Arnold, George Essayist, Journalist, Poet. Though many details about his early life are in dispute, scholars agree that Arnold was born in New York City and that his father may have been the Reverend George B. Arnold. The family relocated to Illinois and then to Monmouth County, New Jersey where Arnold enjoyed a country upbringing. Though he apprenticed himself to a portrait painter in New York in 1852, Arnold soon determined that literature would be his true calling. His artistic training did, however, aid him in illustrating his own work; he created the caricature of himself as &quot;McArone,&quot; included with his Poems (1886), and a drawing of fellow Pfaff&#039;s regular, sculptor Launt Thompson, which is included in Ferris Greenslet&#039;s &lt;em&gt;The Life of Thomas Bailey Aldrich &lt;/em&gt; (1908). 

As McArone (his most successful of many personages--created for a series in &lt;em&gt;Vanity Fair &lt;/em&gt; in 1860 and continued in the &lt;em&gt;Leader &lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Weekly Review &lt;/em&gt;), Arnold produced a flood of poems, stories, essays, satires, and editorials in the major literary venues of his day, including &lt;em&gt;Harper&#039;s &lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Vanity Fair &lt;/em&gt;, and &lt;em&gt;The Atlantic Monthly &lt;/em&gt;. He also published poetry and books on children&#039;s games. Arnold was &quot;a very clever writer in prose and verse, a regular contributor to the &lt;em&gt;Saturday Press &lt;/em&gt;, and remarkable for his versatility&quot; (Browne 155). He was also &quot;Clapp&#039;s closest friend and protégé&quot; (Miller 37). 

Arnold may have been responsible for Walt Whitman&#039;s defection from Pfaff&#039;s. After an impromptu reading of one of Whitman’s poems, there was discord among his listeners: “The poem Whitman shared that night, however, did not solicit the like-minded accord he had expected. Instead it sparked an unusually heated debate around the table about whether the federal government should continue its war, now that nearly six months had passed without a resounding Union victory” (Genoways 116). During the debate Arnold “rose from his chair and lifted his wine glass” proposing a toast to the success of the South (Genoways 117). The two poets then entered into a heated argument over the issue over Southern rebellion: &quot;They were sitting opposite each other at the table, George [Arnold] was for rebellion and Walt [Whitman] was opposed...words grew hot. Walt warned George to be more guarded in his sentiments. George fired up more and more. Walt passed his &#039;mawler&#039; toward George&#039;s ear. George passed a bottle of claret toward the topknot of the poet&#039;s head. Pfaff made a jump and gave a yell of &#039;Oh! mine gots, mens, what&#039;s you do for a dis?&#039; Clapp broke his black pipe while pulling at Arnold&#039;s coat-tail; Ned Wilkins lost the power of his lungs for five minutes after tugging at the brawny arm of Walt; and we all received a beautiful mixture of rum, claret, and coffee on the knees of our trousers. Everything was soon settled, and Walt and George shook hands, and wondered much that they were so foolish&quot; (qtd. in Lalor 135-136). Emory Halloway suggests that this brawl leads Whitman to distance himself from Pfaff&#039;s (Walt Whitman 157, 193). Years later, Whitman reportedly forgave Arnold, although he never returned to Pfaff&#039;s (Parry 43). 

Like many of his Pfaff&#039;s compatriots, Arnold lived a brief and colorful life. Following suit of fellow Pfaff&#039;s regular Fitz-James O&#039;Brien, Arnold joined the army when the Civil War broke out, but his health failed and he died at his family home in November 1865. His death at such a young age was unfortunate, but not entirely surprising: &quot;From such a temperment [sic] as his, earnest and continued exertion was not to be expected. Like Voiture he trifled life away in pointed phrases and tuneful numbers; but gained a large circle of devoted friends. At three and thirty he slipped out of the World which had been much and little to him, and left behind him many sincere mourners who speak of him still with words of love and moistened eyes&quot; (Browne 155). 

One of these mourning friends, artist Elihu Vedder, recollects that Arnold used to visit him while he was painting: &quot;I can recall his gentle, sad smile yet. Gentleness was his great charm. We both lived near Pfaff&#039;s, and it was there he read me his poem, shortly after it was written-- &#039;Here I sit drinking my beer.&#039; He died young; I do not know of what he died, but he seemed to be worn out even when I first met him... He thought his life a wasted life; it was with him a gorgeous romance of youthful despair; but into that grave went a tender charm, great talent, and great weakness&quot; (228). E. C. Stedman memorialized Arnold in &lt;em&gt;The Ballad of the Prince, and Other Poems &lt;/em&gt; (1869), and William Winter wrote his eulogy. Winter explained that &quot;those who met George Arnold... saw a handsome, merry creature, whose blue eyes sparkled with mirth, whose voice was cheerful, whose manners were buoyant and winning, whose courtesy was free and gay&quot; (qtd. in Whicher) According to Winter, Arnold was &quot;the most entirely beloved member&quot; of the Bohemian group. He adds that Arnold&#039;s &quot;manly character, his careless good-humor, his blithe temperment, his personal beauty, and his winning manners made him attractive to everybody&quot; (Old Friends 94).

