A STORY OF HUGO.

During the days of Victor Hugo's
exile IN Guernsey, an English lady.
who had for some time been living with
her family at st. Saviour, near the
centre of the island, missed her vouno-
est son, an intelligent child of about
hve years old. The boy, it afterward
appeared, had strayed from his nurse
ahd' wandering aimlessly about, had
grown weary, and had quite contentedlv
gone to sleep in the open air. HUGO
on one OF his solitary rambles, found the
child Just awakening, and recognized
hlm as the son of lady whom he knew
by sight, he hoisted him on to his back
and' greatly delighted, cantered with
hlm across country to his own home
A storm came on, and it was decided
that the youngster could not be sent
back that night. A message, however
allayed the mothers anxieties and newt
morning the boy was returned, together
with profuse apologies, many thanks and
ahuge basket of flowers and fruit Upon
being asked how he enjoyed his unpre.
meditated visit, the child said. "verv
much indeed M. Hugo PLAYED az
hons with me all the evening. He WINS
tne hon--under the table. And, do Won
Know once when he came out of his
aen and growled, he pulled or the

STRANGE SCENES ON A moUNrAIN.

clear as crystal, others white with sul.

springs the contents of which are n

conslstencies, from huge cauldrons.

intervals of several seconds about one
teaspoonful with great force to a distance
of several feet.

on the surface, floats to the margin. and

hitting crust anywhere, the surface be-
meath, as well as the aperture, was found
to be crystalized with sulphur. Forma-
tlons of crystals of the different minerals
are found prOmiscuously. Above one Of

rocks which are completely encrusted
with sulphur crystals As if to lIeiphteD

IN DAYS OF OLD.

Breakfast and luncheon were very
slight meals with the Greeks and
Romans The cena, or dinner-supper
OF classical times, consisting of three
courses, piquant dishes, then fish and
meat in several removes, was held in far
too high esteem by epicurean appetites
to allow of its being injured by any
previous repast Not till the supper or
dinner, call it what we will, was served
did the noble Roman take his daily food
with luxurious elegance and ease. The
evening meal was for the few, not for
the many. 1t was the meal sacred to
hospitality and pleasure. Those who
partook of it reclined at length ON
couches, in the spirit of festal enjoyment
and pleasure, donned like a marriage
robe. Dinner or supper, this was the
meal OF the day. Business was left be-
hind, care and toll were forgotten. the
days work was done.

The records of Libby Prison are

The records of Libby Prison are now
preserved i'll the Government archives
at Washington. They are in big flat
book two inches thick, about three feet
long, and two feet wide. It's paper is
now yellow with age, but the ink is as
black as when it first flowed from the
pen. In the book more than 1900
patients are entered, and the record
shows that about Is, 900 of them left
the hospital for the grave. Whole pages
show that the prisoners died on the
same day of their entry to the hospital,
and the diseases which are recorded
opposite their names are those of
dysentery, etc. diseases which arose
beyond doubt, from the poor condition
in which they were kept.

ABOUT HUMAN NIGHFINGALEs.

In chatting with Nine. Marchesi. the
famous singing professor, about her
sun more famous pupil, Gabrielle
Arauss, we digressed into a talk about
the vocal gifts of the different civilized
nations OF the world. In her classes at
Vienna Nine. Marchesi had vouno
songsresses of almost every nation.
She placed the Italians and Germans ot
the head of the best endowed. both as
regards voices and musical sensibilities.
Bone Hungarians should also be hiohlv
estimated, and many Swedes that passed
through her hands had superior gifts
When q Frenchwoman had musical
gifts she made the most of them.
Americans and Irish Nine. Marcbesi
had often found very highly gifted.
But there was no larynx more difficult
to drill than the English. 1 asked her
whether this was owing to want of ear.
1t could not be due to the effect of the
English language on the throat and
mouth, since it was spoken both in
America and Ireland No" she said.
there is a vast deal of music in good
English poetry. The defective larynx.
IN my opinion, comes from the wav
English is spoken in genteel and aristo-
cratic society. Broad, open sounds are
never heard. There are consonants that
are slurred or clipped; and conversation
is carried on everywhere i'll undertones
that is, by ladies' young girls, govern
esses and nursery-maids The current
pronunciation and enunciation in the
long run incapacitate the throat for fine
vocalization. The Irish speech is much
less restrained, so far as the pitch of the
voice and the launching of vowels and
certain consonants 60 A brogue NAV
De disadvantage in a drawing-room,
but from my particular point of view it
is not one" "Well, observed, chow
do you account for the number of good
voices in the United States, among
Americans who have no brogue, and are
OF Anglo-Saxon origin?" Nine Marches
replied that American girls learned to
speak in their public and other schools
very distinctly and audibly, and were
often obliged to give their impressions
and ideas on many subjects orally as
well as in writing. The spoken and |
improvised essay was the best way to
acquire good diction, but on condition.
Of course, that the matter with which
1t dealt was well understood by the
speaker. The sing song delivery of a
thing learned by rote was unconsciouslv
avoided and as teacher at some dis
tance was the person addressed, it would
not do to clip words. Peculiarly Ameri-
can defects were easily surmounted bv
singer. Nine. Marchesi insisted again
on the music of English poetry. She
was half inclined to think that England
must have been a land of song and good
when society was less conven-
.iOnal than it is now.

