"Mr. Clemens's humor is of such a universal and comprehensive character that it is very difficult to say in what Its peculiarity consists. His eminent forerunner, Artemus Ward, had a certain literary cachet which Mr. Clemens lacks. His sketches were sketches of American life and manners, grotesque and absurd as you please, but still to say that Artemus Ward described life as he found it; having a distinctly national flavor. It is hardly possible but there was a definite literary relation between life as he saw it around him and what he wrote, which everybody recognized in his books. Mr. Clemens's humor, on which he uses as a vehicle for it, are of no nationality. the other hand, is American enough, but his inventions, There is a kind of monstrosity about them which we remember in no other writer,-a wild extravagance which is not simply that of exaggeration."-Nation, xxxv. 119. "Mark Twain is American pure and simple. To the groundwork, already archaic and obsolete to him, of the eastern mother-land he owes but the rudiments, the speech he has to write; in his turn of art, his literary methods and aims, his intellectual habit and temper, he is as distinctly national as the fourth of July itself."-Ath., No. 2739.

Phila., Clemens, Samuel Langhorne, ("Mark Twain,") [ante, vol. iii., TWAIN, MARK, add.,] b. 1835, at Florida, Monroe Co., Mo., was apprenticed to a printer at the age of thirteen, and, after working at that trade in different cities, became a pilot on the Mississippi river steamboats in 1851. Ten years later he went to Nevada, where he edited a paper, and he subsequently joined with Bret Harte in editing The Californian, and began to deliver humorous lectures with great success. In 1872 he settled in Hartford, Conn., where he has since resided. In 1884 he established in New York the subscription-book-publishing house of C. L. Webster & Co., which published General Grant's "Memoirs of the Civil War." Mr. Clemens is said to have taken the pseudonyme by which he is so universally known from the recollection of his experience as a pilot, the phrase "mark twain"-i.e., "mark two fathoms"-being used in taking soundings on the Mississippi. He has been a frequent contributor to periodicals, and his story The Gilded Age, written in conjunction with Charles Dudley Waruer, had great success as a play, with John T. Raymond as Col. Sellers.

Clifford, William Kingdon, 1845-1879, b. at Exeter, Eng.; exhibited as a child unusual precocity of mind. He was sent to school in Exeter, and in 1860 to King's College, London, where he distinguished himself in classical as well as in mathematical studies. In 1863 he entered Trinity College, Cambridge, where his extraordinary mathematical powers were at once recognized. He displayed athletic as well as intellectual prowess, and, with a constitution and build naturally slight, was active to excess in gymnastic exercises. He was made a Fellow of Trinity in 1868, and in 1871 became professor of applied mathematics in University College, London. In 1874 he was elected Fellow of the Royal Society. His lectures delivered before various scientific and philosophic societies 1872-75 had a marked success, being at once original and popular. The highest hopes were entertained of him in scientific circles, but his health, always delicate, broke down under the severe physical and intellectual strain to which, in his eager

activity, he had subjected it, and he died of consumption at Madeira. 1. Elements of Dynamic: an Introduction to the Study of Motion and Rest in Solid and Fluid Bodies, Lon., 1878, 8vo.

Clifford in tended to remodel them into a definite statement of his views on philosophical and other subjects, to be called The Creed of Science.'... The whole book is eloquent with the fervour of an enthusiast who threw himself into the pursuit of truth in the firm belief that therein lies the only hope of good for that humanity which he loved so passionately. It is an eloquence chastened by an extraordinary simplicity of style and a resolute seeking after clearness, but it is not the less effective for that."-Sat. Rev.,

xlviii. 240.

[blocks in formation]

Never was an intenser illustration than is spread out in these pages of the chaotic state of our contemporary thinking, or a creed on the whole less fit to be proclaimed to the people as the matured and classified result of scientific thought. There are, of course, exquisitely simple and vivid statements of particular physical theories."-Nation, xxix. 312.

"Its use will be found in giving the mathematician an increased interest in his own work, rather than in opening up the mysteries of that work to the outside world, though the explanations are so fundamental that the non-mathematician. if only he have good natural faculty in that line, may peruse it with advantage."-Ath., No. 3011.

"He has left his mark on contemporary English thought and sentiment, and his writings, fragmentary though they are, may probably carry some bright flashes of insight to other generations than our own."-JAMES SULLY: Acad., xvii. 134.

"As a mathematical writer Clifford was marked by a keen power of imagination, rich in its suggestions of new lines of thought and discovery: he was a standing example of the fact that the true man of science, especially the mathematician, is the man of speculation, of tested theory, of keen, albeit disciplined, imagination."—LESLIE STEPHEN: Dict. of Nat.
