SARA COLERIDGE.
To that portion of our patronizing
friends of the “sterner sex” -who persist
in holding that literary paths are unsuit*-
ed to be trodden by our “softer sex”—
who siill believe that we ought to spend
all of our lives in daily drudgery of
household labors, and that intellectual
pursuits, ex rci necessitate, make women
“fast"'—we know of no better confutation
than the example of Sara Coleridge. We
have before us a beautiful volume of more
than 500 pages entitled “Memoir and
Letters of Sara Coleridge.” It is illus
trated by two fine steel engravings of
Sara Coleridge, one representing her in
early life, the other as an elderly woman. M
Sara Coleridge was the only daughter j the Greek Church was cold and
of Rev. Samuel Taylor Coleridge the ! and that she only now knew what it was
eminent litterateur of the earlier portion j to be really a Christian,
of the present centurv. Sara was bom | Prinooao G., another Russian Ortho
in 1802. and died in i852. She was the ; <h>x lady, and the mother of two children.
A RUSSIAN REVIVAL*
1 g- JR v W
What an English Lord is Doing
Among the Muscovite Ladies.
The novel religious excitement among
the ladies of St. Petersburg, moused by
the preaching of the English Lord Rail-
stock, lias elicited the following remarks
from the. (Jeothdanine, 'a fashion Ale
Russian journal:
It is well known that in Southern
Russia whole villages have been lately
embracing Protestantism, and that a
seminary is forming at Berlin for the pur
pose of teaching German Protestant
clergymen the Russian language, and
educating them to act as missionaries
among ns. Worse than this, ‘there is
Countess M.. a Russian Orthodox lady,
and the mother of four children, who the
other day told Lord Radstock that she
had only learnt to love Christ from his
exposition of the Anglican doctrine, that
stiff,
wife, and the widow of her cousin Henry
Nelson Coleridge, and well sustained her
family name by important contributions
to literature.
Yet throughout her entire career,
throughout her familial- walk with that
immortal literary coterie of which her
father formed a conspicuous figure. Sara
Coleridge maintained a retiring delicacy
of character, a supreme modesty of de
portment wholly feminine, and in striking
contrast with the few “literary women
of later times who aspire to literary re
novvn as much from “assumaoy of merit,
masculine effrontery, and playing trum
peters of their own fame, as from any
real merit in their writings. A contem
porary says of her, “ The features were
perfectly shaped, delicate, and the com
plexion also delicate, but not wanting in
color. The general effect was that of
gentleness, I may say of composure even
to stillness.” Another remarks “With
all her high literary powers, she was ut
terly unlike the mass of those called ‘lit
erary persons. We know many women
who are authors in our day who are as
thoroughly and modestly feminine as
Sara Coleridge ever was.
Of her first published work—a transla
tion of a Latin account of an Equestrian
People of Paraguay which appeal ed in
1822—her father says “ My dear daugh
ter's translation of this book is unsur
passed for pure Mother English. - —
Phantasmion, her next book, the London
Quarterly Review declared “a Faiiy
Tale unique, pure as crystal in diction,
tinted like opal with the hues of ever-
springing sunlit fancy.”
But we recall our pen to the exquisite
volume before us : The pictures she gives
in these letters of the literary coterie in
which she moved are most interesting.—
Says a learned writer, “ The Letters of
Sara Coleridge resemble learned essays,
and savor much more of critical acumen
than of the graceful sparkle which is the
usual characteristic of woman's corre-
spondence.” They embrace a wide range
of topics of undimini.shing interest to
all cultivated people, and the volume is
better relished in proportion as the read
ers of it are better people, while all may
be instructed and improved by its charm
ing pages. It is edited by the daughter
of Sara Coleridge, and is published by
Harper and Brothers, Franklin Square,
New York.
GEORGE ELIOT.
The celebrated novelist who writes un
der the literary name of ‘George Eliot”
—a masculine name, although she is of
the softer sex—may fairly be placed at
the very head of the living, English wri
ters of fiction.
Her last, and greatest, novel lies be
fore us—“.1riddle march'—in two vol
umes, brought out in the best style of
I >ook manufacture by Messrs. Harper and
Brothers of New York. We have before
us. also, an elaborate and critical review
of these volumes, and incidentally of the
other productions of this great genius,
from the powerful pen of Dr. A. T.
Bledsoe in his “Southern Review” of St.
