ABOUT THACKERAY

$omi Perionil Recollection! cf the Gani&l English Writer. $om Touchln Ancedotc of the Great MuvalUt and rhiloaopher At III Beut Among Iii Little Unea. Chicago Herald. I was a little girl of aboat seven yean of When I first recollect seeing Mr. Thackeray, "arrltea Henrietta Corkran In Temple Bar. "We lived then ia Paris, a mj father was lb l'aria correspondent of aeveral Ksglish rewspapera. My mother's evening recap tloni were very popular; her salon was the rendezvous where the artlaitlo and literary celebrities met In order to converse. Con venation was at that period almost a fine art; men and women enjoyed canserle, acd they knew how to talk. Anion the many interesting people who gathered roand my father and mother none made such a vivid Impression on my childish imagination as Thackeray. He is the central figure which stands oat in bold relief from the dim surround, jn-s. I can distinctly recall the bk white feead, the rosy lac and the. sweet, sonny Emile Which positively illnmineJ hjs countenance and made it almost beautiful X grew even to love the broad, broken noee and used to wonder how a boy, at any period, could have been so wildly audacious as to punch that featare. 1 wondered at the softness and gentleness of his voice and manner, and why so Kreut an author should care ta come amon us little children In such a simple, friendly wsy. He had a formidable appjarauce, leing over six feet high and broad lr proportion. We children were like pilgrims clustering around the knees of Urobdip;nR. Mr. Ihackeray was our favorite giant. Uut evidently he was not too 1 all or too great to take an interest in oar childish games. How often has he eat mnong tim, inquiring tenderly about my dolls. He remembered all their names End bad made out a gcrealCRical tree, so that every poupee has a distinct history of lier own. late one afternoon, after having told us delightful stories, Mr. Thackeray remarked that he roust leave at once, he was so terribly hunpry. We coaxed him to remain, and told htm that we really t ould give him a rood dinner. "There is nothing, my dears, ,vou can give me," he answered, with a fanny little high, "or 1 conld only eat tb choD of a Ihinoceros or a slice from n elephant." "Yes I tan'er.claimedmy three-year-old sister. We saw her ditappcar into a big cupboard. She emerged a few seconds after "with a look of triumph oa her fat little lace, holding in her hands a little wooden Tbinocerons and an elepa&nt from her Noah's ark, and putting the two animals on a plate, sbe banded them with grea gravity to Mr. Thackeray. Never can I iorget the look of delight on the great man's face; how he lanijbpd acd rubbed jbis hands with glee; and then, taking the child np in his arrui, kiting her, remark irg. "Ah, little rocue, you already kaow iLe value of a kiss!" Then he asked f jr a Knife and fork. sreecked his lip?, and pretended to dayour lhe elephant and rhtnocerous. Another time when Mr. Thackeray called We children were in bed. I was the only cue not asleep. I had been listening to bis pleasant voice, talking to my father and mother in the fsalon. when our bei room iloor wai cautiously opened, and in ji, arched Mr, Thackeiay, my mothsr following him, holding a candle. There wore three little iron beds in a row; 1 saw him iraihDg at us, and then putting Iiis hand jn Lis pocket, he nnrmured: "Now for the deetrlbution of medals," and chuckling, he deposited on each of our pillows a bright five franc piece, remarking: '"Precious little ones! they will think the faries .bare been here " One afternoon, as I was taking a walk tvith my father in the Champs K'yseei, we met Mr. Thackeray, and he stopped to iave a talk. Some public character was mentioned 1 forget who, but evidently some one Thackeray disliked, for he certainly poured forth a torrent of strong,

