Oue of our modern poets takea different
grounds and doclares,
"There is more force in names
Than most men dream of; and a lie may keep
Its throne a whole age longer, if it tfkulk

No man of fame will say there is nothing in a
name. An interesting illustration of the
money -value of a name may ho eeon in tho
mirra'tives of tho amount of the payments
whicji tho poet Ixingfellow received for eorue

long tinw; for a certain newspaper, was finally
invited by the editor to take an ice by way of

Ynnth's O-ininanion.
Mr. K night, an American scholar who lived
in Paris d u ing most t.f hia life, need to tell a
nlory illustrative of tho way in which tho En.
ropeaa workman was reduced to a Suman ma
chine.
During the international exhibition he was
seated under a canopy oa tho grounds listening
to some music. It had been raining-all day,
and tho ground was soaking with water. A
man went stolidly up Jand down the area in
front, with a wateriuz-cau sprinkling the
grass.
-Mon ami," said Mr. Knight, fcdo yoa not see
that it is raining?"
"I am employed to wet this grass," said the
man. "and I shall wet it. rain or no rain, until
I am told to tdop."'
Another American was not long since watch
ing the workmon employed ia tho alteration of
Eaton hall, near Chester, on the estate or the
marquis o? Westminster, and listening to the
tato:nJa4nf mi English companion that 5oC
men had been at work on it for several years.
I should think thy might go on to the end ol
time, if they work as they are working now,"
said the shrewd visitor. "Hore aro fifty stout
fellows, for instance, each with a wheelbarrow
removing this heap of stone two hundred
vanls. It will take them a vear. A temporary
radf.-av, cars and engine, derrick and pulleys,
would cost a comparative trine, and do the
work in tlirfie ilavs."
"And for tho rest of the year your fifty stoul
fellows would starve?" suggested tho Eng-
lisnniin. -Yon do not consider how over
led w are. and that is tho duty of tht
class possessed of vast fortunes to make work
for the class who have none."
These two anecdotes throw a gleam of light
on the different social condition of the Enro-rve.i-i
nml American workinsruan. Any one on
reflection will understand the totally different
ur.ii-ii ui-n wlii. h a man must uo through nil
d i . 's 1 ib.r wuea ho knows that the work and

