PREFACE.

From the favourable reception accorded last year to the first issue
of the Forfar Directory, the Publisher has every confidence in
issuing this, the second number.

It contains a full List of the Voters in the Burgh, with their
addresses and occupations ; a Directory of Trades and
Professions ; also, particulars of the Public Boards, Associ-
ations, Societies, Clubs, &c., in Town — information regarding
which, having been received from Secretaries, &c., may be relied
on as accurate. In addition to these, there is added a List of
Farmers, &c., in the neighbouring Parishes.

The Almanac for 1886, which accompanies it, will be found
useful for general information.

Altogether, it is the most complete and useful Directory for
Forfar ever published, and will prove of very great convenience
all the year round.

The Publisher takes this opportunity of thanking the Advertisers
who have made use of it for their Announcements, and also
Secretaries and all others who have so readily given information.

ACUEIOUS rock, situated at the Quiraing in the north-east of Skye. It is of the
same structure as the Old Man of Storr and the Stacks of Duncansbayhead, and
stands amidst a lot of high rocks of all sizes and shapes, as if Nature had thrown all her
" odd bits " Into a corner. The Quiraing mountain is 1,774 feet in height, sloping by a
steep declivity towards the west, but presenting north-eastwards a face of rugged preci-
pices, varied by huge columns of basalt and many fragments of fluted rock. In other
parts large concave sections, ribbed by fissures, form outlets in wet weather for numerous
little streams. The Quiraing proper is a green platform, covered with turf, 1,500 feet
high, 300 feet long, and 180 feet broad ; the Needle itself being 120 feet high. The district
round about is interesting in connection with the adventures of Charles the Pretender,
and also of Flora Macdonald. Her monument is at Kilmuir, a few miles to the north-
west. She died in 1790, and there were about 3,000 mourners at her funeral. On the
east of the Quiraing is Loch StaflBn, so called from the formation of the rocks being
similar to the rocks at Staffa and at the Giant's Causeway, although they are not by any
means so well defined. The salmon and lobster fishings all round this coast are very
profitable, a large part of the "catch" being sent to the London markets via Strome
Ferry and Inverness.

A rich man has mair cousins than his faither had kin.

He's gane a' to pigs and whistles. He's better fed than bred.

KITCHEN GARDENER'S CALENDAR.

January. — This is the month for preparing early vegetables,
whether by the hot-bed or in the natural ground. If you have
any lettuce plants in fi'ames, let them, whenever the weather
is fine, enjoy the open air, and even in wet weather do not
exclude the air altogether ; but should the frost be rigorous,
let them be closely covered up. If the weather be open,
asparagus, radishes, carrots, spinage, parsley, &c., for early
use may be put in preparation this month. The soil must be
prepared for Tarious crops, such as peas and beans ; some
kinds of the former may be sown in a favourable state of the
weather.

SCIENTIFIC ITEMS.

The printed records of
inventions, which may be
consulted in the Patent
Office Library and in the
other chief libraries, be-
gin with the year 1617.
The first record of a
patent being granted
dates from Edward III.,
who gave to two alder-
men and their assigns
the patent privilege of
the sole making of the
philoscpher's stone.

To the list of novel
inventions, commencing
with wooden nutmegs,
must now be added paper
cigars, large quantities
of which have been im-
ported into the Austra-
lian colonies. A corre-
spondent describes these
as being such an exact
imitation of the tobacco
leaf, and so well fla-
voured, that it takes
a magnifying glass to
detect the deception.
He adds, too, that they
burn well and hold their
white ash firmly.

A New York firm has
commenced putting up
writing-ink in paper-
pulp bottles.

This year we have
seen the completion of
one of the greatest sub-
marine engineering feats
ever attempted in Great
Britain. The Severn tun-
nel was begun 16 years
a^'o by the Great Western
Railway, and has cost
more than a million of
money. The tunnel has
been twice flooded by
boring into springs of
water. The river is 2J
miles broad at the tun-
nel, which, however, is
about 4 miles in length,
to allow for the gradient
on both sides, the top
of the tunnel being 50
feet below the deepest
part of the tunnel.

The clever process by
which original photo-
graphs are reproduced in
this almanac is one of
the most wonderful
things in the history
of printing — the ph-ito-
graphs themselves being
left intact and the effect
being equal to copper-
plate printing.

February. — Dig and trench vacant ground, and prepare
especially such ground as may be required for early crops.
Choose southwardly exposed or sheltered situations for peas,
beans, &c., and continue to sow them in favourable weather.
Cut early kidney potatoes for seed, and start their growth by
placing them in hot-beds. Care must be taken properly to
protect and train cucumbers and melons. Asparagus to be
forced. Mushroom beds may be formed, and the old ones
carefully defended. In the beginning, or at any time during
this month, you may make a hot-bed for early kidney beans.
Sow the different kinds of small salading, such as cresses,
mustard, radish, and lettuce, once a week, if the weather be
open. Cauliflower plants, in frames, should have the free air
every mild day, by taking the glasses entirely off. Cauliflower
seed may be sown. Early cabbage, if strong in growth, should
now be transplanted. Late cabbage may be sown.

MUSIC AND PAINTING.
The Birmingham
musical festival is always
the occasion of introduc-
ing some new and first-
class music. Since Men-
delssohn's " Elijah " was
produced there in 1846
under the baton of the
great composer himself,
every triennial festival
has been looked forward
to by the musical world
with much interest.
Three years ago the
"Redemption," by
Gounod, was produced,
and in 1885 the chef
d'ouvre was ' ' Mors et
Vita," by the same com-
poser.

A sad swindle has
lately come to light. It
seems that some smart
artist painted a copy of
Mrs. Butler's "Roll Call"
with wonderful ingenu-
ity and sold it to a gen-
tleman. It was taken
out to Australia, and
our cousins went into
ecstasies about it, some
critics stating that they
had seen it in London
on its first appearance.
The upshot was that it
created quite a furore,
and the government
there offered to buy it
for the National Gallery
of New South Wales.
All the time the real
picture was hanging in
Windsor Castle, where it
is most probably at the
present moment.

The total number of
persons who were taught
di-awing, painting, and
modelling through the
agency ©f the Science
and Art Department was
in 1882 upwards of
900,000; in 1883, 843,000;
in 1884, about 852,000.
Drawing was taught in
1884 to between 700,000
to 800,000 children and
pupil teachers in elemen-
tary schools, and above
500,000 children and
8,363 pupil teachers were
examined.

The Glasgow Select
Choir has lost a very
popular leader by the
death of Mr. James
Allan. When the Choir
went periodically to Lon-
don they were well re-
ceived, the houses being
always crowded.

Makch.— Attend to the state of what has been planted in
the two previous months. Transplant cauliflower into rich
ground. Sow brocoli for early crops. Transplant cabbages of
all kinds into the place where they are to remain. Transplant
and sow lettuce ; sow savoy ; sow spinage to succeed that
formerly sown; repeat the sowing once a fortnight ; sow onions
and leeks ; keep up the supply of radishes ; sow turnips,
carrots, and parsnips ; sow mint, garlic, scallions, &c. Plant
early potatoes in open weather. Transplant sweet herbs
intended for kitchen use. Plant young strawberries, and
dress strawberry beds. Graft apples, pears, &o.

