The Spring session of Franklin and Mar shall college opened at 10 a. in. te-day, most et the students being back from their holiday vacation and in their accus tomed places. Prof. Win. 31. Nevin, who fills the Alumni chair of English literature in such an accomplished manner, and is withal very popular among two genera tions of college students was received with applause, when he took the stand and de livered the opening address en " The Cel tic Element in English Poetry." After the address the usual class announcements wcie made and the Spring term schedule of study begins te take effect te-morrow. Following is an outline of Prof. Ncvin'g address : It is a wonder that 31. Taine, who makes such account of race as an element of national moral character, has made no mention of the influence el the Celtic race en English life and manners. Although the meeting of the Briten and Celt was one of deadly hestilty, some of the Celts, upon the retreat of the main body into Wales, lcmaiucd and commingled with the conquerors. The Cymbry family of the Celts were the ancient Uritens of Eng land and Wales ; the Gaels were the origi nal Irish and Highlanders. The Teutonic Angle Saxons were better fighters than the Celts. The Saxons were brave, albeit cruel, loyal and honorable. The Celts were mere imaginative and visionary, with a mere observant oye for the beautiful in nature, a mere tender sympathy for its loveliness, a tasteful ear for music and a practiced hand te awaken melody from the harp. Of the three orders of Druids, the prophet and priest passed away before Christianity, but the bard survived. The Celtic bard was, tee, a seer,and his susccp tibilty of recovering past impressions en abled him te foreshadow the foreboding viriens of future events, In the Hebrides or Western Isles the aged Celt in his soli tude, was net infrequently endowed with "second sight" a quality graphically alluded te in Campbell's "Lochiel's Warning," just before Culloden's fatal day. During the Angle Saxen period, except in the Paraphrase of Canlmen, there is no observable infusion of the Celtic spint. The Angle Saxen poets lacked vivacity of genius. They had their race characteris tics and were serious and sober-minded, earnest and energetic. The lazy, cor rupted monk indulged iu deep cups, but never took auy share in vain songs and never forget his sanctimoniousness. But even these bibacieus monks were few and there were godly men and abstemious poets, "who sang the deeds of heroes. victorious edcs,dcath songs, epic poems, or sitting in cloisters far from the madding crowd, converted Hely Writ into Saxen Chimes." The spiiit of Celtic romance was im ported into Brittany, France, thence te Xoi mandy, whence it was brought back across the channel after the Nerman con quest. It passed from Welch into Latin, thence into French, and only into English after the three hundred years, during which Latin and French were the polite and literary languages in England. The bold imagination of the Celt revolts against the despotism of facts and glories iu the freedom of romance. "The "History if Rririsli Tv intra " hv AmfFrv nf 1tn- mouth, a Welsh priest,' preduced iu the reign et btepnen, was a romance of history first exemplifying the romantic spirit in English literature. The "kings," their wonderful deeds and succession, were ingenious inventions tak ing en the form of authentic chronicle, based en a book alleged te have been found in Brittany. He first mentions King Ar.hur as a here of national romance. It was a popular work, despite the fact that the veracious regular chronicler of the English race was greatly scandalized by the perversion of truthful history. The church, te turn te account the popular taste for the romantic, invented the poem of the Sacred Dish the " San Grael," which held the bleed of the cress iuvisible te all eyes but these of the pure iu heart. Walter Map, a Welch arch deacon, in his "Lancelet of the Lake," settled the variance of the two races and harmonized tiie sacred and profane legends by devel ing the Arthur legend, and at the same tune idealizing that bright animal life which it had been the only object of pre ceding stories te express. The Celtic poetry, however, is never allegorical or didatic, only satirical. Map se severely satirized the corruptions of the church, under Henry IL,that his Anacreentic songs arc taken by many te be his own senti ments. Fer a time English literature was se pervaded with the French and Italian taste and sentiment that there was no place for the Celtic element. The genial, geed humored pleasantry of Chaucer and ethers, all that was net native, came from Florence, Normandy or Aquitaine and up te the refinement and polish of the Eliza bethan era, these influences were due te the revival of classical learning. The Welch