TOURENT lIVIIN.
(LOCH COBVISK, BYRE.)
The torrent fills the air A
With a terrible voice of prayer r>
"God the Lord I;
From the hollow of tby hand,
In the darkness of the land
I was poured; - • '
And in solitude I beat • '
Bound thy dimly shining feet •
On the scary,
While thou standcat looking down
Upon multitude.and town
From afar;
While the black lake broodeth still,
Hark'! the voices of thehill
How they die I
And I answer deep and loud,
To the pattsing thuoder-cloud,
With a cry 1
Lot the seasons of the year
Glide lx low thee with no fear, • -
While still thou leanest hero
On thy sword,—
Yea, stilly night atd day thou dolt gaze on sea
and shore,
On thy lett the rainoow hovers and my troubled
waters roar,
Wildle b. low thee, in tho valleys, men adore and
implore
Goa the Lord !"
Pull clear the torrent saith
To iho heart that hearkeneth:
"God the Lord!
Who shall meet thee in thy might,
Who than
ith stay thee if thou smite
W thy sword ?
In a solitary place
Where the silence of thy face
Dwells like WOW,
Thou abidest night and day,
And the troubled waters play
Down below;
There is stillness in thy skies
And the wonder of thine eyes
None may sound,
On thy face there Is no change,
While thy shadow falleth strange
All around•
Yea, from silent height to height
Goes the murmur of thy might
And the people name thy light
And thy word ;
And stilly evermore thou abidest out of reach,
On thy feet the rainbow flutters, and my waters
boil for speech.
While from valley unto valley mortals preach and
beseech
God the Lord!"
Literary Men Beginning as Reporters.
A w riter speaks of the rise and growth of
Parliamentary reporting as follows:
"What irony there is in history ! If the
ghosts of Cave and Woodfall, of Perry and
his corps of reporters, still linger on the back
benches of the reporters' gallery, as the shade
of Canning is said to linger round the Speak
er's chair, how they must smile at the caprice
by which a handful of semi-literary spies,
taking notes in their hats, and after
wards writing them out by the flickering
light of a bar-parlor, over a pot of porter or a
glass of brandy-and- water, has been devel
oped into one of the most powerful estates of
the realm ! When the history of the English
press is written as it ought to be, not in bits
and scraps of personal biography about
Irish reporters and Scotch editors, but
as a great social and political institution,
people may look—and look in vain—
through the pages of Macaulay tor any more
striking and suggestive illustration of our pro
gress in popular notions of govemment,and, I
may add, in the gentler arts and amenities of
political life than is to be found in the rise
and growth of our newspaper press. To re
port a speech in the House of Commons for
the papers in the days of Speaker Onslow
was a species of treason against the unwritten
law of Parliament. Nearly all the reports
that we have of the speeches of Fox and Pitt
are surreptitious reports. Several of the more
famous of these speeches we know, from the
confessions of the reporters themselves, to be
worse than surreptitious, for they are ficti
tious, the concoctions of the reporters them
selves. 'Verbatim reports of the speeches
made in this House! It is a conspiracy to
make Parliament contemptible in the eyes of
the nation.' That is the light in which
parliamentary reports were looked upon by
our representatives less than a century ago.
They declared the reports of the Gentleman
to be an insult to the House. Wyndham pro
nounced them highly indecorous. The squires
anathematized the reporters. The Speaker
lectured them at the bar. The Sergeant-at-
Arms imprisoned them. Brougham, in the
early part of his career, was called to order
for speaking of the reporters; and,on the very
eve of the establishment of popular power by
the Reform bill of '32, the House of Lords
marked their sense of an insult thrown out
by the Times against one of their order by
turning out a whole troop of gentlemen of the
press. The peers looked upon the press then
pretty much in the light that they still look
upon poachers. To day they dine with them
at Willis's Rooms, under the presidency of a
royal duke, and toast the press as the fourth
estate.
"I know no single profession that in the
course of the past forty or fifty years has,
considering its own numbers, produced a
more distinguished group of men than the
Parliamentary reporters. Poetry, law, litera
ture and science have all replenished their
ranks from the gallery, and 'the names of
most of these men are eloquent of genius.
Take poetry. There are Samuel Taylor
Coleridge and Thomas Noon Talfourd.
These are the only poets that I can call to
mind on the spur of the moment; but they
represent a host in themselves. In the
literature of art and science it is enough to
refer to Mr. S. C. Hall, the editor of the Art
Journal, and Dr. Forbes Winslow.
