The London Worla, whioh is pub- lishing a series of pen -portraits of " Cel- ebrities at Home," devoted a recent paper to "Mark Twain at Hartford." It says : Among those American authors who, ?because they have had the courage to cut loose from the apron strings of Eng- land, have achieved the greatest suc- cess loth at home and abroad, Mark Twain -is, in point of popularity, facile princeps. Those who only know him as the anther of " Theinnocents Abroad" and " Roughing It" are apt to imagine he is a kind of frontier joker, of the typo with which Bret Harte has made us familiar. It may be that there is even yet a vague suspicion of this bent, al- though his external person certainly 'showe no trace of it. If you see him in his, charming home at Hartford, in the valley of the Connectieut, surrounded with every abject which taste and wealth can procure, you feel that such a conception has been erroneous. The TfiftlaSi011, With its quaint old English architecture and its exquisite tiles and mosaics, the rick ferneries and half - tropical hothouses, are no mere extran- eous accumulations Kith as any Mall of wealth might create, but a gradual and organic outgrowth of the owner's mind, which gives you a delightful peep into the inner recesses Of his character. The main building, as well as the stables, is built of darkredbrick with dark brown trimmings, interspersed with inlaid de- vices of scarlet -painted brick and. black Greek patterns in mosaic. The whole has a most novel and pleasing effect— nothing gaudy and glaring, but all ar- ranged with a rare artistic taste and a strict regard for harmony in colors and outlines. During., the summer the outer window -sills are draped with hanging ferns and bright nasturtiums, and the wood -work of the broad East Indian portico is half concealed beneath the foliage of clambering vines. But as winter: reigns supreme during a good many months of the year in _New Eng- land, Mark Twain has taken care to provide himself with summer vistas elven while nature does not afford them. His library, the place where the owner is most frequently to be found, opens into a miniature greenhouse, full of tall graceful ferns aud blooming tropical plants. In the midst of all these luxur- iant exotics a fountain is constantly playing, shedding—its -Spray over the smooth white rocks - at its base, and un- der the glass ceiling hangs a large ewe in which a pair of California quails of lyrilliant plumage spend a brief season of happy captivity. Mark Twain cannot endure to see any bird Or beast 'which nature intended for freedom imprisoned within the narrow bars of a Cage, and he bought these quails last winter from a boy, meaning to set them at liberty in a neighboring forest as soon as spring :•hould arrive. "In the pleasant_eity of Hartford he has gathered about him a delightful circle of friends,authors, business men and lawyers, ttP whom his hospitable doors are etways open. And he is, in- deed, the prince of entertainers. Sit- ting in his richly-fmnished library, to whose beauty andiartistic completeness half the lands of Europe have contrib- uted, he will tell an anecdote or discuss a literary or social question with n calm' directness or earnestness, revealing to you an entirely new side of his charac- ter, that has nothing in common with, that which he is wont to display to the public who throng to his lectures. Even his drollest stories lie relates with this s:ame earnest impressiveness, and. with a face as serious as a sexton's. His bril- liancy littS tt, certain delightful quality wllich is almost too evanescent to be - imprisoned in any one phrase. You have no oppressive consciousness that you are expected to laugh; you rather feel a,s if the talker had unexpectedly taken you into his confidence, and you fedl. yom: heart going out toward him in return. Throughout his house Mark Twain has indulged liberally his taste for wood tints and quaint carvings.

The raaritelpiec.e, with all its m •II 'oent_snper-structure, had once adorned an old' English or Scottish country -s at, and Mark TWain- wet's fortunate enou to pick it up .d.ur- ing one of his ra y sojourns ,in Eng- land.

In a Short time the doctor called on him, prescribed two bottles of cod liver oil, received his fee Of 48, and was told by the German, who disliked the size of the bills, that he need not corn again. The German, who had not l,eard the doctor's prescription very weilJ supposed that he could get the oil and, treat himself.
