THE HAWTHORNE ABANDONMENT
CASE.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
The statements in the morning papers Of Monday
concerning the Hawthorne Abandonment Case'' do
great injustice. Mrs. Eliza Hawthorne has been
for one hour an inmate of my house She has never
been received or acknowledged by me my sons wife,
and the request of her sister and her
self that procured ner admttance 10 the Infant
Asylum under The name OF Mrs. Horton. As the per-
requesting room for patient gave my correct
name residence and occupation, reference TO tho
books of the institution will show did not repre-
sent myself missionary, but IN conversation with
the matron did speak OF having done missionary work.

The yeracity Of the NfsFo

New Orleans Cor. Phiadelpnla linea'
In forming an opinion upon the
value Of the testimony upon which
the charge of intimidation rests,
the bluntness Of the average South
ern negro's moral perceptions must
not be forgotten. 1t is less his fault
than the consequence of the barbar-
ism from which he springs, and the
state of slavery in which he and his
fathers have lived, that his yeracity

firm believer in the idea that the
end justifes the means, and that
evil may be done that good may
come. 1t is rare that a negro of
the uueducated laboring class will
tell the same story twice in the
same manner, and to make him be-
lieyo that thing is true it is only
necessary for one in whom he has
confidence, or who is in authority
over him, to say so. Here is an

Georre sand and george Eliot.

When once the difference oil race,
of national manners and of aoci-
dent are set aside, the resemblances
between George Sand and George
Eliot come more clearly into view.
Both of them "drivc at practice, "
and insist on edifying, SO "strenu-
ous," that both have been accused
Of being prosy and didactic. This
love of preaching is the result, in
George Sand, OF an assured and
definite doctrine. She maintains,
in almost every one of the novels,
that half the unhappiness in this
world, and most of the mischief, is
the result of egotism Of what she
calls personnalite. 1t is unneces-
sary to mark what stress George
Eliot lays on the same theme. That
the world was not made for +" Het-
typ or for "Rosamond," or for
%Gwendolen," is the constant bur-
den Of her sermons But she qS-
pounds her secret, q very open Sc
cret, but method which is not that
Of Nine Sand. That lady's exem-
plary people - as, for instance,
Edmee," Mauprat; the heroine OF
Malgre Tout; the priggish hero OF
La Filleule, and a dozen other de-
voted and unselfish women-seem
to have been born good. They
have a native horror Of selfish
ness and an instructive fury ol
self-sacrifce. The motive for the
self-sacrilce may be slight, or even
ridiculous. Thus tSarah," in
Malgre Tout, actually impairs heI
fortGne to satisfy the extravagant
profigacy of her selfish sisters
abandoned husband. All these
persons of impossible and perhaps
undesirable virtue seem to be good
by what Aristotle would call "Eu,
phuia," the best and noblest gill
that a man can possess. They art
examples, burning and shining
lights, to the little world arounC
them and to the reader. Occasion
ally their influence and love d.
work a change in the character,
which meet them, and another sou
is reclaimed from personnalite. Al
this is very different from the man
ner of George Eliot, who prefers t,
follow her character through tn
hard and even cruel process b,
which circumstances impress then
with their own importance, knocl

which steps when told to step, eats
when told to eat, forms in line
when told to do so, and in the same /
manner loads his gun, charges the /
enemy and dies-all under orders,
severaIly given and mechanically
obeyed. The Russian infantryman
or Cossack does all things "to
order;" but this will not hold true
in one or two respects, for he swears
and drinks whisky at all convenient
opportunities, with a spontaneous
flnency which can only be checked
by checking his breath.
The Russian officers are more re-
moved from the common soldiers
probably than are the military Off
cials Of any other nation. They
are imperious and exacting even to
brutality. The soldier is taught to
regard shoulder-straps as something
to bow down to, and woe be it to
the one who, seeing an officer COM
ing even from alar bows not his
head, and, with military salute,
stands not abjectly until the gilt
, tering uniform has passed by The
cause of this prohibition Of famili-
T. arity of army officers with the men
under them is readily explained
when it is known that the Russian
officers are selected from the nobility
and are expected to hold the sol
J diers to point of reverence which
. will preclude even the possibility o.
disobedience to an order on the felC