Richard Lalor Shiel may stand as the repre
sentative of oratory. It is in the law
and the literature of imagination that we find
the most distinguished names of parliamen
tary reporters. At the head of the list stands
plain John Campbell, Lord High Chancell
Baron Alderson and Mr. Justice Talfourd
stand by his side; and I could select more than
one name from the present list of judges in
Westminster Hall, to bracket with these.
There are dozens of men at the bar who be
gan their career in the Reporter's Gallery. In
literature I need only refer to Charles Dick
ens, Shirley Brooks and W. H. Russell. Edi
tors the Gallery has produced by the score;
and several of these have attained the highest
posts in their profession—the chair of the
Tones, buitg Ncws, Morning Post,Murn
ing Adm. I Geer, and, in its day, of the
Illorning Chronicle.
"Of course, with most of these men report
ing was merely the occupation of leisure
hours. They were waiting for briefs, wait
ing for publishers. Reporting was to them
what Mr. Gladstone once called 'a profession
of transitiuu.' It was not the business of
their lives. It is that_ to many still, though
not to the extent it wasformerly. You may
still, perhaps, find in the Gallery Campbells
and Talfourds, puisne judges and chief jus
tices, men of genius who have yet to make
their mark in literature, as Charles Dickens
and Shirley Brooks have done. Many of these
men spend their morning reading up for the
bar,or in the courts of Westminster Hall. Here
and there you may find a contributor to our
magazines. 'London correspondents' are here
by the dozen. And supposing a man has
stamina in him for the work, what 'training is
there equal to a life of three or four sessions
in the Gallery for the higher work of journal
ism, for the courts, and for literature? But
401connsathere's the rub. Only men in the
prime :of health and mental vigor are equal to
t h e task. "Long hours of close and exhaust
in work, Work that often extends more than
through the night, in an enervating at
mosphere. with all your faculties of observa
tion, memory and reflection on the stretch,

"Modern Women" is a tirade against
modern Englishwomen, and parenthetically
against modern women of other nations; we
have already given a specimen of the charges.
We bear these accusations in America as
well, and it behooves us to examine the
foundation of them, that we may discover
whether or no they are true, and, if true,
what the remedy should be. In plain English,
are we going to the devil? Will the Saratoga
Woman of ten years hence be such a woman
as the Saturday Revicw describes in these
terms: “Belladonna flashes from her eyes,
kohl and antimony_deepen the blackness of
her eyebrows, 'bloom of roses' blushes from
her bus?' Is she of this sort now?
If our politicians are every year
becoming more and more corrupt
our theatres every year more and more inde
cent, and our society more and more aban
doned in its luxury and frivolity, we shall
very soon reach:a point at which there will
be little security for life or property,—if that
in some quarters of the country has not been
reached already. The soberest of American
cities has had its winter's excitement fur
nished by the Cancan, the officers of the law
in New "York act or remain inactive accord
ing to the relative length of the plaintiffs and
defendants' purees, while the hot whirl of'
Newport and Saratoga serves as a ready Lethe
for all moral obligations. A rather disheart
ening picture might be drawn in this way of
our probable future; and yet we cannot be
lieve in its truth.
—London Spectatoi''
The question is, What amount of influence
do the forces called social exert upon the gen
eral current of thought and upon the general
moral tone of the country? We cannot say
how it is in England or France (which latter
country, we suspect, has furnished most of
the materiallfor these essays), but in America
this influence is, on the whole, alight. If
"society" here were in the hands of the older
and more prominent men and women, in the
hands of our great bankers, and great orators,
and great merchants, and their wives, the ex
travagance and stupidity of which we hear
so much might fairly be expected to beget
extravagance and stupidity among all orders
and classes, and those who believed a general
reign of corruption and inanity to be approach
ing would probably form a malifity of the
thinking public. If the people w Liu by their
standing attract the attention and mould the
fashion of the masses are sensual in their
tastes and low in their aims, the rest of the
people will, by coming under their influence,
become like them. They say, that, when
the llegyar'o Opera was first performed in
Loudon, Sir Robert Walpole, then minister,
and well known to be bribing to the right and
to the left, was in a stage box. On the singing
of the following air of Lockit's, all eyes were
turned on Sir Robert,and the air was encored:
" When you censure the age,
Be cautious and sage,
Lest the courtiers offended should be;
If you mention vice or bribe,
'lfs so pat to all the tribe
That each cries, That was leveled at mel"
to be like Macaulay, a honk in breeches.

