"a SAD

How Carlyle and Leigh Hunt Diff
fered Even About the Sky.
Leigh Hunt and Carlyle were once
present at a small party of equally we'll
known men. It happened that the con-
versation rested with these two, and the
others sat, we'll pleased to listen. Leigh
Hunt talked on in his bright and hope
full way, when Carlyle would drop some
heavy tree trunk across his pleasant
stream and bank it up with ~philosophio-
. ldoubts and objections at every inter-
val, but Hunt never ceased his joyous
anticipations nor saturnine Carlyle his
infinite demu1s. The listeners laughed
and a%pplauded by turns, and now fairly
pitted them against each other as the
philosophers of hopefulness and unhope.
fulness. The contest continued with
ready wit, philosophy, pleasantly and
profundity and extensive knowledge Of
books and character.
The opponents were go we'll matched
that it was quite clear that the contest
would last indefinitely, bat night was
far advanced, and the party now broke
up They all sailed forth, and, leaving
the close room, the candles and the ar
guments behind them, found themselves
under a most brilliant and starlight sky.
They looked up. Carlyle can have no
answer to this, thought Hunt, and
shouted: "'Therei Look at that glorious
harmony that sings with infinite voices
an eternal song Of hope in the soul Of
manr'
Carlyle looked up. They all remained
silent to hear what he would say. They
began to think he was silenoed at last,
but out Of the silence came few low
toned words in a broad Scotch accent:
"Eh, it's a sad night!"
They all laughed and then looked
thoughtful. There might be some reason
for sadness, too-that brilliant frma.
ment perhaps contained infinite worlds,
each full Of struggling and suffering
beings.

SPANISH COMMISSION
will Disclaim all Responsibility of
Both Branches of the Government
in Signing Peace Policy.

PARIS, Nov. 22.-There will probably be
no meeting of the peace commission to-mor-
row. A copy of the untimatum will not
reach Madrid until eight o'clock tomorrow
morning and it is not believed the cabinet
will act in time to allow an afternoon ses-
sion. Opposition to acceptance of the terms
on the part Of the Spanish delegates has in
creased since yesterday and majority of
the commission have recommended strong
ly to the Madrid government to reject the
American offer. 1t is improbable that this
advice will be adopted but Sagasta will
have difficulty in enforcing his peace policy.
1t is an open question whether they will
obey instructions to sign the treaty and it
is certain that they will disclaim all re-
sponsibilty OF the representatives of both
branches of Spanish government The ex-
pressed belief is the commission would de.
cline to accept the American offer but for
the explained decision that it must rest
with Madrid. There are no indications
that Madrid will not accept the best
terms obtainable
