There is some analhgy between the history of Schtunania'a music in England and that of his artistic life. The composer whose genius hashattled so, long for recognition made a weary search before he found • out where his streng,th lay. As the schoolboy of ZWickau, devotmg spare hours to the piano; as the - kw:student ofLeipsic andifeidelbftmixhig: un inusid'and jurisprudent*); and as the pupil of Puldrich Wiee,k, laboring at the key-board so hard as to disable a finger, Schilmann was groping his way into the light, with confused ideas of its vvhereabouts. But when Dorn had opened up to him the 'entire field • of musical expression the light was found, and Schumann saw himself the prophet of -a new artistic' faith. " modern times'' prophets establish journals, and by means of the "Neue Zeitschrift.fair Musik," the young composer - ?founded founded a propaganda which is working still, becalti3e the world is not yet converted. He preached down loans, and—exalted-idealism; he dematided that music should be liberated from the trami tdels of precedent, and be freens his own fan tastic imagination. Schumann was desper ately earnest, and tried hard to reduce his theory to practice. But he found this more difficult than either its conception or its ad vocacy. Nevertheless, he worked on through what was really a "storm period" with pain— ful devotion. His earlier compositions show how visionary were the ideas on which he hoped to base the canons of art, and of what mental licentiousness he had to get rid. For the creed that, in his young - enthusiasm, Schumann set himself -to preach, though in part true, was in greater part false. His in tensely poetic temperament demanded a com plete idealization of that which after all has largelyto do with the real. He could not bear to see the genius of his art restrained like a hobbled Pegasus. By so much did Schu mann's passion get the better of his discern ment- He mistook music for a branch of metaphysics. It was not surprising that even so earnest an 'advocate of an exaggerated truth should come to see its real proportions, for ScLa mann was, above all, conscientious. As the ardor of youth abated his sight grew olearer; moreover, the charm of Mendeissohn's purity . and sweetness began to . .vork upon his mind. It may be, also, that the influence of a gifted wife had something to do with the manifest difference between the first and se cond petiods of his career. At any rate, the date of his first symphony (1841) marked the beginning of a series of works whtch,though strongly individual in conception and treat ment, shows that the composer had made a compromise with the dogmas he would once have overturned. The old leaven was still apparent, but not less so how Schumann had come to look upon the older masters as other than prophets of an effete dispensation. In the union of highly original ideas with so kriowledged modes of expression which marks his: second period lies Schumann's silergth, and hence the works written be tween the date of his first symphony and the production of his fourth will determine the place he must definitely hold. Earlier he was a dreaming enthusiast, later a hypochon driac. We mentioned at the outset that there is an analogy between Schumann's career and the history of his music in England. Such a man could not arise without drawing to himself a few disciples between whose active enthu siasm on the one side and the passive unbe lief of the great majority on the other a long contest would inevitably take place. In this respect Schumann stands alone. Haydn and Mozart,, with their unfailing melody and transparent treatment, Mendelssohn uttering his poetic thoughts in simplicity or melan choly grandeur, were promptly welcomed by the English public, while Beethoven was only rejected for a time when he uttered the "dark sayings" to which, even now, few pos sess a key. Schumann, on the contrary, has had to fight for every step towards public fa vor, and the conflict is not half over yet. We charge nobody with-unfairness or preju dice in this matter. The fault, if fault there be, lies with Schumann himself, who chose, or was impelled, to write, caring less for the beauty of his work than for its faithfully reflecting certain trains of thought or emotional conditions. He could have taken no more certain means of arousing wide ' spread distrust, ifnot dislike. The sticklers for form would have nothing to do with oue who made form subservient, while those who wished to be pleased without effort of their ~.own turned away from music the meaning of totes — if it had any—required patient seek ing Gilt. 'Pe yils,lity of 6ehumann's erec tions under cir'w'nstances like these is an argument in their favor. That cannot be an insignificant thing about which the entire musical world has contended for years, and still contends with unabated earnestness. But vitality may legitimately mean some thing more to the composer's disciples. ,Tney may take it as an earnest of final success. As - with men, so with movements—it infancy be outlived, the chances of maturity are favor able. Twenty years have passed since Schumann wrote the works upon which hie fame will rest. That those works are not only living now, exciting more attention than ever, warraris a hope as to the future bright enough to. satisfy their most exacting ad vocate. ' It is evident that Schumann has been mak ,. ( , 1 ing not a few English friends of late. Some 'who, stood aloof at first, and demanded to know the stranger before they trusted him, have permitted friendship to take the place of suspicion. Others, who honestly objected to him for what they considered faults, have since discovered merits on account of which -- they more than tolerate the offender. And others again—a much larger number—who merely echoed the cry of the hour, begin to paver in their accents. Much of thi a result NB owing to the Crystal Palace Concerts, at 'which Schindel= has been exhibited through mril as well as good report with a constancy Rat deserves success.