REVISED VERSION.

There are some statis-
tics in connection with
the publication of the
Revised version of the
Bible which possess
interest. The new ver-
sion is the joint property
of the Universities of
Oxford and Cambridge,
and the work of printing
and publication has pro-
ceeded at the respective
establishments simul-
taneously. For that
portion of the work
done by the Oxford
university it is officially
stated that "at the
Wolvercote Mill, near
Oxford, 375 tons of rag
have been consumed in
making 250 tons of paper
for this issue of the
Revised version. This
amount would cover 2J
square miles, and go
round the world in a
strip of six inches wide,
or if the pages were laid
open one after another,
the sheets piled in reams
would make a column
ten times the height of
St. Paul's, or folded into
books before binding at
least 100 times that
height. The copies which
are being prepared by the
Oxford University Press
alone would, if piled flat
one upon another, make
a column more than 14
miles high, and if piled
end on end they would
reach 74 miles high. It
is hardly possible to give
an idea of the number of
skins required for bind-
ing, but it is calculated
that 1,560 goat skins
have been used in bind-
ing the copies presented
to the American Com-
mittee of Revision. A
special Act of Congress
has been passed to aidmit
these copies into the
United States free of
duty. Although, owing
to the heavy expense
incurred by the two uni-
versities in producing the
Revised version, it is not
likely to supersede the
present Authorised ver-
sion on account of cheap-
ness, it is interesting
to know that it is pub-
lished at moderate prices.

script sold for £33 6s. 8d.

April.— Let the cucumber and melon hot-beds, which were
made a month or two ago, be examined, in case they should
not have attained the proper heat. Sow these plants early in
the month ; transplant lettuces ; thin radishes ; sow round
radishes and spinage ; plant out full crops of cabbages and
savoys; still sow onions and leeks. Sow spinage for a succession
crop in May and June; it will yet succeed. Where a constant
supply of the plant is required, they ought to be sown once a
fortnight, as they soon run into seed. Beet, if omitted
previously, may still be sown. Plant slips and cuttings of
kitchen herbs, but take care not to give too much water to
thyme. Finish the grafting of all trees this month. Plant
strawberries in edgings ; add climbing plants of all kinds.
Beein the hoe cultinre of killing weeds wherever practicable.

LITERARY JOTTING Ss

One of the most suc-
cessful books issued in
1885 is the Life of Frank
Buckland, -which has
reached a fifth edition
within three months of
its first appearance.

A curious and un-
precedented case has
occurred involving the
question whether lec-
tures can be published
without the consent of
the lecturer. Mr. Wm. S.
Sime, bookseller, Glas-
gow, published some
lectures of Professor
Edward Caird under the
title "An Aid to the
Study of Moral Philo-
fophy." In the first
division of the Court of
Session 5 out of 9 were
in favour of Caird ; but
the case had not been
decided when we went
to press.

Goethe received from
his publishers between
1795 till his death in
1832 over £20,000, and
from 1832 till 1865 aboun
£23,000 have been paid to
his heirs. These are
small sums compared
with what some English
writers earn.

General G or d en's Diary
will be considered one
of the most interesting
books of the year ; also
the Life of General
Grant, which was nearly
ready some months be-
fore he died.

One of the most nota-
ble recent events in
the American publishing
world was the issue of
the Revised Bible on
Thursday, May 2l8t.
About midnight the
agents of the University
presses In New York,
Thomas Nelson & Sons
and J. B. Lippincott &
Co., began the packing,
so as to be ready to serve
customers at five o'clock
in the morning. Harper
Brothers also received
their four-volume edition
at midnight, and were
ready at daybreak to
ship and deliver. The
Eniflish edition was
delivered two days in
advance of the American,
in order to secure copy-
right, the English law
requiring the publication
first in Great Britain.

May. — Plant out cucumbers under hand-glasses. Plant now
a full crop of kidney beans to succeed those of last month ;
and in wet days put in the principal crop of runners.
Asparagus ought to be fit this month to be cut for use. In
moist weather transplant such lettuces as were sown the two
former months. Keep clean the beds of turnips, carrots,
parsnips, onions, <fec., and thin such as require it. Transplant
spring sown cabbage and savoys for autumn use, also red
cabbage. Plant out towards the middle or end of this month
the gourds and pumpkins sown in April. Plant out tomatoes
or love apples. Carrot seed may still be sown in succession ;
such as are •own in this month will be very acceptable.

BEHIND THE SCENES.

Miss Mary Anderson,
whose representations of
Shakespeare's characters
is so much admired, has
appeared in the bhake-
speare Memorial Theatre.
Stratford - on - Avon, in
the character of Rosa-
lind.

The copyright of the
" Bohemian Girl," by
Balfe, expired in the
autumn of 18S5, and this
will have the effect of
allowing it to be sung
everywhere without pay-
ment of royalties. It is
Balfe's masterpiece, and
is full of striking airs
and beautiful melody.

The death of an actor
called Henry Jackson or
Jacobson, a Jew, has
been the cause of a good
deal of talk on the sub-
ject of Jewish actors and
acting, and theatres
generally. It may be
interesting to note that
the first record of a
theatre was the pagan
one introduced by King
Herod. Josephus telk
of a "mimologos," or
actor of plays — much
beloved by Nero, but a
Jew by birth. In the
time of Marcus Aureliua
there was a popular
Jewish actress called
Faustina. J ews figure as
actors all through the
middle ages, and in the
present century some of
the leading actors and
actresses have been of
J ewish origin. The elder
Booth, Lucius Junius
Brutus ; Mesdamea
Rachel, Bernhardt, and
Mrs. Keeley, the actress;
Henry Russell, the com-
poser ; Braham, the
singer; and David James,
the well-known London
manager, are all children
of Israel.

It is said that Mr. J.
L. Toole received from a
collector of autographs a
book that he might enter
his name on the actors'
page ; but Mr. Toole,
with a desire for good
company, entered it on
the page for miniisters,
and wrote beneath it. In
the words of Paul Pry —
"1 hope I don't intrude."

SHIPS AND SHIPPING.

The fastest British
cruiser is the Mercury.
She is the swiftest full-
size ship afloat — attain-
ing an averar;e speed of
18^ knots. She is 300
feet in length and 46 feet
in breadth with a draiight
of 22 feet, and is one of
the new type of un-
armoured cruisers speci-
ally built for high speed.
Built of steel, she carries
10 64 puunders, costs
about £2U0, 000, and is one
of the most expensive
vessels afloat in propor-
tion to her tcnnage.

The most powerful gun
in the world is the 110
ton Elswick breechloader
on board H.M.S. Benboic.
This gun is more power-
ful than Krupp's 119 ton
gun, the energy at the
muzzle being 61,200 foot
tons as against 46,061
foot tons. This gun is
43 feet 6 inches long,
calibre 16-75 inches, and
fires a charge of 900 lb.,
and a projectile weighing
1,800 lbs., with a muzzle
velocity of 2,020 feet per
second.

