The Literary Ferment In France.

Philarete Chasles relates in his memoirs
how one afternoon, as he was at work in his
newspaper Office, young man with mill
tary air, looking as bold as II he were going
70 the wars, Knocked imperiously at the
door, walked in, sat down and said, with
out further preamble:
Monsieur, am Hugo"
Then, after handing 10 Chasles the famous
yellow covered book with the password,
Hero on the title-page, he asked him II
he was on his side or not. and continued:
"Monsieur, not only are We going to
change poetry, when needs fundamental
revolution, but grammar also. What do
you think about our prosodyy French
prosody must be completely oyt rhauled.'
So il is In France, where neither centuries
nor years count, but only minutes aud Sc
conds, the shock Of contraries and the Vlo-
lence OF reaction. The French must always
be fighting about something-eVen Tor
Boiieau against Ronsard, and for Nonette
against yoltaire. Printers ink mus: smell

Many Of Shakespeare's contemporary
poets must have had every advantage that
he mad in practical experience OF the stage,
and all Of them mad probably as familiar al
intercourse with tile theatre IS he. But
what difference between their manner OF
constructing a play and his In all his
dramatic works bis skill ia tails Is more or
less apparent. Ia the best OF them 1t ia
unriyaled. From the first scene Of them he
seems 70 have behed as from tower the
end Of all. In Romeo and Juliet, for ex-
ample, he had his story before him, and he
follows it closely enough; but how natu-
rally one scene Is linked % the next, and
one event leads 20 another. II this play
were meant TO illustrate anything, It would
seem 10 be that orr lives were ruled by
chance. Yet there is nothing left to chance
in the action Of the play, which advances
with the unYaclllating foot OF destiny.
And the characters are made 70 subordinate
themselves 10 the Interests Of the play as TO
something in which they have all common
concern. With the greater part OF the Sc
cOndary dramatists, the characters seem
like Impractical people trying 10 walk the
deck Of a ship in rough weather, who start
for everywhere 10 bring up anywhere, ana
are hustled against each other IN the most
inconyenient way. IL is only when the plot
is very simple and straightforward mat
there Is any chance OF smooth water ana Oh
things going on without falling foul OF eaeh
other. Was it only that Shakespeare, III
choosing his themes, had keener percep-
ton OF the dramatic possibilities OF slory
This Is very likely. ard 1t is certain lhst ns

Conspicuous among the missionaries
was Father Damon. who came to Honolulu

New Bedford, Nantucket and the whaling
ports of New England. They stopped there
TO clean bottoms. Their crews were a god
less set. and among these Father Damon
mInistered. But 1t appears Father Damon
saved a great pile of dollars while he was
saving souls. The crews and masters of
the whaling vessels were asked for barrel
of oil for Gods sake, and Father Damon
stored the oil in the cellar of his gospel ship
on shore.
AT the beginning of the civil war in
America whale oil Jumped suddenly TO a
high prce. Father Damon sent out ship
load Of oil. which safely passed the dangers
of the Confederate cruisers and the cargo
was unloaded on dock at Boston. That

A BLACK CBIHT.
Leaving Charleston, Teach sailed for
Ocracoko Inlet with the intention of ravag-
ing the commerce Of Pamlico Sound On
the way he perpetrated the blacklist and
most pertidiOus crime of his career In
order 10 secure all Of the immense booty
tor himself and few favorites he maroOned
the remainder of his crew upon a barren
island of the North Carolina coast, and
there left them without water or food, TO
perish upon that desolate spot, where there
was neither herb, tree, bird nor beast. He
seemed 10 find Pamlico Sound and its
tributaries peculiarly attractive and profit
able. Here he assumed a lordly manner of
life, frequently going ashore In great state
and inviting himself TO the mansions Of the
wealthy planters, who did not dare TO de-
cline his intrusive visits. At the point of
the pistol they were compelled to endure
the pirates wanton insults to their wives
and daughters With bis usual temerity he
ventured to the capital OF tho province.
where, becoming much enamOred of beau
tiful and amiable girl Of sixteen, 40 entered
into matrimonial alliance. The fate OF
this gentle creature was the hardest OF all
his victims. for he treated her with such
continuous and unparalleled brutality that
even his own crew, hardened as they were
in crime loudly protested.
DIFFERENTIATED BY VIRGINIA.
The final extermination OF this scourge is
attributable 10 Virginia. The outraged
planters. despairlng of redress from their
own government, entered secretly into ne
gotiations With Governor A. Spotswood,
who. fortunately for them. presided at that
time so ably over the affairs of their sister
colony. That brave patriot and sagacious
statesman instantly issued a proclamation,
dated at Williamsburg. Offering IA large re-
ward for the apprehension of the pirate,
and at the same time concerted measures
with the commanders of two men-of-War

dispatch two vessels of light draft. capable
of navigating the shallow waters Of Pamlico
Sound and pursuing the pirate in the covss
aud inlets where he secreted himself
These vessels were manned by picked crews
and the command OF the difficult and danger.
