The foregoing volumes are in the Nottingham Public Library, and the librarian, Mr. Briscoe is to be congratulated on bringing together Miller's works in the city closely associated with his career. In Paxton Hood's "Peerage of Poverty," a fine estimate of Miller's ability as an author is given, though very little about his life is recorded. On the 25th of October, 1874, he died at his residence, a small house in West Street, Kensington, leaving a son and two daughters. Shortly before his death an effort was made to get him placed on the Civil List. Mr. Disraeli was not able to include him at the time, but, with his well-known generosity, made him an allowance from some other fund. Miller only received one quarterly instalment before passing away. The Cottage Countess. The late Poet Laureate has given a world-wide interest to the romantic story of "The Peasant Countess" of "Burleigh House by Stamford town," in his popular poem, "The Lord of Burleigh." He relates how Henry Cecil, in the guise of a landscape painter in humble circumstances, wooes and weds a rustic maiden, and how a shadow overcasts her bright dream when the real rank of her husband is made known to her:-- "But a trouble weighed upon her, And perplexed her night and morn, With the burthen of an honour Unto which she was not born. Faint she grew, and ever fainter, And she murmured, 'Oh, that he Were once more that landscape-painter, Which did win my heart from me.' So she drooped and drooped before him, Fading slowly from his side: Three fair children first she bore him, Then before her time she died." The poet tells how keenly the Lord of Burleigh mourned her loss, and that he buried her in the dress in which she was married.
