ESTIMATES OF FAME.

The practical completion of this years cleo
tons to the Hall of Fame confirms our com
ment that all the names chosen are worthy.
The names of John Quincy Adams, Madison,
William Tecumseh Sherman, Lowell and Whit
tier are impershably written in American his
tory and in the hearts of the American people
The history of American womanhood places the
names of Mary Lyon, Emma Willard and Maria
Mitchell in the first rank. As for distinguished
Americans of foreign birth, if there have been
three more sure of fame than Alexander Hamil-
ton. John Paul Jones and Louis Agassiz, their
names are unknown to us. Doubtless there are
other names we'll worthy TO be inscribed there;
perhaps some more eminent than some that
have been chosen. There are those who prefer
the author of "Annabel Lee" to the author of
"Hiawatha" But TO say, as some have done,
that any of the names now in the Hall of Fame
have been dragged out of Obscurity" is simply
rank nonsense We may regret that the whole
twenty-six vacancies in the hall were not filled,
but we must affirm that these eleven have been
we'll filled.
comparison of the votes cast this year with
those of FIVE years ago indicates some sugges-
tive changes in the esteem i'll which distin-
guished men are held. Some OF the foremost
of those voted on this year were not candidates
five years ago, not having then been dead ten
years Such were Lowell Whittier, Sherman,
thors and editors who were voted on in 1900 it
Is to be noted that Bryant declined in the FIVE
years from 40 to 46, and Greeley from 40 to 80,
while Motley rose from Al to As, Cooper from
80 to 43 and Poe from 80 to 49, The two states
men this year chosen rose Adams from IS to
IS and Madison from 40 to Sc Among states
men not vet chosen Calhoun fell from 40 TO As,
Jackson from 4S to Al and Samuel Adams from
80 to 26. while Sumner rose from % to 2S Patrick
Henry from 80 to 40 John Jay from % TO 20 and
Monroe from 10 TO %, Seward remained con
slant at So, and Daniel Boone at 35 The painter
CopIev fell from 80 to Is. No women were elected
five wears ago but among those voted on then
and now Mary Lyon rose from 20 TO 5s. Emma
Willard from to 80, Maria Mitchell from TO
Al, Lucretia Mott from II to 80, Louisa Alcott
from none to 81, Helen Hunt Jackson from to
a. Dorothea Lynde Dix from II TO 80, Martha
Washington from IA to 81 and Charlotte Cush-
man from Is to &c.
These figures may In some cases be changed
