Victor Hugo.
French Political Leaders

trrencn Foiiticht Leaders.
 In 1870, Victor Hugo laborcd stead. fAs,ly against the plebiscite which Napo. icon had placed before the French peo. pie, and, in one of his letters. said tha, the Pleniscite was an attempt to render arsenic palatabie When the Franco. Pfussian war broke out, he urged the ladies of Guernsey to prepare bandages and lint tor the wounded, and to send half of those charitable stores to the Preach and the other half to the Germans.
 He rcsolutely remained in Paris during the siese He wrote almost necessarily He labored and suffered with the hum blest; his example was inspiring, and his words as good as deeds. He ~as one of the earliest to make a speech against the preliminaries of peace, apparently thinking that, as the Germans had lost their great opportunity for IeconciliA- ton after Sedan, it might be as we'll to fight the battle out. He resigned be. cause the members Of the Right" re- fused to listen to him on one occasion, as they had refused to listen to C iribaldl three weeks previous
 During the commune he stayed in Paris. At the close of the instruction he went to Brussels, and, in May, wrote letter condemning the decision of the Belgian government relative to the in- surgents. In h,s letter he publicly in- vited communist refugees to seek an asylum in his house. The Belgian min. istry thought this was compromising to the nations interest, and a royal decree required M. Hugo's immediate de- parture. Before he could go, his dwell. ing was besieged by furious mob, and he was rescued by the police with diff culty. He once more departed for Lon . don, as he had done when exiled before. He returned to Paris after brief absence
 To-day a serene old man, Hugo lives quietly and modestly in Paris, up three flights of stairs, in the Boulevard de Clichy. His fine, keen face, framed in a grizzled beard, his penetrating gaze, his earnest and concentrated manner, hardly allow one to believe tha, Victor Hugo IS nearly as old as the century. Few men at his age are as alert and vigorous, even though they have led far less exciting lives. He Is the ceAter of a brilliant society, which adores him he is univer. sally called Cher Maitre by the literary and artistic guild retains the charming efusive manners of the old school, put ting all the younger Frenchmen to shame by the excess of his gallantry, and now and then goes to Guernsey to hear the song of the sea, and to read his poems by the beach.

 The secretary said he did not want to appear to be trying to take advantage oi a poor woman, but if she would consent to sell the piano for Sloo he would gladly take it.
 Deacon Lambswool waS sure that she would be willing to sell it, and he took the responsibility of accepting the offer,
 But l can't pay you until after bank hours" said Mir. Bassest; say four o'clock"
 That won't do at all What pity, If had the amount would take.it over to her at once but & payment on my Brooklyn property has reduced me to my last dollar. l say, Captain Decker, can't you advance the money for the widow, and keep the ticket on security antil four o'clock

 Captain Decker went his way, glad that he had me, Deacon Lambswool, formerly of Mason.
 At four o'clock he called a, the secrc- tary's office, but the door was closed. and it was never opened again, to his knowl. edge.
 "Dan their pesky skins l" exclaimed Captain Decker, when it dawned upon him that he had been duped. "As soon as one of their tricks gets into the papers they start another, and there's no such thing as keeping up with them"

John w. Croker's Correspondence.
 In coming to see me Gas he ha done the day but one before, September z) he f,he duke had chosen to walk from the sta ton 10 our house, and without even a guide. He said he had found it a rough walk, and the ground intersccted in way he had not expected {; 90 l said to him {: |" It seems you forgot to guess what was at the other side of the hill" This was in aiiusion to circumstance which had oc. cured between him and me sdlne thirty years before. When travelling on the north road =e amnsed ourselves by guessing what sort of country we should find at the other side of the hills we drove up; and when l expressed sut prise at some extraordinary good guesses he had made, he said: "Why, I have spent all my life in trying to guess what was at the other side 0! the hill"
 had reminded him of this jsst as we were driving across the ravine that had impeded him, and he turned round to Mrs- Croker to explain 1t to her, adding :: All the business of war, and indeed all the business of life, is to endeavor to ind out what you don't know by what you de {; that's what l called guessing what was at the other side Of the hill'"
 He said the perfection Of practical war was to move troops as steadily and coolly on . 6eid of battle as on . parade. "Soult's fault was that, though great strategist, he never seemed to me to know how to handle the troops after the battle had begun"
 then told him what Cuizot told me of Lapnes having said that le plus grand general efaif celui que Ia canonnade fzisait mieux entendre, q que Ia fumee faisoit voir plus clair"

THE MODERN WOMAN.

