After dinner the thane s are that you avill find him tranquill smoking a Oigein be- fore the fire in the library, and ehatting leisurely -with sona friend, who addres- ses him plainly as "Mark," as his non de plume somehow persists in clinging to him both in his p 'vete and public re- lations. His real' name is Samuel L. Clemens. He is still a man in the prime of life, being now about forty-two' years old. His, rich and varied. -experi- ences irt the past as a western editor, kold-digger and pileit on the Mississippi, have stored. his brain with abundant raaterialitfor fatale works which have still to -be written.

An HID:111A Portrait of an .American Humorist: The London Work, which is pub- lishing a series of pen -portraits of "Cel- ebrities. at Home," devoted a recent aper to "Mark Twain at Hartford." It says:- " Amougthose American authors who, because they have had the courage to out loose from the apron strings of Eng- land., have achieved the. greatest sae; OesS .110th ta home and abroad,' Mark Twain is, in point of popularity, facile princeps. Those who only know him as the author of "The innocents Abroad" and -Roughing It" :axe, apt to imagine he is a, kind of frontier joker; of the type with which Bret Harte has made _its familiar. It may be that there is even ,yet a vague suspicion of this bent,. al- though Ilia external person certainly 'shows no trace of it. If you see him ie bus Obetanning home at Hartford, in, the valley of the Cannectiout, surrounded with every &hied which taste , and - wealth can procure, you feel that sucb eonception has been erroneous. Thea. mansion, with its quaint • English architecture and its ex uisit tiles and MOSLUCS, •the rick ferneries and half-, tropical hothouses, are no raete extran- eous accumulations euchsas any man of wealth might oroute„ but a gradual and organic outgrowth of the: owner's mind, which gives you a delightful peep into the inner recessesof his character. The main building, as well as the, stables, is -built of dark -red .brick with dark brawn trimmings, interspersed. with inlaid :de- : Vices a searlet-painted brick and blaek • Greek patterns in mosaic) - The whOle has a most novel and pleasing effect— nothing ,gandy al* glaring:, but all ar- rangecl with a rare artistic taste and n strict regard for haaraoey 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 eoucealedbeneath the - • foliage of clambering vines. But as winter reigns supreme dining a. good many months of the year in.. New Eng- land, Mark Twain has taken care to provide himself with summer vistas even 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 and blooming tropical. plants. In the midst of all these luxur- iant exoticsa fountain is constantly playing, shedding its sylray over the smooth white rocks at its base, and un- der the glass ceiling hangs a, large cage in which a pair ef California, .quailS of brilliant plumage Spend a brief season of happy captivity, Mark. Wwain cannot endure to see any bird. or beast which nature intended for freedoin imprisoned. within We 'narrow bars of at cage, and ha • bought these, quails last winter fr rh a • boy, meaning to set them atlibertjr in a neighboring forest •as soctu as spring should arrive. • sIii the pleasant city of. liartforc' he has gathered about liim a delightful , eirele of friends, authors, business men and lawyers, •to whom: his hOspitable doors are alwl' s open. And lie is -in- deed, the- priiice of • entertainers.. Sit- ting in his richly -furnished library, to whose beauty and.artistic completeness half the lands of Europe have contrib- uted, he will telt an anecdote or discuss a literary or social question with a calm directness or earnestness, revealing tp you an entirely JIM side of his charac- ter, that has nothing iu-common Nrith, that which he is wont to display to the , • Public who throng to his lectures. Even • his drollest stories he relates with this same earnest impresaiveaess, . and. - with a face as. serious as a sexton's.: His.bril- liaitcy has a certaiu delightful quality which is almost too evanescent to be imprisoned iu any one phrase. You ilas6 no oppressive conseiousness that you are expected to laugh ; you rather feel as if the talker hadunexpectedly taken you into his confidence,and you feel yourheart going out toward him in rettirn. Throughout his house Mark. Twain has indulged liberally his taste for wood tints_ and quaint carvings. Each of the doors in the library is sur - ening; .and the prevailing expression' seems to be resolute courage •and deter- mination. . His upper lip. is . covered with a thick brown moustache, and the broad territory of 1 is fOreh6adis- usually encroaehed upon by his brown curly hair. His eyes are email and keen, but are by no means lacking in -kindliness and humor. In his wholebearing there is a frank .cordiality which is very win- ning.