SEATsFIELD.-A few weeks before | sailed from
New York, there was q lively discussion in The
newspapers respecting the ectual existence Of
German writer upon American manners, said TO he
named SEATsFIsLD, and TO reside somewhere 10
Switzerland. When al Zurich, few days since,
took the opportunity to inquire of bookseller
whether he had ever heard OF such a man. :. Ger
tainly." said he, "and am we'll acquainted with him.
He resided in Zurich anurlber OF years" He then
took down from the shelves catalogue Of books,
and pointed out TO me the following note: SeadS-
field, William, North American, for several years
past resident in Switzerland. The following works
were not published under his own name, but ap
peared anonymously. The excellence OF the sketch
es however, will no longer permit the painter TO re-
main unknown in a wider circle" The works
crbed 10 him were all SIX most OF them in several
volumes, several of which were actually put into
my hands. or course, / could no longer doubt Of
the actualty of Seatsfed, and when looked at the
soiled, well.worn books lit was circulating libra
ry as well as bookstore.) | could readily believe
what the bookseller told me, that they had great
reputation, and were eagerly read. l must confess,
however, that the sketches struck me, on looking
hastily over few CT them, as being overdrawn and
unnatural.


On learning that his publishers had bookstore
not far of, took the liberty TO call upon them and
make farther inquiries about this American, who
lives in Switzerland and writes in German, and who
has followed the example of Sir Walter Scott in at
taching degree Of mystery TO his writings One OF
the firm, with great politeness showed me letter,
received from him few days before, under date Of
july 1874 in which he spells his name SealSfeh,
and not Seaisfed or Seadefield, and then gave me
the following account: "Twelve years ago. a tall,
portly man. with n sickly yellowish complexion,
who had lived several years in Zurich without any
visible employment, never mingled in society, and
was very cold and distant in his manners, came into
nv office and gave me manuscript, with request
that should read it, and i'll liked il. make propo-
sails for publishing it. 1t was entitled, des Legitime
und die Repubtikaner. | was Immediately struck
with it's originality and life. The style was very Pc
cuiar. Ii was not German, but kind of English
German, which possibly helped to give the impress
SION of originality. Since then his German has im-
proved, but his later works aro thought NOT TO he
equal TO his first. He told me that he had lived at
Natchez, had been in Mexico, and was formerly
correspondent OF the New-York Courier and Enqui-
rer. Four or five years ago. he made visit TO the
United States. He now lives at Brugg, town ten
or u dozen miles distant on the road to Ba5le SIN
gle man OF fifty years OF age or more"
