Our Poets Silent.

The silence of the American poets in
these great days OF the nations history
is theme of much surprise and comment.
A writer in Literature" voices the gen.
eral complaint that while even the sordid
and reasonless Transvaal war has called
forth ringing strains from Swinburne and
Kipling, and piping airs from lesser
British poets, no American singer of note
has celebrated in verse the momentous
events of our national history during the
last 10 months.
He says: 1.-THE small coterie OF statisti-
cal BOSTON sonneteers surely do not voice
the sentiments of the whole mass OF
American poets-yet they are as still as
the voice of conscience at a meeting of
Tammany braves; as unproductive as
though they had been ordered out on
strike by grand master poet represent
ing Pegasus Union No. &C.,"
There are various reasons for this 81
lence. One of them is that our writers
of verse no longer find their inspiration
in great themes; that they care more for
the technique of their verse than for its
subject; that they are content to hide
poverty of thought under high-sounding
words; that they seek to initiate Brown
ing's obscurity without those depths of
meaning revealed by patient study in
even his most intricate lines.
In view of this prevalent vagueness OF
expression, the writer in Literature"
hints at the possibility that some patri.
otto American bard has really written a
great poem commemorative ofthe valiant
deeds of our nations recent heroes, but
that his poem has been mistaken as an
ode to spring, sonnet, lyric or epic on
hope. faith, immortality, or some other
of those abstract themes so dear to mod
ern poets.
If this be the case, the great American
public would fain see this poem trans
lated into plain, virile English, so that it
may answer the crying need Of an hour
"when even an Alfred Austin would be
acceptable to the American people"
If Mr.. Kipling's latest brutal war
ballad is a fair example of the martial
poetry to be evolved from present military
conditions our leading poets will do well
to persist in their silence-a silence that
has prevailed since Lowel's sublime
"Commemoration Ode, sounded the last
and highest note called forth by the
heroic struggle of our Civil War.
1t may be, after all, that our poets
have reached a stage Observation-Disclosures
they do not find in the savagery of wars
of conquest any true poetic inspiration.
Germany's great war of liberation
called forth noble strains from her most
gifted poets; the heroic struggle of Greece
for independence became fitting inspira
ton for Lord Byron and other poets, and
for our own Fitz Green Halleck, whose
marco Bozzaris" is one of the poems

AS Seen by Others.

Lewis Carroll, author of "Alice in
Wonderland" told with keen relish of a
rebuff given him by little girl who
tician.
Have you ever read Through the
Looking Glass?" he asked her, expecting
an outburst Of delight.
"Oh, dear, yes!' she replied. "It is
even more stupid than Alice in Wonder
land' Don't you think so ?"
Wordsworth could not conceal his
chagrin when he heard that his neigh
bors, the farmers, described him as "a
daft, idle body. who went moaning
about the hills, and had not wit enough
to raise field of oats"
The following anecdote of Henry Clay
was told by one of his personal friends
While making the journey to Washing
ton on the National road, just after his
nomination as candidate for the Presi-
dency, he was travelling one stormy
night wrapped up in huge cloak, on the
back seat of the stage coach, when two
passengers entered. They were Ken
tuckians, like himself. He fell asleep and
when he awoke found them discussing
his chances in the coming campaign.
What did Henry Clay go into politics
for?" said one. "He had good bit of
land he had a keen eye for stock. If he
had stuck to stock-raising he'd have been
worth his fifty thousand. But now he
doesn't own a dollar"
And" the great Kentuckian used to
add, "the worst of it was, every word Of
it was true"
1t was characteristic of the man that
at the next stopping place he took an
other coach lest his critics should recog
nize him and be mortified at their unin-
territorial rudeness.- From the Youths
Companion.

rIother Shipton as Prophet.

The horseless carriage has revived tn,
famous prophecy Of Mother Shipton. AL
the predictions, although written abou,
144S, have been fulfilled. except that a.
to the end of the world:
Carriages without horses shall go,
And accidents fill the world with woe.
Around the world mans thought shall fly
In the twinkling of an eye.
Waters shall yet more wonders do,
How strange but yet they shall be true.
The world upside down shall be.
And gold be found at the root of a tree.
Through hills man shall ride,
And no horse or ass be at his side
Under water man shall walk.
Shall ride, shall sleep. shall talk
In the air men shall be seen
In white. in black. In green.
Iron on the water shall float
AS easily as wooden boat.
Gold shall be found and shown
In lands now not kno wn.
England shall at last admit Jew,
And fire and water shall wonders do.
The world to an end shall come
In eighteen hundred and eighty one"
Although the last prediction failed,
And Dame Shipton h as been assailed,
Yet the end will surely come
Although 1t failed in eighty one.
