Steam Saw Mills, MeX lb AUGUST 29 1879. Anecdotes of Thackeray. one morning Thackeray knocked. at Lha door of "Horace Mayhew's oham- bers,in Regent street, crying from with - tui "'It's no use, Harry Mayhem wen the door." On entering, he said e eerfully, "Well, young gentleman you'll &emit an old fogy." When leav- ipg, with his hat in his hand, he re- marked: 'By -the -bye ! how stupid I—I was going away without doing part, of the business of my visit. You spoke the other day of poor George Some- ody=—most unaccountably has' re turned me a five -pound note I ent him along time ago. I didn't expect it. So jest hand it to George, and tell him when his pocket will bear -it. to pass it ©n to some poor fellow of his acquaint ante. By -by." And he was gone. One of his last acts on leaving Ameri- ca; after a lecturing tour was to return twenty-five per cent. of the proceeds of ose'of his lectures to a young specula- tor who had been a loser by the bar- gain. While known to hand a gold piece to a waiter with the remark "My friend, will you do me the favor to accept a sovereign ?" he has also been known to say to a visitor who had prof- fered a -card, "Don't leave this bit of paper; it has cost you two cents, and will be;just es good for your next call." Evidently aware that . money when properly used is a wonderful health. 're- storer, le was found by a friend, who bad entered his bed -room in Paris, gravely placing some napoleons in a pill -box, on the lid of which was -writ- ten : "One to be taken occasionally." When asked to explain, it came out that these !strange pills were for an old person who said she was very ill and in 'stress, and so he had concluded that this was the medicine wanted. Dr. Thackeray," he remarked, intends to leave it with her himself. Let us walk out together." To a young literary man, afterward his amanuensis, he wrote thus, on hearing that a loss had. befal- len him : "I ane sincerely sorry to hear of your position, and send, the little contribution which came so opportune- ly from another friend whom I was enabled once to help. When you are well-to-do again, I know you will pay it back ; and I dare say somebody else will want the money, which .is mean - *bile most heartily at your service." It is interesting to remark the senti- ments be entertained toward- his great rival, Charles Dickens. Although the latter was more popular as a novelist than he could ever expect to become, he expressed himself in unmistakable tenets regarding -him. When the con- versation turned that way he would re- mark : " Dickens is making ten thou- sand a year. He is very angry at me for saying so; but I will say it, for it is true. He doesn't like me. He knows that my books are a protest against his —that if the one set are true, the other roust be false-. But Pickwick is an ex- ception ; it is a capital book. It is like a glass of good English ale." When Dombsyand Son appeared in the familiar paper cover, No. V. contained the episode of the death of little Paul. Thee keray ap- peared much moved on reading it over, and putting No. V. in his pocket, has- tened with it to the editDr's room in Punch office. - Dashing it down, on the table in the presence of Mark Lemon, he exclaimed : "There's no writing against such power as this ; one has no chanos. Read that chapter describing young. Paul's death. - It is unsurpassed —it is stupendous !" When Vanity Fair was at its beat, and being pub- lished in monthly parts, with a circu lation of six thousand a month, Thackeray would. remark: "Ah, they talk to me of popularity, with a sale of little more than one-half of ten thou..' sand. Why, look at that lucky fellow Dickens, with Heaven knows how, many - readers, and certainly not less than thirty thousand buyers." In a conversation with his secretary previous to his American trip, he inti- mated his intention of starting a maga- zine or journal on his return, to be is- sued in his own name. This scheme eventually took shape, and the result - was the now well known Cornhill Maga- zine. This magazine proved a great success, the sale of the first number be- ing one hundred and ten thousand copies. On reading a contribution by his young daughter to the Cornhill, he felt much moved, remarking to a friend : " When I read it I blubbered like a child; it is'so good, so simple, and so honest ; and my little -girl wrote it— every word of it." When a young man in Paris he married, and after enjoying - domes- tic happinees for several years his wife caught a fever, from which she never afterss and sufficiently _ recovered to be able to be with her husband and children. She was henceforth intrust- ed to the care of a kind family, where every comfort and attention was secur- ed for her. - In dictating to his amanuensis during the composition of the lectures on the "Four Georges," he would light a ci- gar, pace the room for a few minutes, and then resume his work with in- creased cheerfulness, changing his posi- tion very frequently, so than he was sometimes sitting, stauding, walking, or lying about. His enunciation was al- ways clear and distinct, and his words and thoughts were so well weighed that the progress of writing was but sel- dom checked. He dictated -with calm deliberation, and showed no risible feel- ing when he had made a humorous point. Hie whole literary career was one of unremitting industr=y ; he wrote slowly, and, like George Eliot, gave forthhis thoughts in such perfect form that he rarely required to retouch his work. His handwriting wee neat and plain, often very minute, which led to the remark that if all trades failed, he 'could earn - sixpences by writing the Lord's Prayer and the Creed in the sine of - one. Unlike many men -of less talent, he looked upon caligraphy