Henry W. Longfellow.

The death of Longfellow is a severe
and irreparable loss to English litera-
ture, for he is almost the last of those
who have achieved renown and com
PEELED respect for American letters
abroad. Hawthorne, Bryant. Prescott,
Motley and Cooper have finished their
work. Whittier alone remains but he is
trembling on the threshold of the tomb.
About Longfellow's genius there is
but one opinion in the hearts and judg
ments of his countrymen. He stands
foremost as the only poet America has
produced who can rank with the great
poets of the English language below
Shakespeare, Milton and Byron. Euro
pean literature, especially that of Ger
many. had powerful influence upon
his literary work. OF English poets
Tennyson is the one he mostly resem-
bles, and vet there is little real similarity
between the two. His many transla-
tons from Spanish, German, Swedish,
Danish and Anglo-Saxon attest his lin
guistic and poetic skill His own works
have been translated into many Ian
guages, and a prominent English au-
thority has said of them, ION this side
of the Atlantic Longfellow and Wash
ington Irving are as we'll known as
Tennyson and Goldsmith" This is
strong but deserved praise.
In America his complete works have
enjoyed the largest circulation and it is
almost impossible to overestimate the
regard in which Tennyson has been held
by all the scholars and literature. More
than any other poet he secured the love
of the children of his fellow -countrymen,
of which sterling illustration was CIV
en- by the assembling of 5000 children
of the public schools of Atlanta, Ga, on
the last anniversary of his birthday, For
he TO them was the humber poet"
Whose songs gushed from his heart
As showers from the clouds of summer
Or tears from the eyelids start
To every lover of poetry wherever the
English language is spoken he was the
poet of genteneSs, sweetness and refine
ment. His work seldom suggested
strength or greatness, but in pure, sim
pie eloquence it has seldom been excel
led. Many may think "Evangeline" and
"Miles Standish' are the best Of his
works, but after several of his lyrics
contained in "The Voices of the Night"
and his Songs" which are perfect in
construction and beautiful with pen
sive sadness and humanity, the writer
believes that "rhe Song of Hiawatha"
will outlive others of his more preten-
tous works if for nothing else for its
peculiar construction and the soft, liquid
music of its quaint metre, which is like
the flow of water rising, ripping on the
pebbles" Surrounded by friends and
all the harmonies Of life he has lived a
long and beautiful life. He loved learn
ing, and the serenity of books amid
which and full of years and honors he
has passed on to join the Being bcaute-
Gus, and the people to-day mourn his
loss, and rejoice that he has entered at
the open door.
Farewell q Hiawathat
Thus departed lliawatha,
Hiawatha the Beloved,
In the glory OF the sunset,
In the purple pists OF evening,
To the regions OF the home wind.
OF the northwest wind Keewaydin,
To the islands OF the blessed,
To the Kingdom Of Poncmah,
To the land Of the hereafter.

The Leader Caldendar,

The LEADER is daily in receipt of
letters inquiring for the CALENDARS
which are yearly sent out from this Of
fee and have come to have quite a rep
utation for possessing intrinsic worth.
The usual supply for 1882 has been or
dered for several weeks but is not re-
ceiyed as yet. As soon as they come to
hand they will be mailed to subscribers
of the LEADER; and until that time,
of course it is impossible to comply
with these numerous request for calan-
dars.
The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1882-01-01

The LEADER wishes its patrons q
happy New Year.
During a time so long that its histo-
ry is almost a part Of the history Of the
city, the LEADER has been visiting its
readers in Cheyenne and vicinity. 1t
has seen many changes in the Magic
City and marked them. 1t was here
when the town was filled with the bus
tie and rush of a new mining town,
which subsidized and the town was left
for dead. 1t has seen its business cir
culation become stronger and firmer
until through a healthy normal growth
Cheyenne is experiencing a better and
more healthful state of trade, and bust
ness more active than ever before.
And what is more, looking forward,
prospects present themselves to view
which are brilliant in the extreme and
most encouraging. Surely 1882 will
prove a happy new year to Cheyenne
and Laramie county.
1t shall still be the aim Of the
LEADER to faithfully represent the
best interests of Cheyenne, Laramie
county and Wyoming. In doing this
it will continue to be a new paper.
Standing upon an independent plat
form, it will represent the interests OF
no man or set of men, but OF the COM
munity at large. During the ensuing
year the management of the LEADER
will make many Improvements in the
paper, being actuated not by the idea
of giving as little as the people will re-
ceive and be satisfied, but by giving a.
much as can be done.
In doing this the management feel,
it will continue to receive, as the
LEADER hes received In the past, tht
appreciation expressed in a most liberia
patronage, which, of course, is one
feature in the LEADERS Happy New
Year.
The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1882-01-01

1t has been the part of the LEADER
to record several important business
changes during the past year, and for
the first of the year, the first change
for 1882, the LEADER welcomes IL. s.
Oliver as successor of Col. L. p. Snow
in the large insurance business trans
acted by his office, in Cheyenne and
throughout the territory.
During many years past Mr.. Oliver
has given his entire attention to the
business he succeeds too, and it has
been largely due to his efforts that this
business has been 80 successful.
Hence it is but a change in name and
not in management, and while an i'm
portant one, the change will not be so
noticeable to patrons as might be ex-
pected. Mr.. Oliver has a hoste of
friends in this who wish him unlimited
success and the LEADER joins with
them. q
The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1882-01-01

On yesterdays east bound train was
a gentleman whose name has become
very familiar to newspaper readers, and
nearly always connected with extremes
Of censure or praise. This gentleman
was none other than Gov. Eli II. Muir
ray, of Utah, who took such a rad
ical stand against Mormondom and
against j. Q. Cannon as territorial
delegate, thus initiating the pre-
sent earnest movements against poly
gamy.
GOV. Murray is u large, well built,
fine looking man, social and pleasant by
nature, but not very communicative
upon the subject of his visit east. 1t is
gathered that his business in Washing,
ton, whittier he is going, is of some
considerable Importance, as he was
summoned there hastily by telegraph,
and an opportunity will be given him
to get in another blow against the
Polygs.

They WIN Build the Line.

Mr.. S. H. H. Clark, general manager
Of the Union Pacific railway company,
who has been in New York for several
weeks, arrived in Chicago a few days
ago en- route for Omaha. A reporter
inquired of Mr.. Clark If there was any
truth in the statement, frequently re-
peated of late, that the construction of
the Oregon Short Line will probably be
abandoned, Mr.. Clark said the state
ment was unfounded. On the con
trary, the company has no idea Of
abandoning the project, and is now
employing a large force in the construc-
ton of the road. The short line d.
verges from the main line at Granger,
S76 miles west Of Omaha, and is pro-
jected to be built northwesterly to Port
land, Oregon.