It seems probable that
in a few years people will
have less to fear from
sea-sickness caused by
the rolling of ships.
Messrs. R. S. Froude &
P. Walls conducted some
experiments on board
H.M.S. Inflexible, Edin-
burgh, to obviate its
excessive rolling. These
consisted in fitting in
water tanks going all the
way across filled with
water, and by their
shape when the vessel
had recovered from a
roll the water rolled
more slowly than the
vessel and thus equalized
the motion. Mr. Walls
read a paper lately before
the Institute of Naval
Architects who criticised
it very favourably.

International Yacht
Race. — The question of
superiority between
British ' ' racing wedges"
and American "skim-
ming dishes," as the two
styles of yachts are
called, has been settled
meantime by the result
of this race, the Puritan
of Boston, U.S., having
beat Sir Richard Sutton's
Genesta twice riuming.

July.— Prepare ground for the autumn and winter crops.

Plant your principal crops of savoys and winter cabbages.

Transplant brocoli, and sow seed for a late spring crop. Plant

late crops of kidney beans. Sow onions to stand the winter,

but this not before the end of the month. About the middle

of the mouth you may sow some carrots, which will come into

use at Michaelmas, and continue good till the spring ; the

same remarks apply to turnips. Thin, transplant, and sow

lettuces, winter spinage, and several kinds of radishes,

particularly the turnip rooted. As celery is a water plant, and

requires to grow quick, it should be kept alive by wet

Lift aU winter onions that are full grown, and prepare

mushroom spawn.

SPORTS ON LAND and

SEA.

Yachting.— Is it allow-
able to enter here, under
the term yachtina; and
sports, an account of a
voyage of the Cunard
steamer Etruria? This
vessel has proved herself
to be the fastest ocean
steamer. The passengers
who ate their Sunday's
luncheon at Queenstown
on Sunday, the 16th
August, dined in New
York on the following
Saturday night, the run
being made from Queens-
town to Sandy Hook in
6 days, 1 hour, and 9
minutes, or, taking it in
corrected time, 6 days,
5 hours, and 31 minutes
— a vessel going with the
sun, that is to the west,
having a longer day than
the other way. The next
best run on record is that
of the Oregon, which was
done in 6 days, 10 hours,
10 minutes, corrected
time. The distance is
about 2,800 sea miles,
and the average rate was
ab >ut 19 knots per hour.

The most successful
yachts of the year are
the Irex, Marjorie, Tara,
Marguerite, and Dons.

Sculling.— The fastest
3 miles on record has
been rowed by Gaudaur
at Pittsburgh in 19 min-
utes, 32 seconds.

R UNNiNQ . -Ti3 e shortest
time on record in which
a mile has been run by
a professional is 4 min-
utes 16 l-5th seconds,
by Ciimmings of Paisley
in 1881, and by an
amateur 4 minutes
18 2-5th seconds, by W.
G. George in 1884. These
two champions met at
Lillicbridge on 31st Aug. ,
1885, when George won
in 4 minutes 20 l-5th
seconds, the ground
being wet. Cummings
won the 4 mile race on
12th Sept. in 18 minutes
46 seconds.

Myers has run a J of a
mile in 49 2-5th seconds,
the best on record over
a grass course.

Monarch, the famous
champion bull-dog, for
which £400 has been
refused, has just died.
He was the best dog of
the breed since Crib, and
took many prizes.

Age,

August. — Sow early and other cabbage seed to produce
plants for the service of next summer ; sow also red cabbage,
and Dutch and cabbage lettuces on warm borders, for winter
use ; finish planting savoys ; continue to sow onions, carrots,
radishes, and cauliflowers ; transplant celery into the trenches
for blanching ; continue to sow in succession several sorts of
small salad seeds, such as mustard and cresses. If your
cucumbers in the open ground stunt, curl, or canker, lay
little bits of new tile under them. Gather herbs for distilla-
tion, such as the mints, penny-royal, &c. Plant lavender,
rosemary, sage, hyssop, and other aromatic herbs. Take
particular care now of ripening melons, and in dry weather
give the advancing crops water;

CX)MMERCB.

On 1st July, 1885, a
parcel postage to or from
India was introduced,
whereby parcels not ex-
ceeding 7 lbs, in weiglit
could be forwarded to or
from Gibmltar, Egypt,
Aden, India, and British
Burmah. The rate to
Gibraltar is bd. per 1 lb.,
and 6d. per lb. there-
after. To Egypt Is. 3d.
per 2 lb., and 7Jd per
lb. thereafter. To Aden,
India, etc.. Is. per lb.
This is a very great
boon, and will no doubt
be largely taken advan-
tage of in sendiug out
packages of samples, etc.

The Japanese Post
Office, which is ten years
old, carried 95,000,000
letters and transmitted
3,000,000 telegrams last
year.

Great Britain possesses
colonies equal to 65
square miles in propor-
tion to 1 mile of mother
country. Holland isnext
with 54 miles, Portugal
with 20, Denmark with
6, France with barely 2.
The colonies held by
Great Britain exceed the
H u 8 8 i a n Empire by
2,000,000 square miles,
and extend over nearly
one-sixth of the land
area of the globe.

The Free Congo State,
with Mr. H. M. Stanley
as Governor, under the
King of the Belgians,
is another sign that
Africa is being surely
if slowly opened up. No
one can say what good
may come if humane
nations take the respon-
sibility of governing this
vast region.

Among evidences of
increasing prosperity in
India may be noted the
growth of the Excise
returns from £3,609,000
in 1882-3 to £4,070,000
(estimated) in 1885-6,
and of the Post- Office
revenue during tbe same
period from £978,000 to
£1,102,000. The grcss
earnings of the State
railways have increased
from £2,646,000 to
£3,842,000. The East
Indian Railway during
the same period has
exhibited some remark-
able fiuctuationa.

September. — This is the season for providing mushroom
spawn, and dung for the mushroom beds. The spawn is found
chiefly in diy old rotten dunghills ; it is a white fibrous
substance spreading in the dung. The spawn must be kept
from wet. Plant lettuces in frames for winter use; transplant
cauliflowers. The young cabbage plants which were sown
the first or second week of August for an early crop next
summer and autumn should be planted into nursery beds.
Continue to plant celery in trenches, and earth up the plants
as they advance. Continue to gather seeds. Cardoons, which
will now have made considerable progress, must be earthed
up for blanching, their leaves being previously tied up care-
fully and regularly. Cover asparagus with manure. Plant
cuttings of gooseberries, currants, raspberries, and straw-
berries. Bemove hardy everg^reeus, shrubs, dec.

HOME INDUSTRIES.
Some experiments have
been made with seeds of
wheat to see how long
they lived. For example,
out uf 100 grains of wheat
kept one year, 96 grew ;
out of 100 kept two years,
84 grew; three years, 60
grew ; four years, 43
grew; six years, only
6 grew. Those kept
seven, eight, and ten
years, all died. The same
results were obtained
from rye. Oats and
barley, however, kept
eight years without any
dying, but the plants
produced were of feeble
growth.

