uglas Jerrold said, when extending his hand to a friend from whom he had been for some time separated by a misunderstanding,--an estrangement for which, said that noble friend, Charles Dickens, with generous tenderness, I was the one to blame. In 1851 Fanny Fern was born into literary life. Aessay was penned by the widowed mother, on whose heart lay a great burden of loving care. That care .was her inspiration, her desperate hope. Her muses were a couple of curly-haired little maidens, in se New World, took quick root in England, and spread and flourished like the American rhododendron. The mother country took fir British home consumption forty-eight thousand copies, and much good did they do our little cousins, I doubt not. In 1851 Ruth Hall (I had almost said Ruth-less Hall) was published. In 1857 Rose Clarke, a kindlier book. These are, I believe, the only novels of Fanny Fern. They were eagerly read, much commented upon, and had, like the Leaves, a large sale. They we

best schools in France. Thus she speaks English, Spanish, and French with equal fluency. There is no court in Europe where the claims of etiquette are more rigidly observed than in the royal palaces of Madrid. Eugenie, from childhood, has been so accustomed to all these forms, that she moves through the splendors of the Tuileries with ease and grace which charm every beholder. John Kirkpatrick, who had married Eugenie's aunt, Carlotta, became subsequently a banker in Paris. In the year 1851, Maria the Countess of Montijo, with her daughter Eugenie, the Countess of Theba, visited Paris. The marvellous loveliness of Eugenie, the ease, grace, and perfect polish of her address, and her vivacity and wide intelligence, surrounded her with admirers. The classical regularity of her features, her exquisitely moulded form, her rich, soft auburn hair, and her large, expressive black eyes, arrested the attention of every observer. Equally at home in several languages, and endowed with g

poet who had sung the heroism and suffering of the late war in strains of such power and pathos as those in which she sang the song of Italy. Her love for her adopted country was not a mere romantic attachment to its beauty and treasures of art and historic associations. It was a practical love for its men and women. She longed to see them elevated, and therefore she longed to see them free. Her affection for Italy found its first expression in Casa Guidi windows, which was published in 1851. This poem, says the preface, contains the impressions of the writer upon events in Tuscany of which she was a witness. . . .. It is a simple story of personal impressions whose only value is in the intensity with which they were received, as proving her warm affection for a beautiful and unfortunate country, and the sincerity with which they were related, as indicating her own good faith and freedom from partisanship. The poem consists of two parts, the former of which (written in

Jenny Lind, like Miss Kemble, met her destiny in America. Among the performers at her concerts was Mr. Otto Goldschmidt, a pianist and composer, whom she had formerly known in Germany, and with whom she had pursued her musical studies. Her friendship for this gentleman ripened into a warmer attachment, and ended in their marriage at Boston, in 1851. After residing some time at Northampton, in Massachusetts, they returned to Europe, where they have ever since resided. Occasionally, Madame Goldschmidt has appeared in public concerts, accompanied by her husband. She is now forty-seven years of age, and her voice is said to retain a considerable degree of its former brilliancy and power. Living, as she does, in great privacy, little is known of her way of life; but that little is honorable to her. Her charities, it is said, are still bo

With all this working he still found time for remodelling the science of geography and history; and the results of this painstaking to furnish herself suitable implements of her profession we had in Willard and Woodbridge's popular Geography in 1821, and Mrs. Willard's Temple of Time and Chronographer of Ancient History. This ingenious design received a medal at the World's Fair in 1851. The certificate of testimonial, signed by Prince Albert, was no empty tribute to the eminent author, but rather a tribute to the substantial contribution to our aids in learning and teaching what ought to be the most fascinating, yet what had notoriously become the most uninteresting, of all our studies. In entering upon her enlarged sphere of labors in Troy, Mrs. Willard found the gain of her preceding work. The young ladies whom she had taught, and who had caught something of the insp

Her Uncle Tom should have a history, of which his death-scene should be the logical consequence and culmination. As she mused the fire burned. The true starting-point was readily found, and gradually a most felicitous story-form was conceived, in which a picture of slavery as it is might be exhibited,--a web was laid, into which she might weave, with threads of gold and silver and purple, her brave designs. Uncle Tom began to be published in the National era, as a serial, in the summer of 1851, and was continued from week to week until its conclusion in March, 1852. It was not a product of leisure hours. She Wrought with a sad sincerity, and under most grievous burdens and disadvantages. Her health was delicate. Her cares were great. In charge of a large family, and compelled by the sternest of all necessities to make the most of very little and poor help in her household labors, much of this wonderful book was actually written by Mrs. Stowe, as she sat, with her portfo

d they disappeared as quietly and suddenly as they came. Who they were, whence they came, or whither going, we never knew. Caroline M. Severance In 1850 and 1851 several State Conventions were held in Indiana and Ohio. At the convention held at Indianapolis, the moving spirits were Frances D. Gage, and Caroline M. Severancthan policy, their guiding star---cannot appreciate the peculiar trials of those who are true in word and action to their enlightened conscientious opinions. In 1851, Mrs. Gage attended a Woman's Rights Convention, in Akron, Ohio, and was chosen president of the meeting. Her opening speech, on that occasion, is remarkable forhe reports of the first conventions, her whole soul responded to the new demand. Her earliest public work was in the temperance movement, where I first met her in 1851, although she had lectured on that subject, and formed temperance societies as early as 1848, while teaching in Canajoharie, N. Y. In the winter of this year, she

She also studied in 1850 and 1851 at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, in London. In the autumn of 1851 she returned, and commenced practice in New York city. Here again she experienced difficulties which only an indomitable will and the consciousness of a lofty aim enabled her to meet. With no such facilities from extended acquaintance and graduerhaps, such a witness of their manners), and vehemently protested. Unwilling to create disturbance, where her object had been entirely disinterested, she generously declined to avail herself of the long-coveted opportunity. The medical class of 1851, at Harvard, so unlike that of 1846, at Geneva, in the case of Miss Blackwell, gained for themselves an unenviable notoriety. In 1853 the Female Medical College, at Philadelphia, conferred upon Miss Hunt the honorary degree of M. D. She had well
