A a American Sailor ltoy at a Portuguese Bull Fight, and Guy Heavystono Famous Exploit. Ramvieirs Republic. A wildly beautiful story lias bceu adorn ing the daily and weekly papers from Maine to Georgia, called " How Joe Bently Won a Bouquet from the Queen of Portugal." Joe is an American sailor boy who has been raised on a cattle farm. His first voyage lands him at Lisbon, where he proceeds to educate himself in tho customs and manne: of the country by attending a bull light. The laws of Portugal require the bull's horns to be padded, but at a critical moment our American sailor boy discovers that the padding had slipped from one of the sav age horns. It takes but a moment for the bold sailor boy to leap the paling, amid warning shouts of iAmericau and English onlookers ; to seize the mad bull by its naked born and tangled mane the animal, taken by surprise, as well he may be, can think of nothing to do but to whirl round and round until be is so dizzy that he falls upon liis side, when a score of men hold him down. His conqueror is "not allowed to leave the ring until he has been led to tho royal box where tho queen with her own hand passed him a boquet. She also extended to him an in vitation to come to tho palace, where she herself would receive the brave American boy." It is a noble story, worthy of Mar ryatt'B or Lever's best days. Let us hope there is a basis of truth in it, en couraging us to feel that we may take pride in our seamen if we can't in our ships. But tho narrative does forcibly re mind mo of an incident in "Guy Heavy stone," Bret Harte's variation on Guy Livingstone : "His chestnut mare refused a ten-foot wall. She reared aud fell back ward Guy started to his feot. The old pitiless lire shone in his eyes ; the old stern look settled round his mouth. Seizing tho mare by the tail and mano ho threw her over the wall. She lauded twenty feet on tho other sido, erect and ticmbling. Lightly leaping tho same ob stacle himself, ho remounted her. She did not refuse tho wall next time." TUN V.'UJIS OP AMERICAN NOVELISTS. Their Lack or a Field for Their T.tiouts Edinburgh Review. Moreover, and so far as our immediate subject is concerned, wo suspect that American novelists would fctill be at a grave disadvantage, even were Englishmen effectually protected by an international copyright. We find, as we should ex peer, iu tho books which havo come under our notice, that tho authors who lay their scenes at home are sadly at a loss for nov elty in their subjects and are fettered by the monotony of their types. Society is cast in certain stereotyped moulds, aud spiiugs which sot its machinery in motion are patent to the most superficial observ er. Cooper's Indiau is extinct, or hr.s been relegated to tho " reserves :" or he is a drunken vagabond loafing about tho rail way depots and ready to carry a valii-c for a few cents. The sensationalism of the wild West, with its roughs', revolvers shootinir sheriffs, and lynch law, is noon exhausted. It is iwflE.cvery day that a po litical and philanthropioal reaction against a lucrative national "institution" ivcs an opportunity to the author of an ' Uncle Tom's Cabin." The stories of quiet rural life among tho snug homesteads and picturesque- woodlands of tho Eastern states are studies of scenery and manners rather than of characters aud motives ; and, hi short tho novelist must fall back upon the worlds of fashion or of business. There is small scope for tho' play of imagination in ringing tho chatges on flirtations, whero nothing is changed but the cos tumers, whether tbey are carried on at New York, Newport or Saratoga ; there is no place for subtle mental analysis in tbo scramblo and glare of tho showy en tertainments, where the sensations and some grand coup iu tho matrimonial mar ket by a penniless fortuno hunter or a beauty on her promotion ; or the collapse of the sham capitalist who figured yester day as a Croosus. Tho novelist in search of a subject teems to have an alternative, to bo sure, aud that is the delineation of lifo in Boston or its environs. But lifo in Boston can only be made reasonably attractive by au artist like Mr. James, who is more than a scene painter ; or by one of Mr. James more capable disciples. Asa rale, tho cultured Bostonian is introduced charily, and with an invariable propriety of mind aud de meanor ; and while bo serves as a foil to the members of the giddy throng about him, ho is mado to figure in a ludicrous light. Boston has its recognized place iu the cosmogony of tho union as the show capital of culture. As it is liter ally shadowed out in American fiction, it represents all that is " high toned," re Bpectablo and dull. Tho men havo been educated at