From the statistics
issued by the Home
OflBce in July, 1885, we
find that the output of
coal during 1884 is less
than it has been since
1878. In 1883 it was 163
million tons, and in 1884,
160 millions. The output
of ii'on during 1884 is less
than it has been since
1879; in 1883 it was 17
million tons, and in 1884,
16 millions. The jrield
of tin is slightly greater
in quantity, Dut of copper
and lead very much less.
It is satisfactory to know
that there have been
fewer accidents in coal-
pits than in any former
year since ofiBcial reports
were published.

In these days of foreign
competition it is impor-
tant that every farmer
should experiment on his
land with the view of
finding out not only
what kinds of seeds pro-
duce the best result,
but also what particular
variety of each seed is
best. It has been found,
for instance, that in the
case of wheat sown on
two fields similarly situ-
ated in all respects and
conditions, one variety
yielded at the rate of 60
bushels of 63 lbs., and
the other variety 40
bushels of 64 lbs. In
another case oats were
sown in two fields under
similar conditions. In
the field one was bad
or unsuitable seed , which
yielded only 22 bushels
worth about 1/6 each,
and In the other was
good seed, which yielded
23 bushels worth 3/ each.

October.— The latter end of this month, you may plant
beans for an early crop the succeeding summer. The Mazagan
bean will stand the winter best. Transplant lettuces for the
winter service. Towards the end of this month plant some
of the strongest cabbages in the place where they are to
remain for early use next summer. Plant out eai-ly in this
month any aromatic plants wanted, such as thyme, hyssop,
sage, &c. Earth up celery on dry days. Clean water spinage.
Collect and preserve flower seeds, and transplant rooted
cuttings and layers. Dress wall trees and standards; and
remove green house plants to their winter shelter.

LAWS AND POLITICS.

Prince Bismarck, it
may not be generally
known, is a papermaker,
producing principally
grey and brown wrap-
ping paper, and clears
£10,000 a year out of
extensive paper mills
which he works himself.
His entire income is
about £18,000 a year, of
which his oflScial salary
forms but a small por-
tion. It consists only
of £2,700 per annum
with allowances ; his
stipend as Chancellor ;
and the pension of £450
from a former office.
Paper mills are thus
shown to be more profit-
able than politics.

The Gladstone Govern-
ment was defeated on
the Budget, and the
Conservatives, under the
Marquis of Salisbury,
agreed to carry on the
government of the
country till the general
election in November.
Notwithstanding the
wonderful statesmanlike
qualities of the ' ' Grand
Old Man " it seems as if
fate had been working
against him for the last
year or two. Nothing
seemed to go right ;
everything that he
touched seenaed destined
to failure. This is of
course the ebb and flow
of the tide. Every
Government must give
in to the succeeding one,
or there would be no
advancement made.
Every true Liberal and
Conservative must feel
that it is only fair that
the other side should
have its innings, and
then see if his side can't
beat it.

Wars and rumours of
wars have been filling
the air for the last
few months; first a
threatened Anglo-Rus-
sian war, and now, while
we write, a possible
rapture between Spain
and Germany, the casus
belli being the seizure of
the island of Yap in the
Pacific Ocean by the
Germans.

November. — Get everything out of the land this month
which is not Intended to stand during the winter. In the
middle, or towards the end of this month, is a proper season
to plant early beans, to succeed such as may have been planted
in October. The same direction may be applied to peas.
Brocoli may be laid down, and their heads pointed to the
north, especially the high growing kinds. Where the aspara-
gus beds were not cleaned and earthed during the last
month, it must now be done. Artichokes should now receive
their winter dressing. The beginning of this month you
should take up carrots and other roots to be preserved in
sand, be, for the use of the kitchen during the winter
months. After the middle, or towards the latter end of this
month, according to the state of the weather, will be the time

to put fires in the hot-houses, particularly in the evenings.

WIT AND WISDOM.

A paper pianoforte is
the latest accomplish-
ment. Everything is
paper except the wires.
But why not paper
strings ? We have in our
possession specimens of
Japanese tissue paper of
gossamer-like substance,
and so tough that when
twisted up into string it
is as strong as catgut.
If not a pianoforte, a
paper banjo, strings and
all, is by no means an
impossibility. The tone
of the before-mentioned
pianoforte is reported as
being peculiarly fine and
creamy. [Should read
superfine and cream-
laidy . ] It is further said
that the patentee is en-
gaged on a church organ,
every part — with one
exception — of which,
pipes and aU, is to be
made of compressed
paper. The exception is
the stuff that fills the
beUows, which is to be
real wind. We strongly
suspect that the bellows
stiiffing is the most
tangible thing about
this invention. "The
church quire is, of
course," says the in-
ventor, "to be made of
paper ;" but the gratui-
tous statement of so
obvious a fact will, we
are afraid, cause what
has preceded it to be
received with a certain
amount of distrust.

There is nothing on
earth so mysteriously
funny as a newspaper
advertisement. The first
and last object of an
advertisement is to draw
custom, It is not, was
not, and never will be
designed for any other
human purpose. So the
merchant waits till the
busy season comes, and
his store is so full of
customers he can't get
his hat off, and then he
rushes to the newspapers
and puts in his adver-
tisement. Give them
your advertisement right
between the eyes in the
duU season, and you will
wax rich and own a fast
horse, and perhaps be
able to smoke a good
cigar once or twice a
year.

DiCEMBER. — Remove decayed leaves from the cauliflower
plants, and let the plants have free air daring the day. If
the weather be dry and open, radishes and carrots, for an early
crop, may be sown. Keep up the succession of peas ; the kind
called hotspur is one of the best for this season. Plant beans
now, if you have not planted them earlier. Attend carefully
to have the mushroom beds defended from frost and wet.
Take advantage of the first day, if not frosty, to earth up
such of the celery as may be in a fit state for it; and see that
the plants are pretty dry before you begin earthing. Care-
fully examine fruit which has been laid up in the house.

EVENTS OF THE YEAR.

The Internatioral In-
ventions Exhibition,
popularly called the In-
ventories, following in
the wake of the Fisberies
and Heal theries, has been
a great success. The
total number of visitors
since the opcnins:,' on 4th
May till 25th July has
been 1,718,419.

The death of theMahdi
on 21st June has closed
the career of one who
has caused us a great
deal of trouble and ex-
pense, and lost to us the
lives of some of our best
officers and men. We
cannot help wishing
that Allah h.td made au
exception in him, and
that the proverb, "Whom
the godslove die young,"
had come true when he
was an innocent suck-
linsr.

The death of General
Gordon is one of the
results of this man's
holy madness. "Chinese
Gordon " was one of the
best known names either
at home or abroad ; and
his journals and diary,
just published, will be
read with great interest.

The marriage of
Princess Beatiico has
completed the list of
Royal marriages. Every-
one, we are sure, admires
Her Royal Highness for
her own amiable quali-
ties and devotediiess to
her widowed mother ;
while the fact that she
is an authoress and a
painter proves that she
has made good use of her
leisure hours. Long life
to her.

