The best thing that Emerson has left
rs is his spirit. fine and high. stern and
sweet. lie took life I'm a royal way,
and bore himself toward the eternal
mysteries with serene courage and
dauntless hope His essays. which are
his most characteristic work, have their
chief value not Hs revelations OF the
moral order of life, not as discoveries
Of the final meaning OF things, but as
disclosures Of his own spirit There f.
IN these essays an immense mass Of
truth, uttered ln picturesque and mem
orable words. There is In them also
an immense muss that Is not true. The
Emcrsonian hit and miss are upon
every page, and side by side with n
golden and perfect sentence one finds
son0rOus cccentrlcity. The origin Of
this strange compound OF oracle and
imposition I'm Emerson lies IN the con
fessiOnal character OF his writing He
speaks from within, and his generaliZa-
ti0ns hit or miss according a his per
sonal experience embOdics law Of
humanity or mere idloSyncrasy. That
Emerson speaks so often md So royalty
for man is his great distinction That
he speaks so frequently Tor the idiosyn-
cratic, the isolated ana vain II his chief
fault. We have IA right 10 hold him at
his best. and through the richness and
majesty OF the confession we are
brought face to face with the confessor.

The Fnte OF Hannibal.

Hannibars life and fate were su-
premely great and sad. He was pa.
triot who had only the best interests
of his country nt heart In the wars
Of Carthage against Rome he carried
his armies across the strait OF Gi-
braltar, over the Alps and into Italy
To the very gates Of Rome. For more
than score OF years he remained
there, supporting his forces upon the
enemy and proving himself TO be
such literal and lasting scourge
that the Roman mothers would quiet
their children with the sound Of his
dreaded name Finally. when old in
years and ne was driven forth and
defeated. he had made a record In its
way unparalleled throughout the an
nals of ancient warfare.
Yet In his old age he became n
fugitive, wandering from one country
20 the other and finding no rest, owing
10 the ylndictiye prosecutions OF the
Romans, who were then all powerful.
.At last, discovering no spot. on earth
open to him as refuge, deserted by
his former friends, his country en-
slavcd and his once imperial native
city in ruins, he gave way TO despair
and ended his life with poison.
