EMERsON's FAME.

The continuance of Emerson's fame
and power as an author will depend
upon the verdict of posterity as to
his art. No one can authoritatively
predict what that verdict will be-
But it is not presumptuous to discuss
the point and to give ones own con-
victions. 1t seems to us that Emer-
sons thoughts, expressed either in
prose or verse, are packed tight for a
long journey. Especially does this
seem clear with regard to this poetry.
Harsh and limping as much Of his
verse may be, there are lines. couplets
stanzas and whole poems that have
about them the flavor of Immortality.
Hating jingle, he sometimes stumbled
into discord-but for all that there is
no poet that has written on this side
OF the water who has produced SC
many lines of poetry not only weighty
with deep and novel thought, but
beautiful in form and texture-with
q beauty like Shakespeare, like Shell
ley whom he underrated), like Keets
When Emerson's line is good. it is
unsurpassably good-having a beauty
not merely of cadence, but of inner
intense, birdlike sound; the vowels
the consonants, the syllable are ex
quisitely musical. 1t may be said oil
Emerson as of Michael Angelo, when
he "deigns to be beautiful" how
piercing the quality of beauty

A TERRIBLE SPREE.

You're looking pretty fresh this
morning." observed the mananing
editor, as the religious editor strolled
into the sanctum, and put his feet up
on the desk to tie his shoe.
Don't feel very good.' growled the
religious editor. Il got off with some
of the boys last night, and we had a
racket; now your her me shout"
"Who was in the party?" inquired
the managing editor, enviously.
"a lot of clergymen were showing
stranger around" replied the re
ligious editor, stretching out full
length. 1--WE went from one church
to another to see how the prayer
meetings were getting on, and then
we called on several old fellows who
were too superanuated to get around
with us. They all set 'em up"
"Set up what?" demanded the
managing editor, rather startled.
Lemonade and biscuits and dough
nuts continued the religious editor.
by that time it was nine o'clock,
and all hands were getting excited,
and somebody said he knew man
who had cider in his cellar. After
we had downed a quart or two OF
that, we began to get reckless. So
we went to The house of one of the
brethren and sang hymns till half
past ten. 1 got notion how things
were coming out, and wanted to.jamp
the game; but they wouldn't have it,
and the most hilarious man IN the
crowd said if we could come around
to his house he would cut a pie.
That made 'em all fairly wild, and
away we went. After the pie we had
some more hymns, and finally, to wind
up the whole business, sent ont and
bought a watermelon. That busted
the racket. They got to throwing
seeds at each other, and they laughed
so loud that you could almost hear
them in the next room"
Anything else?" inquired the
managing editor, dryly.
NO." responded the religious
editor. "When we had finished the
melon we all went home, but you bet
some of those dominies have got a
head on 'em this morning.
Shouldn't wonder" assented the
managing editor. Sand don't sup
pose you feel much like work"
81 might be braced up to it, grin
ned the religious editor, with an eye
on the closet door.
And the managing editor pulled
out the demijohn and the religious
editor washed down the last recollec-
ton of the night before with a copious
draught of fourth proof forgetful-
ness.-IBrooklyn Eagle.

Every one who has travelled over
the Eastern Railway remembers the
dark and grewsome tunnel through
which the trains pass after leaving
Salem. The other day little girl,
who was travelling to Maine with her
mother, passed through it, and was
greatly awed and alarmed at the
blackness into which she was sud
denly plunged. "Oh, dear! where
are we going" she whispered, as she
closely clasped the maternal hand.
1--WE are going through the tunnel
replied the mother. There is no
danger" As suddenly as they had
dived into the gloom they emerged
into the sunlight again, when the
child asked. Mamma, what is a
tunnel?" "It is a hole in the ground
said the mother. The child looked
out of the car window with great
surprise and interest depicted on her
face, and said, "Then is this the bot
tom of the world?" She evidently
thought she had passed completely
through the globe, and was passing
through the country of the Chinese
or some other antipodal race.

A FREAK OF LIGHTNING.

Robert Claiborne. Postmaster at
Point Coupee, Miss, started down to
the river to meet an incoming boat.
When nearly to the boat he was seen
to fall to the ground suddenly be-
meath a white blaze of light that
lowered around him for an instant,
and two negro men at the same time
were hurled off their mules to the
ground. Those on the boat who
witnessed the phenomenon rushed
ashore, and almost at the same mo-
ment the two negroes recovered their
feet and came up to where Mr..
Claiborne had fallen. They found
him corpse, black as ink all over.
An examination of the body disclosed
the fact that the electric fluid had
penetrated the body in two currents,
penetrating the right and left breasts
respectively, and making two aper-
lures whore they entered, as bullets
would have made. The lightning
traversed his body, passing down his
legs and tearing off his shoes, hurl-
ing them to considerable distance
from his body. A lot of silver coins
in one of the pockets of his panta-
looms were melted and fused together
in an indistinguishabie mass. The
sun was shining in an unclouded sky
at the time the thunderbolt came
down. A phenomenon similar in its
fatality and strangeness occurred
some weeks ago by which two men
were killed under a tree near Bay st.
Louis, being struck dead by light
ming while the sun was shining.
Silver and gold coins in their pockets
were melted and blackened as in the
case Of Mr.. Claiborne.