The death of ex-Presi-
dent Ulysses S. Grant
removes from us one of
the most popular and
distinguished men that
America ever produced.
He was one of the most
silent of men and a great
smoker, his silence bt-mg
proverbial. It is related
that after a dep'itHtion
bad expended upon him
all their oratory, he took
his cigar out of his
mouth, and throwing it
away, exclaimed,
" That's a very bad
cigar, leave your case
with me." That closed
the interview.

The Tides are produced by the attraction of the sun and moon, principally ^^ ^
that of the latter object. The cohesion of fluids being much less than that of o »
solid bodies, they more easily yield to the power of gravity; in consequence g ^
of which, the waters immediately below the moon are drawn up in a protu- !^ g
berance, producing a full tide, or High Water, at the spot where it happens. ^-

The mean duration of the ebb and flow is about 12h. 25m., that is, half the P
lunar day of 24h. 50m., the period elapsing between successive returns of the o
moon to the same point of the meridian. Thus the sea, in every place, under- J""
goes a flux and reflux as often as the moon passes the meridian, whether
superior or inferior of the place ; that is to say, twice in 24h. 50m.

GLASGOW UNIVERSITY.

THE University of Glasgow is situated on the bank of the Kelvin in the west end of
the City. The foundation was laid by the Prince and Princess of Wales in October,
1868, and the last part built — the Bute HaU — has only recently been completed. The
architect was Sir G. Gilbert Scott, and the general style is early English. The central
tower will be over 300 feet in height when finished, and the entire structure, standing
on a hill, has a most handsome and commanding appearance. The entrance doorway of
the Old College in High Street, bought up by the North British Railway Company, has
been presented to the Senate by a citizen, and is about to be erected at one of the
entrances to the grounds.

DUNROBIN CASTLE.

DUNROBIN CASTLE, the residence of the Duke of Sutherland, is situated near
Golspie, on the Dornoch Frith. The original Castle was built about a.d. 1097. By
recent additions the buildinor now presents a solid mass of masonry about 100 feet
square by about 80 feet in height. There are three main storeys besides the basement
and attics connected by a lower range of buildings with the old structure. The geneial
style is that of a French chateau or German schloss, and is built of white freestone got
on the Duke's property. The railway to Wick and Thurso passes the back of the Castle,
where there is a private railway station.

GLASGOW CATHEDRAL.

ri^iHE Cathedral of Glasgow, founded in 1123, is situated in the north-cijxst of the city.
JL It is dedicated to St. Kentigern, or St. Mungo as he is usually called, the patron
saint of Glasgow. Tradition relates that he came from Orkney in the year 539 to preach
the Gospel to the heathen living along the banks of the Clyde. After preaching there
some years he was expelled to Wales, where he founded the See of St. Asaph. A few
years afterwards he returned, and built a church about the year 560 on the spot on which
the Cathedral now stands. He died in 601, and his tomb is still to be seen in the crypt,
which is unsurpassed by any similar building in Europe. David I. of Scotland endowed
the Cathedral. The armorial bearings of Glasgow — being a tree, a bell, a bird, and a fish
with a ring in its mouth— represent miracles said to have been wrought by St. Mungo.
The bishops succeeding St. Mungo numbered fc.bout thirty, among whom the chief names
are Joceline, who laid the foundation of the present church ; Bondington, who finished
it ; Robert Wischard, who crowned King Robert the Bruce ; William Rae, who built the
old Stockwell Bridge ; Cameron, the magnificent prelate ; William Turnbull, the founder
of the Unive sity of Glasgow ; Blackader, who extended and beautified the Cathedral ;
and Beaton, nephew of the bishop of the same name. These were the names of some
of the Roman Catholic prelates who had held stately rule in these hallowed courts since
the days of St. Mungo. During Beaton's time the Reformation took place, and he retired
to France, taking with him the whole treasures and costly ornaments, chalices, and
images of gold and silver belonging to the Cathedral, and also the valuable archives of
the See from the earliest period till his own time. These were deposited partly in the
Scots' College of Paris, and partly in the monastery of the Carthusians there. The
reformers destroyed all the holy vessels and whatever they could lay hands on. A line of
fifteen Protestant Archbishops held the See at intervals during the alternate rule of
Episcoi)acy and Presbyterianism, The last one was John Paterson, and the Revolution
of 1688 took place a year after hi3 appointment. Since then Presbyterianism has held
sway ; and in the present day any one wanting to hear a "high Presbyterian service"
need only go to the Cathedral on a forenoon. To the late Sir Andrew Orr, when Lord
Provost of Glasgow, the citi^iens are indeLted for the first practical steps which led to the
noble scheme for filling the windows with painted glass. Noblemen and gentlemen in
the neighbourhood responded liberally, and the windows are now nearly all completed.
The late Mr. Charles Heath Wilson selected the subjects, and the chevalier, M. Ainmiller,
of the Royal Establishment of Glass Painting at Munich, was entrusted with the execu-
tion of them, onli' the best artists being employed. There is a most interesting book on
the history of the Cathedral and See of Glasgow, and catalogue of the painted glass win-
dows, published by Francis Orr £i Sons, Glasgow.

GENERAL GORDON.

