KIPLlNG'S "DERELICT."
The Wreck Of tAe veepdam Recalls &
Poets Iuaprsixive Verses.

The Wreck Of the veendam Recalls the
Poets I1sprsisive Verses.
The wreck of the Veendam brings to
mind Kipling's poem. 1.-The Derelict,' in
which he represents impressively the
abandoned hulks, adrift in the seas as the
..bawds of all disaster" Some of the
POEMS verses foil w:
Man made me, and my will
Is to my maker still,
Whom now the currents con. the rollers
Lifting-forlern. to spy
Traile1 smoke along the sky;
Falling-afraid, lest any keel come near!
Blind Is the hot blue ring,
Through all my points l swing
Swing, and return to shift the sun anew.
Blind in my well known sky,
heat the stars go by,
MoGking the PROV that cannot hold one true!
I>tfiat was clean to run
Nh race against the sun,
Strength on the deep, am bawd to all disas-
WHIPPED forth BY night to meet
And with = kiss betray her to her master!
Bulwer on the Huguenots.
Looking over volume of Bulwer the
other day." writes David Creedon in the
Casket, II met the following in a foot
note to his play of 'Richelieu.' 1t is in
teresting, as Protestant contradiction of
the statement so often made that the
Huguenots were victims of religious per-
secution. There was, indeed, a large
ness of view in his hostility to the French
Huguenots, which must be carefully dis
tinguished from the intolerance of the
mere priest. he opposed them not as a
Catholic, but as a statesman. The
Huguenots were strong Republicans and
had formed plans for dividing France
into provincial commemorative; and the
existence of Rochelle was absolutely i'll
compatible with the existence of the
French monarchy 1t was a second CAPT
tai, held by the Huguenotss claiming ill.,
dependent authority and the right to
treat with foreign powers. Richelieu's
final conquest was marked by human
ity that had in it nothing of the bigot.
The Huguenots obtained a complete am
nesty, and had only to regret the loss of
privileges and Notifications which could
not have existed with any security to the
rest of France"

One might as we'll try to suppress the
Niagara Falls as to suppress coquetry in
Partisan women. Even in her grief the
French woman is conscious of appear
ance. This is noticea bic. in the latest, al
most enviable fashion of wearing the
widows veil, mode well calculated to
materially reduce the period of widow
hood, if followed by even passably
good looking woman. In the first place
the veil is made of the real old-fashioned
crepe, excepting that it is a trife more
transparent than formerly. The cap is
very small, Marie Stuart shaped, and
set back of the pompadour, from which
it is separated by decided fluffy white
ruche. No part of the veil comes over
the face, excepting perhaps during the
first few days Of bereavement. The
young widow is not forgetful of fash
ions promise of train for the coming
season. Accordingly she let's her veil
fall back from her bonnet, deity loops
it up and catches it invisibly at the waist
behind, when it is allowed again to flow,
falling to the hem of the skirt. Those
who have seen the graceful arrange

Save Our Public Men

Collateral demands upon public char
tiers are greater by far in this country
than elsewhere. The scholar in Ger
many has due opportunity to pursue his
scholarship unmolested. In England a
statesman, apart from social recreation
and sports, is accorded his full time and
strength for his most important duties
In France the artist and the author are
guarded and protected by common con-
sent. In London the editor in office
hours is as inaccessible to the ordinary
caller as the Queen herself; and outside
of Office hours he is altogether pri-
vate person. AS for our own country,
one is sometimes disposed to take the dis
couraging views that are so warmly APP
preciative of everybody who does any
thing creditable enough to gain some lit
tie public recognition that henceforth we
are unwittingly engaged in conspiracy
to prevent that poor fellow from doing
anything again that shall embody his

Improvements are the order of
the day in Sinner. A car load of
gin machinery was received here
last week from Runge " Co. at
Cuero. Messrs. Irautwein and
Wolters will put in four 70-saw
Pratt gins, also one Murray ele-
vator. 5. Stephan will also put in
four new 70.saw gins of the same
make. BY this it will be seen that
Sinner will have better facilities
than ever for ginning and baling
the farmers cotton. There is no
lack of enterprise in Sinner.
