«£ rßOßixn - ricnom Fiction, beginning .with tlie story, gradually developed it to the novel. , At first,. *as in j&e • early Greek romances, it. attempted to interest by vividness ofnarraUon. and,by start-' ling inciden's. Fiction died,! in tile genial over-turn of everything, atid wasponly borh again in the Ihlrteenthp centtiry, when it began on the old plan of incident Gradually, men began to see that its higher- uSes were, to por tray life as it is, aiid to show the springs of men’s actions under the various aud complex influences of human society. Art proceeds upwards from the simplest forms; and, surely, of all artistic efforts that of novel writing is the highest. For it \ is] far harder to set down in. words life in i{s entirety than' it is to paint the shifting shadows on a hillside. The painter takes one moment and one .view. The novel ist, from bis standpoint, even if he shows only one phase of life—that with whjch ho is at the time the most familiar—has yet to do with both the Seen and the unseen. And whereas, in the old story-teller, the puppets of his story showed as ' the only living beings in the whole world, the modern novelist, by skilful sugges tion* by by-play, and by subsidiary action, manages to introduce into bis book that atmo sphere of the outer world which is needed to complete the illusion. Aud—for no man can write anything worth the reading save from his own experience—be introduces the opinions wbicb be has formed on the conduct of - the world, and uses , them .not only to direct the leader’s attention.to the great circles of life supposed to be whirling round the imaginary men and women of his history, but also to answer social problems, and to give his own views on social'difficulties.'"'-/'; . : Of these, problems, the ? most important, be cause it strikes us the ; most often, and is the fountain of tears and the cause of sympathy, we may call the problem of . suffering ; not why it exists—a question which Man'Friday asked at the outset of his. education, and which he does, not appear to have been encouraged to re peato-but what aie its sources, and how far it may he alleviated ? Questions which admit, and have received, various answers from phi losophers, novelists, and statesmen. Let us here consider the theories implied, rather than stated, in a few of the leading nov elists. ■■r---,..--.-.-.-..',- , ---!- - Thackeray, if I read :him j-ightly, discarding altogether the old-fashioned notions of villains arid the sorrows they cause,seems to have been governed by a great ruling idea. His busiuess was to teach the world—not directly, as no novelist should, but indirectly—the lesson that every man is his own villain; that is, that all roal suffering is self-inflicted, save that which consists in seeing others" suffer. Thus, Clive Newcome, who married Rosey; Barnes, who leads a life of consistent selfishness; Rev. Mr. Honeyman, extravagant and luxurious: these bring on their heads their own punishment. The happy man is the Colonel. He neither sins nor does he suffer. The storms of life heat over his brave old head; and, in his pov erty-stricken age, he is as-calm and as ...happy, but for his son; as in his prosperous manhood. ’jhackeray’s villains—chiefly selfish men of the lowest type, such as Sir Francis Clavering, Talbot TwysdenjjJos. Sedley and LordSteyue —do not seriously affect the rest of the actors; _ ' „ : r j mionno r\f fnilv * thpv fall in the world because the d?b)is ot locks which-have originally had fqllpn into evil courses* thev lose 5 gold disseminated through them.

Does the water so circulating npw ; hold gold in solution? One would think it would not be difficult for a chemist in Australia or California to determine the fact by direct experiment, but it does not appear that it has ever been tried. ftaE HOBBOBB OF .

