EMERsoNIAN APHoRIsMs.-The following
sentences are from Emerson's new lecture
on Poetry and Criticism
"Veracity is needed in modern poets.
There is too much enamel-too little design.
I want an architect, and they give me an
upholsterer."
"The fault Of most poetry is that it is in
sincere. Unless it has an autobiographical
basis, it shall not rob me of my time. The
poet must believe in his work, or am soon
cured of my belief" sa4
Albthings are transparent to him, and
value the poets name of thing more
than the thing ITSELF"
GIVE may not speak the truth in prose !;
we may in poetry"
Memory is the test of poetry. I am
dazzled at the first reading, but afterward
the important passages return to me, and
| am drawn back to re-read and enjoy
them"
Let the poets omit all but the impor-
tant passages, and we shall have true po-
etry."
Shakespeare was made up of important
passages. He invented characters, and
then reported their words and acts as if lie
knew the men. This is poetry"
"Real kings and queens seemed shabby
counterfeits of his monarchs, for the roy
atty he knew was all his own, and his ira
gedy was victorious melody which healed
its own wounds"
"He was street bible as we'll as the
companion of the finest minds-the most
robust thinker that ever existed; and the
babe in its cradle is to be congratulated on
the possession of Nature and Shakespeare"
"Cervantes went out of the world one
day that Shakespeare might be born the

New ORLEANS, November THE troops
sent to reinforce General Rousseau during
the recent excitement have been returned
to their stations.
The Republican, in a leader defending
General Rogseau from the attacks of the
Radical press, says "his position has been
most difficult one, and knowing as we do
his views, wishes, and the means at his dis
posal to enforce them, we propose to do the
gallant soldier the justice Of placing him
correctly before the world. General Ros-
seau, recently from civil life, was well
known as decided Democrat, and it is
part of the justice we tender him to
saw that he disayowed with promptness
any partisan bias in the administration
of mis- command. When violence and riot
threatened it's worst contamination the
troops at his command were mere hand
full. To the request that forces be dis
patched to Franklin and Opelousas parishes,
he responded by an order directing them
Immediately to those points; but before
they could leave the disorders in the city
increased to such degree that not
musket could be spared. Feeling his
weakness, he telegraphed to the Score
tary of War instantly, requesting him
that more troops be Immediately sent him.
The Secretary ordered General Gillem to
dispatch at once from Mississippi all the
troops that could be spared. Through the
leaders Of the different parties he made
constant efforts to quiet the clubs and fac
tons. Justice to him therefore requires
US to say to our friends that he was always
diligent and true in his endeavor to pro-
tect life and prevent q riot"

WHAT Will. GENERAL GRANT Do?-The
New lork Journal Of Commerce expresses
the conviction that the Radical party is
made up of material so incongruous now
.a&s it will be next to impossible for it to
hold together for another four years. As
10 the President elect, the editor says:
General Grant is not q Radical, and we
have the very highest authority for saying
that il is his purpose to separate himself
rom the extremists, and TO rally round him
. strong body of the better class of citizens,
v.o shall draw unto them congenial allies
from all quarters, and become, as they
would deserve to be, the party Of the coun-
try. He is also extremely anxious to verify
his party watchword, and TO lead the coun-
,rr At once to peace and renewed prosperity.
T6;s is his purpose, and mo one can deny
TINT i is 8 noble ambition. Not himself a
r,Ii,cian, and with but little experience or
.;;u in civil life, ne does not, as we think,
ell realize the difficulties in the way of
such success as he covets. We do not say
,ast he will fail; for he has undoubted
ruck, and, besides four years Of patronage
:: command, he will also have the advice
aaa practical sid of some strong friends
wLo DO not usually intcrmeddle with pub
lie affairs"

TEND IT, &c.--.Richnoad, November g.,
Some of my old Southside friends who sup
pose that inasmuch as live in Richmond

learning the views Of our rulers have
asked me whether General Stonenan pro-
posed to extend the stay law after the lst
Of January next. As / never spoke to
General Stoneman in my life, / can only
give o hearsay answer; but / have been
assured by an official who is extremely
likely to know the Generals views that he
is determined not to interfere. He takes
the ground, as | am assured, that the in
dolgence already granted has pretty well
destroyed all the substantial security which
the creditors had in 1895, and that it would
be great hardship to protract state Of
things so unequal in its operations as he re-
CARDS that produced by the stay law. /

HEATING CARs.-A new method of heat
ing passenger cars was tried on the Con-
necticut River railroad on Wednesday. 1t
is thus described by the New Haven Jour
nal:
GA bonnet is placed on the top of the car
at each end, to catch the wind while the
car is in motion, and the air rushes down a
pipe in the corner inside. close to stove,
WHICH is made with hot-air jacket, and
attached to the chamber formed by the
heater and jacket surrounding it. On the
floor of the car stands closed box partly
filled with water. The air, whether filled
with dust or not which enters the bonnet,
rushes directly into this 'Eater-ho4, where it
is thoroughly washed, and passing into the
heater, is forced in an absolute pure state
into pipes thatrun near the floor the whole
length Of the car, on each side and under
the seats. q a3.ls&
SAT proper intervals these pipes are per-
forated with small holes, through which
the heated and purified air escapes. The
whole arrangement gave great satisfaction
to all on the cars, and it is thought that o
very great advantage has been gained to
the travelling public by tAis invention.
Y "The apparatus is as easily governed
and regulated as the simplest stove, and is
not at all cumbersome, but quite light and
ornamental, and does not cost half as much
as some other attempts at car-heating APP
psratus. The warmth is distributed equally
throughout the entire length Of the car,
and coming low down toward the floor will
enable passengers to always keep their feet
comfortably warm.n
