Something NctU about Uncle Tom

A new reporter from the wild and
bounding West came along last week full
of hope and New Mexico squadiente and
applied for work, The dramatic critic
was sick and the managing editor sent
the new acquisition up to criticise Uscle
Toms Cabin. He dropped in about II
O'Clock with the following: 'sThis new
and thrilling dzama was played for
the first time at the Opera house last
night after a run of one consecutive night
IN Harlem to an immense audience. The
drama lSfou 1ded on stirring incidents which
were unusually interes ting twenty years
ago, and would be interesting yet but for
one reason-they are not. It is very sad,
but it is a fact. The principal
characters in the play are some inoffensive
bloodhounds and very savage donkey.
the donkey chases colored lady across the
river full Office and water, but she succeeds
IN getting previous and making the fierce
anlnal quit subsequent The ice is not
real, but the bloodhounds and colored lady
are very lifelike. Uncle Tom is a nice cid
colored man, with voice like bass singer
IN coal hole and state of intoxication.
The heroine Is very dizzy little girl
named Eva, who becomes too fly for her
years, and goes up in the flies in the third
act and state of felicity. It is said the
alter managers charge troupes playing this
drama double rent, because everybody cries
SO much that the carpets are ruined. It is
very elevating drama and somewhat cheer
full in some parts, especially that part when
tbs curtain: goes down on the last act. The
actors have played their parts SO often that
they die very naturally. Some critics say
that the saddest part of the play is the
thought that the actors do not really die.
Uncle Tom is not really colored mau.
He was born in Ballynaslough, county
Kerry, ana is therefore German.
but he has the dialect down fine and kee Dc
up his end.

Matthew Hale Smith wa. writing letters
to the Boston Journal over the signature
of "Burleigh." Smith wrote dstestabls

making tho so,'nol jump with his activity,
enterprise and iberality, was very near his
match in this particular. One day a com
Positor came down to Mr.. Rogers with
some of Burleigh's 'copy," saying that if no
had got to SGT that sort of stuff they'd have
to pay him by tho hour, because he could
not make his salt setting by tho thousand.
Rogers Immediately wrote Burleigha note,
telling him that if he couldn't write so that
his letters conld be read, he had better
either quit writing or get somebody to do
his writing for him. In q day or two there
arrived an envelope with Rogers signature
cut out from the letter and pasted upon it,
and "Cars Boston .journaL written beneath
Upon being opened it read as follows:
Dear Sir-I have received letter which,
from the printed heading, assume to be
from the Journal Office. IF you will get
somebody that can write legible hand to
inform me whom it is from, and what it is
all about, shall esteem it favor. Yours
truly Matthew Hale Smith," The next time
Mr.. Smith came to Boston he was handsom-
" entertained and Charley Rogers paid
the bill.

One of the Detectives Who Searched for
Charley Ross on Her Track.
MILWAUKEE, Dec. PA man calling
himself McCallum, claiming to be depu-
ty sheriff from Jacksonville, Fla, came to
the city to-day and consulted with the
chief of police regarding Maggie Hen
necke. Both remained in close consul:a-
ton for some time, and nothing dsfnite
can be learned about the matter under
discussion. McCallum claims to have
been active in the Charley Ross case and
having been on the right track when his
efforts were frustrated by one of the
abductors being shot on Long Island. He
will not vouchsafe whether he has any clue
to the Hennecke girl, but his coming a
great distance on his own expense is
thought to be significant. The father of
the girl refuses to give information re-
garding McCallum's visit.

ESTIMATED at 81 per cent. above enrolment.
We have, then, about 100000 pupils en-
rolled, cut of school population of 316,-
600. OF those enrolled, it is estimated
that 90 per cent. attend so shortSa time
that the. are not benefited in any >appre-
ciable degree; and, of the school pcpula-
ton, about one-third should be deducted
for those who are over sixteen, and may
properly be engaged in some industry for
a livelihood. We have, then, about 5000
pupils in school getting common school
education, out of about -21O, 900, who ought
to be there. In other words, about a per
cent. Of our youth are losing the ,oppor-
tunity OF an education as provided by the
state.
The reports of county superintendent
continually refer to this neglect of the peo-
pie, and frequently they counsel the enact
ment of a law for compulsory attendance.
This is theoretically just, but. until we
teach better, and teach longer terms, we
shall doihest to give our first attention to
the improvement of the schools.

