JUDGE CLAKk'S NEW WORKS.

DUE Cha Rk = NEW NORhN.
The Wilmington Messenger say
this of recent literary performances
OF Hon. Walter Clark, Association
Justice of the Supreme Cou t.
The Merriam Company, publishers
at Fifth avenue, in New York City,
have recently issued the third volume
of "Recollections Of the Private Lie
of Napoleon, by Constant, Premier
Valet de Chambre. Translated 10y
Walter Clark Illustrated. 1t is a finely
gotten up work mechanically, and the
translation is certainly smooth piece
Of English workmanship. We are IN
able to say how faithful to the original
it is, but We suppose it is good work
throughout. We have read the first
two volumes with exceeding interest.
and are reading the third with una
bated pleasure. We do not Think any
one can exactly know Napoleon until
he reads Constant. We have been
reading biographies and sketches of
that masterful genlns-great in peace
as in war-through the decades. But
until we read Constant, we did not
really understand a marvellous char
acter. In his pages you see the man
at home as well as abroad. There was
great deal that was good as we'll as
hot ,ph, NO
trious Italian. He had great defects
of character and great virtues. He is
a very different man from. the por-
traits presented in many books, and
notably in SCOTS life, Professor Seely's
book and English histories and biog-
raphies generally. A fine spirited and
entertaining one volume work by Nor
ris, an Englishman, and published
within year or SO, is the only work
we ever read from an English author
that was fair and just to Napoleon, the
greatest man in all modern history, or
ancient history either, after Julius
Cesar. Like that great man Napo-
leon had some sad blemishes marring
greatly character that was colossal
and might have been admirable.
There were many resemblances between
Alexander and Napoleon. Read Con-
slant and then read Plutarch's life of
Alexander, and you may be impressed
with an identity of character in some
striking particular. Judge Clark has
done us a favor in translating these
very interesting volumes, and placing
it in our power to read them.

improbability of another race with our
English cousins in the near future, 1t is
gratifying to know that there are other
yacht builders and yacht sailors noross tho
water who may compete with us for SUI
prcmacy In yachting. 1t Is not unlikely
that In our Gallo friends we may find
"foemon worthy Of our STEEL" and that
there may come from tho Seine a craft fit
to meet the best product Of tho Herreshoffs
or any other shipbuilders in this ooun-
try. A meeting Of French and American
yachtsmen in our waters would be pleas
ing event, and thore would doubtless be
an absence Of the bitterness and recriini-
nation which characterized the last inter
national race
For decade or moro English and
American yachtsmen have Hattered them
selves that they wero tho only people in
the world who really knew anything about
tho building, and sailing Of pleasure oraft.
Tho recent Mediterranean and Kiel regat-
tas and the occasional victory of some
French, Austrian or German boat over
their English or American built rivals,
however. seem to have opened our eyes to
the fact that there are other countries
which, with n little practice and training,
will soon be able to give us q good fight
for tho Americas cup or any other inter
national trophies which may be open to
challenge. OF all the foreign clubs mono
has done moro for tho sport than tho I'm
ion des Yachts Francois, which is to
France what the New York Yacht club is
to the United States OF the Royal Yacht
squadron to England
The Union DIES Yachts Francois Is in the
field for contest with tho yachtsmen of
this country and presents as trophy the
beautiful and artistic French America a
CUP.
Admiral Baron Lage (Jean Theobald),
president Of the Union des Yachts Fran
Gals, Is tho grand old sea salt of the French
navy. Born in 1916, he entered tho serv.
leo when boy, and the greater part of his
active career was spent in the days of sail
ing ships. Tho story of his life is his
tory of tho naval battles of Franco, in tho
course of which he was continually adding
to his reputation as tactiCian and sea-
man. Tho Crimean campaign was n spe-
clal field for the exercise of his taients'nnd
contributed considerably to tho lustcr of
his fame. In 1874 he received tho stars of
admiral and retired in 1880 full of honor
and dignity. Admiral Lago is n com
mander of the Legion of Honor
Baron Lago was one Of tho original
members of the Yacht Club of Franco and
was, in 1885, elected by tho suffrages of
his colleagues to the important position of
president of the Conseil Maritime. In
this Office he, by his tact and geniality, so
concilinted tho friendship of all that in
1883 no was unanimously selected to I'LL
the post Of president of the club. This
position no occupied until tho period when
he and all tho rest Of tho yachtsmcn left

konnol club The prince likes to exhibit
his dogs quietly; hence the fact that they
are not moro generally heraldod.
Another foreign exhibitor Is Thomas B.
Gregg of ireland, who brings over tho
genuine Irish ''terrier,'' and Francis
Craven, whose English collies are famous
in dogland.
One of tho largest exhibitors this yenr
will bc j. Pierpont Morgan, whose lovo
for dogs is carried to tho extent OF placing
kings ransom in his kennels annually.

as well rs high bred.
Richard Croker Owls n very clover little
fox terrier Of considerable merit which ho
enters annually. Tho dog has never taken
prize, but is much admired by visitors.
There arc great many lGdy exhibitors
this year. The largest one is Mrs Som
of New York, who is the greatest lady
breeder of America and second in tho
world only to the Princess of Wales, who
has larger kennels, but does not personally
suporintond tho dogs all tho year around
as Mrs. Sem does.
Two of the most valuable Sem dogs are
King Charles and Blonheim, dogs of for
eign birth. Blenheim was born at Blon-
helm castle and was bred by tho late Duke
of Marlborough.
Among tho prominent New York society
women whose dogs will be on exhibition
will DO Mrs. James Kernochan, Mrs.
George Gould, Mrs. Charles r. Homo and
Mrs. Frederick Gebhard, each of whom
possesses kennels Of high bred specimens
Of the canine.
Tho entries indicate that there will be a
large exhibit Of field dogs-English and
Irish settlers and pointers, foxhounds and
beagles. Among those likely to attract
the especial attention of sportsmen arc tho
Llewellen settlers, n representative typo of
which is seen in Count Featherstone,
owned by Mr.. Charles f. Tretbar of New
York. Count Featherstone is descend
ant Of the famous Llewelien Dan, and, in
turn, Of the not less famous Gladstone,
