A PLEASANT LECTURE.-The lecture
by Mr.. James T. Fields, last night, in
the Opera House, on "Alfred Tennyson,
the Man and the Poet" was well attend
ed. The audience being composed of
large portion of our people who have
literary taste and take an interest in that
which promotes education and refine
ment. Mr.. Fields, as a lecturer, does
not assume to be oratorical and appear
as eloquent and demonstrative. Yet in
his qniet and forcible style to the close
observer he is quite as eloquent as man
can well be in such citations. His style
IS eminently pleasing, and his audience
last night attested the enjoyment they
felt by the marked attention they paid to
catch every word, and by frequent ear
nest applause. Ia opening he eulogized
the English language and declared it to
be the best, and regretted that even in
New England, where it had been pride,
it had been neglected until it was no un-
usual thing to find bad English in the
pulpit, the courts and the legislatures,
and in Congress too. But here they had
been recently somewhat awakened by
the learned and eloquent addresses of
your own gifted and honored Senator,
who in his splendid address at Harvard
proved that he was complete master Of
the good old English. The beautiful
and handsome tribute to Senator Bayard
was complete surprise to the audience,
who expressed their delight in subdued
yet expressive applause. Mr.. Fields ex-
pressed his admiration for the old Eng
lish poets, and maintained that Milton,
Wadsworth, johnson, Scott and Shaks-
peare were undying names, and moth
ing in any language was superior tc
Shakespeare. In referring to "Alfred Ten
nyson, the Man aud the Poet,n whicl
formed the subject of the lecture, whom
ne had frequently met in his Englisl
home, he described him as tall, broad
shouldered man of great physical powe
and large head, denoting great menta
strength. He held that of the liyIn
poets TennYson was greatest, and sal
this was acknowledged by the learne
and great in his own country, as Miltor
Shakespeare and johnson had stood i
the past, so Tennyson occupies the fror
in the same halls, and is honored by tt
great people of that empire. We wi
not attempt to Gull out from Mr.. Field
lecture even few of the beautiful tril
utes he paid to the great poet, or
quote the fine citations made as "
would be sure to fail to do anything lii
justice, In the single hour the audien,
appeared to enjoy more pleasure than
aEY lecture within our remembrance
this city. Mr.. Fields lectures again t
night, as will be seen by reference to :
advertisement in another column.

not better soil or climate or society in

The Republican states that Gov. Coch-
ran had offered a reward of $500 for the
arrest of the negro VIM. Scott for an
outrage upon young girl on the 26th Of
October, four days before the Governor
had done so. Was this to give the negro
information to enable him to escape; OF
was it to cause some one to catch and
conceal the negro to get the reward?

The New York Sun thinks Gen. Ew-
ing, of Ohio, has got the bill to repeal
the Resumption Act securely imprisoned
in the morning hour an object of derision
to Its foes. So long as it stays there, the
resumptionists can easily prevent vote.
To extricate it, Gen. Ewing must either
obtain two-thirds vote for suspending
the rules-which he can't door start
afresh, report his bill over again, and
have it referred to the Committee of the
Whole. But this will mean free discus
sion and amendment, whereas his pur-
pose was to press the bill to a vote at
once. We hope there is enough of Dem
ocratic stuff in the chair to enable Gen.
Ewing to get his bill to vote when ne
cessary. There is no immediate haste
for its passage so long as there is a GER
tainty of there being enough friends in
the House to complete the work when il
comes up. We believe that its passage
will assist resumption, and that paper
will be at par with gold before 1870.

TEE silver dollar that has been so
iercely denounced by all the great papers
owned by bankers and brokers appears to
have more friends in Congress than was
supposed. Should silver be remonetized
and accepted as payment for duties to
the United States, the silver dollar, even
at its present weight, will go very nearly
up to gold, while the greenbacks will
60 to par in less than six months. The
Banking Committee of the House Of
Representatives is largely in faver of This
being done at an early day but the gold
brokers and private bankers may have
influence enough to delay the measures
and possibly defeat them in the Senate.
1t will, however, ultimately be done.

Neryous Prosfration.

Americans, like Ortogral of Basra desire
that the golden stream should be sudden
and violent, and in their anxiety to acquire
wealth, overwhelm themselves with the
cares of business, until their overtaxcd sys-
tens are broken down under the pressure to
which they are subjected. This il one pro-
life cause of nervous diseases so common in
this country. Another and probably agreater
one is the very general propensity to run
into excess in excitement and the use of
Liquors and tobacco, which soon ruin the
strongest nervous organizations. Such suf-
erers have more difficulty i'll obtaining re-
lief than almost any other class. DIR. RAD
CLIFFS SEVEN SEALS OR GOLDEN WONDER
is u sovereign remedy for all nervous affec-
tions. no matter how they were incurred.
The worst cases of nervous debility have
been cured with singular rapiiity by its use.
The SEVEN SEALS is purely vegetable COM
pound containing no poisonous or unwhole-
some ingredients, and acts directly upon the
nervous system.

A New Party Word Book.

With view to the enlightenment
of unsophisticated and, therefore, ire
quently puzzled perusers of party
outnoulings, London Punch has pre-
pared the following definitions and
explanations of some OF the chief
words and phrases in the verbal az
mory of the party controvelslallst.
The personal pronouns in these cases
will, of course, be understood to refer
to the person speaking or writing.

Nobody-Everybody who holds or
expresses opinions antagonistic to

pie arithmetical process, namely, by
subtracting the views of "Nobody"

Everybody" las before defined).
Common sense-The opinion com.
mon to all those who agree with us.
Patriotism-Oury views of the inter-
ests and duties especially the for
mer) of our country. Of this quality
we have, from the very necessity of
the case, an exclusive monopoly. A
claim to any share in it on the part of
Others may be described indiferently
as "blind philanthropy" "mischieve-
Gus misunderstanding" or "bigoted
fanaticiSm."
Blatant conceit-The impression on
the part of our opponents that they
have a right, equally with ourselves,
to opinions of their own.
Well-meaning but Misguided PEG

bic to depreciate but impolitic to
abuse.

cal evil.
Inverted Cnmmas-A mechanical,
but compendious and invamable-be-
cause werable-method of tacit

What sllrug is to che scandalmou
ger inverted commas are to super
fine critic.
