THE LANTERNS LIGHT.
Luck Of the Little Illustrated Paper Of
Thirty-si. Years Ago

1hlrty-SlT Years Ago.
l have not scen it stated in any of the
sketches Of his career that Lester Wallack
was at one time an editor And although
be was such in comparative sense only, the
fact. nevertheless, is worthy Of record. In
1852 the late John l,rougham originated and
published little illustrated paper here mod
eled after The London Punch, calling it The
Lantern. Its flame was a brilliant one.
Once week all the leading contributors
and artists connected with the paper used to
meet at dinner, as do the artists and editors
of Punch today, to make suggestions for and
decide upon the principal cartoon to be
printed in the next issue
The meeting was held every Saturday night
at Windust's, famous restaurant on Park
row, and after every one had duIled their
faculties with well served viands and mud
died their brains with innumcrable draughts
of sherry and ale, cigars would be Lit, the
brandy decanter passed around and John
Brougham sitting at the head of the table,
with Lester Wallack at the other end, would
call the meeting to order and the business of
the evening would begin The assemblage
generally broke up at about 3 in the moru-
ing; and when the subject for the cartoon
had at length been decided upon, my old
friend Frank Bellew would go home and
make the design. In the editorial duties Of
the paper, Lester Walack, so Mr. Brougham
has told me, was his right hand man, while
q Mr.. Tinson, whom if am not mistaken,
was carpet manufacturer with no ability
whatever in art or letters, was chief adviser.

Goldcn Rods and Asters.

Nick's Magazine thinks that these grouped
together should Le accepte! as our national
flowcrs-''emblems of endurance, light and
freedom" After midsummer, in this coun-
try, our rural landscape is everywhere bright
encd by the golded rods and asters; they form
n distinct and beautiful feature of the scenery.
The eyes of our countrymen are everywhere
gladdened by their smiles, north and SOUTH
east and west, on the hills and tho noun
tain sides, in the valleys and on tho broad
praires, by the roadsidcs and the streams
aud in the field and copses they stand as
tokens of the genial heat that brings from tho
soil the golden grams and the beautiful, lus-
cous fruits. No other country in the world
is thus characterized; these plants belong to
America, and us such should be our pride
and delight
While on this continent there arc from six
ty seventy species, and perhaps more, of tho
solidasos, OF golden rods, and nearly all of
them Of vigorous habit, growing from foot
to eight feet III height, all the world besides
affords less than dozen, and these for the
most part of small size and confined to few
localities Of limited area, and always in such
small numbers as to make them rarc plants.
The species of asters in this country are still
more numerous than those of the golden rod.
Both are the children of the sun, baskng in
his favors and reilccting his smiles. Although
many Indigenous Species of flower are pecul-
lar to this country, yet none so abound and
apparently claim possession as thcsc.-lIome

own two travel in front, with them he holds
general conversation on the way. Within
three hours be will start each dog after q
separate deer, and by short cuts or by some

of them coming in from the opposite direc-
tion, JOIN his voice, and by the time the deer
is killed, he is on hand to join in the hiarity

it is impossible to say, for their artistic and
general ideas were far inferior to those of
others in the party. Nevertheless the fact
remains.
The contributors to The Lantern were oil
men of genius. They belonged to certain
set that marked q sort of Elizabethan era in
the annals of New York journalism. There
was Fitz James 'Brien, the author of many
charming bits of verse, and an able literary
and dramatic critic, who enlisted in the
Union army at the breaking out of tho war,
and was killed while serving as aide-de-camp
to Gen. Lander. There was Thomas Dunn
English, one of the few who survive TODAY.

christened Micawber by tho party, both for
his traits i'll common with, as we'll as his re-

and who afterward committed suicide, were
