whether parsimony is always the best

Tho Legislature of Kansas, at Its
session hist winter, decided to submit
to the Yo'ters of the State an amend
ment to the constitution for their
adoption or rejection at tho November
election: The proposed amendment
provides that the number of Represen
tatives shall never exceed 123, and the
number of Senators shall never exceed
40. As the constitution now stands
the number of Representatives cannot
exceed 100, and the number of Senators
cannot exceed 33. The cities now have
a majority of the members of the
Legislature, and the amendment is pro
posed in order to equalize the represen
tation so as to give tho country dis
tricts their fair share.

witb'jshnV'liat in one Kand"and a

a decollete cancan, and is called Im
modesty; Spain is a wild Petroleuse,

The Grand K:ipwi7 Eajle, in a dis
cussion of the pernicious power of
Washington lobbies, says: It is to be
hoped that the members of Congress
havo learned a lesson from the events
of the past Seven months which they
will generally lifeed at the approaching
session. If the action of the people in
all the Republican conventions yet
held, and also in various other assem
blies, is significant of any due o'r two
things of more prominence thaii ethers
it is established that they want the
salary business reformed, and also that
Congress shall keep itself thoroughly
purged of all disposition to encourage
corporations,"" and the schemes
would-be Treasury plunderers."

The approaching close of another
year brings with it occasion for re
newed thanksgiving and acknowledg
ment to the Almighty liuler of the
Universe for the mercies He has be
stowed upm us. Abundant harvests
have been among tho rewards of in
dustry; with local exceptions health
has been among many blessings enjoy
ed; tranquility at home and peace with
other nations have prevailed; frugality
and industry are gaining their merited
position and reward under the .provi
didenre of God, surely, as we trust, and
the nation is recovering from the ling
ering results of the dreadful strife.
Por these and all other mercies vouch
safed, it becomes us a people, to return
heartfelt and grateful acknowledge
ments, and with our thanksgiving for
the blessings, we may unite -prayers
for the cessation of local and tempora
y sufferings. I therefore recommend
that on
TUCKSDAT, THE 27, DAT OF NOVEMBER
the people meet in their respective
places of worship to make their ac
knowledgments to the Almighty God
for his bounties and his protection,
and offer to him prayers for their con
tinuance. In witnesi whereof I have, hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed. Done
at the City of Washington, this 14th
day of October, in the year of our
Lord 1873, and of the Independence

"One Week an Editor" is a capital
story by Mrs. Rebecca Harding Davis.
It is free from the melodramatic ele
ment which is characteristic of her
work, and is by far the best story we
have seen from her pen.
Mr. Junius Henri Browne is still
pursuing his favorite study of the in
scrutable and unfathomable nature of
woman. His treatise on "Women as
Tacticians" is elaborate and full of
thought. All of Mr. Brown's woman
isl:v.lies give evidence of long and
searching conversations with Mrs.
Browne and -Mrs. Grundy.
The gem of the number is a short
English story ent itled "Miss Gurney."
It is written with a.pathos and delicacy
of touch which no American story
writer is capable of. Why do the Eng
lish so far excel othwr nations in story
telling? The article on Lincoln and Seward
has a special historical value in view"
of tho fact that it is from the pen of
the Hon. Gideon Welles.
The departments of Literature, Sci
ence, and Miscellany are all uncom

