0 OF THE RAVEN.

How Edgar A. Poe Came to Write tho
Poem that Made Him Immortal.
The story Of the growth Of any nota-
BILE thing is always n matter of com.
mon interest. Even to-day the minds
of the great historians have pondered
over the mysteries Of creation; have
attempted to deduce the processes by
which the dewdrop, the quartz crystal,
the blade of grass, or the universe
came to be what they are. So, too, in
the literary world there has always
been a keen study of motives and in
fiuences as they have been ut work In
the formation of this or that master
piece of rhyme, eas or fancy.
1t is sometimes more than the nero
inquisitiveness of the child who at
tempts to get at the works of a watch
that inspires literary students to solve
If they can the mental processes which
have produced the worlds MASTER
pieces in literature. But, after all, the
two inquiries have something in COM
mon; and, as men are but children OF
n larger growth, even those who do
not pretend to literary insight or
knowledge take keen pleasure in hear
ing for the first time the story Of some
literary work which has become q rec
ognized product Of genius. For that
reason it is likely that an article which
appeared In the Bachelor Of Arts re-
Gently under the title Of 1.-The Writing
of the Raven is likely to attract u
common interest among all classes Of
readers.
From the story, as told by Il. A.
Mathews. it appears that the fancy of
Poe had long been pursued by the
thought Of the perpetual melancholy
of the ravens croak. Ever since Poe's
boyish days at school in Stoke-Newing-
ton he seemed to dislike the ave and
to hear 'the sordid flap Of it's wings"
This recollection appears to have been
brought back to Poe's mind by the fig
ure of the raven in "Barnaby Ridge"
which had then been recently present
ed to the public. The poet confessed
something of this to Cornelius Math-
cws, from whose lips the story has
been handed down. The conversation
took place in the old Park tiicater in
New York. and the poets friend was
surprised to find him hardly all hour
later standing Oh a street corner in q
dreary winter rain ~scribbling on q
piece of paper.
1t was in that bitterly cold storm
that the poets fancy had at last found
utterance, and there, in the shrieking
winds and the singing sleet Of the al
most deserted street, the poet read
aloud "Thc Raven" The brooding
thoughts of months had at last grown
into something at which the world of
letters still marvels, for, despite itl
evident weaknesses, which verge dan.
gerously near the incoherent, "Thc
Raven" is n strong poem, and will live
much longer than many Of the pass

rifle and long continued. In fact, it
was nearly supper time before some
thing like order was restored. Then
the Justices voice was heard above the
roar of the crowd ordering an adjourn
ment until 10 o'clock the following
morning.
During the night, however, Bonner
evidently came to the conclusion that
discretion was the better part of valor,
for long before the hour fixed for the
resumption of the trial the careful
judge was seen ascending the noun
tain, his legs dangling on either side Of
Il patient pack mule.
He had n seat OF justice in Onion
Valley, many feet higher in the dir
than the river, and this he called his
higher court" where he sat to hear
appeals from his own decisions in the
lower tribunals.
Here he continued the case without
the presence of the defendant. and
gave Judgment, but was unable to en-
force it or to collect the desired costs.
At another time Bonner undertook
to hold court at Rock Bar, but he there
SO infatuated the miners that ne was
obliged to even more hastily adjourn
proceedings to his higher court in On
ion Valley.
Bonner sent his constable. Tom
Schooiey, to Rich Bar in 1852, to serve
q summons and attachment on n miner
living there.
After considerable difficulty Schooley
found his man, and, having made
known his business, proceeded to read
his papers.
The defendant was surrounded ut
the time by n number of fellow min
ers, who, one and all, laid down their
implements and listened to the read
ing. When 1t was finished they told
the constable, in the expressive Ian
guage Of the miners, to git"
After some hesitation he accepted
! the advice, but, as he started away,
was foolish enough 10 drop some Of
fensive remark. Instantly the miners
started for him with sticks and stones,
and. 1t is asserted, even TO the present
day, that the very best record OF n trim
up Rich Bar hill was that there and
then made by Tom Schooley.
