The livlne English critics of the higher order, rrlth but one or two ex ceptions, have a tender affection for Charles Dickens, and have cordial praise for his unique genius and de lightful productions. We are glad of this, and we hope for the delectation of the present and the next generation that admiration and love of the splen did creations of this great novelist may abide with the children of men. In his time he was indeed a consummate master. From 1837 to the full flower of Thackeray's great powers Dickens was "the greatest writer of that time, and has never been equalled since by an7 English author, save only Thackeray himself. If any man ever knew "the nation of London," as DeQuincey called that great city a half century ago, it jwas Dicken3. He knew but little of royalty and nobility, but his knowledge of the people was immense and accur ate. He had indeed "inexhaustible knowledge of all the mysteries of Lon don life, particularly in the lower class." That was not all. The same writer who was a gifted contemporary of Dickens, wrote of him in 1849, that he possessed "that rare and infallible evi dence of geniu3 the power of extract ing novelty and interest from the or dinary and common details of society, from things which we are so familiar with that we cannot conceive how they can contain materials either for laugh ter or tears." That was true of Dick ens when he wrote his earliest sketches. "The Marinestore Shop," "Seven Dials,' etc., his immortal "Pickwick," "Oliver Twist." and others. "Pickwick" made him a great name at once and was im mensely popular for those times about 1S39. He made early a prodigious irq pression only second to that made by the greatest of novelists, Walter Scott. "Pickwick" is desultory, irregular, with out plan or plot. But is original, hu morous. beyond rivalry since and quite picturesque. His fertility, creativeness was stupendous. We care less for "Oli ver Twist" than for any of his novels, and yet it 13 clever workmanship, with characters that will live in literature for a long time Fagin, the Artful Dod ger, Sykes. His next work was "Mas ter Humphrey s Clock," a failure some what. Then came in succession "The Old Curiosity Shop," and "Barnaby -Rudge," still full of human interest and pathos as well as of originality and power. The first is indeed very striking in its originality and vigor, and the portraits are drawn with the cunning hand of art backed by creative power. We overlooked "Nicholas Nickleby" that followed "Pickwick." It is very clearly planned and written with much care and in his best manner. It is read stil with undiminished interest. Its people survive, and it will be long we mus think before Nicholas himself ana Squeers and Vincent Crummies and Ralph Nickleby and Arthur Gride, al natural, life-like creations, shall step behind the scenes and never again ap pear on the stage of fiction. "Martin Chuzzlewit" is generally regarded as one of his best books. Pecksniff, and Tom Pinch and Jonas Chuzzlewit wil remain among the best creations in the realm of fiction. There are remorse brutality, iun and other good things in this important novel. His many Christ mas tales survive, the delight of many a household. "The Chimes." "A Christ mas Carol" and "The Cricket on the Hearth" will be read with pleasure and profit whan nearly all of the Active lit erature of the last decade is buried and forgotten. Dickens had high con eptions of honor and mercy and duty and "his view of life is generous, ele vatir.g. genial." He had noble impulses and intense sympathy for the distress ed, tlie injured, the abused, the suffer ing. He was indeed overflowing with "the milk of human kindness." "He sj-mpathizes with what is good and noble in all c?asses and conditions alike; he makes us love the exercise of the humbler and more modest virtues; he chronicles tne minor accidents and impressions of life; his writings, though describing the poorest and lowest class es of mankind, contain nothing which can shock the most fastidious taste He is an author of whom Ens land may be proud." That was writ ten by one of his gifted countrymen more than a half century since. It was true then and remains true. We can not now. for i-c.nt of space, glance at his many other novels, some of which are among the most precious inherit ances of the English race from nine teenth century chief authorship. Raleigh." Post: Will Palmer, colored, waa verv seriously if not fatally cut yesterday afternoon by Charles Burch also colored. The difficulty occurred on Cabarrus street near the old depot, .about 2.20 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The wound Is just under Palmer's heart V "Baantie lha Kind Yea Haw Wwajs BoS 2 si PRE A CHEES AN D TRANSLATIONS. Rev. Dr. Buckley, editor oZ tn New York Methodist. Is certainly one of the greatest men in the northern, church with Its 3,000,000 communicants. The Messenger referred to him once as their "greatest man." We notice that at the recent great gathering of the Epworth League, that he was introduced to the convention "as the most widely known and Influential man in Methodism: a positive preacher, a comparative editor and a superlative debater and master in deliberative assemblies." Ee is