THE death of General Gordon was accompanied by every circumstance that could make
the event most distressing and painful for his relations, his friends, and his coun-
trymen. Only a few weeks before the details of his magnificent defence of Khar-
tum were summed up and recorded, and on the very same day, as it happened, Sir
Herbert Stewart struck on the field of Abu Klea what seemed the first blow towards
effecting his deliverance. At the very moment we were beginning to flatter ourselves
that all anxiety might be laid aside, and that the doubts of many weary months of delay
and uncertainty could be safely banished. General Gordon was placed by the treachery of
some of his followers in the hands of the enemy whom he had so long and so valiantly
defied. Even then the hope was cherished that although Khartoum had fallen, its heroic
defender might have been spared ; but a harsh fate decreed otherwise. Charles George
Gordon was bom on the 28th of January, 1833, at Woolwich, in the very cradle of that
branch of the service in which he was destined to pass a life of more than usual dis-
tmction, even if his own proper career as an English officer be alone taken into considera-
tion. He was the fourth son of an artillery officer, Hem-y William Gordon, who attained
the rank of Lieutenant-General, and the associations of his youth, as well as the tradition
of his family, proud, and rightly so, of its connection with the great Highland house of
the same name, left him no choice save to adopt the profession of arms. When he was
little more than fifteen he was entered at the Royal Military Academv at Woolwich
Whether his earlier training had been deficient, or that he did not take kindly to tlie
course of cramming even then necessary to gain admission into the ranks of the seniur
arm of the service, the fact remains that he did not at first achieve any great distinction
in his studies, and on one occasion he received the rebuke, " that he would never make
an officer." Despite all unfavourable prognostications, he passed his examinations suc-
cessfully, and obtained the much-coveted distinction of a commission in the Royal Engin-
eers. At the end of 1854, when it was perceived that the Allied Forces would be detained
before Sebastopol during the winter, he was ordered to proceed with some huts to the
Crimea ; but by a piece of good luck he obtained permission to travel overland to Mar-
seilles, while the huts were sent round by sea in a collier. On his arrival in January,
1855, he was at once placed under the officer in command of a portion of the trenches,
and durmg the remaining nine months of the siege he took a prominent part in the
engineerino operations in front of the Russian stronghold. The close of the Crimean war
did not bring Gordon's connection with the Russians to an end. In 1858 he was sent
as special commissioner to the Caucasus to arrange certain points in connection with the
Armenian frontier from the Russian side. On this occasion he ascended one of the
peaks of Mount Ararat ; and it may be interesting to state that while the impression
he formed of the Russians at a distance, from their defence of Sebastopol, was most
favourable to them in their character of soldiers, his opinion was very much modified,
if not completely altered, on closer contact. The most striking trait in Gordon's character
at this time was the absence of the religious zeal which at a later period made it so
pronounced and peculiarly marked. After his return from Armenia, Gordon was
stationed at Chatham for a short period, but in the summer of 1860 he proceeded to
China, where an Anglo-Fi-ench expedition was carrying on operations to compel the
Chinese to ratify the treaty concluded by Lord Elgin in the previous year, and also to exact
reparation for the attack on Admiral Hope's squadron by the garrison of the Taku Forts.
The siege and capture of Soochow was the greatest and most difficult of Gordon's exploits in
China. As soon as he found himself firmly established on both the eastern and southern sides
of the town. Major Gordon took steps to shut in the Taepings on the western side also. He
accomplished this without much difficulty, and, after a desperate battle at Leeku, where
au officer was killed at his side, he acquired a position to the north of the town as well.
By the middleof October Major Gordon had, witha force of less than 15,000 men, succeeded
in almost completely investing the Taeping army of 40,000 men which garrisoned
Soochow. Gordon concentrated the whole of his force for attack, and, after a heavj^
cannonade, carried the Low Mun stockades at the head of his men. It is appropriate
to state here that, although he had to organize the simplest details in person.
Major Gordon was always the first man in these attacks. It was he who showed the way
to victory as well as how to prepare for it ; but he never carried any weapon save a small
cane, which the Chinese soon regarded with almost superstitious reverence and named
his " wand of victory." The decisive action of the campaign was the capture of
Chan9;chow, a town on the Grand Canal, half-way between Soochow and Nankin. It had
been in possession of the Taepings for four years, and was held in the spring of 1864 by all
the forces which they could muster outside of Nankin. Its capture brought the opera-
tions of the Ever Victorious Army to a conclusion, and three weeks later that force was
formally disbanded.

In this short page it is impossible to give more than a brief sketch of hi s later life. Suffice
it to say that after having been Consul at Galatz, Governor of Upper Egypt, Private
Secretary to Lord Ripon, again back to China, on Engineer's duty at Mauritius, then in
Basutoland, again off to Palestine, and elsewhere, he was asked by the Government to
go out to Khartoum. His marvellous defence of that place for twelve months and his
heroic death are all fresh in our minds. While at home he was much attached to his boys'
mission at Gravesend, where his name has become a household word.

GENERAL GRANT.

IN the person of Gteneral Grant, who died on the 23rd July, 1885, after a period of most
painml suffering borne with stoical fortitude and patience, the Republic of the United
States loses the most conspicuous historical figure of the momentous era of the Civil War.
He united the claims of the successful commander in the field to those of the chief
magistrate twice chosen by the voice of the nation to sit in the seat of George
Washington. His campaigns had not the fascination of General Sherman's famous
tnarch or of Stonewall Jackson's Cromwellian achievements, nor was his genius as a com-
inander displayed with the dignified and noble serenity, undisturbed in defeat as in
victory, which marked the career of his great antagonist, Lee. But in energy, in resolu-
tion, and in iron tenacity of purpose Grant was never sui-passed, and those qualities he
brought into exercise at more than one crisis when the Unionist cause was in danger
of moral enfeeblement and political decomposition. Every step in Granfs rapi(i
ascent to the supreme command of the armies of the Union was signalized by
exploits which, apart from their military value, were of priceless importance in
their influence on the spirit of the Northern people and on the temper of the soldiery.
On the 27th of April, 1822, in the village of Point Pleasant, Ohio, Hiram Ulysses Gra;;t
was born, being the eldest of the six children of Jesse R. and Hannah Simpson Grant.
His father was a tanner by trade, and, the year after his son's birth, he removed to George-
town, in the next county, where the lad's boyhood was passed. At 17 Hiram received
a cadetship in the Military Academy through the Congressman of his district, who
eiToneously registered him as Ulysses S. Grant, and so his name remains in history.
Graduated from West Point in 1843 young Grant was attached as Brevet Second
Lieutenant to the Fom-th Infantry, which two years later joined General Zachary
Taylor's army in Texas. War with Mexico broke out in the spring of 1846, and Grant
took part in the battles of Palo Alto, Molino del Rey, Chapultepec, and others. For
gallantry at Molino del Rey he was brevetted First Lieutenant, and then Captain later on.
in 1848 he married Miss Julia T. Dent of St. Louis. In 1854 he resigned from the army.
Seven years nearly of civil life ensued, in which he was successively a farmer at Gravois,
near St. Louis ; a real estate agent in St. Louis ; and finally an assistant of his father and
brother in the leather business at Galena, Illinois. The outbreak of the civil war found
him at Galena. Fort Sumter fell on the 14th df April, 1861. Ten days later Captain
Grant was in Springfield, the State capital, oiiering lor service a company of his towns-
men which he had drilled. Governor Yates, however found better employment for his
military training as a mustering officer of volunteers, and a month later commissioned
him Colonel of the Twenty-first Illinois Infantry, to date from June 17, 1861.
Early in 1862 his cap'ure of Fort Henry and Fort Donelson threw almost the
first bright gleam across the darkened prospects of the Federal cause in the West.
In 1863, after giving proof of his fighting quality in a succession of obstinate and
sanguinary battles, he struck a deadly blow at the hopes of the Confederacy by the
capture of Vicksburg. In 1864 he had become so incontestably the foremost soldier on
the side of the Union that he was called as much by the voice of the nation as by the
choice of the President to the office of Commander-in-chief. On the 9th of April, 1865,
just thirteen months after his accession to the supreme command. Grant received the
surrender of tie remnant of Lee's army at Appomattox Court-house, and brought that
war of giants to a triumphant close. The saviour of the Union and the victor of the
Confederacy has passed awny a few months after the twentieth anniversary of his crown-
ing achievement. His fame has in the interval undergone some stransre vicissitudes. If
any military work had remained to be done. General Grant would probably have escaped
the temptation of political life, for which he was not fitted either by nature or by habit.
His election, however, to the Presidency in 1868 was mainly due to a spontaneous move-
ment of popular gratitude, though it is to be remembered that some of the Southern
States were still excluded from political rights, and that the white population of the
South was for the most part disfranchised. General Grant's first administration was
signalized by important diplomatic successes — the settlement of the Alabama dispute by
the W^ashington Treaty and the Geneva Award, and of the San Juan boundary by the
Berlin Arbitration. In 1872 he was elected President for a second term, defeating Mr.
Greeley, whom the democrats had chosen as their champion. The honour of re-elt ction
had only been conferred, since President Jackson's time, on Lincoln during the crisis of
the civil war. In 1876 he retired from the Presidentship. During the eight years he
had been in ofiice many great events had occurred, and many iiuprrtant laws had
been passed. Grant then took a trip round the world, during which he was received
everywhere with enthusiasm. During his absence his friends again nominated him for
President ; but after a number of votes had been passed for him he retired in favour of
Garfield. His later life was in strong: contrast to his earlier years. Great as he was on
the battlefield and in the White House, as a private citizen he had not the same success.
Involved in financial schemes which broke down his health, he was placed on the retired
list, by which he received 13,500 doUars annually during life. On Christmas Eve, 1883,
lie slipped on the ice and hurt his hip. Great pain followed, and he was confined to bed
for some months. In June, 1884, the first sign of cancer in the tongue appeai-ed, being
the result of his habit of continually smoking, and after about 13 months' Ulness, in spite
of the best skill of the country, he succumbed to it, amid the regrets of all who knew him.

