no longer command the sincere respect
even OF the European mind. The art Of
Europe is as cTuue IN its way as that of
America, because il does not relate TO ideas
that are now or ever again can he poten-
tial over the human mind.
The most powerful and artistic fiction
OF modern times, perhaps of any period,
whether judged by the extent TO which II
has been read, dramatiZed, acted, initiated
ana translated, or by the depth of its revo-
lutionary effects on society. continues this
writer, is Uncle Toms CABIN" 1t
drew much of its power from the hunger
the world felt for new art that should
be American. Irving wrote volumes IN
England, Spain, MolIammedan histories,
etc, all of which are passing into waste
paper because they have not the originality
of true art, while Ills name lives only ip
that small portion of his work whose theme
was American, viz, The Legend OF Sleepy
Hollow" Rip Van Wrinkle" and "Diedrich
Knckerbocker." Humboldt showed that
travel and scientific observation were fine
arts, and that the best field for their prac-
tice lay in America. Audubon lifted the
study of birds into Il fine art. and found no
field necessary 90 its practice but A merica.
Lowell Mark Twain and Bret Harte have
that the European world itself is inquir-
ing whether all real humor is not eXclu-
sirely an American art.

annette for war NJ. Stanley achieved
mis- success largely through his labOrs on
the New York Herald, which was at
that time deemed the most sensational Of
metropoIita journals. He seems too
ready to forget the facts thatmade possible
his various achievements. Mr.. Stanley
probably looks with greater care at the
American papers which are most pushed
abroad, and they are usually those of the
sensational order.-Fourth Estate.
Gustave Flaubert and Maxine Du Camp

We're twenty-one, and agreed that they

made little. They agreed that at forty
man is used up. He may remember, OUT
he cannot create. he must give over all
thoughts OF adding to the pleasure OF man
kind, although some useful occupation
may be found that will add to its knowE
edge, and that will lead the laborer peace
fully TO a quiet grave. For example, they
thought that some investigation or the
pathological connections OF the romance
languages would probably meet the ne
cessties of the case. As for the nineteen
golden years, they agreed to spend nine
