 BERT HARTE, who has a great social as we'll as literary popularity in England, is now handsome, ruddy, white haired man, and owes his popularity in measure to his mastery of Western slang, and that eloquence of Restitution of the proper phrase, his pathetic, un- educated, humoristic slang.
 GEORGE MEREDITH, the novelist, lives in the country all the year round, save for an occasional flying visit to the town. He has place near Box Hill, which he has tenanted for many years, partly owing to the fact that the air there suits his delicate health. He largely rewrites his novels when they are returned to him in proof, and is very assiduous in polishing his epigrams and clever sayings.
