IHE DECEMBER oENruk1 rug
| Century for December, II not strictly
speaking Christman number, is still
a Christmasy number, opening as it
does with a f'rontispiece picture, "The
Coming of Winter,n by Mary Hallock
Foote, and containing also number
of full-page engravings of sacred pic
lures by the old and little known tia
liam master, Duccio, in the Gallery of
italian Masters. which is now one of
the most valuable features of The Cen
tavy. In addition to this there is
western story in verse by James
Whltcomb Riley entitled Last
Christmas Was A Year Ago." and
still further Christmas editorial.
A striking feature of this number is
furnished by two articles on Henry
Ward Beecher's memorable appear
ance in England in 1868, in advocacy
of the cause of the American Union.
But the two contributions to this
number of The Century having per-
haps the highest importance are the
installment of the Life of Lincoln, en-
titled First Plans for Emancipation"
and the paper by Mr.. KEENAN, in
which he graphically describes Life
on the Great Siberian Road" A

In some parts of Iowa the settlers
on the river lands are being evicted
on the English landlord plan. The
settlers are poor emigrants, With nc
means or provisions for winter,-the
little huts they are in being all they
own, and on land to which they have
no titles. Women and children are
left out in the rain and cold, where
all their earthly goods have been
dumped by the officers. 1t is o har
vest for the lawyers and land own
ers, and disgrace to the country
There is a good deal of truth IN that
part of President Cleveland's mes
sage where he says that Congress
can do anything with big and well
paid job in legislation, but to pass
laws for the relief of the oppressed
classes is a slow matter. What dc
the millionaire Senators care for the
poor people; they don't represent
the laboring classes, but wealth and
political influence rule them.

GARRETT'S SHATTERED MIND
PATERSON, n. j., Dec. Mrs. Rob-
ert Garrett has concluded to follow
the physicians advice, and will re-
main with her unfortunate husband
at Ringwood until Spring. On We'd
nesday DR.. Allen McLane Hamilton
held consultation with DIR. Jacobs,
and they concluded that it would be
iunwise to remove Mr.. Garrett now,
Notwithstanding that the patient
shows signs of improvement.
His daily life has not varied for
many weeks. He occupies a suit OF
three rooms, the windows of which
are barred with iron. Three nurses
are with him day and night, and these,
with the doctors, are the only persons
allowed to see him. When the wealth
er is mild he is taken out for drive,
and upon these occasions he is allow
ed few minutes talk with his wife.
When shut up for days he asks to see
her, but he is told that she has gone
away. He then has paper and envel-
opes brought to him and for hours
he writes letters and kilograms to her
and friends in Baltimore and New
York. Those to his wife are handed
ed her in her room and she replies by
mail. The others ore destroyed.
Mr.. Garrett dresses with faultless
care and spends hours over his toilet.
He talks continually, principally on
business matters, at times nationally
and then again in a rambling, sense
less manner. When out driving he
halls everyone along the road. When
ever these people stop they are mo-
toned away by the attendants, and
this has led Mr.. Garrett to believe
that all the people in Ringwood are
deaf and dumb. Occasionally he out
wits his attendants and stops the
workmen about the place.
On Tuesday he hailed Uncle
Hass," q blacksmith. The old man.
becoming frightened, ran away and
was followed by MIR. Garrett. The lat
ter soon overhauled Hass, and was be-
rating him violently when the atten'
dants came up. Garrett struggled with
the men, and offered to give $500, 0Ol
to kick " Uncle Hass."

one servants and costs on an average

AK ANEcDoTE OF I,oNGFEILow. !

AN ANECDOTE OF IgONGFELL0W.-
A New York paper, in some pleasant
gossip about Mr.. Longfellow, tells a
story of the way he treated the charg-
es of plagiarism against the Indian
poem, Hiawatha," in following
closely both the form and substance
of The Kalevale, the national epic of
Finland. When they began to appear,
he showed profound Indifference on
the subject; but before long his pub
Usher thought best to call attention to
them, and suggested that a reply from
the poet be written. "Well, I'll
think about it," said Mr.. Longfellow,
and there the matter dropped. The
press continued to echo and re-echo
the charge; and the publisher again
called Oh the poet, saying, "Really
Mr.. Longfellow, / think it is high
time this charge was answered.
Again Longfellow said "I'll see about
it," adding, quietly, /" how is the
book selling9'' "0h. wonderfully
WE'LL" said the publisher. Better
than any other books ?o oh, much
BETTER" and he named the figures.
Shortly after this interview Mr..
Longfellow still keeping silencel, the
Tribune came out with almost a page
of broadside on the subject. The pub
Usher was now really excited. He
called on the poet again. at will
not do" he said, very decidedly, 'to
let this thing go on any longer"
"How does the book sell ?" asked
Longfellow. "Amazingly-the sale
is already equal to the combined sales
of your other books" "Then," said
Longfellow, 81 think we ought to
be thankful to these critics. Let them
talk. Seems to me they are giving us
large amount Of gratuitous advertis-
ing. Better let them alone" And
let alone they were. The fact that at
that time there was no existing trans
lation into English which would ea-
able readers to make comparisons,
rendered Mr.. Longfellow's silence
comparatively safe. Now that COM
plete translation is published in fine
and popular form by ALDEN, readers
will have justifiable curiosity to in
vestigate, and see wherein the resem-
blance lies. And, as commonly is
true in comparing originals and imi.
tations, it will be found that great as
the merit is of Mr.. Longfellow's work,
and characteristic of his own indivi-
duality, the Kalevala is work of al
most infinitely higher order.
