V? positive drawback rfo V.V J vi:- life to be the next descendant of a prominent states man. He seems so puny by comparison with his lather that what would be qnite respectable abilities in another man, are considered con OwenMeredttK temptible in him. The two Pitts only furnish the exception that pro es the rule. The other day John Albert Bright was taunted by Lord Grinston in the Times with beinc "the very small inheritor of a very great name;" and the caricaturists arc never tired of ridiculing Herbert Gladstone as a pigmy beside his colossal father. VTe see the same thing in-America. President Harrison is called a block to hang his grand father's hat on. If George Washington had left a son his position would not have been enviable. A Difficult Man to Come After. Xow, if there ever was in this world a difficult man to "come after," it was Lord Iiytton, better known as Sir Edward Bui wer Lytton. He was almost everything that a man could be, and whatever he did, he did brilliantly. He was the foremost English man of letters of his time, a novelist of equal rank with Dickens, Thackeray and Disraeli, a highly successful dramatist, a poet far above mediocrity, and at the same tlme he was a powerful statesman, a capable administrator, a splendid orator, a 'keen politician, a country gentleman of com manding influence, a rare scholar, and the unrivaled leader of fashion. He was horn with great adi antages, and he used them so as to raise the faculty of getting on in life to one of the Sue arts. His career was a continuous blaze of success, and his varied reputation never stood higher than when he diedat a ripe old age. His son, with far less advantages than he had, managed to get on in life and push the family fortunes, even more that he did. The most curious thing about the Earl of XiTtton was that he did this without having had any early education worth speaking of. He was at Harrow for a little while when that now famous seminary of learning was about at Its lowest ebb; and he went straight from school into the foreign Office at an age when bis playmates were puzzling their brains over propfiaquca maribus and As in presentL His father had always had a maxim that diplomacy was the best school of statesmanship. He despised political and parliamentary arts, although he ex celled in them himself; and so it came about that the younger Lytton never had any of mat una 01 experience wmen is generally deemed essential for a public man. Served as a Boy at Washington. He was a mere boy when he went as an attache to "Washington, where Mb uncle, Sir Henrv Bnlwer. afterward Lord Dallinjr, was British Minister; and it was among Americans that he gained his first impres sions of the great world of men and man ners. He is still remembered at Washing ton as a shy youth, but a great favorite in the ladies' society, and he on his part de clares that he got an insight into human nature there which was worth more than years of official routine. His next move, however, was what really influenced his career. He was sent to Florence, and there he devoted himself to the study of languages and European liter ature in such a thorough-going way that he might fairly be said to have been a distin guished literateur in any country he might happen to go to. Englishmen, as a rule, learn foreign languages with diffi culty and speak them very badly; and it is a well-deserved reproach' against British diplomatists that they content themselves with Trench and despise the native lan guages of the people with whose afiairs they nevertneiess proles to be laminar. It wai quite the contrary with Lytton. Some idea of the variety of his experiences may be gathered from the fact that he served as at tache, secretary,, charge d'aflairs or ambas sador at Washington, Florence, The Hague, St. Petersburg, Constantinople, Vienna, Belcntde, Copenhagen, Athens, Lisbon, Madrid, Borne and Paris. In each country he learned the language well enough not only to speak it fluently, but to study its literature and even to write books in it himself. His first striking success in diplomacy was in Servia, a country of which very little was known at that time, and where the political parties consisted practically of two rival bands of brigands, only combining In conspiracies against the Turkish rule. His Reputation in Literature. Long before this, Lord Lytton had made his reputation as a poet, novelist and biog rapher; and he had made it in a peculiar and thoroughly characteristic wayf Prom boyhood he had had a burning ambition for literary fame, but he was determined in the firet place not to come into rivalry, as it were, with his father, of whom he was in tensely proud, and secondly not to owe any thing to his advantages of rank and parent age. He resolved to succeed on his merits or not at all For this reason he published all his early works under an assumed name, and it was many years before Owen Mere dith, the admired poet and author of many charming works in English, French, Italian, Polish, Turkish, Bomaic, Danish, was pub licly known to be identical with the rising young diplomatist It was not until his father's death, indeed, that he came out openly as a man of letters, and it was then that he got into a painful affair which brought him a good deal.of dis credit on both father and son. One of his dearest aspirations was to produce a really worthy biography of his father, and the wholeliterary world looked forward to his achievement with an interest eqnal to his own. Tnere was a ditnculty, nowever, ot which the world at that time knew little or nothing. It was no secret that the first Lord Lytton did not get on well with his wife: but the haughty pride of the family had always kept the skeleton shut up in the cupboard. Airine the Family Skeleton. As soon as the first volume of the biog raphy appeared, however, it was noticed that the author scarcely mentioned his mother at all, while in some passages there were expressions of sympathy with his father on account of certain domestic un happiness, which seemed to reflect very in w m juriously upon her. The publio would probably have paid little attention to this, but the relatives of Lady Bui wer took it up fiercely. Thev not only accused Lord Lytton of basely defaming his own mother", but they broueht charges of a terrible character gainst his father, and went the length of publishing a number of letters which, if they were genuine, certainly showed tnat famous man in the light of a monster of cruelty and passion. Ther threatened Lord Iiytton that if he did not do what they con sidered justice to his mother of course, at the expense of his father they would pub lish other papers in their possession, de scribing episodes in real life not equaled in the most sensational of Bulwer's novels or dramas, and make a family expose such as had never occurred since the Byron scandals. Lord Lytton w