TALENT AND GENIUS.
The Former Initiates and Develops; tho
Latter Crentes.

Latter Creates.
reader wishes to know the differ
ence between talent and genius. if there
is any. There is u great deal of differ
cnce, and its manifestations are in {,
very marked contrast.
Talent is q development of the natural
understanding. 1t may be inherited or
1T may be an original gift. at any rate,
it is special natural inclination in any
certain direction, rs for language, for
music painting or what not else. Gull
tivation pcrfccts it mechanically and
develops it to its fullest extent.
Genius is the action of reason and the
imagination. 1t is thoughtful and Gre
alive where talent Is merely mcchan-
ical and initiative. Talent treats of
what it sees. Genius creates something
to treat about. Talent reflects ideas
and objects. Genius produces ideas and
subjects in order to inspire them with
life.
In this way of familiar illustrations,
it nay be said that Charles Dickens was
genius and Charles Readc Il man of
talent. Anthony Trollopc was 4 tai
cnted man and Thackcray n genius.
With this hint the reader can go ahead
and make up contrastcd list of what
he considers the gcniuses ana the
talents of the universe for himself

CHAPTER XII.

A GEORGIA FOX HUM.
For a few days Joe Maxwell forgot all
about Mr.. Deometari, Mr.. Blandford. and
Mr.. Pruitt. There was distinguished COM
pany visiting the editor of The Countryman
"a young lady from Virginia, Miss Nelly
Carter, and her mother, and some young
officers at home on furlough. One of these
Young officers, a kinsman of the editor,
brought his pack of fox hounds, and ar
rangements were made for a grand fox
hunt. The plantation seemed to arouse
itself to please the visitors. The negroes
around the house put on their Sunday
clothes and went hurrying about their
duties, as if to show themselves at their
best.
Joe was very glad when the editor told
him that he was to 20 with the fox-hunters
and act as a master of ceremonies. For
hunting was a sport Of which he was very
fond. for it seemed to combine all the Gle
ments Of health and pleasure in outdoor
life. Shortly after Joe vent to the planta-
ton the editor of The Countryman had
brought from HillsborouRh a hound puppy
which had been sent him bv a Mr.. Bird
song. This Mr.. Birdsong was a celebrated
breeder of fo1-hounds. having at one time
| the only pack south of Virginia that could
| catch a red fox. He was a great admirer
of the editor of The Countryman, and he
sent him the dog us a gift. In his letter
Mr.. Birdsone wrote that the puppy had
been raised under a gourd vine, and SO
the editor called him Jonah. Joe Maxwell
thought the name was n very good one, but
it turned out that the dog was very much
better than his name. The editor gave the
dog to Joe, who took great pains in train
| tpu him Rafnra ,J0nph Waq Rjy months old
he had learned to trail a fox-skin, and bv
the time he was a year old hardly Il morn
ing passed that Joe did not drag the skin
COR the pleasure of seeing Jonah trail it.
He developed great speed and powers Of
gcent and he was not more than two wears
old before he had run dow and caught y
rcd fox, nnaided and alone. Naturally Joe
was very proud of Jonah, and he was glad
of an opportunity to show of the dogs
hunting qualities.
In training JONAH Joe had also nnwit-
tingly trained an old fox. that made his

try. lie was old, and tough, and sly. He
had been pursued SO ofton that if he heard

negroes called him ''old Sandy and this

Jonah. when a puppy had THRILLED old Sand,
many a time, and Joe knew all OF his trick!