For example, the "production a few weeks back of the , Sym phony in E flat was rth a' hundred essays upon its compeser's genius, and made'an im pression not likely to be soon effaced. Schu mann's advocates may well be proud of the work in question, for it is an example which goes far to establish their case. Of its character and purport the master himself has told us somewhat. The Rhine and Cologne Cathedral had each a part in suggesting the five movements composing it, three being due to the national river, and two to the religious edifice. Schumann gave the former a populat cast, and never more successfully proved the elasticity of his powers. Both the opening Vivace and the closing Allegro, not less than the quaint Scherzo, strongly reflect the composer's indi viduality, yet they are as clear, straightfor ward and intelligible as could be wished. Nothing by Schumann is more unlike the popular idea of the master. It is rollicking, sunshiny music which might suggest the (operatic) revels of Rhenish grape-gatherers. The other movements are hardly so satis factory. •The inconsequential musing of one who rambles throughr a Gothic cathedral is apparent in the Andante; while the Religioso, though here and, there interesting, conveys the notion of a - man struggling with ideas be yond his power of expression. But, these things notwithstanding, the entire work is calculated to make every <impartial mind avoid a hasty judgment of its composer. The claims of a man able to write the Sym phony in E flat must'not be refused a thought ful hearing. The domain of music is a wide one, and affords ample room for Robert Schumann. Even if this were ' not so, room should be made for one who comes with such inde pendent thought.and original expression. If any have to'remain outside, let them be the manufacturers of music after other men's pat, terns,of whom we have enough,and to spare. But the author of Schumann's four sympho nies,:of-the piano - fortc,concerto in =A minor, of the quintet in E flat, of "Das Paradie und o die Pen," and of much other of a like sort, should be welcomed as one who speaks, be cause having something new to say. His speech may be strange, but that of itself is no reason for rejection or even doubt.--Paei Nall Gazette. --PLACE AUX DAMES BY T. W. UIGGINSON In every town there is one young maiden who is the universal favorite, who belongs to all sets'and is made an exception to all family feuds who is the confidante of till girls and the adopted sister of all young men up to the time when they respectively offer themselves to her, and again atter they are rejected. This post was filled in Oldport, in those days, by my cousin Kite. Born into the world with many other gifts, this last and least definable gift of popularity was added - to complete them all. Nobody criticized her, nobody was jealous of her, her very rivals lent her their new music and their lovers; and her own discarded wooers always sought her to be bridesmaid when they mar ried somebody else. She was one of these persons who seem to have come into the world well-dressed. There was an atmosphere of elegance around her, like a costume; every attitude implied a presence-chamber or a ball room. The girls complained that in private theatricals no com bination of disguises could reduce Kate to the ranks, nor give her the "make up" of a waiting-maid. Yet as her father was a New York merchant of the precarioas or spas modic description, she had been used from childhood to the wildest fluctuations of ward robe;—a year of Paris dresses,—then.anoth.er year spent in making over ancient flnery,that never looked like either finery or antiquity when it came from her magic hands. With out a particle of vanity or fear, se cure in health and good-nature and invariable prettiness, she , cared lit tle whether the appointed means of grace were ancient silk or modern muslin. In her periods of poverty, she made no secret of the necessary devices; the other girls, of course, guessed them, but her lovers never did, be cause she always told them in advance. There was one particular tarlatan dress of hers which was a sort of local institution. It was known to ad her companions, like the State House. There was a report that she had first worn it at her christening; the report originated with herself. The young men knew that she was going to the party if she could turn that pink tarlatan once more; but they had only the vaguest impression what a tarlatan was, and cared little on which side it was worn, so long as Kate was inside. During these epochs of privation her life in respect to dress was a perpetual Christmas tree of second-hand gifts. Wealthy aunts supplied her with cast-off shoes of all sizes, from two and a half up to five, and she used them all. She was reported to have worn one straw hat through five changes of fashion. It' was averred that when square crowns were in vogue she flattened it over a tin pan; and that, when round crowns returned,she bent it on the bed-post. There was such a charm in her way of adapting these treasures, that the other girls liked to test her with new prob lems in the way of millinery and dress-mak ing;- millionaire friends implored her to trim their ltts,and lent her their own things in or der to learn how to wear them. This applied especially to certain rich cousins, shy and studious girls, who adored her, and to whom society only ceased to be alarming when the brilliant Kate took them under her wing, and graciously accepted a few of their newest feathers. Well might they acquiesce, for she stood by them superhly,and her most favored partners found no way to her hand so sure as to dance systematically through the staid sis terhood. Dear, sunshiny, gracious, gener ous Kate!