EDITORS HERALD: Referring to a
communication in the HERALD Of
the 18th instant, from Madame
Modjeska, disclaiming the authorship of
a poem published in the August number
of the Pacific Monthly, and objecting to
the unwarranted use of her name there
in. beg to state that it was l who fur
nished the copy of the poem, having
found it in newspaper many years ago,
and, ignorant of her former disclaimer
sof its authorship, and equally ignorant
of the impropriety OF republishing arti-
cles found already going the rounds OF
the public press, requested its insertion
in the magazine, as compliment to the
supposed author, and for the preserva-
ton OF, in my judgment, one of the most
beautiful little poems ever written upon
the subject chosen.
fail to find words to sufficiently ex-
press my regret that its publication has
caused Madame Modjeska the slightest
annoyance, and that my intended COM
.pliment should be deemed inappropriate,
! but if can make an apology as ample
and sincere as my admiration and respect
for the name and genius of Helena
Modjeska. it cannot but be acceptable to
the lady whom l, and all Southern Califor-
mans, with whom she has made her
home, so fondly delight to honor.
Very respectfully,
CHARLES T. HEALEY.

Madame Modjeska and Her Disclaimer.

Madame Modjeska and Her Disclaimer.
Our readers will recall the fact that
some time ago Madame Modieska, dis
claimed the authorship of a poem called
The Wanderer, which appeared in the
Pacific Monthly, and which was ascribed
so her. The following note from Mrs.
Mary e. Hart, at the time the edito. Of
the Pacific Monthly, and from Captain
Charles T. Healey, who suggested the
publication of the poem, which appears
to have really been written by Mr.. Eu-
gene Field, throw light on the matter.
The production itself<is also appended,
in order that the public may form their
own ia,prcssion Of its merits:
EDITORS HERALD: In glancing over the
columns of your paper, few days since,
great was my establishment to behold
above the signature Of Madame Mod
ieska a protest against the unwarranted
use of her name in the Pacific Monthly,
(which publication have until recently
had the honor to represent. The poem
in squestion, a selection by Captain
Charles I. Healey, appeared In our col
umns Immediately after the meeting OF
the editorial association at Santa Bar
bara, in August last. at which conven,
ton Madame Modjeska was an honored
guest. We regret that. what was in
stended as delicate compliment to the
lady should be so harshly misconstrued
and hope the assurance that 1--WE won't
do so any more" may heal wounded
dignity and prove satisfactory.
Very respectfully,
MARY E. HART.

Upon mountain height far from the seq,
l found ashell
And to my curious ear this lonely thing,
Ever a song of ocean seemed to sing,
Ever a tale of ocean seemed to tell.
How came this shell upon the mountain height?
All, who can say,
Whether there dropped by some too careless
hand,
Whether there cast when oceans swept the land,
Ere the Eternal had ordained the day.
Strange, was it not, far from its native sea-
One song it sang;
Sang of the mighty mysteries of the tide,
Sang nf the ul, vast profound and wide,
Softly with echoes ofthe ocean rang.
And, as the shell upon the mountain height,
Sings of the sea,
SO do l ever leagues and leagues away
So do / ever, wandering where may,
Sing, my home, sing, o my home, OF thee.

is hardly to be overcome with drastic
thariics and nauseous cholagogues. A gentler,
pleasanter and far more effective means ex-
lists of arousing the organ when somnolent.
This is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, vouched
for by the medical fraternity, tested by the
public for many years. A resumption by the
hillary organ of its secretive function, with the
activity attendant upon health, return to
regularity of the bowels, and a renewal of diges-
tion. are the no less happy and certain results
of using the Bitters systematically. Its laxa-
tive effect is never painful and drenching, its
tendency being rather to perpetuatc regularity
