GOETHE.

Goethe himself has said that the faults of
great men seem exaggerated as well rs their
virtues: and If we apply this principle to his
case it ought to remove much of tho odium
which rests on his name. Some OF the accusa-
tions which have been brought against him
are undoubtedly just; but it is equally certain
that others have originated either in party
prejudice or from the jealousy of his literary
contemporaries. He is certainly to blame for
his desertion of Frederika. and probably for
other firtations-though such behavior does
not always seem to initiate against o mans
character. Goethe's love affairs, though by
no means to his credit, were of quite differ
ent sort from the immortality of Byron, Burns
and Heine.
The accusation, however, that he was a
selfish aristocrat, unpaIriotic, insensible to
the sufferings of the poor and opposed 10 the
popular and reformatory movements of his
time, is untrue and unjust, and can easily be
proved SO. That he was an aristocrat cannot
be doubted; but so was Sir Walter Scott, Tor
they were both brought up and educated at a
period when aris tocracy was considered the
natural order of society.
OF all classes of people none would seem to
be SO untitted-from their tenderness of feel-
ing, their pictorial habit Of mind, and their
sensitive temperament--for practical politics
as poets and artists; and they have generally
recognized this themselves.-F. p. Stearns in
April Lippincor's.

SIX SHORT STORIES.

THE IMPUDENT COMEDIAN AND 9TH
ERS-By +. Fran fIrt Moore Chicago. H s
Stone d Co. For sale in this City by William
Doxey, Pa. ace Hotel. Price 81 50.
These half dozen tales ABOUT actors and
actresses are of commendabe merit. They
contain a great deal of witty dialogue, and
have that expert way of exceeding expecta-
ton at the finish, which is one of the main
features in the art of short story telling
However good the writer is at the start or in
the midst of his tale there is always climax
of cleN erness at the fnale, and things some
times take d turn wholly unlocked for. There
is a good story about how David Garrick and
Peg Wellington, while they were preparing a
play for the stage, found one of the actresses
too tame at rehearsal. In order to rouse this
girl TO more vim and passion in her playing of
the part of jealous woman a scheme was re-
sor ed to to make her jealous in reality. Then
she played stronger than they bargained for.
The story thai gives title TO the book is about
the famous Nell Gwyn. the favorite of Charles
ii of England. 1t abounds in wit. There Is a
scene of pathos in ii finer than the reader
would think possible when beginning to read
about the merry mistress of the prof1igate
king 1t tells OF how the man who loved her
honorably and selfsacrifcingly when she was
young girl, coming home from The sea hop
Ing to claim her for his bride, but finding the
woman for whom he had labored and hoped
so long in the possession of his king.

Story OF A HOLD-UP.

THE CREATE X. AND A. TRAIN ROBBERY-By
Paul Leicester Ford. New York. Dodd, Mead
q Co. For sale in this City by William Doxey,
Palace Hotel Price 81 20.
The author OF "The Honorable Peter Ster-
ling" won such wide favor with that book that
anything fresh by the same writer Is sure 10
ind a welcome from readers of fiction. This
little tale cannot compare with that great
political novel with which Ford made a repu-
tation a writer, but there was evidently no
pretense or even effort to make it anything
extraordinary. 1t is, however, a very read
able story. The plot involves a mystery, and
there is pretty love sffair running all
through the tangle Of the train robbery. which
adds much to the interest of the tale. There
is, too, surprise for the reader in the work
ing out of the motives for the hold-up and the
discovery of the unexpected class OF people
who were concerned in instigating and exc
cutting it. We note quite a problem of the
true point of honor brought into the nara
ton by the embarrassments OF the railroad
man who hunted down the perpetrators oil
the train robbery. He was in love with girl
who was implicated in the plot, and who was
as sweet, innocent and lovable no one
could conceive it possible for an accompltcs
of train robbers to be.

This is one of the Denison series of quarterly

written, but there seems TO be an attempt to

These clever writings of the prince of hum

always tedious when the raconteur is master

The English, he says, can write comic ones

stories the matter is sufficient to make, them

SAINT EVA-By Amelia Pain. New York
Harper & Brothers Price 81 rs.
The sweet saint of this story Is tho daughter
of an Italian father ana an English mother.
She is beautiful and SO excessively innocent
that she possesses not even that knowledge of
tho world to be derived from reading modern
novels. Her ideas are perfectly fresh and one
of her women friends has a way of asking her
questions a bout life and herself in a tone of
banter which greatly disconcerts her, but only
serves to amuse her querist. Eva falls in love
with Clayton Seaford, who is in many respects
a remarkable man, but appears not to have a
sense of appreciation. He proposes to her
and is accepted. Later he inherits a vast es-
tate and then his iancee's value is dimin-
ished in his eyes. She loves him too deeply to
bear his abandonment and her heart breaks.
"Sa mt Eva" is a sad though pretty story.

CHARACTER STUDIES.

THE LANDLORD AT LIONS HEAD-By w.
ID. Howells New York: Harper q Bros Eor
sale by William Doxey, Palace no Ell Price
81 70.
Something good Is of course, to be expected
when We see Howells' name asauthor. In
this novel there are at least half a dozen Char
acters drawn with skill. and the dialogue
with which the book is TT pete is clever. Inc
story opens with an account of an artists trip
into the country 10 paint the Lion Head Noun
tain He boards for three weeks at the Bnr-
gin farm and becomes so interested in the
characters he meets there that after five
wears absence in Paris he returns to the New
England farm to renew his acquaintance with
the country people whose history makes most
of the story.
At the very first passage the author executes
some of his fine work in characte drawing by
sketching the farmers boy JEFF, who is
strange mixture of good and evil. Jeff is aft
erward sent TO Harvard, and his wild and
tickle career and his entanglements with
women of various character take up goodly
portion of the volume. although the artist,
Westover, is by far the nobler character.
There is a liiellke scene in the parting be-
tween the artist and the farmers wife, when
there is fine display of courteous tact on the
part of the artist and of mple-miuded kind
ness on that of the woman she tries to bur
from Westover his fine picture of the noun
tain for part of the board money he had just
handed her. She is exceedingly liberal and
wants him TO demand just as much of the SIS
as he thinks is right.
Jeff falls in love with a country girl, Gym
this, who is far too good for him. There are
many interesting scenes between these two
and Jeff retains nobility enough to confess his
faults to her in order that she may not be de-
ceived into marrying him with the truths she
should know unrevea,ed. JEFF becomes at
tracted by another girl of lighter character
and the passages between them are interesting

That feature OF the story which is given

The ground for this curious study about life

two young men of very opposite temperaments
exchanging souls. They were great friends,
and before they effected the exchange were
both safe from the temptations OF the world.

more power than religion. "It governed him
with curious ease of supremacy and held

The author is an associate member of the

he narrates about bird life, and claims that
there is more stimulation to thought, more
