MRS. BROWNING TO POE.
The English Poetess Had a Great Admira.
 ton For sThe Rayen."

The following letter from Mrs. Brown ing, then Miss Barrett, to Edgar Allen Poe is printed in The Century:
 5 wIMpoLE ST, April 1848.
 DEAR sIR-Receiving . book from you seems to authorize or at least encourage me to try to express what I have felt long before-my sense of the high honor you have. done me in Glleg- ible) your country and of mine, of the dedica- tion of your poems. It Is too great distinc- tion, conferred by a hand of too liberal gen erosity. I wish for my own sake were wor- thy of it. But may endeavor, by future work, to justify a little what cannot deserve anywise now. For it, meanwhile, may be grateful, because gratitude is the virtue of the humblest. ass
 After which imperfect acknowledgement of my personal obligation may l thank you as another reader would thank you for this vivid writing, this power which is felt. Your "Ra- ven" has produced sensation, a Gift horror" here in England. Some of my friends are talk en by the fear of it and some by the music. hear of persons haunted by the 'Nevermore, !" and the acquaintance of mine who has the mis- fortune of possessing "bust of Pallas' never can bear to look at it in the twilight think you will like to be told that our great poet, Mir. Browning, the author of "Paracelsus" and the ''Bells and Pomegranates, " was struck much by the rhythm of that poem.
 Then there is a tale of yours (t'The Case of M. Y ValQenar Wnlcn l uO nOb llilu III billS volume, but which is going the round of tho newspapers, about mesmerism, throwing us all into "most admired disorder" and dread full doubts as to whether .'it can be true,' as the children say of ghost stories. The certain thing in the tale in question is the power of the writer and the faculty he has of making horrible improbabilities seem near and famil- jar. G& w
 And now will you permit me, dear Mir. Poe, as one who though stranger is grateful to you, and has the right of estecming you. though unseen by your eyes--will you permit me .o remain very truly yours always,

These Are Facts.

During the past 70 years the rate of wages in
England has steadily declined. From the ta-
bles of exports it is learned the exports of the
United States under protection laws increase
more rapidly than do exports under English
free trade laws. Statistics show % paupers to
every 1000 of population in England and only
III to every 1890 in the United States-Henry
Cabot Lodge.
And yet the statesmen from the south
tell us that the marvellous prosperity of
this country for the past years stands
for nothing. They say we must permit
free competition in our markets with
all the world, no matter if it does result
in pauperizing labor and closing the
shops and factories of the country.
These tariff thinkers of the south are ac-
tuated by desire to get even with the
great north, and thus eagerly embrace
the delightful theory of free trade.

HILL ON CLEVELAND.
The Senator From New York Gives Cleve-
land Some Hard Blows.

| The Senator From New York Gives Cleve-
land Some Hard Blows.
In his great speech on the Wilson bill
in the senate April 9, 1894, David B.
Hill proceeded to slice up Cleveland and
his secretary Of state for their action in
regard to Hawaii:
OUR FOREIGN POLICY.
1t is not denied that some mistakes
have occurred Our foreign policy, espe-
| cially that relating to Hawaii, it must
be admitted, has not met the expecta-
lions of the people. A sense of humilia-
ton prevailed when the project for the
restoration Of deposed monarchy was
unfolded by the administration, and
qualification ensued when its abandon
ment or failure was reluctantly an
nounced, influenced largely by an
aroused public sentiment.
Those are pretty plain facts and ex-
cellent Republican doctrines.
A BLUNDER is WORSE THAN A CRIME.
THAT unfortunate contemplated pol
icy was a blunder, and a blunder is
sometimes worse than a crime. 1t was,
however, the natural consequence which
might well have been anticipated from
that other mistake in placing the de-
partment of state in charge Of a Repub-
lican statesman, distinguished and es-
rimable though he may be, whose pub
lie services have always been identified
in opposition to the Democratic party,
who was without sympathy for its ira
ditions and purposes, and whose politi-
cal convictions upon the disputed public
questions Of the day, if changed at all,
are carefully concealed"
1t will hardly be claimed, however,
that Mr.. Gresham has voiced any Re-
publican sentiment in his astonishing
acts regarding that country. Republic
an sentiment is all the other way.
DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE.
1T is to be regretted that the presi-
dent should not have been able to find
in his own party some safe and honored
statesman in whom he and his party
could have placed confidence, one of
Democratic instincts and training, whose
Management of foreign affairs would
have reflected credit upon the country
and would have avoided the promulga-
ton of that unAmerican policy-a de-
parture from Democratic precedents--
which was sought to be forced upon an
unwilling people. In this view of the
situation our opponents must accept
some share Of the responsibility for the
blunders committed in our foreign af-
fairs.
Cleveland will enjoy being informed
that his wicked ex-Republican secre-
tary Of state has led him astray. If his
acts do not meet Mr. Hills approval,
no more do they meet that of the Re-
publicans, but as they have been form
ally approved by the Democratic major
ity they must be considered as the Dem
ocratic doctrine. 1t would be rather
hard on the Republicans to attempt to
shoulder off Gresham's actions onto
them because he had been once of that
party and had gone over to Cleveland.

About the Situation.

Along in 1868 Artemus Ward lee
tured in Philadelphia and in the course
of his remarks said: Il know a gentle
man who has watched the progress of
this war very closely, and who is GER
tainly able to give an opinion on most
matters, and asked him what he thought
of the war. He said that after watching
the movements of the army carefully
and reading the newspapers, making in
quiries of army correspondents, getting
possessed Of all the knowledge of the
heads Of departments and from the re-
liable Geographic corps at Washington,
he'd be ID if he knew what he did
think. +" A somewhat careful reading of
the Mugwump press of the country leads
to the belief that the secret opinion of
the bewildered editors of those organs
concerning the Cleveland administra-
ton might be expressed in precisely the
same language. The rest Of the people,
not including cuckoos, know exactly
what they think, and it isn't compli-
mentary. indianapolis Journal.

Is the despairing cry of thousands
afflicted with
Unsightly skin diseases.
Do you realize what this disfigura.
ton means to sensitive souls?
1t means isolation, sec'lSion.
tits bar to social and business success.
Do you wonder that despair Seizes
upon these sufferers when
Doctors fail,
Standard remedies fail,
And nostrums prove worse than use
less?
Skin diseases are most obstinate to
cure or even relieve.
1t is an easy matter to claim to cure
them, but quite another thing to
do so.
CUTlCURA REMEDIES
Have earned the right to be called
Skin Specifics,
Because for years they have met
with most remarkable success.
There are cases that they cannot cure,
but they are few indeed.

experiment.
