Antiquity of Nursery Rhymes.

Many of these productions have very
curious history, if it could only be traced
Some of them probably owe their origin to
names distinguished in our literature; as
Oliver Goldsmith, for instance, is believed in
his earlier days to have written such compo-
sitions. DIR. f. +. Rimbault gives us the iol.
lowing particulars as to some well known
favori,es; "Sing Song OF Sixpence" is as old
as the sixteenth centery. 'Three Blind
Mice" is found in music-book dated 1907
"rhe Frog and the Mouse" was licensed in
1880 "rhrec Children Sliding on the lee
dates from 1888 London Bridge is Broken
Down" is ofunialhomed antiquity. "Grls and
Boys Come Out TO play" is certainly as old
as the reign of Charles H.. as is also "Lucy
Locket Lost her Pocket" to the tune of which
the American song of yankee Doodle" was
written. PUSSY Cat, Pussy Cat, Where
Have You Been2' is of the age OF Queen
Bess Little Jack Horner" is older than the
seventeenth century. The Old Woman
Tossed in Blanket" is of the reign of James
H., to which monarch, it is supposed to
allude.

Who does not like to hear really good
talker, whether in the public room or the
private circle? Men may glibly quote the
adage, Speech is silvern but silence is gol,
den, yet it must be acknowledged that the
silent man is, as rule, at great disadvan-
tage compared with his neighbor who can use
MS tongue well, and is, as the phrase goes,
good company"
But how comparatively few are the takers
with whom we can find no fault! Some are
too egotistcal, others too censorious. One
man annoys us by being too argumentative
another by asserting too readily to all that
we say, and thus, anomalous as it may seem,
blocking the road to conversation by sheer
want OF obstruction. Then there are the
double-tongued takers, the inquisitive and
the grandiloquent-all of whom are obiec.