as one of the fine arts. When at the height of his faire he was satisfied when he wrote six pages a day, generally working during the day, seldom at night. An idea which would only - be slightly developed in same of his bhorter stories ire treasured up and expanded in some of his- larger works. The personal appearance of Thack- eray has . been frequently described. His nose, through an early accident, was misshapen ; it was broad at the bridge, and stubby at the end. He was near-sighted, and his hair at forty was already gray, but massy and abundant.; his keen and kindly eyes twinkled some- times through and sometimes over his spectacles. A friend remarked that what he "should call the predominant expression of the countenance was courage—a readiness to face the world on its own terms. Jnlike -Dickens, he took no regular walking exercise, and being regardless of tie laws of health, suffered in consequence. .In reply to ,one who asked him if lie had ever re- ceived the best medioal advice, his reply was : "What: is the use of advice if you don't follow it ? They tell 'me not to drink, and I do drink. - They tell me not to smoke, and I do smoke. They tell me not to eat, and I do eat. In short, I do, every thing. that I am .de- sired not to do ; and therefore what am I to expect ?" And so one morning he was found lying, like Dr: Chalmers, in the sleep of death, with his arms be- neath his head, Sifter one of his violent attacks of illness, to be mourned by his mother and daughters, who formed his household, and by a wider public' be- yond, which had learned to love him through his admirable works. Harper's Weekly. How Brother Blank Destroyed His Usefulness. A deacon of a prominent Connecticut church, whose pastor had just recently resigned, recently met a Hartford di- vine, when the 'following conversation ensued " I was sorry -to hear - that Brother Blank had resigned. I have always liked him. He is regarded as a very able man, isn't he ?" "'W -e-1-1, y -e -s (hesitating). "Oh yes, he's an able man." • " But he's a first-rate preacher, isn't he?" " W -e-1-1, y -e -s; he's a very good preacher." And he is a man of - the highest Christian character; so we have always thought. here." " We -ll, ye -es. . Oh, yes, he's a good Christian." " But there must be something the matter, Deacon 2 Why do you hesitate so, and say, ` We -Il, ye es?' Has Brother Blank been guilty of anything wrong ? I know of a church that I think he is just the man for, and I mean to recommend l im very highly, Have you any reason to suppose that he would not give satisfaction ?" - ' " Well, Doctor, Mr. Blank is all yon say about him, but I'm afraid he's not calculated to make a successful pastor in the country." " Why not, Deacon ? You surprise me very much." " Well, I will tell you one reason. Mr. Blank lived next to a neighbor whose hens and chickens troubled him very much by digging up his garden. He spoke about it several times, but it, did no good ; those fowls kept in his garden all the time. And what do you think he did ? Instead of shoot- ing some of them or building a high fence around his garden, he came here to Hartford and bought the best game- cock he could find, took him home and turned him loose in the garden. The next day that neighbor heard a great commotion among the poultry, and when he looked over the fence there were all his hens and chickens lying in windrows, and the game -cock walking over the bodies and crowing. Now, you can't say that that was un -Chris- tian conduet, but it was certainly calcu- lated to detroy Mr. Blank's usefulness in that section. Modest " Gem'len an' Brud= dere." - The very first letter opened, by the secretary of the Lime Kiln Club as he turned to his desk cis used a grand. flut- ter of excitement in the hall. It con- tained a communis f tion from the presi- dent of a well knoa-e college conferring eupon Brother Gardner the title LL.D., and upon Sir Isaac Walpole that of A.B. "Fo' de Lewd, but jiss Essen to dat !" yelled Trustee Pullback, as he rose up and swung his hat. There was a grand yell from every. member present, and during the excite- ment Samuel Shin managed to get: his work in on the stovepipe, knocking it down for the fifth time this summer. When the excitement somewhat sub- sided the president arose and said : " Gem'len, I am tookeu by surprise. Had a pocketbook wid fifty dollars in it dropped frew de roof, de cold chills couldn't creep up my back any faster. But, surprised or prepar'd dar am but one course to take. I shell decline de title." A groan of anguish resbunded.through the hall. "Gem'len, you forgit dat titles am only worn on de sleeve," continued the president. " We hev seen jndges put off de bench for corrupshun. We know Aldermen who kin be bought for money. Doctors of divinity hev stolen horses, and bachelors of art hev robbed smoke- houses. I has tried hard to win de title of an honest, hard-workin'- man, who kin behave like a gem'lan at -all times an' in all places, an' dat's title 'Huff fur me. I_ am pleased at de compliment, an' I am pleased to lee de club take it as an honor, but I must firmly decline to lengthen out my name." "Gem'len an' brudders," began Sir Isaac as he rose up. "I am an ole man. Ise gittin' so tremblin' au' feeble dat I can hardly walk about, an' I know dat de time am not fur ahead when dey shell h'ar my knock at Heaven's gate. I hev tried to do right by all, an' dat feelin' am worf a fousand times more to me dan all de titles all de colleges in the land kin kiver me up wid. Tell 'ern dey hev my thanks, but dey kin tie de title to somebody who needs it afore he kin git trusted at de grocery."