About AUTHoEs.-Two weeks ago. We pub
lished poem entitled, when the Cows Come
Home" which we trust every reader read and
admired, for it is one of the prcttiest and finest
poems ever published. A lady writes Gs all the
way from New York, to ask if We know the
name Of the author She says she heard Mrs
Siddons recite if, some years ago. and thought
IL was the finest thing she ever heard. She had
ever since been wanting to get a copy, but could
never succeed until she saw it in the Chief; and
now she is anxious TO know who was the author
of it, We are sorry we cannot inform her, for
We, too would like to know. II is one of those
fugitive pieces which picked up floating
through the newspapers, without the authors
name attached. We think it is English.
The same lady asks us whether the Will. Carle-
ton who is now writing for HdrpT's and other
Eastern papers, is the VIII. NJ. Carleton who
wrote farm ballads, a few years ago. lie is the
same. But since he became famous, he has un-
dertaken to revise and improve his name from
that by which his friends knew him in his humb-
Ter days. This is disease that is very apt to
attack authors who burst into sudden notoriety.
We call to mind poet who came into notOriety
some thirty years ago, and wrote some very fine
pieces, but who seems to have now deserted the
muse, and taken to local politics. He was of
modest Quaker origin, and to his first writings
signed his full name, Samuel Coates Kinney.
Becoming clated with success, his name was
amended To 5. Coates Kinney. Soon the big
head seized him, and his name was remodellcd
and compounded into Coates Kinney.

too great to partake in the festivities
of the occasion, concluded to enjoy
the day here, and SO, with few
friends, to the number of fifty, they
proceeded up the river to one of the
many groves and spent the afternoon
in a most enjoyable manner, the
younger portion swinging, boat riding
etc., while the older ones spent the
time in visiting. All deciding that if
the friends at Olcott Con lake On

they must have the most enjoyable
occasion for years.
