"THE LUCK OF ROARING CAMP."

HOW NEARLY BRET HARTE 15 STORY WAS ONCE REFUStlVBY A

PUBLISHER.

New York annj^w"*^! %$•

"And so you were the originator of •the Overland Monthly Magazine, and really stood sponsor lor Bret Harte?" I -said to Mr. Rotnau, of Ban Francisco. "Yes, sir. Like aom« of your prominent Eastern publishers, I felt that I mast own and run a magazine. So I started tbe Overland. Its early life was a struggle, moro particularly owing to its want of an editorial bead. I made several trials, and finally Mr. Harte name was suggested to me. He came by appointment, and at the very moment I was considering a change or die lor tte coyer. Tbe cut representing grizzly standing alone without sur roundings, seemed so bare of suggee tion tbat 1 had determined on some al teratlou. My partner apd chief clerk made several sketches, but they (ailed to please me. So intent were we on this subject tbat Mr. Harte was neglected after a recognition. Then, as a matter of easy introduction to tbe business be and 1 uere to discuss, I called attention to our want, never imagining tbat he could help us out. What was my surprise when, on taking a pencil, he aim: ply drew two lines, placing our grizzly on tbe Padfio railroad. The die needed noHrtber flulsb. It seemed an in&pira tion, and I tbougbt if he were so apt in tbis particular, what might be be capable of in illuminating the inside pages o! my magazine. "From that moment he had my flill confidence. After a little talk I con eluded an agroement with blm to fur nish an article a month, and to generally superintend tbe magizme. The preliminaries of tbat moutb over, and his opening article furnished, he and started on a fishing excursion to Sonors We were having an excellent time, blending magazine with sport, and hacl determined on a longer stay, when letter from my partner, after leading tbe proof of 'Tbe Luck of Roaring Camp,' denouncing it 'as wholly inde cent and unfit for publication in amoral magazine,' caused us to hastily pack our traps and return. "Mr. Harte was out of sorts the whole way, and 1 nursed my disappointment at bis first venture. However, be said be bad other matter tbat might please tbe fastidious O and there need be no delay in tbe month's issue. He did not try to explain away 's objections, but said tbat tbe argument was taken from real life, too real, perhaps,, and that maybe his philosophlo treatment was at fault. On reaching nay office, I met several of tbe establishment resdy with their condemnations, even to uplifted hands, and all prophesying that suob an article would be a death blow to my magaslne. Mr. Harte in the meantime bad hurried to his home for other MSS. I took the proof home when I went to luncb, and thought that per baps after reading it in that sanctity might get is better idea how to cauticyo ana direct Mr. fiRrte asf to magazine? morals. Purauioft Jay habit of resting for' an hod* oa tniriounge, I ga\% the prooftn fliy wtftrto rear! aloud, as was er common practice, and lay with closed eyes, expecting a fearful encounter with her. yet hoping for some favor from het critical judgment. I was struck particularly with its descriptive foroe and conciseness in narrative, and thinking what a waste of imagination over so trivial an incident, when I heard a sob, and look ing up, my wife was in tears. Tbat was enough. I rushed to tbe office, and, without explanation, ordered the article Inserted, and so 'The Luck of Roaring Camp' appeared. Our San Francisco papers were somewhat careful in their uotices, and 1 waited most eagerly tor tbe Eastern papers. They came, and were universal in their praises ana tiieu I told my wife that she was truly tbe sponsor of Bret Harte."

TRYING TO ASTONISH A PAWN BROKER. Tbe imperturbability and extreme caution of the average pawnbroker are proverbial. On Saturday a young man of an experimental and facetious mind resolved to astonish a pawnbrokeror die in tbe attempt. So entering tbe secret serine he gave tbe officiating pontiff a ten dollar gold piece, and said: "Well, old man, bow much'li you advance me on tbat?" Tbe pawnbroker tested, rang, and weighed the coin, dropped a little aquafortis upon it, and replied: "I can let you have four dollars on it." "Four E rebuses!" cried the young man, "why, it's worth more." "Well, yes," answered the pawnbroker, "the gold is good, evidently, but it is very old fashioned—it was made In 1834—and it isn't worth any more than its weight in old metal. Besides there is suob a fluctuation in gold and silver. I've seen gold and silver up to two hundred and eighty-five, and silver down to eighty-four how do I know but that auver may go up to two hundred and eigbty-five and gold down to eightyfour 1 1 can't/ take any risks in my business like that, yon know. But I'll tell you what I will do, aeelng it's you, I don't mind letting yon have five dollars on it but don't let the boas know, for he has the heart disease, and the shock might kill him." "Gimme seven dollars, and take it," said the impetaoas youth but tbe pawnbroker shook his bead so sternly tbat be knew It was no good, and so picking up his ten dollar gold piece he departed. Ho returned three minutes afterwards, and throwing down the •ame piece, said to the pawnbroker: "Say, can you give me two five dollar greenbacks for this?" "Certainly, *ir," said the pawnbroker, calmly, and producing the notes. "You sweet scented idiot," said the young man as he pocketed tbe bills, "that's the same ten dollar gold piece that yon wouldn't lend me aeven dollars on at Intereet a minute ago." "I know it, my friend," said the pawnbroker—"tbat was business."