school houses built in the state as follows:

The Netr Colossal Statue for Germany.
London Builder
The great national statue of Germania.
which is to be erected at MEDIEVAL, near
the Rhine, to commemorate the victory of
Germany in the last Franco-G German war,
is now being cast in separate pieces at
Munich, The head and several other
parts have already been completed. Some
idea of the magnitude of this work may be
gathered from the fact that the total
weight of the metal in it will amount to
not less than forty-fve tons. In the
work of casting and finishing as many as
fifty men are often employed at one time.
The largest single portion of the statue
the throne with cleak lying on it, the
whole weighing fifteen tons-has Just been
cast. The blade of the sword, which alone
weighs ton, and which, enveloped in an
oak garland, has been cast separate, is also
finished. Other parts of the monument
are being cast at different establishments
in other cities. Thus, the figures of the
Rhine and the Moselle, to be placed at the
foot of the pedestal-the latter is itself
eighty feet high-are being executed at
Dresden; the relieves are being prepared in
Berlin, the great imperial eagle at LAUGH
hammer, and the allegorical figures of War
and Peace at Nuremberg.

Among BONner'S Horses.
The famous horses in Mr.. Bonner's Tar.
rytovn stables are several that have the
interest of relics. Wandering dejectedly
about tho pasture on sunshiny days, with
the blindness of old age in her eyes and
her muscles stiff with rheumatism, is Flat
bush Maid, who in May, 1862, trotted with
Lady Palmer two miles on the Fashion
course in 5:o14. She is now thirty years
old. Dexter is in his twenty fourth year,
and has aged in appearance and gait con-
siderable since he astonished the world by
doing mile in 2:171a5, and upset popular
faith in the old rhyme:
"One white foot, buy him,
Two white feet, try him;
Three white feet, look well about him;
-Four white feet, so on without him.
Rarus, who has trotted six seconds faster
than the old favorite, and little Mamie B.;
who has trotted a quarter in thirty-two
seconds, are his stable companions.

PRINTERS ERRORS,
n Defense of the MsscI--4b,ssed "Issselligent
COmDosifOr."

A Defense of the MucIt-44bmsed "Intelligent
COmpssitOr."
Some one writes as follows to The Chris
tia~ World, of London: In your last
saw what regret to say, is common to
nearly every newspaper than one
correction of errors, accompanied with
the remark (now stereotyped) Printers
Error" trust that may not be con-
sidered presumptuous in saying word in
defense of the great army of typographist,
whose apparent ignorance is SO frequently
exposed in public. One error pointed out
in your last issue was sht.t Of iile name OF
a reverend gentleman which had been
printed Lemon" instead of "Semon."
If, in such case as this, the original
copy" were referred to, the capital let
ter would, no doubt, be found written 80
nearly like an "a" that no compositor,
unless he were veritable English direct
DRY to himself, would have been able to
distinguish the difference. More correct
would it be to say, not printers error" but
authors illegibility." Some writer's liter
ally take Mark Tw&in's sarcastic advice,
'Don't write too plainly. Avoid all pains
taking with proper names. We know the
full name OF every man, woman and child
in the United States" Then, too, some of
our authors pander to the practice of
quoting foreign phrases. The writer's may
know several languages; but they ozght
not to expect that compositors are lin
guists, or that they have received cole
giate education. Some have by dint of
their own perseverance acquired knowl-
edge of some of the living and the dead
tongues, but this ought not to he pre-
suned, as rale. If a Latin or French
quotation be misprinted, the ignorance of
tho printer is paraded before the public.
It is not, sir, es you can testify, that the
average printer can not produce his au-
thor's mind; the fact is that too many of
our gifted writer's can not write. They
scribble; and what is usually of the great
est importance is indited in the proyerbial
spider and ink" style. Whatever be the
subject of his author, whether inguistical,
scientific, axgumentative, theological, po-
litical, social. or economical, the printer is
expected to understand it all; for, unless
he understand it it may be full of sprint
er's errors." But, beside this, he has often
literally to'translate, by tedious ciphering,
the handwriting placed before him, and
this is sometimes as difficult an art as to
make out the meaning of the hieroglyphics
of Cleopatra's needle. A word to the wise
is sufficient. That word, Mr.. Editor, I
would respectfully suggest to authors, is:
'Hear the other side" will not trouble
the compcsitor with the Latin.