Louis. A careful perusal of the review
shows how thoroughly the writer has ap.
predated the very uncommon merits of
•Middlemarch.and of its writer in her other
productions—the Reverend Doctor's
tide being entitled, in fact. “The genius
of George Eliot.”
As expressive of our own opinions, we
transfer to our columns the following
tracts from Dr. Bledsoe s Review :
“Her novels are not favorites of young,
ardent souls untouched by life's troubles,
and unchastened by its discipline. It is
only suffering, and suffering which has
been a discipline, that can attune a soul
to respond to the vibrations of her mu
sic. The story in her books is like the
narration of real life, the incidents are al
ways subordinate to the results. The
progress which wo follow, with ever in
creasing interest, is the progress of s
soul toward perfection, not the progress
of a plot toward completion. The issues
are moral issues; the crises, spiritual cri
ses; and the culmination of interest con
sists, not in some well-laid scene crowned
with success, or some happy marriage
consummated, but in the victory of a noble
soul over the power of darkness. The
happiness which is reached is of that deep,
sure nature which can be raffled only on
the surface by any of earth's disappoint
ments, trials or sufferings.”
Again :
“The whole meaning and interest of
Middlemarch is spiritual It is the
growth of a soul out of the crudities and
illusions of youth into a beautiful, round'
ed womanhood. The heroine goes through
an experience which could find its coun
terpart more easily in red life than in
fiction. Her discipline is not one of
treachery and cruelty, and persecution,
but the daily wealing discipline to an
eager soul of missing the work she is
longing to do, as well as the help and
sympathy she needs in hc-r effort to live a
high and noble life.”
It is idle for the good to declaim
against “novel reading.” The taste for
fiction is universal, and nine tenths of the
reading of our day (outside of daily news
papers where “fact” is often greatly
blended with “fiction” whenever it is not
“stranger,’ - undiluted) is in the domain
of romance. But the romances and nov-'
els which everybody reads arc wisely
adopted by many great and good writers
as the channel through which wholesome
lessons, purifying doctrines, ennobling
impressions, are conveyed to the hearts of
millions far more surely than if pub forth
iu sermons or moral essays, so-called.
That evil works of fictions also exist is a
fact which should only impress on us
more forcibly the duty of commending
those which truly battle for the cause of
human good. Indeed from the Parables
of old down to the present day, the es
sence of Truth has often been garmented
in tempting habiliments of story and of
song that its nakedness might not turn
weak minds, away from contemplating it
Miss Morality is often a prude with a
very weak stomach. We repeat our
str ongest commendation of Middlemarch,
and this particular edition of it, distin
guished for its good readable typography.

•NLT A SSEIE * ATLANTA
I say, said a rough fellow to a fop
with conspicuous bow-legs, “I say, don\
you have to have your pantaloons cat
vith a circular eawT
after attending Lord Radstock’s Bible
class, has been heard to exclaim, “I only
now know wliat the religion of Christ
really is.” “My deal- Lord, O pray teach
me to love Christ. Tell me, my dear
Lord Radstock, how to make the necessa
ry and proper distinction between the
love I feel for my husband and the love I
owe to Christ.” These words liave recent
ly fallen from the lips of Princess D.,
likewise an Orthodox lady, and the moth
er of four children. The above few au
thentic utterances will give the reader an
idea of the religious condition of St.
Petersburg society early in the year 1874.
Balls are forgotten, and fine dresses
discarded, the fair owners having taken
to loving Christ and receiving religious
instruction from a modem English apos
tle. Even the male portion of our fash*
ionable society is beginning to be affected
with a predilection for Protestantism.
Lord Radstock is a man of forty, who,
in a fit of religious enthusiasm, bestowed
his whole fortune upon the poor, devo
ting himself to the spread of Christianity
among the upper classes. He has lived
much on the Continent, and made con
verts chiefly among Russians staying
abroad. Encouraged by his success
among our traveling countrymen, he has
now come to this capital, and is desirous
of converting its inhabitants to Christian
ity. Since he has been at St. Petersburg
ho has daily received ten or twelve invi
tations to come and hold forth in aristo
cratic saloons on the doctrines of Christ.
He has also been preaching in the Amer
ican Church, delighting a numerous
female audience by sermons on Protes
tant truth, delivered in the French and
English languages. Wherever he shows
himself at public or private meetings,
our ladies entreat him to teach them how
to love Jesus.
To be an eye-witness of one of these
assemblies opens the mind to a good deal.
