Matthew Arnold, poet, scholar, critic. To
him is attributed, and probably with
justice, the distinction of being the
most cultured Englishman of his time.
) Xty-onc years old and son
of the celebrated DR.. Arnold of Rugby, his
whole life has been spent in the most intel
lcctuNl aud cultured circles e! England and
Europe; and his name is a synonym of the
highes, culture. The work lie has done is
of thr,e-fold aspect, and has to do with
literature, with education, and with religious
thought As to the first he insists that it is
the function Of literature to diIusc "sweet-
ness an.l light; and, vigorously attacking
turc, he has made an earnest plea for the
lOftics and finest culture in the widest sense
OF the word-a plea which has had immcus.
ullucuCt for good on 10 Ii sides of the ocean,
In behalf of education, Mr.. Arnold made IL
pains,aking investigation of the school sys.
tenn of the Continental countries and wrote
one or two valuable Lo1ks-b00ks which
had considerable Influence here, but less in
England, where educational and humanita-
riln clJr. is greatly embarrassed by the de-
pressed condition Of the lower classes and the
Indifference Of the upper. In theology, it is
urged in behalf of Mr.. Arnold that he
found the English mind hdc-bound with
dogmis IN intellectual conceptions which
forced and froze all the vitality and warmth
out OF religion, and ctamorphoscd the
Bible to mere arsenal proof texts; and
lie met this hard intel ectualism with new
plea for rightcousncss-wit a declaration
that the object OF all Bible teaching is con.
duct, AN! conduct that draws its IMPULSE
from spring of pure and generous feeling Ia
the heart and his bold championship of the
spirit OF the Bible, and VIII h. conceived to
be its religion, had u powerful effect on the
student and scholarly class there and here. +"
Such, very briefly stated, is an outline OF
Mr.. Arnold's lifcwork. That it has been a
most honorable ana crcditablc one goes with
out saying, Such u visilor-alboit he has
hitherto frankly criticised our county and its
insiilulions-wiIl be cordially welcomed in
America; and he is guest whom it will be
well worth while to Hospitality entertain.

Perhaps one of the prettiest spots in this
or any other STATE is the old and dilapidated
village of Hopcwel, situated as it is in q
cleft Of the Bull Run Mountains, embrac-
ing some 800 acres known as the "Hope-
welP' Valley, surrounded on all sides by
lofty eminences aud pyramids of stone. The
fertility Of the valley is proverbisl. Divided
among many small farmers, each maintains
for himself sturdy independence Thirty
years ago this village boasted of
stores, mills, tanneries, factories and
hotels, in yalur hundreds of thousands. To-
day scarce one store remains on another to
mark her former splcndor. But in tile place
OF art gentle nature las layished her every
charm; myriads OF flowers extend in every
direction, while the flying spray from the
falling cascades gives to them deicacy Of
perIumt aud brilliancy of appearance sur
passing description. The town attributes its
downiall-like unto that OF Sodom and Go
morrah Ito the wickedness OF its inhabit
ants. No stranger who valued his life dared
enter lis limits or pass its cortlLes, sc law
less were its people Nothing now remainl
Of this. Four years of civil strife swep
