Site jtoenjer; JACKSON & BELL. COMPANY. SUNDAY, MAY 2, 1897. OBRERVANDA. Professor: William P. Trent- Is a na- "University of the: South, (Episcopal), at Sewanee, Tenn. He is beyond fair question a man of literary gifts, and !a writer of much force and eloquence. He is pernapa equal to any author now - living: of southern birth in the realm -of letters, with the exception of two novelists, Miss Murfree and James JLane Allen. He ; lias scored two lit erary, successes in books his life of "William Gilmore Simms, and his book just i issued "Southern . talesmen of the Old School." We have read neith er, and our knowledge of the young -and 'brilliant author is limited to crit icisms and an essay or two we have read in a magazine. His work on Simms, a gifted son of South Carolina, save offence to the friends of the novel ist and to many who are of the south. His 'new book, in which he essays to discuss Washington, Jefferson, Ran dolph, Calhoun, Stephens, Toombs and Jefferson Davis, will prove offensive to all genuine states rights men to all who stood faithfully by the south In the great upheaval and believed in the it x. n l -sacreaness ot its cause 10 au wnu venerate Jefferson and Calhoun and , Davis.

'that it la very finely written that there are elo quent passages and so on. It gives .some of his views that will impress most.men of the south as rather sin gular. For instance, the reviewer says:. "He is certainly impartial. He depicts the southern president (Davis) as an able, but not a great man; an honest and high minded, but mistaken man; as an ill-starred leader of a cause justly foredoomed to failure." Again, quoting Trent: -"Jefferson Da vis lost his imaginary country at Ap pomattox, just where the new genera tion of southerners have found a-real one." Doubtless the professor is one i 1 1 t B iU KT. C V." Who rejoice in the defeat of the south and its precious cause. He onght to Tollow Cable's example and hie him to lands where such "patriots" are held In high favor. This young teacher and author holds that Calhoun is rather a "small potato," we suppose, xor ne says lie is "shadowy" and his reasoning J t. J 1 1 t, tI nn - Tft4SpfljtOA . IllgUlIIia.1 1SU. lie UlttUUO ucuciowu J3avls as "the evil genius" of Presi dent Pierce. We take these few opin ions from the review that reproduces them. The curious thing is that the critic, doubtless a northern man, con troverts some of Trent's dicta, and iby - way of contrast copies from a-northern work by Professor Burgess, of Colum bia University, entitled "The Middle Period, 1817-1858:" Professor Burgess condemns Garrison's methods, John Brown in Kansas as guilty of a "com mon crime of the blackest sort," and . says Secretary Jefferson Davis showed himself "a remarkably upright man." Professor Burgess fought the south with his musket. He says he never saw a slave. But his book is broad and free from acute sectarianism. The reviewer says Burgess ""leans toward what is commonly regarded as the . southern side." Trent has conciliated the reading and applauding north by abusing his own folks and misappre- Miendiner the great issues involved in the second war for independence. Trent abuses Tyler and Calhoun, - while Burgess approves of their course. Instead of slandering Davis as the - "evil genius" of Pierce, the northern professor says that the attitude of Pierce and Davis was "honorable and oraiseworthy." and to prove it cites Governor Robinson. Trent, seems to be prejudiced and something ignorant.- The reviewer says, and, it is very sig nificant, and the informed will under stand its precise import:-"In each of the instances I have noted the north ern writer expresses an independent judgment Avhile the southern writer follows Professor Von- Hoist. As a foreigner, this historian should be fairly impartial; in fact he is devotedly - abolitionist." Years ago it was our duty and pleasure to criticize some of the political views of the "German professor at Chicago; He belongs to the extrem est school of northern politicians. He is the teacher and guide of this ambi tious and bold southern writer. Hence; we are not surprised to be told by the reviewer that Trent is "less interesting in the legal aspects of the long sectional ,-struggle that preceded the civil war, and is, therefore, less in sympathy on the intellectual side" mark that "with the southern protagonists, who had to fight, for the most part, on pure ly legal terms." Hence, while Trent ould not understand Calhoun and Da vis, Professor Burgess comprehends both, and holds that Calhoun was "concrete and intelligible an acute barrister who stands firmly on his construction of the law that is already made, and ignores or resists the law that is in the making." These are the . expressions of the reviewer, we sup pose, condensing the northern- writer's view. The reviewer says the southern er shows "a lack of interest in consti tutional law," and ascribes It to a certain flabbiness : in his political sci ence for iaw furnishes tf the ' oseeoua Tstructure of that science." He thinks Trent is "a trifle vague." He shows it by citations. Even the grreat Jefferson somehow fails to attract the south erner while he