Harvard, though they have sometimes neglected their advantages. But if they subsequently sow their wild oats, they sow them in secret aud abroad, and have tho grace to be ashamed of themselves. If they meau to settle down among their own people, they are bound to reform early ; and if wise, they will atone for their indiscretions by a double assumption of propriety. The atmosphere of society is scientific and aesthetic, and its leaders, although bound to bo moder ately well off, have, for the most part, mado their mark by their brains. Hitherto, at least, there has been always a certain number of celebrcties of European reputa tion, who have attracted the visits of ad miring foreign travelers, and of whom their fellow citizens are at least as proud as the patriotic memories of Buuker's Hill. The ladies espouse talent when they can ; aud there is a considerable residum of strong minded maiden bluo stockings and spinster advocates ef women's rights. While those who have been linked by their fate to mere moneyed respectability are content to lead humdrum existences, en livened by mildly intellectual festivities, and become irreproachable as wives, mothers and housekeepers. Such are the impressions of Boston as we have gathered them from a perusal of American fiction passim, and it must be owned that any work of fiction founded on them must be wanting as much in relief as in tho excite ment that is derived from the analysis of our vices and foibles. A MODEL CONGRESSMAN. Houk, Republican Representative from Tennessee, Makes a Funny Speech. Representative Houk, who has served two terms in Congress and made himself notorious by his drunken antics and Stal wart speeches, is a candidate for a third term. Rule is contending with him for the Republican nomination. The other day Houk made a speech at Knoxvillo. The following is a specimen of his style : Rule accuses me of drunkenness ( "Hur rah for Houk " ), but I can prove by him that I have been sober for two weeks. Applause. As this is to be a temperanco campaign, Mr. Role shall have enough of it. Applause. lean say that if I had it in my power I would destroy the art of making alcohol, It is a bad thing. It gets away with a fellow some times. Applause. I know it by experience ("Hurrah for Houk "). and so does Rule. (" Hurrah for Rule "). I acknowledge that I have some times taken a little too much when tired aud weary. ("Hurrah for Houk.") But Rule drinks more whisky than I do. (" Hurrah for Rule") He is an everyday, constant dram drinker. Applause. He guzzles it all the time. Applause. I only occasionally get too much. "Hur rah for Houk." "I havo heard it some times lasts a month," said a voice in the crowd. J That depends upon the kind of whisky, my lnend. Great applause. 1 never drank until my health was destroyed in the war. Applause. Twelve years ago I resolved never to enter a bar-room and I have never violated that pledge. A prolonged whistle from some one in the crowd. But Rule walks right up to the bar and drinks his whisky and guzzles his beer right over the counter like a common drunkard. Applause. Rule says that I was drunk in Nashville during the senatorial contest. "Hurrah for Houk." It is a lie, but Rule was drunk himself. Applause. I say I saw him drunk. "Hurrah for Rule." I saw him leaning helplessly up against a wall with a mutilated cigar stump in his mouth. Applause. And he was so drunk that he put the lighted end of tho cigar in his mouth aud burnt his tongue prolouged applause and tho scar is thero yet. Ap plause. If the scar is not on his tongue I will agree to abandon tho race for Con gress. " Hurrah for Houk." PROCTOlt KNOTT'S STORY. flow a Number of Kenmcklans Capturod A. T Stewart in New York. Louisville courier-Journal. Hon. J. Proctor Knott is a delightful ra conteur. He has a world of good stories aud ho spins them iu a way that betters them. Seated among a party of friends he related this one, which isn't among the worst : A number of yoais ago a party of Ken tuckians swooped down on New York city " a-sccin' of tho sights." Several of them were from the interior of the state and had novcr been as far east before, while tho leader, a shrewd city citizen, glib of tongue, piloted the party through ways that were queer and. tricks that were equally so. They happened upon Mr. Knott at one of the hotels and claimed him for their own. Ho was tho very man they were Iookiug for. Every sight of the great city had been seen excopt A. T. Stewart, tho morchant prince. " Wouldn't ho introduce tbem V The hero of Va luth protested that Stewart knew nothing and cared less for a country congressman like himself and ho had to decline. He finally convinced the delegation that he