The Home of Mark Twain.

In letter from Hartford, Ct, to the
Burlington Qowa) Hawkeye, Mr.. r. j.
Burdette writes:
/ think 1 have never been in home
more beautifully homelike than this pal
ace of the king Of humorists. The sur
roundings of the house are beautiful,
and its quaint architecture, broad East
Indian porticos, the Greek patterns In
mosaic in the dark red brick walls attract
and charm the attention and good taste
OF the passer-by, for the home, inside
and out, is the perfection of exquisite
taste and harmony. But with all its
architectural beauty and originality, the
elegance of its interior finish and decora-
tons, the greatest charm about the house
is the atmosphere of 'homelikeness' that
pervades it. CharmiDgly as he can en-
terrain thousands of people at time
from the platform, Mr. Clemens is even
The brightness and best sides of his ma
NOR and drollery that sparkle in his
conversation is as utterly unaffected and
natural Us sunlight Indeed, don't be-
lieve he knows or thinks that most of
his talk before the sparkling fire, up in
the pleasant retirement of his billiard
room study, is marketable merchandise
worth so much page to the publishers,
but it is. And it is not all drollery and
humor. He is 80 earnest that his
earnestness charms you fully as much as
his brighter flashes, and once in while
there is in his voice an infection of won
derful pathos, SO touched with melan-
choly that you look into the kind, earnest
eyes to see what thought has touched
his voice. And he has n heart as big as
his body; believe there does not live a
man more thoroughly unselfish and self
forgetful. Two little girls and boy
baby, bright eyed, good tempered, and
with a full head of hair as brown as his
fathers, assist Mrs. Clemens to fill the
heart of the reigning humorist, and they
do it most completely. Personally, Mr..
Clemens is, perhaps, q little above the
medium height, of good symmetrical
physique, brown hair, scarcely touched
with gray, that curls over high, white
forehead; friendship in his eyes, hearty
cordially in the grasp of well shaped
white hand, strong enough and heavy
enough to be manly hand; his age is
forty something. and he looks thirty-five;
in the evening after the lamps are lighted,
his face has boyish look, and he loves a
good cigar even better than Grant
does"

Yes, know there are stains on my carpet,
The traces OF small muddy boots;
And | sea your tair tapestry glowing,
All spotless with blossoms and fruits
And know that my walls are dishgured
With pints Of siI all fingers and hands;
And that your own household most truly
All fresh la its purity stands.
And I know that my parlor IL Uttered
" ith many old treasures aud toys;
While your own Is IA dainiicst order.
Unframed 10y the presence OF boys
And I know that my room Is invaded
Quite boldly all hours III the dayi
While you st Ia your own uuui jlested
And Cream the soft quiet away
Ycs, know there are four little bedsides
Where | must stand waIcnful each night;
While YOU go oirt in your rrlage,
And flash In your dresses SO bright
Now, think I'm neat little woman;
like my house orderly, tho;
And I'm fond of all dainty belongings;
Yet would not change places with you'll
Mol keep your fair nome with its order,
It, freedom from bother and noise
And keep your own fancful leisure;
But give me my four Splendid boys

The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1881-12-20

Editors of the Dispatch: The office OF
Superintendent OF Public instruction Is
one which by common consent requires
more varied and special fitness than any
other which the present Legislature has to
Gil. II seems conceded that Delegate X. X.
Farr, OF Fairfax, is to be appointed. May
I ask-solely for information, and not be-
cause Il really has anything TO do with the
action Of the electing power as at present
nstitutcd-whcther 1t Is claimed that Mt:
Farr has anu qualification for the post ?
I have long resided in the county, and am
intimately identified with educational work,
and never heard 1t limited that he had.
No intelligent countyman Of Mr.. Farr, who
knows whereof he afiirms, supposes for a
moment that he has, and the use OF his
name in this connection is as much sur
prise to every one where he Is best known
a. Il is TO the State at large. FAIRFAX.
