RUINS OF~ST7PAUL'S.
Origin of Macaulay's Phrase In nn
Eighteenth Century Poem.
It has long been understood that the
real Inventor of Macaulay’s famous
Now Zealander was Horace Walpole,
who, In a letter to Mason, written in
1771, said: ‘‘At last some curious trav
eler from Lima will visit England and
give a description of the ruins of St
Paul’s, like the editions of Balbes and
Palmyra.” But Mr. Bertram Dobell
writes to the London Academy giving
the Idea nn earlier date. He finds It
embodied In this old title page:
Poems, by a young Nobleman, of Dis
tinguished Abilities, lately deceased; par
ticularly, The State of England, and the
once flourishing City of London. In a
letter from an American Traveler. Dated
from the Ruinous Portico of St. Paul's,
In the year 2199, to a Friend settled In
Boston, the Metropolis of the Western
Empire. Also Sundry Fugitive Pieces,
principally wrote whilst upon ills Travels
on the Continent. [Motto from Juvenal.)
London, 1780.
Mr. Dobell explains that, though the
book Is dated 17S0, the poem lu It on
London Is dated March 21, 1771. lie
attributes It to tho profligate second
Lord Lyttelton. Here Is one of his ex
tracts from the composition:
And now thro’ broken paths and rugged
ways,
Uncultivated regions, we advanc'd
Towards fum'd Augusta's towers, on the
Thames
(Whoso clear broad stream glides smooth
ly thro’ tho vale)
Embank'd, and stretching o’er the level
plain.
For many a mile her glided spires were
seen,
While Britain yet was free—alas! how
chang’d.
How fallen from that envy’d height;
what tlmo
Bhe rul'd the subject nations, and beheld
The Spaniard crouch beneath her spear,
and all
The Oalllo lilies crimson'd o'er wltt
blood.
Extinguish'd are their glories, and hei
sun
That once enlighten'd Europe with hU
beams,
Bunk In the West Is set, and ne'er agalr
Shall o'er Britannia spread his orient
rays I
These were my thoughts whilst thro' a
falling heap
Of shapeless ruins far and wide diffus’d.
Paul's great Cathedral, from her solid
base,
High tow'rlng to the sky, by heav'ns
command
Amidst the universal waste preserv’d
Struck my astonish'd view.
On this fair object my fix'd eye was kept
In pleasing meditation, whilst my guide,
A poor emaciate Briton, led me on
Through streets, and squares, and falling
palaces,
(Where here and there a habitat was
seen)
To where stood once amongst the peo
pled town
Th’ Exchange of London.

Good Listeners.
In conversing with one’s friends noth
ing is so chilling as an apparent lack
of attention and sympathy. It might
be added that nothing is more vulgar
were not the listener’s indifference
common to the majority of our most
cultured people. If when one is ad
dressed she will remember to Incline
the body slightly forward an attitude
of rapt attention will soon be uncon
sciously assumed and, whether really
worthy of it or not, new recruits gain
ed for the always popular, as rare,
class known as “good listeners.”
