Mark Twain's Latest. Romance Of an
Esquimau Maiden.

A magazine is usually satisfied with
one strong feature for the month. The
Cosmopolitan, however, presents for
November no less than five very unus
ual ones. William Dean Howells gives
the first of the letters of the traveller,
who has been visiting this country,
from Altruria. We have read Mr..
Howells impression of the Altrurian;
but in this first letter we have the Altru.
rian s impressions of New York, with
some comments upon our government
and society, calculated to awaken the
most conservative minds. The second
feature of The Cosmopolitan is the por
tion of the magazine given up to color
work, no less than ten superb color
illustrations being presented for the
first time in magazine history, accom-
panying an article by Mrs. Roger A.
Pryor on Changes in Women's Cos
tunes. The third feature is American
Notes" by Walter Besant, who was
recently in America and is doing the
United States for The Cosmopolitan
la Dickens. The fourth feature is an
article by General Badeau on "The
Forms of Invitation Used by the Eng.
lish Nobility" The article is illustra-
ted by the facsimile of cards to the
Queens drawing room, to dinner at the
Princess of Wales, and to many leading
houses of England. Finally, we have
new and very curious story by Mark
Twain, called 'The Esquimau Maiden's
Romance. 1t is in his happiest vein
and is illustrated by Dan Beard. The
November number presents the work
of many artists, among whom are: c.

by the silver Senators, who declared
they preferred unconditional repeal.
The deck, therefore, has been cleared
for action. If the Democratic leaders
keep their promises they will without
delay prepare some constructive legis-
lation to maintain public credit and
provide for sound bimetalic currency.
Republicans were willing to vote for
the Sherman bond proposition or for
some safe and sound solution in the
line of that suggested by Senator Faulk-
ner Of West Virginia.
Surely repeal leaves the Republican
party in better shape than before. 1t
will bring out distinctly the real cause
of the industrial troubles. The anger
felt in all the silver and Southern States
will certainly be directed against the
Democratic party. That party is in
power and is responsible. The wrath
that pervades those sections is against
Grover Cleveland and the Administra-
tion-nOt against the Republican party.
Cleveland is in an unenviable position.
He was practically abandoned two
weeks ago by every Democratic Sena-
tor except four-Vilas, Caffery, Mitchell
and Mcpherson. All the rest of them
except Hill, whose refusal was not for
love of Cleveland, had signed or agreed
to sign the compromise. 1t was, there
fore, only by the firmness of Republi-
cans that solution was possible. Let
us hope they acted for the best inter-
ests of the country as whole, and that
subsequent legislation will vindicate
their action. The Press proposes Wig
orously TO keep up the fight for sound
and honest bimetalic currency.-New
York Press.

An Intelligent Tourist.

There are some people who know it
all and others who think they do, and
the latter are apt to make the greatest
show of knowledge.
One of this species stood near the bow
of Champlain steamer one day. He
had remarkable sunburned complex
ion. he carried guidebook in one hand
three railroad time tables and map in
the other, and he was bursting with
information. Finally, unable to stand
it longer, he approached small man
who was leaning thoughtfully over the
rail.
my friend, "he said impressively. 81
suppose you know that those gray and
fallen wells over there on the west shore
are all that remains of the world famous
Fort Ticonderogap"
mo, didn t know it, said the small
man simply.
well, sir, they are. 1t was on that
spot that the English commander was
called from his bed to surrender in the
name of the continental congress. 1t
was along these shores" added the
man with the ruddy complexion, wav-
ing the futtering time tables oratori-
cally, that the French and Indians
fought the English. Every stone, sir
is crowded with history"
"Ticonderoga, heyY" said the other
refectively. do you live up herep"
mo, l live in New York"
"Born here perhars?"
mo, SIR"
Travel up and down the lake pretty
often, suppose?"
well no this is my first trip, reluc-
tently admitted the owner of the guide
book.
"Tis heyY Well, l was purser of this
boat for nine years, and know every
foot of that shore. That over there is
Sampson dock, and Ticonderoga is 10
miles south of here. Anything else to
tell?"-Waverly Magazine.

The Lesson OF the Tea Party.

