American Fiction.

1t seems as if American readers must
be tired BY this time of the ordinary
English society novel, procurable in any
quantity at q cheap rate. 1t has to do
with q form Of social life more conyen.
tional than our own, with scenery les.
grand and attractive, with personalities
more feebly individualized, and with
events and incidents as much less inter.
csting than those of American life as
the conditions of English life are more
artificial than ours. Men may talk as
they ci'"ose, or as they believe, about
age as being necessary to the creation If
atmosphere Of romance. Ne do not
agree with them. A child's ace of m.
nance is its v childhood. The life #
lives, and the things it sees about it. form
Its romantic realm; and the childhood
OF a nation is peculiarly its romantic
age, not only to the age which succeeds
Il, but to itself. There is nothing more
interesting to an American than a good
tory, either If his own time or Of the
line which has hardly retired from his
,ersonal memory-Dr. J. G.. Holland.

A friend Who knew Mr.. Barnum ol
old has s~ccidentally discovered among
some old papers of about 1881, and
shown US, the following curious card:
.PHINEAS T. BARNUM,
BOARDING. III THE DAY OR WEEK,
"a FRANKFORT STREET,
New YORK."
This was probably in about the yea,
1880 or 1881, preceding Barnum's advent
in the career Of Q Snowman. with "Old
Joyce Heath" He had just been treated
to sharp persecution here in his native
State, for his libersli:y in matters OF
religious belief. Until about 1923 or
1929, it was not competent for . Uni
versalist To testify in . court Of law
here in Connecticut. The Times battled
for a change in the law, and to good
effect, too; and. in Fairfield county, Ar.
Baruum, with his Herald of Freedom,
did effective, il somewhat violent, service
in tn, same direction, and for his attack
on Judge Daggctt and the courts de-
cision, he was ARC sted and put in the
Danbury Jail. He served out his sen
tence, and then went TO New York,
where, it seems, he set out As the keeper
Of a boarding house. A few years later
he conceived the brilliant idea of launch.
ing out into the showman's business,
a career for which nature had more Pc
culiarly and Pre-eminently en- lowed him
than any other man. before or since.
HI got an old Maryland negress, took
her to Boston, and had circulated and
read in the Churches an appeal for aid