scathing words. I had never seen Mm before look angry or speak in a vexed mannr, fo I was rather frightened. While talkirjg I noticed that Mr. Thackeray's eyea wandered toward a poor, delicate weman, holding in her arms a little child. Me as leaning for support against tr.-e, and was evidently in great destitution. Without making any remark he walked up to the woman, ioonired into her condition, and on learning her troubles tlipied iuto her hand tcveral small silver pieces. Mr. Thackeray orten rna?e ns little on laugh heartily with his droll s'ories and ways, lie one day spied my crinoline, which was on a chair in the nursery; he examined it carefully and to my horror put his head through the aperture, and walked into the drawirg room with it j-onnd his neck, looking like Michael .Argelo's statue of Mo?es. "I a man ogre now! ' he exclaimed. 'Imagine, mv dears, that I bava a cropped red head, bine eyes and big lunnetts!" And forthwith he related to us wonderful adren tares, making us laugh and cry, just as he wished. A few years later we came to live in London; my father, through no fault of ills own, lost a lucrative appointment in Paris; it was a ptrlod of anxiety; my second Bieter fell dacgeroasly ill. Mr. Thackeray's goodiiess and kiodnees to us all were beyond words. He called nearly everyday at cur house In Trdstle Grove, himself bringing deli :acies of all sorts to tempt the aptetite of my invalid sister. Ills cook, who was a cordon-blood, ha 1 received orders to exert her cullmary powers to thentmo8t. and she made the most exquisite dishes and jellies. I remember a iiote from Thackeray to my mother, with the words "A Last Appeal," written in capital letters, beggine that the jallies rhould in lbe future be made with old aberry orthabest Madeira. The doctor had ordered cUret. One dy Thackeray came to our bonse carrying a TCg Cf bright, pleasant and coeerfal colors under his arm. which he himself laid down on the floor of my slster'a room, thinking it would tend to raise her spirits. "With children h was always delightful; with older or with unsympathetic people he could be eatiric&l, coid and cynical. He one day remarked to en acquaintance in my bearing that h-i only liked "secondrate books, second rate women, but firstrate wines." Mr. Thackeray had a talent for drawing, but be waa never Bitmfied with any of his v. cbieve ments. My father called upon him one morning and found him fretting over a drawing: of his owi. "Lock !" be said. ow O. (mentioning borne clever draughtsman) by a few touches, throwing some light or shadow here and then, would make this a picture. How it is, I know not, but I certainly canrot doit at IL" My father, who was fall of Intellect, vbich Thackeray fully appreciated, was a Sthy, dreamy, unobtrusive man, with a great deal of pride, and, perhaps, oversensitiveness. Ja his time of trouble, Thackeray was more than a brother to him. My mother told me that when he Heard for the first time of my father's pecuniary loss he was very agitated, and turning to my mother he asked her what jste Intended to oo. 'I mean to just the ravens," she retd.'d. An expression of pain flitted over the treat man's face, bnt after a few seconds of e Hence be put bis large band over her'a, avnd In a huky voloe said: "And so you xray. the ravens are kind friends." At a lu& dinner it happened that my

fathsr's name was mentioned. Thackeray, who bad been very silent, brightened up

and exclaimed: "When Corkraa dies he will go straight to heaven, and all the angels will turn oat and present arms to him1.' liut William Mafce)ace Thactceray was beckoned a way many years before my father was to join the great majority. His death made a blank which has never been filled up. Thackeray was not a character to be hit oiT with a few broad strokes, for there lay undernsath the ever-varying aartare a deep fountain of tendsrness, ever ready at the call of need and sabering. His hatred of humbngs and snobs was proverbial, but he loved all that was aim--pie and sincere. Among guihla, liappy children, Thack erry was at his best Whote f-et a-e gtilded through the land, hole i't anions his frlsndj Is tree, Who takes tu child ou hl. knoo Ami wluda their curls about hit band. lie plsymvlth threads, ho beat hlschal:? r r panllme, dreaming oi tbe skylit (euer Jay ran never die.

