About Arthur.

The Democratic papers, aided by some
Republican journals whose dislike of Senator
Conkling overrides good sense, object to the
nomination for Vice President made at Chi
cago because the nominee has been opposed
to the policy adopted by President Hayes in
the early years of his administration. From
Democratic standpoint the objection need
not be criticised, for it is legitimate politi-
cal trick. But Republicans, in view of the
history of the last four years, cannot reason
ably urge it. 1t should be remembered that
the policy of President Hayes was at the
first subject of angry strife, that for a time
it divided and weakened the party and
threatened dangerous consequences, and
that the contention was at last abandoned,
without proclamation of victory by either
contending faction, because the threatened
ascendency of the Democratic party menaced
the country. Republican forgot their quar-
rels and united in the face of great danger.
Both factions consented to cease the strife,
and neither came out winner. To revive
that old quarrel, just as we are going into
pllCHcu DdLllc, Is looIISu anu Wlckeu. we
cannot afford to do it. In contest where
all Republican interests must be combined
in order to succeed it is worse than useless
to ask whether candidate was Hayes
man or stalwart. That does not matter
now. The only question that need be put
is: Is he Republican? The admirers of
the present administration should remember
that the conciliation cannot all be on one
side, and that the support of the stalwarts
is as necessary to party success as is their
own. Gen. Arthur is a staunch Republican,
a man of integrity and high character and
great ability. The only fault that has been
found with him is that he in common with
many other Republicans has not been al
ways in sympathy with the course pursued
by President Hayes. But that disagreement
is over. We have big fight on our hands
now. When that is fought out we can
spare time to settle family quarrels. Just
now we must combine our strength and
keep the intruder from our doors, and the
assistance of Gen. Arthur and his friends is
vital. The Republican who helittles that as
sistance shows that he knows nothing of the
nature Of the campaign upon which we
have just entered.

Life and Writings of Henry Thomas Buckle.
By Alfred Henry Huth. (New York: d. Ap-
pleton & Co.; Portland: Hoyt, Fogg and Don
ham.) The admiration in which Mr.. Buckle
is held by the world of readers, will be sensibly
deepened by this excellent biography. A long
personal acquaintance and thorough sympathy
with the subject of the memoir fit Mr.. Huth
for his task of writing of man whose private
relations in life were as satisfactory and de-
lightful as his literary position, in the eyes of
the public, was high and prominent. His fame
was instant, but not perishable. He was thor
oughly conversant with the spirit of his times;
and he touched with rare power and skill the
topics which presented themselves for discus
sion. cit has become impossible" observes
Mr.. Hurh, ITO write any large historical work
without reference to The History of Civiliza-
ton in England" Buckle was born Novem-
ber "a, 1921; coming of family long resi-
dent in London. His ancestor, Sir Cuth-
bert Buckle, was Lord Mayor Of London in
1893. The young Henry Buckle was delicate
though fun-loving lad, devoted to the few
books which he elected for close friends from
the many which were supplied him-Shakes-
peare, Bunyan, the Arabian Nights and Don
Quixote were the rare spirits of his choice. On
one occasion having distinguished himself at
school by mathematical exploit, his father
allowed him to name his reward. ITO leave
SCHOOL, was his reply, and his wish was grant
ed. He was brilliant and intuitive, rather
than studious; and his parents seem to have
been both wise and sympathetic in their treat
ment of him. He became greatly interested
| in the newspapers of the day, and was particut
| larly excited by the discussions upon free
| trade, concerning which he wrote letter te
| Sir Robert Peel, though his boyish courage
| failed to send it. After his fathers death
| young Buckle travelled on the continent and
was an admirable linguist and an extraordina-
| ry player of chess and chequers, winning
games from the foremost professional players
In society, and as conversationalist, Mr.
Buckle was also ready and brilliant. During
these years which might, by their easy sue
cesses, have weakened the working ambition o.
less man-he was writing his great History
He considered that the civilization of thu
whole world was too vast a subject to be at
tempted by any one writer, and limited him
self to recording the progress of England
choosing that country because it was the on,
(which has developed with least interference
from outside" His theory that intellectual
progress was more influential in the forming
of nation than moral advance, was vigorous