ould not be coerced and the publication of the family papers was actually announced for a certain date, when he ap plied to the courts for protection. The question to be decided was a very ennous one, but the judges had little hesitation in granting an injunction forbidding the publication of documents which would in flict terrible injury and pain on Lord Lyt ton and bis wite and children, and could not by any possibility do anybody any good. The sensation-mongers were disappointed of a rare treat; and the reputation of the great novelist was spared. But the scheme of the biography was frustrated, and Lord Lytton himself did not come out of the af fair altogether satisfactorily. The Public Estimate of Him. Until tnen he was scarcely known per sonally to the British public at all. He had always lived abroad, and his writings having appeared under another name, there seemed to be a good deal of mystery about him. But in that ugly business he came out clearlr. the public thoutht, as a proud, .hard-hearted man, wrapped up in aristo cratic selfishness and quite void of those tender sympathies which go for so much in the formation of a fine character. In fact, it was said of him at the time that he showed himself the son of his father such a father as was exhibited in the letters which were published. The publio estimate of a man is seldom altogether wrong; and many people who know Lord Lytton will say the opinion then formed of him was not unjust He was one of those men whose particular friends like them intenselr, w hile others, though they cannot help admiring them, have a feeling of positive repulsion from them. He with drew irom the publio notice, nevertheless, with a sort of lofty dignity, declining to answer his critics or to enter into any dis cussion of his family afiairs; and returned to his diplomatic duties, where his position was well assured. He was still Ambassador at Lisbon when Lord Beaconsfield resolved upon one of those surprises which he was so fond of bursting on his supporters and opponents ante. His .Master Stroke in India. He suddenly made Lord Lytton Viceroy of India, a post of great splendor and re sponsibility, for which he had had no pre vious training whatsoever. The salary alone is $100,000 a year, four times that of an am bassador, and the total emoluments, priv ileges, patronage and power make the po sition far more magnificent than that of a lesser European sovereign. Yet Lord Lyt ton was required to fill it at the age of 45, having never been in India or had any thing to do with administration before. Lord Beaconsfield, as usual, knew very well what he was about He did not at that juncture want an administrator for viceroy. He wanted a man of imagina tion, a poet, above all a diplomatist who could understand the inner workings of things and extend his view beyond imme diate causes to remote effects. No sooner was the ex-ambassadcr fairly seated on' the vice-regal throne than he issued the famous proclamation by which Queen Vic toria assumed the title and authority of Empress of India. On the plains of Delhi, in sight .of the ancient capital of the mocrul rulers of Hindostan, he held that gorgeous durbar, at which all the princes of India assembled to hear the great news from the Viceroy himself, and to tender their allegiance in person to the Empress' representative. It was one of the most magnificent spectacles ever witnessed, even in India, the land of pageants, and its political wisdom has been amply justified by after events. For the first time all the ruling powers and military forces of India were brought under one acknowledged head, and a federal empire was established which the greatest of Oriental potentates felt proud to belong to. Decoration ot the Indian Empire. The thing was done so suddenly and so thoroughly that Bnssian jealously had no time to develop itself through the channels of intrigue. Lord Lytton was at once ele vated to the degree of an earl, with the title of Viscount Knebworth to be borne by his ions in memory of the grand old manor of Hertfordshire, which has been the home of the family for nearly 500 years. He was raised to the highest rank in the orders of the Bath and the Star of India, and was one the first to receive the new decoration of the Indian Empire. It would have been well for him if he had left India as soon as he had completed this dnty. Instead of that he held the office of Viceroy for three years longer, and a terri ble time he had of it Whether he was right or wrong in his ideas of Indian admin istration will always be a matter of opinion; but it is certain that no Viceroy made him self more obnoxious to the British officials or to European society in India generally. Europeans in India have the reputation of being very lax in their notions of morality, but the state of afiairs at the Viceregal court in Lord Lytton's time scandalized even those who had lost the power of blushing by long disuse. Bemonstrances were in vain. The Viceroy seemed to think himself a sort of caliph or Oriental Csesar, who was quite above conventional rules in such matters, and the cvnical indifference which he displayed to the feelings of those who cherished the sanctities of family life not less in India than in England, was bit terly felt His Personal Characteristics. Vet he himself was accompanied by his wife, a beautiful and virtuous woman, of the great family of Villiers, who shared with him the grief of losing their eldest son and one or two other children from the effects of the Indian climate. It was a happy day for them, as well as for India, when they left the country on the defeat of Lord Bea confield's ministry, in 1830. Lord Lytton was not a man who could be kept in the background. He was immediately ap pointed Ambassador to the French Repub lic, a post which he held up to the time of his death with signal success. He was CO years of age, but in the prime of life and of abilities; and there was no saying what greatness might have been in store for him. He was a most peculiar looking man, not unlike the portraits of his father that may be seen in some editions of "Pelham" or other early novels of his, but different in having a head of hair so curly that it almost suggested a negro's wool, except fiat it was fair. He had none of that lastidiousness about his apparance -which his father car ried to the extreme of dandyism to the very end of his lite. On the contrary, he rather inclined to the free and easy, baggy style of the young Englishmen of tne pres ent day. He was, in tact, at heart a thor ough Bohemian, cultivated mentally to the highest pitch, and restrained externally by pride of family and aristocratic traditions. but nil the same a true Bohemian with no more real respect for the society in which he lived and shone than the wander ing Gipsies have, with whom he had many an adventure in his young days on the Danube.

