To apply the caliper of moral measure
ment to this child of genius seems labor
lost. There must nave been In him a
chameleon-like temperament, by which
he assimilated to those with whom he
associated, and thus each analyzer of
i-o e gives us a glimpse or His own Idio
syncrasies rather than a revelation of
this unique, wonderful creation.
I prefer to regard these persons of rare,
exceptional genius as demonized In a
high malignant sense, When Luther
stood before the august Diet convened at
Worms, his memorable saying, "Here
stand I, I can not be otherwise," was a
conscious illustration of this. He,
Luther, courageous, penetrating, dis
cerning, could be only Luther, Just as
the cells of bis brain and the leadiugs
of conscience had brought him down
from the ages. A strong will may
aohleve mucb; but tbe bias nature can
not wholly be contravened.
I like tbe Bible method of biography,
tbat gives us the factsof a llfeand leaves
the moral status to be adjusted by the
reader. There we have Sarah forcing
Hagar and Ishmael out In the wilder
ness; Rebecca inciting her son Jacob to
deceive her husband and wrong her less
favored child; Rachel and Lear, with
their domestic quarrels; and all dowu
the history of the favored people, hein
ous crimes committed, scarcely without
reprehension; the design being to give
us theexperieuceof Individual life, good
and bad, praiseworthy or blameworthy,
with surprising candor, as if facts were
tbe only important things in delineating
a life. Buta careful observerwill detect
an enlarging silver thread of approval
lur the true excellence pervading all the
pages of Jewish hUlory; as in the wise
courtesy of Abigail, am: the steadfast
ness of the mother of tbe Maccabees. I
think we must learn to accept genius as
it Is, and not pester It with too critical
an eye, leaving the "stern daughter of
the voice of God," Duty, to look after
Uer wise children and approve them
in her own time aud way. Our judg
ments of genius, in any sense, seem an
impatience. Who are we, that we dare
condemn ? we, who have uot the spear
of Itburial, to test the right of a beiuc
to be just what he is. and nothing else;
to be what he is, and powerless to be
otherwise part and parcel of a lurid
phautasmagoria, over which steal weird
fchadows, half human, half ilevillsh
half divine, it may be.
We may hold the breath, feeling as If
somo hidden arcana were about to open
before us tbe breaking of tbe last magic
seal once held by old King Solomon, by
wblch the demons of Eblis are about to
break from their bondage; but it is be
coming lu us to look on, aud hold our
peace.
In 1S55, New York was alive with ex
citement over one of these wondrous
demonized crealipns. The windows In
llroudwny were full of a tall, statuesque
figure, about whom the classic robe fell
In long, heavy fold, aud upon whose
arms guttered the lortn or a serpent,
I was never tired of studying this
bphinx; the small, compact, beautiful
head, tbat somehow made mine ache;
the strange eyes under the contracted
brow; the brow contracted by no ordi
nary emotion, hat from a terrible Intens
ity. It seemed as If a fiery band eu

and she was before us. How she cami
there seemed a mystery, a lofty, mae
nlflcent statue, draped, motionless, aud
causing the heart to stay its beat; and
tbe vast multitude could no more have
applauded tbe instant of her appearing
than if an unearthly spirit bad suddenly
become visible to the eyo; but the ap
plause that followed was something to
be remembered.
Her voice was indescribable a mar
velous voice, deep, clear, distinct. Tbe
tragic tones of her voice were a eoul-
harrowlnc wall; her low eob went
tbrougti and through the heart as the
eobs of a snflering child affect us. Her
Infantile tears real tears were echoed
by a fload of tears from our own eyes.
In one point of view Rscliel ftllected
us as no other human being ever did.
Her most careless elance, movement,
tone, sigh or tear, were each and all per
fect in kind. You would not change it;
you would not criticise it, but yield to
it as to some overmastering fascination.
She' was'riofgay; neither was she Bad or
sentimental, blie was an arusi, wmi
out Hie tenderness allied to tirt. She
was a feminine King David, without