PRESIDENT GARFIELD.

THE news of President Garfield's death, on September 19, 1881, plunged two countries
into mourning ; for the feeling of sympathy with the victim and his family and of
indignation at the crime was hardly less strong in England than in America. From that
sad 2nd of July, the people of both countries watched in spirit, as it were, with the
devoted wife by the bedside of the wounded man. The facts of the attack on the
President and his illness are too fresh in the minds of our readers to need more than a
brief recapitulation. It was on the 2nd of July, in the railway station at Washington, as
he was about to start for the north, that the President, entering the waiting-room on the
arm of his minister, Mr. Blaine, was shot twice by Charles Gmteau. He was at once
conveyed back to the White House, where he lay dming the greater part of his illness,
attended by the highest medical and surgical skill that his country could furnish, and
watched tlu-oughout by his wife, who was svmimoned from Longbranch to his bedside.
At first it was thought that the patient could not smrvive many hovu-s ; but he rallied so
wonderfully that shortly there grew up a belief that by care and skill he might ultimately
recover, though the illness must be in any case most tedious. Towards the end of August
his medical attendants felt that his last chance of recovery depended on his removal from
the malarious climate of Washington ; and on the 6th of that month he was carried by
train to Longbranch, on the Atlantic coast, in New Jersey. The change, though it seemed to
revive him at first, was of no avail, and he gradually sunk. The hoior of death was half-
past 10 on Monday night, by American time; which is equivalent to half -past 3 on
Tuesday morning by English time. James Abram Garfield was born about 54
years ago, on November 19, 1831, in Orange Township, Cuyahoga County, Ohio, about
18 miles from the city of Cleveland. Like the two Adamses, Fillmore, Pierce, Lincoln,
Grant, and Hayes, he came from the Puritan stock of New England, which has given so
many great men to the United States. His mother, who has lived to see her son first
installed in the White House and then struck down in his prime by an assassin's hand,
is a native of New Hampshire. His father was of Massachusetts stock, and traced his
family back to 1635, when his ancestor, Edward Garfield, was one of the proprietors of
Watertown, and came with Governor Winthrop to find freedom of conscience in New
England. The President's father, Abram Garfield, settled in the Ohio forest a year before
the birth of his youngest child, James Abram, bought a tract of wooded land, built a log-
hut, and in three years had cleared a portion of the forest and begun the cultivation of
the soil. When his com was in the ear the neighbouring woods caught fire, and
threatened to destroy the ripening crop. Mr. Garfield, by great exertion, threw up a
dyke of fresh earth between the com and the fire. His crop was saved, but the farmer,
overheated and wearied, became chiUed while returning to his hut, and died of inflam-
mation of the throat. The mother Was left with two sons and two daughters, and passed
through extraordinary struggles and privations. She tilled the land with the oxen which
lier husband had left her, made her children's clothing with her own hands, and clothed
tiie children of a neighbotu-ing shoemaker, who, in return, made boots for her little ones.
In the winter, when they could not labour in the fields, the children went to school.
President Garfield told one of his biographers that from three to ten years of age he
attended school daily ; but after ten he worked in the summer on the farm. He gained
his first prize at the age of foxu-. Ic was a copy of the New Testament given to the best
reader in the primary class. He eagerly read all his mother's scanty stock of books,
learnt to recite by heart almost the whole of the " English Reader," borrowed "Robinson
Crusoe." "Josephus," "Goodrich's History of the United States," and PoUok's solemn
poem on the " Course of Time." But his favoiurite part of "Josephus" was " The Wars
of the Jews," and he was never tired of poring over accounts of battles and adventures
by sea and land, tales of bold buccaneers, of Algiers and the Spanish Main. Much later
in life, when he bad become a distinguished member of Congress, he said : " I tell you I
would rather now command a fleet in a great naval battle than be anything else on this
earth. The sight of a ship still fills me with a strange fascination." He was strong in
his boyhood and a great fighter, and was consumed by a burning passion to go to sea.
At the age of 16 he could do a man's work, and contracted with his cousin to cut 100
cords of wood for 25 dols. The task was performed in a tract of high woodland which
commanded a view of the blue waters of Lake Erie and the shipping in the port of Cleve-
land. With his boyish love of nautical adventure freshly stimulated, he walked to
I'leveland, and went on board a schooner lying at the quay to ask for employment.
Fortmiately the schooner reeked with unsavoury smells, the skipper came up drunk,
and dismissed young Garfield with a volley of oaths. An hom- later he had accepted from
another cousin an engagement to drive the mules which towed his canal-boat. After his
first " all round " voyage between Cleveland and Pittsburg, he was promoted to the post
of bowsman, and flattered himself that now at length he was beginning to learn some-
thing of navigation. General Garfield represented in Congress a district in the extreme
north-east of Ohio, which forms part of the " Western Reserve," so-called because it was
ceded in early days to the Connecticut Land Company, and settled by a chosen company
from New England, whose descendants have there reproduced the sober, reading,
thinking, praying life of the old Atlantic states. He succeeded at 28 years of age in the
representation of this community Joshua Giddings, who had been for nearly a quarter of
a century one of the leading statesmen of America.

ENGLISH PROVERBS.

Adversity tries friends.

What every one asks, what every one gives, but what very few take — advice.

Age before honesty. Two of a trade seldom agree.

Agree, for law is costly. All's well that ends well.

Almost was never hanged. Better be alone than in bad company.

Make the best of a bad bargain. A bargain is a bargain.

Bear and forbear. Beauty is but skin deep.

As you make your bed so you must lie on it.

Better be a beggar than a fool. Beggars must not be choosers.

A good beginning makes a good ending.

Good to begin well ; better to end well. Well begun is half done.

As the twig is bent the tree's inclined.

The better the day the better the deed. Birds of a feather flock together.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

The sharper the blast, the shorter 'twill last.

Who so blind as he that will not see ?

He that is born to be hanged can never be drowned. Boys will be boys.

Brevity is the soul of wit. A burnt child dreads the fire.

Better pay the butcher than the doctor.

You cannot eat your cake and have it. If the cap fit, wear it.

