xpect to do anything without work, as well attempt to fly. No person ever regretted any scholarship he succeeded in obtaining. Alas! all of us are called to regret that we missed obtaining much that was within our reach. It is of incalculable importance to the student that he should be thorough in his studies. Such a habit commenced early will last through life. I have a sympathy with the young, and always wish them the best success. To Lord Morpeth, April 8:— Have you enjoyed Tennyson's In Memoriam ? It has charmed, touched, and exalted me. I have read very few poems in any language with equal delight. What a tribute of friendship! No one can read it without feeling how great a thing it is to have and to be a friend. The young Hallam is preserved in poetic amber. I have mourned with the father in his second loss. Two such sons are rarely given to a single father. To John Bigelow, June 6:— . . . Mr. Ticknor's book is a good dictionary of Spanish literature;

rdon:— Perhaps it will interest you to know how I have passed my last days in England,—thanks to that generous hospitality of which I have enjoyed so much. Here it is: Seven days in London at the British Museum; a day with the poet-laureate Tennyson at the Isle of Wight; The Duchess of Argyll wrote, July 23, 1863: Tennyson always remembers your visit with pleasure. two days with Lord Stanhope at Chevening Park, where I slept in the room which was occupied for three years by Lord Chatham;Tennyson always remembers your visit with pleasure. two days with Lord Stanhope at Chevening Park, where I slept in the room which was occupied for three years by Lord Chatham; one day at Argyll Lodge with the duke, where I met Gladstone; one day with Dr. Lushington at Ockham Park in Surrey; one day with my countryman Motley, the historian of the Dutch commonwealth, at Walton-on-Thames; one day with Lord Clarendon at the Grove; one day with Lord Spencer Born in 1835; twice lord lieutenant of Ireland.

The London Times, already strongly pro-slavery, condemned it; while antislavery journals, as the Daily News, the Morning Star, and the Morning Advertiser, as fully approved. The Duke and Duchess of Argyll approved it, the former not thinking it a bit too strong. The duchess reported Tennyson as warmly approving it, and saying, I thought the most eloquent thing in the speech was the unspoken thing,—the silence about his own story. Punch gave it a hearty assent, and Miss Martineau in public letters expressed her cordial sympathy with its scope and spirit. Miss Martineau's letters appeared in the New York Antislavery Standard.
