LINCOLN.

The orations delivered throughout the country on the recent anniversary of Lincoln's birthday, show that time is making vast additions to the fame of this noble man. Thirty years ago partisan malice, jealonsy and other mean human passions threw many poisoned darts at him, but it is now demonstrated that they all fell harmless at his feet. He stands before the world to day the greatest man of the age in which he figured. In one respect he stands above Dearly, if not all, other historic characters—he was absolutely free from all the vices that mar human character. Washington gambled—Lincoln never did. Washington was often agitated by storms of passion—Lincoln never was. Washington was often haughty and aristocratic and in his dealings penurious and exacting. Lincoln had none of these faults. He WBB always on a level with the common people, whose sorrows and deprivations he knew from his own experiences. Generosity and mercy were the leading qualities ot his heart, and as a statesman and ruler, his mind was as clear and far-seeing as any human mind ever was. Time has already placed him upon a pedestal so high that none can Bee his commanding form without looking upward. No one occupies a position in the whole world to day, from which he can look down on plain, honest, sagacious Abrhbam Lincoln.

A WASKING

The judgment against ShackuHurd and the town of Ladoga, for leaving a dray standing in the street one night, at which a horse took fright and killed itself, should be a warning to some ol our citizens who are in the habit of making a wagon yard of the streets of this city. And the city itself should see that the streets are kept free from euch obstructions. It is woll settled law that one who leaves an obstruction it) the street, subjects both himself and the city to suit for damages should an result from such violations of the law.J.

THOSE who have been wondering at the appointment of Judge Jackson by President Harrison will find an explanation in an interview in the New York Prc&i: 'Judge Jackson,' said Senator Washburn, of Minnesota, to the interviewer, 'is not an old State rights Democrat, as has been reported. He comes of old Whig stock, and I have no doubt that on all political questions he will vote with the Republicans. He was a Union man during the war, which proves conclusively that he never was a believer in the State rights doctrine. Judge Jackeon is a man of great ability, and his appointment is a most excellent one. Republicans who are criticising Presi-

Harrison for not appointing a

dent member of his party are too hasty. I doubt if any Republican Mr. Harrison could have nominated would have been confirmed. There is no limit to debate in the Senate, you know, and the Democrats could easily prevent a vote upon any nomination between now and the 4th of March.'"

THE fact becomes clearer every day that Cleveland is making up his cabinet on the theory of a merchant employing clerks to transact business under his personal direction. In other words, be expects to be boss of all the departments in the most positive and autocratic sense.

IT will be rough on Senatoi Seller if Ader'a apportionment bill goes into effect. There ie little danger, however, of its doing ao. The bill, while unfair, it too fair for the cloven hoofed Detnoc racy of the Indiana legislature.5

THE following editorial from a Missouri paper has the Bourbon riDg: "The colored people ot the conntrj talk of forming an anti-lvnching society. An anti raping society would accomplish better results."

THE annexation of Hawaii will probably be effected under the present Administration, and thus another star will be added to the great constellation of Republican achievements.

THEKE wss a time when ex Governor Gray seemed to have a sure cinch on a Cabinet position, but now it isn't safe to bet that he will evon get the Indianapolis PoBt Office.

Tns old army comrades of Judge Gresham would like to know if bis influence as Secretary ot State will be ex erted in favor of the Democratic ant:penaion policy.

THE HERMIT AUTHOR

EDNALYALL SEEN IN HER EASTBOURNE HOME,

The Author®** Seldom Goes to Town and Prefers to Wander the Fields

Alone—A Picturesque Figure In the

Literary World.

HE YOUNG AOthoress of "Donovan" and "We Two" is one of the veiled personalities of literary England. She lives at I me of the smaller south coast pleasure towns, seldom goes to London and is never seen

in that world of fashion and pleasure where most Americans pass the time of their visits to t)'» mother country During- \lie last few years there have been few books more discussed iu the drawing-room and at the dinner table than those published in tke name of Edna Lvall, and very interesting, and sometimes very amusing, has it been to hear the different ideas that some of their readers have formed of her personal characteristics. It need hardly be said that most cases the imaginary Edna Lyall -was in sharp contrast to the real Edna Lyall.

