The truth is that language has a use
beyond the mere representation OF the
ideas it conveys. There is desire for
interchange of good fellowship and a
necessary outcome of heartiness and
friendliness which ranks, perhaps, even
a little higher than the communication
of mathematical truths or the most
erudite commentaries on the most alb
struse classical difficulties. This idea
of language, as a means of expressing
a general phase of mind, and not a
special sentiment. will be very intelli-
gible to "A person who may have walked
through country the language of
which is unknown to him. a traveller
in NORWAY or Sweden viii find that the
peasants salute him on the road, and
that he invariably wishes them GOOD
speed" or Good day" The idea IS
very general. and his own language
serves for its expression. though he
knows that, so far as the language goes
(as distinguished from the intonation
and the gesture), it conveys no intelli-
gible idea. Light conversation has its
uses, and every foolish remarks often
have more wisdom in them than savants
think. AT least, they certainly have
more nature. 1t is well in these DAYS
to consider what may be said in prsise
of loquacitv. and not to allow the aifec-
tatiOn of silence to carry off all the
prizes of wisdom. We may some-
times learn things from nature
that we cannot find in books, and
her teaching has at all events the merit
of having been tested by the centuries.
II silent men are generally introSpect-
i've. and if this kind of introspection
leads to gloom. there may be a wisdom
after all in talkativeness. Stearne de-
scribes how he wanted to get pass
port to Paris, and describes himself as
the Yorick who figures so pathetically
in Hamlet" The French nobleman,
getting little confused as TO the Differ
ence between real life and dramatic
literature, at once applied to the Min
lister and got the passport made out in
terms as for "Mr. Yorick. the Kings
JESTER" the Minister observing AT the
time that a man who talked and
laughed could never be dangerous. We
feel instinctively the truth of the OBJ
servation, and when we meet a chatty
man, we set him down as good-natured
and kind-hearted. And vet most of
what he has said might take its place
under the alarmingly long list of what
are truly called .'foolish remarks"
But for him they have not been foolish.
They have supplied him with creden-
tials rs effective as those OF the King
Jester, and have sent him forth on his
Journey throuuh life with a cOncilia-

Silent People.

WE have all heard the description
which compares talkativeness with re-
serve, and the utterance of opinions
with the rare power of Withholding
them. The precious metals have been
called in to assist smile which estab-
fishes the relations of speech to silence
as that of silver to gold. The authority
OF the Swiss proverb is supported by
the well-known dictum of Napoleon,
that the world lies ut the feet of the
man who is able to hold his tongue.
Things that are highly priced are gen.
orally rare, and from all that is said in
praise of reticence it might seem that
silent people are seldomto be met with.
And yet the least reflection proves that
they are common enough, and certainly
more plentiful than agreeable. The
German proverb and the Napoleonic
dictum must both be taken with a GER
tain degree OF reserve, and it is safer to
trust to general experience than to pin
ones faith TO an aphorism. Still waters
do indeed run deep, but man is the
only animal-except a monkey-who is
not born a swimmer, and noisy
stream is often better than treacher-
Gus pool.
The point. however. which requires
10 be more insisted on is that Napo-
leon helmet has truth which people
do not suspect or admit. Taleyrand,
in comparing Metternich with Mazarin
is diplomatist, said that the Austrian
told lies without deceiving people,
whereas the French statesman circum-
vented his opponents without telling
any lies And so ii is with silent peo-
pie. They often get character for
wisdom by not announcing THEN follv
The depth Of these still waters is moral.
not material. Ii consists in their ca
pacity to seem deep by being merely
turbid. \ ripple on the face of them
might show how very near the pebbles
at the bottom lay 10 the surface.
Silence with them is golden, not be-
cause speech would reveal them to be
silvern, but because it would show
them to be zinc, or at least pinchbeck.
The lions skin did well enough on the
donkey till he began to bray. From
this point of view the silent man takes
his rank. and that high one, amongst
the classes who govern not by their own
merit but by the credulity of their OPP
ponents. II is easier for them to saw
nothing than TO say something wise or
TO unsay something foolish.

widow, was young and pretty, and pos
sessed the additional attraction of a
large fortune. She went TO live in Paris
several years ago. and could not escape
the love which is there commonly be-
slowed on American heiresses. Juan
Narcisse de Francisco Martin. connected
with one of the foreign diplomatic
corps, was the successful sutton. They
were married last summer. But the
bride. mindful of the fact that the law
in France does not give the wife exclu-

important agreement drawn up for the