- He is the father Of two beautiful little girls of whom -hesis very proud, and like. the amiable prime of tradition he takes much pleasure, ami4 the ser- ious business of his life, inplaying with these :two charming princesses.: His library and his 'conversation testify to the excellence of his literary taste. Mark. Twain. is a devoted admirer of Macaulay, and has a habit of ever re- turning to himwhen the lighter literary pabulum of the day begins to pall -upon his sense.. .The muck -abused. terin, professional humorist' can hardly ap- ply to Mark. Twain. He- is .ra her a constitutionai. humorist, becau e his mind is so fashideed that; in dealing with any subject whatever, the amor- ous point of iriew.first and most atur- ally presents itself to bim. For all that he is very careful not to - rush into publicity with a half-lorineda or half - perfected 'thought. • His after dinner speeches, which are proba,bly read by la larger number of men --and. -Women in America than. any public _document, the President's Message not exeepted, would. no doubt have been very good and very laughable even if they had been entirely. impromptu ;'birt the careful and critical revision to which he subjects them be - foe their public appearasice certainly refines their quality. . t` When Mark TNISain is not -Writing or making speeches,he smokes, and if he feels any further need. 61_ recreation he takes it in playi-Sg- billiards. • In the •third story of his house there is an .•ele- gantly appointed '!eillifiad-aoom, where he often spends an 'evening with three or four masculine friends.. Though he keeps handsome horses, housing them in a seperb stable, and may be seen daily driving through the . city with a fine pair of bays, . he is not much of a connoisseur of hoasellesh or a sports- man. "In politics he at first •impresses. you as an. indifferentist, with perhaps a lean- ing toward pessimism; but if you happen to toueh c.ert.a.in chords : which tever, fail to respond in an American bosom, you soon, discover that your' first im- pression was very remote from the truth. The fact is, like many another thoughtful man, .Mark Twain sees plainly the gravity of the present and future in the United States, and accord- Mg:1y has very little 'patience with the spread-eagleisna and. cheap declamations of contending politicians. Probably his politleal cteed is not. velar different from that . of the independents, a new and still unorganized party, which is daily growing among thc citiaens of the great republic." • Real Rural Story With a Moral. An agricultural 'friend sends us the following statement, which he assures us is based upo facts. We com- mend it to the careful considera- tion of all who own or have charge of swine: " A farmer bought, of me some pigs of a choice breed.,, paid a high price, and, after keeping them a year or two, arid breeding them, he mine to me ex- claiming : You remember that I bought some of the , breed of Pigs of you?' • s Yes," I replied "and 'how do you like 'ern ?" "Lie • 'em! Why, Pm disgusted with 'em—can't get 'em up to 300 lbs. at 18 mouths; and you said they would scale 680." " Comeaud. look at mine," said I, and he accompanied. m to my pen.. "Now," said he excitedly, "do you pretend to say that the pigs you sold inc are of this breed ?" • I do, the same Stock and. breed." "Why, you must take- me to be an ignoramus. Come' over and see - them, and you'll find' 'em as mean, rawboned, scrawny a lot of h lgs as you ever laid eyes on, and 1 shal, expect you to re- fund iny money.". " I went with hini and found his 1 ogs, in December, in a )en where the 4nuci was 18 inches de p, into which their feed, (corn in the ear) was thrown; and the only alielter they had, as a sleeping apartment, svas a taw poles _laid across *one end of the enclosure, over which a - few boards were Ilia. horizontally; -80 that the rains kept the swine drench,: - ed in wet weather Not a particle oft straw was given th3in as a bed, and I turned away wondering which had the most C01111110n sense, the hogs or their owner! s Neighbor," said I, "you ought to be indicted for emelt 7 to animals! -Can it be possible that von don't know any better than to treat year pigs in this way? In the first place they are half starved, as one -h iif the corn fed to them is lost in the inud, and the other half is eaten with so much filth that it barely keeps life Within them.. You should lay a plank Ifloor over th.e entire enclosuae ; then s,oa should build a warm - 'sleeping ipartment, with a shingle roof, and then feed your hogs on cooked food mostly, but never on corn in the ear.. Corn Meal may de but it pays well to cools it. Get a do, kettle that holds 4-om 40 to 60 gallons, set it in bricks and mortar in an 'out- house where there is a chinaiaey, or build. bile if you have none, and then -nix Indian meal -with potatoes, carrots, parsnips or beets, and -cook all together, giving the feed. warna , as ofteu as you can conveniently—sall the Y will eat to those Whoare fattening (the others keep separate), and. after following my acla vice a season, come to me and report the result." - " I did not happen to see this man till the next fadI,, at the State Fair, where I found hinal With a group of far- mers admiring scirae fine hogs that they -said ' had taken the first premium;' and they were fine; weighing over 600 ponnds each! • I "Whose are they?" I asked." "They are mine from stock I bought of you," replied xay neighbor, adding: "1 did as you directed, and I am. satisfied. now tbatl the pigs you sold me Were the pure re d, just as you re- presented." The moral of this result is, that it pays well to take eare of all animals, to provide comfortable -quarters for them, to give them plenty of straw for their beds, and to feed. them in a rational way.