morse of the ewett psalmUt of Israel

A Story with a Moral.
Lillle Devereaux Blake prints the fnl
lowing brief story with "a morn!:"
Once there were Mme cunuiur; spar
rows who Hired a number or cock roliiii!
uud jenny wrens to take cireol their
grape vine, proiuip'uK to ny them In
ooru. But v lieu the lli jc came fur the
wages to lie giv'en, tbey gave to eacii
cook robin twice as much, or one-third
as mucn again as they did to tiie leuuv
wrens. Xow when the wrens saw this
they remonstrated and said, "Meane,
Mr. Sparrow, why do you pay us lea
than our brothers? We have worked
as many hours as thev have, and as
faithfully as they, and are as hungry as
mey are, so wiiy should we uot have as
ranch corn ?"
But, the sparrows said, in a superior
manner, "You have no red feathers,
and therefore we shall uot pay you as
much. Besides the corn is all ours, and
you ought to be thankful that we pay
you auy of it."
Then the Jenny wrens went sadly
away and thought what n grand thing
it was to have red feathers, aud how
huncry they were.

When a sudden death occurs, the
physicians state that "heart disease" Is
the cause. Aye, perhaps It Is; but if
tbey could have examined tbe heart
beforehand, aud seen the disappointed
hopes, loss of friends, worriment of
mind, crushed ambition, aud the many
weary struggles for tbe maintenance of
life and borne, they would render the
verdict, "Died of a broken heart."

A new epic, from a vigorous and skillful pen, on a nbjeat which

siepBed Into his place, and departed Mrs. Durdway baa lound theme m this story with
which her heart beats in warmest sympathy, and her lines How on in the Httaoth cadence in
dicative of the fullest accord. She plctnre the gentle, lender, trustful Anna and the wily, cov
etous Pelatlab In vivid colors; and Low years of poverty and longing, and tn cries of the'hnr,
gry boys, compelled poor Anna to yield to relatwh Import nnlty,
"Rise, rejoice.
My poor, nnmated dore," said he,
And look henceforth for love to me."
A llttte farther on be nays :
" Become my wis and you shall be
Mode happy through prosperity," k , .
While, If she persists in declining hi advances, wolf lllrr. hr lhmlin to heado liei to Ui

ABrm's second wifehood, and la sad going back to Algt ria, are all told ao pathetically that our
feelings are deeply enlisted. No one, with any true sentiment, can read tbe poem wttbont be
ing thoroughly stirred. The Illustrations are in admirable keeping with tte psssssgjwtDey are
dealgnerl to portray, and a fine engraving of the author is a fitting frontispiece. The subject
spirit, lire and passion of the poem should a, ve It an extensive reading, aside from the Interest
which the literary reputation 01 the author must awaken In it. A a specimen of book-making

With the New Year come new styles and inven
tions. Prominent among these ranks our new !$tcn
Winding Watch, named -"Old i7l" Although here
tofcee we have always handled thm best watch of
ee9i bind that it was possible to get. yet it has been
impossible to get a low-priced watch, with the stro
wiadiDg attachment, that could be relied upon for
tnte, and have a finished appearence. This seems to
have been accomplished by the inventor of "Old
1478." We need only refer you to the cut given ta
coaaectioo with this, which is an ecact imitation of
it, and say that it is perfect in every way. The
works are covered with a heavy plate glass cap, then
this is covered with a hunting case. The front or
face is a plate glass cap or crystal H of an inch thick.
set in a heavy nm one-half an inch in width, "airf
it almost impossible to injure the watch.
It is fitted epccially for Railroad, ttarm and shop
uses, v here dust and dirt are liable to get in on open
ing. As the cases fit very closely, and being a
stem-wir.der and open dial, tt need never be opened.
If you need a watch, try this. It is entirely new aal
novel. You can rely on it for tuae. You will be
the only one in your neighborhood having such a
watch Tt looks exactly like gold and will save its
cot in a few years, by saving what yo woM havo
to pay for repairs on an ordinary watch.
Remember tho price Is only SS.00
by Cxpress. or SS.50 by Mail Regis
