The CARLYLE Centenary.

Wednesday was born the mar
who made a deeper impression
upon the world than any writer
who has lived in the past cen.
fury. Thomas Carlyle was not
only the greatest writer theEng>
llsh speaking people, or any
other people, has produced in
the last hundred years, but he is
by far the mightiest personality
thao has appeared in literature
during that period.
1t is d recent fashion of some
critics to speak Of the decay OF
Carlyle's influence. A shallow
er remark has never been made,
even by a critic. Carlyle has
passed into the very bone and
hber Of English literature, into
the very body Of the worlds best
thought. He had an almost de
mOniacal conviction that he was
commissioned to say something
to men and he delivered his mes
sage with a fervid power which
has seldom been equalled. No
man eve did his work more
faithfully. none ever gave him
self up more absolutely to what
he conceived TO be his duty and
his mission. The words which
fell from his pen still throb and
burn with the Immortal pulse
and fire of genius. His French
Revelation" caused men to fall
IN love with history only to find
their ardor chilled because they
c)uld find no other history that
charms and thrills as does that
matchless work.
His Life Of John Sterling" is
the MODEST Of all biographies and
his ''Sartor R~esartus'' has stirred
the thought and kindled the i'm
aglEatlOn of men as has no other
book since ''Rousseau's Confess
Sions."
Carlyle himself considered his
Life Of Frederick the Great
his worthiest work. THAT book
nearly killed me-" he said He
gave fourteen Of the best years
of his life to it and when he fin
ished it there was no need re-
naming for any other life Of the
man who made the present glory
of the German empire possible.
1t is the authority to-day in the
German military schools for the
battles and the craftsmanship of
the great Kaiser, Cromwell
fascinated Carlyle very much as
Frederick did ard he helped to
give the Protector his true place
in history. Mirabeau and Ma
homet have never been reveal
ed to the world as wildly as he
shows them forth. and the most
beautiful portrayal of Burns is
that which we have received
from this other Scottish peas
ant.
Carlyle loved great men as
heartily as he despised little
ones. No man ever had a more
independent spirit, none ever
cared less for the accidents of
position or the presumption of
power, but he bowed in rever-
ence to true greatness. He was
the chief apostle of true hero
worship and if we had more
OF that spirit men would be no
bier and the world better. Car
lyle left an impression upon
mankind which is as clear now
it was when it was stamped by
his genius.
1t is not fading as some super
hclal observers pretend to be-
lleve, 1t IS the mark of a mighty
mind upon the thought and feel
lng Of the world, a mark which

age of gold and silver on a ratio

demagogy. No one knows better
than Senator Chandler that there
