1891. Green cloth and silver. Pages, H.
Price, $3.50
This is an excellent work, and highly
ENJOYABLE. It is a literary novel. and
introduces a coterie of celebrities. There
are "the Leviathan Of Letters" with his
toady and butt, and yet his great biogra-
pher, Sir Joshua Reynolds, with his ear
trumpet; Garrlck, Goldsmith the two
Burkes, Edmund and Richard. and Others
between whom are many racy and en-
PERTAINING discussions AID colloquies. The
trick which Garrick plays of upon DR..
Johnson Is very rich. Goldsmith is the
hero Of the book. Despite the meanness
Of his stage-manager, Coleman, he
achieves a grand success with his play.
"She Stops to Conquer" He was great
ly perplexed about title eor it. and
thought OF styling II 'The Mistakes Of
Night" Dr. Johnson tried to dictate the
name Of "The Bellies Stratagem," but
Little Comedy" suggested "she Stops
TO Conquer" and Goldsmith never after
wavered In his choice OF IL.
Little Comedy was the bright and
yivacious married sister OF the Jessamy
Bride, who never was, as far as our
story goes. bride at all. She was for
years secretly and silently beloved by
Goldsmith. but he only poured forth his
ardent affection for her In the best strains
OF hts poetical genius, which he kept
concealed. She was Mary Horneck, with
whose family Goldsmith was on very
friendly terms. They wished her to make
a desirable match with one Colonel Gwyn.
OF the British army. and invoked the in
fiuence Of Goldsmith with their daughter
20 get her to yield to their wishes. which
he did, in as good faith as was possible.
whilst his own heart was breaking with
his suppressed devotion to her. Before

Another remedy which is quite efflca-

paced on the muslin and sifted through.
The chickens cough and expel the worms.
In the way Of internal treatment, cam

value. Camphor should be given in pills

Lines to n Skeleton.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
In looking over an old scrap-book ] was
much IMPRESSED with the beauty or tho
following stanzas, and ask mat you
kindly publish them. as l am certain
many Of your subscribers VIII enjoy read
ing this exquisite poem. ~
Eighty years ago the London Morning
Chronicle published a poem entitled
Lines 20 a Skeleton" which excited
much attention. Every effort, even TO the
Offering Of a reward of 50 guineas, was
vainly made TO discover the author. All
that ever transpired was that the poem,
In a fair. clerkly hand, was found near
a skeleton OF remarkable beauty Of form
and color In the Museum of the Royal
College OF Surgeons, Lincoln's Inn, Lon
don. and that the curator Of the museum
had sent them to Mr.. Perry, editor and
proprietor of the Morning Chronicle:
Behold this ruinl Twas q skull,
once Of therial spirit full;
Tn's narrow cell was Mes retreat,
Tins space was thoughts M 5tcrious
seat
What beauteous vision filed this spot!
What dreams OF pleasure long forgot!
Nor hope, nor JOY love nor fear,
Have left one trace of record mere
Beneath this Wondering canopy
Once shone the bright and busy eye'
But start not at the dismal void,
If social love that eye employed
If with no lawless fire II CLEANED,
But through the dew OF KINDNESS pednh-
ed
- That eve shall be forever bright,
When stars and sun are sunk In night.
Within this hollow cavern hung
The ready, swift, and tuneful tongue;
If falsehood's honey II disdained.
And where it could not praise was
chained;
If bold I'm virtues cause II spoke,
Yot gentle concord never broke;
This silent tongue shall plead for thee
When time unveils eternity.
Say. did those fingers delve the mine?
or with it onvied rubies shine?
TO hew the rock or wear the Sem'
Can little now avail TO them.
But If the page Of truth they sought,
OR comfort 90 the mourner brought;
These hands a richer need shall claim,
Than all that wait on wealth or fame.
Avails IL whether. bare or shod.
These feet the depths of duty trod?
If from the halls of ease they fed,
To seek Affections humble shed;
If grandeur's guilty bride they spurned
And home 10 virtues cot returnedi
These feet with angels wings shall vie
And tread the palace Of the sky.

On the Manner of an Introduction
-


II is notifying to note how many
nersons pay little or no heed 10 what
NAV be STYLED the etiquette Of introduce
lions To the lover Of good form there
is something that sets ones teeth on
edge on hearing an Introduction so
worded that q woman is presented to a
man. or an elderly woman to young
one. The rules With regard to intro
ductions are so simple and sensible that
IL would seem that the wayfaring man
or woman. though fool. could scarcely
err therein. A man is always intro
duced 10 a woman. and II may be well
IN passlng TO add that lady's permits
sion should usually be asked before
such a presentation is made. 1t Is a
simple matter to say. Miss Smith, may
I present TO you Mr.. Jones?' before
uttering the formal. Miss Smith. allow
me 10 Introduce Mr.. Jones"
The man is. OF course, always brought
10 the woman whom he Is to meet; the
woman should never be led TO the man.
These rules might seem superhuous
were II not that one SO often observes
their infrac'ion among people Vho should