House. neought.:lo knot! the ins and outs
or f trety, to* of discussion—finance,' Indian
lgotternmenfi': 4 Soreign politics, ecclesiastical
and civil lew tend history. He ought to be
quick enough with his pencil; to take, every
word of orators like Gladstone, Disraeli and
Lowe, He ought to have the wit to see the
point of their keenest.and most subtle allu
sions, and to see it in a moment. He
ought not to boggle over a , bit,, of
Latin, .or Greek„ - . a, passage from
Homer, Virgil or Horace. And
to crown all, he ought to be able to write out
his copy as legibly as small, pica, aad as
expeditiously as a telegraph needle. Some
of them occasionally make terrible hash of
the speeches. The Bishop of Ely says they
systematically omit the point of all his argu
ment, and misrepresent
,many of his state
ments. They, used to make I,4lacaulay talk
'frightful • nonsense. They once made him
trace the principle of, our Statute of limita
tions from the legislation of the Mexicans
and Peruvians; and then, perhaps by way of
varying the monotony of his historical
theory, from the `Pandects of the
Benares.' They once made Lord
Derby call Mr. Gladstone the Polyphemus of
the Liberal party. One day this session they
lowered the price of the funds an eighth per
cent. by the misinterpretation of a few words
of Mr. Ward Hunt's upon the Abyssinian es
timates; and a day or, two ago a professor of
Oxford set all his university friends aghast by
the off-hand and compendious assertion,
through the Times, `that natural morality was
superior to the morality of any religion, Pro
testant or Roman Catholic'—a perversion of
the very simple statement in the House of
Commons that natural morality was superior
to the morality of any priest,either Protestant
or Roman Catholic."
! , ‘Nocnnyv iu tsmerica.
[Frew the North A merioan Review.]
"Sir Robert, observing the pointed manner in
which the audience applied the last line to
him,parried the thrust by encoring it with his
single voice, and thus not only blunted the
poetical shaft, but gained a general huzza
from the audience." And there can be no
doubt that Walpole lowered the tone of
London society by the clever audacity which
gained him the huzza.
But if you seek the leaders of society in
America, you do not find them in the states
men, the orators, the presidents of colleges,
but in boys of twenty-two with a good faculty •
for dancing, and girls of twenty just home
from Paris. Or if you look for m tturity,you
may find it in the person of some broken
down stock gambler, known by his. fast
horses and disreputable life. Even these last
are in a small minority; the crowd is young,
and it is the youth of the crowd, and its con
sequently uniulluential character upon which
we wish to dwell. A generation in our so
ciety lasts three or, at the outside, four
years, and it is only at the close of their so
cial career that our young men and women
begin to have any influence in directing the
current of thought or action at all. The
number of persons who, in any large Ameri
can city, are at once prominent members of
"society" and also prominent in public life or
business of any kind, can be counted
on the fingers of one hand. And it is
very easy to see that prominence as a cotil
lion dancer and prominence as a human
being are really incompatible, for it requires
all the energies of one's nature to be promi
nent in either capacity. If any one wishes
to realize the truth of these statements, let
him pause a mJment and reflect upon his
probable sensations on being told that some
eminent public lecturer in the United States
was in the habit of spending his summer
afternoons in driving on the avenue at New
port, and the winter evenings in leading the
German at Delmoniccis. The fact is, that
all young American men and women, who
have any ambition, or desire to serve man
kind, leave "society . ' as soon as they arrive
at years of discretion; and the result is, that
"society" is composed of those who have not
yet reached years of discretion and those who
never will do so—a society not very likely to
mould opinion at large, or in the long run to
damage the cause of morality with those who
remain out of it.
Let us say, that, in making these remarks,
we are not speaking of any society other than
that which is known by this name in our
large cities, which is recognized as such by
reporters of newspaperei at Long Branch or
Saratoga,—the only " society," properly
speaking, in America. There is, indeed, a
larger meaning in the word, which permits
it sometimes to include any association of
men and women for purposes of pleasure or
instruction,—a meaning which would hardly
exclude lectures or " readings," and would
certainly comprehend "talking parties."
But this 18 not " society." It cannot be too

Thomas S. Itonenn and a.:7Washlng.
