ENGLAND IN 1882


1t is common place thing to say that a
hundred years is short period in the life
OF nation, yet few perhaps reflect how
short it really is. A man of 20 in this year
lSS2-and nowadays our English states
men are, SO to say, in their Items" at 80
have conversed as a youth of Is
with his Esther, who, If he had then at
tanned likewise three score and ten years,
could retain clear personal remembrance
OF the events of the American war of indie
pendence, and must have passed through
the era of the French Revolution in the
prime of manhood. Thus considerably
less than two ordinary lives carry us back
to date which, in certain respects, social
and economical, seems as remote as
ancient history. It needs an effort of the
imagination to recall what England was in
1852, Nevertheless, those who have
studied iie years Immediately preceding
the great war with France know we'll that
at that time the opinions of educated men
were to large extent in advance politi.
cally of what they are to-day. The writ.
ings of Thomas Paine, Priestly, Horns
locke, Thomas Spence, of Newcastle, The
speeches of the elder Pitt, Burke. Fox.
Sheridan and Col. Barre, to say nothing of
the crowd of pamphleteers~Sho in one Way
or another reflected the ideas OF Rousseau
and Voltaire and the general tone of the
working classes in their ordinary talk, all
Swallowed forth a political movement in
England not Very widely different in
its objects from that which wrought so
great change in France. A hundred
years ago the Duke of Richmond fathered
a bill in favor Of universal suffrage and an.
nual Parliaments, and man was tried for
high treason because he agitated for ma.
tional convention. 1t is certain that the
mass Of Euglshmen, so far as they could
give expression to their opinion, fully SYM
pathjzed with the early phases of the at.
tack upon the dRcien regime in France, and
would gladly have followed up the policy
so successfully begun in America and car.
ried on by the French in the direction Of a
complete acknowledgment of the people.
Yet here we are to-day without reforms
admitted to be necessary by Lord Chat
ham, and considered with a view to bring
ing them forward from Tory point of
view by his reactionary son.-[H. NJ.
Hyndman.

OKICINAI DEFE(IVE
TIE SISTERS

Annie and Rhods, sisters twain,
woke in the night to the sound Of raip,
The rush Of wind, the ramp and roar
vi great waves climbing rocky shore.
Annie rose up in her bed-gown white,
And looked out into the storm and night
Hush, and hearken p she cried in fear.
nearest thou nothing, sister dearF'
hear the sea, and the plash of rain
AND roar OF the northeast hurricane
" Get thee back to the bed so warm.
NO good comes of watching Storm
" What is it to thee, fain would know.
ihat waves are roaring and wild winds blow
No lover of thine's afoat to miss
Inc harbor lights on night like this"
But heard q voice cry out nv name
up from the sea on the wind it came
Twice and thrice have heard it cal,
ana the voice is the voice OF Estwick Hall r.
On the pillow the Sister tossed her head
= Hall Of the Heron is safe" she said.
In the tautest schooner that ever swan
He rides at anchor ia Anisquam
And, il in peril from swapping sea
Or lee-shore rocks, would he call on thee ~
But the girl heard only the wind and tide.
And wringing her small, white hands, she critd
=" oh sister Rhoda, there's something wrong:
hear it again, so loud and long.
90 Annie Annie hear it CALL
AND the voice is the voice OF Estwick Hall !"
Up sprang the elder, with eyes afiame,
Ihou hest He never would call thy name
II he did, would pray the wind and Sc.
10 Keep him for ever from thee and me %
Then out of the sea blew dreadful blast
Like the cry of dying man it passed
The Young girl hushed on her lips groan,
But through her tears a strange light shone-
TIE solemn joy OF her hearts release
10 own and cherish its love in peace.
" Dearest !" she whispered, under breath,
" Lie was lie, but true is DEATH
" The love 1 hid from myself away
Shall crown me now in the light of day.
Ny ears shall never to wooer list,
Never by lover my lips be kissed
Sacred to thee am henceforth,
Thou in heaven and on earth |"
She came and stood by her sisters bed:
Hall Of the Heron is dead % she said
" The wind and the waves their work have done
We shall see him no more beneath the suu
Little will reck that heart of thine,
1t loved him not with love like mine
l, for his sake, were he but here,
Could hem and 'broider thy bridal gear
Though hands should tremble and eyes be wet
And stitch for stitch in my heart be set.
But now my soul with his soul wed
Thine the living, and mine the dead p

BALLOONS IN WAR.-The Nature re.
minds its readers that the British were
not the first to bring balloons with them to
Egypt for the purposes Of war. They
were certainly taken out by the French
army in 1894. Bonaparte was unable to
use them, however, as the apparatus for
the preparation of the hy drogen gas was
destroyed when Nelson annihiIated the
French feet at Aboukir. These balloons
were very small, having a capacity of
only $40 cubic metres. They were mad g
of silk, and were inflated with hydrogen
made by causing steam to act on iron
filings.

the square their rendezvous would flock
thither. "The Mockipg Bird" and

RICHMOND IN WAR TIMES.

Every Tuesday night, during the winter
we had meeting of what we called "The
Starvation Club" our refreshments con-
sisting of cold water but as we had ex.
cet'ent music, high spirits and youthful
buoysncy, we enjoyed these meetings
greatly and danced away merrily with the
young officers. 1 remember one of these
who had won golden spur, of which he
was so proud that he wore it to meeting
of our club, spreading havoc among the
young girls, whose trains he ruthlessly
tore. At other entertainments we had
handsome and abundant suppsrs, even dur.
ing the utmost stringeEcy of the blockade,
for the Richmond people could still com.
mand fowls, game, and old Virginia ham,
though imported wines and Java and Mocha
coffee were scarcely more than traditions
OF the PAST. Our costumes, especially dur
ing the last and most brilliant social season
of the war, the winter of 1864 5 up to
February, were far from complete, but
as nearly all of us (women at least) were
in the same predicament we were seldom
mede to feel badly by seeing our neighbors
dressed better than ourselves, test as fatal
to female friendship as the one Cowper
