THE MAN 0' AIRLIE.

Oh, there aboon you heather hill, Where footfa' oomeß but rarely, There is a house they point at still, Where dwelt the taah 0' Airhe. He wore a ooat 0' hodden gray, , His hand was hard wi' labour, r But still be had a hamely way O 1 standing by his neighbor.

His burly laugh made men rejoice, His words the neighbors guided; The little bairnies loved his voioo, 1 Arid in Ilia smile oonflded; The worda to-day that left his lip Became a deed to-morrow; ' Hoot, man, the friendship 0' his grip ; Would lift the heart 0' sorrow.,

H« was i»' load, he/waß na' proud, Halaflked in learnin'sairly,.. ■ And wt ye'd piok him Irae a, orowd, The honeßt man o' Airha, -Hia wealth i* waß na* in his land, — Itwaana'intheoity: A mint o' honour was bin hand, His haart a mine o' pity.

. He's dead ana gane, U.is prraoe o' Fife, - Mate i" his burly laughter; ; But, ah t the musio of his life, .That bideß with ua long aitee. 3Bb memory KVee," the man may die, ' That lingerai bright and Iquin, Juat like a star lost ftae the sky, i 1 ?^«* *' w"iKthi'~Ti. H*t>.,::

THE LATE MRS FITZ GEORGE.

London, January 19 and 20

The Duke of Teck, Lord Wolseley, and thousands of others, attended the funeral oi Mrs Fitz-George, late wife of the Duke of Cambridge.

THE LATE LORD NAPIER.

In accordance with the wish of her Majesty the QueeD, the remains of Lord Napier will be buried between the tombs of Wellington and Nelson in the crypt of St Paul's. The Emperor William of Germany has written to the Queen sympathising with her and the Army upon the loss of the deceased soldier.

PROBLEMS OF GREATER BRITAIN.

SIR C. DILKE'S NEW BOOKi.

(PER FBESB ASSOCIATION.)

LondoKj Jannaiy 19 Sir C. Dilke's book, entitled "Pro blems of Greater Britain," is published. The author eulogises Chief Justice Higginbotham, Messrs Service, Gillies, aud Deacon, of Victoria. The last named he thinks is sure to become Premier of Victoria, and probably of Australia. New South Wales, in Sir C Dilke's opinion, is certain to increase her Customs tariff sooner or later. Property and coal are also indicated as the direction in which extra taxation will be levied. Sir H. Parkes is des cribed as a prodigy, and Mr Bernard Wise, ex-Minister of Justice, as a man of the future. Lord Carrington has shown himself singularly independent .of the Colonial Office, and ' evidently shares the views of Sir Henry Parkes and Mr T)ibbs as to the ultimate separation of Australia from the Mother Country. Sir Chas. Dilke thinks the prosperity of South Australia is assured, arid advocates the claims of Western Australia for responsible government being conceded in full. The Wake field, system of colonisation, might be applied to /that country with good re sults. The vetoing of the New South Wales Divorce Bill is condemned.. Mr Higginbotham would be chosen Gover nor of Victoria if the dignity were made elective, David Syme, of the Mel bourne " Age," is denominated' the apostle of protection in the colonies, the forerunner of Henry George's doctrine that the State ought to be sole landlord. Sir Henry Parkes' financial embarrassment and consequent raffling of his effects will only increase the dumber'of his admirers, and no twit h standing his debts and his trashy poetical effusions, his enemies will find themselves powerless to sink him.
