One Of the Bravest Deeds of the War
Lieutenant Hebson sinking the Merri'

Instances Of Heroism.

When Lieutenant HobsOn and his men
sank the Merrimac in the channel Of
Santiago Harbor, the deed was almost
everywhere hailed as the bravest Of the
war. This was as 1t should have been,
but to our mind deed equally brave
was that represented in our illustration
taken from the current issue Of Harper's
Magazine, Cutting the Cables at Glen

JOHN BROWN AND HIS PERSONALITY
A. None whatever

THOMAS WENTWORTH HIGGINsoN's Cheerful
Yesterdays" book of delightful "reminiscences
has this concerning the impression made by Mr.
Brown in an interview by appointment in Boston,
March 1885,
81 saw before me man, whose mere appearance
and bearing refuted in advance of the strange
perversions, which have found their way into many
books and which have often wholly missed the
type to which he belonged. In his thin worn
resolute face there were the signs of fire which
might wear him out and practically did so, but
nothing of pettiness or baseness; and his talk was
calm, persuasive, and coherent. He was simply a
|high-minded, unselfsh, belated Covenanter; man
whom Sir Walter Scott might have drawn but
whom Nicolay and Hay, for instance have utterly
failed to delineate
To describe him in their words ''clean but
coarse" is coarse; is curously wide of the mark; he
had no more of coarseness than was to be found in
Habakkuk Muckelwrath or in George Elots
Adam Bede; he had, on the contrary, that religious
elevation which is itself kind of refinement, the
quality one may see expressed in many venerable
Quaker face at yearly meeting
Coarseness absolutely repelled him: he had little
humor, and none of the humorists temptation
towards questionable conversation.
Again to call him Ambitious to irritation" in
the words of the same authors, is equally wide of
the mark. l never could find in him a trace of
ambition"
He had been surveyor and knew the Alleghenies
like book. He would have liberated slaves in
families and groups by paths familiar to him
All this he explained to Mr.. Higginson and others
plainly and calmly and there was nothing in it that
we his friends in Boston, Theodore Parker, DR..
Howe, Stearns Sanborn and myself considered
either Objectionable or impracticable. M. H. H.

ON GOOD ROADS.

Catechism adapted to conditions in Loraiu county
n the good roads question.
Q. What class of people would be most benef-
ted by good roads?
A. The farmers.
Q. Why would the farmers be benefited more
than other people?
A. Because they make more use of the roads
than other people.
Q. If bonds were issued to raise money to build
roads, what proportion of the expense would
have to be paid by the farmers2
A. Less than one half, because the taxable
property of Lorain county is about $4,000,
600, and more than half of this amount is in
side of city and village corporations, which
are obliged to build their own roads.
Q. Then why should the farmers "kick," and
claim that it is a scheme of town people to
oppress the farmers?
A. There is no reason why they should, unless
they are misinformed as to the real situation
The towns provide their own roads, within
their corporate limits, and besides would pay
more than half the cost of good roads
throughout the county.
Q. Then is there any reasonable ground for OBJ
jecting by farmers to an issue of county
bonds for such purposes?
A. None whatever.

ACCORDING to Attorney General Griggs, the
gigantic trusts which have formed and are now
forming throughout the country are not under jur-
isdiction of the federal courts except in instances
where they interfere with interstate commerce. He
gives it his opinion that state Legislatures can
deal with them most effectually. If this true, it
would be wise plan for the Legislative bodies of
the various states to look after the matter this
winter, while they have nothing else to do We
mention this matter because the combinations of
capital are becoming very annoying to small manu-
facturers, who have right to "life, liberty and
pursuit of happiness"

By recent enactment of the North Carolina
Legislature 100000 negroes of that state are pract

it certainly will be; but in the meantime many of
those smart fellows who worked this iniquity, will

fight was taking place, iu the progress
Of the work Of separating the great
island from the rest Of the world. On
the night Of May 10, Captain McCalla Of
the Marblphead called for volunteers to
project the cable-cutters In their work.
The roll was soon fllad. and the next
morning the steam.launches Of the Mar
blehead and Nashville, towing the two
sailing launches under command Of
Lieutenants Winslow and Anderson,
started into the harb0r Of CieniuegOs
about quarter before seven. They car
ried squad Of marines picked for pro-
ficiency as marksmen, and a machine
gun in the bow Of each boat. The Nash
Vile and Marblehead then opened FIRE on
the Spanish batteries, and under cover OF
this, and that Of the steam launches, the
crews Of the other boats went to work.
It was a erllOus business, but the sail
,rs grapnel and cut successfully the
two cables they had been ordered to de-
strOy. They also found small cable,
but the grapnel fouled the bottom and
was lost. Meantime the Spanish FIRE
grew hotter and hotter, pouring out
from the batteries and machine-guns.
and the boats began to suffer. The we'll.
directed 6re from the rifles Of the
marines and from the 1-pounders kept
the Spanlards from reaching the switch
house which controlled the submarine
tOrpadOes, bnt launches could not con-
tend with batteries at close range, and
when the work for which they came,
and which had all been performed under
heavy fire, was done, they withdrew to
the ships. Nine men, including Lieu
tenant WinslOw, had been wounded,
some seriously, and three as was report
ed later, mOrtally. 1t was very gal
liant exploit, cody and thoroughly car
ried through, under a CALLING FIRE, and 1t
succeeded in its purpose Of hampering
and blocking in the enemy at the i'm
pOrtant port Of OienfuegOs, which was
the road to HAVANA from the southern
coast. II was another twist in the coil
which the United States was tightening
about Cuba.

W. J. BRYAN's explanation of his refusal to
accept the invitation of Perry Belmont to dine with
him and make speech, has the merit of frank
ness to say the least. We sincerely hope that the
democracy will not get into family before the
time for their national convention, it might en-
danger their chances before the people and make
themselves appear ridiculous in the eyes of-well,
say the republican party.

THE United States is ever to the front. On
the commission of arbitration to settle differences
between Great Britian and Venezuela, have been
appointed Justices Fuller and Brewer of the Su-

about six months. Besides these noted jurists,
Ex-President Harrison and Ex-Secretary of the
navy, Tracy are principal counsel for Venezeula in
the contention.

THE probable effect of Bryan's recent letter to
Perry Belmont will be to emphasize the coolness al

entire outfit next year. We give them fair warn
ing but some folks will be headstrong in spite OF
all you may say.

THE claims for spoliation Of property belonging
to non-combatants in Cuba, during the late war,
are assuming enormous proportions already and
the music has only just begun. Uncle Sam is get

the fate of the bulk of spring poetry and be con-
signed to the waste basket.