continued, however, te cherish Col Cel tic poetry, eutbursting especially in patri otic song whenever invaded by the Eng lisli, and in sweet, erotic strains, as well as martial rhapsodies. An instinct of the noble, a discovery of the weird charm of nature, a childlike spirit of delicate enjoyment in the love of woman, a playful delight in beauty, are Celtic characteristics. The Scotch people, of the Lowlands, sprung from the Britons and the Angle-Saxons, inherited much of the old Celtic ' temperament and genius, and in Scotch poetry the Celtic elements are the love of wild nature for its own sake, the vivid observation and descrip tion of scenery, the love ' of color, the wittier, rollicking humor. Sir Themas Mallery, of Welch descent, in his history of King Arthur, suggests what is developed in the " Idyls of the King." Spenser, in his epithalmium in the reijrn et Stephen. honor of his Irish bride, caught the Celtic fire ; and Dryden, in his "Ode for St. Ce celia's Day " and " Alexander's Feast," rises high in ecstasy ; though neither they nor even Gray, in " The Bard," reach the native enthusiasm of a genuine Celtic bard. The truly Celtic element is net te be traced in the Elizabethan age, nor in the succeeding coldly classic peried.The mantle of the Druid fell en a few in the later days of the eighteenth century, when the new Renaissance set in and poets adopted the style of the earlier bards or caught new inspiration from the world immediately around them. Then was disclosed anew the faculty of a complete surrender te a vision upberne in melody. Keats and Shelly bad it, but ie an eminent degree 1 Coleridge, whose "Ancient Mariner," "The Leve," first part of " Cristabel," " The Dark Ladie," " Kumbla Kabn " and "Tragedy of Remorse" were all compos ed in 1797 after his tour through Wales. After his attention turned te German met aphysics this divine faculty remained un employed, the Celtic side of his genius succumbing te the Teutonic. Of contemporary bards, deduced imme diately from Old Scotland and Ireland, of native growth and derivation, the clear, sweet voice of Campbell sounds like the distant pibrech, loud and strong through the mountains,or low and plaintive through the vales, but divested of any harsh drone or Jdialect, as in "Lord L lien's Daugh ter," " Hehenliuden." or the "Exile of Erin." Illustration of hew much mere touching, tragic and pathetiche Scotch ballads are than the Englishes afforded in the ballads of Chevy Chase. In the English the death of Douglas is told iu a simple, un impassioned strain; in the Scotch the sad event is foreshadowed te Douglas before, and, iu accordance with the inherited Celtic nature, the repe tition of the supernatural effect at Doug las's fall gives a new charm te the poem. The same superiority may be asserted in general for Scottish songs. When Tem Moere took down the harp from Tara's walls the hallowed old tunes were wedded te his charming social, amatory, national and patriotic strans and his Celtic and humor shone forth resplendent. Samuel Lever's genial geed humor and homely pathos, racy of the soil, are always in full accord with the ebullient wit of the com mon people. The charm of Irish poetry is its skill in expressing lightness of heart. It "throws the whole heart" into the sub ject while touching it with combined ten derness and gaiety. Ne literature shows such combination of playfulness and sweet ness. Lever's "Rory O'Mere " and "Widow Machrce " especially prove this ; and better still Alfred Percival Graves' "Seugs of Killarney." In a higher de gree is it demonstrated by Lever's song founded en the Irish superstition that when a babe is seen te be smiling in its sleep, it is owing te the nursling's being wholly taken up at the time and pleased with the angels who are whispering with it. "The Celtic bard, at his best, is con fined te the lyric and when he ventures lurtner ins virtue lersakes him. lie can sear like the lark, but net sustain the unwearied flight et the eagle. Frem Os sian te Moere his attempts at the epic have failed. Humer is net essential te the poet. Spencer, Milten, Wordsworth and Bryant were without it. Ner the accom plishments of the musician, which Burns and Scott lacked, whose best lyrical pio pie pio ductiens came directly from their hearts ; and beauty, the whole substance and de light of our later agnostic poets, cannot stand alone. The Corinthian column around which ether poetic qualities are the fluting, fillets and leaves of the capital, is the firmly established principle of virtue and moral rectitude,strengtlieiied by assiduous self culture and severe intel lectual training, se that the poet al length becomes a living poem, te be read and ad mired of all men. Thus he communicates te his works that sustaining virtue which is the supporting column in English