One day MU Evans called a Mr. Derby'
office awl left the manuscript, which he took
homo and read to hi fa;nily, who nil thought
it well worth publishing. Mr. Gooi-go liipley,
who "read" for him on a salary, us well as
for othor hot!w-3, al3 pronouui-i-d favorably
on tlie book, and it was no booiht jiuLlblnxi
than iU uccvwi was made. 1-Vw noveb.
have ever reached a larger w'le. To how
thnt what ohm fMiblLshnr thinks is not
ww aarily thought well of by nnolli'-T, 1
rniht mention that "Beulah'' wa rcjectod

t!io book that niM-arod was from bis jxin an.
was condemnatory; the second nMta.rod in
tho old Couri'-r nud Iiujnirer of this city, an
was written by its editor, Mr. Spalding,
afterward editor of The Times, who iiaM.Ht
it in the strongest terui3.
Soon after this review appear!, Mr.
HpauMiug wrote to Mr. Derby, and aske.
him who was tin; author of this book, and il
it would uot lio.ssiMe for him to moet her.
He had found u kindred soul, and wits inia

was then iu Now York, nnd he would couve
Mr. SjiauMiny's wishes to her and givo hi.
answor. Miss Evans, w1k wan staying at th
St. Nicholas hotel, expressed her willinsne
to meet Mr. Spaulding, and Mr. Derb
brought liim up and introduced him. Ti.
adjtiuintaiK-e riproe.1 into friendship, an
the friendship into something more, for i
was ii.it lou before the nortliern tdito
and soulheru novelist were engaged to b
marrifl.
In tho mean time the civil war broke out
Miss Evans wan n secessionist of the strongo.
type, nnd Mr. Smuldni was aa strong fo
tho Union. His iolitical feelings, how;ver
did not interfere with bis private friendship
and an opix.rlimity offering; he went south t.
be ii';in iuL To his surprise ho found t'.iu
Lis promised bride no longer felt the same ri

imiKtssable, and so they partotL Ench mai

lives in her beloved southland. Spaulding t
no more. He died soon after his marriagi
While tho war w.-us raging, Miss Evans wrot
another novel railed "Macaria," which wn
publkluil in Richmond. Va. A copy of thi
was sout by tbe author to Mr. Derby,
was thun Uimiiorarily out of
publishing husiin-ss. He, however,
tinned hii inleivst iu this author,
ho took the book to Mr. J. B.

Lippmeutt at once agreed to, and promise
tho author the usual 10 per cent, royal t
though by law s,ho was not entitled to any
thing, hor look having been published in tin
Confederacy.
While tho plates were being made, Michae
Dooludy of this city, a bX)kseller of prac

t ta, nni was getting it sot up as fast as th.
printers could work. Mr. I-ijipiiicott, heai