At an early hour the room is filled to
overflowing with princesses and coun
tesses. They are all clad in black or
gray, are accompanied by their little
children, and hunger and thirst after
the spiritual food they have come to re
ceive. Lord Radstock first kneels down
with his back to the assembly, entreating
Christ to inspire him with fitting words.
Then rising and turning round, he says,
“Let us pray,” an injunction which is
immediately obeyed by all present. Af
ter tliis he opens the Bible, reading the
first text upon which his eye happens to
fall, and commenting upon it in eloquent
and impressive language.
The ladies are gradually excited to the
highest pitch of religious enthusiasm.
As they sit weeping before him, they
resemble so many heathen women admit
ted to the first knowledge of Christ by
the powerful teachings of St. Paul The
close of the discourse is marked by loud
sobbings. The* fair devotees rise from
their seats, and crowding round the evan
gelist lord" thank him in passionate terms
for showing them the way of salvation
and directing them and their children in
to the paths of peace.
A DEATH BED INTERVIEW BY
TELEGRAPH.
The Australian overland telegraph ex
tends for 1,900 miles across the great
wastes of Australia, from Adelaide on the
South to Port Danvin on the North.
The stations are few and far apart, and
the line is consequently greatly exposed
to attacks from the natives, who pull the
wire down, and cut away great quantities
of it for the purpose of arming the points
of their spears. They also smash the
porcelain insulators and use the sharp
edged pieces to scrape their spear blades
into shape. Each station is a small fort
in itself, at which six men reside.
Barrow creek is 1,200 miles from Ade
laide and 700 miles from Port Darwin,
while it is in the midst of a district thick
ly peopled with blacks. On the evening
of Sunday, Feb. 22, all the men of this
station were lying out of doors smoking,
when they were suddenly attacked from
the eastern corner of the building by a
large body of natives, who speared Mr.
Stapleton, the master. As the English
men had left their arms inside, they made
a rush for the entrance, but they were
driven back by a shower of spears, which
wounded two of them. Finding their
retreat cut off. they ran around the build
ing in the hope that the natives would
follow them, and so be drawn away from
the doorway. Happily for them the
natives gave chase; and thus, when the
poor fellows came round again to the
front of the house, they found the door un
guarded. One, however, was fatally
wounded as he ran. They an once seized
their rifles, and soon drove the natives
off. They then telegraphed to Adelaide
news of what had happened, and Dr.
Gosse, one of the Adelaide surgeons, did
all that a surgeon can do by prescription
and advice for patients who are 1,200
miles away.. Poor M$. Stapleton was
beyond cme, but he and bis wife, who
was living at Adelaide, 1,200 miles away,
were able to exchange a few parting
words. Dr. Gosse had to insist that the
wounded men should be kept awake all
night, for fear their flesh might have been
poisoned by the spears. Three days later
Mr. Flint, the wounded operator, sent the
following message: “At one p. m. na
tives attempted to surround station.
Three shots fired, killing one native. Fires
all round station. Expect another attack.
Strict guard kept. Please hurry relief.”
Happily relief was near at hand, for five
teamsters and their superintendent were
within a few hours of Barrow’s Creek.
Moreover Mr. Tucker, the station master
at another creek, “Whb had been traveling
southward along the line, yesterday at
tached his pocket instrument to the wire
at Dixon’s Creek, and spoke Mr. Todd,
the superintendent at Adelaide.” Mr.
Tucker and the five men who w ere with
him were ordered to proceed with all
despatch to Barrow’s Creek, where they
relieved the little garrison.

When you write for publication it may
be a really perceptible assistance to know
something about what you are writing—
at least for the man of ordinary capacity.
Genius naturally flaps its wings on peaks
of fancy and screams at facts. If this be
so and so we think it be, a writer in The
Albany Laic Journal ought n’t to be so
unreasonable as he is. He is indignant
because, in modern light literature, aus
thora make law and lawyers do absurdi
ties unheard of in real courts. His cen
sures open a question as to the object of
novels. Are they intended to please or to
instruct, or to at once do both? If they
are simply for amusement, where’s the
sense in abusing them for lack of accuracy
in practical in formation, when that lack
evolves some incident in a particularly
interesting maimer? Wliat are facts to
“The Bewildered Bandit, or the Hag of the
Himalayas?” Though Genius may have no
use for them, we are happy to say that
divers good novelists give special atten
tion to legal details in their work. For
one, Charles Reade is said to pay for
briefs from competent lawyers when he
finds it necessary to bring law into his
stories.
