He Had a Frown That Terrified ana a Laugh That Startled His Pupiis. The Day the Donkey Came to Schuol Agninat His Will, A writer in The Scotsman has un“earthed an amusing anecdote of Thomas Carlyle as a country ‘‘dominie,”’ for the accuracy of which he vouches. It was told in 1858‘ by a Oupar Fife lawyer and provost who ‘liad been one of: Carlyle’spupils at Kirkcaldy, to the . writer and Hugh Miller. The interest of ‘this gentleman’s reminiscences’ of his schoolmaster was heighteried ‘by hie utter unconsciousness that his old -dominie was the Thomas Carlyle who waa then beginning to be known to fame. The ald gentleman described the older race of Scottish schoolmasters as always during echool hours wearing their hats —at least keeping their heads covered— and many of the boys, viewing the pecoliar angle at which the hat atood apon thé‘head and how near it came to the syebrows, could conjecture if the savage mood were to be that day predomi. pant, **But my teacher, ”’ said the provost, “a strict and gloomy disciplinarian with the name of Oarlyle, never wore his hat in the school, and indeed his brow was so overhung with dark threatening that no extra expression to alarm us was needed from his lum’ hat! He did not thrash us either very often or very severely, but we had a fear that, if” provoked, he would go great lengths in punishment. I bave seen his mere scowl! hush at once the. whole school.’ Hugh Miller here interposed by asking, ‘‘Did your teacher ever burst into @ strange laugh in school?’ ‘*That is a very odd question,” returned the provost. ‘‘Why do you ask? But now that I remember, he had at times a verv extraordinary langh that made us al] stare. It had a*train of -. queer chuckling which exploded in a succession of lond and deep guffaws that shook his whole-body and displayed all his teeth like the keys of a piano. He then clapped his hands on the book he held against his knees. Yet none of us never knew at what he was laughing. He had a grim smile in reproving pupils and a habit of tapping their heads with his knuckles as he told them that the
heads would never be worth the price of bats or the charge of a barber, though ‘. mammas and aunts had that morning combed, kissed and blessed them, as if they were teeming with the sublimest inventions and designs!’’ The provost saw that’ Hugh Miller and some other guests were listening eagerly, and he proceeded : 6 morning, a few minutes before the school bour, when most of the pupile had arrived, and, as rain was falling, they had gone into the school, a donkey, which had broken loose from its tether on a grassy spot near, was en. . ~ tering the playground. Bill Hood and I were so far on our way, and Bill, who was a atout and frolicsome lad—the ringleader in many sports and tricke— rushed to mount the animal and began to guide and force it into the school. “With desperate spurring the donkey was induced to carry its rider over the . thresbhold, and what a reception both of them got from the juvenile crowda! Bags of books were at once fastened to the tail and around the neck of the ass, and so busy wers Bill and half a dozen companions in urging the, animal toa canter around the school -and to ascend the short stair of the master’s desk that they did not notice how time was speeding, and before they could remove the atranger Mr. Carlyle appeared. ‘*We expected a tremendous explosion of wrath, but he bprst into a roar of laughter—euch a roar, however, as, instead of tempting us to join in it, produced a sudden and vomplete bush, and that roar was renewed again and again when the ass, withdrawing its forefeet from ‘the first step of the desk stair and . ~ turning round, took a pace or two slow\ ly toward the master as if to salute him. ‘* ‘That,’ exclaimed Carlyle, ‘is the wisest and best scholar Kirkcaldy has yet sent me. He. is fit to be your teacher.’ He tapped the donkey’s head as he was wont to do ours and said, ‘There’s something here far more than in the skulls of anv of his brethren before me, though these skulls are patted in fond admiration by papas and mammas, and though that far grander headpiece meets only with, merciless blows.’ ‘‘He then gave some hard taps on ' Bill Hood’s head, and would not allow him to dismount, but for a penalty ordered bim to ride up and down the school for an hour, while those boys who bad been most active in helping Bill to go throngh the farce had to march in pairs before and behind the perplexed Jooking ass. He did not require the other scholars to sttend to their several echool lessons, but silently . permitted them to stand as spectators of the grotesque procession. Then he himself, seated within bis pulpitlike desk, surveyed Bill and his company. ‘«T have not for years thought of this scene,’’ continued the provost, ‘‘but it has pow come buck tome freshly, and I remember that my old master had a very strange laugh. I don’t know what has become of him, nor indeed have I heard of him eince I left Kirkcaldy school. ” Too Great a Risk. ‘‘James, if anybody inquires for me today, tell them I am uot in.oy Yes, sir. » “There might: possibly be one who would not have a biil,”” muttered the young man, ‘“‘bnté fll not risk it.’’ Cleveland Plain Dealer. ae di1.