In thinking of Edna Lyall, the imagination of one of her London friends takes him sixty miles from London to an old-fashioned house in the pretty town of lyistbourne, writes Frederick Dolman. The house seems old-fash-ioned, yet, like most of the residences in Eastbourne, it must have been built within the last twenty or thirty years. It is built of dark red brick in the Gothic style, and is ivy-cOTered and having a quaint porch with an ovalshaped door has a venerable aspect that age has not earned. The roadway is studded with mountain-ash trees. Eastbourne is famous for its umbrageous thoroughfares, and the bouse is half hidden by foliage from its neighbors, as well as from passers-by.

The house is that of a clergyman, as its semi-eccleciastical appearance might well suggest, who married Edna Lyall" elder sister. The Rev. Mr. Jameson is curate of St. Savior's church, the principal edifice of the Established church in Eastbourne, to which the authoress presented a peal of bells which were purchased with the revenue from the publication of "Donovan." From the windows of her room on the upper story of the house Edna Lyall can almost see the church, and the music of the bells sometimes gives its message to her ears as she writea In this room were written, "In the Golden Days," "Knight Errant," "A Hardy Norseman," a.nd "The Autobiography of a Slander."

The authoress herself is now pale and worn with an illness that has quite suspended any literary work since the publication of "A Hard}' Norseman." The eyes have lost a little of their luster and the cheeks the color they once possessed. The slight form is somewhat thinner, and the hand that clasps yours instinctively tells of much suffering. But a bright smile is coupled with the assurance of convalescence, and the voice, at first weak aud low, gathers intonation and quiet force when the talk is on some- stirring topic. Like Charlotte Bronte's heroine, Ada Ellen Bay ley (the pseudonym, you see, is only a transposition of some of the letters in her baptismal name), has no beauty beyond that intellectual beauty to which Shelley wrote his well-kn®wn hymn, ihe face is small and of un

even formation, the broad forehead having a suggestion of the masculine that is scouted by the sweet and sympathetic expression of the eyes. The brown hair would be beautiful "ere it not cut short and arranged with an almost severe simplicity. She usually dresses in a close-fitting garment ol some plain material. Edna I.yal owes really all her charm to her sym pathetic presence, if 1 may be par doned the expression, her spiritual earnestness and tender feeling. I'ity is one of her predominant qualities there always seems to be an undcrenr rent of sadness in her character at ill misery and woe in the world aruun her.

Kdna Lyall has wi'itcn her woilt mostly in the light and sunshine. which Eastbourne obtains a very 1 iV eral share. She always writes in llr morning, plying the typewriter for about two hours at a time, having pjeviously shaped and formed each chapter in her own mind. Her lirsl thought is of the chief character, the hero or heroine, of the story. Next comes the plot, the circumstances and incidents necessary to bring out the individuality of this character. She then makes some slight sketches of the minor members of the dramatis personaj, and shp is ready to begin tlio novel. The Hme she spends upon it great

ly varies. Having great fondness for travel, the progress of the work may be Interrupted by a visit to the continent A good part of "Donovan," however, was actually written while traveling in Italy. Although Edna Lyall has only just entered the thirties, not one of her eight works has been written in a hurry, or even in response to the commands of her publishers, Before writing "In the Golden Days" she made an exhaustive study of the period in which lt« story was placed, reading Wei wood's "Memoirs," Luttrell's "Diary," "Macaulay's History," and other less known authorities.

Every reader of "Knight Errant" and "A Hardy Norseman" must have noticed how these novels are permeated with the spirit of the time. This is not surprising, seeing that Edna Lyall is a diligent reader of the newspapers. But although keenly interested in the questions of the hour Edna Lyall taki no active part in politics. She think? women can do more lasting service to their country in the education of children, in infusing their minds with the best sentiments in regard to public affairs than by speaking on platforms or canvassing for votes. This feeling