and in tloveloniuii a great country and a new

rails Letter in Chicago News.
Two or three nights Lack, while in tba mag
nificent dining-room of the Grand hotel, enjoy
ing, as were seven or eight hundrod ether per
eous, a very excellent dinner, I was suddenly
surprised by JL Desgranges and his orchestra
triking up "The Star Hpanglod Banner." It
is seldom that Desgranges venturos to indulge
ia national airs, or anything of that kind.
Once a year the guests of the Orand hotel who
take table d bote dinners, will he.r, now the
national anthem of Russia, now that of Italy,
Uuw that of England, and so on around tho
world. On tho 1th of July the chief d'orchea-
tre also presents Home American tunes, hut we
aro not used to them, and hence I was rather
startled the other night when ho gave us "Tha
Star Spangled Banner," I picked up my menu,
but there wai no such number on tho musical
programme, and while 1 was thinking about it
the band struck up "Yankee Doodle." I beck
oned to the maiire d'hoteL "Why is this
thus?" I asked Monsieur Carry smiled and
exr lainod, and the point of his whispered com
munication was that Mr. Kufus Hatch and
family were at another table; that Mr. Rnfus
Hatch had 10 quested that the orchestra shoul 1
play something which would remind a patii-
otic American citizen of his native laud; that
this message had bean carried to Mons.
Knccht, the worthy maiager of the hot .l, and
now the request of tho distinguished guest
was complied with.
"Code Rufus,".in my hotel; woll, here wae
a chance for an interview. On general princi
ples it is safe for enterprising journalists to
indulge in aa interview whenover the oppor
tunity presents itsolf. It is absolutely impera
tive on him when he meets a man like liufui
Hatch, for no conversation is mora interesting
than that of the famous "cattleman" of Broad
etreet. Dinner over, I wont for Uncle Kufus,
and as be was about going to the opera with
Lis family Rearranged a rendezvous for fa a
morrow
Accordingly, tho next day, in answer to my
inquiry whether ho was in Paris oa butuncn
or pleasure, Mr. Hatch said: "I am trying to
combine both, and I think I have so far mot
wh pretty good success. If it holds out this
way I shall go back to Now York healthiar,
wealthier and of course happier. I was in
London thrco weeks, and I have been in Paris
almost a fortnight I havo formed decilil
opinions on some things, even if I am not oue
of the oldest inhabitants. I don't sp eak ranch
Fieneh, and I know tho names of none of tha
streets. I could not read them or spell ILein
if I did happea to remeaiber them; but 1 get
along nicely with two phrases 'poor boy'
f pour boire) and the name of my hotel. Wlien
1 get lost l tel. a can driver tn'j name ut in j
hotel, and when 1 want auyl.iag done 1 sty
poor boy. Those two words n.ways make thj
fellows tiy around They appear to me to be
liiii'-'immuiiiy interested in my we.iare vi uen i
np-2ak o tlijin 1 could make My way oil over
1 f iii-:9 with these two r ieu r.i worns an i me
money t. back thorn up." Mr. Hatch spoka
Unns last few words thousht-'u ly, reilotive'.y.
and hu appeared to b'i maki ,g a uieutal calcula
tion as co the prob .ioie i . .at of money that
it would take "to ba -k :li m up."
I asked L'nde Ku'ns ;f h : had seen anything
of ih j country. H rre.died that he had seen
mow of Frau:3and Kv.-Ua I than most Fr'. u jh
meii had of the I n; d St.it. s. "Glads one,
Jules Ferry, and thjir poopio," he continued,
"don't visit Anu-ri.-a; aud only know what wo
are from bojKs and newspapers. AH the read
ing matter on earth would i.ot give me as prac
tical an idea of what these countries are as
have tho two visits which I have made within
the past twelve months. I see here France
with her 37,000,000 people and 204,000 squaro
miles of territory. Her acres are too small, or
else she baa got too many inhabitants to the
square mile. Great Britain and Ireland have
about thirty-four millions of people to 116,000
square miles of country; there is not land
enough for the people. The soil won't sup
port tbein. It has beea worked anyway for a
thousand years, and is worked out, is impov
erished. If it was manured, fertilized, stimu
lated as no other roil on earth is, it would
hardly eupport .the earth worms that squirm
about in it. Whatever virgin soil there is in
either country is to be foaud only in the vast
hunting estate? which are owned by royal and
noble proprietors At the present rate of in
crease France doubles her population once in
two hundred years; all England in one hundred
ears: the city of Ixindon in fifty years. The
Jnited States is now doubling its population
every thirty years. I tell you, sir, there is
something wrong over here about the whole
organization of government and society as
weil It is wrong from tho bottom up. It is
all vcrv petty to look at. and it reminds me of
the remark of the little boy that had bean gath
ering pond lilies. A passer-by said:
" 'Thosjs are pro'ty tiowers, Tommy.'
'Ye,' answered the boy, 'they be pooty,
mister, but they ain't go d for mvuh. They
wilt s.i quick less you 'tend 'em all ine time.'
"Paris is beautiful to look at Tho houses
are eUgaut, uniform in architecture, bnt well,
every oue of them seems to have been built to
servo as a fort or baiaicade as much aa for a
residence. The front drs are like heavy
armored gates, and all tho ground floor windows
have cross-bars or iron shutters. The statues
on all the public monuments are figures of war
or victory. The ornaments are cannon, guns,
vwords, shot shell, aud battle flags. I see no
figures representing peace or plenty, aur-
ounded with wheat olie.ives, horns of abund
ance, or plow-shares. The great public build
ings are palaces and barracks, and every tenth
inau is serving as a soldier with a bayonet or
sword in bis hand, while most of the others are
worn-out veterans of past wars, decorated
with medals for the slaughterings they have
survived. Thia is what 1 see in the cities. Aa
I pass through the rural districts I see the land
dotted with hovela surrounding chateaux.
Every square inch of soil being coaxed to give
it some little mite of product The trees are
shorn of their very twigs for f neL Worat of
all, I see women in crowds toiling ia every
field with hoe and spade, and in every wood
and thicket with ax and billet-hook, working to
keep the men iu uniform for war. tiuch a
state of affairs may have lasted for centuries,
but it is steadily growing worse, and can't last
always. The people are tearing, and
knowledge will make them restless,
and, at last, resolved. They will hear,
thev are hearing,, of Texas with with its 274,
000"square miles, and of Dakota with its 152 LOoO
square miles of virgin land. Combine Mon

wheat than Great Britain and France put to

production It costs more to manure an acre
cf land here than an acre of magnificent land

tte magnificent acres which may be c-ed
by mil'.isns : 'You tickle them with a

Oh, give mo mothers; yea, great glad mothers.
Proud mothers of dooms. In deed, twice ton;
Fond mothers of mothers and mothers of men.

