W A K KM ANWAN DERINGS CABLYLVS OHiLSSA HOME AND BOUND ABOUT. An Ancient London Suburb Replete With Memories of Kings, Courtiers, Statesmen, Novelists, Poets and Painters—A Pleasant Region Where Worthies' Wraiths Unbidden Rise. Charming Memories Recalled. iCovvrioM.) London, Nov. 14. —A good sweat book could be written about the lolk who have loved and known old Chelsea whom we have known and loved for what they did for the world. Many years ago I saw one of these folk on a London ’bus and had a good hour’s study of him as a ourious character without kuowiug who he was. He first attracted m_v attention by his generally disheveled mid thrown-together appearance. When tie entered tho ’bus he held a copy of the London Times in one baud and dragged a very old bit of a traveling rug in the other. He slapped the latter over his knee as he sat down, glanced at the pas sengers sava.eiy, and immediately closed his eves and b gan a peculiar motion of his m >uth that seemed like a nervous chewing of bis nether lip. He was a scraggy and it then seemed to me an 111.kempt man, out of sorts with all tha world. 1 mentally endeavored to place him. Perhaps ho is someone of those seedy old clerks so wondruusly picturod by Dickens, thought I. He may be a miserly old batchelor who daily tumbles out of his lodgings and into his work and then back again, never knowing change, sleeping In his clothing, mummified to everything on earth but his ledgers ami his desk. If he have a wife and family, be cull's the children, warus the cook, abuses the housemaid and “blows up” his wife before leaving his habitation, and tills particular morning he has made them understand who is master with greater ven geance than usual. Pretty soon be seemed to awake with a start, glared aguin ut his fellow passengers, utul, giving bis bony knees a vicious twist away from proximity to aii elderly fat woman who sat reside him, plunged into his paper as though so far he had overlooked his duty of discovering, capturing and pun ishing some sort of sedition within. Sure enough it was there. He scanned the editorial page for a moment, smashed the pnper togethor with his kuuokly hands, dropped it upon the ’bus floor, and, pawing it back beneath his feet, for some time gave it a nervous kind of pounding which plainly told his senti ments for the balderdash he had discovered. be fell to chewing again with bis eyes quite closed, and shortly awoke with a start, to lounge toward the door and soundly be rate the conductor for carrying him past bis destination. I could not hear all of his scolding; but it brought traffic on the Strand to a stand still; and then the scraggy, hairy, tum bled-up, loose-join ted oid man disappeared among toe cabs and busses, a tangible, Irascible altercation with a Scotch dialect, prompting from drivers as he pass and the choicest blackguard quips and quirpsthat roll from London drivers’ ready longues.

A pleasant-faced man sitting beside me, noticing tuy look of In quiry and rightly judging my nationality, kindly solved the mystery. * ‘ily dear sir,” ho said with almost an air of pride, "he’s a brave literary man that. He wasn’t born in England, but he’s the biggest man in it. When you get baok to America you can tell tbe yankeea you’ve seen old Thomas Carlyle I” I never saw him again. But the London incident of long ago made me a studeut of Carlyle one of the most diflioult tasks of tuy life; and, from much reading after the sturdy old barrator In philosophy and reli gion, many pilgrimages to his birth place, up there in dreary Ecclefeohan, and to other British localities which his strange person ality and genius made something like shrines, I have come to love his memory, and especially to have au affection for the place where for half a life time be strug gled. contended, railed, assaulted, defended, suffered and repented in 1119 humble and imperial, niggardly and noble career. That place is Chelsea. It Is London now. You cannot find a break in all the great musses of solid structures from the densest part of the borough out to old Chelsea and for many miles beyond. Yet the Chelsea region is still ini st charming.y distinct. You know insensibly when you orune to it. You feel, without being told, that you have crossed its boundaries on leaving it. Without participating in its memories, knowing none of its history, if you were set down with in it, its lovely, leafy, somnolent air has the very spirit and hush of lingering noble presenoes. You dally nni idle upon its streets as if wo ed by the unconscious spell of memory, ns if laggard from pleasant companionship, as if held by the gentle hand of reminiscence. In the very heart of this pleasantest