&lt;p&gt;Browne expresses what appears to be genuine praise for Arnold&#039;s work, stating that &quot;he sang in a careless way the pleasures and pains of love, the joys of wine, the charm of indolence, the gayety and worthlesness of existence in a true Anacreontic vein&quot; (155).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Browne seems to insinuate that a poet such as Arnold was not destined to live a long life: &quot;From such a temperment as his, earnest and continued exertion was not to be expected.Like Voiture he trifled life away in pointed phrases and tuneful numbers; but gained a large circle of devoted friends.At three and thirty he slipped out of the World which had been much and little to him, and left behind him many sincere mourners who speak of him still with words of love and moistened eyes&quot; (155).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&quot;They were sitting opposite each other at the table, George was for rebellion and Walt was opposed...words grew hot.Walt warned George to be more guarded in his sentiments.George fired up more and more.Walt passed his &#039;mawler&#039; toward George&#039;s ear.George passed a bottle of claret twoard the topknot of the poet&#039;s head.Paff made a jump and gave a yell of &#039;Oh! mine gots, mens, what&#039;s you do for a dis?&#039;Clapp broke his black pipe while pulling at Arnold&#039;s coat-tail; Ned Wilkins lost the power of his lungs for five minutes after tugging at the brawny arm of Walt; and we all received a beautiful mixture of rum, claret, and coffee on the knees of our trousers.Everything was soon settled, and Walt and George shook hands, and wondered much that they were so foolish&quot; (135-136).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Parry writes about Arnold&#039;s fight with Whitman at Pfaff&#039;s:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;George Arnold was not of their camp in this war.His famous fight with Walt was really only a matter of quick temper, a mere misunderstanding.The trouble with Arnold was that though he, a pastor&#039;s son, knew his drinks and how to take them, he never learned to hold them properly.He became quarrelsome though not exactly drunk during more than one party.Once, George Augustus Sala, the visiting British writer, tried to make friends with the American frolickers by deriding Benedict Arnold.Before Arnold violently protested and it ruined the party.He said afterwards that the was not of Benedict&#039;s stock, but that he willingly misrepresented himself as his descendant the better to defend the memory of the man.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;George Arnold toll sides with unpopular issues merely for the fun of it.He was all for the Union from the very beginnning of the conflict, but he could not bear the sight of everybody protesting his loudest patriotism for the same cause.So he made his patriotism secret and came out with challenging speeches in defense of the South.One night at Pfaff&#039;s he made the error of toasting the Southern arms.Walt sprang up.For the moment he forgot his godlike benignity and broke out with a speech of patriotic vehemence.Arnold retaliated by bending his arm over and across the table and and pulling hard at the Jovian brush which Howells liked the best of all the Pfaffian scenery.The rivals were separated, and it was about then that Whitman shook the Pfaffian part of Broadway&#039;s dust from his soles forever.Years later he was to say about his role at Pfaff&#039;s: &#039;I was much better satisfied to listen to a fight than to take part in it&#039;&quot; (41-42).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to Parry, Whitman would later forgive Arnold for this incident (43).According to Parry, Arnold&#039;s death, &quot;whom Clapp dearly loved&quot; began him a bout of &quot;suicial drinking&quot; (47).Arnold died of paralysis.An editorial written after Clapp&#039;s death titled &quot;The Late Henry Clapp.A Bohemian&#039;s Checkered Life&quot; (April 16, 1875, named Arnold as one of &quot;many a young and promising writer&quot; who he had ruined in addition to himself &quot;by the example of his cynicism and intemperance&quot;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Without Clapp the Bohemia of New York would not have existed, and it was Bohemianism that slew Arnold and the rest.Clapp lived to preach in his own life a better temperance lecture than he ever delivered in his younger days&quot; (47-48).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Arnold died of paralysis November, 1865.&quot;Philistines hostile to Henry Clapp ascribed Arnold&#039;s end to the results of dissipation, nto which Clapp had allegedly enticed him.The accusation was probably groundless, but just the same it made Arnold&#039;s death so mansardish.The news was deemed important enough to be telegraphed to the chief newspapers of the land, and in distant San Francisco, young Bret Harte was moved to a tearful article in the &lt;cite&gt;Californian&lt;/cite&gt;.Bret had never met George personally, but he knew his verses and burlesques.Now he shuddered as he imagined the poet-humorist&#039;s death.&#039;Phials and nauseous mixtures flanked his ink stand,&#039;but &#039;his light, gossiping pen was never dipped in the ugly fluid.&#039;Bret ended by bewailing the fate that compelled a humorist to smile even on his deathbed&quot; (54-55).According to Parry, as the works of Pfaffians spread across the country, Harte would discover the works of Arnold and &quot;follow in his footsteps&quot; (212).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the 1890s, a discussion of Arnold&#039;s life and poetry appeared in the &lt;cite&gt;Bohemian&lt;/cite&gt; in the literary ntes; however, due to hestitancy to discuss Bohemianism, references to Pfaff&#039;s beer and his life were not referred to as such (96).&lt;/p&gt;

