. one stanza begins: I see thee ever in my dreams, Karaman! thy hundred hills, thy thousand streams, Karaman, O Karaman! his dreamy existence at Pointe Coupee was rudely broken on April 23, 1861, by the news in the New Orleans Delta of the attack on the troops of the Sixth Massachusetts as they passed through Baltimore on April 19th. The first citizen to fall was a friend and College mate of the poet. Randall's own account of the effect of this news appears in a letter printed in Professor Brander Matthews' pen and Ink: this account excited me greatly. I had long been absent from my native city, and the startling event there inflamed my mind. That night I could not sleep, for my nerves were all unstrung, and I could not dismiss what I had read in the paper from my mind. About midnight I rose, lit a candle, and went to my desk. Some powerful spirit appeared to possess me, and almost involuntarily I proceeded to write the song of my Maryland. I remember that the idea appeared

XXXIV. social superiors. Mr. Brander Matthews lately quoted, at a discussion held in New York as to the working of republican government, an early statement by Lowell, which seems to me to contain a brief epitome of the whole matter, and to be too good to forget. Lowell said (I quote from memory), If it be a good thing for an English duke that he has no social superior, I think it can hardly be bad for an American farmer. It reminded me of a saying by a classmate of mine, so fond of England and so ashamed of his own country that he used to define it as the mission of the United States to vulgarize the whole world, who yet resented being taken too literally in this remark; and would tell a story of the disgusting sycophancy of middle-class Englishmen towards people of rank, contrasting it with the perfect indifference of the average American traveller, unconscious of having a social superior anywhere. But there is an aspect of this social superior question so obvious that I

The year was notable too because it produced Brander Matthews's The philosophy of the Shortstory, a magazine article later expanded into a volume, the first scientific handling of the art of the form since Poe's review of Hawthorne.
