Harriet Beecher (Stowe) was born June 14, 1811, in the charg aloud to the children Miss Edgeworth's Frank, which had just come out, I believe, and was exciting a good deal of attention among the educational circles of Litchfield. After that came a time when every one said she was sick, and I used to be permitted to go once a day into her room, where she sat bolstered up in bed. I have asion. Of this event Mrs. Stowe writes: I remember well the scene at that exhibition, to me so eventful. The hall was crowded with all the literati of Litchfield.

ced by Emerson, by Carlyle, and by Ruskin, yet possesses its own peculiar vitality, a pulsation that at its best may be likened, to use a metaphor of his own, to the beat of wings. Henry Ward Beecher, too, was born in the orthodox uplands of Litchfield, and of a strictly Calvinistic sire. Lyman Beecher (1775-1863) had studied theology under Timothy Dwight at Yale; had occupied, after 1798, first the Presbyterian pulpit at Easthampton, Long Island, next the Congregational pulpit at Litchfielonly in rare cases does the inner clock strike twelve when men have found grace; they may have it, yet not have infallible evidence. Hence he deprecates excessive introspection and hesitation, and says Go ahead. His reminiscences, too, of old Litchfield at a time when that lucky town held Miss Pierce's Female Seminary and the celebrated Law School of Judge Gould and Judge Tapping Reeve, are discursive essays of permanent interest. His story of how, having as a boy of thirteen visited the Char

dges, with its learned lawyers, and senators, and representatives both in the national and state departments, and with a population enlightened and respectable, Litchfield, says Mrs. Stowe, was now in its glory. The high reputation of Miss Pierce's school for young ladies brought a goodly number of fair women into the town, wh Litchfield as a student at the law school, and, in his conversations with Mrs. Stowe, he frequently referred to, and dwelt with enthusiasm upon, the society of Litchfield, which he declared was the most charming in the world. In such a home, and in such a society, Harriet Beecher passed the first twelve years of her life. She w describe the scene of her first public triumph :-- I remember the scene at that exhibition,--to me so eventful. The hall was crowded with the literati of Litchfield.

I endeavor to stimulate them as much as possible, and flatter myself that I have at least kept the old breath in the body, if I have not succeeded in breathing into it any new afflatus. We shall all welcome you back; and we have long ago said— Ducite ab urbe domum, mea carmina, ducite Daphnim. Virgil. Eel. VIII. 68. But do not hasten from Litchfield, and remember me to your daughter, who, I hope, is well. Codification is at a stand-still. Nothing has been said about it yet, though there is a prevailing impression that it will pass, at least so far as the criminal law is concerned. The Legislature have not yet plunged into mischief, though they are floundering on. I have come to the end of my paper and of my thoughts, and must hasten to take the hourly (on the outside) for Cambridge. Ever yours affectionately, C. S. To Rev. D