AI.EXAMMLii: "1U3IAS"PERE.
Alexandre Dumas the whole novel
reading world knew literally by heart,
lie wad tho son of a mulatto general of
extraordinary powers and courage, to
whom Xapoleon, on account of his
single-handed defense of a bridge
against the enemy in the battle of
lJrixen, gave the name of the Keratitis
Coclus of Tyrol. Dumas, though the
sou of a Caucasian woman, was darker
than his lighting father, and had many
more marks of the mulatto; To his
admixture of African blood he owed
his -rivid imagination, his extreme
prodigality, his love of display, and his
mekv-dramatic instincts.
Ilia capacity for composition and
tireless vrork was altogether abmormal.
lie wrote faster than a rapid ienman
could copy, his average daily task be
irg thirty-'fl ve page3 of a French octaro
volume, ytories have !een circulated
c"f his haveinghad in Paris a species of
mental trfachine shop, in which clever
men wrote, at his suggestion, an 1 under j
his supervision, dramas, travels, novels,
histories, brochures, sketches, ttttd me
mories by the dozen, turning them out
almost as rapidly as shoes are turned
out at Lvnn or print, cloth at Fall
j River, Such stones were exaggera"
j tions"; tut not without a substantial
basis of fact. Invention and industry
like his had never been known in
France or any other land. He was a
miracle of performance, tho Samson of
scribes, lie did not labor fio much
from literary ambition as for money, of
which he was eternally in need. The
more he earned (he is said to have
bceu iri receipt during the height of
I his popularity of $30,000, 840,000, and
even $50,000 a year) tho more he want
ed, for his expenditure was unlimited,
and his tastes were as extravagant as
they were capricious. His purse was
open at be'th ends, yawning to be tilled
at one arid running empty at the otber.
Gold burned in his pocket, and he hated
to be hot. Always earning, constantly
working, forever borrowing, ceaseless
ly lendiilg, eternally in debt, was his
normal and unvarying condition. Pru
dence, economy, provision for the fu
ture, were entirely alien to his sangu
ine and lavish nature. Ho did not
have all he wanted, but he wanted all
he did not have. Concern for the mor
row was not likely to oppress a man
who required nothing except pen, ink,
and a few reams of paper for the cre
ation of a princely income. His life
was as romantic as the career of his
heroes, and his resources were as won
derful. He was at once the autocrat
of composition and tiie padishali of
plagiarists. No human being ever car
ried to greater length the assumption
of genius claiming its own. All print
ed matter he held to be his for what
ever use he ehese to make of it; and
he impoverished tho past and
made
opulent the present.
ITulhas sought to pufc in practice the
things ho dreamed of. Ever full of j
project?, enterprises, expeditions, with i
all his pondigious work, he was obliged !
to auanuon more man lie aecympin
ed. In his forty-fourth year he began
to build near St. Germain a fantastic !
and costly villa it was called the
Chateau of Monte Cristo but the re
volution of 1S48 and the expulsion of
Louis Philippe intcrferred with his
plans and restricted his revenues, com
pelling the sale, some j'ears later, of
his country-seat at less than one-tenth
of the original outlay. Though always
fond of women, as his father was be
fore him, he did not legally marry
until he was nearly fortx,.jhi3 .wife be
.,--tinrlm2rr and engaging
actress of the Porto St. Mar.tin, with
whom he had long been in love.
Among his ether follies he published
a daily newspaper, The Liberty; but
this wa3 too much for him, and he re
tired worsted from the financial en
gagement. Then he essayed a review,
named The Month, from the time of its
issue, and failed in tbia too. Subse
quently he published The Guardsman
revived years after undpj.te 'title" of
''ZaZ'lttl-txto, in wfcich he printed Lis
translations, sketches, and romances as
they fell hot from his buy brain. The
Thfee Gi'tardxmen and his two sequels
Ticcniy Tears After and Viscount of
Bragelone Jfaryartt of Anjou, 2Itm
oirsofa FhysMan, Quetn-Naryot, and
Monts Cristo, especially the last, are
the most popular of all his works,
having been translated into no less
than twelve languages. The extent of
hi3 productions cannot be ascertained ;
but it isestimated that, including
translations and adaptations, he must
have been tho author of nearljf a thous
and volumes far moro than the com-
r Scott, four
of the most prolific writers of modern
or mediaeval times.
The chief of romancers has not long
been dead. lie was to the last ttte
same pleasant, careless, vain, egotistic,
wonderful wizard of the pen that he
had been for forty years. Every body
knew him in Paris. A thousand eyes
followed him when he walked along
the Boulevards or drove in the liois.
lie fairly beamed with good nature;
his stout, full figure shaking with a
sort of unctuous satisfaction, and his
bright eyes laughing and shedding a
glow over his yellow complexion, and
kindling his large sensual features
from his round heavy chin to the roots
of his woolly and bushy hair. Junius
