At present.I propose only a few random remarks,: a nh to glean 'some passages here and there concerning her. I have no doubt: as to her place in lit erature, ml take her to be superior to any woman, ancient or. modern, in the royalty ; of her endowments, in the accuracy and profundity . of her leirning, and in her manifold accom plishments. I am ,8ure she is the greatest master of style of any of her sex. To find her superior among the men, you must go lo'the foremost authors who have adorned tho ages." This may appear lo those who arc not entirely fjnniliar with all that she has . wri lien, , as pulling it rather stroug, but her most extravagant and heartiest admirers are those who have - . . - ..I.... studied her works with the greatest attention -ana care:i V ln: have un- lerst ood thel wealih of Sha kspea re, of Danle, of Milton, of Bacon, but those who have read them habitually with : the utmost patience and pro tracted attention? People talk . of those great mental luminaries, but few ever familiarize themselves with their magnificent thoughts. The fic tions of George, Eliot are too great to be merely read: they must be studied. Unless this is done,the reader will find more gratification in works of less breadth and profundity. -u Her, maiden name was Marion C. Evans. - Herather was a dissenting English clergyman. She was born in 1820. She began her ' career; as' a wri ter by prod ucing capital essays and translations j from the German. She was at one time one of the edi tors of the " Westminster Review. She is now married to George Henry Lewes, one of the greatest scholars, thinkers aud writers of Great Britain. She never began her career as a no velist until she had passed her thirty sixth year. She has said: "I wrote reviews for years because I knew too little of human nature to attempt to write a novel." ! As an able critic has said : "She would do nothing if it were not founded- upon ; the solid grounds o f' knowledge and "research.", What a lesson for the hundreds who "rush into print," and who write fic tions as rapidly as an editor dashes off his editorials ordinarily. 3s What conscientiousness !

' Had George Eliot never written a hue she w o u 1 d V t hen have been remarkable as one of. the most learned women of the age. She is mistress of art, literature, science, music and language. As a linguist her powers; are astonishing. Not only is she conversant with many literatures and languages, both mo dern and ancient, but she has studied the - languages themselves from .the philologist's point of view. In science, her studies have extended far into the fields of the remotest speculation, and the. extent of her knowledge ; on such topica is said to be equalled bnlv by t hat of the, savahs of the day. ftlusically t he w rarely:Accomplished. Her power of touch and brilhahcy of ekecution are such that" the plays in a! master 1 y manner the m ost di fiicult music of the severe! classical . scbobi,' while her 'sensibility of nature is such as to : make her enjoyment of' the simplest ballad a pleasure akin to pain. -. . s . ' - . ; "Among novelists it is exceptional to firid this scientific and artistic taste allied to1 the imaginative and creative fancy; ; Goethe arises as al most the only other, figure in litera ture who can be compared to George Eliot in the range or extent of her varied knowledge." f And now let me quote from ano ther American writer, who has i thus far written the. best" essay on her ge hius that I haVe seen. .