TBE GREAT MEN OF THE PAST. Bob Toombs. All In all Mr. Webster was the greatest man I ever knew. Not the most eloquent, but tbe greatest. As a regulator men Clay was bis superior, and on occasion Clay was as eloquent as a man could well be. Calhoun was tbe greatest logician 1 ever knew. It may seem strange, but tbe two most eloquent men I erer heard were Yankees Choate and Prentiss. They were incomparable. Prentiss was tbe most eloquent probably, but Choate was the best debater. I saw Choate and Webster pitted once, and to Webster's discomfiture, In thoae days our statesmen were mush better scholars than they are now. There was less general education but higher special education. We baler odd to me that be never knew a man who oould make a pretty speech that was fit for much els4, and this troth, I think, goes without exoeptlon.

fnllv appreciate his noble character, while at tbe same time they could admire it. Two volumes pf his sermons were published by bim during his life, snd two additional volumes werd published after his death by-a Mebaand and fellow-collegian. Here is a quota tion from one of tbeee sermons which deserves immortality, for it expresses a great and vital truth in a few words. Cut it out, or oopy it, and place it among your treasures with which you oft hold counsel. Says Seed: "Anger and revenge are uneasy passions hence it appears that the command of loving your enemies, which has been thought a bard saying, aud impossible to be fulfilled, ia really no more #heq resolted intolts first principles, than bidding us to be at peace with ourselves, which we cannot be, so long as we continue at eumity with others.'

Sir Walter Scott says tbat he was led write the romance o( "Kenilworth" because the tlrat stanza of Mickle's famous ballad of "Cumnor Hell" haunted bim: "Thgdews of sumtr er night did fall,

The moon sweet regent of the sky, Silvered the towers oi Cumnor Hall, And many an oak that grew thereby#"* Longfellow says that he was, as he thinks, led to write tbe "Wreck of the, Hesperus" because the words "Norman Woe," which were assolciatod with* the disasters at sea, seemed to him so indescribably sad.

FASHIONABLE PREACHING. Steubenville Gaiette. As be was asoending tbe pufplt 'stepa one of the elders buttonholed him to whisper an additional caution: "The liquor dealer has just come into ohurch, and he gives as a lift sometimes. I wish you wtfttld -be' pertlctifor not to allude to tbe whisky business or the temperance question."

Tbe young minister, getting frighten1 to see tbe moral ground thus steadily narrowing before bim. inquired: "Whom or what shall I preach against then?"

The eider's reply came like an air ef trinmpb: "Preach against the Mormons they haven't got a Mend in town."

MORAL COWARDICE. There are people who will never say good-by, or encounter a parting, because they cannot stand it. Now, we do not want scenes to come into fashion, and should be sorry tou see the world turn maudlin or sentimental but still there is a view pf tbis horror of scenes, audi tbisi- extretafr* ebtMtude to avoid, tbem, which seems to us more in ac-

LONGFfLLOWS JTORK, The "Wreck 3f the Hesperus" was written in 1889, at midnight. A violent storm had occurred the night before, tbe distress and disasters at sea had been great, especially along the capes of the New England coast. The papers of the day were full of the news of disaster. The poet was sitting alone in his study late at night, when the vision of tbe wrecked Hesperus came drifting on the disturbed tides of thought into his mind. He went to bed, but could not sleep. He arose and wrote tbe poem, which came into his mind by whole stanzas, finishing tbem just as tbe clock —the old clock on the stairs—was striking three.