The Washington , correspondent of the Oa-
Chmati Commerical Jells this, story of
Thomas H. Benton:
Shillington is an Irish bookseller here, of
creditr and renown. Benton was • a neighbor
and friend of his, and made - Shillington cut
out of books and newspapers every conceiv
able article upon the Pacific Railway and
bring to him. He also employed Shillington
to select from the' Ccmgreeeional Globes,
which were brought to his house in 0 street,
by the cartload, the matter that be :wished
in publishing his"Abridgement of the Debates
of Congress."
"It was a strange and remarkable study,"
said Shillington, "to see that old man lying
there flat on his back, unable to rise,
his spectacles'poised on the tip of his nose,
looking through the long debates, whose huge
folios he held on his breast. He knew that
he bad but a week or two to live, and he was
running a race with death to get the book fin
ished; for he believed that it was the vital
thing to keep the country together. He Used
to• send me word four or five times a day to
come up there, and the people said that I was
his slave. If I did not come promptly on
time, the old gentleman seemed to feel that I
was in some way derelict in my duty to the
country. One day, when the shop was• full
of people, word came down, 'Mr. Benton
wants you to come at two o'clock to help him
on an important matter.' As soon asl could
possibly leave I went around to his dwelling
and found him asleep, breathing very hard,
with a large volume' of the Globe on hia
breast. I lifted the book off and set it on a
table a little out of reach. Then, seeing
that he did not yet awaken, I hastened back
to my work. In about two hours I re
turned, and the old man looked very severely
at me.
" I sent for you sir, two hours ago. I
have but a month at most to live, sir; it is
important for the country that this book shall
be finished before I die. You did not come
sir.'
" Yes, Mr. Benton, I did. And I found
you asleep.'
"'I have not slept for fifty hours, sir! It
was impossible that I could sleep, sir, with
so much on my mind.'
" Benton never trusted a man that told
him a lie, so I found it necessary to clear my
self.
" 'Mr. Benton' said I, yon were asleep
with a volume of the Globe on your breast
when I entered the room, and I found you
breathing hard, so I put the book on the
table yonder.'
" The old man's eyes lighted up.
" 'Well now, sir,' he said, had that
book on my breast or on the bed somewhere,
and I wondered how it got off there so far.
Perhaps I did doze a little unconsciously.
But come, sir, we must get to work. I have
but a little time to do a great deal of work
in.'
"Dr. Hall and his colleague, to prolong
the life of Benton, opened the old man's
abdomen and, taking out his bowels while he
was still conscious, proceeded to cleanse
them. At one place they found some grape
skins; then they found bits of wood, which
he used to chew abstractedly while writing
or reading.
"'Look on, gentlemen,' said the old man,
feebly; 'I dare say you will find Congres
sional Globes next.'
"When Benton was about to die, so vital
did be think his advice was to the country,
he sent for Buchanan, had the door closed,
and solemnly devoted his last hours to im
pressing upon the President his opinions of
the mode in which the country should he
administered. If ever there was a man,"
concluded Shillingtop, "who thought that in
his mind and reason lay the true destiny of
the Union, it was Tom Benton. Ills family,
his fame, his future were all subordinate to
the love of country."
A Florence paper recounts the following
antiquarian hoax,whicb may be new to some
readers: Towards the close of the last
century a learned priest, named Joseph
Colucci, was engaged, under Papal auspices,
in the task of collecting and illustrating the
ancient monuments remaining in the district
of Picenum, in the modern province of
Ancona. During the course of his labors,
comprised in a voluminous work, entitled
"l i e Antichita Picene," Colucci received from
a brother priest and wit, named Tondini, a
communication of an interesting description,
which the writer asserted to have bean
recently brought to light in the neighborhood
of Ascoli. The inscription was considerably
defaced by time,but, by patience and ingenuity
the last portion had been replaced, the sug
gestions of the discoverer being supported by
a long and erudite dissertation which accArn
pan ied Tondini's letter, plentifully seasoned,
as may be imagined, with comolimentary
references to Colacci's learning, and holding
out promises of further communications of
the same character.
Colucci fell into the trap, and published
the pretended inscription in the seventeenth
volume of his series, where it appears in the
following form. The capital letters repre
sent the legible portion of the monument, the
remainder having been supplied by the dis
coverer:
Some time afterwards Tondini,to the great
amusement of the kterary world,gave the true
rendering of the inscription, which is simply
as follows•
" 'Se publicate quest' inscritione voi siete
un grau coglione (If you publish this inscrip
tion, you are an-ass);'
The affair, however, had a tragical end, for
when poor Colucci found how he had been
fooled, he took to his bed and died soon after.
