again and again into the quivering
breast of its victim. Finally he dashed
it down, pushed the paper from him as
one would spurn vanquished enemy,
and sank, limp and exhausted, into a
chair. I snatched up the paper eager

Falstaff: call him dog, forsooth, be-
cause he snarls-
Snarls, dye hear ?-and laves his rabid
fangs
In slobber-froth that drips in Shiny

OF venomous SANDER. Out upon the

He sets his NANCY foot upon the sod,
And grass grows rank and withers at
the touch,
And tangles into wiry thatch for
snakes
To spawn beneath. The very air he
breathes
Becomes a poison gas, and generates
Disease and pestilence. Would he
were here,
That I might whet my sword against
his ribs,
Although his rotten, putrid soul I'M
housed
Would breed q stencil worse than my

in half-rebuking, half-compassionate
tone, he stood milking his beard and
blinking at the chandelier.

pardon for the insinuation, which l
begged he would believe was not in

ond thought, was satisfied that no
such matter did exist in the printed
history, which fact have since proved
by thorough investigation.
It required, however, considerable
inventive tact and show of admiration
to counterfeit the effect Of my indfs-
Greet remark and this was not etfec-
tually accomplished until + had Incl
dentally discovered a marked resem-
blance of his brow to Shakespeare's,
which, by actual measurement, found
to correspond to fraction with the
measurement of the mask Of that H.
lustrious bard, as furnished by an ex-
haustive article I had seen short
time previous in one Of our magazines.
This happily brought about the re-
suit I so much longed for. as I was
extremely DESTROYS of a further op-
portunity in which to study the char
acter of this remarkable man. "Ah,
Shakespeare" said he, in a burst of
genuine eloquence,-"therew was mind

He snatched at the paper wildly,
and bending over it, began writing
with a vindictiveness of effort that
was alarming. He slashed the t's and
stabbed the punctuation points savage

spersed occasionally with a pause in
which he would flourish his pencil like

scrap Of wrapping paper from the
counter, and bending over it, was writ
ing with great rapidly.
His manner was decidedly singular.
In the occasional pauses he made, he
would lean his forehead in the palm
Of his left hand, with the fingers dane
ing nervously upon the bald spot on
the summit Of his head, while with the
hand that held the pencil he kept up a
continued rotary movement in the air.
Then he would suddenly pounce down
upon the paper before him as though
in q perfect frenzy of delight, and line
after line would appear as if by magic,
each succeeding one preluded by that
sharp little yelp of laugh: and ere
three minutes had elapsed, he had COW
cred both sides of the paper. He then
threw down his pencil, as though re-
luctantly, pushed me the scrap and
motioned me to read.
I was at first completely mystified,
for what had confidently expected to
be rhyme was prose; but ere had
examined it far I was as highly graft
fed as at first disappointed. The writ
ing, although so recklessly scrawled,
was quite legible, and here and there
gave evidence Of more than ordinary
grace and elegance; the punctuation,
20 far as was able to judge, seemed
perfect in every part; and, in fact, the
entire production bore the appearance
of having been executed by q skillful
hand.
I copy it verbatim from the original
scrap, which now lies before me:
By this time they had come upon

roadside, and, in harsh, cracked
voice, grooming a dismal ballad. by

burst Of admiration, "did not tell

some wicked enchanter; for thou hast

grace and sweetest dignity voiced, as
it were, from the very tatters that en-
clothe her form?" Indeed thou may

knight, "lest I make thee gnaw thy

words with loosened teeth. Listen
what liquid syllables are spilled upon
the atmosphere:
my fathers halls, SO rich and rare,
Are desolate and bleak and bare;
My fathers heart and halls are one,
Since I. their life and light, am gone.
20, valiant knight, with hand Of steel
And heart of gold, hear my appeal:
Release me from the spoilers charms,
And bear me to my fathers arms"
The knight had by this time thrown
himself from his steed, and with lance
reversed and visor dotted he sank upon
his knees in the slime and ooze of the
dixie, exclaiming: "Be Of good heart,
fair princess! Thy succor is at hand,
since the Fates have woven thee-the
pearl of pearls-intO the warp and
wool of my great destiny. Nay, nay D!
No thanks! Thy fathers beaming eye

thou shalt go, even, though must

Good" said I, grasping the old man
by the hand. Hail, Cervantes!"
"Cervantes? Cervantes?" he unused,
as though bewildered; "why, what
have 1 been writing? Is it not poetry?"
"Yes." I replied enthusiastically.
'both prose and poetry, and that of the
rarest school. Read for yourself"

haunts me even now, your own eyes
needs must moisten as you read:

AS sad as the song in his bosom to-
night,
For the magical touch of his fingers
alone
Cannot waken the echoes that
breathe it Alright;
But oh !! as the smile of the moon may
impart
A sorrow to one in an alien cline,
Let the light of the melody fall on the
heart,
And cadence his grief into musical
rhyme.
The faces have faded, the eyes have
grown dim
That once were his passionate love
and his pride;
And alas! all the smiles that once bios

Have fallen away as the flowers have
died.

And crowned him with fame in the
