adopt the plan I propose. However,
your refusal to do so convinces me
that you have told me the truth and
have turned to our side. If you can
work the plan you suggest it may
serve the same purpose"
At nine o'clock that night George
Patton rode up to the ferryman at
Communipaw and as courier from
the general commanding at Elizabeth,
demanded to be taken at once across
to General Howe at New York. He
found the general just about to go to
bed. Patton handed him the dispatch.
General Howe read it and called an
aide-de-camp. Couriers were sent fly
Ing down the Jersey coast.
Patton, stating that he had orders
to return at once to Elizabeth, re-
crossed the ferry. and at daylight the
next morning rode up to the Ameri-
can pickets at Morristown. He was
recognized and permitted to go to
headquarters. He found General
washington up anu giving HIS dlue,
Capt. Alexander Hamilton, memoran-

Of Former Days.

English as commonly written today
certainly seems to have lost the purity
and strength that 1t had century ago,
observes the Spokane Spokesman Re
view. Then such masters of the Ian.
guage as Cobbe, Coleridge, DeQuincey
or Hazlitt were journalists as we'll as
poets or essayists, and their leading
articles lost nothing of effect on the
public from being literature.
The arrival Of the age of steam, elcc-
tricity and cheap postage was followed
by change, not for the better, in the
popular style of speaking and writing.
"Say what you have to say as briefly
and quickly rs possible. and don't
bother about fneness of expression"
became the general rule and practice.
The new millions of readers demanded
that their reading be expressed in the
language of everyday speech. The
obligation of compressng conclusions
about important matters into 1,OOd
words, or fewer, is death, In the end,
to style. The literary form favored is
in touch with the turned-up-trousers

is free and easy and crammed with
linguistic atrocities. Plural subjects

This Day Of Enlightenment.
In the generous spirit of our time,
and the broad catholicity of this hour,
we cultivate no resentment, and har-
bor no revenges. We remember Great
Britain not as the land of George the
Third and Lord North. but as the coun-
try of Shakespeare and Milton, Of
Chatham and Burke, of Gladstone and
John Bright. With the same language
and lineage, we no longer settle our
difficulties by the bloody issue of war,
but by peaceful arbitration, and are
rivals only in the race for n better CIV
ilization and its beneficent results. We
of the North and our Southern breth-
rem are united in Strengthening. en-
larging and perpetuating the republic.
We hopefully await the time when the
leaven of liberty from America shall
have regenerated the political condi-
tion Of every race.-Chauncey II. De