Be captain of your own ship. Care will kill a cat.

Take care of the pence, and the pounds will take care of themselves.

Like carrying coals to Newcastle. When the cat's away, the mice will play.

A cat may look at a king. Catch that catch may.

I'm too old a bird to be caught by chaff. Charity begins at home.

Count not your chickens before they are hatched.

Children and fools speak the truth. A chip of the old block.

Children should hear, see, and say nothing. As clear as mud.

Christmas comes but once a year, A close mouth catcheth no flies.

Every cloud hath a silver lining. Cut your coat according to your cloth.

Who goes worse shod than the cobbler's wife ? Much coin much care.

Two's company and three's none. Comparisons are odious.

Tell me what company you keep, and I will tell you who you are.

A contented mind is a continual feast. First creep and then go.

No cross, no crown. The crow thinks her own bird fairest.

Don't cry out before you're hurt. Great cry and little wool.

Custom is second nature. The danger's past, and God's forgotten.

As dead as a door-nail. Nothing is surer than death.

Out of debt, out of danger. Delays are dangerous.

Never venture out of your depth until you can swim.

Talk of the devil and he'll be sure to appear. Give the devil his due.

Never say die. After dinner sit awhile, after supper walk a mile.

An ounce of discretion is worth a pound of wit.

Do as you would be done by. Every dog has his day.

When one door shuts another opens.

A drowning man will catch at a straw. Enough is as good as a feast.

Early to bed, and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.

Don't put all your eggs into one basket.

Better an empty house than a bad tenant. Evil gotten, evil spent.

An Englishman's house is his castle. To err is human ; to forgive divine.

He that knows himself best, esteems himself least.

Everybody's business is nobody's business. Of two evils choose the lesser.

Every man for himself, and God for us all.

Let every tub stand on its own bottom. Extremes meet.

Her face was her fortune. Faint heart never won a fair lady.

THOMAS CARLYLE.

FIVE or six miles north of Annan is the village of Ecclefechan. Here it was on the
4th of December, 1795, that Thomas Carlyle was born. His father, James Carlyle,
who was a stone-mason, was a steady and prosperous man, though he had only three
months of regular education. His first wife dying a year after marriage, he took fur
his second wife Margaret Aitken. In 1806, when Thomas Carlyle was little more than
ten, his father took him to Annan School. The schoolmaster was Adam Hope, who had
also taught Edward Irving and Hugh Clapperton, the famous African explorer.
At fourteen, being intended for the ministry, he was sent to Edinburgh University,
but, however, he did not succeed in taking a degree, so, after spending seven years there,
he left the university and obtained by competition at Dumfries the post of mathematical
master in the Annan Academy. After leaving Annan, he was appointed mathematital
master to a school in Kirkcaldy. He taught there for two years, but becomin'^ weary of
the work, and having saved a little money, he left for Edinburgh, determined to devote
himself to literature. In 1823, he commenced his career by contributing to Brewster's
Encyclopaedia some able articles on "Montesquieu," "Montaigne," "Nelson," and the two
" Pitts," and literary notices to the new Edinburgh Review. In the same year ho com-
pleted a translation of Legendre's Geometry, to which he prefixed an essay on proportiuu;
and published his translation of " Wilhelm Meister," a work which showed a direction of
reading destined to influence materially his future career. After finishing this transla-
tion, he commenced "the Life of Schiller," which was published by instalments in the
London Magazine. For Goethe and Schiller Carlyle had the greatest admiration. Having
married in 1826 Jane Welsh, a former pupil of Edward Irving, he resided alternately
at Comely Bank and Craigenputtoch, a small estate 15 miles to the N. W. of Dumfries. In
this secluded spot he occasionally contributed to the foreign and other reviews of the
day. In 1830 he wrote "Sartor Resartus," and felt that in it he had struck at last
the true note of his life. In August, 1831, he came with this book to London to seek a
pubhsher, but without success, as it had been written in a style unknown in the trade.
In the year 1833 " Sartor Resartus " appeared in Frazer's Magazine. Next year Thomas
Carlyle and his wife left Craigenputtoch for London, and established themselves in 5
Cheyne Row, Chelsea, the house that was Carlyle's home for the rest of his life. His next
book was the " French Revolution," a history abounding in vivid and graphic descrii.tions.
In 1840 he delivered a series of lectures on "Heroes, Hero-worship, and the Heroic in
History." This work was full of the broadest sympathy for individual men who had
known themselves and the purpose of their lives, had worked with a will, and had risen
above the crowd of imitators who reproduce dead forms of life, and whom he called
" apes of the dead sea." His "Life of John Sterling" has been described as the finest bio-
graphy ever written. In 1845 he produced '' Oliver Cromwell's Letters and Speeches, with
Elucidations." This work gave him a distinguished place among the historians oi the age.
In 1858, 1862, and 1865 Carlyle published, by two volumes at a time, the six volumes of
his " History of Frederic the Great," a work by which he again allied himself to German
thought. He had been dravsoi towards Frederic by admiration of strong individual will. In
1865 Carlyle was elected Lord Rector of Edinburgh University, and delivered his inangurdl
address on April 2, 18t)6. A few days after this his wife died. She had been out for her
usual drive in Hyde Park, and was found dead in the brougham, sitting with her Imnds
on her lap. After her death Cai-lyle became more morose and sad than ever, and
occupied himself partly in looking after new and popular editions of his bo<'ks, the
sale of which had increased very nauch since his rect orial speech. He also collected the
letters and memorials of Mrs. Carlyle, and spent much time in this labour of Itive, while
he at the same time kept up his " Journal." Gradually he found himself standing, as it
were, a monument of the past — almost all his old friends had been called aw.^y. John
Wilson, author of the " Noctes," Lord Cockbum, Lady Ashburton, Lord Ashburton, Mrs.
Carlyle, John Stuart Mill, these and many more had gone from this earthly scene, leaving
him a sad, solitary old man. Still, he came of a tough and vigorous stock, and although
he in 1871 handed over to Froude his vrife's letters, etc., for publication after his death,
his time had not yet come. We may here say that although it is perhaps a pity when
biographies are published that the public should become aware of all the private quarrels and
petty grievances of those who are known to be our greatest men, still the very fact that
Carlyle gave these letters to the public reflects credit upon him. In most cases the rule
of saying nothing but good of the dead is held sacred, but in his case it showed what a
grand character he had, and how gi-eat his regard for truthfulness and straitforwardness
when he was not afraid of showing the world his worst points. The years rolled on
slowly. In 1878 his brother John died, and this was about the last link that bound him
to earth. His own health, though feeble, still continued moderately good. His mind
was as strong as ever, and he was entirely occupied with his approaching change. He
died on the 5th day of February, 1881, aged 86 years, and was buried in the old kirky.ird
at Ecclefechan. Dean Stanley offered his executors a grave for him in We.stiiiiu-ter
Abbey, but his own wish was that he should be buried by the side of his laciicr tiud
mother. Thus ended the Ufe '>f one of the truest and noblest men that Go'l ever
made— a life that had been devoted to an effort to do right and to be true in word
and deed.
