Some of the Democratic papers in the
South caution Democrats not to take any
part in the state convention until their
territorial committee marks out policy
after consultation with the administration
and leaders at Washington. 1t is regarded
as desirable that the party should be in en-
tire harmony with the Washington policy.

The Great Southwestern Music House

The Great Southwestern Music House.
 Considering the natural advantages of the two places, and the enterprising character of their business men, it is but natural that Memphis, Tenn, and Little Rock, Ark, should be the commercial centers and great supply depots of their own and several adjoining states. Among the business houses of the two cities there is none that stands higher or better de- serves the trade it commands than the Great Southwestern Music House of H. G. Hollenberg. A business career sf over thirty years in Memphis and of six years in Little Rock, during which these houses have virtually controlled the music trade of Arkansaw, Tennessee, Mississippi, north Alabama, north Texas and the Indian Territory, places them prominently above all southern competi. tors. These houses carry the largest and most complete stock of the best m akes of pianos and organs, sheet music and all goods pertaining to their line, and are prepared to fill orders without any delay, and at prices less than the purchaser can obtain in the east, freight considered. All goods handled by H. G. HollenbeEg are comprised in neat catalogue which will be mailed free to any address. Par ties contemplating the purchase of piano, or organ, or musical merchandise of any description, should not fail to ob- tain Hollenberg's prices before ordering elsewhere. Address, H. c. Hollenberg, Memphis, Tenn, or Little Rock, Ark.

Ingersoll on Lincoln.

Under the singular caption of Motley and Monarch" Colonel Robert G. lnger. soil contributes to the December Morkk AmericGn Rsviev a genuine prose poemo on Abraham Lincoln, who is summed up and photographed in single paragraph, thus:
 Strange mingling of mirth and tears, of the tragic and grotesque, of cap and crown, of Socrates and Rabelais, of Esop and Marcus Aureiius, of all that is gentle and just, humorous and honest, merciful, wise, laughable, lovable, and divine, and all consecrated to the use of man; while through all, and over all, an overwhelm- ing sense of obligation, of chivalric loy- alty 10 truth, and upon all the shadow of the tragic end"
 And here are some more of the dia- monds gleaming incidently in Colonel lngersolps superb cluster.
 Nearly all the great historic characters are impossible monsters, disproportioned by fattery, or by calumny deformed. We know nothing of their peculiarities, or nothing but their peculiarities.
 Washington is now only steel engrav- ing. About the real man who lived and loved and hated and schemed we know but little,
 Hundreds of people are now engaged in smoothing out the lines of Lincoln's face-forcing all features to the common msld-so that he may be known, not as he really was, but, according to their poor standard, as he should have been.
 Lincoln never finished his education. To the night of his death he was a pupil, a learner, an inquirer, seeker after knowledge. You have no idea how many men are spoiled by what is called educa- tion. For the most part colleges are places where pebbles are polished and diamonds are dimmed. If Shakespeare had graduated at Oxford, he might have been quibbling attorney or hypocriti- cal pars0n. .
 Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear ad- versity. But if you wish to know what man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except upon the side of mercy.
 He was patient as destiny, whose unde- cipherable hieroglyphs were SO deeply graven on his sad and tragic face.
 Lincoln was the grandest figure of the 6ercest civil war. He is the gentlest memory of our world.

Settling a Minister.
[Ingleside.l

Charles II. was one of the most hardly treated exiles of all the princes that have striven for crown. The Scotchmen led him sorry life of it when they were talk ing care of him awhile in I65I. On one occasion, when he was canvassing the Scotch Presbyterians for their vote and interest, he called, among other places, at Rev. MT. Guthrie's manse of Stirling. As he entered the room, the mistress rose to offer him chair, but her husband ex- claimed:
 "Step, my hesrtl The kingis young man he can get chair for himself"
 Charles concealed his anger until he came into his inheritance, when ne hanged the Rev. MT. Guthrie.

A Guarantee.

