A LITERARY find of the first impor

tance has been made public by William A. Speck, curator of the Speck collection of Goetheana in the Yale library, in his announcement that he has discovered the author of "Letters of Charlotte," the celebrated imitation of Goethe's "Sorrows of Werther," which has remained anonymous for 150 years. The author's name, W. James, is signed to a letter secured by Mr. Speck from an English bookseller, addressed to Cadell, the famous eighteenth century publisher, who later brought out the "Letters to Charlotte." In it the writer proposes that Cadell publish the book, and suggests haste, as he wishes to return to his home in Hertfordshire.
