ser and in Milton, in Shakespeare and in
Byron, the germ of the English images that
people our daily thoughts, can be traced to
their paternity in the Iliad and Odyssey.
Here lies the root of all the good writing of
our time. No lconoclast can shatter these
idols we worship. Like the denizens of
Mount Olympus, Homer's characters and
creations are immortal, and as long as the
human race has tongue to wag, as long as
Homeric models will be followed by all the
architects in language.
To stand upon the street, and see Homer's
creations fit by; to see the ideal take shape,
the Imagination to wear the garb of the
real; to see a representation, as it were in a
breath, of the men who humbled proud
Ilium in the dust, is like a glimpse into the
depths of the shadowy land when the veil
is lifted and the prophets mission is full
filled. We have no men in these days.
race of pigmies now people the earth. We
have no heroes of the Homer mould The
battles of the heroic age, when man met
man foot to foot and face so face, not even
a travesty is apparent now. Grim and
bloody as Homer's warriors were, they bore
the stamp of physical manhood to which
We may not aspire.
Finale.
After the krewe had visited the earth
and shown themselves to the rapt gaze of
wondering mortals, they were swallowed
up in the shades of the Varieties Theatre,
and the world that looked on them in the
streets saw them no more. But within,
what scene burst upon the beholder! All
places filled-aisles, circle and galleries; a
blaze of gas making monday light; glitter
of jewels on snowy necks and arms of fair
women the crush of satin and silks, sound
ing like the whisper of the forest leaves; the
usual scene of crowded ballroom, except
that all the chief beauties of every ball of
the season heretofore held seemed cOncen-
trated there. 1t was a revel of the upper
crust, seance of the wealth and wisdom,
beauty and elegance Of the Crescent City,
and gathering of which we may be proud.
The tableaux of the contention of Aga
memnon and Achilles, of the battle before
Troy, of Penelope and her suitors, ending
with the risible battle of the frogs and mice.
entertained the large audience and then the
lead of Terpsichore was obeyed until late
hour.
No one forgot the sweet music of Jaeger's
band, consisting of the following pieces:
Heavenly Music, from Chiapella; Fantaisie
from Stradella; an extract from Donatti !;
an aria from Robert le Diable a medley,
among which was Sweet Home; Sounds
from Home; Informal galop, closing with
grand march from Verdi.
And as we forsake the mimic for the real
world, it is with feeling of keen regret
there is not more of the mimic and less of
the real battles of life.

We think the following from the
Muscatine journal Is just good COM
mon sense:
We hope no attempt will be made
in our forthcoming State Convention
to instruct the delegates for Gen.
Grants re nomination. More than
sixty days will intervene ill the
Philadelphia Convention, and by that
time it might he the general desire Of
the Republicans OF Iowa to see some
one else nominated. At all events, Nh
attempt to instruct will no doubt cause
contention in the Convention, and ii
carried will prove unsatisfactory to
many earnest Republicans in this
State. Let Us send good men, un.
trammeled, to the National Conven.
ton. Ifthey think Il best to vote for
Grant. after comforting with Republi.
cans from other sections Of the coun.
try. IL will be more satisfactory than
IL sent there labeled In advance. Our
State Convention should heartily en-
doFse the administration but 60 no
farther ia that direction.