professes great admira tion. The reviewer says he has "au dacity and U makes him interesting." To show his marvellous sagacity and sense of humor, he says that "Calhoun would have been saved from "many a "blunder nad he been able to speak dis respectfully of the equator or. of South Carolina." He steals a witticism of Sydney :Smith to barb his Parthian arrow. Calhoun was one of the pur est of all American statesmen and 'be yond airdoubt one of the greaest. His speeches not only contain many max ims of political wisdom, but great pre-, science. He foretold much- that has come to pass. He was one of the fore most of Americans, out to the young professor in Tennessee he was merely a "shadowy" sort of 'statesman with out force or great personality a man who had the nightmare when he rea soned. And this passes for insight, for wisdom, for judgment. Quiller Couch, the English novelist and critic, is now In charge of a de partment in the Pall Mall Magazine, of London. He is making, a fine success of It. He is a very bright man, full of ideas and dash, with real grace of touch and wit with it. He has writ ten two or. three novels full of life, incident and - interest. He also pub lished not long ago a volume of criti cisms, but this We have not seen. While new books are extraordinarily high, and beyond the reach of the poor scholars, who indulge "plain living and high thinking," there isone blessed comfort, the great writers the stand ard authors of the world of all nations, are easy of access and can be brought for comparatively small sums. In England where "books are enormously high for the new, the old books are very cheap. Lately the best literature Scott, Goldsmith, Dickens, Lytton, and other standard authors, can be bought "creditably printed" for two cents a volume, bound in ' stiff covers. Think of that. It is a freat waste of opportunity and toil to read latter-day books to the neglect, of the great au thors ' :: "The dead and sceptered who still rule sovereigns Our spirits from their urns." There is a new southern "poet" and his name is J Godon Coogler, of Colum bia, S. C- It is his fifth volume. It is "purely original verse." Here is a sam ple: . : -. - - ' ' - From early youth to the frost of age Man's days have been a mixture Of all that constitutes in life A dark and gloomy picture." He may rival that Tennessee woman, name, forgotten, who wrote a "Cen tennial Poem" of great length. We re ceived a copy. It overcame us so we failed to write about it. Writing verse and producing poetry are very different callings and actions. If people knew better what is poetry, there would 1e much less verse written.

ItKLIGIOUS EDITORIALS FOR SUNDAl.- In the Gospel of Matthew we learn how cunning Herod was. In 2:8 we read that he sent the wise men to Bethlehem telling them: "GoV Sand search diligently for Jesus, and when ye have found Him, bring me: word, that I may come and worship Him also." Those last three words show how" crafty and dissembling he was ! Bent on murdering In Holy Innocent, and with heart filled with hatred, he pretends he really means kindness, af fection, even worship. . The sinful heart is deceitful above all things and des perately wicked as the Bible says. . In all times it seeks to compass its vile and desperate ends by deceit and lying, or even like cruel Herod, under the garb of pietyj Human nature has not chang with the rolling years. ' Turn to the Saviour, then, in lowly style; Ask for forgiveness, all thy sins display, Cling to the cross in faith weep, trem ble, praise, and pray. Dean Alford. - The able editor one of the ablest we think in the south and with no equal we know of among the editors in his own religious body Rev. Dr. Hoss, said recently, in his paper, the organ of all southern Methodism, just what is needed to be understood and remem bered. He wrote this: "No gentleman will write an anony mous letter. The perfomance is utterly contemptible as it cannot be the thought or imagination of an honora ble and self-respecting man. It implies on the one. hand deep-seated malice, and, on the other, a cringing coward ice that is ever afraid to say his say openly. The moral 'bushwhacker' who always shoots from under cover is a nuisance not to" be tolerated by society. When discovered he should be subject ed to an ostracism worse than impris onment or exile." - " Well said and well deserved. We do not know a more contemptible specimen of fallen humanity than such an in grate, such a Pariah, such a social out cast. He would shoot his poisoned ar row without responsibility either to God or man, hoping to bring down his ad versary without possible danger to himself. But God sees this moral cow ard and his "sin" will be certain "to find him out" Such a fellow is simp ly committing moral suicide. The mem ory, of such an one will bring" to him scorpion ? stings.7 , Some one has said that "memory-makes half of life's heavens ' and seventy-five per cent, of its hells." . A strange special notice appeared lately In The Western Christian Advo cate. It Is too peculiar to be overlook ed. Here It is: "A pastor in one of the best, confer ences in Iowa, and who has a $1,000 charge," wishes to exchange charges with some brother in Ohio. Address Rev. O. J. Simmons, Stockton, 111." This Is news this way. Up north Methodists may trade their circuits or stations but "down south" they would be quickly descipllned. Advertisements of this kind are a disgrace to church. any The evangelists multiply. They are of two kinds good and bad. 