liter ature and belongs essentially te its Anglo Angle Anglo Saxen or Teutonic side. "Weseeit first in Cocdmen. then perhaps tee nakedly ex posed in Laugland,and again suffused with Gothic grandeur and Italian grace iu Spen ser, and finally culminating under still severer discipline and taste in the romantic, classical and Puritanical Milten, whose ' Paradise Lest ' stands forth apprevedly as the only genuine epic poem in the English language and, en account of the sounder Scriptural morality upon which it is founded, perhaps superior te any in the Italian." The address teemed with timely quota tiens and fragments of pDcms illustrating its main thoughts. It was a very finished and interesting paper and merits publice, ftieQ ia N in t,ie Celle3e Student. A TliicFs Flight. Escaping With Mrs. Prentice's stolen Jew els He Plunges Uwn a Hatcliway and Is Fatally Injured, We have noticed in detail hew 3Ir. Shel Shel eon's house in Brooklyn was robbed of $7,000 worth of jewelry, including his daughter's wedding presents ; and, in brief, hew the thief fell and killed himself in his flight. The Herald gives sonic par ticulars of the finding of his body and booty. About seven o'clock in the morn ing K. J. Watsen and several ether work men, plasterers and carpenters, employed en a four-story brick building, Ne. 40 Remsen street, which is in course of erec tion, entered the basement of the struc ture for the purpose of resuming work. On reaching the parlor fleer they beheld a man covered with bleed lying en the fleer, just beneath the opening in which the stairs are built. The man had fallen from the landing en the third fleer, a height of about thirty feet, head foremost. Se vio lent was the shock that the beard upon which his head struck was broken. By the side of the man lay a sealskin sacquc, a dress and a banjo. He was breathing heav ily and was unconscious. Policemen were called iu and the pockets of the in jured man were searched. The efficcis discovered diamond earrings, of rare value and workmanship, a lace pin, a diamond pendant, a cameo, a diamond pin, two geld watches, a lace pin, lockets, coral sets and fourteen scarf pins, a geld neck lace, rings, pearl and geld studs and a case of razors. The property thus re covered was found te be that which was stolen from Mr. Shelden's house en the previous evening, and composed the wed ding presents of his daughter, 3Irs. Pren tice, for which $2,000 reward was offered. There were also found in the man's pockets a leaded revolver, several cart ridges, a chisel, a pi eco of candle and a box of matches. It is believed that the thief secreted himself iu the house where he was found en Monday afternoon, and that after nightfall, while the family of Mr. Shelden were dining in the base ment of Ne. 44, he made his way te the reef and effected an entrance te Ne. 42, which he robbed. On returning with his booty he removed the scuttle of Ne. -40 and de scended the narrow, dark stairs leading from the reef te the third story landing. In stepping forward it is supposed that his feet struck a beard that, was nailed te the fleer, causing him te fall forward. Iu an instant he was precipitated down the well J hole, there being no banisters en the stairs, and he struck the fleer thirty feet below, en the spot where he was found by the workmen in the morning. The in jured man was taken te the Leng Island college hospital. It was found that his skull was fractured at the base. There was also a bad fracture of the frontal bone ever the left eye. His right arm was broken and he was injured internally. . Upen his left forearm, in indelible ink, was tatoeed the name "J. Garvey." Detectives Felk and Zundt, who visited the hospital, recognized the man as a notorious burglar, known as ' Leng Jehn Garvey," alias " Jehn Whit aker.' ' Several years age he was implicat ed with " Jimmy Weeds" and ether burg lars in a raid en a store at the foetot Canal street, New Yerk. He was arrested in Will iamsburg in December, 187e, and was sent 1 Sing Sing, where be owed the state eight years service under a former sentence. Late in the afternoon Detective King and Ven Geitchen, of the central office, visited the hospital, and also recognized him as Garvey, the burglar. He escaped from Sing Sing several years age, having been sentenced te ten years' imprisonment for the burglary alluded te above. He was arrested en the extension of a house in the Eastern district in his stocking feet, when about te commit another burglary. As he had a long unexpired term te serve he was sent back te prison and was net prosecuted in Brooklyn. He was discharged from Auburn penitentiary last month. m i (Je North, young man, go North, and freeze up with the country. Bat don't forget te take a bottle et Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup along.
