least expects or desires it! 1t was a maxim
with President Van Buren,, we believe, that a
man in political life had better walk fifty
miles any time TO talk with a man than to
write him a letter. How many politicians
can testify to its wisdom
If penmanship is a dangerous diversion
when a man writes over his own NAME, il is
doubly SO when he signs the name of some
body else. Many a fellow who deserved to
be successful has destroyed himself by writing
other peoples names. There was young
Ketchum, for example, rich and popular, who
tried it in a city where justice is VIGOROUSLY
blind; and he had to look through the grated
windows at Sing Sing ever so many weary
months. 1t was a fatal skill that Ketchum
had with that most treacherous weapon.
How many like him have good reasons to
wish no such instrument of self-destruotion
had ever been invented
But it is a poor sort of talent that contents
itself with mere mechanical accomplishments
in penmanship-with the mere ability to
write another mans name quite as good as he
writes it himself. Real genius disports
itself in another way. To be able to ''put
yourself in his place" to know that another
man ought to write a letter. to know Just
when he ought to write it, to know Just what
he ought to say, and then to write it for him
without his knowing it, and bring it forth at
the proper time and place SO that the letter
when written and read shall be a bosom of de-
struction among ones own enemies, to slay
them as the jawbone did the Philistines, and
clear the path to Office and renown-this is
the work of genius in its highest flights, and
ore who can WELD the pen with such brilliant
effects as these, has only to go forward in the
same path conqueriDg and to conquer.

felt at the withdrawal, which was an act Of
Difference to French exigency. The fulfil
ment of the terms of the treaty of Prague
will probably be still further postponed, and
though Baden may not at once be admitted
into the Confederation, Prussian policy will
be more active among the South German
States. The prospect of disarmament is in
definitely delayed, for it is impossible that
Germany should incur the risk Of a capricious
attack without making due preparation
for resistance. The personal reasons which

which ought to bind him to a policy of peace

cause of provocation than the Hohenzollern
nomination might always be provided at five
minutes notice. II is now certain that the
French Ambassador at Madrid and his gov
eminent had known of the candidature as
probable for several months, nor eau
the defnitive adoption of the scheme

Paris. A change of ministry would
afford no guarantee for peace, for the Empe-
ror is absolute master of the foreign policy of
France, and some sections of the Opposition
are professed advocates of war. NJ. Gam

mand of the Emperor's confidential agent,
NJ. Clement Duvernois, that the frontier for.

FRAUDS OF CONGRESSMEN on THE
PENSION BUREAU.
From ths N. Y. Herald.

From the N. Y. Herald.
A very serious allegation against a Tennes-
see Congressman comes IRON Washington.
It is said that one of the honorable members
who were implicated in the charge of selling
.oadetships is now suspected of the more
grave charge of defrauding the Pension
Bureau, by means of forged receipts and
power Of attorney and the illegal use of a
county seal. The frauds, it seems, extended
also to q poor widow, who was the worst vic
tim, living in q secluded part of Ash county,
North Carolina, whose name he forged and
whose pension he pooketed. If these facts can
be provedit will go hard with the Congressman.
So far has the COMMISSIONS been convinced
Of the truth of the charges that he has had an
order issued for the arrest of the accused, and
be will be brought to Washington imme-
diately. Similar charges are reported to lie
against a Georgia member, but they have not
been fully developed yet. These, although
but single cases of such a crime as forgery,
are but feeble evidences of the vast mass of
putrid Generalization in which Congress is
immerged. The sale of cadetships was
shabby, ungentlemanly, supplementary,
and altogether scandalous. This matter of
cheating a poor soldiers widow out of her
pension, and committing forgery in order to
accomplish the purpose, is, probably, still
more in keeping with the general atmosphere
of corruption which pervaded the Fortieth
Congress.
There was a time when Southern members,
whatever may have been their faults, however
bombastic, quarrelsome, and sometimes
ridiculous they may have been on the floor
would shrink from anything petty or con-
temptible. They were men of honor at least.
But, ,u~nhappily, the element which represents
that region of the country now is Of entirely
different character. It would seem as if the
small vices imported there from the North of
late have been exported to Washington in the
torn Of gigantic crimes. Taking into con
sideration the entire corrupt course of the
last Congress and its utter worthlessness for
all purposes of good to the country, we are
not much surprised to hear of isolated cases
of grave offense like this discovered by the
Pension Bureau brought home to members.
Indeed, we expect to hear a good deal more
of them; but we hope that a few examples
will be made and condign punishment will be
inflicted upon the guilty, in order to serve as
O warning to those who may stand upon the
brink of infamy and have not yet fallen into
the gulf, if any such Congressman there be
who have this day of grace reserved to them

