SOUTH AMERICA,
Tremendous Commercial Importance of
the Southern Peninsula.

Tremendous Commercial Importance of
the Southern Peninsula.
Several of the nations of Europe keep
watchful eyes on South America. 1t is.
vast and comparatively unoccupied
portion of the earth's surface. Ger
mans, Italians and Portuguese. as well
as the English, keep up close relations
with it. The trade is profitable and
large, while the number of immigrants,
especially Italians, is steadily increas-
ing. Some of the South American
States are making rapid material prog
ress. Chill is very wealthy nation.
Brazil has very promising future, and
the Argentine Confederation enjoys an
immense commerce. The South Amer
lean trade in dressed beef promises to
be immense in time. The magnitude
of this peninsula is not realized by our
people. South America is more than
double the size of the United States.
The Empire of Brazil seems on the map
quite as large as Australia. 1t is twenty
four times the size of England. The
Argentine Republic is nearly as large
as Europe, taking Russia out. Bolivia
and Venezuela are each twice the size
of England; New Grenada and Peru
each as large as England and Scotland,
Ecuador something less, Paraguay
equal to Great Britain, Uruguay and
Chill about the same, and the little
known regions of Patagonia and Terra
del Fuego at least double the dimen-
sions of Great Britain. British, French
and Dutch Guiana are nearly as large
og Great britain Tho ITnifod Gtafau
alone of all the nations has scarcely any
interest in South America. We pur-
chase of it coffee, leather and India
rubber, but our trade in return is
mere nothing. Some day or other we
will wake up to the importance of cult
waiting business relations with the great
nations to the south of us.-Ds9VoreSfs

According to the latest official in

newspapers and periodicals, of which
400 are political, 175 economical, 1871
agricultural, 113 connected with trades
or special occupation, go medical or
scientific, SO pedagogical, 55 geo.
graphical and historical, 208 represent
ing literature and humor, IS military;
129 advertising papers, So ecclesiastical,
and 107 local papers; 727 of the whole
number are published in the single prov
ince of Lower Austria. As to Ian
guage 1854 are German, 225 Czech,
10S Polish, 95 Italian, So Slovenian, 80
in other Slav dialects, and IA are
mixed-that is, have portions in differ
ent languages. 1t is noteworthy that,
as compared with the preceding year,
the German papers have increased in
number by per cent, the Italian by
6.7, the Czech by 1876, the Slovenian
by 20.7, and the Polish by 81. Hungary
and the provinces dependent on the
Hungarian crown are not taken into

MOTIVE.

II your purpose is high, and your aim is
pure,
And you toll with patience, and wait and
pray,
Z tell you that work will eudure-endure-
And it matters little what men may say.
A swarm of insects may dim the skies
Till the sun seems Swallowed and overcast
But clouds that are only the wings of flies
Must yield to the power of light at the last
Nothing noble can be downtrod.
And nothing worthy long hidden from
sight;
Back OF this Universe stands God,
And He moves all things by the lever of
Right.
1t takes true motive to make true art
Art without motive lives but for day
And where there is purpose, and feeling, and
heart,
1t can not perish though worlds decay.
Keep up your courage, and work and wait,
o, toilers who toll with an aim sublimel
The eyes of the years shall discriminate,
And read your purpose Alright in time.

The Professional Poet.
Philadelphia News.l

An editor of we'll known weekly journal of humor and literature con- fessed ignorance not very long ago of the difference between ballad and a baiiade. There are, of course, hundreds of very worthy persons who are in the same boat with this editor, and they have greater excuse. Yet the number of whom this particular lack of knowl- edge might be affirmed is growing less every year, with the rise and progress of the professional poet.
 The ballade may be taken as type of the verse of that class of young Amer ican and English authors who have found in the lifting yet ornate and ex- act measures of the French school, from Nillon to De Banville, the most con genial forms in which to clothe their modern as well as classic conceptions. Bryant, Longfellow, Edgar A Poe, Ten nyson, Oliver Wendell Holmes. Brown ing and John G. Sake have never writ ten ballades While this does not de- tract from the value nor from the beau ty of their poems, 1t certainly is not to be taken as refecting in any way on the merits of those who do write in the charming and tiexile forms that grew like the grapes in their own land of champagne, moulding and shaping the beauteous outlines, yet nowise impair ing the strength and flavor of the gen erous spirit within.
 That the ballade, rondeau, triolet, viii lanelle and rondel are as exact as even the sonnet, so long the rigid exemplar of English verse, is their first impression on the purely Anglo-Saxon student. That they are capable of being meas ured by rule, makes them easy instru- ments in the hands of the professional poet who is rapidly becoming a fixed star in the literary heavens. There are the same number of rhymes and of lines in each of 8 score of ballades, or bakers, or poets dozen, either, of ron deaux. It is good deal easier to build rondeau as a ship, on certain lines, and these are naturally the favorites. After acquiring by practice knowledge of these conditions and a certain facility in the unconscious suggestion of rhyme, by which love inevitably and invol- untarily makes professional poet think of dove he has mastered his tools as much as he will ever master them, and PiOSVOuo iOl dIlA iIlcICllcSSlN lO launch his poetic craft, all of the same model, by the score.
 These formalities do not as yet ham, per the Philadelphia verse-writer, and he is numerous to very great extent. The good old fashioned quatrain and the rhyming dimeter are his favorite forms as yet. The professional poet for the most part still writes sense, and sells his work to monthly magazine, or nonsense, and sells it to a weekly. He is yet too new to deteriorate. When he shall have become sufficiently frequent to necessitate special talent, or even spark of genius to raise this verse out of the ruck, he will fall upon the com- munity with the fell force and fanfar- ronade of the street band. Then the newspapers will become his prey, and the humble quatrain be left to honored oblivion