couldn't accompany thom, and they slowly filed out of his room, after express ing a determination to seek out and seo tho elephant ou their own hook. Later on in tho evening Mr. Knott sat in a parquctte seat in Niblo's Garden, in tently watching the show. While gazing around at the strange faces that lined the scats and peered from tho galleries he was startled by a bow from tho most clogant box in tho tier. Another head, dimly lined against tho rich interior, courtesied, and his embarrassment and curiosity be came painful in its intensity. A third person nodded aud smiled, aud theu ouly did ho recognize his Kentucky friends lolling around in tho luxurious quarters perfectly at case. At the head of the delegation was A. T. Stewart himself, patronizing and attentive. How did you manage it?" asked tho congressman of the leader next day. "Easy enough. We deliberately walk ed to his private office after leaving you and introduced ourselves. Wo went on to say that wo were from Kentucky, aud tal arrived iu New York on an extensive pleas mo trip, during which we expected to seo a majority of the great men America had procured. We elaborated with glowing pbraso and rouuded period, and all that, how wc had seen Grant and all the other big dogs at Washington, but it was the unanimous verdict of tbo party that we shouldn't return homo until wo had seen the Napoleou of commerce, A. T. Stew art. The old gentleman was carried away with tho liberal supply of taffy, and when we left it was only ou a condition that wo should le turn later iu the afternoon. We did so, and found an elegant supper spread iu the private office, after eating which we were whirled away in carriages to Niblo's Garden, and led into tho pri vate box where you saw us." m m PJKKUJS'S FIRST CASK. now tho I.To President Cleared a Guilty Alan. The first step made by President Frank lin Pierce toward distinction is thus re lated : One man had stabbed another in affray, the knife entering the left sido be low the eleventh rib, and, in consequence, the injured man had died. The murderer was to be tried and some tyro could avail himself of tho opportunity to defend the doomed man. Tho task fell to young Pierce, just then entering tho profession of law. The case was so clear that most lawyers of even moro cxporienco would have been content with a moving appeal to tho jury. Not so tho embryo executive, who set about in good earnest, despite all evi dence, to prove the man innocent. First, he adroitly managed to have the trial postponed three months. He then wcut to the offico of a physician and asked him if ho would take a student, intimating his desiro to pursue a course of physi ology. The practitioner started at the proposition, but responded in the affirma tive, and Pierce began the study, aud be persevered for tho intervening three months, taking care to make himself thoroughly conversant with -the human frame, aud charging his memory with all the technicalities, so that he had every term at his tongue's end. The tiial com menced in usual form ; three surgeons were sworn, who testified that the man thus wounded must have died of the wounds inflicted. At last Pierce was allowed to cross examine tho surgeons. Ho demanded what tissues and membranes the knife must have passed. Tho surgeons, who had not supposed it incumbent upon them to "study up," could not explain ; they were, of course, positive that the victim was murdered and that the prisoner ought to be punished, but under the close ques tioning of Pierce they halted and blun dered. This prepared the way for the do fenso to make an effective plea. He cau tioned the jury against being swayed by men so ignorant that they could not tell the names of certain tissues, and thence cunningly argued that the victim did not die of the wound, and that the prisoner was not, therefoio, guilty, and to tho amazement of all, the guilty man was ac quitted. m IttJiculous and Absurd. New York Herald. Mr. Camcran, sr., comes forward in the hope of saving the day, which is now as good as lost. His appeal is hollow, falso and misleading. He raises the question of protection as against free trade and seeks to win over to the panic-stricken ranks of his son and his shattered " ma chine" tho great manufacturers by pro claiming that the "American system" is in danger unless they aro given a renewed lease of power. This is ridiculous and absurd. In Pennsylvania this year it is not a question of protection or of free trade. It is a question of machines and of bosses. It is not the American mechanic or the American manufacturer who is in danger but the Amerioan boss. The pop ular watchword this year is that tho ma chine city, state or national must go to the wall.