So, at least, says the Corriere Italian°.
The Paris Gaulois tells this story, which is
likely to be a canard:
"Every year, on the same day., at the same
bour—yesterday was the mysterious anniver
sary—a beautiful woman of about thirty-five,
the age that Balzac comes to
the Palais Boyal on foot, and enters the fa
mous 'Freres Provencaux.' She is always
alone, always dressed in black and deeply
veiled; she wears no ornaments that might
attract attention, no jewels, save two beauti
ful black pearls in her ears. Without saying
a word to any one, she walks quickly up the
stairs, and enters the private room No. 4.
The proprietor of the - establishment, who
knows her ways, orders her dinner, consisting
always of the same dishes. These are, au
placed upon the table at the same time, and

THE COUP D'ETAT.
"Parts en Decembre 1851. Etude hielo
4en:igue tur-le Coup d'Etat. Par Eugene
Minot." Fans: Le Chevalier. 18G8.--'
Tenot, by sheer dint of self-control,' has
succeeded in writing a political argument so
crushing, so calm, so unanswerable, so prii
llent, that the government finds nothing to
say; while the public reads it with a delight
and excitement hardly matched by Rochefort
and La Lanterne. The fact is, Parts en
Dieembre is a weighty historical study, and
differs completely from the satire of an
ephemeral journal or a demagogic placard.
Its author holds himself invincible behind his
mass of facts, provable by documents, at the
same time that they constitute an argument
more terrible than any rhetoric. The ex
treme moderation of his style gives a relishing
flavor to . the .scathing truths he quietly re
vives:
"I have not had the assurance to try and
write a history, in the complete and lofty tic ;
ce,ptation of the term. I relate, in the spirit ,
of a simple and modest reporter. I exhibit
the facts : I neither estimate nor judgithem.
Ido not give myself the trouble to know
,whether the Coup d'Etat was rendered neces
sary by high considerations of public safety,
or whether its authors yielded to different
springs of action; ,I do not even ask the ques
tion whether the 'act was legitimate or not;
I neither blame nor praise the means put into
operation for executing it. I enter into no
controversy about the plebiscite of the 20th
December; I verify the figures and I print the
official discourses pronounced on that occa
sion." ,
Nothing is more certain to inspire confi
dence in the reader than this air of modera
tion: M. Tenot has suddenly found a revolu
tionary weapon more terrible than invective.
"I am persuaded," be smoothly says, with
the air of mock respect so withering in an
intelligent opponent :
"I am persuaded,: although many are of a
contrary opinion,that anarration of this sort,
true andimpartial, irept as far off from the
pamphlet,seulb he from the apology, may be
produced at this time =objectionably. It
seems to me that I should offer a grave Insult
to a government proud of its origin, a gov
ernment which supports itself upon two ple
biscites carried by immense majorities,which
has been governing more than sixteen years
without ever having had to' put
down an insurrection or a seri
ous disturbance, which at each legislative
election finds for itself a solid and devoted
majority, which has itself just proclaimed
that the moment has come for crowning the
' edifice put together with the institutions of
1852 by liberal reforms ; it seems to me, I
say, that I should be offering a grave insult
to, this gov,ernment to suppose it unable to
fa
a conscientious and' impartial recital of
fa anterior to the plebiscite of December
2 ,of facts shriven (the expression is Louis
Napoleon's), Shi•iven by this plebiscite."
The Administration has had nothing to do
but to walk in the line so serenely laid down
fOr it-by M. Venot. It has interdicted' La
basterne, but it has endured the Paris en
Decembre.
The retrospective pages in which M. Tenet
reviews the Parliamentary history of France
from the President's election in 1848, are the
most novel, and not the least interesting, parts
of his work.
