M . . irsns-DOUGLAS
is the celebrity artistically
liinned by a kindly pen in
this week's “At Home ”
of the U'orld :-
“You pause for an
instant to admire the
beauties of this sylvun
stronghold of orthodox
Conservatism, when you
suddenly espy amidst the
trees the stalwart form
of the Patronage Seem
tary to the Treasury, who
has been making the most
of the last free morning
he will enjoy for months,
and is now trudging sor-
rowfully homewurds from
his farewell shooting in
Oxley W'ood. Mr. Akcrs-
Douglzts is clad in ii scr-
viceable suit of homespun,
' ii corduroy waist-
coat, the roughest of
wars stockings and
the sloutest of boots. end
he greets you checrily as
you come up in o
the borders of a lake sacred to the breeding of black swans,
wild fowl, and the ruddy sheldrske, and from which the
Stour ilows eastvrsni towards the sea, to form the Isle of
hanet.”
I mentioned last week that Dr. Bridge, the wc-ll-known
organist of “festzninster Abbey, had composed a Jubilee
anthem, and that it was extremely probable that the Queen
‘ mnmnd. a reci I: work at Osborne or
Abbey choir went down to Osborne on ,1":-iday, and after A
luncheon, under the supervision of genial Sir J olin Cowell,
they proceeded to the new private chapel in ‘the Palace;
and the Queen came in sliortl afterwards, with Princess
lleetrice, and accompanied iy Lady Amptliill, Lady
Ponsonby, Lady Gordon. Canon 1’rothcro and Mrs. Pmtlicm,
am 1 ' oe llrumniond, and Phipps. The words
of Dr. Bridge’s new anthem are taken from the text oi‘ the
nnon which was preached by the Archbishop (Druinm-ind)
of York at the coronation of (lcni-go III. in “'cstniuis(ei-
Abbey. It is B. bright and most etfcetive composition, and
not too long.
Dr. Bridge was then presented by Canon Protlicro to her
Majesty,who expressed her entire satisfaction with the new

The Duke of Sutherland seems to have been cnjo ing “ a

A correspondent writes :-
“ There was ll pmragrspli in the Pall Jlall Gazaur. X‘(‘f2l‘n1.ly
on authors’ gziins, in which tliice slatoiiiciits occur which I
know to be incorrect; and, as the subject is pcriiinncntly
important and interestiiig, it is as vicll that no inist.-ilaes
should occur in the tlgures which are published :-
“ (1) Thnekern said ‘ that he had never‘ made more than
5000 for any oiyhis books.’ Thackeray told B friend of
mine, at the Athcnu:-um, a few weeks before his deatli. that
he had never been pnicl IIS much as $5000 for uny book of
his, nnd that the bulk of the money he h.-id mode was the
result of his leCLlll‘(‘S.
“ (2) Dickens ‘is supposed to have I-lenred LlO,()00 a year‘
during the publication of “ Nicholas Xickleby." ’ I)lL'li(‘llNl
never made the half of $10,000 a. year by his writings, and
this error undoubtedly originniu in 'l'ail1‘ourd’s l’(1II:ll'l( tli.it
he ‘ lmd calculated that Dickens ought to liiive been getting;
5210,0o0u.ycurubout the “Nicholas Nicklcby” time if ho
had iiinde boiler nrmngcments with his publislicrs.’
“ (3) Mr. ‘Villain Collins ‘ received .4.‘l0,0()0 for two novels
uloiic.’ Mr. Collins was paid $5250 for ‘ : . -,' iy
siiiith. Elder, and Co. (i.e., Mr. George Smith) before in line
of the story was wiittcn. That was his irrciitcxt pccuiiiury
ucl(i;‘)0ei',emcnt, and I believe that his second-best price was
$4 .

Oddly enough, the rail Mall omitted Antliony Trollope,
who was forty when his first successful work vvns publisliod,
and who, during the next twenty-seven yours, ninde ut lL‘llhi4
