"Unkuown." in Literature.

In looking over the index Of a leading
literary magazine for a dozen years
many names will be found of those
who have written three or four articles
and that is all that we know about
them. The articles are good and
worthy of the place given them. 1t is
l think, safe to say that the realrewards
of literature have been gained by the
unknown persons who are authors OF
these articles, Each Of them proba
bly, seemed to himself to walk upon the
atmosphere when first accepted each ol
them had a following of personal
friends, and perhaps relatives, who val.
ued the authorship of these articles
very highly. The boy above mention
cd who received his first literary i'm
pulse from hearing the magazines read
in q lumber shanty, is one Of the "un-
knowns;" but his business acquain :
tances in the city and his backwoods
friends all regard the fact that he is
the auther of few simple sketches
which reached so high place as the
brightest success of his life. Years OF
hard and prosperous work in an hon
orable calling are overlooked, or t..
ken as a matter of course, while this
trihing literary success is regarded as
somehow remarkable achievement.
On visiting his college, after an absence
Of years, he found that the college
officers and his old friends returning
on Commencement Day knew nothing
of his business life, but were well aware
of the sketches, and congratulated
him upon their success. The amusing
side of this friendly following was seen
when a comrade Of the old magazine
days in the lumber shanty sincerely hes
itated to claim acquaintance with one
who had grown SO great with his pen
There may be literary people who
will scof at these things but | am
persuaded that those who bear the
really great names in letters will always
look with kind and tender interest
upon these little regulations of which
| am writing. Doubtless the great
writer's remember the time when their
hopes budded. and their literary labor
was inspired with grand enthusiasm.
| think they fondly remember the free
dom of being an unknown,

tFrom the June Atlantic.
As the birds come In the Spring,
We know not from where;
As the stars come at evening
From depths Of the mir;
As the rain comes from the cloud,
And the brook from the ground;
As suddenly, low or loud,
Out Of silence a sound;
As the grape comes to the vine,
The fruit to the tree;
As the wind comes 10 the pine,
Aud the tide to the SEA;
As cong oho white sails Of ships
Der the oceans verge; .. .t
As comes tho smile TO the lips,
~ The foam to the surge; m
SO come to the Poet his songs,
All hittcrward blown
From the misty land, that belongs
To the vast Unknown.
Ills, and not his, are the lays
lie sings;-and their fame
Ia his, and not bls;-and the praise
And the pride of name.
For voices pursue him by day,
And haunt him by night,
And he listens, and needs must obey.
when the Angel says: "Write!"

took the place of all precedents and
tho Democratic house Of representa-

since condemned Mr.. Tilden for not
doing that which ho could not do--an
illegal act-passed the law taking the
matter out of his hands. He had
nothing to do with it aud now they
blame him for not buckling on his
