M y Lady's Satchel

[By T X ]

Believing that my Lady was still staying j with Aunt Tib, I consoled myeelf last night, by writing to her, though p»n, ink, and pap r, are poor substitutes for lips, tongue, and speech, I wrote. ' I went alone last avening to hear Bishop Julias. It was a chance to improve my elocution, not to be lost. Besides, it- is always & plwsurn to' 3iiten to this full masculine voic, with its expreaaive inflections and distinct) nrHeu latiou. Distinct) to a fault., perhaps, for he nb-si-lute-ly i-so-latea his syl la-blca. The views were excellent, awakening, for' me, deathless memories. Oily,—l wanted more. I longed to see again even upon a f ereen, Ghriatohurch Cathedral, Oxford, ao aucient, so beautiful, I wanted a glimpse of Salis bury and Exeter, sod Winchester and Kiy, vait, vacant, mwive, mountain.like Eiy ! My dear girl, I look forward to the day

when you and I shall stand together under that wared roof. You have a soul—and are using iti.—(Do you remember what Carlyle •ays became of the people who had souls •.ttd would not cae them ?) You would feel the soul of these placet. Theie stately iftsaotuariei, where bearts have worshipped (or centuries, are not inanimate creations. And, us the aoul of the Living, if reoosjniaed, is more awe-inspiring thai* the soul of the Dead, ao, theie cathedrals touch and quell the spirit) in a way in which, no rain can— do mfciiter how beautiful aad sublime it may be. A ruin is bub a corpse, often a mere ■keletson, from which the soul has long since fled.

Comparing our ne*t) little Ohristohurch Cathedral with its anoeitors—itß ooat with theirs—nob in coin alone, but In skill, in pfttiesoe, in life, id labour, in love, one sighs, So maay of them are gifts. Hag the bleesiog of bestowing departed ? They were many in the hall last night, who were also on the racseeaum on Thund&y and Friday. Some of them will give a guinea towards the eathedial ; had they givea the sum they voluntarily put on the totaliaator, there would be no occasion for oar highest church dignitary to appear before them hat in hand, an attitude hardly in keeping with the size of the man and the affluence of the people to whom he appeals. I have, aa you know, fallen eft; times under the spell of more than one of Ihe cathedrals I saw in my drr&ms last night ; their attractive force magnetizes ! my hears, at thii distance of t-me and pincfi, bub the r extract vv force I never felb before. A beggar to beg is our bishop ! I was going . .1 had wribfcen thua far when the postman's knock made me fly to the door ; he put ini.o my hand, not a letter or a note, only a miserable postcard with this notification in pencil. "Left by the early train, so need not trouble you to go to the station.' Trouble indeed ! Trouble enough ! And after my having written a most carefuMy worded Explanation about that wretched doggrel ; and making an abj *ot apology for evrr having penned it. I said that Lhad always regarded Jeasy as a sister, that I had never thought her in the least pretty, that she did her hair simply atrociously, and what f'ifferenoe has it made ? A woman offended ! Taking ten cities is a mere pastime compared with waning her ! You as;k R >bert. I know wh eh he h»« found hardest. I think I'll try a masterly activit,.

Daring myreoenb boycotting, I've fcriedfco* console myself with the culture of fl jwers by the way our local Horticultural Sooiety ought to be enoouraged. A garden has a mosti civilizing influence upon men and families. Cultivate one

FARMERS AND LANDLORDS.

How Thby Qdarrkl And Litigate In

England

We reproduce the following from th c Mark Lane Kxpress for the light il throws on farm life in England. The British Argicultural press continually publishes the details of equabbles of this kind, which showß how carefully leases are made, and how " custom " steps in when the lease is silent, to determine the relative duti-s of lono'lord and tenant. The Englishman is a born litigant, and the farmers and landlords are continually in the court.=. The case *s stated in the lixpress is as fdlows:

The award of the arbitrator, Sir John Rolleston, PHI, appointed by the Board of Agricultural ia the case of Chislett v Wake, has been received, This was a dispute between the out-going tenant, John Gbislett of East Lodge farm, Court eenhai', and hie landlord, fcir Herewald Wake, Bart, as io compensation on the expiration of the tenantcy. The outgo ing tenant, Mr Chislett, claimed from his landlord a total gum of £199 14s made up as follows: Ons fourth o£ £467 3s Id the cost of the purchased cake con sumed on the farm daring the last two year?, £11(315s 9<J ; one eight of £562 13s 9d the cos;, of the purchased meals, feeding staffs and home grown corn,£7o 6s 8d o»e eighth of £60 15s the cost of purchased straw and clover, £7 Us lOd and the cost of paint for painting house, £4 19d91. 'J here was a counter claim on the part of Sir Herewald Wake for £1306 15s the items in this being: For not keeping occupation road in repair, £60 damage by carting overland, £10 ; repairs to fences and gates, £22 53 re pairs to house, £85 cost of opening out dr»iiis, £20 ; dilapidations at field hovel £10 injury to property by cutting down a row o? thorn treep, £100 cleaning out four ponds, £10 claim for overcropping during last years of tenancy 31|acres, one fourth of land under tillage should be roots at £5 per aero, £162 10s ; 32£ acres should be swedes or beans at £2 per acre, £65 ; 32^ acres should be wheat straw at £2 per acre, £65 estimated cost of cleaning fifty acres of land from weeds £100 tor breach of covenant to farm the land in the most modern and approved practice of good husbandry, £600 'Jhe arbitrator's awasd orders payment by Sir Herewald Wake to Mr Chislett of £182 4- 3d m»de up of £116 15s 9d(the amount claimcj) for proportion of cake consumed on ths,fann, and £65 8s 6d for proportion of other food stuffs. The a ward further orders payment by Mr Chiß lett to Sir Herewald Wake of £76, made of repairs to road £25 to fencing and gates £7 10s and to house and buildings £15,a-d compensation for bad cultiva tion £28 10s. The arbitrator orders that each party shall pay his own costs and one—half of the costs of the award.

It will be seen from the above that Mr Oh'slett recovers £182 4s 3 1 of £199 14s claimed, and Sir Herewald Wake r« J oyers £76 of £1309 15s claimed.

Under the distinguished patronage of His Majesty the King of Italy, as per communica tion made by the Minister for Foreigu Affairs through the Consul-General for Italy, at Melbourne, March 14, 1878. Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Clinics and Universities all over the Globe.

It is proved by testa by the Medical OH en of the Umversifckiß ac Bonn and Greifswald Prussia, and reported by Dr. Pchulz,Profess or of Parmaoology, at Bon, and Professor Dre Mossier, director t»f "the Medina! CUuiffß at Greifewald, that only prbduotß that are saturated with oxygen aid freed o! acids, reeinons and other Bubetances, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the Sanative qualities proper to Vhe ■ plaD,- AU crude oils, or bo callod Euoalypti Extractß are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpentine*, which. *re abandoned since aB an interna' medicament. These crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extraots, are discernible :—



1 By their deficiency in pungenb odour— which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract) develops most freely through its surplus oxygen. 2 By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear ance being reduced in specific) density through toe presence *»f acids. 6 By their taste, the result of thß contracting tendency of resin* and tennates. if these crude oils, so-c lied eucalypti extracts, are applied by miaba :e in cases of oroup, bronchitis, diphtheria, Internal BnfLama6ions, dysentpry, etc., the con sequences are most appalling.