NEW YORK Tribune: 1t is encouraging
to campaign with leader who takes off his
coat before going into battle. Perhaps some
of our readers will remember that Colonel
Garfield, in command of the Forty-second
Ohio, Fourteenth Kentucky and squadron
of Ohio cavalry, did this at Paintville, KY,
when he moved at the close of 1862, upon
General Humphrey Marshall. Upon going
he flung it so high in the air that
it lodged in a tree out of reach. A man
whose battle cry was eco in, boys; give 'em

much for his clothesas the fight grew hotter

l77S, Just after the anonymous publication of
Evellna; and Miss Burney gives very amusing
accounts OF the cat-and-mouse fashion in which
she played with her literary secret. Her letters
at this period are gay and girlish, though not so
graceful as they later become. The authorship
of Evelina was not slow of discovery, and was
followed by Cecilia. Miss Burney's talent at
tracted the attention of Queen Charlotte who
gave her position as her personal attendant
This office, which much gratifed Miss
Burney's father, was one of absolute
slavery, rendered doubly severe by the cruelty
of the Mistress of the Robes, Mrs. Schwellen-
berg This lady, being Miss Burney's imme-
diate superior in office, exercised the most ieal
Gus spite; and the reader can only wonder at
and admire Miss Burney's sweetness of tenn
per under the infiction. The Queen was kind
and considerate in her way-Miss Burney nev-
er speaks OF her but in terms of gratitude and
affe :tion-but she was unimaginative and little
thought how severe tax upon the strength of
young woman was this existence at court. 1t
IS needless to recount the varied incidents or
the bright and appropriate comments of Miss
Burney's diary at court-the memoir tells the
story, and Macaulay's notable essay reads be-
tween the lines and shows more clearly still.
the dullness and discomfort of the court and
the lovely temper of Miss Burney. Indeed,
whoever reads this delightful autobiography
should not overlook Macaulays acute essay,
for complete understanding of the subject

her to resign her position at court, and she re-
tired into private life. Not long after, she wa,

A Fort Missouri correspondent
FINISHES an account of Colonel Glib
son. fishing exploit in Bitter Root.
The Colonel, armed with a light
cane rod, to which was attached an
oiled silk line of less than twenty
four yards long, a leader OF single
gut, and quite a small hook, started
ont to the river, hating at point
about two miles below the post.
The water along the shore was COM
paratively shallow. Observing some
small trout jumping some distance
below and near the waters edge,
the Col. reeled out nearly all the line
so as to let his bait, grasshopper,
float down among them. In mo-
ment something took the hook and
sprily made off with it into deep
water. Then followed a most inter-
esting fight, lasting about half an
hour, intensified as it progressed to
sn almost painful degree. Tackle
and skiil--for the colonel is scien
tifc angler-were put to the severest
test. Finally the fnny opponent
was worried cut and the colonel
steered him to shore. Post Adju-
tant Williams and a drummer boy
who happened to be near " rallied on
she centre" and seized the catch by
the gills and rushed him up steep
bank, throwing him into field, the
colonel launched the rod after him.
You can imagine the excitement at
the post when the trout was found
to weigh nine pounds and to meas
ure thirty-one inches. Was not
that fish, sure enough "a truly
royal trout? Previous to this the
largest known trout caught by any
person in this section was one taken
by the commissary sergeant, which
weighed seven pounds. Larger
trout then these have been sent from
Jock, taken, however, by the 1ndi-
ans in fish baskets or traps, the
largest of which weighed thirteen
pounds and measured thirty-six
inches.

Curing FRUIT BY CoLD.-An eXper-
iment was made at foundry in
Placerville, lately, in fruit-curing,
by blast of cold AIR. In this expert
ment abou. a peck of sliced apples
were placed in u seive and subjected
10 a cold air blast for three hours
in the cupola furnace of tie foundry,
and the fruit is reported to have
been completely and beautifully
cured by the treatment, remaining
soft without the slightest discolora-
ton. We were about to say dried,
but cured is better word, for there
was none Of that hard, harsh, stiff
dryness about it which frequently
results by drying by sun-heat or
1ire-heat. The experiment was
most orat;fiing success, and, in our
Judgment. is fraught with results of
