The f famous Bodelein Library was also visited, anda walk had around its miles of shelves, contaming mil lions of books and rare manuscripts. At Christ Church Cathedral we were ad dressed by the Dean in his very happy style. ‘Tea was served in the Town Hall at 5, and at 5.30 our special started off for Leamington, which town we made our headquaaters for four days, leaving there each morning and returning at night.

AT LEAMINGTON

we were received with open arms, the en- tire town flocking to the depot and along the route to the chief hotels. Decorations abounded on ail hands, flags floated from every avi silable heix ght, arches span ined the streets, and flowers and bunting were used in lavish profusion. The drive to the hotel was a genuine ovation, the crowd cheering the oceupants of every carriage. Among the transparencies displayed in “the illumi- nation (which was kept up for three nights) none were more prominent than ‘* God Speed Imperial Federation,” ‘* Success to our Colonies,” ** Britons Stand Firm,” and ,**God Guard All.” <A swell conversazione and banquet in the Town Hall the first night, a dance on the village green the second night, and a grand ball the third

by Sir Walter Seott. The outer wall origin- lally enclosed seven acres. The castle was | built by Geoffrey de C linton, chamberlain | anc | treasurer to Henry |., and was bestowed | by Elizabeth on her lover Robert Dudle vy, Karl of Leicester, who e xpended £60,000 in | re pairs, improvements, and in entertaining

| his queen in a style of sumptuous miagnifi-

| cence of which we have no example in modern times. It was taken by-the parlia- mentary army in the civil war, and by them utterly ruined. Later on, Charies I. gave the property to the ancestor of the present owner, the Earl of Clarendon.

But the most indelible portion of our trip was that which took in Stratford-on-Avon, a perfect model of an English country town, with typical broad streets, well built houses and luxuriant gardens. Our first visit was to

SHAKESPEARE’S BIRTHPLACE, in Henley Street, where we spent several never-to-be-forgotten hours, and of course many changes have swept over this house since the days when the “gentle William” was a boy. It was used as a butcher's shop and from its doors have been carried the foaming tankards of beer, dispensed to Stratford sinners by a Stratford publican. Relic hunters have chipped, cut and carved the structure till one wonders that there is anything left of it. Indeed, the house was once in serious danger of being transferred to America by the great P. T. Barnum, whose agent stupidly allowed himself to be outbid at the auction of the place by a committee of local gentlemen—a crime for which Barnum never forgave him; at least, that is the tale which Stratford folly retail to credulous strangers. Passing up a winding, wooden staircase in this half- timbered house of unpretentious” appear- ance, we entered the room where Shake-

| r

;Sspeare was born, The walls and | window-glass of this room are covered with names and inscriptions, in’ divers langu-

wes, by pilgrims of all nations, ranks and conditions. Walter Scott, Byron, the creat Duke of W ellington, Tom Moore, Mes. Hemans and Charles Dickens have left their autographs on the walls or win- dows. We sat in Shakespeare's favorite nook in the “‘ingleside,” strolled in his garden and plucked a bunch of the flowers he so eulogises in his plays ; examined the bard’s gold seal ring, bearing the initials ‘W.S.,” entwined with a true-lover’s knot, and virtually absorbed the contents of the pile of manuscripts and old prints displayed lin the museum kept in the adjoining cot- tage. From here we went to New Place and saw the site of the house in which the poet died, and in which he spent the last nineteen years of his life, and then we crossed over to the beautiful old parish Shake- speare’s monument adorns the doorway on the left of the chiacel. The bust was ori- cinally painted to represent life, but Mal- one, one of Shakespeare’s numerous editors, painted it white, and for this bar- baric act he is thus indicted by a writer, whose words we read in the visitors’ album :

Stranger, to whem this monument is shown,

Invoke the poet's curse upon Malone ;

Whose meddling zeal his barbarous taste dis- plays,

And daubs his tombstone, as he mars his plays.”

The bust has of late years been restored to its original condition. ‘* The poet's curse,’ referred to above, is no doubt that contained in the following verse (written by the bard himself), which we saw on the tlat stone that covers Shakespeare's grave near the monument :—

(iood friend, for Jesus’ sake forbear«

fo digg the dust encloased heare ;

Bleste be the man that spares thes stones, And curst be he that moves my bones.

Tradition says that because of this curse, neither his wife or daughter, though strong- ly desiring it, were interred in the same grave, but were buried near by. As a mat- ter of course, we went to see the new Shakespearian Memorial Hall (so new that it seems sadly out of place), and travelled down to Anne Hatheway’s cottage to in- spect an old spinning wheel and a few other traps (bed linen included), said to have be- longed to the rather mature maiden whom the lad Shakespeare married, and who— but we forbear. Tue Examrner’s readers, if they desire to do so, know where to find the record of the great dramatist’s domestic joys and tribulations.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

Nuisances.

Sir, —As a fésident of Charlottetown, and one who has the health of the city at heart, 1 must complain to the proper authorities, through you, of the existing state of affairs in Ward One, and particular- ly on King Street and thereabouts. There are, at least, jfour perpetual nuisances; and to be precise m their location, I may mention the Palace stable, or reserve for manure and the keeping of pigs; the Osborne House stable—the proprietor of which do@s not look to the interest of the city, so far as health is concerned; Blake Bros.’ slaughter house, dung heap and offal receiver, and the cellar under Toe Examin- lex Office—the whole becoming a nuisance | to the surrounding occupants. I send this | as a hint, and if not amended by all parties, pe may hear from me in another way, i. '

by an injunction from the Supreme Court on each and every individual.

Has our City Council or Board of Health power to discontinue a nuisance which may | at an early date breed a fever costing more than the late smallpox epidemic?

Yours, ete., A REsIDENT,

Supreme Court.
