We regret exceedingly to ask this question: which
seems to reflect upon the honor of one who at a
single bound has placed himself at the head OF
American hght-etter writer vindicators-with
boomerang attachment But stern sense of what
we owe to literature compeis us 10 do so. Far be
il from us to lnslnuate that we regard Dir. Rogers
as a plagarist We insnuate nothing of the kind.
But Mr. Rogers has dedicated the third edition of
his poems to Acknowledgement Garland and in the
course of this labor of love and admiration he
speaks OF that gentleman as follows:
Garland IA . a trihe too HamiltOnian for the
author and other pro rustan Democrats, but pure
patriotic wise conservative. 50 learned that ne
within sharp constitutional lines giving IL Huihcirnt
elasticity 10 embrace In any emergency the general
welfare. aud Leave Mr. Cleyelaud'S name. for coming
ayes side by side with Justinian and Edward l.
Now. this obviously is mastery-at least 2s
carats fine. But is 1t originaIi We--or rather tine
cxactmg public-wil suspect not The readers Of
Dickens are sure to say: ooh, that gorgeous com
pliment TO Garland didn't originate with J. Webb
Rogers. II originated with Mr.. Tigg in Martin
Chuzzlewit.' and was first applied by rigg to his
friend Chevy Syinc." We have taken the trouble
to turn to Martin Chuzzlcwit" and fnd-the
truth must he told-that the point made by the
readers of Dickens Is substantially well takenl
True. Mr.. Tigg's celebrated tribute to Mr. Chevy
slime Is not precisely Identical with Mr. RogerEs
TO Mr. Garland although it is obvious that the
former served as a model
What Tgg said was thus: You are the American
aloe Of the human race. my dear Chcv. which only
blooms once in a hundred years. On mature re-
Fiction II may strike Rogers that he owes Iigg

SOME YACHTING LESSONS.


Before Captain Carter takes the famous
mermaid Gencsta away from us, it is becoming
that retrospective glance should be given at
the superb series of Yachting contests i'll which
she has been one of the principal actors. In the
hold of his yacht Captain Carter has large
box filled with the greater newspapers of this
country, chief among which are the journals
of this metropolis and of Boston and Philadcl-
phia. Sir Richard Sutton has justly remarked
that he has never seen in any country such
detailed, accurate and candid descriptions and
criticisms of yacht race as those the Genesta
will take home with her as memcntoes of her
splendid defeat and her brilliant victories. 1t
will crafty him to observe that nowhere in all
these volumes of comment will be found any
serious reflection on the handling of his dainty
cutter.
Throughout all the races the Gencsta did her
best She had not been a week in these waters
before TIE TRIBUNE pointed out to the owners
of our champions that they must not base any
hope of victory on the mistakes of their rivals.
The English racing crews are excellent, and the
members of this one have proved their capacity
in all nautical conditions without subjecting
themselves to a single reasonable challenge.

The Republican and Democratic Judiciary
Conventions Of Brooklyn have done well in re-
nominating Justice Joseph F. Barnard of the
Supreme Court. This emphatic Endorsement
by both parties is deserved compliment to an
able. upright and faithful Judge, and renders
his reelection certain. The disposition to di-
vorce politics from nominations for positions
on the benches of our chief courts is thoroughly
pralseworthy. Two precedents for such action
have been set in recent years, Judge Brady
in NewYork and Judge Pratt in Brooklyn
having received the united support of both
parties. Judge Barnard is a Democrat aud
has already served two terms.

less it behooves Republicans to make the best
possible nominations and present united front
