oDEAR OLD THACKERAY.�
Side Lights.That Show His t avebee:
. Traits in Farnily: Life.
A characteristic story of dear old
Thackeray� is told by Mrs. Ross in
~~Thackeray was
@ constant visitor,� said she, ~~in
QueenTs square, and a great favorite
of mine, though he played mea
trick on my fifth birthday which re
mained a standing joke between him:
and the ~young revolutionist,T as he
afterwards used to call me, because
I was born on the 24th day of Feb-
ruary. My birthdaysT were always
. celebrated by a dinner, when I was
allowed to dine downstairs and to
invite the guests. Few children-
could boast .of such aa array of
friends; this one included Mrs. Nor-
ton, Lord Lansdowne. Tom Taylor,
Richard Doyle, C. J. Bayley and
Thackeray, who gave. me.an-.oyster,
declaring itT was-like-cabinet pud-|-
ding. But I turned the tables on
him, for I liked it so much that I in-
sisted, as queen of the day, on hav-
ing more. I still possess a sketch-he
made forthe frontispiece of ~Pen-
dennisT while I was sitting on his
kaee.
~~Thackeray: often dropped in .to! .
dinner, generally--announcing him-
self beforehand inTsome ~funny way.

interesting that ~there are two

Cometo Oar Climat:.
The papers all over the State,
and even in the towns near about
us, have been speaking of the
skating the cold weather afforded,
but there bas not been ice enough
around Greenville to skate on
since the big freeze two years
ago. This speaks well for our
climate. While other sections
are freezing hard we are just
moderately cold.