'We do not know that the number of the vul gar, profane and blasphemous sort in creases, but the foremost of that type keep up their popularity and draw the great crowds when more respectable, pious and reverent divines who evan gelize do not thus attract. Coarseness, indecencies, profanities are enjoyed and laughed at, and men hasten nightly to hear the ribald "vulgarians" whe'n de corous, consecrated, able evangelists would attract one-fourth the crowd. Rev. Dr. Buckley of The New York Christian Advocate, says of this class of blaspheming evangelists: "The men who can use the word 'hell. to make a laugh, or put forward the Day of Judgment as the background of a roaring farce, who can deliver whole sale slanders worded in such a way as to imply that all earnest pastors who shrink from endorsing his grossness are in the gall of bitterness and the bonds of iniquity, and who can traduce whole denominations because of the conduct of some of their nominal members, bears the same relation" to the Chris tian ministry that the performances of clowns do to the serious orator. The crowds that such men draw are at tracted only in part because they pro fess to preach the; Christian religion, and chiefly by the same elements that would support a circus. It is a matter of grave doubt whether there ever was an evangelist in whose proceedings solemnity did not predominate who di rectly or indirectly wrought as much good as harm to Christianity." Spring is full of terrors to all whose constitution is not able to resist the sudden changes of temperature and other insalubrities of the season. To put the system in condition to overcome these evils, nothing is so effective as Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Take it now. - HOME F OLKS. Let us all rejoice that the probability oft having the legislators save the mark together again at Raleigh is be to have those fellows again in ses sion. No one could 'tell where1 their blunders and devilishness would end. "It is better to bear the ills -we have than to fly to those we know not of." This is from memory and may "not be exact. : So don't write about it. The Sanf ord Express noting our ex planation as to the base ball (which we never warred upon) adds this: ' "The Messenger handles irony well and often it is hard to tell whether it' is in earnest or merely jesting. This is a gift that very few possess. Some times the too free use of it gets one into trouble and causes him to regret that he employed it." If it will read our paragraph careful ly we think it will see it was not really so obscure as to be taken seriously. We know H is best to write at the bottom "This is sarcasm," or "This is irony," but we did not suppose in that particu lar instance it was needed. We received a pleasant letter from .that really eloquent and gifted North Carolinian and old friend, from San Francisco, who has been doing famous work since1 he left his native state now nearly a quarter of a century ago. After ten years absence he was re turned to the charge of the leading Methodist church in the fine city of the Pacific -slope. He found great changes, almost a new congregation. But they received him with great warmth and demonstration. When he left this state he was thin, not weighing, we suppose, more than 130 pounds. Now he is in oerfect health ' and weighs 180 pounas. ne ana Dr. J onn uanna, a Virginian, we believe, and Bishop Fitz gerald (another 'North Carolinian) born in Guilford; probably, are the' three greatest gifts eastern Methodism . has contributed to the Pacific states. Dr. Riddick is an eastern man, but we are not certain as to locality, but of Hert ford county probably. : ?, 'North Carolinians like' General Jas. H. Lane, who commanded a North Car olina brigade, winning fame for him self and honors for the state that con fided in him. A few days ago in Math ews county, Va., his native state, six portraits of distinguished sons of the county were unveiled with due ceremo nies at the court house. One also of Jefferson Davis. An account in a communication in The Richmond Dis patch says: - "The picture of General James H. Lane was unveiled by 'Miss Susie Sears. daughter of Captain R. T. Sears, and presented by his brother, 'Dr.-Thomas B. Lane, who -gave a "brief sketch of his distinguished, brother. From major of the First regiment of North Carolina volunteers, he rose rapidly to brigadier general in H62, and this when most of the general ifflcers were grad uates of West Point, and he only 28 J ,n MTWm f a i tit TTftwm m i Send for circular.

'And never was there braver, band, or one with braver -chief.' Wounded twice, he still led his men to victory." Remember it was a North Carolina brigade of which it is said: "And never was there a braver band." Captain Octavius Wiggins, of this city, was one of General Lane's trusted soldiers.
