the heslthily distracting influences of an at
mosphere which stimulated wide sympsthies
and liberal views. As it is. we witness that
which the Greek philosopher called eoivaptio
opfimi pessima. Surrounded by genial and
favorable circumstances, he argued, Alcibia-
des would have made the model of n philoso-
pher king. The circumstanS es in classical
Athens were not favorable. and accordingly
Alcibisdes became the most incorrigible of
Hellenic rakes. The conditions under which
she lives have prevented the spoiled woman
from exercising her sympathies ON any one
except herself. In herself alone can she take
any genuine or sustained interest. Life, as
she considers what has been, and what is
about her, seems a phantasmagoria, in which
there is only one reality--herself. Men may
come and men may go; but she remains.
From her own point of view, the spoiled wo-
man would scarcely be justified in not acting
and talking as she does. She ought, at any
rate, to be gently dealt with for doing so;
and her critics should always remember that
when they meet with her in real life they en-
counter a character which had originally
great capacities for those virtues which make
happiness in families and confer benefits on
society; but which, blighted by inauspicious
shadows OF cruelty stunted in their growth,
degenerate, if not into dcformity, at least in
to weakness London World.

Mr.. Longfelow has been forced by illness
TO issue printed circular excusing him from
answering the numberless letters which he
daily receives, asking him not only for auto
graphs, but for all sorts of favors.
Messages were sent direct from New York
to Chicago, over 1000 miles of the New Mu-
tual Union wires, Wednesday, without re.
peater at any intermediate point. This is
regarded as great feat in telegraphy.
Miss Rachel Kirkwood, the daughter Of the
Secretary of the Interior, is vocal pupil Of
Professor Bischoff, organist at the Cong:eg
tional church. Washington. She, it is said.
possesses remarkably sweet voice.

IN MEMORY OF POE.

'ead at the dedication Of the monument 10 Edgdr
Allan Poe. at baltimore, Nor 10. 1878.
Cold Is the pGan honor sings
And chill is giory's icy breath.
And pale the garland memory brings
To grac, the iron doors Of death.
Fame's echoing thunders. long and loud,
The pomp of pride that decks the pail
The plaudits Of the vacant crowd
One word of love is worth them all
With dew of grief our ewes dim,
All, bid the tear of sorrow start,
And honor, in ourselves and him,
The great and tender human heart
Through many night of want and woe
His irenzied spirit wandered wild,
Till kind disaster laid him low,
And love reclaimed Its wayward child.
Through many year his fame has grown,
Like midnight, vast like starlight. sweet
Till now his genius fills u throne.
And homage makes his realm complete.
One need OF jnstice long delayed,
One crowning grace his virtues crave,
All, take, thou great and injured shade.
The love that sanctihes the grave.
And may thy spirit. hovering high.
Pierce the dense cloud Of darkness through,
And know, with fame that cannot die.
Thou hast the Worlds compassion too!
WILLIAM WINTER.
