HANDWRITING OF FAMOUS MEN.

Sometimes half dozen engravers are en-
gagged in rendering an artists drawing of a
single object which, when finished presents
to the Impractical eye one uniform style
Nevertheless practiced eye can discover
where each individual engraver's work leaves
of and where that of every one of the rest
begins. In handwriting, as in other arts
and in literature, the style is the man.
For all that, the evidence of handwriting, as
of style generally, is not to be relied or
when mems lives and liberty are ut stake.
Still less can character be judged from hand
writing. Brave men may perpetrate a timid
scrawl, generous and high-minded men may
write mean hand, and towards produce a
bold and flowing script Person, the great
Greek scholar among the untidiest of stu
dents, wrote neatly and elegantly. Crom-
wells writing, though large, is shaky
Shakespeare's signature is not particularly
clear Napoleon Bonaparte wrote illegibly
it is said, purposely, to hide his bad spelling.
The handwriting of the tortuous-minded
Charles I. is as clear and striking as that OF
Thomas Carlyle is Grabbed and indstinct.
On the other hand Queen Elizabeth's writ.
ing is magnificent. Edgar Allen Poe wrot,
beautifully, and with scarcely On erasure /;
whereas the manuscripts of Charles Dickens,
to be seen in the Forster collection at South
Kensington, are rugged and full of altera-
tions and cancellations. Many men write
large or small, in characters boldly or weak
ly formed, according to the humor of the
moment. Again, handwriting depends for
Its style on the school in which it is applied.
The manuscript of Byron, of Thomas Camp
tell, and of Thackeray, may be called the
literary hand. 1t is uniform in color, small,
and fairly legible, but without superabun-
dant curve or flourish. The great mass
of ''copy which passes through the hands
of a modern printer is more or less Of the
same character, A commercial hnnd, as it
is called, is something quite different. Given
an envelope addressed by city clerk, and
one from the hand of university professor,
and it is well-nigh certain that the former
will be more distinguished for elegance and
clearness than the latter. Again, the writ.
ing of the rustic and uncultured class is so
much alike as to defy differentiation. All
this goes to prove that the evidence of ex-
perts must be taken with the proverbial
grain of salt London Telegraph.

LOST IN A CAVE Fon Fonry Houns.-

LOST IN CAVE For FORTY HoURs. "A
romantic episode in the life of G. +. Har-
vey, who died recently, occurred in May,
1888, when, n few days after his marriage,
he was with his bride visiting at Mammoth
Cave, then in charge OF his uncle, Colonel
Frank Gorin He had been with a party
through the cave and when they were nearly
out he missed some article and returned at
once alone for it. Upon reaching the point
where he had left what he was in search Of
his light suddenly went out, leaving him in
total darkness, in which he CROPPED his way,
seeking egress, but without success. His
company and guards meanwhile searched
for him for about forty hours and then came
upon him. He was found utterly exhaust
ed, sleeping, but in a sad condition from the
exposure and mental strain. 1t has been
thought that his feeble health for many
years past was the result of this terrible ex
perience. - Louisville Courier-Journot

WHITE CATS AS DANGER SIGNALS. In the
Conway (Ark.) Democrats story of rail
road accident it is related that Mr. Hank
Woollum, who was engineer on the train at
tho time young Willett was killed, said that
almost since he began railroading, or when.a
mere youth, he had been warned by all road
men that the sight of a white cat at night
was always IN infallible signal of danger.
Mr.. Woollum tells us that he has never seen
one till upon this occasion, when he and his
fremen had coanted four, and upon getting
into this place that night no distinctly saw
another large white one cross the track in
front of him near Allinder's mill. The sight
of these superstitious visions had almost
caused him to leave his train at Morrilton.
The fifth sight wound up with the accident
occurring here, which resulted in train
mans death, as above stated.

POETRY.
DARKNESS.

Oh the woe, the unspeakable woe.
TO be dark in the midst OF light
TO hear our brethren come and go,
But never to own--never to know
The glorious boon OF sight.
TO feel by their ordor flowers are near,
While their tints connot bless tho eye;
The tinkling drip of waters to hear
To be told they're shl ming silver clear,
And have only heart TO sigh.
Think OF the crowd of beautiful things
That the poor blind eyes cannot see
The butterfly on its golden wings
The blithesome bird as ii scars and sings
The woods and the gllstening sea-
Think OF the pain that the heart must feel,
When the smiles that make glad the home
Are shut from sight with deathly seal
An aching sore that no time can heal,
Where no light or hope can come.
Holdeth fair Nature higher bliss
Than to see the forms we adore,
And the sweet, sweet lips we love TO Kiss?
Hath life a drearier woe than this
That we cannot behold them more?
Oil Christ, who opened the eyes OF old,
Be a light to the darkened eyes;
In mercy within that veil unfold
Something far better than earthly gold,
Or the glow OF Summer-lit skies
