II is o matter of come consolation to learn,
even at this late day, that the time-worn
charges against the Dake of Alva, Marie de
Medici, and the Spanish Inquisition are not
quite 30 bad as they might be, even allowing
them all the strength which the genius of Pro-
testant historians has lavished upon them.
Mr.. Blaine, who in the debate on the amnesty
question echoes these stale cries for an easily
discerned purpose, supplements them by one
additional horror which, in his opinion-and It
is valuable one-oertops ell the rest-the
story of the Andersonville prison pen. Into
the merits of the discussion it is not oar Pur-
pose to enter, but we should feel gratIhed to

decided fall to note in lard this week. Prices have
fallen off from one to two cents all kinds and the
market is still weak and further decline is expect

dismay Of large dealers who have been stocking up
expecting an advance On Tuesday pork fell off one
to two dollars per barrel in few hours Beef is also
declining but not quite rapidly. Leather is looking
little better, and although there no positive ad

Turpentine is few cents off this week. Paints and
oils show no change. Bermuda onions are lower and

A letter bearing the date of May 26, to the
Editor of the PRESS from Mr.. Edmund G. Sted.
man says, among other things:
Yesterday received a copy of the PRESS MAY
I6l with most delicious parody of atlanta in CAL
ydon. l was SO tickled with it that at once en-
closed it to Mr. Hurlbert of the World telling him
ought to be reprinted in New York paper. You
See that he agreed with me, and has brought it out
this morning, complimenting me by suggesting that
may be the author I-acish had been, but direct.
ly wrote to him that was not. Will you not now
state the name of the author in your paper saying
though wish were bright enough to write it don't
want any honors not belonging to me. You are for
tunate in your contributor, who mustn't hide his
light under bushel. never read better parody.
1t is inimitabe.
We are not permitted to give the name of the
author of the parody, whose articles are written
exclusively for the PRESS, and whose nom de
plume ATLANTA" is pleasantly familiar to our
readers. The following is the note in the
World mentioned by Mr.. Stedman;
A parodyis generally a bad thing; even a
good parody. But the parody of Swinbur ne,
printed on the fifth page of to-day's World, is
not only good parody, but a good thing.
There are many lines in it of which Mr.. Swim
burne himself would not need to be ashamed.
A parodist in the State of Maine who can do
this can do something even better, or at least
something very different But this is very excel
lent foolng, and has a sound as of true poet
taking his pleasure Can it be that our tropi-
cal wanderer Stedmau has been cooling him
self off in those high latitudes?
