Z Little Hamstede.

A kindly, honest and simple little man
was Frederick William Hamstede, origi-
nally a city clerk of London and a versifier
who concocted worthless doggerel for love
and not reward at a rate which would sur
prise most poetasters. Yet his claim to
remembrance lies now in the fact that
Thackeray called him "dear little Ham,
stede" and loved and protected him from
banter with a strange and touching chiv-
airy. b
If any one laughed at the great novel
lists attachment to so insignificant pro-
tege, Thackeray would exclaim:
''No one shall say word against little
Hamstede in my hearing. love little
Hamstede. l tell you love little Ham
stede, and as for his verses over which you
have been making merry all care to say
is that take more pleasure in reading his
poetry than l do in reading your prose.
The secret of this large hearted protec-
ton was not far to seek. Hamstede was
a dwarf and a hunchback. He had been
crippled by falling from nurses arms in
infancy and could not get about without
q cane. Thackeray, the giant, loved him
for the sufferings he had undergone

Chinese Poetry In English Verse.
For many centuries the Chinese nation
has closely cultivated the poetic art and
still turns out annually more poetry than
all the rest of the world put together. All
modern Chinese statesmen are poets more
or less. The late Marquis Tseng, who
taught himself English with only the aid
of Murray's grammar and Nuttall' !,
dictionary, began early to drop into poe
try. The following lode at Parting" was
handed by him to an English fellow trav-
eler on one Of the local steamers:
When we reached the mouth of the river,
See now the ocean red!
Very glad to meet you
And talk on the captains bed.
Poets, properly so called, are not to be
found in China at the present day. Apoet
is, in Chinese terms, a "wind man'-that
is, one whose spirituality is quickened by
the divine Aura. He is, emphatically,
born and not made. Ii T'ai-po "a. D..

of age he indited the following impromptu:

Rain cannot quench thy lanterns light;
Wind makes it shine more brightly bright.
Oh, why NJ { fly to heaven afar
And twinkle near the moon-a star?