The French Constitution had, upon thi s
election, for its principal safeguard the fol
lowing provision, to be found in its 08th Ar
ticle : "Any measure under which the Presi
dent of the Repulilic dissolves the National
Assembly, prorogues it, or places an obstacle
before the exercise of its mandates, is a crime
of. High Treason. By this deed alone the
President is deprived of his functions, and
citizens are bound to refuse him obedience.e
The Constitution which included this claus"
bad to be adopted by oath by the new Presi
dent Louis Napoleon, however, having at
his command a force of 500,000 soldiers, was
not much concerned by the complications of
mere tape. He well knew, if France as yet
but imperfectly knew, that in Republics
BB in Monarchies the only effectua
check upon the disposition to encroach
is found in the limits of the physical force
at its disposaL The ties between the Presi
dent and his soldiery were strengthened in
every possible way, and the expedition into
Kabylia projected simply and solely to give
prestige to the little knot of captains and en
fans perdus of the army who rallied around
him with visions of a Coup d'Etat and =-
limited advancements. The Kabylia raid '
was organized solely to "make Generals," and
to entitle St Arnaud to the dignity of Mo
ister of War. "It will be most agreeable to '
the President," said Fleury to Dr. Veron on
ttie eve of the war, "if the rare merits and
services about to be performed by Gen
eral Saint-Arnaud in Kabylia were to be put
in a full and brilliant light" The government I
press seconded the hint by watching and
flattering this Arab-choker during the cam
paign.
So early as 1849 the President, in a Mes
sage. clearly indicated the policy which he
steadily pursued up to its culmination in the
Coup d'Etat. "France," said Louis Napoleon
then, "France, disquieted because she sees no
one in authority, detilres the hand, the will,
the banner of the Elect of December 10th.
On that 10th December a complete system
triumphed; for the name of Napoleon is a
whole programme in itself; it would say, to
the country, order, authority,religion and the
prosperity of the people; to foreigners, na
tional dignity. It is this policy inaugurated
by my election which I desire to carry on in
triumph with the support of the Assembly
and of the people." This sounds like bold
language for a ruler whose term of office
would expire in a little more than three
years, and who, by the terms of the Consti
tution, was ineligible for re-election.
In nineteen months, however, the Prince,
his military connections well soldered, was
ready for aetill more direct rupture_withthe
National Assembly. At the moment when
the latter conceived some conciliatory project
of repealing the clause which made a re
election illegal, the President alluded to it in
language which Mr. Tenot calls "a veritable
declaration of war." In a speech at Dijon
the President ventured upon the following
language:
"For three years it may have been remarked
/ that I have been invariably seconded by the
Assembly when there has been question of
meeting disorder by compulsory measures.
But so soon as I have desired to do good, and
ameliorate the fate of . the population, it has
refused •me this assistance. . . If
France were aware that no Assembly has a
right to dispose of her without her own con
sent, France would only have to say to
courage_ and_ energy shall never fail
him !"
In those days it was Loub3Napoleon's habit
to prepare the public mind for what we now
call Ctesarian by monotonous harp:lgs on the

800,000 francs for it, and in this .country by
tbeSHiEl.. ApPleton, who have bought ad
vance sheets. The translation will have a
translated title—"By the King's Com
mand."
A change has now taken place in the style
of one of our oldest and most sincerely res
pected literary firms. The title "Ticknor &
Fields," which has alwayigiven the reader a
feeling of confidence on recognizing it at the
base of the fly-leaf of any new book, will be
come a thing of history. The partnership is
now dissolved by mutual consent, Mr. How
ard M. Ticknor retiring. An energetic assis-_
tont of the house for eighteen years past, Mr.
John S. Clark, enters the new firm. In part
ing with the worthy retiring member, and
cordially welcoming the fresh partner, we
take occasion to express our firm assurance
that the new company will continue those
traditions of probity, intelligence and devo
tion hong metier to the best interests of our
literature, which have so honorably distin
gubled the house. The new title will be
"Fields, Osgood &C 0.," and will date from
Oct. 29.
English and American Women.
Dr. Holland ("Timothy Titeomb") Writes
from England to the Springfield Repub
lican-: .
"I confess to a little disappointment in the
Englishman physically. No American, pass
ing through the streets of London, would
imagine that he was among a people superior,
physically, to I& own. I speak only of the
men. The English woman is larger and
stronger than her American sister, but 1 am
yet to be convinced of the physical superiority
of the Englishman to the American. * • •
I have the authority of a competent and can
did English woman for the statement that
the American woman is the handsomer.
