MAXr CHILDHOOD ITJEXDS LIVING rcor.nrsroxnrxcE or the DisrATCH.3 UEnwouTU, Exo., .April 30. It is not loner ago thai one of the noblest of Ameri can women said to mc: "If there is any earthly influence tliat miht repress the re siunption, impudence and immodesty of that rapidly-increasing class of my country women who seem possessed of a mad craze to unsex themselves for the pitiable reward of temporary public recognition or notoriety, it would be a genuine study of the genius of George Kliot, coupled with a pilgrimage to the localities upon uhicn her eer day life as a maid and a woman left the ;rand impress ot their personal worth. "This much of an objoct-lesson would be learned if such women are capable of re ceivins grave and serious instruction as would also result from a like study ot the genius ot Harriet lartineau, the Cary sis ter, Roa Bonheur, Dinah Muloc'c Craifc, Elizabeth Jl.irrett Browning, Charlotte Bronte and all other women who arc to re main among the Immortals: That where genius has been the original gift of woman, in the piecie d gree that lias been eent- uallv achieved and accorded, has that woman shrunk from oflensive exhibitions ot her own perso' a'.ity and importance. Another as impiessive truth would have logical revealment. Where any woman charges upon the public with demands for its attention and homage, in the vame de gree of her indict and clamor will it, in time, be withheld and prove her doom to merited oblivion." A iJeas.int Itejjion to Visit. However this may be, remembering George Eliot's work which, in its hold upon the intellect and heart of all English speak ing people, is instinctively grouped with that ot Scott and Shakespeare, and her grand, strong plain face which vou instinc lively group with those of Dante. Bronte, Savonarola and Eiszt, jou come to the pleasant region where she grew o her full stature ot person and genius with something akin to the same indefinable feeling of dreamful untealitv, touched with reference and almost hushed with awe, as when you tread the quaint streets ot old Stratford, close to the shrine of the immortal bard of Avon. Indeed the Shakespeare country is trulv George Eliot's land. Stratford, Warwick, Leamington, Coventry and Xuneatou all lie in a direct line lroui the southwest to the northeast boundaries of Warwickshire. One ot the finest highwavs in Englaud, elm shaded for more than half its length, con nects them a!L Eliot's Warwickshire was the -rdon of felrikespeaf. The same Avon MiiHed back from its murmuring waters upon them botlu The same billowy hills, geuntle slopes and sunny valleys gave both their inspiration and imagery. Their hearts warmed to the same peasantry. In the saib tledclineation 01 these, Eliot vras to the early Victorian age, at least in a degree, what hakespeare was to the early Eliza bethan. A-id Shakespeare's birthplace and grave at Stratford arc no; ."0 miles distant from George Eliot's girlhood home hituation of tlio Homestead. It lies on the olden highway between Cov entry and Nuneaton. These "towns are but nine miles anart. Bcdworth, a sleepy old pit village, is midway between; and about half war from l.ednorth to Nuneaton, near Arbury Hall, the oat of the Xcwdigates, is Grit!, a fine old English ijrm home and steading, belonging to llu- great Arhurv es tates lion- as w lieu George Eliot's (.Mary Ann Kians'J baliv eves first looked upon the groat firs, cedars, elms and limes which Made this old and ample stone structure. In this house of many gables audtiny-paned bow windous George Eli.'t live'l from March. 1S0, w l.cn she was a, bab- but 4 months old, until March, 1841, when her family removed from Griti to 1'oleshill, Coventry, a p-riod of 21 years. These weie the L'l v tars in which were nurtured and matured ali those bodily, heart and mental forces which gave her the highest place in literature of any woman that ever lived Her father, Jiobert Evaus. was a tena..t of Mr. Francis Xewdi;ate, at Kirk Ilalem, Derln shire. On the duath of old Sir Boger Nevvdigate the A 'bury estate in Warwick shire came to Francis Xcwdigate for life, and Kobert Evans accompanied him to Arbuiy as Ins tenant and agent. By a first wife there had been two children" Their mother died in ISO!'. Their father married Christiana I'earson in IMS. llirllulay orthe Famous ITcimn. Three children were boin of this union Christiana, in 1S14, Isaac, in 181G, and Maiv Ann (George Eliot), in 1819, at the "ao'ifh rami," Arbury, which had been given the lather temporarily. Cross, in his biography of George Eliot, transcribes from au old diary of the father where it had been penned in his own handwriting: Nov. 22, 111 "Mary Ann Evans was born at Arhuiv Farm (this was "south Farm," Arbuiy) ut fix e o'clock this morning. It was St. Cecilia's day. It is also of record that the child was biptized in the ancient church of Chilvcrs Coton, which rears its crumbling Norman tower oyer a landscape that will strongly icmind you of the moors about UawortliT whete the sisters IJronte snuggled nearly all their live-; in pathetic silence. This" quaint old pile mid way between the Grid faimhouse and Nu neaton, am1 the half dozen houses under its tares, is theShepperton of "Amos Barton." The three Evans children, then, most and longest associated with Grifl were the three born upon the Arhurv estates. Christiana married a sunreoi., named Clark, ot Men tion, Warwickshire, and died in ISS'.I. George Eliot died in 1SS0. Isaac, as I learned alter arrival here, who had le-mau-ed at Grill and succeeded the novclest's lather as its tenant and the Nendigates' r.zent, suddenlj died in his chair on ic tiiriiing fioni service at Chilvers Coton Chuic.1, in October, lbOO. l'n;.IV ami UnTovpd. His children, nephews and nieces of George Eliot, are four in number. It is an unpleasant but truthful statement that while they command a certain deierence on r.ccount of a relationship without which iheirown small aflairs would never have reached the confines of their little parish, they ate unlovable and unloved by the few oi quality and the thousands of lowly around them. Thev are stein, cold, miserly money-grabber, all; oflensivcly conscious f their radiated importance and snappishly diuilish and lLiieilant to all who bring a whole-hearted leverence to a spot made luminous by the presence of a mighty soul, 'jneuaiigliter, a maiden lady of "severe and awtul asptct, was Isaac's "housekeeper !