You emery young limb!

The Doctor is still able to handle his
rifle, but of course with little of his earlier
skill Boone, according to Byron, lived
hunting up to ninety but he lived in a
region of game. Here is man who hunted
with Boone, campcd with him, and slept
with him, heard, as he has told me, the
wolves and the owls howl and hunt about
their camp fires, and seen the eyes of the
panthers in the darkness, and listened for
the stealthy tread of the savage, still alive
and active, and draws bead with rifle at
the age Of ninety-eight.
1t may interest temperance people to
know that the nonogenarian habitually car.
ries a bottle of whisky in his side coat
pocket containing portion of quinine, and
Of this he takes "dram" whenever he
feels fatigued. He thinks it u sure precau-
ton against fever and ague. He frequently
walks twenty miles without firing, and
his appetite is as good as when he lived on
unsalted venison and bear meat fresh killed
in the kentucky forests.

THE GEyERAL LIST
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1881-04-05

The publication OF Mr.. Caryle's R'minls-
cences" has rot addedto the popularity Of the
writer of them. In the published notices OF these
two extraordinary volumes you find almost always
BONE more or less yelled depreciation OF tie bitter
ness which runs through them In private this
feeling is expressed much more openly. Among
Carlyles warmest admirers the feeling amounts 20
disrnay. Those who knew him personally knew
that he was IN the habit Of saying hard things
about people he did not like. But they as well as
Others are aston,shcd at the frequency OF the dc-
nunciation which is 20 be found in tlis book. SO
many Persons are harshly judged aud ridiculcd and
sneercd az the contempt is iadscuininatc and
unmeasured that the general feeling abom their
author is modified To n Insr9ed degree; though but
temporarily, one may hope. Mr.. FrOude in his
character as editor does not escape criticism.
q How can Mr. Froude have allowed all this TO get
into print 7" is question you hear at every turn.
How can he have printed all Carlyle's reiterated
profuseness OF loving spostrcphes 60 his wife on the
opc hand, and on the other, all these expressions
of fierce scora toward SO many estimable and al
nirabie people; people. moreover. who were Car
lyls's triendsf Perhaps the answer may I've that
Mr. Froude from his daily and most intimate iu-
tercourse with Carlyle during 80 many yesIs, had
grown too we'll accustomed 20 his splenetic out
bursts, and forgot that they would be strange TO
Others. Whatever the explanation may lie. there
h the fact and very unpleasant fact it Is. and
very painful Carlylev friends aud to the friends
Of whose whom he has attacked.
Mr. Yates's Cuckoo has been Matched, md proves
very remarkable bird indeed: diugy of plnniage
and hoarse IN note. Mr. Yates Is Journalist of OK
perience. but one wonders whence he drew the idea
OF h,s new paper. II is a suartc Of sixteen pages.
printed loosely on poor paper, with cheap and
mysterious weodcut filling half the frst page. and
the paper occupied wholly with displayed adver-
tisements and disjointed paragraphs Probably no

how tircsome thing paragraph Is when Il 10