Jraw from the liel.l if ho, D-iolady, would
Uj;n a contract to pay him, for tho author, i
royalty on its sales, otherwise ho would s?".
tho pl.-ites at cost to another publisher. Doo
lady agreed and the contract was signed.
In the moan time the war was over, an
one day Mr. Derby received a call at his oi
fice in Spruce street from a lady. She wa
ushorcd into his presence, and, just as he wa
about to ask her business, he recognized Mis
Evans. "Why, Augusta," said he, "wha
does this mean'" for she was very shabbil.
attired and pale and wan. "I have com.
north," said she, "with my brother, who i
sitting out on your doorstep now. Ho wa:
wounded in the war, and I want one of you
northern doctors to look after him." "Th
fir&t thing for you to do," said Mr. Derby, "i
to come right to my house with your brother,
the second to get some new clothes; thes
you have on are very shabby." "I know
they are," she replied, "but it can't b
bellied. We lart everything bv the war, an
I haven't a penny." "Why. yes you
nave," said Mr. Derby, "I have $3,000 oi
your money in the bank." "Impossible'
Where did it come from " "From tho sale?
of 'Marcalia,' and I have been waiting to
know where to send it."
Of course this was a precious windfall, and
it was uot long before Miss Evans was on hei
feet again. Since that time Mr. Carletoi
ha published Miss Evans' works. Her "St.
Elmo" she dedicated to Mr. Derby.
A BIG TERRITORY.
Alaska'a Biz 3, Extent of Coast L ne,
an I Wealth ol ximber.
Rnharuah," iu St Louis Globe-Democrat
The extent of this northwest territory an
tho vast distances between points are inon
than bewildering. Alaska itself is equ.il ii.
area to all of tho United States east of th.
Mississippi river. Counting the Aleutian
chain, the Pribyloff group and the 1,0U
islands of tbe Alexander archipelago, the
total area of the Alaska islands is 31,200
square miles.
The island cf Attn, the last of the Aleutian
chain, is as far west of San Francisco as
Bangor, Me., is east of it, and the indented
coast line of Alaska, measuring over 25,00b
miles, is even greater that tho whole coast
line of tho Atlantic and Pacific shores of the
United States put together. Southern
Alaska, as it is called, comprises the narrow
strip of . territoiy that extends southward
from Mount St. Elias to Dixon channel, the
bounilary line between Alaska and British
Columbia. This thirty-milo strip of land,
with its outlying islands, is the best kncwi.
part of the territory, and, with tho exception
of Onalaska and the Seal islands, is the seat
of the only white settlements of any conse
quence or promise. Dense forests clothe tbe
islands and mainland of southern Alaska
and "darken a region half as large as Eu
rope." Although tho rocky foundations are only
covered with a thin, sandy soil, vegetation
nourishes with a rankness that can not be
surpassed in the tropics. The closo forests of
yellow cedar, Sitka and Douglass spruce,
Jeffreys pine and balsam fir have never been
devastated by fiis, and for unnumbered ages
only glaciers or avaAnch?s have iaterferec
wiih tbe steady processes of nature. Tht
Russians cleared a little ground about
their settlements, but later inhabitants Lave
made no efforts in that way, since crops
can not be raised with success ana
tue re are not enough horses or cattle for any
one to direct their attention to grasses that
can not be dried in the constant downpour.
Tbe stumps of trees will never rot in tbe
ground, and the fallen trunks in tbe forest
form a network Like the corners of rail fences,
with each log covered with thick mosses and
grasses, and bearing a dense growth of rank
ferns, bushes and sniull trees.
It is wholly impossible to penetrate the for
ests without a path first being hewn through
tbe thickly ramrod tree trunks, and in the
wood paths about Sitka one frequently set-s
trees two and three f-vt in diameter, growin.
over tbe pros tram forms of pined of even
greater dimcusioui If you stp aside
from tbe path to force your way
through the underbrush to raac.
clusters of crimson and orange salmon berries,
you may suddenly be engulfed, and sink two
or ten feet into u pitfall of mossy logs. Only
tho et rtaiuty tlutt there are no snakes or
creeping things i:t Alaiv'i enco-i rages ono to
venture a-sidu from tbo narrow and graveled

John himself says he is "tho lt man on tho

instance, futile princoi in real goodness, as
all mn, nrtii-u!nrly himself, will admit. Mr
Sullivan's virtue is of another kind. He

To the other bide creation crept."
John is the unquestioned champion of all
pugilists. Tis the voice of tho slugger; I
hear him complain that there are no more
worlds to conquer. Let him rest eay. To
jvery man cometh his Waterloo, and J. L S.
will yet lind his'n. Meanwhile, he is a typo
t the times and worth a littlo ttudy. His
or-room, of which so much has been said, is
lot partictdarly j-alatiaL A good deal of
loney has evidently been expended i't jrild
"g, glassware and In ass ware, and there is a
lude. picture on the wall, nearly life size, rejv
xseutiiig the "Birth of Venus," which prob
tlly cost a good deal more money than it is
trtistically or commercially worth. The fair
Vphrodite is painted in the approved Parisian
.yle of art; that is, sho has not a pretty face,
uid her figure is more suggestive of the cor-iet-cducated
boulevards than of nature's
nold, my Nora Creiua. A bust of the pro
, rieUir of the place sunnounts the cornice of
vood over the bar. It is cut in soma sort of
ard, yellow wood and is a p.ior likeness. So,
iy the way, are all the photographs and
irinls of the great man.
None do him justice, for all make him ftp
ear a coars, thick-lipped bruiser, which he
not. He has regular features, a straight
os and a clean-cut mouth, which would be
.andsome but for the little dogged droop at
ae corners not completely hidden by his jet
.lUstache. It is also marred a littlo by a
enuency, no doubt a legacy from his early
tigging days, to throw his under jaw out, in
ie well-known conventional "what-d'yer-
oy expression which, accompanied by a
.itching down of the head and a curving of
ne shoulder.-), is the "tough boy's" favorite
.tethod of carrying dismay into the heart of
m opjionent. John has got over the what-.'yer-soy
period, but the protruding jaw ap---ars
at times as a relic of the obsolete age.
ut for it he would bo a handsome and even
i pleasant-looking man until you looked into
sis eyes. Pretty hard eyes to describe. I did
ot even note their color, the expression of
hem taking up all one's attention.
Once I s-iw in Central park a lion which
.ad been recently impoi-ted and had not ac
iiiired the conventional blase stare of tho
enagerie. When j ou looked at him and
i catch his eye he looked, not at you, but
arough nnd beyond ou, with a compre
.ensive, open gazo in which the humanizing
lefore him occupied no more attention than
je moto in the sunbeam. Well, that is just
he way the smgger looks at one, or through
ne a wild-animal look, but not a wild look.
Jou feel that, as an ordinary human, you do
ot even block his light. There is another
XDression, and it is also an animal one, a
, iick, sharp way of glancing about, without
loving his head, which convinces me that I
vould not care to try surprising him with
ne undci the ear. For the rest, the cham
ion boxer would not attract one's attention
n the street by any apparc.it superiority of
trength or skill lie does not look tall or
u-ong beyond the sons of men, but they say
oat when he is undressed he looms up and
ecomes a giant. Ho did not strip for me.
.'either did I interview him, save in the
lute an 1 modest manner of an humble ad
jirer afar off.
I w ish I could add that tho Hon. Mr. Sul-
van hod another and a finer nature, that in
is private and un professional life he is an
.mirer of Emerson, and always carries a
py of "Omar Khayyam" in his gripsack. I
ui constrained to say, however, that John's
ner intellectual nature is still "dormouse,"
i", indeed, it hath any germ of life at alL Ho
a slugger, and nothing else. I doubt if ho
von succeeds as a vendor of tho beverage
t-hich out-sluggeth all sluggers. However,
m is young yet, as was said of "Jim Smalls,"
ud there is no knowing what a Bostonian
nay sprout into with the growth of tho inner
ife. To quoto again from tho "Concord
hilosophy:" "Feeling implies self-action,
he egoaltruistic perceptivity, not only in re
ictiou of the environment as in nutrition,
ut in producing tbe impression made by the
iivironiuent withm tbe soul of the animal,
his reproduction is accompanied, co-rela-.vely
and co-ordinately, by an unconscious
attsality, or infereuce, which transfers tho
(vision of tho feeling to an external world."

