OSCAR WILDE.
Oscar Wilde, the esthete, now doing time at Pentonville, has been taken off the tread-mill, and put to picking oakum, with making matches to follow. The doctors absolutely refuse his being kept on the mill. He is in good health. Recently he asked a friend to send him St. Augustine's works and some historical books. His plays are about to make their re-appearance on the English stage. The Grand Theatre announces the production of "The Ideal Husband" according to a London dispatch of June 30th, and prints Wilde's name as the author, in large letters on the bill. Lord Alfred Douglas has bought and furnished in a most luxuious manner a bijou residence not far from Sorrento, Italy. He has openly declared that his avowed object is to await the release of Oscar Wilde, when he will at once transport him to the Italian coast. Young Douglas has written a sonnet which he told a French journalist would be the first piece of reading Oscar Wilde would have from the outside world. "Dorian Gray" has been translated into French, and the Parisians are raving over it.
