"Should Critics lie Gentlemen?" Mr. Fawcett in tho last number ol Lippcncott asks the qiestion, '"Should crit cs bo gontli-inon?" and m his reply attempts to prove not only that the critic should bo a gentleman, but that, being ngontlcmun, he cannot bo a crit ic. He holds that neither author, pub lisher, nor render reaps any benefit from tliu ubiquitous book reviewer, and thinks tho time will shortly bo when Othello's occupation will bo gone. Hut even while ho rails lie cannot resist the temptation of usurping that gentle man's function and criticising the critic. There is much of merited severitv in Mr. Fawcett' s somewhat illogical ti rade, and while wo cannot agree with him that tho remedy lies in tho total annihilation of tho critic, for that were to annihdate the human race, we give a lervent amen to tho original proposi tion that only gentlemen should bo cr.tics. The Lounger, in the Critic, after ridiculing Miss Cleveland's poem, The Dilemma," at sonio length, says: "1 hope Mr. Fawcett won't read what I have just written. Sucli words about tho work of a lady would go far to con iirm his low opinion of tho irritable and ungentlcmanly race of critics whom he scathes iu tho same magazine in wit ch "The Dilemma" appears. Mr. Fawcct is very amusing when he is angry; now and then ho is amusing even when ho keeps his temper; the only tune you can depend on his not being amusing, is when ho tries to be. Ho takes life very seriously, and noth ing in life so scr ouly as himself, bin verses, and his stories. A review not altogether laudable sets his teeth on edge and sends a cold shiver down his Lack; n really severe notice of his work offends him beyond tho limits of endurance.11 This is tho sort of critic ism against which all persons with the ipstinct of fa r play protest. llitliculo is not argument, nor is it criticism. A crit cisin should bo honoit, and, , there fore, it cannot bo at all times favor able, but surely it need not descend to rudeness aud "injustice. No man or woman who is capable of doing good work should object to sincere though adverse criticism but all robcll when the reviewers pen is wielded only to point a wititcsm, and mangle the tale. Miss Cleveland has suffered much from this so-called criticism. While tho fact that she is a woman and tho sister of the man whom our nation most de lights to honor should not entitlo her to moro generous treatment at our hands, it certainly should not preclude her from fair and courteous treatment. If her work is bad, she lias no right to expect fulsome praise, but she has a fight to expect that the manner of tho adverse criticism shall bo dignified and gentlemanly. A man whose personal ity is h.dd.'u behind a reviewer's mask has no more right to address Miss Cleveland as lloso than he would in a personal interview, and yet the penny-a-liner whoso keenest shaft is tipped with this witticism would never dream of offering this indignity in person. A man may be incapable of writing a poem, an essay, or a story, and yet possess tho abilitv to discover merit, or the lack of merit, in tho work of another, but a boor has no more busi ness in llio columns of a newspaper or magazine than in a drawing-room, and tho time Will cot'iio when such will bo a recognized fact, to the relief of the public and the advantage of tho author. "It takes more relinen'ient of soul to discover beauties than to detect llaws." 'J he Current, hieago. Among (ho Gas-Wells. A group of burning wells north of Washington. 1'n., has presented many grand and beautiful night-scenes. Though several miles apart, thov ap poar at a distance, to bo closo together, and their liht intermingles. On a dark night, with all of them burning, they make a great show. These wells iu full blast with those flanking them on tliu r ght aud on tho loft, with the broad srluro of those at Wo! Is burg, W. Va., showing twenty miles to tho northwest, and with those at Murrays villo, Pa., th'rly miles to tho northeast make a scene wh eh would terrify a stranger, if ho should come upon it un aware of the existence of such things as burning gas-wells. It would only need columns of liiry lava to convince him that the whole region was full of volca noes. And his terror would doubtless bu complete when ho saw a great liery column shoot skvward, unlo.-s ho was made aware of the real cause of tho phenomenon, when lie would remain to admiro what a moment beforo had till ed him witli alarm. The explanation of tho sudden burst of llaino is that it is neeessnn often to "blow out" tho wells and the pipes loading to tho reg ulator, to keep thorn from boing clog ged by the salt which gathers iu tiio pipes from the salt-water thrown up bv tho gas. Tho How of tho gas is stop ped for a moment; ami when again re leased, tho gas drives everything beforo it into the open air. This escaping gas is burned at tho regulator. The effect of the suddenly increased pres sure is to shoot a tongue of Hume, hiss ing ami roaring, nigii up in tlio air. On a misty night, whon tho light is broken up and diffused, tho snow-eovored hills soinotimes adding their reflection, the wholo sky is brilliantly illuminated, and tho scums is grand and beautiful.

Tho prisoner calmly laid down his implements and said: "Governor, I am willing to bo tinned off and discharged if my work don't suit; I novor applied for this job or the the situation, nnd if my work isn't satis factory 1 am willing to quit."