Harder by Wealthy Men---Hideous Cruelty—-A Soil :• of One or tlie ElrateEofltte’s Hen Ini ■ plicated | From tho Burlington (lowa} Gnzotto, August 11.] Henderson county is .also imitated at this frme with a case of peculiar horror.... It turns out that in the latter pari; of May, 1804, an old man about sixty years of age, whose name we are unable to learn, crossed the ferry from this city with a considerable sum of money in his possession. It amounted somewhere from $l,BOO to $5,000. Tie liad just sold his farm in Missouri;-and intended-to purchase land in Henry coiinty, 111. He stopped at the farm house of "White Anderson, a notorious charac ter who was run out of the country, during the war; but lias since returned. He talked with White awhile, anil then went up fo. the'faim houso of De Hague, with the intention of re maining all night. This De Hague’s father settled' on the family place many years ago, but is now dead. He was.a ferocious character, and was a pirate on the ocean for eleven years. He served under that famous Frenchman Lafitte.aud, with that redoubtable chieftain, was pardoned at the re commendation of General Jackson for heroic conduct at the battle with the British at Mew Orleans. He looked the very picture of savage fierceness, and was much dreaded by his neighbors. Before his death he was considered rather wealthy, owning a fine property and be ing otherwise well established^-Helefc several sons. This oneseems to have inherited many of his father’s qualities. 7 Late in the evening of which we speak the present De Hague turned the old traveler out of his house and sent him over to Squire Parks’. ■ Darks then sent out-for Robert Von, Dan McCue and one or two others. De Hague also went over to his house. In a short time afterward the old man,'whd'had‘ gone to bed up stairs by this time, was called up and brought out to the front yard; A horse be longing to Yon was found hitched to the fence, with a pair of saddle-bags oh it. The old man was asked if he knew the horse and equipments. He said he did not, but that he knew the saddle-bags, as they were his. lie was then accused of being ' a horse thief and of trying to steal Yon’s animal'. Tic was taken out into the orchard and hung twice, for the purpose of extorting a confession. The poor old victim had nothing to confess. He was then taken to the woods by Yon, De Hague and Squire Parks. The balance of the party were requested nof to follow, but they heard him being beaten with foils until —his ‘shrieks filled gthe -air.- After that both his hands were chopped oft' with a hatchet, while he was still alive, and he was then murdered. His mouey, it is sup posed, was divided among the three. There is now no sort of doubt but that De Hague is the man who cut his hands off. Some girls dis covered the body concealed in a creek on the following morning. The matter was kept quiet until evening, when the three murderers took the body out to an old half-filled cistern on the prairie aDd flung it in. The cistern was afterwards filled by the drifting of the prairie sand. Some time ago a farmer went to the old cistern to obtain the brick with which it was walled. In digging out the sand, a hired man named William Cook exhumed the skeleton of the murdered man. It was evident that the hands had been cut off. The entire cistern was cleared out, hut the skeleton hands could not be found. This hideous discovery brought the whole affair to publicity. It had long been I whispered, but people feared to speak their [ minds on the subject. ; De Hague, no w very wealthy, is u nder bonds to the amount of $lO,OOO to answer the charge of murder. Ilis trial will shortly come oft' at Oquawka. Yon left , for Missouri some time ago, fearing an exposure of the outrage. The principal witness -against De Hague is Dan McCue, one of the party who met at Parks’ house, but who did -not actually take part in the murder. \lt is reported, however, that he received sloo'as his share. Allot the victim’s money was In ’gold. De Hague and McCue have long been fearing and hating one another. They both carry two revolvers each and are always on then - guard, it is reported to us that De Hague .has uofeslept in his. house for , two years, lest he should be murdered. He conceals himself in his haystack. He Often visits Burlington and is never seen without a carpet-hag iu his hand. That carpet hag contains two large sized navy revolvers, ’ loaded and ready for instant „ -use. To people living about the ferry landing bis appearance is very familiar. A short time ago, and since De Hague’s arrest for murder, McCue one morning found the water of his well impreg nated with arsenic, and also arsenic scattered about the curbstone. He immediately asserted that De Hague had made au attempt to poison fiim, in order to shut off his testimony at the Mining trial. Both'these men live in mortal fear and apprehension of oue another, their mutual dread and hatred making life-, a; hell. White Anderson, one of the gang, is > accused bf all sorts of misdeeds, and is also quite’ Wealthy. ; " The nefarious deeds of these kind of men, shielded by their ill-gotten wealth, have ren dered the people, of Henderson county despe rate.