IL. D. Ventura, in Boston Transcript1
 To tell the difference between the Euro pean woman and the American would be the same as to describe the atmosphere in the atmosphere. So if l dare to make a study of the modern woman 1t is because l believe that women are alike every where, susceptible to the same influences and having the same sensi bility and the same importance. Who can follow the modern woman in the development of her temperament and character The novel would seem to be an effective aid in this study, but it is hardly sufficient, because the novelists are in love with the oddity of a type and ignore the move ments of whole class. The socialist studies woman toe abstractedly, too theoretically, and so has no delicate ap. preciation of woman's daily practical life. Only physiology and psychology have made beginning in the study of the great changes which are going on in wo- mankind; but the public is still in natten- tive. Yesterday the phenomena of change were still slight and nobody noticed them 1; the excitement was working SC cretly and only manifested itself here and there. To-day the phenomena are more striking, and yet the people do not ob- serve them. Tomorrow, perhaps, the new woman will rise in all the precise evidences of her living form, in all the power of her mind, and then the people, amazed. ~ill ask themselves, "Who may this be? Who made her thus2"
 It is necessary to be logical and to un- derstand that woman feels the influence of modern thought, science and art just as any other intelligent being does. She feels-as a man feels-the vast widening of the human horizon the understanding of life has become greater and stronger for her also her individual responsibility tortures her as it does us a new con science is born and asserts itself in her, a conscience made up of toleration for others and inHexibility for herself In- distinctly she sees old forms umsle away, and upon the ruins she sees the new structure of life lift itself into pure air. No activity of thought escapes her, and from it she receives lively impe- tus {; no agitation finds her indifferent. From the poets song, from scientific from popular uprisings, from works of art-from all sides the grand development of modem intelligence of course reaches woman.
 She does not dwell apart nowadays, but in life full and complete; moreover she sees what men do not notice her sight penetrates where theirs does not reach; she understands words hardly pronounced, and indistinct sounds that less refined ears do not hear. And think for moment, and you cannot consider this beautiful, gentle human being, who gives us her heart and to whom we give ourx in exchange, as standing alone and wholly removed from the continual shock of the universe. Since woman lives, suffers, reads, loves, talks and veeps, it is impossible that this intellectual revo- lutioa, this agoay of thought should not reach her. Small evidence, you may say

 NEVER AGAIN.
BY MARALE.

Never again oh never again, Even tho our tears should fall like rain. Never again, will those eyes of blue, Ever meeting mine, so fondly and true,
 Open to mortal sight. Never again; ah never again, Will my darling feel earth's weary pain. The waxen hands, I've held so tight, That almos, can feel their touch tonight,
 Viii never clasp mine again. Never again; yes, never again, l call my darling at last in vain: Darling, my darling, comS back to me, Over the shores of deaths dark sea
 You never can come again. My darling has drifted away from me, Over the river so dreadful to see; stretch my hands with pleading cries, l call on him with tear-wet eyes-
 He'll greet me, never again. Could light the fire in those beautiful eyes, And bring from those cold lips any replies, Could I chase from his brow that look of
 pain, would cease to murmur, never again,
 Never, oh! never again. Could I call back the dead from his rest in
 earth, Rekindle the love, that in me had it's bi.th, Bring back his spirit, from its flight o'er the
 main, An that can be-never again,
 Oh, my father, never again. Darling. my darling, come back to me, Over the shore of deaths dark sea, Come ease my heart of its maddcning pain, And soothe into quiet my tortured brain
 The sad winds mHrmur never again" l've closed the lids o'er those eyes of blue, On your still lips pressed kisses fond and
 true, Tho my maddening tears pour forth like
 rain, Ill greet you, my darling, never again,
 Never, oh God never again. How could you leave me in my despair How could your soul wind its way through
 the airl And leave me alone in my pain, Nor sosthe the agony maddening my brain
 An! answer me, "N Never again" So dark is the future, its outlook to me, Is dark as the waves oftbe orm-lashed sea As dark as the grave to which you were given, As faint as my hopes of re union in heaven,
 I'll meet you never again. How sadly arose the sad vail of my heart, When 1 knew that from life and from me you
 must part. God smiled on my anguish. and on my des-
 pair,
 All cries for His mercy were lost in the air,
 see you, love, never again. Come back to me, darling, just once more to
 me, How tender, how loving, my greeting would How tenderly treasured each fond spoken
 word Come 10 my heart and release it from pain,
 An pitiless father, never again.