Among the victims of the great Chicago fire in isTl was a gentleman by the name of Hooker. He was a wealthy uerchant at the lime, but, like many others of bis clatt, was utterly rained by the great lira. After this calamity the family was supported by keeping boarders. Three or four years ago there came Into his family to board two handsome yonajt Swedes pohthtd, well educated, and apparently the postesiors of money, one called Siren ai.d the other O'.af. Mr. llocker's family I AmricAn. That makes no difference. The Swedish visitors were well pleaded Ith their boarding-house, and the reason for tbe genuine .satisfaction they displayed over the inciter will be better realized when it is told how they were both single gentlemen, and how in the Hooker household there was at lesst one unmarried danghter, a fresh, pretty vivacious young lady, who fitted about the halls and parlors like an angel, occasionally pausing to illuminate some dark corner with her bright smile. 'lhat bright .smile it was that haunted one cf the aflable yoan Swedes- young Olaf. The Swcdiih Rentlemen in the meantime did not seem to care to enc;ige in any regular bu&ir.eas occupation. They gave it out lhat they had come to America to study the manners, customs and language of the country. In the Jatter pursuit they were esjisted greatly by the Hookers, and especially by mat uaaehtcr of the household, Annette, w'ao, by her careful attention to O.'&f particularly, had him in i faw months so that he could spaak United states like a native. ZiOl courte, there could be only one sequel toa'l this mutuality of feeling, this kindly resard. It was announced that Annette and Olaf were engaged, and in the early fall of In." the twain were made one. Their wedding trip included a visit to Lske Minnetonka, where they stayed two weeks enjoying their honeymoon. From Minretonku; they returned to fChiieg'), and bidding an atlectionate fare veil to the eld folks set out for Olafs native land, whrre OJaf had proposed they shoild spetid the remainder of their days. Af'.er a brief stay in London, they sped across to Chridtiania. Much to her surprise tbe bride found an elegant equipsire iitted out with liveried driver and with footman e waiting them at the steamship dock, and V e heard her husband give some directive to tbe coachman by which she inferred that the tquipjiie'wü his ovu. She a: lud r.o questions. The pair were driven through the city into an aristocratio bubnrb, ornamented with the tine residences of wealthy people and with the grounds and ralaces of the nobility. When tbe most extensive and most magnificent of all tbe palaces was reached the coachmu wheeled bis steeds in upon the grounds. "Now," said Olaf, "we will alight; I want jou to come in and look over this pilace, end tee how the great of tbe land live." Annette gazed with awe upon the noble pile. At tint she exhibited shyness at the thought of going in and meeting the great people. Cut her husband finally induced I her to take a walk through its hall. When i they came out he asked her what she thought of It. The young bride expressed her admiration for what was really the iineet palace In the vicinity of the great City of Christiania. lie listened to the rsptnrous compliments that poured from her lips. "Annette," be said, slowly, "this is your future home. It wa afterwards explained to ber that ber husband was the Bon of a nobleman with a fortune of $1.1. 000.000. olaf and bis bride are now living happily together in tbe great palace in the suburbs of Christiania. Mariaette's Tragedy. Marqcettk, Mich., November 21 The first report that the Finn murder here Saturday evening was committed with an ax proves untrue. The crime was committed with a heavy iron tea-kettle filled with boiling water, which wassna'ched from the stove by the drunken husband. He knot ked hia wife down with it, severely scalding hlmtelf, and then pounded her head to ( lly with the Iron pot, scattering her blood and brains all over the miserable hovel. In his fary he broke tbe kettle into dozens of pieces upon her head. The sight when the house was visited by the jury was tickening, the poor woman having been pounded out of all resemblance to a human being. Finn is in jail and aüects ignorance of any tragedy. Ilia face is badly cut, and his arm in horrible ahaps, having been fairly cooked by tbe boiliag water. He manifested no emotion when the death of his wife was referred to before him lor the first time last night. The Parker-IIeecherEalogy bcand.il. New York, November 28. The Hon. Deacon 8. V. White has written a letter on the lr. Tarker-Beecher eulogy ecandal. Ha closes the letter as follows: "I hear that lr. Parker is engaged to preach on December 4 In Plymouth pulpit. If the fact is demonstrated before that time that Dr. Parker received a fee out of the receipts for tbat eulogy, 1 predict that Plymouth pulpit will, on that diy, be too hot to hold hlru, or at least that if he can endare the caloric of bis environment he will look oat on' a congregation to frigid that che contrast will euKgret the respective temperatures ot Dives and Lezsrus on a memorable occasion." The following dispatch from the English clergyman, dated from Chicago, was received by the Herald yesterday afternoon: "To deliver the eulogy at Brooklyn I paid for G.000 miles of travel, suspended my usual work in London for five weeks, paid for the supply of my pulpit during an absence of fi ve Sandays, and for the whole time, work and expense, I received neither more nor less than $700. "Josim Parker." The Fisheries Negotiation. WAsnisoTOK. November 23.

This ia the second formal meeting of the conference, and all the members were present, as well aa the two secretaries, Messrs. Moore and Borgne. The English representatives brought with them a number of olhcial documents. Among the publications on the subject of the fisheries that have recently come into the posalsson of the American negotiation is the Canadian book of dispatches, con taining correspondence batween the Canadian and English governments, which was, to a certain extent, unknown to the Department "of State, and ia expected to prove of T&Iue In the pending negotiations.

