WHY POETRY IS PLENTIFUL. Vlewa or on Ensllsli Critic on Amrrlc.Ys Minor Hard. With "Transatlantic Bardlets" rts his hcailliuc, a writer iu tho London Satur day Reviow prefaces somo rat hex savage criticism of several books of verso recent ly published in America -with, tho fol lowing lively roaisrlas: They aro imcoinmonlyliko tho Eng lish poetlings. thwo transatlantic Bard lets, but theror.ro more of them. This is not because tho Stated aro less poetical than tho mother country, but because, thoy liavo more people. Moreover, "cul ture." is generally held in higher est com there, and to appear iu print is an un doubted marl: of having obtaiuod it, just as a university degree is a proof, among tho English middle classes, of it3 proud possessor's right to bo regarded as a scholar and a gentleman. But if tho authorship of a book is a certificate of tasro and reading it be comes a diploma in honors when that . . . . , . . - book consists ot metrical matter. u , about 75TKT cent of moderately educat ed persons can write lines which some times scan, often rhynio and occasional ly mate sense, and a painfully Large pro portion of these are impelled to establish their characters in tho .eyes of their neighbors bv the publication of thefO so called verses. A little money or tho rower of deluding a publisher's reader, a simple tribe, is all that is needed. It must be added that at tune iho" poems are a genuine trade success, as arc in England, fcr intauce. tie innocent maunderings of Sir Edwin Arnold and Mr. Lewis AI orris, a fact which eneour- aces scores, nav, hundreds, ot other am bitious and avaricious rhymesters to emulate the luciy meu. In the States, toe. they have their dear little cliques of marnal admirers, liko our fair brotherhood of the Rhymers' club and the Bodley Head, who gener ously praise one another's svaigs which they read (or neglect to read) in presen tation copiee and they thus maintain ono another's spirit ou a little butter. And then, of course, there are always ono's aunts and sisters and wives and that son of thing There are more of theso in the United States than liero; hence there is more minor poetry.

H Y0V3 How a Manufacturer Ikoj;utT Did Not CKomt Mr Lady. Some y r- ." - " T was acting as curate in a large London ycrtslt. Twj yixmg people ia v.h. m I was greatly intertteu vrere to bo married on a certain Wednes day iu April Ccntrary to custom, tho bride arrived before the briuegrvx-.m indeed the bridegroom never arrived at alL It subsequently transpired that tho bridegroom had uLappesred the previews evening and was nowhew to be found He has not bt-ea found to this day. 2ic csasc for his disappearance was ever a signed, nor has any clew to his where abouts ever been discovered. The poor yomig bride rscccmbed to the stock, and it was my melancholy duty to offi ciate at her burial seme weeks later. One more case, sad I Have dune. A curate, ia receipt cf little more than 1C0 a year, proposed to the daughter oi a wealthy north country manufacturer and was accepted. Paterfamilias was ex tremely ansry at this and forbade the young "feUow his house. Candor compels mo to state that the daughter offered very little resistance to Iter father's ob jections, and the curate, who was genu inely fend of the girl, removed to a dis tant parish. Two months after this event hv fell into a baronetcy and rather m re than 3,000 a year. The manufacturer saw that he had made a mistake and opened up negotiatioas in a letter. By return he received a telegram with the laconic infcrmatiou, '"Too late." We may lie certain that the good mjuiufacturer's wife gave him a large "piece of her mind," as the saying goes. London ATTsmrv lie Didn't To.t tlip Letter. Without asserting ia so many words thai "the woman who ceaselessly com plains and scolds, and generally makes a nuisance of herself to every one who is cursed by being brought into contact with her," represents a large proportion of her sex, our essayist, Dr. Cyrus Edi son, so far succeeds in impressing the reader's mind to this effect as to throw him upon tho defensive, if he be a man, by quickening his apprehensions of per sonal peril. Variations of the temper thermometer he has passed over as com in on to all classes awl conditious of women may be the incipient stages of the "cursed shrewishness' that drives men to madness and murders love, and sometimes, ia scorpion fashion, stings the shrew herself to deatlt. Nagging grows by what it feeds upon. What a tolerant, because ignorant, hus band may be ready to excuse as pacing petulancemaybeaccckatricccpg. "Con tinual streams of fcolding, lasting tltree or four hours" may await him in tho future unless heroic measures are adopt ed without delay. He will not bo h ready to "ties and make up" the next time he is chidden for carrying an im portant letter in his pocket for r. week after it was given to him to iost. ilarion Harland in North American Review.
