THACKERAY AT OXFORD.
A Jolt to the Authors Fame and an
Awful Libel on Punch.

The ignorance of the scholar con-
corning what is going on in the world
around him is proverbiaI. But a story
of Thackeray's own telling gives an
astonishing instance of 'cloistered
ignorance" at Oxford in the last cen
fury Thackeray, it seems. was to lee
ture ut oxford and. according to GUS
tom, had first to get the vice chancel-
lors license to do so. This is the CON
versation that occurred, as the novelist
reported it:
| do for you?
Thackeray-My name is Thsckeray.
Vice Chancellor-So l see by this
card.
Thackeray-I seek permission to lee
ture within your precincts.
Vice Chancellor-Ah! You are a lee
turer. What subjects do you under
take. religious or political:
Thackeray-Neither am literary
man.
Vice Chancellor-Have you written
anything?
Thackeray-Yes; l am the author OF
Vanity Fair"
Vice CHANCELLOR presume a dis
senter. Has that anything to do with
John Bunyan's book?
Thackeray-Not exactly. | have also
written "Pendennis."
Vice Chancelor-Never heard o.
these works, but no doubt they are
proper books
Thackeray-I have also contributed
to Punch.
Vice Chancellor - Punch? | have
heard of that. Is it not Il ribald pub
lication?
