fanging, SO called.
1t is not possible, however, for the heat
to become intense enough to produce -
milton in the manure heap Whilst the
danger of spontaneous combustion Of hay
is not great, still it is possible, and hence
care should be observed in curing and
storing it."

Shakspeare's Early Married Life

The Fathaways had lived in Shottery
for forty years prior to Shakspeare's mar
riage. The poet, then wholly undistin-
guished, had Just turned eighteen, while
his bride was nearly twenty-six, and it
is often said now that she did very wrong
TO we'd this boy-lover. They were married
in November, 1882, and their first child,
Susanna, came the following May. Anne
Hathaway must have been very fascinat-
ing woman, or Shakespeare would not
have so loved her; and she must have
loved HIM dearly--as what woman, in
deed, could help it!-or she would not
thus have yielded to lis passion. There
is direct testimony to- the beauty of his
person; and in the light afforded by his
writings it requires no extraordinary
penetration to conjecture that his brilliant
mind sparkling hunor, tender fancy, and
impetuous spirit must have made him in
his youth the very paragon of enchanters
1t is not known where they lived during
the first year after their marriage. Per
haps in this cottage at Shottery. Perhaps
with Hamnet and Judith Sadler, foI
whom their twins, born in 1885, were
named Hamnet and Judith. Her fathers
house assuredly would have been chosen
for Anne's refuge, when presently, in 1886
Shakespeare was obliged to leave his wife
and children, and go away to London to
seek his fortune. He did not buy New
Place till 1897, but it is known that in
the mean time he came to his native coun
try once every year. 1t was i'll Stratford
that his son Hamnet died, in 1896. Anne
and her children probably had never left
the town. They show her bedstead and
other bits of her furniture, together Will
certain homespun sheets of everlasting
linen, that are kept as heirlooms to this
day, in the garnet Of the Shottery cottage
Here is the room that must often have
welcomed the poet when he came home
from work in the great city. 1t is a very
homely and humble place, but the sight
Of it makes the heart thrill with strange
and incommunicable awe. You can moi
wish to speak when you are standing
there You are scarcely conscious of the
low rustling of the leaves outside, the far
off sleepy murmuring of the brook, OF
the faint fragrance Of woodbine and
maiden's blush that is waited in at the
open easement, and that swathes in ma
lures incense a memory sweeter than it
self