The Late Arch sssn.p on Ri..a,ss~..

The late Archbishop TAFT thus expressed
his views on Ritualism not long ago: II
am not surprised that many members of
the church of England should feel indig-
nant at practices and doctrines which have
in some places sprung up during the last
twenty years, having q manifest tendency
to assimilate the worship and teachings Of
our pure, scriptural, and Reformed church
to the system of the church of Rome. But
cannot in any way agree with yen in the
belief that this evil is owing to supinensss
and apathy on the bart of the bishops.
You must be we'll aware that the benefited
clergy of the church of England are not,
like the priests of some portions of the
church of Rome, dependent for their posi-
ton on the arbitrary will of their bishaps,
nor, like some dissenting ministers, 1lble
to be removed by vote of their congrega-
ton, or of the heads of their community. I,
for my part, whatever disadvantages may
follow from this freedom of tho clergy, re-
joice that it is secured to them, and that no
clergyman Of the church of England can
be renewed until he has had fair and
open trial before q competant tribunal, in
which his violation of the law of the church
has been legally proved. Iagree with what
presume is your wish, that the points at
issue might, as the ritual commission has
suggested, be decided in some less expen-
sive and more expeditions manner, and
have always expressed my readiness to as
sist in improving our legislation in this d.
rection. But cannot attribute blame to
those who, while the legislature has shown
no disposition to trust the bishops with
great authority, have thought it their duty,
however much their patience has been tried,
always to act according to law, and not to
seek some arbitrary mode of crushing those
whose opinions they disapprove, when such
power is not conferred upon them either
by the church or the law of the land.'

French Spolsattess U.ainss.

Tho Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette says: s'The French
spoliatioR claims, after having been be-
fore congress for eighty years, have once
more been favorably acted upon. The
senate to-day passed bill relating to this
subject, but 1t is very different bill from
that which the supporters of the claims
have desired. With the advance of years
the claimants have been more modest.
The amo1ut of their claims ranges accord
ing to different computations from $780,
600 to $20,OOO,OOO. During all these
eighty years they have constantly endeav-
ored to obtain direct appropriation from
congress for the amount of the claims.
They have been more modest or more prac-
tical. They now ask that the subject be
referred 50 the court of claims for an in
quiry as to the law and the facts. That
they obtained in the senate. The bill
which passed gives the court of claims
jurisdiction to investigate the law and the
facts, and to report to congress. An
amendment, however, was adopted that
the judgment Of the court should be only
of an advisory character. A formidable
list of great names is marshaled in sup
port of these claims. Doubtless at the
outset they had intrinsic merit and should
have been :adjudicated by the congresses
that were familiar with the facts and
which were nearer to the historical trans
actions to whioh they relate. In the Sc
nate to-day, too, some of the best and
purest men advocated these claims, and
believe in their strict justice. Frye, of
Maine, and Hoar, of Massachusetts,, than
whom there are no purer men in congress,
were foremost in their advocacy of this
bill. But even Frye admitted that the
evidence upon which these claims
ere based has much of it disap-
psared. He referred to the case of
enc old shipmaster in Maine, who had lost
vessels, but who had not q sheet of paper
and probably no oral evidence to prove his
claim. These claims even to greater ex-
tent than the Alabama claims are undoubt-
edlg in the hands Of speculators. For more
than one generation one old man. Causten,
was the owner of large portion of these
claims and the agent for most of the rest.
Years ago he died; yet about the capital to-
day an old man, almost as old as Causten,
was listening as eager as his deaf ears
would permit to the action of the senate on
the bill. At the end he asked what the vote
was, and what its effect would be, and his
face was the one bright face in the gallery
when the result was known. He is said to
be the survivor of the venerable Causten,
and to represent large portion of these
claims. The bill which has passed tho
senate has abundant safeguards. and if it
should pass the house there could be ne
money paid upon any judgment the court
might make, but there is little probability
that this ancient claim will pass the house
1T this session.
