was not -difficult to discover that Victor
'Hugo wes not a great dramatic pect
"of the ' race and lineage of Shake-
speare."k A groat poet he was beyond
all quest on, perhaps the greateet poet
of the century, but his gift was lyric
and not Idramatic. He was a lerist of
incomparable Vigor, variety and Sono-
rity, and as a lyric he had often, an al-
most epic amplitude of vision. As a
dramatist his outlook was naeroW, and
petty. He could not conceive beldly. a I
lofty theme, treating it with the i un-
failing simplicity of the masters. , His
subjects • 'were lacking in nobility, in
dignity, in stateliness. His ptota were
violent and extravagant, and his oh r-
acters were as forced as his situatio s.
The poetry tobe found in his plays is
external rather than internal. It isal-
most an afterthought. Under the!1 rr-
ical dra erytwhich is So deceptive at

Pitt as a ' Spendthrift.
• How did Pitt spend his income and
get into debt? Diiiring the greater part
of his life, after he had come to mans '
estate, he was in pi:ace, and his income
was about £10,04d per annum. " He did
not entertain, he, did_ not gamble, he
neither hunted hor shot, and yet at
the end of seventeen years of this in-
come of £10,000 per annum he was
hopelessly in debt. That he was care-
less is very possible. Still, considering
that his income Was equal to 120,000
per annum now, how in the name of
wonder did he spend it?
This is all the more mysterious, as
he appears never to have paid his
tradesmen. I haVe often seen it stated
that England ought to be proud of one
of her greatest statesmen having died
poor. Neither Pitt nor England had
reason to be proud of a statesman, en-
joying an ample Official income, dying
heavily in debt and making the pay-
ment of his trad smen's bills depend-
ent on parliame; t voting a slim to
meet the liability -London Truth.
How Sheridnn Paid a Debt.
No one knew better the power pos-
sessed by a really polished compliment
than Sheridan, aud on innumerable cm-
casioOs during that rather stormy, the-
atrical management of his did he ex-
tricate himself from a difficulty by
means of one. A good instance is the
following: An English nobleman who,
after the manner of other of his peers,
had married a beautiful actress once
applied with much dignity in the
greenroom to Mr. Sheridan for the ar-
rears of her salary and vowed that he
would not stir till they were paid. "My
dear lord," said the impecunious man-
ager, "this is too had. You have taken
from us the brightest jewel in the
world, and you isow quarrel with us
for the little dust she has left behind
her." The nobleman immediately burst
out laughing, and over a bottle of wine
the debt was canceled. ---London Stand-
ard.
• The Marine Engine Is Alive.
All good old chiefs love their engines
and come to believe in them. To all of
us assistants and 'prentices they were
not the mere machines that they ap-
pear to the outsider, but quite human.
* Every noise they f made, every motion,
every trick they had we knew and had -
the' reason for it. Kipling speaks of the
marine engine aa the most sensitive
thing man ever invented. There's a
sort of cold, lifeless, though admirable,
precision in a teleeeepe and a fine re-
gard for details in a phonograph, but
the marine engine is alive; it strains
and labors desperately, agroans with
rheumatism in its joints, screarias with
the pain of tight bearings, staggers
and plunges against the oncoming seas,
gets out of breath and runs away with
itself, trembling like a frightened
horse. -Benjamin 'Brooks in Scribner's.
Glaring Effrontery.
Uncle Absalom Ashby was much
• given to retailing old and hackneyed
jokes. An acquaintance of his, think-
ing to cure him of his practice, one day
gave hint a copy of "Joe Miller's Jest
Book," with the remark that he "might
find something neW in it."
The next time he met the old gentle-
man he asked him, "Well, uncle, what
do you think of that book I gave you
the other elay?"
"T don't know Who that 'ere Joe Mil-
_ler is," indignently responded IUncle
Absalom, "but I do know he's a thief.
He's got hold of a lot of my befit sto-
ries and printed 'em, consarn hind!"
First Census Ways.
The original schedules of the first
census are now contained in twenty-
six bound volumes, preserved in the
interior department. For the most
part the headings of the schedules
were written in by hand. Indeed, um
to ad including. 1820 the assistant
;marshals generally used such paper as
they happened to have, ruling it, writ-
ing in the headings and binding the
sheets , together themselves. In some
cases merchants' account paper was
used, and now and then the schedules
were bouni inside of a newspaper. -