—De- troit Free Press. A Cute Policeman. The New York police are remarkable for the facility with which they adopt theories, and this one of affection and matrimony being incompatible meets with their approval. Consequently, when on a certain evening a Central Perk policeman saw 'a young looking couple wandering through the arbors of wisteria and the willow groves, appar- ently in confidential conversation, he kept his eagle eye upon them. - Soon he saw a manly arm steal around a slender waist, a little later a feminine head bowed down upon a masculine shoulder, and next—cold chills be- numbed the circulation of the guardian of the peace—two mouths made "red cherries on a stalk." Rudely - and wrathfully did the goblin in gray de- scend upon the touching tableau, and - walked the dramatis personae off to the station house. In vain the woman wept, and the man swore by all that was holy that they were husband and wife, and there "wasna wrang . in kissin'." They were told.to keep that "taffy" to themselves, and not try and cheat policemen. Be.th the people • • THE HURON EXPOSITOR. 3 were well dressed.. and well appearing, The lady seemed terribly mortified, and at,last, after long arguing, the, gentle- man succeeded in getting permission to telegraph his, friends.. This the officer said would cdst 32-20 cents - for mes- sage and the remainder to suppress the matter in the newspapers. The couple spent the night in the station. Early in the morning their friends came to the rescue, and they were found to be highly respectable people — Mr. and Mrs. Cottier. The judge at once or, dered their release, and offered, if they would bring a suit against the man, to testify in their behalf. When asked why he supposed them to be unmarried, the policeman gloomily responded that he had never seen a marriedcouple kiss each other in. the park before. - A Sharp 'Boy. The -other day a sharp looking youth walked up quickly to the counter of the . post office in a country town, and emp- tying a beg of coppers thereon, asked the clerk, who was attending to other customers, for a dollar's worth of one Dent stamps. - "Oh, you be bothered 7" was the an- swer. •`That's -not a_legal tender; it is- ta.11ll_copper." - - "What is a legal tender, then?" asked the boy. . " Why, one cent is a legal tender for a one -cent stamp," " Oh !" exclaimed the youth, "is it Come on then," passing a coin from the heap; "a one -cent stamp, please." The clerk gave him one. "Another, please." A second was given him. "Ano—" "Here, stop that," the ` clerk said. "Give me the money. It will be the shortest way toget rid of you." After counting the money, he gave the value thereof in stamps to the lad, who was heard to mutter: "I thought, I would tire him out.", A Modest Conductor. A few nights ago Conductor Verill, of the Virginia and Truckee express train, was going through his car when; he noti-ced'a lady asleep in her seat.. Her head was resting on the window sill and her feet extended to the aisle. Her dress was so badly disarranged that `her ancle and a goodly portion of an ex- quisitely fashioned calf were plainly vis- ible, and a number of men a few seats further down were contemplating the scene with evident satisfaction. Mr. Verily, who always keeps things pretty straight on his train, noticed this, and'. tapping the woman on the shoulder awoke her. " Madame, excuse me for disturbing you, but your dress is so disarranged that your ankle is exposed." " Oh, that makes no difference, sir," replied the lady, smiling sweetly, " it's nothing but cork." . A Hint to Grumblers. "What a noisy world this is !" croak- ed an old frog, as he squatted on the margin of a pool. "Do you hear those • geese, how they scream and hiss ? What do they do it for?" "Oh, just to amuse themselves," answered a little field mouse. "Presently we shall have the owls hooting ; what is that for?" "It's the music they like the best," said the mouse. "Ani those grasshop- pers, they can't go borne without grind- ing and chirping ; why do they do that ?" Oh, they're so happy they can't help it," said the mouse. "You find excuses for all ; I believe you don't un- derstand music, so you like the hideous noises." "Well, friend, to be honest with you," said the mouse, "I don't greatly admire any of them ; but they are all sweet in my ears, compared with the constant croaking of a frog." A Curious Household Pet. Tom Jackson, of this city, has a trained horned toad, which is quite a curiosity. It is as tame as a kitten, and in a-quiet''way is full of fun. Mrs. Jackson has trained the little fellow to stand erect on, his hind feet, to stand on his head, steadying himself with his forepaws—to-turn over on his back and sham death, and to do a number of similar tricks. The ti ad is fed on flies and similar insects, but it is also very fond of milk, which it drinks from a spoon. Although always called a horned toad 'or• horned frog in this country, the Tittle beast is a lizard. Naturalists call it an iguanian lizard of the genus phrynosoma. Our mountain- eers, who are often quite as close ob- servers of every living thing met with in the wilds as any naturalist, speak of. a thing characteristic of the horned toad that we have never seen mention- ed by any of the scientists. It is that when the female is teased by a dog: -it ejects two small streams or slender threads of blood—at least a red liquid • resembling blood. The liquid is spurt- ed to the distance of nearly two feet and with considerable force. This liquid is evidently provided the little animal as a means of defence against foxes, wolves and such animals, and whatever may be its nature it renders a dog very sick. One dose of it satisfies bis curiosity.— Virginia City (Nev.) En- terprise. Great Western _Railway. Trains leave Brussels as under: GOING NORTH. Mixed 10:25 A. M &acorn... ....9:08 P. M.
