sCHENCK ON POKER,
QUE ENGLISH AABAssADoR's BREv1ARY ON THE
NOBLE GAME.
New York World, 4th.1

New York World, 4th.l
It was our hope and purpose to lay before
our readers complete copy Of Robert G.
Schenk's treatise on poker, brief which is
destined to take rank with Deschapelles on
whist, and Major Jaenisch or Won der Laza on
chess. The brochure, however, is protected
by a copyright duly recorded with the Libra
rian Of Congress- and, as this copyright has
evidently been taken out not for profit but to
prevent the publication of the book on this
side Of the ocean, we must content ourselves
with making few excerpts from the more in
teresting portions of it Gen. Schenck writes
well, and he has compressed much in small
space in this little book.
It may be said of our poker-playinp Am.
bassador as was said by Montesquieu Of Ia
citus, that he abridges all because he knows
all The "infinite variety" of poker is all
summed up in the convolutions of our Min
listers brain, and he shows much of that pecu-
llarly diplomatic tact des conuendnces 80 neces-
sary to the Envoy in instructing the British
in the rudiments of his noble game. Gen.
Schencks experiences as a high-tariff advo-
cate have taught him all about the omnipre-
sent enormity of "British gold" and his
desire to be avenged on it is quite natural
It is legitimate part Of his mission to Lon
don.
The envoy now, whom thirst of fame invites,
Burns encounter Britain's we'll fedged knights
At poker, swiftly TO decide their doom,
And swells his heart with conquests yet to come.
Gen. Schenck knows quite well that an am
bassador is not only the agent of the country
which sends him, but also represents the
dignity of its sovereign. In his case the
sovereign people are to be represented, and it
was wise thought of Mr. Schenck to try to
reflect our dignity in the character of our
national games. It was for this reason that
he has printed his breviary of poker; for this
reason he last summer patronized the profess
sional base ball players who went over to
show English cricketers thing or two; for
this reason it may be inferred he patronized
Stewards and Parks "ittle game" on Lom-
bard street.
EXTRACTs-ORIGIN OF POKER.
Whist, as the name signifies, is a mute
game, and was invented. it is so claimed, by
the peers of England, who needed rest for
their wearied tongues after having talked all
day and half the night in Parliament. In the
same way poker was needed to stir up the ex-
hausted fires Of our American orators, burnt
out on the stump. No political campaign or
session of Congress is possible, or endurable,
without its poker accompaniment.
''Short" whist is said to have orig mated
from the game being cut in half one night to
enable Lord Peterborough to recover some

FRANK B. SANBoRN MIR. +. b San
born deserves prominent mention among
Concord authors. He is well known to
the public as the friend, and almost the
brother martyr, of John Brown. He
taught successful private school in
Concord for several years, and in 1860
had two daughters of John Brown
among his pupils. On the evening Of
April 8, 1860, was made the memorable
attempt to kidnap and convey him to
Washington He had previously been
summoned to appear before select COM
mittce of members of the Senate to
answer concerning the charge of com.
plici,y with John Brown, As is well
known, the highest legal authority OF
Massachusetts opined that the Senate
had no authority SO to summon him.
The attempt to kidnap him, which
aroused such general Indignation, was
the consequence of his refusal to obey
the summons to the capital. There was
"A coafict, which resulted in the delivery
of NJ. Sanoorn by force, and the pur
suit ot tn officers for long distance
over tie Boston road
After the attempt on his liberty, Mr..
Sanb9rn wen: to Canada, aud waited
there the settlement Of the disputed
question Of the Senate's authority He
at length returned to Concord aud went
on with his school more than two years
longer He subsequently, held the office
of Secretary of the Board Of State
Charities, aud at the same time was lit.
erary editor Of the CommonWedith, a
Boston weekly He afterward removed
to Springfield, having resigned his secrc
taryship and entirely discontinued teach
iug, and became one of the editors of
tie Springfield Republican, of which
paper hc is now the Boston correspond
.ent or reporter He resides, as has been
previously mentioned. in the Thor au