When grand Greeks lived like gods, and when
Brave mother of man, strong breasted and
broad,
Did exult in fulfilling the purpose of God.
Yea,

mothers.
Who peopled strong, lusty, lovod Germany
Till aiie pushed the Frank from

Yci. give me mothers that
love and none
ethers;
Elesred, beautiful mothers of men for mo.
For they, they do love in the brave old way,
And for this all honor for aye and a day.
But mothers of fashion! Oh, white, cursad
mothers!
Yes, cursed as the Christ cursed the barren fig
tree,
With your one sickly branch where a dozen
should be;
Ye are cypriatia of folly to Satan's own brothers,
Withered and barren and piteous to son.
Ye are dried-up peppers in a dried-op pod
Ye are lMAd of men and abhored of cod.
Stronger than steel
Ia the sword of the Spirit;
Swifter than arrows
The light of the truth is;
Greater than anger
Is love, that subdueth!

Some people often wish that they were dead,
and if this involved their living by-and-by in
stead of now, how many will wish it, on read
ing the prophecy of the Bev. Mr. Fincke, au
English clergyman who traveled much ia
America ten j . ars ago. Ho cow venturos to
tell what he thinks ia to bo the future of "Eu3
lishry," by which he means the English speak
ing peoples 0'i the globe a century hence. He
calculates by that time there will be one thou
sand millions of them living nuder the same
institutions and cherishing tho samo ideas,
social and political, in the United States, Can
ada, Australia, South Africa, and Great Britain.
The 800,000,000 which he assigns to the United
States will overflow into Canada, into Mexico,
Guatemala, Colombia. Bolivia, and Peru, af
terward into the valley of the Amazon, along
the whole range of the Andes, into the islands
of the Pacific, acres whieh they will join hands
with their kindred in New Zealand and Aus
tralia. The English settlements in South Af
rica, now essentially American, will spread over
southern Africa, pushing the natives to the
equator. The American farmer is to furnish
the type of this new society. There will be no
savages or serfs, , few drones or men
of luxury; all be able to read
and write and to use their acquirements. They
will have homes of their own, and property
enough of the very best and most educative
kind that is in land to yield to their intelli
gent industry sufficient means of support
They will have no social or political superiors,
and will manage their own affair. Thero will
be few or none looking forward to a pauper's
fate. The live, of the majority will be spent
in the cultivation of their own land on tlte
same terms which the American farmer now
cultivates hia. ilAjv
Morality wililz. ftiia society have a tremen
dous force, because there will be only one mor
ality for all, and not as now a separate moral
ity for each class, it will be supported by the
opinion of alL Women will play a larger part
in the work of society than they have ever
done. No pursuits will be favored by endow
ments or bonnties. The competition between
nations will be intellectual, not military com
petition. Oratory, painting, sculpture and
architecture will grow nuder it as never be
fore. Money will be iu greater use and the
firecious metsls have a higher value than ever,
leligion will havo as strong a hold as ever on
the human heart At tbe head of this mighty
community the United States will stand moral
ly though" not politically. The president of
the United States will he its foremost man,
and "ihe predominate power" will bo the
press.
Court Hay In a Tennessee Town.
M. Quad in Detroit Free Press.
The circuit court opened as I arrived here,
although there was no special occasion for it
as far as my offense was concerned. "Court
day" in a southern town is a sort of Christmas
and Fourth of July rolled into one. The turkey
is left out, but the whisky is retained.
It looked odd enough to see the clerk of the
court smoking a pipe as be jotted down bis
notes, but I forgot him as I saw that three of
the jurors, two of the lawyers and a witness
where each puffing a cigar, and a prisoner on
trial for burglarly hopefully looking for some
one to offer him one. Some of the spectators
felt it their bounden duty to remove their hats
while others had no feeling in tho case. The
only man I saw in the court-room who didn't
chew tobacco and try to spit six feet wm a
lame man from Stewart county, who excused
himself on the ground of dyspepsia and
wanted to know if I could lend him a drink of
whisky.
But'the big scene was on the outside. Two
hundred farmers had come in on horseback or
by team to size up the racket They argued
polities and got mad. They discussed religion
and dared each other to knock a chip off his
6houlder. They "swapped" horses and mules
and threw in broken heads to make it a bar
gain. The "celebrated Indian doctor" was on
hand with his liver cure and took in money as
fastaa he could pass out the bottles. The min
strel show was on hand for an evening perform
ance, the man with the running mule won
thiee races, and those who could Davigate
when night came were looked upon as "pizen
mean" if the did not offer a hand to those who
could not.

Several years ago a broker in Chicago took
into his employ as cook, a sharp-witted female
who kept her ears open for "points," and in
vested all her money in stocks. A year ago tha
broker's wife died, but the cook still remained.
A few days ago an unlucky speculation chopped

tent for the ccok and said :
"Maria. I must move into a smaller and
cheaper house, and I can no longer afford to

'Did you sell ahort?" she asked.

"And got squeezed?"
"Yes."