Ah, the friends and names and frequenters, those times, that place. Most are dead—Ada Clare, Wilkins, Daisy Sheppard, O&#039;Brien, Henry Clapp, Stnaley, Mullin, Wood, Brougham, Arnold—all gone. And there Pfaff and I, sitting opposite each other at the little table, gave rememberance to them in a style they would have themselves fully confirm&#039;d, namely, big, brimming, fill&#039;d-up champagne-glasses, drain&#039;d in abstracted silence, very leisurely, to the last drop.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/article&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;list-group-item-text&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;views-field views-field-field-mention-note&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-content&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Winter notes that Arnold was a member of Clapp&#039;s circle at Pfaff&#039;s.He is described as &quot;handsome, gay, breezy, good-natured,--one of the sweetest poets in our country who have sung the beauties of Nature and the tenderness of true love; and he never came [to Pfaff&#039;s] without bringing sunshine&quot; (64).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In response to Howells&#039; criticisms of the Bohemians and in a discussion of their writing, Winter states: &quot;Revelry requires money: at the time Mr. Howells met those Bohemians, -- with the &#039;damp locks&#039; and the &#039;frenzied eyes,&#039; -- it is probably that the group did not possess enough money among them all to buy a quart bottle of champagne.Furthermore, they were writers of remarkable quality, and they were under the stringent necessity of working continually and very hard: and it seems pertinent to suggest that such a poem, for instance, as George Arnold&#039;s &#039;Old Pedagogue,&#039; or Fitz-James O&#039;Brien&#039;s Ode in commemoration of Kane, or Charles Dawson Shanly&#039;s &#039;Walker of the Snow,&#039; is not to be produced from under the stimulation of alcohol.Literature is a matter of brains, not drugs.It would be equally just and sensible for American criticism to cherish American literature, and to cease from carping about the infirmities, whether actual or putative, of persons dead and gone, who can no longer defend themselves&quot; (93).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Winter describes him as &quot;the most entirely beloved member&quot; of the Bohemian group.He continues that Arnold&#039;s &quot;manly character, his careless good-humor, his blithe temperment, his personal beauty, and his winning manners made him attractive to everybody&quot; (94).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Of Arnold&#039;s writing: &quot;His numerous stories have not been collected, but his poems (gathered and published under my editorial care) survive, and their fluent, melodious blending of rueful mirth and tender feeling with lovely tints of natural description, -- constituting and irresistable charm, -- have commended them to a wide circle of readers&quot; (94).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Winter reports that &quot;one of the saddest days of my life was the day when we laid him in his grave, in Greenwood&quot; (94).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Winter quotes Arnold for a description of Fitz-James O&#039;Brien on p.99.Arnold was among the dinner party that O&#039;Brien held at Delmonico&#039;s using $35.00 that he borrowed from Aldrich.Aldrich was not invited, but wrote to Winter about the event.Aldrich claims that Arnold, Clapp, and possibly Winter were in attendance with O&#039;Brien (101).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Of the poets associated with the Bohemian period, Winter states that Arnold&#039;s name is one among a list of &quot;names that shine, with more or less lustre, in the scroll of American poets, and recurrence to their period affords opportunity for correction of errors concerning it, which have been conspicuously made&quot; (292).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Arnold was one of the few members of the Bohemian group that Winter claims Stedman was acquainted with.Arnold and Stedman met in childhood at &quot;The Phalanx,&quot; at Strawberry Farms, New Jersey.Winter claims that among Stedman&#039;s poems there is &quot;a tribute to the memory of that delightful comrade and charming poet&quot; (293).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Arnold died at the age of thirty-one, in 1861.Winter published his poems with a memoir of Arnold.Winter reprints a letter that he received from Longfellow dated July 23, 1866, that discusses these poems on p.350.&lt;/p&gt;
