Mr.. Higginson wrote, in part: Set
ting aside Goethe, who belongs rather to
the previous century,, think that one
must go back to Scott % as the leading
influence of the first half of the nine
teenth century Yet when we turn to
Heine 81 we come to the man above all
others who has influenced, more than any
English writer, the modern style in lit
erature He alone proved it possible to
be French and German i'll one, to mingle
the brilliancy of one nation with the
penetrating thought of the other. Turn
ing now to poetry, we see that Words
worth go whom Southey patronized and
Byron ridiculed, was creative in the past
sense, because he created his own fame.
When we torn to the abstract philoso-
plVers, we must dismiss Kant like
Goethe, as belonging rather to the pre-
yious century, and name by preference
Hegel, "a, the last of the great quartette
of German metaphysicians. Turning fin
ally to those who have dealt with social
questions, it seems to me that Robert
Owen. o. as the direct source of the
modern cooperative method must be
named in preference to those, who, like
Saint-Simon, first launched Socialism into
the air. Passing now into the second
half of the century, the name of Darwin
o. of course leads all others, and near
est to him comes Emerson, %, not from
depth OF -tnOdSnI, pul from lllS eAlId-
ordinary way in which his influence has
permeated Literature so that one may
pick up a book that seems wholly re-
mote from him in tone and theme and
still find him unexpectedly quoted. Fic-
ton has now largely taken possession of
literature, and if the ultimate aim OF
fiction is, as it should be, to create the
| character which comes closest to nature,
the first rank must be given to Tolstoi
| (S) I should place Hawthorne go next to
| him, or in one aspect above him, as
! working in a higher atmosphere through
| the construction of types and figures,
| which, though never actually human,
| take an unequaled hold on the imagina-
| ton; and I should close with Browning
| QO)as SURPRISING all other poets in wealth
| and in range. and equaling the high
| est, sometimes, in melody. To sum up
| the leading Intellectual influences for the
last century would be as follows: For
the first half of the century, Scott, Heine,
| Wordsworth Hegel and Owen; for the
| second half, Darwin, Emerson, Tolstoi
Hawthorne ard Browning"

THE FRENCH REVOLUTION.

THE FRENCH REVOLUTION.
The French revolution was simply a
consequence of the American war for in
dependence and was characterized by
greater bitterness from the fact that the
condition of the French masses was so
much worse than that of the American
colonists- The birth of popular liberty
In Europe introduced so disturbing a fac
tor in the affairs of the 1old world that
it is highly improbable peace could have
been preserved even had there been no
military genius like Napoleon to guide
the march of the French armies. The
first coalition against France, in 1872, was
an effort of the International Moderates
to suppress the Radicals and restore the
previous order of things, an order which,
unknown to those who struggled for it's
preservation, had already. passed away.
The battle of Valmy showed the impossi-
bility at that time of Invading France
and the war then begun lasted, with
short intervals of peace, until the terrible
field of Waterloo in 1876

there was no talk about political parties,
for, aside from Wing, understood to mean
a man in favor of American independ-
ence, and Tory, a man in favor Of the
continuance apf British rule. political
parties had Vho existence. Slaves were
held in all states, and slave trading was

Human beings were openly bought and
sold, and kidnapping Indian children for
slaves was lucrative business.

WANT NO TROUBLE.

London, Jan. 19-The Nicaraguan
treaty was never rated in public mind
here as an issue Of overwhelming i'm
p%ortance. It was completely forgot
ten before the supreme topic. But to-
days developments confirm the fore
casts of the Associated Press, that the
cabinet is likely to hold the question
under consideration during several
meetings. In the meantime the chief
topic of Englishmen appears to be for
an amicable settlement.

London. Jan. 18-The amended
Hay-Pauncefote treaty was discussed
at a p%rotracted conference today. The
secretary of state for foreign affairs,
Marquis Of Lansdowne, has taken no
action SO far. He probably will en-
body the result of the deliberations in
a dispatch OF in an interview with the
United States ambassador, Mr..
Joseph H. Choate, Monday, Or later.
The exact decision arrived at is
guarded with secrecy. An impression
exists that the cabinet confined itself to
authorizing Lord Lansdowne to have
q further conference with Choate.

SHIP SUBSIDY MEASURE MUST
WAIT.
NO CHANGES IN TARIFF
Senate Caucus Decides Not to
Touch Dingley Bill This
Session.

Washington, Jan. 18-There has
been another lightning change in the
subsidy plans. These changes come
at the rate of several each week, SO
that the last one does not excite special
comment.
The senatorial caucus today, con
trary to the plans of yesterday, did
not touch the subsidy directly. Sen
ator Hanna announced in caucus that
he expected the support of all re-
publicans for the bill, which, it is
agreed, should remain as the unfin-
ished business Of the senate, and that
was all.
This sudden determination not to
ask caucus action Oh the subsidy bill
comes as a result of a conference last
night of Hanna, Frye, Mcmillan and
several other subsidy advocates.
They decided it would be unwise to
push the matter in caucus until the
bill has been finally amended.
Many amendments are pending and
after they are disposed of and the bill
is in such form as to command the
support of a large number of the mem
bers, a caucus may be called to cinch
matters. This is now thought better
than trying to pledge the members to
a bill which is ~confessedly incomplete
and unsatisfactory in many details.
The caucus decided this morning
that there would be no changes in the
Dingley bill at this session, which
disposes of the reduction of duty on
hides until next winter. Practically
every shoe manufacturer in the coun-
try has petitioned for the wiping out
Of the 10 per cent duty on hides.
It was also decided not to fix a day
for consideration Of the Nicaragua
canal bill pending negotiations on the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty.
