TEN GREATEST MEN.
The List Includes None Hut English.
 men and Americans of the Nineteenth Century.

Who are the ten greatest men ot the nineteenth century? This is a favorite conundrum just now across the water, but we have seen only one attempt to solve it in print. An Eng fish periodical names Abraham Lin coin, the statesman: Grant, the sol dier; Darwin, the scientist; Thack- cray, the novelist; Herbert Spencer, the philosopher; Jenner, "the most commanding figure in medicine;' Froebel, the educator; Beethoven, the musician; and Morse and Stephenson, first masters of electricity and steam.
 It is easy to imagine, says Youths Companion, the frantic objections a Frenchman - for instance would raise to a list which mentions not one of the masters of art and life of his own nation. Noting that the list is restricted to Englishmen and Amer jeans, men of the Anglo-SaNon race, and to Germans-frst cousins, so to speak, to that race-he would allege that here was another outcropping of that self-satistied egotism which makes the Britisher'' or the "Yan- kee" so disagreeable a neighbor. ,;
 The real truth is that a man, wheth- Englishman or Frenchman, who undertakes any such classification, en- gages in perilous enterprise. He may not hope to satisfy anyone but him. self. Probably eyery thoughtful stu dent of our own tine has at least one hero whose name s2a,a Would vote to substitute for sottS mime given above.