sHAKEsPEARE AS A LAWYER.

Shakespeare's writings will prove him
a bishop, a rrivy councillor, q soldier, Q
traveller, an apothecary, painter for.
ester, an artificer and husbandman.
Even for Shakespeare the year had only
SG5 days and we know that his life was
too short for all this. What Shakes.
peare's varied knowledge does prove is,
IN the first place, the unequalled insight
and facility with which his genius as
simulated every kind of matter that was
tit for his purposes. But his technical
knowledge of law in particular is by no
means without parallel examples in
other dramatists of the time. Add to
this the fact that Shakespeare was n
country gentleman with legal business
OF his own to attend to, and consider
that he would not have introduced in
acting plays, for the sake of showing off
his knowledge to a few, points not likely
to be Ineligible to the majority of his
audience. Then the natural inference
which it would not be difficult to con-
firm from other sources is that in the
sixteenth century the lay people, and
especially landowners, knew a great deal
more of the law than they do in the
nineteenth. 1t must be remembered
that England, in this respect, now
stands alone in Europe. Nowhere else
is the law such a mystery. Various
causes may be assigned for the different
state of things down to Shakespeare's
time; among others, there was not only
much less law to be known, but it was
much less easy for dwellers in the
country to command skilled advice.
People who could not write to town for
counsels opinion as a matter of course
had of necessity to be their own lawyers
to some extent. And we fully believe
Shakespeare to have been a lawyer,
probably very competent one, to that
extent; but no further or Otherwise

LITERATURE IN THE MIDDLE AGES

The monasteries of the Middle Ages
were the conservatories of iteratnre
just as the frozen soil preserves in its
bosom, through long, cheerless davs Of
winter, seeds which shall afterward
clothe the earth in beauty and fill the
ar with fragrance, so did the non-pro-
gressive institutions of the Dark Ages
cherish the germs already budded into
iorm' which were ere long to burst the
crust OF superst.tious ignorance. and
come forth fresh and sweet in the sprinp-
time OF intellectual awakening.
We OF modern times cannot be too
grateful to the cowled ecclesiasts of
those early days, who lave bequeathed
TO us so rich treasure. Nearly all that
Is valuable i'll revelation, in history. in
theology, in science, art and govern
ment-in fact, the great bulk of Itera-
ture OF every kind belonging to the
dawn OF the Christian era, has come
down to us through the medium of
monks and anchorites of the early
church.
Nor has the crypt preserved for us
sacred literature alone, but also large
portion of immortal writings of profane
authors previous to the Christian era
The histories of Tacitus gathered dust
Ill monks cell long before they were
given to the world. Some of Cicero's
dissertations lay among the wine casks
OF an ancient monastery till they were
so discOlOred that only the keen-eved
medieval schoolmen could make them
out Livy's manuscripts were found in
a monks closet, so were Aristotle's.
Truly, the strOngholds of the venerable
fathers were keeps of which the world
may well be proud since they sheltered
Aristotle and Cicero and Tacitus and
Lucullus, and scores of other immortal
writer's, from the devastating hand of
barbarism.

THE BACK BONE LAND GRANT.

Our neighbor of the Natchitoches
Democratic Review very properly
takes the CHRONICLE to task forfthe
ridiculous blunder made last week In
confounding the Back Bone grant,
which was not forfeited, with the Texas
Pacific grant, which ,cas forfeited by
Congress. The first lies within this
State, and settlers have the privilege
of purchasing the same under the
terms heretofore published. The latter
lies outside of the State, and, with 1t
we are not directly interested. we
discovered our error last week within
an hour after publication, but it was
too late to make correction, and SO the
CHRONICLE man has to shoulder his
blunder and keep awake next time.
