AN EVENING WITH CARLYLE.

TO m evening with Carlyle there was
almost invariably In my own cnse, one
appendaee. When | rose to 60 about
10 or 1890 o'clock. he would say: wait
til ! put on my shoes and I'll walk a
bit with YOU The shoes on, and the
dressing gown in which he usually sat
exchanged FOR coat with the addition
of an overcoat II the weather required
It, but never OF an umbrella. and never
thing else but soft and wide felt. we
would sally forth. The direction being
determined by convenience, our route
was almost uniformly by Cookies
grounds to Kings road. and then eithor
along the lighted and still lively Kings
road TO Sloane street or. for the great.
er quiet, through q diagonal zlgzag Of
streets and squares, bringing us out at
the upper or Hyde park end OF Sloane
street All the way through the lamp
lit streets he would continue the talk
AS he had no bashfulnees In letting his
voice be heard by casual pBssersby, and
as he was often led In one OF his OBJ
jurgatIons not only TO raise his voice,
but also to apostrophlze the absent OBJ
jet Of his wrath as II he we're present,
the result was sometimes n little awk-
ward II tell you what, sir. II had my
will I'd lay whip across the back
OF your was one such apostrophe Of
his, spoken in n loud voice. and with
some angry gesticulation, as | was once
walking by his side. the object really
addressed being some absent evil -doer
or some persenincatlon Of evil doing he
had been conjuring up. but the effect
being such that the passerby, knowing
nothing OF the context, naturally look
ed round at me.--LThe Late David Mas
