The Young Lady Who Didn't Like John
Gilpin.

From Mr.. James ravn'- "Sham Admiration in Iuera-
tuIe,' IN the Nineieenth centuTv.l
"Until CaldecOtt's charming illus.ra-
tions of it made me laugh so much, !"
said young lady to me the other dav,
81 confess though l know it's very
stupid of me-l never saw much fun in
John tiilpin." She evidently expected
a reprOof, and when whispered in her
ear, Nor l." her lovely features as
sunled look of positive enfranchise-
ment. "But am l right" she inquired.
"iou are certainly right, my dear young
lady," said "not to pretend admiration
where you don't feel it; as to liking
John Gilpin, that is a matter of taste.
1t has, of course, simplicity to recon-
mend it; but in my own case, though
I'm fond of fun, it has never evoked a
smile. 1t has always seemed to me like
one of Mr.. Joe Miller's stories put into
tedious verse;" l really almost thought
(and hOped) that that young lady would
have kissed me. Papa always says it
is free country" she exclaimed, "but
| never felt il tn be the case before this
moment" For years this beautiful
and accomplished creature had locked
this awful secret in her innocent breast
that she didn't see much fun in John
Gilpin. "YOu have gwen me courage"
she said, "tO confess something else.
MIR. CaldecOtt has Just been illustrating
in the same charming manner Gold
smiths Elegy on Mad Dogs, and-Tm
very sGrry--but ! never laughed at that
before, either. | have pretended TO
laugh, you know" she added. hastily
and apo 'Ogetically, hundreds of times
81 don't doubt it," I replied; 'this is
not such free country as your father
supposes." But am I ght?" 81 say
nothing about right" answered. eek
cept that everybody has right to his
own opinion. For my part, however, l
think the Mad Dog better than John
Gilpin only because it is shorter"
Whether 1 was wrong or right in the
matter is of no consequence. even to my
self; the affection and gratitude of that
y uDg creature would more than repay
me for much greater mistake, if mis-
take it is. She protests that | have
emancipated her from slavery. She has
since talked to me about all sorts of au-
thors, from Sir Philip Sidney to Wash
ingtjn Irving. in way that would make
some peoples blood run cold; but it
has no such effect upon me-guite the
reverse. OF Irving she naively remarks
that his strokes of humOr seem to her
to owe much of their success to the
rarity of their occurrence; the flashes
OF fun are spread over pages Of dullness,
which enhancs them, just as a dark
night is prOpitious to fireworks, or the
of the House of Commons,
or a court of law, to a joke. She is often
in error, no doubt, but how bright and
wholesome such talk il, as compared
with the platitudes and common places
which one hears on all sides in connec-
tion with literature!

Coughs l(uSe.

Most lecturers who hare been intro
duced to their audiences have suffered
from the high eulOgiums passed upon
them beforehand by their misjudging
introducers. The natural effect is to
arouse expectation that cannot be met,
and to produce marked disappointment.
John 3. Cough relates how he once
managed, before London assembly, to
avoid such a result. His introducer had
pronounced him the greatest orator who
had ever lived, and ended a long and
eulsome eulogy by telling the people to
prepare themselves to listen to such a
burst of elOqence as they had never be
before listened t.. Cough, knowing
that the best effort he had ever made
would, under such circumstances, fall
far shsrt of anticipation, determined to
practice ruse, and the ruse was to
affect stupidity. He opened BY stam-
mering and hesitating, beginning his
sentences and leaving them unfinished,
until, as he said, the worst speaker in
England could not have done worse.
He soon overheard those on the platform
whispering their disapprobaticn and
censure, one man saying: go, this will
do very we'll lin IN X%er,esap,o esapoyo You It nay
but in England, you know, it is quite a
different thing" He still continued in
his dull, disconnected way until he had
seen that he had background for his
verbal picture. Then he gradually
adopted his natural manner, and as sen-
tence after sentence rolled out vivid aud
resonant from his lips, his audience grew
enthusiastic, and fairly roared their ap-
plause. He had never been more rap
turousIy greeted than he was then and
there. Those who heard him declared
that they had never known a man to
change so after he had once warmed up.

A remarkable episode in the arrival
Of the amnestied Communists brought
home by the Loire recently deserves no.
tice. writes a Paris correspondent.
Among them was "a man named Gilbert,
who, ten years ago, in the spring of
1870, loved and was beloved by charm
ing girl, whose father held a post under
the Empire. The young couple agreed
to be married, but the old Imperialist,
aware of the Republican tendencies of
his daughters suitOr, gave an absO-
lutte refusal to Gilberts demand for
her hand, ard there was no hope that he
could ever be brought to change his res
Olution. AT this point the story turns
into romance, and its later incidents
might form the subject of a novel. The
lover5 resolved to prove the depths of
their attachments by dying together, and
accordingly proceeded t. "A little inn at
a village on the bank of the Marne, and
there, having decked themselves with
flowers and exchanged last kiss, Gill