of all London outer districts Thomas and Jane Welsh Carlyle literally battled along to gether, from Oct, 10, 1834, until Mrs. Car lyle’s sad and strange death in her brougham in Hyde park, in April, 1566. The lonely old soul tuat was left remained, rather than lived, in the same house to tbe end, in 1881. Aud I somehow believe that the forty-seven years’ staying of the sage of Ecclefeohan in No. 5 (i; eat CUeyne row has thrown more of a poetic glamor over old Chelsea than all the other fumous and great who have coins and tarried and gone. Materially, Sir Thomas More origiually made Chelsea. Carlyle rounds out its fame. Vast fields of history and romance lie be tween. This “pore house in Chelchith,” as the ancieut records speak of the home of Sir Thomas More, was not so bumble an habitation after all. It bad agi ut porch, many flue windows, dozens of gables, a pretty tower, splendid gardens tor tbe time, and besides housing lbs happiest family living in England ill tbe sixteenth century, wa9 so attractive a place, though then far away from London, that Queen Mary was "moved to purchase it;” the gurrulous Erasmus found it a hospitable retreat, and King Henry VIII often came up the Thames m nis royal barge to debar* and stroll to this first old Chelsea ma sion with bis arm lovingly ar >und tho neck of More, which his headman’s ax severed one July morn ing a little later on. Lying along the northern bank of the Thames, to the west of the city, Chelsea proper may be said to begin on the east at SAVANNAH, GA.. SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1892.

I COLLATS*. tbe famous Chelsea hospital for British pensioners. The magnificent Thames em bankment forms tbe shore edge here, and near the Botanic gardens Leoomes Cheyne walk, which continues a mile or so to Bat tersea bridge. In this two or three miles distance, about the center of which is the Carlyle neighborhood, and extending baok from the river to the depth of a mile or more, there are wondrously quaint old structures, clumps of auoient cottages covered with viues and embedded lu greenery, Elizabethan mansions by the score with monstrous chimneys and gray old gables, winding lanes leading from the Thames, where once were fine water-stairs and picturesque (Is er huts, bits of vener able park ana moldy gardens overshado wed by prime modern rows, where the aristo cracy have crowded in upon the older haunts of literature aud art, and cobwebbed tuns innumerable. Chelsea hospital itself is a world of mem ories not only of British history afield, but of the time of Charles 11., of old King James' College, of Sir Stephen Fox, aud of wayward though kind-hearted Nell Gwynne. And as to the pensioners them selves, Chelsea would hardly be Chelsea without them. Straggling along its shady thoroughfares, sitting bent and silent on suuny benches, leaning against wiinpling fountains or vaßos and statues, resting as composedly as house owners on steps and in vestibules, or stumping gravely along with orders to this or that servant, as if long habit had them supervisory rights over ihe daily affairs of residents, they irresistibly suggest bevies of croaking cockatoos turned loose in park and gardens each one querously harping upon some fancied grievance or delight. At the western side of the hospital still stands Sir Robert Walpole’s house, almost precisely as it stood when he all but ruled K gland through the two Georges, first and second. It is now a portion of the hospital infirmary. It was to tins old red brick mansion that Walpole’s ri val Boltngbroke came to dine and half choked for his cholor; where Swift and Gay ca tie to get material for satire; and where Po; e came with scandal of his past amours and, probably, to beg for assistance in others. Not far from the boipltal, over in the northeast corner of Chelsea, Is a little green oval like a pretty e.nerald lozenge.faround which orowd some very aucient 2-story brick houses. Tne windows are little, the steps, scrapers an 1 knockers are little, but always bright and clean, and it seems that every face you boo at the tiny panes Is little and snappy and old, like all else in this venerable Hans place. At one of these bits of habitations, precisely liko all the rest, was born the poetess, L. E. L. But two doo, s away, in another box of a house, •he went to seiiool. Her school fellows were the East Indian writer, Miss Roberts, and Laly Caroline Lamb. Years after here were also educated other famous women: Lady Bulwer, Miss Mitford, and that best and ter,derest of all Irish writers upon Ire land, Mi s. 8. C. Hall. Tbe one time fatuous Cremorue gardens at tbe western edge of Chelsea, has special interest to Americans. A