Mr. Stedman's poem of 1867 1s to-day no fiction, Great Pan is not dead, “Music waves eternal wands,’ and above the fierce howling of buils and and bears, “together drawn. From Jauucey court and sew street alley,” Pan’s pipe is heard making sweet music, giving the lie to those sneering souls that deny the posai- bility of uniting trade and art, They forget that Florentine and Venetian art was founded upon commerce. They forget that Shakespeare meant business when he wrote poetry, ‘Ihey do not realize that seclusion trom tne world is ignorance of life, and what signifies art if it be not the trans- figuration of humanity? The exposition of senti- mentality that has come upon the age must puss away. “The man of genius feels that literature has become too much a craft by itself No man should live by or for his pen. Writ.ng is worthless, except as the record of life; and no great man ever was satisfied thus to express all his being. Hts book should be only an indication of himseif. The obelisk should point to a scene of conquest, In the present state of d.vision of labor the literary man finds himself condemned to be nothing else, Does he write a good book? It 1s not received as evidence of nis ability to live and act, but rather the reverse, * * * We have the swordsman, the statesman, the pen- man; butit is not consiiered that the same mind which can rule the destiny of a poem may as well that of an army or an empire. Yet surely it should be so. The scientific man may need seclusion from the common affairs of lle, for he has his materials before him; but the man of letters must seek them in life, and he who cannot act will but im- periectly appreciate action, The literary man is imvatient of being set apart. He feels that monks and troubadours, though in a similar position, were brought into more healthy connection with man and nature tLan he who is supposed to look at them merely to write them down.” True in 1841, when Margaret Fuller wrote thus for that buried receptacle of many jewels, the Dial, it is almost as true to-day. If Mrs. Browning’s noblest work, “Aurora Leigh,” betrays Jaults as a novel it is because, with all her inspiration, she could not bring the actual world witnin the four walls of her sick room. If George Eliot looks at life with mor- bid though realistic eyes it is because she shrinks from contact with her kind. If Tenny- s0n’s muse has never sung the glorious songs of universal freedom it is because tne Court Poet hides himself away from the people. If Shakespeare, if Balzac, if George Sand are— though different—universal in their gentus it is because of protound experience. Therefore, when actors write plays, when an English colonel describes “The Battle of Dorking” with the vivid- ness of Defoe; when General Lew Wallace writes a novel that sends the London Atheneum into ecstacies of delight; when a stockbroker proves his rank to be enrolled among the best of American poets, we see the dawn of a more virile literatnre and rejoic The New York Stock Exchange is to be congratu- lated upon the possession of a poet, for Mr, Sted- man is truly a poet in temperament and tn deed. Pan is not less Pan for filling his quivering reeds in Wall street, To touch the world at many points ig to be more, not less; and though we adinire the scholarin “Penelope,” ‘‘Hylas,’ and “Alectryon,”” we have greater sympathy with the man who, be- ginning his career by ¢leverly perpetuating “Tne Diamond Wedding’ and~ sighing for the days of Hero and Leander, whon Love was love and better than money; The slyer the thelt the sweeter the honey; ..

They die, they wither; through and through their wavering lines are rent. But these are gailant, desperate men, of our own race and land, Who charge anew, and welcome death, and fight us hand to band, Vain, vain, give Way—as well ye may—the crimson die 18 cast! Their bravest leaders bite the dust, their strength is falling fast; They yield, they turn, they fly the field; we smite them as they run, Their arms, their colors are our spoil: the furious fight 18 done, Acton re plain we follow far and backward push e tray: Cheer, cheer, the grand old army at last has won ‘the day! Mr, Stedman owed much of his earlier popularity to the rough hewn yerse of “Old Brown,” aad he was a true prophet who in November, 1859, ap- pealed with eloquent passion to the South in be- half of “the gamest man Henry Wise ever saw :"— But, Virginians don’t do it! for I tell you that the flagon, Filled with blood of Old Brown's offspring, was first poured by Southern hands ; And each drop trom Old Brown's life-veins, like the red gore of the dragon, May spring up & vengeful tury, hissing through jou jave-worn lands! And Old Brown—Osawatomle Brown— May trouble you more than ever when you've nailed his cofin down, There is one verse in this poem, however, to which we take eXception on the score of truth. Beyond all other traits John Brown possessed sim- piicity and an incapacity for bravado. He was brave without knowing it; hence it would have been impossible for him to boast of his immortality in history, as Stedman's lines infer:— And he swore @ feariul oath, Wy the name of the Almighty, He would hunt this ravening evil that had scathed and torn him 80; He would seize tt by the vitals; he would crush it day and night; he Would eo pursue its footsteps, so return it blow for blow, ‘That Old Brown— Osawatomie Brown— Should be a name to swear by, in backwoode or in town. Will not the poet's sober second thought acknowl- edge that we are right in defending John Brown from a charge unworthy of his fervid Christianity; areligion somewhat sterner than that conferred in Stedman’s “Protest of Faith,” which might have been read with advantage before the Eyan- | @elloa! Alliance that recenity spit -city for the giory or Goa ¢ “Oh, belleve with me, For every instinct in these hoarts of ours A full fruition hastema, Ub, believe That promise greater than our greatest trust And loitiest aspiration! ‘Teil tliy iriend “Beside my grave: he did the best ue could, With earnest spirit polishing the lens in this strawd, |, By which ue took the heavens in bis ken, And throuyh the empyrean sought tor God; He caught, or thought he caught, from time 0 time, Bright gitmpses of the infinite, on which He ied in raptarous and quiet joy, That helped nim keep a hoat of troubles down.

