The Connecticut Agricultural station.
In an article by Charles Barnard on Agri-
cultural Experiment Stations, appearing in
Sc,f6mer's Monthly for February. the follow
ing compliment is paid to the Connecticut
station at New Haven, which is under the
management of Professor Brewer, Governor
Bigelow being the president of the board of
control.
''The work of the Connecticut station is
chiefly devoted to the examination of COM
mercial fertilizers and plants, and the testing
and examination of seeds. It occupies rooms
in the Sheffield School in connection with
Yale College, but, unfortunately, it has not a
plant-house nor a single square foot of land.
In spite of this drawback it has done most
admirable work, driven out of the market a
great deal of fraudulent material, improved
the standing and character of the trade in
fertilizers, and saved the farming community
of that State many hundred times the few
thousands of dollars it has cost"

The story published this morning from

that Dutch officials accompanied by W. A.

there to arrange for his return to Holland, is
probably hugh canard. A reporter called

verifying the story. Mr.. Beach smiled when

said 81 haven't been in New Haven in so years

voice of mercy itself. Burns lives in sympa-
thy; his soul rushes forth into all the realms
Of being; nothing that has existence can be
Indifferent to him. OF all poets in our lam
puage, only Scott, and In few poems Ten
nyson, approaches Burns in minute touches
of description of nature; and neither of
these shows or has the power to awaken in
others, his love for it and sympathy with it.
Perhaps our own poet comes nearer to it who
SO truthfully and beautifully sung of Burns
Touched by his hand. the way-side weed
Becomes q flower; the lowliest reed
Is clothed with beauty gorse and grass
And heather. where his footsteps pass,
The brighter seem"
Connected with that minute observance
and sympathetic love of nature which char
acterizes the poetry of Burns is that wonder
full knowledge of and power of expressing
the feelings of the human heart, which gives
| it a yet greater charm. Every feeling and
passion which the human soul is capable of
experiencing is expressed by him so simply,
| SO accurately and SO sweetly or powerful
| ly that the owner at once recognizes it as his,
and is ready to adopt the poets expression of
| it as better than any other that he can en-
ploy. The passion of love, especially, in all
its phases and contradictions and perver-
sions and attendant moods and feelings, and
| in all its relations to sex, society, home,
| friendship, nature, God, is treated with
masters hand. And the special charm of the
/
innate nature, he deals in minute and delicate
touches. He does not indulge in generali-
ties; he expresses little passing flashes of
moods of feeling called up by this or that cir
| cumstance or association. Burns is not alone
in this it is characteristic of Scotch lyrical
| poetry 1 should like nothing better than to
show you, if had time, how the poetry of
Burns is not. as it is SO often considered,
an almost miraculous manifestation of
| genius in surroundings most unlikely
to produce it, but is rather the natural product
and supreme blossoming of tendencies else
where manifest in the whole Scotch people,
and to trace, as might easily do, every char
acteristic of the poetry of Burns to its natu-
raj source in the temperament and education
and circumstances of the poet, and the still
more remote tendencies, traditions, educa-
ton, literature, religion, political history and
natural scenery of Scotland. From this of
| course, must turn back. But. as an illus
tration of more than one of these remarks,
let me present quotation from song writ
ten before the time of Burns-one of the
sweetest songs in any language. It is put
into the mouth of an old woman who has just
been told that her long husband has
returned to thetown and will soon be at home