granddaughter of Y\ illiain Penn, named Philadelphia from the city of her birth, became the second wife of Viscount Cremorne. Outliving her husband she inherited the I ea itiful grounds once known as “Chelsea Farm.” Graunville Penn, once lord of tho Stoke Poges manor. where Gay lived and wrote tEe “Elegy,” fell heir to the propeityaud sold it to the Cremorue Garden corporation. Wicked enough it grew in time. Decorous associa tions retrieved it and an innocent nursery garden now veils its unhallowed site anil memories. At least three anotent taverns in the neighborhood have peculiar old-time in terest. Two, one at tbe western and the other at the ea.tern edge of the parish, are directly associated with Neil Gwynne. That to the west, in which I found a noble sort of publican, and, oddly enough, a oousiu of that rampant little pugilist w hose skill of tongue has never been defeated, Charley Mitcnell, was built by Charles 11. as a home for bis favorite. It was from the windows of this house, now a resort of Chelsea pensioners, that Nell’s eyes looked In upon the then fine meadows of King James’ College, in her dream, when she saw the beautiful palace rise with its thousand chambers out of whioh “divers many old and w rn out soldier mn" came and cried, "God bless King Charlesl” which led to tne merciful fouudiug of the splendid hospital. The other associated with the fame of the pretty orange-girl is a sedate old rookery at me western side if Chelsea. It is called the “Nell Gwynne tavern,” and many a rare tradition of Charles, companion lingers about tbe mellow old place. Another curious inn still in exist ence is tbe “Prince of Wales,” at the corner of Lawrence street and Justice walk, but a square’s distance from tho old Carlyle home in Great Cheyne row. Chelsea was once made known through the artlstio world for its famous china. For the forty years after 1745 its china works, which stood >n the site of the "Prince of Wales,” turned out a produot equal to that of Sevres. In the cellars of the inn you can see the remains of the oveus and baking rooms, just as they were aban doned. Dr. Samuel Johnson was suddenly possessed of the idea that he could as easily make china as a dictionary; aud the doughty old sobolar, but nn killed native workman, fora long time came here daily to spoil good material, his faithful house keeper trudging after him with a huge basket coutaiiiiug his dally food. In Great Cheyne row Smollett lived, lorg before Carlyle came, and here he wrote "Ferdinand Count Fathom” and finished Hume’s "History of England;" while George Eliot died in a house near Car lyle’s In the same modest little thorough fare. Chelsea old ohurch, one of tbe sweetest old places iii Loudon, overlooks the Thames but a few rods distance. Here you will find the black memorla’ slab of Sir Thomas Moore. Lady Lucre, Lady Jane Cheyne and the Duohess of Northumberland, three of Chelsea's former grand ladies, lie i eneath monuments within the church, while Charles, George and Henry Kingsley, onco lived in La rectory with their father, who had received the * ‘living" from Lord Cadogan. In Cheyne walk aloug the riverside lived Turner, the painter. Rossetti lived and sang here among bis birds and flowers, Leigh Hunt’s gypsy-like boms, of wbioh Carlyle has left inimitable descrip tion, was justaround the corner from G eat Cheyne row. Queen Elizabeth used to visit tbe Earl of Shrewsbury at Shrewsbury house just, baok of Cheyne walk. The poet George Herbert dwelt in the same neighbor hood; and at a little barber shop, coffee bouse and quaiut museum, called "Don BalteroV’ by the wits of the time in honor of its grave nobody proprietor, one Bait, who • ‘brewed divine coffee and ehaved with equal terror,” Kichard Cromwell, Steele and Addison and Benjamin Franklin, who worked in a printing shop in Bartholomew close near by, came to get shaved and to loiter over their coffee, “where the literati then sat in council.” Long and pleasant is one’s loitering here. If you oome many days or but one, an eud less host of wraiths of worthies start up unbiddeu iu your wanderings. If once or many times you depart, you will ever insensibly be drawn, at parting, to tbo gray old habitations of Great Cheynerow. The wind .ws of all overlook the turbulent river, darkening Battersea at its farther shore, and the pleasant villages upon the hills of .Surrey beyond. At a windowofone.it matters not who lives there now, your fancy cannot but see a shaggy, sturdy, haggard face. Its gray, defiant but sorrowful eyes are lifted aoross tbe turbulent river, and rest beyond the hills upon that material and spiritual light that somewhere ever brings tbe blessed morning time.
