LITERATURE. "EPITAPHIANA."' [In the Nonconformist.] Epitn.phs are the })i\radoxes of literature.. Nothing could be more curious than a. study of the varied feeli.ngs which prompt them - a record of the quaint, revengeful, humorous, rogretfnl mooda---of the hoJf.waggish, half-<lt'!spera.tc sorrow, and sometimes the whoUy grim joy, that slips into the1n, and preserves itse1f there. 'l'o joke over a grave seems the most inconsequent and irreverent of proceedings ; a.nd yet so strangely is man conatituted, that he ca.n, with almost better grace than anywhere els~, relieve his real feelings by a species of fun. The very best epitaphs arc smile-provoldng. It is as if l1uman gra·vity so long kept on the stra.in could nut survive it8 o'vn expres· sion, and smiled to catch sight of its oountennnco . At nll events, no places have been the depositories of more humor and oddity than churchyards. 'l'here is not one of any age 'vhich does not possess its group oJ curiosities. Perhaps seH·consciousness and egotism have their own share in the humor of churchyard literature. We all ren1ember how that, when Hugh Mil l1;:t tried to induce folks ~) employ him to cut grave-stone insci:iptious, by offering grn.tituitously to write epitaphs for them, as he fancied he could do it better than they could do it for themselves. the v~ry propos!\ol frightened away all po::!sible patrons, nnd he \\'ould soon have been at beggary hnd he not tlied something else. 1\1r. Fairley hai:> ma.de a very good collection, and \v-hnt is even more difficult, ha..ci written an interesting prefatory essay, in which he takes a. very inter esting view of modes of burial <unongst various nationfl. But t.Jrn bulk of readers will, w ·~ fear, notwithstanding, slip 01/Cl' it, \vith a mere glance, to the inscriptions tl1emselves . Thia on an avaricious tnan from Preston is tlX· ccllent :"At rmit beneath this churchynrd stone Li ea stingy J e1runy Wyatt, fle die<l one 1norui11g just at ten, and Saved a dinner by it." This gives anecdote and P-pitaph at once, and both a~e \Vorth quoting :11 So1ne yea.rs since a Mr. DickRon, who ·was Provost of Dundee, in Scotland, died, and by will left the sum of one guinea. to n. person to composo an epitaph on h im i whidi sum he dh-ected his thre c executors to pa.y.