Many wc-ro the' speculations as to the cause,but nobody seemed to divine the truth! You may T . judge (it oiu: surprise when,,four minutes later. _ - we-saw a " French'- officer.' estorted 'by two' uhlans, coming at a hard trot up a steep bridle path from Sedan to our post, one of the uhlans carrying a white duster on a faggot stick as a flag of truce. 'flu* messenger turned out to be a French colonel, come to ask terms of surrender. After a very short consultation between the King aud General Von Mollke, the messenger was' told that, in a matter 60 important as the surrender of at least So,ooo men and an important for tress. it was necessary to send an officer ot high iank. Vou are therefore to return to Sedan and tr il the governor ol'the town to report himself immediately. • If he does not arrive in an hour rurpin> wht-'again Open lire. You may tell the commandaut that there is no use of his Irvine to obtain any other terms than uncon ditional surrender.. The messenger lode back v. iili the message. When he waafairlv out of earshot his mission was most eagerly can - - . : vassed; - ; -- l - •• - . ■ •••'- ■ At half past six there arose a sudden ery among memberu of the King’s stall of “ Vvr JMur-M da,’’ and then came a .loud hurrah. Soon we begau to look anxiously fbra second "ag of truce, aud in ten minutes mote General' Reilly rode up with a letter for the King of Prussia. As soon as the French general was insight the slender escort of cuirassiers and dragoons we bad with us was drawn up In hue two deep behind the King. In front of the escort was the -'staff, and ten stood King William To I receive General Reilly., Tliat officer, as we soon learned, was the bearer of an auloerapli letter fiom the Emperor Napoleon to King William. The Emperor of the French wrote: „ “ As I cannot die at the head of the army. 1 lay my sword at the feet of your Majesty." N'e jKiin aut pas inouvre a la tele demon armc, je visits wettre mon csste aux pletls de votre majeste. . On the receipt-of this most astounding letter there was a brief consultation between the King aud Crown I’rince—who had come over from the hill on the arrival of the flag of true-' —Count Bismarck, General Von Moltke and Von Itoon. The King wrote to the Emperor begging him to come next morning to the King oi Prussia's headquarters at Vcudres. While this note was being wr.tten, Count Bismarck came up to Generals, .Sheridan and Forsythe and myself, and heartily shook our hands. “Let me congratulate you most sincerely. County’said General Sheridan; “jl can only compare the surrender of Napoleon to that of Lee at Appomattox Court House.l’ When it came my turn to grasp the Chancellor’s hand, 1 could not help saying, after 1 had warmly congratulated him : •' You cannot but feel a pr ide, Count Bismarck, in having contributed so largely to tbe winning of to-day’s victory." “ Ob, my dear sir,” was tbe mild answer, VI ammo strategist, and have nothing to 1 do with (lie winning of battles. What lam proud of is that the Bavariaus, the Saxons--and- the Wurtembergers have not -only been-on our side, hilt have had so large a share in the glory, of the day. That they are with us aud uot against us, that is my doing. I do not think the French will say now that the South Ger mans will not,,fight for our common Father land.” I asked bis Excellency whether Louis was taken with his papa, and was told that trb one knew. When the King bad written his letter he himself handed it to General Reilly, who stood, bareheaded, to receive it. At twenty minutes of eight General Reilly -v” loft forthe'boleagnfed-.townreßCorted' by the nblans. Early next morning I started for Bel gium, and on my way.met the traveling car riages of liis Majesty, with Napoleon,Hl., on his way tp jePdrt himself a ..prisoner at King William’s headquarters, at Vendres. 1 .

The members of the Left were much excited. Kc i.ury insisted Unit'the Chamber should not be guarded by troops. ! deputy Lonce alleged that Palifcao had ex ceeded his powers in giving orders at variance •■'hh those of Trocbu. Palikao endeavored to explain, but was called to order on account of the sharp ex pressions he used. He proposed a project of law. Jules Favre asked him to state to the Cham ber what would be the new situation caused by the project. The government Chamber ad mits the urgency of this proposal, but insists on double grounds on its own right to frame such project. Its own project bad been set aside, and in the second place it confers much wider powers than that bf the government. Thiers said all hls.persoukl preferences were in favor of the project- of Jules- Favre, but that, as he set aside his own impressions for the public good, he submitted to the many members comprising ail parties the following project: That, whereas, seeing the present absence of the requisite authority, a commission,to consist of five members named by the Corps Leubtlalif bo charged with the government and - with, tbij defence of the nation ; a Constituent Assembly to be convened as soon as circumstances will permit. M. Thi ers made brief remarks in reference to those opposed to : tliis, project; they hold e ■. cry variety of opinion. M, Schneider thought it necessary to consult, the Chamber as to the need of the proposi. tior.s. 11. Cambetta demanded that the Chambers shall at once pronounce as to the necessity of this project of law. At half-past four the body adjourned. - The tribunes 'Smpi'onuding tlie.Chaiiiber.were. thronged with people who'called loudly for a declaration of the downfall of the Empire and the proclamation of a ltepublic. Most of the Deputies left the chamber. Cambetta and otheps appealed to. the people to respect the liberty of the deliberations'of the Chamber, and to listen in silence. These ap peals were-useless; There was a. scene of in describable agitation, jtnd in. the midst of it ruse enthusiastic cries of “ Fire la Rcpab ?; yce,” theipeople,(National Guard- aud sol diers fraternizing with each other. “ Gambetta and other members of the Left proclaimed the overthrow of the Empire. Then a deputation of these ‘ members, fol lowed by crowds of people, went to the Hotel ile Ville, to proclaim a provisional government.
