Sir Kdwia Arnold Sentimentalizes Over a Pathetic Xogro 3Ielody. Iondon ,Telegrarh. In that part of the long journey when we were passing through Georgia, and at the moment when the tedium was wont, the trMn approached a long hollow In the hills where one of those pleasant surprises occurred which go to prove how song may consecrate a locality. A river, not very broad or deep, but with a certain special grace and character of its own. lay in front of our track. We had a good view of it as we c-ime near the woolen trestle biidge by which the line was carried across structures which, until you become acclimatized to American travel, always makes you wonder whether they will carry tiie train this time safely over. The river ran down from the Georgian hills in a lively current, broken sometimes into rapids and little cataracts where the red and black rocks lay across its channel, and then widening out into pietureso.ue reaches Ixjrdered by thickets of dark green fo'dage und clumps of cypress ami willow. In the clearings, here and there in the woods which bordered it stood isolated negro cottages, around which you could see little black children at piay, and the invariable pig. which is the house guest of the negro as well as of the Irishman. A punt was gliding along on the quiet part of the stream with a negro on loard dragging a lish line, and the black buzzards circled over the maize bel ls. It was not a very L-triking scene, glide! as it was by the rays of a magnificent sunset. Yet I should have forgotten it in a few minutes, as I had forgot the hundreds of other rivers which the rushing train had traversed, had it not b?en that I happened to ask the conductor what was the name of tnis particular water. Quite carelessly, he answered. "That's the Suwanee river. Mister." Suwanee river. In a moment the stream had for me a new and extraordniary interest. I had not even known that there was such a river hi geographical reality, or that It lowed through Georgia; and yet, here it was real, authentic, alive leaping down through the southern forests, past the maize lields and the cotton Hats, to Iour ItSr if into the tiulf of Mexico. In an instant everything around appeared to be full or' the svong that all the world knows and sings, "Way Dwon I'pon de Suwanee Ribber." The live oak seemed to wave it in the evening air; the strea.n smed to sing It as it bustle 1 over the rocks; the birti.i la the thickets had it in the soft musical notes we caught, and the crickets and katydids beginning their sunset chirrup joined In the half-heard chorus. The journey was no longer monotonous. To be "way down upon de Suwanee ribber" was to have come to a corner of America dedicated to that deep emotion of our common humanity the love of heme. Is there anybody who has not felt the charm of the simple nigger melody "When I was playin' wid my brudder, Happy was I, O, take me to my kind old mudder, Dar let me lib and . die. All de world nm sad and dreary, Ebory where I roam; Oh. darkies, how my heart grows weary, Far from do old folks at home." There, indeed, were the old folks at home, r. white-haired darkey sitting on a log by tho cottage uoor stripping maize cobs; and shambling about among the pigs and poultry, old Dinah, with a yellow bandana on her sliver looks, crooning some ?ong, which might, perhaps, be the song of the. river. So, after all. It was real, and tht-re was a Suwanee river, and the sunny peace and beauty of it were just what litted well with the sentiment of that touching and tender air which has gone all through the world booae.se it holds in its unaffected music the secret of ttu pathetic retrospects of life. Ju.-t the spot, it war, too, o which a ttred man. be he nigger cr oilier wise, might look back to with attachment and afi'ectl'in. We travelers coming suddenly upon it and leaving it at thirty miles an hour hiid, of court', notbinr: but the :no. t Hitting concern with "de Suwjncv libber." But one could imagine how dear it might be to a native booi. and how sincere the original emotion was of the song-writer, or else, of vorne darky from whom he borrowed it. to write and st to such soft and sympathetic music "Dar's where my heart is turning ever." Henceforward for me that Georgian stream, with the dark groves fringing it. and the re 1 crags, uaid the quiet reaches o? sliver water glided bv the setting sun. has a place in thought among the famous rivers of the globe; and I never hear the melancholy mu-ic of the populir nigger lament without a new feeling of what song can do. far beyond history and Important events, to consecrate a spot In nature forever, and to localb:e a universal sentiment.

