GRANT AND WASHINGTON.
Two Wonderful Serials which "The Cen.
tury Magazine Has Secured for 1897.


tury Magazine Has Secured for 1897.
One of the best friends that Gen
Grant ever had was Horace Iorter
There firstmeeting was at ChattGfnoogi
in the autumn of 1863. and soon after
Gen. (then Captain) Porter became ;
member of Grants staff and served witt
him constantly until Lees surrender
When Grant became president Horace
Porter was made his private secretary
and until Gen. Grant breathed his last
at Mount McGregor the two men were
close friends. Nor did Gen. Porter's
love for his chief cease with his death
forto him isduc the success of the move.
ment to raise the half million of dollars
which the Grant monument in River
side park will cost. The Inauguration
of the tomb will take place next spring
on Grants birthday, and Gen. Porte
will be the orator of the occasion.
During these years of intimacy with
Grant Gen. Porter kept a diary, and il
his moments of leisure he has arranged
his unique stories of anecdotes and
memoranda into a series of twelve ar
ticles, entitled Campaigning with
Grant" and The Century Magazine
has secured all rights in the series and
will print it during the coming year
Since the famous Century Wal
Series," for which Gen. Grant himself
wrote -four articles (the beginning OF
his 'Memoirs'), no magazine has had
such treat to lay before it's readers.
Another great serial in The Cen
tury is a novel of the American Revo-
luton, written by the well-known Phil
adelphia physician, DIR. s. Wier Mitch
ell, whose literary reputation is as high
as his standing in his own profession
The story is supposed to be the auto
biography of the hero, "Hugh Wynne,
Free Quaker" who becomes an officer
on Gen. Washington's staff. Social life
in the capital, Philadelphia, is most in
terestingly depicted, and the characters
in the story include Washington,
Franklin and Lafayette. The readers of
"Hugh Wynne, the Free Quaker" will
obtain clearer idea Of the Revolution
airy War than can be had from any
other single source. 1t is believed that

readers will be without ii in 1897. 1t
costs $500 year, not too high price
for what The Century gives, but
many people are arranging TO club

one dollar each, and securing the
reading of the magazine one week
in the month. The publishers advise
the making up of clubs early. Send

Many friends Of the preservation OF the Adj
rondack forests are earnestly opposed to bill
which has already been adopted by the Assem-
bly,. and which Is now before the Senate. This
proposed measure Is entitled "An act to provide
"for the Improvement Of the navigation of the
Hudson River, and driving Of logs and OF the
hydraulic power thereon. and to check freshets
therein and for the better supply Of water for
1.-THE Champlain Canal" From the title any
member Of the Assembly or the Senate might in
fer that the legislation suggested would be in
the public interest and for the benefit Of all the
communities affected in any way; but New-York-
ers, who are intensely interested In preventing
depredatiOns on the magnificent forests still re-
manning in the AdirOndacks, assert positively
that the proposed law would result In extensive
ravages among those forests.
1t has been work Of great difficulty to save
for the people Of New-YOrk those parts Of the
Adirondack region which ought to be protected
against every one who desires to enrich him.
SELF or to enrich an organization which he repre-
sents, by cutting off timber In the mountain
woods 1t is Of the highest importance that the
members Of the State Senate should scrutinize
this proposed measure with the greatest care.
Unless our Senators are convinced beyond
dispute that this bill really intends to
bring about public benefit and advantage,
and Is not meant to serve the purpose
OF manufacturers who are anxious to put
money In their pockets while working serl-
GUS detriment to the Adirondack region and to
the people of New-Y6rk, they certainly ought to
defeat the measure by an overwhelming ma
jority. SO many raids upon the Adirondack
region have been planned and have been car
ried out In previous years that II Is impossible
for our legislators to be too careful In such mat
tiers. They should be extremely jealous Of every
enterprise which aims at impairiDg the Integrity

do with the enforcement Of a rule which Is based
on propriety and which operates we'll so far rs
It operates at all.
The exclusion Of lobbyists from the Senate
and Assembly floors is highly desirable at all
times. but at this stage in the session their alb
scnce begins TO be douby precious. From this
time forward the pressure In behalf OF unwhoe-
some bills in general and slick little jobs In par
ticular will grow stronger every day. Honest
members Of the Legislature are entitled to pro-
lection from nuisance and the State Is en-
titled TO be protected as far as possible from
combinations which. though they are begun
elsewhere may be completed on the floor. The
Speaker has ample power to enforce the rules,
and ought not to need TO be reminded Of his
duty.

MUSIC AT COLUMBIA.

The splendid gift TO Columbia College OF
$4,000 to cndow chair Of music ought to re-
suit in an important increase In the influences
that make for culture ut the university. The
terms OF the gift are such as to allow Of great
freedom on the part Of the university author-
ties in its application TO the end desired by the
donor, and We have no doubt that they will
make the wisest use Of the endowment to secure
an addition to the college curriculum in har.
mony with the true purposes Of university edu-
cation. The details and the adjustment Of such
a course OF study are a matter for the earnest
consideration Of those who determine the uni
versity's policy There Is right and wrong
conception Of the manner Of administering in
struction In music In scheme Of liberal educa-
ton such as some Of the American colleges have
made their own. Fortunately. the subject Is one
beyond the need CT experiment. The value Of
the study OF music as means of culture and Of
widening the intellectual horizon has long since
won recognition. Its place In the English and