Heaven lies above us: may we find him there Beside the waters still, and crowned with palms!’ Unlike some patriots who belteve in freedom for themselves’ and despotism for tue rest of the world, Mr. Stedman's heart beats no less quickly for Cuba than for his own land, and he asks:— “Ig it paught’? Is it naught That the south wind br.ogs her wail to our snore, That the spotlers compass our desolate sister? Is it Daught y Must we say to her, ‘>trive no more,’ ee the lips wherewith we loved aud kissed ert With the mocking lips wherewith we said, ‘Thou art the dearest and tairest to us Of all the daughters the sea hath brea, Of all green-girdied isies that woo us! Is it naught ?”" How long must we wait for a response worthy Of a generous nation? That Mr. Stedman is capable of sustained effort is seqn in “The Blameless Prince,” of which the art is pure ana the pretty story told witn tender grace. But as we frequently preter the painter’s sketch to his most elaborate painting, so do we give the preference to Mr, Stedman's lyrics, In them we find spontaneous emotion. Their rhythm makes music to the heart as well as to the head, and the sympathetic personality of the poet is felt. We al- most hear the melody to which they might flow. They sing themselves and make us wish that they might be sung by more palpable voices. “The Singer,’ “Che Sleigh Ride,” “The Cavalry Song” in ‘Alice of Mon- mouth,” ‘Toujours Amour,” “The Tryst,” “At Twilight” and an “Autumn Song” are worthy of the best composer. Gounod would do them justice ; but it is doubtful whether he or any one else could express the subtlety of the “Stanzas for Music,” taken from a drama not yet published :— Thou art mine, thou hast given thy word; Close, close in my arms thon art clinging: Alone ior my ear thou art singing A song whica no stranger hath heard: But alar fiom me yet, itke a bird, Tuy soul, in some region unstirred, On its mystical circle is winging. Thou art mine, I have made thee mine own; Henceforth we are mingied forever: : But in vain, all in vain, | eudeavor— Though round thee my garlands are thrown, And thon yieldest thy lips and thy zonc— To master the spell that alone My hoid on thy being can sever. Thou art mine, thou hast come unto me! But thy soul, when | strive to be near it-— The innermost jold ot thy spirit— Is as far from my grasp, 1s as tree, As the stars from the mountain tops be, As the pearl in the depths of the sea From the purtionless ring that would wear it, No one who has read the “Dartmouth Ode,” so recently delivered, need be told that Mr. Stedman is master of his subject. A tear is the only criticism we care to make on “Laura, My Darling,” and the “Heart of New England,” while the charm. ing translation of ‘Jean Prouvaire’s Song at the Barricade,” and a study on Theocritus, demonstrate an equally quick apprehension o! modern romanticism and Greek idyltics. Nor is the critic’s art unknown to Mr. Stedman. His essays on “that deep-mouthed Bootian, Savage Landor,” and Mrs. Browning are criticisms in the best sense, being no leas generous than just. Prose writer and poct, honest broker and best of friends, Edmund Clarence Stedman is a type ef American that cannot be too warmly cherished. ‘The man is an honor to his country, His work is an honor to the man.

Sika We have more than once congratulated a promi+ nent impresario in this city uporfthe erudition he displayed in not terming iis Sunday concerts sacred. We are obliged w felicitate the Rey. Henry Morgan in displaying his erudition [a totally dif- ferent way. He leaves usin no doubt whatever as to the eminently divine and didactic nature of his Sabbath evening discourses. “Bachelors and Their Follies” is his theme for this evening. This kind of thing will end in a revival, See if it don’t. A good entertainment of its kind is to be enjoyed atthe New Metropolitan Theatre. We cainot in- deed endorse without qualification the managerial proposition that “a mother of a family can ailow her daughter to frequent with confidence.” That depends upon how much confidence the daughter has and what the moral convictions of the mother may be. Bnt doubtless some mothers and daughters do go to the New Metropelitan Theatre without being irretrievably damaged thereby. “Danici Boone,’ at the Bowery theatre, is at once interesting to the patriot, the bootblack and the geologist. One of the most powerful plays on @ national subject ever presented to an American andience is to be enjoyed there, and among the scenic effects is included a picture of the “primeval forests of North Carolina. We heartily concur m the statement of the advertisement, that “lan- guage is inadequate to express the supereminent grandeur of the sublime representation of the great natural curiosity.” The phraseology triumphantly proves the truth of this proposition. Upon a principle simitar to that on which peopie always make a rush for a spot bearing the an- nouncement ‘Positively no admittance,’ the audiences at the Thaatre Comiane are periodically swollen by the advertisement that stars have been engaged for eight or ten times the salary that their services are intrinsically worth, The public likes to fee) jt is helping to make the fortune of a manager who pays prices which, at first sight, look ruinous, Mr. Hart says he pays the Majiltons $800 for eight performances, He must mean $8,000. Supposing their contortions to jast ten minutes, this would be only about $30 % minute cach, which is nov worth mentioning. Mr, Strakosch aunonnces his only Sunday con- cert for this evening. The entertainment wily take place at Wallac We do not voueb for the sanctity of the affair, and neither. we are giad to perceive, does Mr. Strakoseh.
