way, standing on a hill in cold relief
against the 1eaden March sky that shed
rain in occasional showers. We left the

arrived in front of the house. 1t stood
back some distance from the lane, in spa

a condition as long neglect would naturally
leave 1t. It was a fostering sore on the
fair face of the landscape. Many palings
had dropped from the front fence and re-

grass and the rank growth yet standing.

Indifferent assortment of great poets at
the present time. The death of Tenny
son, however, created a demand for poet
laureate timber, and Austin, who is said
to be better courtier than poet, was
chosen to stop the gap. There were bet

Swinburne and William Morris, but
Swinburne is very democratic in his

Their claims to the laureateship were
naturally presented to Premier Salisbury
by their numerous friends and admirers
and the imaginative eye may in fancy
see the noble marquis, regent of British
poesy, expressing the great bards back
to their friends with the trite editorial
comment that 1.-THE rejection of poet

and is native of Headingly, near Leeds.
His father was a magistrate OF Leeds
and his mother was a sister Of Joseph
Locke an eminent civil engineer of the
day. He was graduated from the Uni

from a good medicine, is early in the

and, in fact, delay giving attention to
their physical condition so long that a
long siege of sickness lis inevitable.
To rid the system of the impurities &C
cumulated during the winter season,
to purify the blood and to invigorate
the whole system, there is nothing

words were uttered by Miss Mossop,

health is a matter of general rejoicing
among her friends. To reporter she
gave her story as follows: scarce