Tamada San said: "Come, and see the 'No' Those soncs and dances of our old Japan; They make the ancient music faithfully This evening at my Lord the Governor's; Tou shall be honorably pleased.

Dropping a high note in, now and again. Then, with her fan before her face, or waved in areamy curves, sue sang a verse or iove We and the fisher-bov, still on our knees. She And Love Great Love! Oh less than the splendor spread From Fuji's head To the sea, and the grass, and the grove, Enow ye the deep things ot this!

Love's sun shine ends So Love's warm golden wing Shields not from shuddering The souls it covers, chilled with dread to part. Ah, could I tell, Whosee it near and well, The far truth freely to each beating heart, Not on vour tearful planet once again Should Love be pain. Nor from your blinded eyes should salt tears start. But that whioh I would toich Hath in your human spceoh No words to name such comfort rich and great Therefore,dream on asleep, And dreaming weep! And wait a little yet a little wait! So, or of such wise, in soft Japanese, The ancient uta flowed; O Tsuru's silks Fluttering to every line, obi and sleeve; Her brown arms closing, opening, to its strains. While crystal tears stood in her eyes at times Singing of sorrowful love. Till, with a laugh, She stayed, and glided to her Planet Dance;' Joyously circling, singing, beating time. Shi Steps of my silvery StaT Dancing alone, afar. bo still, so stow No mortal may know How stately her footsteps are; Nor what fair musio is guideof herfeet, Solemn and high and sweet;, , All in a tune To the Sun and the Moon, And the drums that the glad worlds beat As long a path on your little orb goes From the first of her flowers, to the last of her snows, My white Home sweeps in a night; Knowing no haste, knowing no rest For delight In the life of her silver Light, And Joy or the wide purple waste. Where the Angles pass. Like 11 ah through the sea's green glass, But you cannot see that sight!" And while we did not speak, for wlstful- ness. Watching the woven paces, wondering To note how foot and tongue kept faultless time To dreamy tinkling of the Samisens, Across her breast that golden-feathered gown Swiftly she drew; spread her smooth arms like wings, 4 And passed! O Ynki San and we alone! The "No" Dance ended! "Thanks, dear Tsuru San! Yet half we wish O Yuki had not given." Edwgt Arsold. THE SECOND AVENUE PASSENUER KY. CO. Placing Westlnghouse Motors on All Their- Cars. The recent burning f the car barns of the second Avenue irassenger Railway Company, which resulted in the total de struction of 6 cars, demonstrated an inter esting fact in connection with the electrical apparatus. In making an investigation of- the wreck, in order to discover whether there mizht be anything left to be again used, the railway company found that of the various electrical equipments which were operated on the'ears ot its line the mo tors of the Westinghouse Electric and Man ufacturing Company were the only ones that could be utilized again, they being in a condition somewhat similar to that of a good safe which has passed through a fire, while the motors of tne other makes were only valuable to be thrown into the scrap heap. This is a significant fact on the side of the claim of the WeBtingheuse Company that their motors are made ot better material and that their construction i&more substan tial, and that they are thereiorn better adapted to the severe service to which they are subjected in street railway practice than is any other make of motor. This care to provide for the extraordinary strains to which street railway aDDaratus is Bnhiected will no doubt be looked upon by the street railway companies as a proof of the superior excellence of the Westinghouse manufac ture. It would appear that the Second Avenue Company has accepted this fact fully, inso much as they have already purchased from the Westinghouse Company complete equip ments to replace all of those that were de stroyed by the fire.
