General Boynton, in one of his letters to the
Cincinnati Gazette describing incidents of the
Santo Domingo commission, speaks of Mr..
Wade as its "brains and practical director
and thus alludes to his matter of fact diplo-
macy:
"Mr Wade, continues General Boynton, was
the horror of all the stcklers for stiff diplomatic
forms. Where he was expected to stand on the
right of some Dominican or Haytien dignatary,
he was pretty certain to be found on the left,
or even behind, if he could hear better, or have
a clearer idea of the proceedings. If it was hot
he left his beaver at his room and wore straw
hat, and carried his yellow sun umbrella into
the very presence of royalty itself. 1t was a
very difficult matter to crowd him into swal-
low tailed coat even when some with him be-
lieved in the bottom of their hearts that with
out proper gloves, cravats, and coats the poss-
bility of annexation would vanish into thin air.
When the commission called in state upon
Baez, Wade went up to the "palace" in white
canvas shoes. When the Tennessee beat to
quarters, dressed all its officers in cooked hats,
dress coats, epaulettes and all the plumes and
tinsel the regulations prescribed, and received
BaeZ with the same salute to which the Queen
Of England or the President of the United
States would be entitled, Mr.. Wade dropped a
book he was reading, and made haste to the
gangway in his red easy slippers and easy coat,
to welcome Baez as he came over the side.
When calling formally on President Saget, of
Hayt, he went up in straw hat, alpaca sack
coat and white canvas shoes, and talked to all
the bedizzened and lace.covered dignataries of
that great minstrel show, called a government,
as a plain man would talk to those of whom
he had some definite things to ask-at which
these mnstrels affected to be shocked, and de-
clared they had been insulted.''

Inter den Linden and Berlin must be con.
sidered as an erection, not growth. No street
no building, no statue in Berlin has sprung
from a deep-lying need, has shaped itself thu
and no other way, and attracted to itself such and
such adornment, by reason of a spiritual law
with fine overriding and appropriating of all
incOngruities and uglinesses. Yet this lack is per-
haps no drawback, for it leaves the field open
for the absolute, pure invention of the artist,
unshackled by need to suit himself to sur
rounding conditions, whether Nature or Art
But his rules. though more symmetrical, more
skllful perhaps, lie much nearer the surface.
Therefore Berlin creeps to no place in the heart,
fastens not its fingers on the imagination for
one hears there no voice from the life Of past
ages, meets nothing crusted over with human
passion. Things found their places much like
Wilhelmsstrasse- principal avenue intersect-
ing the city, where oil the official people live,
but bog seventy years agO-when Friedrich
Wilhelm I'LL determined to have street there.
- Build, build!" he said to all connected with
the government, and they did, though the labor
was hard and the piles had to be driven deep.
Carp were sometimes caught in digging founda
tions.
The sympathetic aid of Mother Nature is
entirely lacking--in no city more glarngly.
Paris to I've sure. lies in monetOnous plain,
but the Seine flashes stream of sparkles
through tin spring the pink horse-chestnuts
Gushing its banks-while the sluggish, leaden
Spree only serves as an excuse for bridges and
as a canal to bring produce into the city.
Considered as voluntary human work, as a
nower Of human faculties and endeavOr, this is
the most brilliantly successful city in Europe,
not excepting even Paris.-L'ppincohs Naga-
