TEN BEST SHORT POEMS.
The List Which Has the Approval OF
Charles A. Dana.

To correspondent who had asked
1t to name the best ten short poems
in the English Language the New York
Sun replies: Before the choice is at
tempted, we must agree what poem
is short. Compared with the great
epiCs, Comus and Soharb and Rustum
are short. Compared with the latter,
Lycidas and the Pied Piper are short.
If these four were eligible they would
have to be among the ten. LAllegro
and Blenheim are shorter still. But ip-
terpreting our correspondents wishes
by his words, we will choose from the
truly short only. In so doing, it will
be well to say that, to prevent the list
from being swamped by Shakespeare
or Milton, we will take but one poem
from each. Again, that one will be
chosen somewhat arbitrarily without
prejudice to it's rivals. With these pre-
limnary explanations we venture upon
selection:
Sonnet:
when in Disgrace" Shakespeare
Bannockhurn .........................B Burns
The Tiger ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. Blake
Pibroch of Donald Dhu Scott
BuGle Song ......................,Te .,Tennyson
Sonnet:
when l Consider" ...............M Milton
HohenliEden .....................Ca Campbell
Brahma Observation-Disclosures. Emerson
At the Church Gate .......... Thackeray
Gunga Din neutrality-suspicious.. .kiplng
The list of others, running from more
unalloyed sentiment to more intense
and purely distilled poesy. is by no
means brief. But looking among the
short poems bearing the divine stamp
of poetic genius, for the vivid, the
picturesque, the lyrically complete, the
intellectually, impressive, and the pas
sionately inspiring, the ten given
| above are certainly very powerful
claimants for their places. And what
a marvellous lot they are!

THE FUSS OVFE AHMOK PLATE.

In our opinion an amount of clamor is
being made over the price the Govern
ment pays for armor- plates for our war
vessels that the case does not warrant.
1t is one of those cases in which the
demagogue can make a great show of
protecting the pocr oppressed peo-
pie from trusts and rich spolia-
tors. and the demagogue never foregoes
an opportunity TO do this Even though
the present armor plants charged the
Government an unreasonable price for
armor, through an agreement between
all of them that they would not manu-
facture armor for less than a certain
sum. still. the aggregate amount in which
the Government would be mulcted, would
not justify the measure that is proposed
by way Of relief We are building war
ships so slowly and we. therefore pur-
chase so little armor each year. that the
excessive charge, even though it be as
excessive as Populist Butler Of North
Carolina would represent IL. would be no
great sum Of money. But it is impossible
the charges can be as excessive as they
are represented TO be. If they were the
pool amongst the armor manufacturers
would certainly be broken, as the steel
rail pool was broken. Some member of
the pool would find greater profit in do
ing the work for less than the pool price.
and he would be sure TO XIX out OF
traces. The fact that none does this is
very strong evidence that what the armor
manufacturers say is true. They say
that their pronts upon Government con-

This Is an age Of advertising and per-

for city as 1t is for an individual to
send its representatives among :he people
and drum, IL it would increase its trade.
All sorts Of inducements have 10 be offer
ed TO attract visitors, and New York is
to-day one OF the most active drummers
in the United States. The fact that the
Southern ports have been drawing away
from New York so much of its grain
trade has aroused the live men Of that
city to the necessity of eXertins them
selves in behalf Of increased business.
We mentioned some time ago the fact
that a movement had been inaugurated
In New York. the design Of which was
to attract more merchants TO the city by
Offering as an inducement cheap fares
over the railroads. The movement has
so far progressed as that New York is
now offering. especially to merchants Of
the South. a round-trip ticket at one and
one-third Of the regular fare. In other
words merchant visiting New York
buys a straight ticket at scheduled rates.

turn ticket at one-third the straight re-
turn fare. As a consequence. large
number Of merchants from Georgia are
In New York to-day. and the Herald Of
yesterday gives them a cordial welcome
In an editorial paragraph, as follows:
Our merchant visitors from Georgia
are enjoying TO the fun the pleasures
which New York affords and New York
Is happy when extending welcome TO
these representative business men of the
South.
Let more OF them come New York

them OF giving all merchants using these
tickets stop-over privileges.
This is a matter which Richmond can
not AFFORD TO ignore. There is little doubt
that some of the merchants who have
been tradlr with this city will take adj
vantage Of the cheap rates which the
Northern ciiios are Offering and will 20

plies. But II Richmond will bestir her
self. and will take the cue which New
York has given. she may profit instead
OF losing by this movement.
We doubt II 1t would be possible for
Richmond TO get the stop-over privilege,
but she may get something better. We
see no reason why with proper eff :orts,
Richmond may not secure from the rail
roads the same concession In rates that
New York has secured. so that we may
offer even greater Inducements TO the
Southern merchants than can the cities