—T. i, AI., in Utica Ob- server. Lucy ebb. ,Aa cold friend an school -mate of Yrs. Hayes, has recently given us some very interesting reminispences of the Ameri- can President's Wife, when she was Lucy Webb, IS, school -girl and. young lady. She says She first knew Lucy Webb, at:the Wesleyan College, when she' was but 16 years old. She was quiet and shy, and possessed of no per- sonal bea,uty, aside from her beautiful hair and eyes. Er en at that age,- she from choice dressed plainly in sett sub- dued colors, with none but the simplest ornaments., She looked just what she was, a village maiden, but she was very studious, always received perfect marks for recitations, ankwas,held up by her teachers ; as an example for her fellow - pupils. She excelled in everything but writing compositions. Graduating with highest honors, MiSs Webb quickly de- veloped into a meat engaging and at- tractive young lad, and quite soon was married to Mr. Hayes a yonig lawyer with some promise,- but with his way still to make in the -world: As bride she were white satin gown, made plain with -very full single skirt reach- • ing to the slippers I cut low in the neck With half sleeves. Her shoulder's were covered -with white lacel and her arms and hands .with long gloves. A Veil of illusion fastened with orange blossoms fell to the floor, but only to the floor. This suit Mrs. ilayes has preserved, and wore it at her silver wedding a fort- night since. Of the groom this family friend says: "He was an honest leaking young 1118,11, and thought he might turn out well! His figure was very slight then as coinpared to now -; his • face? as ,studied more closely, was thoughtful and intelleetual; and his manners quiet, even to theextent of checking effusiveness in others. Even from my little aCqaaintance with him I had to admit that his was no stereo- typed character, His wife stood by him prodigal of her smiles,and.in,iblissful con- tent'. She was no tearful or sentimental bride; her eyes 'edited with a teaaless gaze into his, confident of being first the richest woman in the world." • Cured. by pog Liver Oil. A jolly Old Gerraan, while -suffering from a pulmonary attack, sent for a physician. In a short tirae the doctor .,called on him, prescribed two bottles of 'cod liver oil, regeiyed lais fee of 48, and Was Itold by the German, who disliked the size of the bills, that he need not come again. The German., who. had not heard the doctor's prescription very well supposed thathe could get the oil ancl treat himself. The doctor saw no more of the patient for seine time; but ne day, riding past the residence of the • arma,n, he was pleased to see him out in the garden diggi g lustily. The -Case seemed such a pro f of the virtue of cod liveg oil that he stoped. to make m.ore particular inquiries -about it. "You seem to be getting very well, saidihe„ addressing the German. ")a*, I ish weil," responded. the formerly pick man. " You took as much oil as I told. you ?" qteriecl the doctor. " 0 yah, I havensecl as many as four gallons of the dog liver oil!" " " The what?" said the astonished doctor. De dog liver oil, dat you say I shall ta,ke. I have killed most every fat little dog I could. catch, and de dog _liver oil have cured roe. It is -a great medicine, dat dog liver oil." , The doctor had, nothing to say, but rode rickly away." --The Investigator. , The Affecti?1 nate Gorilla. , 001. Tom Scott sat in the Grand Central Depot at :Timbuctoo, arguing with a Venerable gorilla on the neces- sity 'of extending the Cairo & Tina buctoo Railway through Sputh Africa at public expense. "It will; only cost one hund- red and fifty millions," said Tom; " and really, Mr. Gorillad you and your people are tod inuch out of the world." The venerable African listeneti with • the deepest respect to the utterance of the railroad magnate, and answered him thus: • "Wo don't neell the railroad, and can't afford to pay a hundred. and. fifty millions for lit; and besides, we gorillas travel on our muscle, uot by rail." "What do you suppose I'm liere for ?:" rejoiuod Col. Scott. The railroad. shall be built, if it takes the last ounce of gold -dust and the last gallon of palm - the country to pay for it. -That's , the sort of a toothpick 1 am.". Is that sv ?" softly responded the venerable gorilla, -rv-ho thereupon him, the said Scott, in Ins arms did enfold, • and ,to his heart passionately did press till the last breath had left Toin's body, which lag carefully laid in a convenient palace -Mil with the parting words, "Good by, •Tom: That's the •sort of gorilla :I am."