Scnrcely a month passes but what tho pnpers nro called upon to lecord what might be termed tlio luck of sonio Cahfornian in acquiring large sums by means ol small in vestments. It is nn old suying that "noth ing risked nothing gained," and the practi cal application of this lime-honored maxim to every-diiy life is a Hiitllcieut explanation of the so-called "link" of many busi ness men. For several years past tho daily papers havo periodically contained items, detailing the manner in which well known residents of this city and Htato have won prizes iu The Louisiana Stato Lottery. Tiie drawings ot tills ndmlrably maunged institution occur every month, nnd with the same icgulnrity ns tlio rotation of mouths the announcements are made of people wiio have risked a trifle and won largo sums, frequently a fortune. The Inst drawing occurred on December 1-ltlt last, and as usunl a resident of San Fran cisco won a tenth part of the capi. tal prize of $150,000. The fortunate holder of a coupon of ticket No. 03,17-1, which won that prize, was Nat. 51. Raphael, the well-known jowcler, at 7.'i2 Market street in this city. To a re- lorter the gentleman snid: "I havo been myiiig a few coupon tickets every month for the pnst seven or eight years. In tho last drawing I held a coupon which was a tenth of the ticket No. 03,174, and on the day following the drawing when I read in the telegraph columns of tho morning Call that one of tho numbers I held hud drawn the capital prizo I was almost dazed with surprise. I could hardly convince myself that I had at Inst become one ot the fortu nate ones of whom I had so often read. H.owevcr, I finally realized that I was actually entitled to the money, o I imme diately went to the London and San Fran cisco bank and deposited my ticket for col lection. Eleven dnyu later I received the full amount ot $15,000 in gold coin." Another lucky man was Fred. It. Brown, a shoemaker, living on Hitch street. To a reporter he stated thut he hnd very fre quently bought coupous in the Louisiana State Lottery, but had never won a dollar. He had almost given up in despair, when he bought one-tenth ot ticket No. 02,507 which drew one-tenth of the third capital rrite of $20,000. During the holiday week e received the money, and he rejoiced that ho had peraUtod in Jilu efforts until icrc-ss en :n o to him. INJUSTICE CORRECTED. Convincing Verification of Wldecaet l'ulillc Statement. To the rentiers of this paper In com mon .with many publishers nnd editors, we havotieen accustomed tolook upon certain statements which we have seen In our col umns ns merely adroit advertising. Consequently we feel justified In taking the liberty ot printing a tew points from a private letter recently received from one of our largest patron, ns a sort of confession of fiiith to our readers. We quote: "We have convinced ourselves that br telling what we know to bo true, wo havo produced at last a permanent conviction in the public mind. Seven years ago wo stated what tho national disease ot this country was, nnd that it was rapidly increasing. Three years ngo we stated that a marked check had been given it. "The statistics ot one of tho largest life insurance companies ot this country shows that in 1S83 and 1SS-1. the mortality from kidney disorders did not increase over the previous years; other companies stated tho samo thing. It is not presump tions tor us to claim credit tor checking theso ravages. "Seven years ngo we stated that the con dition of the kidneys was tho key to the condition ot health; within the pnst five years all careful life insurance companieo have conceded the truth ot this statement, for, whereas, ten years ngo, chemical analy ris to determiuo tho condition ot the kid neys wns not required, to-day millions ot dollars iu risks are refused, because chem ical examination discovers unsuspected diseases of tho kidneys. "Seven years ago wo stated that tho rav ages of Briglit's Disease- were Insignificant compared with other unsuspected dis orders ot tho kidneys ot many misleading names; that ninety-three per cent, ot human ailments are attributable to de ranged kidneys, which fills the blood with uric acid, or kidney poison, which causes these many fatal diseases. "Tho uric acid, or kidney poison, is tho real causo of tho majority of cases of paral ysis, apoplexy, heart disease, convulsions, pneitmouin, consumption, and insanity; over half the victims ot consumption are first tho victims ot diseased kidneys. "When the recent deatli ot an honored ex-oflicial ot tho United States was an nounced, ids physician said that although he wns suffering from Briglit's Disease, that was not the cnuso ot death. Ho was not frank enough to admit that tho apoploxy which overtook him in his bed, was the fatnl effect of the kidney poison in the blood, which had eaten away tlio substance of tho arteries and brain; nor was Logan's physician honest enough to stato that his fatal rheumatism was caused by kidney acid in tho blood. "If tho doctors would state in oflicial re ports tlio original causa ot death, the poo plo of this country would bo alarmed, yen, nearly panic stricken, at the tearful mor tality from kidnoy disorders." Tho writers of tho nbovo letter give these facts to tho public simply to justify tho claims that they havo made, that "if the kidneys and liver aro kopt in a healthy condition by tho uso of Warner's safo cure, which hundreds of thousands havo proved to bo a specific, when all other remedies failed, nnd that has received the endorse ment of tho highest medical tnlont in I5u rope, Australasia and America, many a lifo would bo prolong ;d and tho happiness of tho peoplo preserved. It is successful with so many different diseases because it, and it nlono, can romovo the uric acid Irom tho blood through tho kidnoys." Our readers are familiar with tho prep aration nnmcd. Commendation thereof has often ap peared in our columns. Wo beliovo it to bo ono of tho bent, if not tho best over manufactured. Wo know tho proprietors aro men of character and in lluonce. Wo nro certain they havo awakened a. wide-spread interest iu tho public mind con cerning tho importance of tho kidneys. We believe with them that they aro tho key to health, and that for their restoration from dlftenso and maintenance iu health, thore u nothing equal to this great remedy. Tho proprietors say thoy "do not glory in this universal provaleuco of disense, but having started out with tho purpose of spreading tho merits of Warner's safe cure before tho world, because it cured our sen ior proprietor, who wns given up by doc tors as incurable, wo feol it our duty to state tho facts and leave the public to IU own inferences. We point to our claims, and to thoir public and universal verifica tion witli pride, nnd if the public does not beliovo what we say, we tell them to ask their friends nnd neighbors what they think about our preparations." As stated above, wo most cordially com mend the perusal ot this correspondence by our readers, believing that in so doing, we aro fulfilling a simple public obligation.
