Ep,demio character OF Verso.

in our own immediate tiines verso writing
has become something moro Of the nature of
disease than Of IN honor. A species Of
rhymophobia pervades tho cultivated world.
Like the bite Of tho bitten victim, fashion
able forms OF construction extend. There 10
contagion in them. The strain for effect hrs
become virulent. We feel, perforce, n sym
pathy with the half playful but wholly
earnest revolt Of DIR. Holmes against the
epidemic character of our debilitated verse.

The subscription publishers of New
York propose to form trust TO pro-
tect themselves from agents who sell
at reduced rates, and they also propose
to adopt means by which these agents
may be found and then black. list them
This will undoubtedly prove to be an
advisable proposition. AT any rate, it
will prevent other men from receiving
large income by producing the pub.
fishers works at reduced figures, and
enable them to receive from their sub.
scriptions, instead of letting the rus
cally agents thrive from their work.

AN UNLUCKY QUARTER.

The year 1888 has been said to be a
lucky one, but if the present state of
affairs continue much longer. this
prophesy will receive an un6elcome
denial. Ever since the first of January
there has been An unusual number of
disasters. Railroad accidents haye been
more numerous so far this year than
they were few years ago, and to what
can this fact be attributeds Perhaps it
is because there are more railroads,
or it may be caused by carelessness on
tho part of the railroad managers
There have been more cyclones, biz.
yards, heavy storms at sea, and in
fact everything has gone wrong,
when compared with similar incidents
of last year. 1t has been seen that
engineering work of different kinds
has received many black marks during
che past three months, hut, as yet, the
financial undertakings have been sue
cessful during the first quhrter of this
year. Now, to have this lucky year
everything should work In perfect
harmony during the remaining three
quarters. To insure harmonious re-
suits forever, many changes for the
better must be made, and the princi
pie changes are, that hereafter Amer.
leans should rule America, the restrict.

lists. Socialists and ether plotting socie-
ties be driven from existance. With
these, as principle amendments, and
many others nearlytas important, the
country will insure its safety. Let
all true and honest Americans work
for the rights of America, and then
every year will be profitable, instead
of an occasional one in a century.
