A dispatch from London says ;
News has been received Of the death
in New Zealand prison Of Sir
Charles Wentworth Burdett Mt tho
age Of 54 lie succeeded his father
as the seventh baronet i'm 1S48 and
served until 1862 in the army a. an
officer, and greatly distinguished
himself in the Crimean war.
Drink and cards led to his ruin.
After losing his mnney and reputa-
tion he cmigrated to America and
drIfted about until he reached San
Francisco, where he acted flr a
time rs a stableman in q livery
stable
Finally he shipped before the
mast on vessel bound for Mel
bourne, and trampcd about the Aus
trnlian colonies until four months
ago, when he was sentenced al
Auckland to a term OfimprisonInent
for theft.
He was a professional mendicant,
wandering about with shoeless feet
and disreputable hat, picking up a
prccarious subsistence by cooking
for bushmen and doing menial SER
vice about the squatter's stations.

II Is small wonder that a species OF
mental dyspepsia is laying waste the
literary digestion Of the world and
creating strange appetitcs, when we
consider how most reading Is done,
Tho man who, after a hurried break
fast, reads the morning paper on tho
train or street car, tasks the eyes and
nervous system, and remembers little
or nothing Of the scrappy, highly sea-
sOned matter contained in the paper,
"A MONDAY snatch at another paper,
or, II the reader Il woman, at a nov
el, while eating lunch, affords no
more satisfactory literary meal. In
the evening there Is another newspa-
per to agct through" including prob
ably a syndicate story with perfect
nightmare Of illustrations; or, the
reader finds q fascinating novel, and
devours it before going TO bed, or even
In bed, giving to an unwholesome ex-
citcment the precious hours before
midnight that ought to be spent in
sleep. A few years Of this sort oi
reading brings on chronic mental dys-
pepsia. The reader never reads thor
oughly, and cares for lower and lower
grades Of reading. Long ago, when
people had more time than books, II
was often the custom to have a book