There can be no_question. I think, that the
average American girl is more beautiful than
her conain across• the water. She has
greater delicacy of feature, and generally a
finer make-up. She matures earlier, and, it
is quite likely, fades sooner, but the fact that
she is prettier is not to be disputed. The girl
here is, also, under the usages of English
society, a suppressed creature, without the
freedom that favors vivacity. The American
girl is perfectly at home in society before the
English girl sees society at all, or has ever
been permitted to escape the eye of her gov
erness or her mother.
"The American girl maybe much too for
ward, but I am sure that the English girl suf
fers by too great bondage. Female education
in the two countries differs greatly, and, sin
gular as it may seem, the education of the
English girl ismore showy than that of the
American. As a general thing, the English
girl knows little or nothing of mathematics
and the natural sciences. These branches in
America absorb a great deal of time, as you
know; and you will find multitudes of Ame
rican girls who are adepts in them. That, in
the education of the English girl, which
strikes an American, is their knowledge of
language, of literature, of music and o:draw
ing. Everything which contributes to show
in society is acquired by the English girl. I
cannot recall among my English traveling ac
quaintances a lady who could not speak
French, and several of them have spoken
French, Italian and German with entire fa
cility. With these languages at command,
with a wide acquaintance with history and
belles lettres, and with the accomplishments
of sketching and playing thepiano, it must
be acknowledged that the English girl shows
for all that she is, and that for social purposes
her acquisitions are greatly superior to those
of the American girl."
Proudhon 7 s Youth,
The Revue Moderne publishes fragments
of Proudhon's autobiography. Here is what
the great thinker writes about his youth:
"Destined, originally, to learn the trade of a
mechanic, I was sent as a free pupil to the
college of Besancon, in accordance with the
advice which a friend had given to my father.
The free scholarship saved my family one
hundred and twenty francs a year; but what
is that to a family often lacking food and
clothes? The most necessary books were
nearly always wanting to me. I made all my
Latin studies without a dictionary. After
translating into Latin all the words which I
remembered, I left blanks in those
which I did not know, and filled
them out at the college door. I was
punished a hundred times for forgetting
my books; the fact was that I did not have
any. During my vacations I constantly
worked in the fields or toiled at home; my
father was a cooper, and I always fetched the
wood which he needed from the forest for
him. I pursued my studies amidst the poverty
of my_family, and suffered in consequence a
thousand humiliations which the cruel world
is only too ready to inflict upon sensitive boys
growing up under such circumstances. My
father, who suffered greatly from sickness
and business reverses, had to carry on, be
sides, a lawsuit, which completed his ruin.
The very day when this suit was to be decided
I was to receive a prize at college. All the
other pupils were accompanied by their pa
rents, and those who received prizes were
embraced by their happy fathers and mo
thers; but my family was atthe court-house.
I shall never forget that day. The principal
of the college asked me if any of my relatives
were present that they might witness nay tri
umph ? 'None of them are here, M. le Rec
teur,' I replied. 'Very well,' said he, shall
crown and embrace you.' I never was more ,
profoundly agitated. When I returned home
I found my family in the deepest distress.
My mother was weeping and lameuting.
We had lost our lawsuit: Our supper on that
evening was • bread and water. My father
then said, 'You are eighteen. When I was
as old as you L euued, already, a liying.7-1-
t and Oft he was right, and entered .a print
g office."

Important Ilnk of the great Inter-Oceanic Railroad, two
thirds of which are already built, at a cost of nearly
ONE HUNDRED MILLIONS,
And which enjoys already a self-sustahling way traffic.
The whole Line of continuous rail between
New York and San Francisco
will be completed by July next, when an immense
through business will undoubtedly follow. More than
1,200 HILES of the distance between the Missouri River
and the Pacific Ocean are already traversed by the loco
motive; and it is probable that 800 miles additional will
be completed during the current year. The future of this
Line. therefore, is minimally promising. The

millions of acres of the
PUBLIC LANDS,

The Cash Resources are abundant for the completion
of the work, and the NET EARNINGS, FROM THE
WAY TRAFFIC UPON 350 MILES NOW OPEN FOR
BUSINESS, ARE MORE THAN DOUBLE THE CUR
RENT INTEREST LIABILITIES.
riv- Besides a mileage upon all through business, this
Road, having the beat lands for settlement, the moat pro
ductive mines, the nearest. markets, and being exempt
from competition, will always command LARGE REVS.
NUES, WHICH ARE WHOLLY IN COIN.
Twathirds Of the entire Loan is already marketed.and,
judging by past experience, the Loan will soon be closed.

only at the currency rates.
