EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON,
D. c., July 4th, 1885.
Hon. P. Henry Dugro, Grand Sachem:
DEAR SIR-I beg leave to acknowledge
the receipt of your invitation to join the so.
ciety of fsmmaay in the 9th celebration of
the Fourth Of July, she birthday of the Re.
public. i regret that the pressure of official
duties and engagements prevent acceptance
of this kind invitation. OF the
purposes sought to be accomplished
by the people in their choice chief magis-
trate recently referred to in your note am
seriously mindful. / fully realized every
member of the party in power should yield
cordial support to all efforts on the party of
the administration to restore pure, free
and Just Government. The statement con-
tanned in your note that "the Administra-
ton should 30 discharge all its functions as
to merit not only the appreciation of the
people, but at the same time to
insure a harmonious party united
on Jeffersonisn Democracy, meets my sp'
proyal, although my conception of the true
purpose and the mission Of my part con-
vinces me that if the present Administration
merits the approval Of the people, this result
of itself certainly should insure harmoni-
GUS party united on Jefersonian Democ-
racy. While the coming celebration will
revive and keep alive the memory OF patri-
otic devotion and sacrifice for the sake of
free institutions, no occasion is more pro.
pitious for a renewal of our pledges to a
true and progressive Democracy, so essential
to our country's safety and prosperity.
Yours, very truly,
GROVER CLEVELAND.

The article which called for the Her
AIDS defense of American novelists was
more upon the theory which should pre-
vail in the composition of the novel than
criticism upon individual novelists.
Cooper, as the Herald says, dealtin Eek
ternal' delineations, and he is entitled to
high rank among American novelists, far
higher rank than it is the fashion of
the day to accord him. Twain is
not a novelist in the proper sense OF the
word. He is a writer of humorous de-
scriptions which ceases to be funny after
the first reading. Neither is Mrs. Stowe
a novelist, although she has tried very
hard to be one. Her fame rests upon
Uncle Toms Cabin, which as novel is
very inferior, but as a description of slav-
cry and its evils, is superior. Howells
and James are truly novelists, and The
Portrait of Lady, by James, is piece
of artistic literary work that has few
equals, and no superiors. James has no
in the art of minute finish of
every detail, and it is this close attention
to detail which makes him so great an
artist. He is a greater artist than How
ellis, and the very thing of which the
Rev. Traill complains is the thing that
makes him great artist. American lit
erature is perfectly safe in the hands of
such superior writer's of fiction as How
ellis and James, and their works are their
best defenders,
