st. Nicholas.

Now that St. Nicholas has come with
his presents for children and taken his de-
parture, something about the history of
the little man may be interesting. Saint
Nicholas came to our shores from Ger
many. He was the patron saint of New
Amsterdam. A New York exchange
says: From the days of the courteous
Peter Minnitt of Vessel and the Honora-
Bile the Director General and Council, this
= Island of Manhattan has been dedicated
to the good saint whom our children still
honor in these days. TO them he is still
the jolly. rosy checked, little old man,
with ow-crowned hat, pair OF Flemish
trunk hose, and pipe of immense length
who drove his reindeer sleigh, loaded
with gifts from the Arctic region, over
the roofs of New Amsterdam for the ben
eft of good children. They showed how
much they loved the jolly old saint by
rendering him an homage-greater than
they gave to Christmas-by the trees they
raised. the fires they lighted, the wonder.
full tales they told, the jokes they cracked,
and the eagerness with which they
watched, until overcome by sleep, for the
prancing of the first reindeer upon the
root"
1t is pretty well unders TODD however
that ST. Nicholas, Santa Claus and Kris
Kringle represent the same parsonage, to
whom the Dutch gave the name of St.
Nicholas. The following is Dutchman's
description OF his patron saint.
Saint Nicholas IL the Dutchmaus saint,
And jolly good saint Is he;
lie loved good fellows and good fare,
But he never was partial to tea.
He loved In Amsterdam TO be
In the good old days Of yore,
But he also loved New Amsterdam
And all Manhattan shore.
He loved pudding and song
fthe rousing roaring kind;
He loved roast turkey very well done,
And boiled ham to find
Cooked and ready when he came
Visiting round each year.
He loved joke and a very big mug,
But he hated to see tear.

The FIRST NAPOLEON: A SKETCH Political
AND MILITARY. By JOHN GOODMAN ROPES.
HoUGHToN, MIFFLIN & Co.

This volume contains six lectures, deliv-
cred by the author, in Boston. under the aus
pices of the Lowell Institute, in March, 1885
The work is not and does not claim to be q
new history. 1t is an effort to rectify the
fundamental notions with which nearly all
historians have approached the study of the
epoch Of Napoleon. Nearly all writer's upon
Napoleon have been his bitter enemies or
devoted friends. Theirs history is perhaps
rs fair history as has hitherto appeared.
SCOTS was prepared to present the British
view of Napoleon, representing him as an
ambitious tyrant, cruel, rapacious, thirsting
for war and conquest.
In the work before us more rational and
just opinions are presented of the French
Emperor. 1t is claimed for him that he was
more sinned against than SHINING for the great
wars in which he WAS engaged that he did
not seek war but peace; that he was bitterly
opposed by the despotic powers of Europe
because he stood for the ideas of liberty and
equality born of the French Revolution and
against the absolutism represented by the
ruling powers of England. Russia and Aus
tria Itwts not a soldiers ambition which
carried him to Moscow. At the bottom of
the twenty years strife was the ''irrepressible
conflict" between liberty and equality on the
one hand, and privilege and despotism on the
other The autocratic powers we're bound to
destroy him because his success would ad
vance freedom and loosen the bonds of des-
potism on the continent. They fought to
maintain the doctrine of the divine right of
kings; he to establish the doctrine that the
people should be the governing power. He
wore the title of Emperor, but the power he
had was given to him bv the French people /;
he fought ~ their representative, and they
sustained him with the best blood of the ma
ton a. long as he remained at the head of the
government.
The popular opinion of Napoleon, where
it has been formed from prejudiced or paid
historians like Scott 10 unjust to the great
military chieftain. Better views will prevail
when the truth fully appears, and the volume
OF which we are now writing will do good
service in correcting erroneous public senti.
ment His was bitter fight, and bitterly
have those whom he often Inundated on the
| field of battle pursued him even since the
grave closed over him.
| The author criticises quite severely some
of the military plans and conduct of Napol-
con, believing that though his genius in mil
itary affairs was of the highest order, he
ran risks that no prudent officer would have
allowed himself to take. His criticism upon
the management of the battle of Waterloo
is very interesting and throws much light up
on that sanguinary field. Maps accompany
the work, enabling the reader to get a better
knowledge than he otherwise could of the
great battles in which Napoleon was engaged.

Senator Beck and the Administra
ton.

Senator Beck's speech in opposition to
the declared policy of the administration
causes the democratic leaders great deal
of anxiety. They fear the effect which
such a broadside from one of the leading
members of the democratic party may
have upon the administration. The New
York Times complains that there is not
a democratic senator with ability enough
to answer the speech. while upon the re-
publican side there are many who could
do so successfully il they would, but they
refuse to come to the support Of the Pres
ident against the sharp thrusts Of his own
party leaders. This is sad, indeed, that
the party organs have to call upon the
republican side to save them from them
selves. and the former refuse the needed
assistance!