The cause of the blood v deed is at' tributed to Insanity. Mr. Penzell has been somewhat deranged for the past few months, but be was not considered dangerous until it was too late. A once happy home to the observer presents a picture of sorrow and desolation, with a once happy mother at the point of death, surrounded by five email children from fourteen to two years old.

Washington, November 17. The director of the mint has submitted to the Secretary cf tbe Treasury his annual report of the operations of the mints and assay offices for the fiscal year 1837. Tbe value of the gold and silver received at tbe mints and assay offices during the year was greater than in any previous year since 1881. The value of the gold deposited was $;S,223,72. In addition there were re-deposits of the value of $15,10.1,70. The value of tbe silver deposited and purchased was $17,750.018. In addition there were re-deposits of silver amounting to $l(; 113 O! the gold deposited $o- 073,027 was of domestic production, $-,2,5'Jl,32S of foreign gold bullion, $! 80,512 of foreign gold coin, $51G,OH4 of United States gold coin and $2,2J5,210 of old material. The coinage of the filial year WAS as follows: Gold, 3,724.720 pieces; value, $22,303, 270. Silver, 4I,231,2S piices; value, $34. 300 4s3 Minor coins, 50 1GG.W9 pieces ; value, $0-13.050.

CHARLES DICKENS, JR.

II Docs Not Have n ;Mnny lmi resaloaa ltoanrdlnsr Amour lilt 1'alt: . Now York Bun. The latest spark In the trail of genius which is iclntllating in America la Charles Dickens, Jr. He is rather a prolific spark be has eight children. Only one of the troupe accompanies him on his American tour. Mr. Dickens has been here several weeks, and to the writer it occored that ht might have his own lmpre-utons ot the country, that he might or m'ght not agree with his Illustrious sire. Ho the writer bunted for Mr. Dieken, ami ran him down In tbe parlor ot an op-town hotel. He is a wel!formed,hearty, esuy going looking fellow of about thirty eight, good six feet in height, with that peculiar old-country flethinena which is not our fatness, a roundlooking expression of the forehead, and head like bis father but that is all merry, untboughtful, after-dinner (looking eyes that look toward but not at yon, the way our men do ; a straight unaggressive nose, and a sandy mustache for which his hair is a darkermatch. He has all the air of a l, p leasant school boy, and that indescribable vacillating quality of manner whicti leaves you in doubt whether to expect rebuff or compliment in tbe coming sentence. Neither disturbs the even complaisance of his discourse, however, and yon come away wondering what led youtorxpect it. Ilia dressing has the effect ot the "best suit on" of the good school boy at last day exercises, neither tweed nor broadcloth, but an expression of both, and be acts as though he longed to put bis bands in his pockets, bnt knew better thsn to be caught at it. He is master of a Ecbool of politeness, particularly unAmerican, which makes gallantry and good manners duties based on principle, rather than pleasures called forth by the special charms of the particular person on whom they are bestowed. He does not anticipate mentally, but follows evilly, not ungracefully and very graciously. His observation of people, places and thlrgs, while quite extended, Is not at all critical. He visits many places without set ing them, and has no inducement to lead him to examine closely into details. Tbe principal objects of interest to him have been hotels, depots, and his audiences. If pressed closely as to the most needed improvements In anything he has seen, he would say: "1'ave the streets of New York, and seat people comfortably who travel through Ihera in public conveyances." I'nblis discomfort is keenly flt by foreigners, while private living is the equal of anything in the older countries. Mr. Dickens thinks that New York la very mcch like Faris, and that Boston has quite an Knelish air. American hotels he rinds exceedingly well managed, comfortpble, neat, prompt in service and well furnished, but Oh dear nn, they can't cook, one of them! I don't know what is the matter, whether it is the cooking or the seasoning, or the materials, but nothing tastes right. There's something wrong with it all it's bad, that's all that can be laid." Table etiquette he finds good, generally, except for the "beastly practice" of bringing on all kinds of viands, together, or so Dearly so that "a man sees the next while eating the last." He condems the indecent haste which meals are brought on and despatched, He regards a meal time as a period for leasurely, pleasant discourse, tasteful sequences of physical enjoyment and dainty attention to details of" taste and refinement; asocial service in which the dining room is the temple, the waiters reverent and etlicient priests, and the pirtasers respectful and decorous worshipers. Instead of that they are rude parentheses of action to be kicked Into and out of sight as hastily as possible as so much waste of time. - He finds excellent stage accommodations, comfortable halls, and well-furnished Itcture roc ms. The platform species of entertainment is much more of an institution SDd better provided for here than in England. 11 is much pleaded with his audiences as be finds them. They are decidedly less demonstrative than in European cities, but no less appreciative. He cays it is all bosh talking about American audiences and F.agllsh; that if placed before them without any previous knowledge he could not himself tell which was which. This is t-ffpecially true of all the large cities. He does not find in the looks of American men, women, and children tbose marked fii Iterances from English people which writers art wont to essert. He can not classify as to nationality. An intelligent, relincd woimn, or an intellectual manly man looks the same, whether on this or that side of the Atlantic Ocean. Inferior people look si tie world over. He regards people as humanity differing only In conditions. A Cordial Beoiptioo. New York Sun.