Of all the diseases to which mankind is subject, there is not one that more completely baf1es medical skill than Bright's disease of the kidneys. Nature, however, has supplied the remedy which science has tried in vain to provide. The waters of Griffin Spring, Ark, will not only relieve, but will positively cure Bright's disease. It has been cured by the use of these waters, and so positive are we that they will cure in every in- stance, that we gHayantee a cure to all afflicted with Bright's disease or any other kidney affection, who will come and use the waters as advised. By "guarantee !" is meant that unless a cure is effected, the patient will be under no expense whatever while at Griffin Spring. Visit ors whose cases require it, will receive the best of medical attention from Dr. I. A. Krider, resident physician. As to the efficacy of these waters in kidney troubles, we refer te John H. Reslear, of Genoa, Nance Co.,, Neb., who, after suf- fering during several years with Bright's disease, was completely restored by three weeks visit to Griffin Spring. Wm. Allen, of Little Rock, Ark, suffered 37 years with kidney complaint. and was cured by the use of these waters. Hon. C. R. Breckenridge, M. C., Washington, D. C., Hon. Lecil Bobo, San Antonio, Tex, H. ]. Deal, Charleston, Mo-, F. M. Threadgill, Lynchburg, Va, and Rev. A. R. Kennedy, Little Rock Ark, will all bear testimony to the efficacy of the waters of this spring. Parties interested may write to any of the gentlemen mentioned above, for confirmation of our statement. Griffin Spring is but three and one half miles from the railroad, and less than four hours ride from Little Rock. The hotel affords the best of accommodations to guests, and there is nothing lacking in the surroundings to make it a pleasant resort. For further information address

Uncertainty of Literature.
 Boston Giobe.I


 Why is it that young writers harp 90 persistently on minor chords7 Where there is one poem on home and sunshine and happy life, there are dozen which moan over blasted hopes (at 22), twilight by the moaning sea, withered leaves, and other subjects of more or less melan- choly nature. Very few wholesome, cheery, religious verses are offered, near ly all expressing the writer's praiseworthy resignation under caiamities which never happened, and his extreme anxiety to turn his back upon the earth, which he designates as vale" or "desert." 1" The same is apt to be true of prose offer- ings.
 All editors will unite in saying that the rarest and most difficult short sketch to procure is racy, well-written, Thanks giving or Christmas story; while the themes of hopeless love and early death are dwelt upon with avidity. By far the most numerous class of short stories offered to magazines and weeklies is that of juvenile sketches. It is a popular fal- lacy that while it takes a genius to write society novel, anybody can tell stories to children. While this delusion, for such it certainly is, has been productive of great deal of good juvenile work, by drawing efforts of writers to that field, it also overloads the mail-bags with vast amount of inanity intended to nourish the youthful imagination and appease its bangs for intellectual entertainment. Try to read one of these stories aloud to half dozen mischievous boys and girls and see whether it holds them. There's the real taste.
 At the bottom of all, the real fact is that the literary market is overcrowded, the surplusage being largely composed of those who, as Holmes says, mistake laziness for inspiration. Half a century ago the case was different. In the first place, literary work was then poorly paid, as may be seen by the $5 checks flaw. thorne and Longfellow received for some of their finest productions, and secondly, the natural consequence was that there was but little really good writing. Again, many of the fields which were then open to writers have been since trampled over until their flow are all plucked, and their turf plowed up for corn and beans.
 Altogether literature is, as has been we'll said, most uncertain staff. While, however, there is much in the present condition of things to discourage those who are preparing themselves for this work, it is to be remembered that there is constant demand, even in the edito- rial offices of our largest magazines and papers, for bright, wholesome, earnest ar- ticles, stories and poems on subjects that tend to cheer and amuse as well as ele- vate. Of such the market is never full.

 "Do you cali Sarah Bernhardt great ?"
 Great is great word," Madame Modjeska answered., with a little shrus of her shoulders, but yes, she is great in some parts. She cannot play Shakes peare."
 What is your ambition in your pro- fession ?"
 "To play Shakespeare-anything in Shakespeare. The modern drama, it is abominaole. There is no food for the brain in it. It is based on selfish motives. It is trash !' Modjeska's brown eyes snapped as she reached this climax, and she clenched her fists for greater em- Phasis.