a great debater and of course spoke. Among the reported sayings was one concerning the "press." He said: "The press competes with the courts in prosecuting crime, with the seminaries in educating, with fashion in modifying manners, and with the church as an agent for good or evil?" He married a first cousin of Rev. Joseph W. Shackford, one of the schol arly members of the Virginia M. E. Conference, an University of Virginia man. There is much talk in the north over a manufactory of D. D's. In a recent New Jersey presbytery Rev. Dr. J. C. Chapman, pastor of the First Presby terian church at Hackettstown, in that state, made a clear accusation that such a manufactory of bogus D. D's. existed that such degrees are sought and formed and worn. "There are men right in our Pres bytery here," says Dr. Chapman, "who have put 'D. D..' after their names on the church records, when I am as pos Itive as I am of my existence that they bought their so-called degrees just as they would a piece of merchandise. Only a short time ago there were four such doctors of divinity in this neigh borhood." That is "mighty bad" if true, that even among so scholarly a clergy as the Presbyterian, there should be false colors and misnamed divines. Dr. Chapman relates how he received recently a letter from the "chancellor" of a fictitious institution in a western city. "I am sure," wrote the "chancel lor," "that a gentleman of your ability and recognized standing ought to re ceive the degree of D. D. from some source. You need not make a formal application. By paying the fees of $175. he would secure the degree of D. D. He wrote a sarcastic letter to the "chancellor" and received a tart note in reply, ex pressing surprise that the New Jersey clergyman did not know a good thing when he saw it and intimating that many "college presidents and eminent scholars all over the country ' held de grees conferred by the institution in question. It seems that the ordinary opinion as to the English hexameter is incor rect that it is not "an artificial pro duct in English." Examples are given to show that the translators, either from design or unconsciously adopted the hexameter In rendering the Hebrew Bible. We give a few lines, but there are many examples: "Small and great are there, and the servant is free from his master. Looseth the bond of kings, and bindeth their loins with a girdle. Breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow. But ye shall die like men. and fall like one of the princes. At Thy rebuke, O Lord, at the blast of the breath of Thy nostrils. He shall come up as a cloud, and His chariot shall be as a whirlwind. We? did not esteem him stricken, smit ten of God, and afflicted. He whom Thou blessest is blessed, and he whom Thou curseth is cursed. Art Thou He that should come, or do we look for another?" This is taken from the London "Notes and Queries" an old and valuable pub lication. A writer in the "Argosy" on 'Old English Rustic Pralmody," gives an anecdote . of the great John Wesley's father, Rev. Samuel. He is reported as chuckling over one of his practical jokes. It is amusing and we copy: "It was the days of wigs, and Wes ley, when he was done with his caput covering, always made a present of it to his precentor- The latter was a little man, and the wigs of his superior al most buried his face out of sight. One Sunday morning the man of music looked more tljan usually ridiculous, and Wesley, irreverent as it may seem, could not resist giving out the psalm: "Like to an owl in ivy bush. That rueful thing am I." GLEANING AND COMMENT. Colonel Bryan replies to Senator Vest informing him that he "makes no claim to the leadership. He only claims the right to have convictions and to ex press them. "If other people have like convictions he will have company; if not he will be alone. Some one has defined a leader as 'one who is going In the same direc tion as the people and a little bit ahead." He stands by the principles of the Kansas City plaform, and tells Vest he will not find the income tax "a harmonizing issue." But it is right and properly laid is very productive. Great Britain reaps very largely from it. Bryan says Hill and Cleveland both opposed It. He writes: "Mr. Vest em phasizes the trust issue, but that Is not a harmonizing issue either, for the fi nancial Influences stand behind the trusts as solidly as they do behind the banks." But to figh the trusts Is right and a sacred duty. In Louisiana in six or eight counties there is much uneasiness among the whites, they fearing a negro uprising to kill the whites. The secret societies abound among the negroes. An Afri can Baptist Association issued an ad dress denying that there was any or ganization of negroes unfriendly to the whites or for the purpose of interfer ing with labor and that there Is no le gitimate cause for the many cases of the mistreatment of honest and Indus trious negroes in that section. The negroes are very numerous1 In that section- Two negroes are reported as committing suicide to escape1 lynching they feared , An interesting Inquiry Is being pur sued as to what became of Sampson during those eleven days. Oxx the 19th' of May he was Informed as to the Spaniards being at Santiago. He