ADous tno Genie Artists.

Philadelphia Press.I
Comic artists have not hitherto
been selected for honors by any
government, monarchical or repub-
lican. Nearly a century ago Will
liam Hogart6, who was a great
moral painter as well asa caricatur-
ist, having produced an amusing
picture called "The March to
Finchley," thereby incurred the dis
pleasure of George II, who object
ed to his soldiers being laughed at,
and expressed in strong terms his
dislike of "bainters and boets.'
Gilrsy, who lourished in the reign
of George III, so far from having
been honored for his genius, lived
from hand to mouth and died in
poverty. George Cruikshank,
who made all the world laugh
at George " as "the
dandy of sixty who bows with a
grace" narrowly escaped prose-
cution and punishment ~ifty-seyen
years ago, but was so fortunate as
to receive a small pension in his
later days out of the public treas
ury, in the name of Queen Victoria.
"H. b." the political caricaturist
of William ", was independent by
his pen, and the popular artists Of
Punch-Richard Doyle, John Ten
mel, John Leech, and others--are
content to live on what they make,
without caring for or coveting the
smiles or patronage of royalty. In
Paris the artist Of Chariyari, the
s~atirical paper on which Punch was
modelled, is an artist who signs
Cham" to his very clever draw
ings, having adopted this pseudo
nym on account Of the repugnance
of his father, a high and mighty
noble of France, to his adopting the
profession Of a csricaturist. "Cham''
is so excellent an artist that even
his rivals have frankly admitted
that he is worthy Of being honored,
as artists often are in France, by
some public distinction. On the
plan Of the barber in nicholas
Nickleby," the line has hitherto
been drawn so as to exclude comic
artists. At last, however, Paris
smiles over the official announce
ment hat "the Legion Of Honor
has just been conferred on the
Count de Noe, draughtsman, for
exceptional services" What, it
may be asked, has this to do with
"Cham"? The explanation is, Noe,
the French form of Noah, is the
artists family name, and Cham is a
Gallo substitute for Ham, SO that
his Charivari signature implied his
being disinherited, or at least in
disgrace. To such a man, so gifted
and so popular, the Cross Of the
Legion Of Honor must be Of little
value.

has gone into bankruptcy. Andrew Nc.
Kinney is jointly liable with HoJs
Hoyt's nominal liabilities are 81, G25, 900,
and his nominal assets s4d8, 900 Nc
kinney is jointly liable with Hoyt on
claims that amount to Sl,O40, 900. The
announcement Of the failure Of Hoyt
and the involvement Of Mckinney natu-
rally created excitement in railroad and
business circles, and exaggerated tp-
nors are in circulation,
Me-. Hoyt says the failure, although
looking large, is not SO important as it
seems. Nominal Liabilities of $685.
900, he continued, look large on pepper,
but wien this amount is reduced to a
comparatively small figure by substraot-
ing what has been paid or secured, bank
rupicy is not such q serious matter after
all. The fact is that Of the el,625.O OC
liabilities nearly 81, 100000 has virtually
all been provided for and in effect htiga

going into bankruptcy is a desire tC

The Invsn'ien of Punctuation.

The InVeuiiOn Of Punctuation.
Casselps Popular Educator.l
The invention of the modern
system of punctuation has been
attributed to the Alexandrian gram
marian Aristophanes, after whom
1T was improved by succeeding
grammarlans, but it was SO entirely
lost in the time of Charlemaone
that he found it necessary to have
1T restored by Warnerfried and AL
cuin. 1t consisted at first of only
one point, used in three WAYS, and
sometimes Of a stroke formed IN
several ways. But as no particular
rules were followed in the use O.
these signs, punctuation was ex.
ceedlngly uncertain until the enf
of the fifteenth century, when tb,
learned Venetian printers. thu
Manutii, increased the humber o
signs, and established some Gxet
rules for their application. Thes
were 50 generally adopted that W,
may consider the Manutii as III,
inventors Of the present method o
punctuation; and although moderl
g%rammarians have introduced SOM,
improvements, nothing but a few
particular rules have been adde,
since their time.

BLAINE II LAMAR.

Senator Blaine is a politician OF
the strictest and straightest sect
Outside of political exigencies be
has a big heart, and can be as fair
as any man. He made a bold strike
for the Presidency last year when
he made that terrific speech against
the amnesty bill. 1t was a cool
calculation on the prejudices of the
Northern people and the sensi-
tiveness of the South. The re-
Spouse which came from his
side showed that be understood hui
man nature and knew how to play
upon its strongest chords. That
speech was the keynote Of the Re-
publican campaign. Morton, the
author and proprietor of the bloody
shirt, ceased to figure in the main
show and fell far behind. Blaine
carried every point, except to be
nominated for President, although
he had more positive strength than
any other man in the Cincinnati
convention. His party was afraid
to risk its all in the one issue OF
antagouism to Jefferson Davis, and
Blaine's numerous rivals united
against him. Perhaps they were
right, for the strain and the pitch
to which Blaine had carried the
people in that one threadbare issue
would have broken down before the
election. Blaine was beaten for the
nomination, but was elected United
States senator from Maine for Sly
years. This seems to have Modified
his nature and satisfied him entire.

Lamar's admission to the senate
cannot fail to make a favorable i'm

has the appearance Of fairness at
least, and will pass for it with most
of the people. 1t proves that he
was not in earnest in his de.
nunciation Of Jefferson Davis and
the South-that it was a politica.
ruse to advance his own aims ant
ambition. We cannot point t.
such a man with pride and admira