-r many j oars at Grifl She now residesat Beduorth, and the lowlv ot the place dread Iwr austere vis-igc and her cruel platitudes, llifv freely confessed to me, when'her purse, liauu and gentle words might rehev e great Miflcriug. A brother, the Bev. Fiederic Ivans, is the present rec cr of Beduorth. He prrfonus his canonical offices with me chanical accuracy and metallic soddenness; ciij.vs ids lat "living" as though the Al iinght ha i arra.ucd the parities and popu lation ot England w ith especial reference to the i .carious relations ot the Evans family to jlis ;.!:.i,'. and has no heart or eyes for the povcrv and suffering about him. Hi- I.-i.rst Wayes I'i I.nianiJ. . Ior I'iorth is a pit village, with a few lasigniiicat ji.il str-iggiing manufactories. ASacsarc at i-s low appoint as at any place in England. There is not half enough for .all t!ic reir mr halt the folk to do. These clutch at any ile-sustaining labor with pos itive ferocity; and I could take the Key. lYederic Evans into not only a dozen but a hundred pitiful homes in B"edworth where I attention, svmpatliv, consolation, and even j now and then a few copper pence, would make the name and the religion of a Bed- worth rector stand for much that is seemly in any minister of Christ Another sister is the wife of a clergyman named Griffith. The other brother is Walter Evans. Esq., the present tenant of Griff and agent tor Colonel Newdigate, the pres ent owner of Arbury estate. In all England I have not found any man who has seemed bo capable of justly, incurring the resent ment of English pilgrims to an English shrine; and during five years largely passed in wandering up and down the face of this historic laud, I have never before come upon any human being who so thoroughly illustrated the fact that in nearly every family of good repute there somewhere runs the curristi strain of blood. All this family who remain are rich through miserliness. Thchard, stern natuie was not in ltobert Evans. It began with Isaac, the novelist's brother, who dropped dead in his chair after all his niggardly gaining. The peasant lolk relate how he watched in the hedges lest his laborers might toss a potato to a hungry cotter or tram) in th" highway; how a poor old serv itor named Crabstoek was chased away from Grifl because he let a miner's lad keep a turnip that had fallen fiom his cart; and how another old servv.nt named Jackson hung himself in the farm offices behind Grifl from sheer desperation at the niggard liness and brutality of miser Isaac Evans, airny Am the Clinimin-r Surprises. To the literary pilgrim there are many ,cnarmin? surprises in tne neignnornood ot Gull during a quest ot liientincation ot places and persons with individuality of the novelist. It is a little more than 50 years since George Eliot left Griff foicvcr; quite 40 years since she bade farewell to the lovely home at "Biid Grove," Foleshill, Coventry. Yet there are scores of folk remaining, high and lowly, who knew her intimately as maid and woman. Some who were her rdav mates still survive. A few of those vi horn she gathered into the college of old Dame Moore, just opposite the gates ot Grill, and taught the way of Hope, are still here to bless her with quivering voice and tear-diniir.ed eves. My own discoveries of those who had lived about Griff when the members of George Eliot's family were all together here, include John Marston, an old wheel w right, whose smithy still stands near the steading: "Bill" Jaaues. 77 years of nee. a schoolmate of Isaac Evans and a playmate of the novelist; the old man, Crabstoek, whose generosity vi ith a single turnip lost him his place at Grill"; llichard Emmons, living at Stockiugford, now a very old man and reputed bv the peasantry to have "hat fuls ot sovereigns," who was, in turn, field laborer, house servant and footman at Grift, footman at "Birds Lodge" and finally house servant back at Griff for Isaac Evans, until his death in 1SP0; and William Moore, now 73 years of age, who lives at Collvcrott, a little miners' hamlet between Bedworth and Griff. Scripture Teacher to tho Poor. The latter is the son of the Teritaole Dame Moore who cept the Dame's School opposite Grill's gates. It was in his moth er's cottage that George Eliot, then a maid en ot 15, gathered together the children of the miners and cotters about Griff and taught them, for several years, lor an hour or two each Sunday morning, and then took her ragged charges to Chilvers Coton Church In the alternoon they all came together again when she taught them from the Scriptures and some simple melodies of the tmiu "God bless ee, sir!" said old William Moore, the tears trickling down his wrinkled face, "I can see 'er hangel face she vi or a plain sort o' hangel, sir this minu'c afore iny eyes. Mary Ann tcached t' class fur nigh onto five year. Sh wor a great sehollard, sir, an' a 'ooman true. " You will turn away from Grifl with "a blessing for the father who made this girl his inseparable companion until her years of womanhood had come, and almost w ith a blessing on Griff itself, despite the hatefnl atmosphere of to-day, for what came out ot this olden fireside circle; circling and w iden ing until it had zoned with the"fruit,of one woman's genius all our good old globe.