did not tell Schley of it until 23rd, ordering him to leave Cienfuegos. This he did on the 24th. He was delayed on the way for "the want of coal and by the disabled condition of the Eagle and the almost hopeless plight of the coaler Merrimac one of Secretary Long's purchases, of which more anon reach ing the neighborhood on the 26th. Find ing it impossible to coal his ships at sea on account of the rough weather, he started for Key West. The condi tions abated, however; he coaled in a sort of a way, and by the 2Sth was off to Santiago in blockade formation. The next day the 29th he knew absolutely that the Spaniards were Inside." This is the careful account of The Washington Post. Like other fair minded newspapers as to Schley The Post wishes to ascertain what had be come of Sampson all that time. He knew the fact1", on the 19th officially. Now, where was he after that? The Post asks pertinently and pointedly: "What was he doing between that date and the 30th'. when he at last set out for Santiago? Schley has been hound ed and villified by the department be cause, as they allege, "he wasted three whole days." What, then, of Sampson's eleven whole days? Sampson's advices from Washington were specific and di rect. Shley's orders, filtered through Sampson, were vague and hypothetical, full of ifs and ands. But Sampson did not leave Key West until the 30th, al though Cervera had been positivelly lo cated for him on the 19th. Why?" Perhaps the great sea captain with out a fight or a feather gained in bat tle was afraid of Cervera.had "no stom ach for the fight" and rested upon his brilliant honors already gained without the firing of a gun. The country will be interested in the inquiry Where was the mighty Sampson during the fateful, previous eleven days? THE LATEST TURN IN THE SCnLEY CASE. The navy department is at its old, low tricks. It declines to send the newspaper statement to Admiral How ison in which he is reported as reflect ing on the character of Rear Admiral Schley. The newspapers generally refer to Howison and Schley as admirals, but Schley signs himself "rear admir al" and refer?? to Howison by that title. Schley wished to know from Howison if the report was correct. The depart ment hedges and plays false and says it can not interfere, and says it will be referred to the court. The thing of inT terest Is that the department holds back the clipping and leaves the pub lic in the dark. How can people know what the bearing is upon the case so long as is is held from their scrutiny? The important question is, has Howi son been talking against Schley? If he has then ho is wholly unfit to sit as a judge to investigate and to try the great naval victor. If Howison has been talking; if he is really antagonis tic to Schley and a partisan of Samp son, then by all that is right and hon orable and just he is completely unfitted for the place he is named for. If he agrees to sit as judge after this re velation; if he is willing to obey and to be a party to Schley's condemnation and injury, it reveals his character, it shows the country what estimate is to be placed upon such a fellow when he is willing to serve in a position he is wholly unfitted for by reason of hi3 own bad conduct. He holds a high place and he has the reputation of being a gentleman of honor, but what can be thought of him if after blabbing for Sampson and to the detriment and condemnation of Schley, he is fcund playing the part of judge, not to hold the scales fairly but to condemn a most highly meritorious officer of equal rank with himself? The court will have to purge itself if Howi son has been talking against Schley. That is the long and the short of it. Nothing but a fair, full, just trial, will do. The country demands it and will have nothing less. The Atlanta Journ al expresses the rightful, sane view when it says that "the slightest sus picion that any member of the court did not enter upon the discharge of his duty with a mind perfectly free from preconception or bias would be fatal to the moral value of the Verdict if it should be controlled by the vote of such a prejudiced party." The Washington Post when not bias ed politically is apt to utter sound and safe judgment. Writing of the eligi bility of Howison. it writes most eensl sibly and calmly. We make a few de tached excerpts; "Of course, Admiral Howison cannot serve in the Schley court of lnautrv if he has at any time declared himself as prejudiced. This Is a rrorosition which needs no argument. We do not know that he is disqualified. "This gentleman enjoys a very high reputation icr intelligence, integrity and good faith. "If he really indulged the utterances attributed to him as the result of the organized deception practiced by the anti-focniey caoai and not through any personal feeling or conviction hostile to the man himself, it is quite possible that he may make as just and as wise a judge as any other. But that Is a mat ter for his own conscience. Certainly. there must be no cloud upon the integ rity of this court. "The American p.ople now welcome the opportunity involved In this inves tigation and will accept the verdict of any tribunes in whose honor and impar tiality they have confidence. But they will accept