In times when too many even of our
educated men are losing faith in the
ideas and sentiments of the Revolution
ary War, doubling the foundation of
the Declaration of Independence, and
growing skeptical of our forefathers'
principles of freedom, justice, and the
natural rights of man, it is well for
US and for oil to 60 back to those early
days, and behold once more how grand
they were," writes Francis E. Abbot,
in the June New England Magazine,
in an article dealing with the times
and men and events of the Boston Tea
Party. 81 know not how any lofty or
generous or intelligent mind can con-
template the Boston Tea Party, yet fail
to reverence its great principle, its
great sentiment, its great significance,
its great story. If we have any sound
reason of being, it is surely not to
cherish any petty self complacency in
a patriotic pedigree, but rather to obey
its summons to more patriotic life,
lest, perchance, the glory of the fathers
may prove the shame of the sons. 1t is
our high privilege to recall mems
wandering minds, distracted and daz-
zled by the electric lights of modern
civilization, to the noble lustre of the
eternal stars-to those enduring princi-
pies and to those exalted sentiments
without which our vaunted civilization
is but feverish dream. No self con-
ceit of progress, whether in industry or
in commerce, or in the arts or in the
sciences, or in philosophy itself, will
ever quench the splendor of those
stars. Here and today, we lift up
grateful hearts because those stars still
shine upon us in our country's history,
lighting the way and tightening the
burden of our country's future. Be it
ours to broaden mems comprehension
and deepen mems veneration for those
stars-for the principles and the senti-
ments which render forever illus
trious the spirit of Samuel Adams and
the spirit of George Washington.

Tennessee, through Cumberland Gap
and reached Jonesboro in eleven days,
alone and unaided, and had.no COM
pany for single mile on the road.
After reaching home Cummings then
set to work to capture the Rev. Upton.
He finally heard of him preaching in
West Virginia, near Big Stone Gap.
Procuring the services of detective
and requisition from the Governor
of Tennessee, the detective with an as
sistant went to West Virginia, ard
found him holding revival. When
he came out of the church to baptise
his subjects they grappled with him.
He having pistol in his pocket he
shot one of the party in the foot, but
not until they had all rolled down the
bank into the creek, but they finally
got the clickers on him and brought
him to Jonesboro, and put him behind
the bars.
Court coming on in few days, the
case was continued until the April
term, and he was sent to Knoxville
until the next court At Knoxville he
had another revival, with about 16 or
IS conversions in the Jail. When court
convened il April he pleaded inability
to stand his trial, and it was postponed
until August. At the August term the
case came off and the Rev. John G.
Upton was sentenced to the pen for
ten years, and would have got twenty,
had the law not been limited to ten.
This is only few chapters in his
life, but is.a pretty good beginning for
a man of his age, not yet 35 years.

Most Crowded Spot ON Earth.

The Most crowded spot on earth is
the Manderaggio, which is one of the
quarters of Valetta, the capital of the
Island of Malta. In Valetta itself the
proportion is $4,000 to the square mile,
but in the Manderaggio 2544 people
dwell on surface two acres and a
half in extent, and this gives no less
than 636,OOO to the square mile, or
1016.6 to the acre. In the most crowded
town in Great Britain, Liverpool, the
proportion is only 117,4 to the acre.

INDIAN SUMMER.

The old gray year is near his term in sooth,
And now with backward eye and soft laid
palm
Awakens to golden dream of youth,
second childhood, lovely and most calm |;
And the smooth hour about his misty head
An awning of enchanted splendor weaves
OF naples amber, purple, and rose red,
And droop limbed elms down dropping
golden leaves,
With still half fallen lids he sits and dreams
Far in hollow of the sunlit wood,
Lulled with the murmur OF thin threading
streams,
Nor sees the polar armies overfiood
The darkening barriers of the hills, nor
hears
The north wind ringing with IA thousand
spears.

ber of Scribner's Magazine.

EDITOR HERALD:-What do you think
of the utility of discussion Of the CUES
ton OF etiquette? And would you allow
the use OF column of your progressive
journal for an interchange OF ideas and
PRONUNCIATION of the best rules pertaining
to this important science?
There are men and women in every
community-our own not excepted
whose superior knowledge OF the subject
wonld justly entitle them to the appella-
ton of social monitors; and from whom
we of the lower class could receive many
lessons and suggestions that, il properly
needed, would tend to abrase the rough
points in our social intercourse, enhance
our self-esteem and render us eligible to
admission to the arena of the higher
circles.

respectfully ask that some one who il
