Kitz Hugh liudluw, in his narrative ol

tells ?#f an eccentric genius who improved
on the old yarn to the ellcct that the wen

tremendous vitality of thai strain of blood, V
which has now been traced back by phylo- go
logical researches to its Ilindoostanic origiu, to
and which commenced its era of perpetual )j<
prilgrimage aud exile no less than fire huu- U)
dred years before Christ, aud has now com- pi
> )rtotcd its paiuful orbit from the extreme p,
east to the farthest west, is uot yet on- ]]
outworn, although it is greatly di^si- pi
pated. Specimens of the truo physiognoniy ?l,
- marked with all the evidence of uutaiuted fcj
' blood, and bearing the imprint of centuries si
of grief and isolatiou, as Matthew Arnold fi|
? wrote of the gypsy girl seen at the Isle of ?
Man, can be found among the wandering
1 bauds in all the countries of Europe, and p
will possibly exist for souio time to couie. w
i In bountrie^ like Spain 0 Bohemia, where v
, theicouditioiis of life in their rudeness and 0
simplicity afo still suited to their habits s;
r un<| tastes, tiiere is probably little change to a
1 bo rated, either in the character or nuui_
1 her el" the cypsics, and the iutlucuce of the v
? smr^tndinirs iu modifying their nature will o
be Yiry slow. As civilization presses upou ^
^ ?fTer* in eastern Europe, find a place of e
? r)tugo iu Russia, which will long remain a f
d wuitable habitat for the wauderiug tribes. v
Vt is certain, howcevr, that in England aud s,
7 Tauco and iu the moro cultivated cuuu- v

dost'oyed by the adveut of railroads and