on no other terms, and the man who undertakes to cheat them of their stern desire will have reason to 1 curse. the hour of bis birth" THE ENORMOUS PENSIONS The big pension roll very naturally attracts the attention of newspapers and the tax payers This roll has steadily grown lnsplte of lime. It Is thirty-six years since the great war closed. The number of pensions in creases and Is now about 450.000 greater than-It was In 1S90. The total on the SOth of June. 1901. was 993.529. Since then and during 1901. the "number of claims allowed during the fiscal year of 1901. for original pensions was 44,225, and the number of names added to the rolls by renewals and restorations was 3.567, making the total number of names on the rolls 1.041.321." We give a total that is educating. It shows how it was in 1S90. and what it was twelve years later: June 30, 1S90 537,944 June 30, 1S91 676.160 June 30, 1S92 876.06S June 20, 1S93 966,012 June SO, 1S94 969.544 June 30, 1S35 970,524 June 30. 1696 970,678 June 30, 1S97 976.014 June 30, 1S93 993,714 June 30, 1899 991,519 June 30, 1900 933.529 June 30, 1901 997.733 During the year there were 5,793 add ed, of which 3.S49 was by the Spanish war- There have been 1.5S7 losses, but none by the great war or as the lying government still calls It "war of rebel lion." But the actual number now is as given above 1,041,321. Think of that, thirty-six years after peace was declared! The fees paid to attorneys during the year amounted to J391.245.22, being an Increase of $73,S6S.90 over the previous year. The Spanish war pensioners received $1,175,225.76, an increase over last year of $842,320.51, and the pensioners under the act of June 27, 1S90, as amended by the act of Mas 9, 1900, received $66,973, 481.15, being an increase over last year of $1,207,401.SO. That is piling on a long-suffering people with a vengeance. The south has had to pay pensions to its enemies, and marauders since 1S65, amounting to probably more than one thousand millions of dollars, enough to make the south immensely rich if it could have kept that huge sum at home. Since July 11, 1S65, to June 30. 1901. aggregate the enormous sum of $2,666,304,5S9. Is it any wonder that northern people are. "well to do?" The pension rolls still contain the names of one survivor and 1,527 wid ows on account of the war of 1S12, 1.0S6 survivors and 3.479 widows on account of Indian wars, and 7.568 survivors and 8,109 widows on account of the war with Mexico. The number of claims pending on June 30, 1301, was 403.569, including 24, 206 claims for accrued pension, and 33. 532 claims arising out of service in the war with Spain. Of the above number 228,534 were filed by persons who have heretofore been granted a pension, and who are now seeking an additional al lowance. There are also 41.339 claims for "new disabilities." In 1S97, there were 578.039 claims pend ing. In June 1891, there were 403,569. If you would see how this huge pen sion system of pillage and fraud has grown read the following. We men tion again that both General Grant and General Garfield, republican presi dents, held that the pensions should under no court ever exceed $31,000,000 for a year, and one of these we believe, put it at less than $30,000,000. Here are the terms and sums paid: Grant's first term $116,136,275 00 Average per year 23,034,068 75 Grant's second term 114,395,357 00 Average per year 28,598,839 25 Hayes's administration .. 145,322.489 00 Average per year 38,330,622 25 Garfield's adminis'tion .. 237,825,070 45 Average per year 53,456.267 61 Cleveland's first term 305,636.662 23 Average per year 76,409,165 56 Harrison's adminis'tion .. 513,707,725 94 Average per year 129,826.931 48 Cleveland's second term .. 557,930,407 28 Average per year 139,487,601 82 McKinley's first term 560,000,547 24 Average per year 140.000,136 81 The American people the burden bearers should have this vile raide upon their pockets ended. It is a great shame and outrage. All Europe com bined pays no such annual tax for blood-suckers. A HARVARD PROFESSOR ON LYNCHING. Professor N. S. Shaler is a Kentuck Ian by birth, and that may explain his common-sense views as to lynch ing. He is of the facultv of Harvard University, near Boston. In a recent magazine paper he said, to the sur prise we doubt not of the regulation New England professor and with much force of statement "that this rude law Is not a sign of real lawlessness. nor of a people given to savage out bursts of fury. It is the mark of a folk in a curious adjustment to their con cept of law and of the nature of their fellowmen. It cannot be taken as a sign of a low moral estate, but rather of a rude, though high conception of the measure of protection owed to the defenseless, and. above all, to women, and of a new, possibly transient, but more likely permanent, loss of the an cient and noble idea of justice as some thing set over and apart from man, and to which he owes reverence." Lynching does show 6trongly and conclusively that the white men regard it as a high, noble duty and obligation not to be denied or avoided to protect the helpless, defenseless women and child ren, and that "trial in the woods" shal be resorted to when ever it becomes Imperatively