His image. as it rises there,is of smiling boyhood, or sedate and benignant maturity; always eLtkher joyous or serene, never passionate, or tu bulent, or dark. The pilgrim thinks oi him as a happy child at his lather's fireside; as a wondering school-boy in the quiet vener- able close of the old Guild Chapel, where still the only sound that breaks the silence is the chirp 01 birds or the creaking oi the church vane; as a handsome, dauntless youth. sporting by his beloved river or roaming through field and forest many miles about; as the bold, adventurous spirit, bent on , frolic and mischief, and not averse to danger. I leading,perhaps. the wild lads of his village in their poaching depredations on the park of 'Oharlecote; as the lover, strolling through the green lanes of Shottery. hand in hand with the darling of his first love, while round them the honeysuckle breathed out its fragrant heart upon the winds of night and overhead the moonlight, streaming through riits oi elm and poplar, fell on their pathway in showers of shimmering silver; and, last ‘0! all, as the illustrious poet, rooted and se- cure in his massive and shining lame, loved by many and venerated and mourned by all, lborne slowly through Stratiord churchyard, i while the golden bells were tolled in sorrow } and the mourning iimetrees dropped their ‘ blossoms on his bier. to the place of his eter- nal rest. Through all the scenes incidental to this experience the worshipperol Bhakspeare’s genius may follow him every step of the way. The old loot path across the fields to Bhottery remains unchanged. The wild flowers are blooming along its margin. The white blos- soms oi the chestnut hang over it. The green meadows through which it winds are thickly sprinkled with the gorgeous scarlet oi the poppy. The hamlet of Shottery is less thana mile from Stratlord, stepping west~ ward toward the sunset; and there, nestled beneath the elms and almost embcwered in vines and roses, stands the cottage in which Anne Hathaway was weed and won. It is even more antiquated in appearance than the cottage oi Bhakspeare, and more obviously a relic oi the distant past. It is built of wood and plaster, ribbed with massive timbers, crossed and visible all along its front, and covered with a roof of thatch. It ironts eastward, presenting its southern end to the road. Under its eaves. peeping through embrasnres cut in the thatch, are four tiny easements, round which the ivy twines. and the roses wave softly in the wind of June. The northern end of the structure is higher than the southern, and the old building, originally divided into two tenements, is now divided into three. In front of it is a straggling terrace and a large garden. There is a comfortable air 01 wild- laces. yet not of neglect. in all its appoint. ,ments and surroundings. The place is still ‘the abode oi labor and lowliness. Entering its parlor you see a stone floor. a wide fire- place, a broad, hospitable hearth, with cozy chimney-corners, and near this an old wooden settle. much decayed but still serviceable, on which Bhakspeare may often have sat, with Anne at his side.â€"Harper‘s Magazine.

On Colonel Forde’s estates. tor example, where the practice has existed of permit ting a portion of the rent to remain in arrest, the arrears are now being sudden- ly called in. This is being done at a period when prices for farm produce are particularly low, and it is causing great embarrassment amongst the tenants. The Cork Herald of April 5th seys :â€"" It is much to be regretted that, owing to the pest nnlsvorsble harvest in the districts of Melow, several farmers bsve been loblig ed to leave their holdings. Farms which would, a few years since. bring one thousand pounds, on be held at the present dsy for less then one-hell the sum. In this neighborhood with- in the past month. the interests in several farms was put to ‘ the hammer,’ and could not be disposed of. In the districts of Mellow, the lessee of seversl farms belonging to did- erent landlords have lately expired. and the nine of these lends have been left to e locsl srbltstor. who will decide between the tenentry end the landlords. One of these lsndlords, Sir. James Lawrence Cotter, some time no made considerable sbeternents to his tenents in their rents. The Ronen papers contain a thrilling re- count of a terrific struggle with a madman. A harness-maker named Poulain had long been subject to epileptic lite, which recently assumed a more violent form, and one night, just as he was about to sit down to dine with his wife and daughter, he was seized with a fit of raving madness. The wife rushed off to the Police Station for assistance, while the daughter took reiuge in the next house. Two policemen .and a butcher's assistant, named Boisson, soon arrived. The madman in the meantime had barricaded himself in his bed- room. The door was broken open. One of the policemen, named Strobe]. armed with s chair, made a dash at him, but the madman, who had a razor in his hand, slipped on one side, and dealt the policeman a heavy ltlow on the head with the razor. Btrobcl beat a retreat, and was courageously iollowed by the other policeman. Buiaaon was con- sequently left alone with the madman. A learlul combat took place between the two. The butcher’s assistant, although a powerful young man, was unable to cope with Pou- lain, who got him in his grasp, inflicted several terrible wounds on him. and would have killed him on the spot but for the timely arrival of some soldiers. The madman, as soon as he saw the soldiers, released Buiso son, and, alter gashing his own breast and arms with the razor. rushed shrieking and streaming with blood at them, but he was fortunately overpowered and was carried off to the asylum. The policeman Strobel and the butcher’s assistant are not expected to recover lrom their wounds.