tionable 10 themselves, as TO be obvious
truisms; but they are rendered ludicrous
by the dogmatic assertion of their necessary
correlation to art. Thus, he insists, the people
must be made clean, must live in tasteful
houses. and eat wholesome food, before there
can be any art school or art taste whatever in
the country which they inhabit. No doubt
there is truth of q broad and general sort in
these assumptions; but their trustworthiness,
as practical guides, dissipates into thin air in
the light of very common experience. Aris-
totle taught the republic under Alexander;
Turner painted the most glorious of English
landscapes among a people more wretched
than can now be found in London; all manner
of lovely works in literature as we'll as art,
ranking among the most perfect in existence,
have been produced in evil times and amid
the most corrupt society.
The truth is that Mr.. Ruskin has mixed up
his Political Economy with his Art Oriti-
cism, until neither he nor his readers can
tell where one leaves off or the other begins.
TIL consequences of o~ver-population, the
entail of real property, and other special and
local matters, are associated by him with the
development of art in a manner that is often
plausible and eloquent, but not always either
coherent or rational. He is no wiser in this
regard than are our own native philosophers
who insist upon imputing to democratic in
stitutions all the beneicent results that have
sprung from vast area and sparse population.
But Mr.. Ruskin has told us so much in his
former works, and even in his present lee
lures, that if not invariably new, has been
not only true but beautifully expressed, and
full of healthful morality; so that adverse
criticism in his case must always be over
balanced by gratitude. Sharp judges may
soy of him that he knows not logic, and that
be is even at times absurd; but there are few
writers of our generation in whom we can
sooner overlook weakness in the application
of the laws of reasoning or more easily for
give occasional absurdity.

WATKINS GLEN.

A party of railroad men
and editors-haye lately visited the glen at
Watkins, n. Y. Among them was Porte
Crayon," OF Harper's Magazine, and
Volck, the sculptor One of the party
thus describes the scenery:
1.-The glen is a gorge, cut through the
solid rock by the water. which finds an
outlet into the lake, after many tortuous
wndings and eddyings, forming cascades
and rapids at every few steps. 1t was first
brought into notice in 1868, when stair
cases were built so as to render the first
section passable Bridges have been
thrown across the various chasms, stairs
constructed, and footways cut in the
rocks, which form complete wall on
either side, SO that now the glen is open to
visitors for some mile or more. This
strange freak of nature is well worthy of a
visit during the summer months.
AT the present season, when the rains
have swollen the streams, the scene of this
wild place is rendered more striking. The
roar of water as it dashes from rock to
rock, now forming pools and eddies, now
falling with sullen boom into the basins
of solid rock which have been worn smooth
and circular by huge boulders washed
down in the fall, and whirled round and
Iouuu DN ttlt NdtttS IdWcilne dDoFC,
high walls shut out the sunlight, while
lichens and MOSES cling to the strata, and
pines and hemlocks find a doubtful foot
hold at dizzy heights or shoot out from
riffs along the sides, at times falling across
the narrow gorge, forming bridge, or
leaning away out over the waters, uncer-
tain whether to plunge below or cling to
their scant foothold. The dripping of
water is heard on all sides. A constant
current of damp air sweeps through the
narrow place, and solemn silence, save
the roar of waters, always prevails. No
animal life is seen, the song of cheerful
birds finds no echo in this dismal place,
the nimble squirrel avoids it, a solitary
toad may sometimes be seen peering out
from its damp abode among the dripping
rocks, but all other signs of life are absent.
The stream of water which flows through
this narrow gorge winds around the rocks
SO thar further progress seems at times
completely barred 4 few steps, howev-
er, reveal a rift through which the tourist
energies into still stranger formations of
rock and water just above Glen Alpha.

age, is now being constructed commo-