necessary to throw the protecting power around the sacred persons of mothers, wives, daughters and sweet-hearts. It has been seen for some time, and many southern newspapers have commented, that ai the negro population ' in the north increases, the antagonism to lynch ing has diminished in proportion SwiXt. unerring' Justice has taken the place with many of theories and opinions as to what is proper Justice for criminals. Professor Shaler writes, and ft is true In Its application to most men who will take a hand In lynching & red handed murderer or a beast who will violate the presence of chaste women. ar.d In some instances murdering af terwards the defenceless victims of a cruel. Infernal lust: "So far as I have been able to Judge the state of mind of lynchers, it is useless to talk to them concerning the dignity of the law. for they really feel that they are its most effective agents." This view is not peculiarly southern. In the great cities north and in some states. It has been shown that rioting and excess and extreme violence may follow on accusations very far below rape and murder iw the south. The Savannah NTs calls to mind a recent display t Tjger and violence in Greater Vr York over a trifling mat ter comparatively. It says: "Nobodv was hantred or burned at the stake, it is true, but the spirit which moved the mob to rioting and the de struction of the pay chairs is identical with that whicti leads to the hanging of culprits to limbs. The New Yorkers felt that thev had suffered an outrage when they were charged 5 cents for tho privilege of sitting in a chair in the public parks, and they arose in their anerer and smashed chairs and struck- chair tenders. And the police looked complaisantly on. without interfering." Lynchings are to be deplored, but the causes leading to them are most damn ing and awful. The tone of morals may suffer, but virtue and honor may be protected. Professor Shaler sees that there is a pressing "need of the methods of the court to prevent mis carriages of justice." Quick trials, a severe prompt dealing with crime and devils, and a short shrift are needed- 11A.CE ISSUE IN LONDON Raised at a West End Hotel The Nee; roes Win London, August 19. The Afro-Ameri can delegates to the international ecumenical council, which is to meet in Wesley's chapel, in City Road, Lon don, next month, are already arriving. Their advent is causing unexpected dif ficulty at one of the big hotels in the west end, where a large number of Americans are staying. The latter, amazed by the announcement that some 200 colored men were coming. formally protested to the proprietor, assuring him that such a thing would not be permitted in the United States and demanding that the colored people be accommodated in a separate part of the hotel. The proprietor declined to interfere, with the result that some of the Americans are already arranging to leave- To a representative of the Associated Press he said tonight: "I could not think of offering an in sult to such men as Bishop Derrick, of New York, Bishop Janner, of Philadel phia; Bishop Gaines, of Atlanta and Bishop Arnett. I told the Americans that when the Indian inheritences were here no one objected to meet them and I do not propose to make any distinc tion at the expense of Africans." THE INCIDENT CLOSED As to Ilowlson's Qualification to Sit on the Schley Court. Washington, August 23. At the navy department the matter of the service of Admiral Howison on the Schley court of inquiry is considered as a closed incident, so far as the department is concerned, and one which will be left to the consideration of the court Itself. Mr. Hackett stated today tnat he had not received the reply which, it is said. Admiral Schley will submit in regard to the action of the department declin ing to refer the original request con cerning the Howison interview to that officer for a statement. Captain Lemly, the judge advocate general of the navy, and the judge ad vocate of the Schley court, has return ed from Canada, and will at once begin the work of compiling a list of the wit nesses to be summoned before the court of inquiry. It is expected that this list will be ready for submission to Admiral Schley early next week. Captain Lemly will give practically his entire attention to the Schley case from this time on leaving the details of the judge advocate general's office to those who have handled them in his absence. Babcock and the Trusts Congressman Babcock. who wants to put on the free list all or tne articles the manufacture of which is controlled by the trusts, must appreciate by this time that It is not the masses in and out of his party that he must fight. He is right up against the trusts them selves, and we fear that the congress man did not estimate their political power aright. The trusts furnish the sinews of war with a lavish hand and just as a judicious investment. They have bought a seat for many a con gressman, and their friends in the sen ate are said to hold the balance of power. These men are held as was Ephraim joined to his idols, and the fact that Babcock is right in his scheme for breaking the power of the trusts Is the reason that he can have so little hope for success Detroit Free Press.