Cold Wave Following the Rain Causes a Slight Advance. Larce Exports for the Week Kofi-ariled Favorable as Against a Keported Increase in the Visible. CHICAGO, Jan. 20. Fear of a cold wave which 13 in close pursuit of the preseit rain, catching it and the water soaked wheat fields before Monday, helped to sustain wheat to-day in tho face of an expected Increase in th? visible supply. The price at the close was 'c higher than It left off yesterday. Corn Is c higher and provisions are 121,-:c ud for pork, from .Ooc to .O4I2C for lard and .05c for ribs. The wheat market partly got Its strength frorn the larger exports from both coasts than the trade had expected. The exports were over 1,000,000 bushels more than the week previous. It Is expected that the visible supply will show an increase on Monday of about 50,000 bushels. Trade was slow and narrow, but local shorts showed some disposition to cover. May sold early at G4rjsc, fell to &ic, up to 64c, off to Cy2c and closed at Cb?ie. In corn there was a moderate speculative trade witnessed, though the market was in no way active, the price covering but 9kC range. A lirm feeling prevailed and slight gains were scored on all deliveries. Offerings were not free, even at the advance, while the demand improved considerable, several of the larger concerns having good-sized buying orders. The better tone was attributed to a great extent to the soft weather and small movement, together with a stronger cash market. The market opened at yesterday's closing prices, and worked up vsc, ruled lirm and closed with ?;e. gain. In oats tho buying by shorts was good and the offerings not very heavy. The feeling was strong and prices advanced c and closed lirm at the highest point. May sold liom 3:;o to .Uc. The advance was due to light receipts and the lirm tone of the corn market. Receipts of live hogs at the yards were fully ene-third less than the estimates, and, as a result, the speculative market for provisions opened higher all around. The volume of trading was, however, extremely light. In mess pork the market was a very narrow one, the range for the day beung within 7lc. Just before the tap of tho bell prices advanced to the opening figures of the day with the closing 2'2c higher than at the same time yesterday. Estimated receipts for Monday are: Wheat, US cars; corn, L'SO cars; oats, 116 cars; hogs, 34.000 head. Beading futures ranged as follows: Open- High- Low- ClosArtleles. ing. est. est. ing.

That there is a great Napoleon renaissance on both skies of the Atlantic, any one who knows how to feci the public pulse can tell. 1 had only noticed it within the pa-st year 'or two, but Mr. Robert II.

The Century Magazine and Scribner's have published most important articles cn Napoleon during the iast year, and the latter magazine has found no more reductive premium than the new revised edition of Bc-urrier.ne's "Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte." General Marine's memoirs, published here by the Scribners, "made a most extraordinary success in France, where thv have gone through a dozen or more editions, having reached a sale of over sixty thousand copies. it is an oien secret that Professor Sloane, of Princeton, has been at work for several yeir past on a life of Nnpolerm that will appear serially in the Cenrtiry Magazine. Tnere has been na adequate life of Napoleon written, and Professor Sloane s, it is 'tid. will leave nothing for future biographers to tell. The life of Napoleon lends itself tj the most elaborate illustration, for there is virtually no end to the material for this purpose. As for the stage, plays bearing upon the life .and times of Napoleon are apparently the only ones that have any interest in ParH to-day. See the success of Sardou's "Mn . Sans-Gene." "Thermidor," and "Napolejn." the latter now running at the Theater Porte Saint Martin. Old books reflating to Napoleon have been reprinted and ar hawked along the boulevards of Paris. In the midst of all thl3 Napoleonic excitement, Frederick Masson rs edited and published a volume on the laves cf Napoleon, and printing many of his letters to the various women with whom he h"d relations other than matrimonial. But of all in the book, those to his wife, Josephine, the only woman he evec really loved, are the most sincere the most pass'onate. No matter how occupied he was wdth war, he had time for love. His letters were no perfunctory protestations of afiectlon. They are long and carefully worded, and show him to have been quite as much at home wth th we.tpns of Cupi'i as of Mar. France is ddghted with these letters, for Frarce of all countries, loves a lover. In translating the following pissionate letter to Josephine, "you" has been used instead of 'thou," aa being more euphonious in English: "Port-Maurice, 3 April, 17. "I have received all your letters, but none ha.i made upon me so dep an 1mpre?don as your last. Do you think, adorable friend, to writ? m In these term:? Did not my lot saem already cruel enough without So magnifying my regrets and eonfouniing my rcul? What language! what fee! lues are those that you describe! Thy are like lire, thy scorch my sad heart. My only Josephine, far from you there is no enjoyment; far from you the world is a desert, wh'-re I brood in loneliness and without feeling the joy of pouring myself out. You have taken nway from me more than my soul; 3'ou are the one thought of my life. If I am disconcerted by the confusion of affairs; If I fear the outcome; if men exasperate me; If I am
ready to curse life. I carry my hand to my heart; your picture beats there: I look upon it, and love is for me absolute happiness; all Is joyous except the time that I spend away from my friend. "By what art did you discover how to captivate all my faculties, to make yourself the focus of my intellectual and moral existence? To live for Josephine! behold the ftory of my life. I endeavor to reach you; I am expiring tt come to you. Insensate! I do not realize that I am leaving you. By what lands, what countries, are we separated! What a laps 2 of time before you read these characters, feeble expressions of a yearning heart only swayed by you! Ah. my adorabla wife! I know not what fortune awaits me, but If it banisher me longer from you it will become insupiortable; my courage will not hold out. There was time when I was vain of my courage, and at times, casting my eye over the evil that men might do me, the expsriences that destiny miiht have in store for me, I contemplated undreamed-of misfortunes without lifting an eyebrow without feeling appalled. But to-day the idea that my Josephine may be In trouble, the idea that she could be ill, and, atove all. tho cruel, the unutterable thought that she could love me less, shrivels my soul, checlLS my bload, renders me forlorn, browbeaten- leaves me not even the courage of fury Arid do-pair. Often I wo-s wont to say to myself: Men can do nothing to him who dis without a regret; but to-day, to elie unloved of you, to die without that certainty that is to me the anguish of hell, the vivid and startling Image of absolute annihilation. I seem to b? suffocating. My only companion, you whom fate has appointed to make with me the painful Journey of life, the day when I no longer nave your h:art that day when nature will be for me without wamth and without vegetation. I falter, ny sve:t friend; my heart Is sad, my strength is exhausted, my soul is welghe-d down. Men irritate me. I ought. Indeed, to det:st tlem; they banish me from my heart. "I am at Port-Maurice, near Oncille; tomorrow I am at Albenga. The two armies bestir themselves. To the most aide the victory. I v.m measurably content with Beaulieu: he Is skillful In maneuver; he is a stronger man than his predecessor. I shall beat him, I trust, in the best manner. "Have no fears; love me as your eyes; but this Is not enough rather, like yourself more than yourself, more than your thought, your soul, your life, your all. Tii"n, my friend, forgive; I am beside myself; nature is feeble for him who feels deeply for him whom you love. "To Barras, Sucy, Mme. Tallicn. sincere friendship: to Mme. Chateau-Renard. the usual civilities; to Eugene, to Hortense, true affection." Since the publication of the foregoing the Messrs. Scribner have brought out th first volume of Chancellor Pasquier's memoirs, which were written from the "insidv' by one who tdnyed an important part in the French revolution and the Napoleonic er 1. The first volume (there are to be two more) begins with the movement leading to the revolution and ends with Napoleon's departure for Russia. ItAIXY WKVTHKIt STREET ATTI11K.
