HISTORICAL MYTHS.

Most folks remember the story of the
London Alderman who used to read
Robinson Crusoe through two or three
times year, esteeming the perusal of
that wonderful tale as the greatest pleas
ure of his life. This enjoyment was
rendely put an enl to by some one in
forming him that the narrative which h.
believed was fact was merely work of
fiction. formed by the fertile brain of
Daniel De Foe. The people of Switzer-
land must now be very much in the con-
dition OF the Alderman. Some learned
Cloths named kopp and Schilluer, aided
by the Historical Society of the Swiss
Cantons, have demon strated beyond
doubt that the details of the Swiss Revo-
luton are entirely mythical, that there
never was Landvogt Gessler, nor a
William Tell, that ever refused to lift his
hat, that never fred at an apple placed on
his sons head, although the very cross
bow with which the deed was done is
exhibited at Zurich; he never crossed
the Lake of Lucerene il a tempest of
wind and rain; he never boldly jumped
upon the Tell-platte, never spoke his
speech in the defile at Kusnach, and
never shot the Landvogt What is more,
the Inhabitants of Uri, Schwyz and Un-
terwalden never met by night on the
Ruth. So by the efforts of these pitiless
antiquarians, Switzerland has lost all her
romance, her traditions and her glorious
hero, about whom poets have sung and
musicians have composed. All
these have been scattered to the winds
by these remorseless scholars who have
dived and delved until they undermined
the foundations of one of the most
heroic and inspiring traditions that
ever served as the theme of story. We
are like the Alderman, these antquarians
may be right, but We wish that they had
directed their prying propensities to
some other channel.