My observation is that greod nnd extrava
gant prices have ruined most of our Hummer
resorts. Saratoga was doing splendidly ten
years ago, and eople who visit! it thought
they would likH to have residences thfre, but
real estate agents sat upon every corner and
began to boom the property. Mr. A. T.
Stewart, became disgusted at the attempt of a
church to make him pay hugely for a l.ttle
piece of ground tlntt obstructed the coin plcte
nessof bis I.I.M.-k, so h built around Lhem,
darkened their windows and paid no further
attention to property there. Judge Hilton
has been a sort of John Hoey to Saratoga of
late years, and if hn should let go his interi-st
the place would prolotbly subside relatively.
Hilton's Windsor hotel, 1 am told, is next to
empty, and the news we get from Saratoga
iu August is that tbo number of visitors bus
been very small, running in some of tho big
gest hotels not above 4K) or 500, where
there are nearly 1,000 bed rooms. The Ijcsi
piece oi property mere to io business is t;..ii
gress ball, which cost aliout tS(K),om. bti.
wm, bought at a foreclosure sale for about
$100,000, making a rent of .0,000 or ?,oou a
year.
Coney island was devoured by Mr. On bin,
who made arbitrary rules governing coitnge
bites and endeavored to play tho game of the
A. T. Stewart estate at Garden City, where
no man was allowed to own anything, nnd
had to live somewhat like an English tenant,
subject to eviction, warning and moral dis
cipline. In like manner. Coney island, or
that part of it to which the title is good, was
picked up by two railroad conijiaiiios, nn.f
they seem to think that if it were covered
with gold dollars it would lie a cheap pur
chase I think the time is coming when
Coney island real estate will becheapenoiigli.
Indeed, ixiuntry real estate around New Yuri;
goes begging, and almost every min who
bought a uumber of acres at fancy prices
twenty years ago has lived to regret 1m pur
chase. I have a friend who spent tSO.OX) on T.0112
island, invented n town, erected a large house
and spent plentiful money on his gardens,
nnd laid out roads, nnd a few years ago, an
noyed by his uninteresting neighlors, and by
the willfulness of tho railroad authorities he
shut up his house, abandoned the place, and
told me some time ago that if I want-nl a
piece of ground there he would give m, a
deed of it for nothing. I know of men in
New Jersey who lxmght picturesque plots oi
land, and thought themselves rich, and now
are the slaves of their littlo places, and can
neither give it up nor t content to live upon
it. i'erhaps, on tlie whole, the most con
tented people nlmnt New York live in the
vicinity of Red Bank and Long Branch. I
am told that in tho winter trains down this
wav run full, nnd large trains, too.
The defect with all building enterprises fn
the United States is the exaggerated id -a of
the pi-ople that they are going to Kseome
rich by buying themselves a homo. The ho
tel keciiers expect to make $:;0,0O.i a 3'ear,
when by their talents a.id a mount of interest
they Imstow they ought to lie satisliod with
to,(XK) or $r,(Hin a year.
1 ms una that a man can get rich in ten
j ears is one of the leading causes of hinb
prices iu all things. Tha is why soum hotels
are charging $ "t a day au the rest I. when
the people would be just, as well satisti -.1 with
a l.ws extensive bill of fare, and would (ill

empty, at the old charge prevailing before