Bail ten Should Wear Trim Shoe ami Hewn re the Fickle White Petticoat. New York Sun. An earnest student of human nature once said that the most melancholy sight In the viorld is to see a fat man with a boll on the back of his neck try to flirt with a girl in a fourth story window. But for red downright yard-wide sadness the average woman on a wet day distances all competitors. The real test of good dressing is a rain storm, for it is only the wo. man of great moral rectitude that is anything but a sight te shudder at in a downpour. It Is easy enough to be pretty when the sun shines and the sky Is clear, but directly the clouds gather demoralization sets In, and the result is enough to make a man cross the street to avoid his own best girl. The first mistake a woman makes on a rainy day is to put on her oldest shoes, run down at the heel, and perhaps with a button or two missing. Now there is newr a day when a woman's feet are so much in evidence as on a ralnj day, when she gathers up her petticoats out of the wet. Why wouldn't it be a scheme to have a pair of rainy day shoes, perfectly fitting, thoroughly high principles! In the matter of fastening, prettllj' shaped, and natty in style? Of course the first rainstorm would take off the finish of the leather, but that isn't what is noticed. It is the general outline, the fit, as If the boot was put on hot the neatness of it all that attracts. "i The next mistake the woman makes Is In putting on a white petticoat because it "will wash." After the first slough of despair at the crossing is passed, it will ilop dismally and tlrearily about the ankles the rest of the day. A wet Hopping skirt about one's he?l3 like that Is more depressing than a death in the family. It isn't easy to solve the rainy-elay question. An ulster is not all that fancy paints It. It is too heavy to hold up with any comfort. If it is let down it sweeps up the mire from the crossings. A mackintosh is worse, more trying to the temper. A waterproof will not look elegant, though it is better than either of the others, for you can reach elown Inside it and gather the petticoats up out of the way, or, better still, pin them up a little before the waterproof is put on. Bbt a little maid went tripping along through last week's snow flurry in such an ideal rainy-day dress that it should be perpetuated in poetry. The dress itself was of heavy dreadnaught serge, heavliy lined, and apparently worn over woolen, tishts. for there was no petticoat visible as she lifted tho short, scant little skirt a trifle at th2 back. The outer garment was a combination exat and cape, and it came down only to the knees. The hat was a jaunty little Tarn O'Shanter of rouerh felt, with a saucy feather, the gloves English dogskin, the boots English calfskin, and beside the other wretched bedraggled women, looking like so manv unhappy pussy cats in the rain, this trim little maid walked all unharmed and unafraid of the elements, like Una and the lion, a thing of beauty and a joy forever. What Ileeomea of Freak. Chatles Robinson, in LIppincott. The physical lives of most freaks, like their professional careers, are short. The fat people usually die of apoplexy, and it Is a good thing, too, for many of them suffer more than the public imagines. The giants and dwarfs generally live longer than their fellow curiosities, but, no matter how good.they may be in their line, they bcome worse, than useless as soon as they can no longer make themselves attractive in appearance. Only the other day I came across one of the mor-t noted professional plants of his tiny second only to tne great Chnng himreif in statue limping along Sixth avenue between the boards of a sandwich advertisement of a cheap restaurant. It Is only a few months since one of tho leading fat men In the business fell ill nnd lost his flesh. As a result, h Is now driving an ice wagon in Brooklyn. When on the road, he received as much as $50 a wek. So. again, one who some few- years bark was accounted the most noted long-haired womin in the country is now working for 510 a week, addressing wrappers In a mailing agency on the west sl'K She used to get $7') a week In the days when she was a star, but there ore so many better heads of hair than hers In the market now that she can't get employment as a freak any longer.