FIVE FRESH ANECDOTES. She Wnnted Another Name A Ceruinn M -Kolhltg Hotten iu Denmark. One day last week a lady student of Cornell Univerttity discovered that her name was incorrectly given in the list of students, and hastened to the registrar's olll:e to have the error corrected. "Are you engaged just now?" was the first question asked the registrar, in blissful ignorance of the lady's mission, and whose mind evidently was wandering in rnatrimjnlal chancels. "No, indeed," replied the gallant otlicial, with some little empha-is, his face at the same time becoming the very embodiment of pleasant anticipations of the approaching leap year. "Well, then. I should like to change my name," said the fair visitor. "Oh, you would!" gasped the young man, his countenance- radiant beyond all expression. And then the jcung lady undertook to explain matters more in detail, much to the discomtitare of tie assailant. The story got out, and row there is hilaMty in all the college circles. Doston Journal. Moritz (lotlieb Siphir, A Jewish journalist is resided as the formest wit and bumerist of tbe German ep?aklng people. A joung couple, newly engaged were favcred with a letter of introd action, which they duly presented. Now the gentleman wrs notorious for hia eOeminate habits and ways, and his appearance struck the eyes of the observant journalist, who had beard about him. lie said nothing, received tbe pair with empressment, incited npon their being seated in the most comfortable easy chairs, assured them how pleased he was to hear of their engagement, and wound up with: "Now, pray, you must, you really must, tell which of you is the bride." He once descrbed a theater as being so full that the people were oblige! to laUih perpsodicalirly ; there was no room to do so horizontally. Of a dull townlct he visited he rem irked that it was bo quiet that but for au oceanionel death there would really be no lUe in the place. Londjn Spectator. A curious toll gate incident hippened ntar Farmersville, in Canada, the other day. A party in a carriage Kad been detained for some time by a hayrack blocking the wav. After it passed the gatekeeper explained as follows: "I'll tell you why that man was so long here. You see, this morniDg he went past with a load of bay so large it would not go through the gate. To help him out of trouble my husDand and myself got rails from the fence and fixed up the side of the road so be could drive around the gate, and be got by without unloading. When he came bick just now ne ref ased to pay more than one way, as he said he had only gone through the gate once. What do you think of that ?'- Boston Journal. A story strikingly illustrating the feeling of saiety experienced by theCzir when In Denmark is going the rounds of Copenhagen. The other day his Majesty was about to pay a visit to the capttol, and instructed his valet to put a few necessaries in a dressing bag to tako with him. While the servant waa thus engaged the Czar happened to enter the room, and, Feeing his man place two loaded revolvers in the bag. exclaimed, with a smile: Obi, you may leave those out! We are in Daauaark now!" -New York World. Bishop Fotter is credited with the following joke: A young clergyman, not far from Harlem, being on toe eve of marriage, and not wishing to trouble any of bis clerical brethren, wrote to the Bishop, irquiricg if, as he had already published the bans from his own pulpit, he could marry himself. The Bishop at once capped the query with another: "Could you bury yoursell?" That settled it. Hand Amputated. Frakklin, November 23. Special. Louis Clark, an employe in McDaniel brothers' flour mjll of this city, had his bard so badly crushed to-day by a corn buller that amputation was necssry, Tbe entire band from tbe wrist down was caught in the rollers, and the bones, sinews and tensors were masbed into pulp. Dr. P. W. I'ayne was called in, who decided that nothing but amputation would avail, n waa assisted in the operation by Dra. Ott, Jonesand Wood. Mr. Clark ia from Brcckljn, Morgan coanly, where he la well known.