—who hareever done justice to the charm given to this grave old world by the presence of one free-hearted and joyous girl? —From the Atlantic Monthly for Jan tta2 y. RotUser:AWN Daily Life. As every one is interested to know how so rich a man us Baron Rothschild lived, correspondents are particular as to every movement of his daily life. It is related that he rose every morning at six o'clock. His body servant shaved and , dressed him. Meantime, al. Boudeville (a teacher of elocution,who fits people for the stage) read the newspapers to him • and told him the gossip of the green-rooms .of the Paris theatres. He was dresse d for the 'day, at this early hour, put ting on even a white cravat. Ile next received a Prussian named Bernardi, with whom ho ex amined the quotations from the great exchanges of Europe, uud decided upon and gave orders for the transactions of the day. Ho next received the correspondence clerks, took from them the more Important letters which required a replyfrom the Baron, and approved or modified the proposed replies to other letters. Then the almoner came in and reported on the poor relieved, and received new instructions. He then went to Mine. do Rothschild for her instructions. After the almo ner retired the Baron received his experts, men who kept him informed of all art and book sales: they made reports or ' re ceived instructions. Ho then went to breakfast. All the family met at - breakfast, and usually one or two married - children wore pre sent. After breakfast the Baron went to his office (which was immediately on the street and separated from his house by the courtyard; a covered way reached from one to the other) to receive people. At 2 o'clock he would sometimes go•to the Bourse, or oftener to the auction mart for be was fond of buying objects of curiosity and pictures. -He would return to his °Mee, and at 4 o'clock drive down to Chateau de Bureau or Bois de Boulogne, returning at 5 o'clock to his club, where he would play whist at ten sous a point, until dinner time. During the last part of his life be beconle eccentric in a good many email i'matters. He carried a porte-monnale which was closed by alock, although he never carried more than lin francs about hire ("11:a matt catrle4 more be is someliMes led to extravagant, expense," be used to say), and often nothing at all. Re car ried the key of this lock on his watch chain. The members of the club In ,tho Rue Royale, used to laugh to see the Baron fumbling for hls - key, and even his lock (his sight was latterly impaired), and when, at last; ho managed to open the pone monnaie, to find it empty, After dinner he - re= ceived company, at home, or went to some theatre. INTERESTING' TO ANTIQUARIANS Unpublished 1.41 . 1...t0rs from Thomas Jefferson. The Greenbrier (W. V.) Independent hits been placed in possession of a number of letters writ ten by Thomas Jefferson to Colonel Stuart, of Greenbrier county. These letters have never heretofore been published, and are in the hand writing of the anther. Colonel Stuart was one of the first settlers of Greenbrier county, and occupied a high and prominent position in the community.. 'The subject treated of in these communications raises a natural inquiry as to what was the real character and species of the ani mal referred to, and will furnish , food: for reflec tion for those who feel an interest in such mat ters. Whether Colonel Stuart ever succeeded in pbtaluing the thigh bone of the animal referred to is a question, perhaps, which can never be ascertained, It is, quite certain, however, that the bones were found in this aestion—no doubt in this (Greenbrier) county—and belonged to an animal now unknown to naturalists. The fol lowing are the letters precisely as they were written : MONTICELLO, May 26, '96.—Bir: I have great acknowledgments to-make you for your favor of April 11, which came to hand a few days ago with the honest you were pleased to send, to wit— the leg bone and two phalanges of the toe of the animal mentioned , in, your letter. One of. these ;(the claw) was broke. but so that we could put it together. This animal is certainly hitherto un known, and seems, from the dimensions of these bones, to have the same pre-eminence over the Bon which the big buffalo or mammoth has over the elephant. They fdrnish a victorious fact against the idle dreams of some European philo sophers who pretend , that animal nature in the New World is a' degeneracy.from that of the Old. If lithe big buffalo were an elephant, as Buffon would have ne, believe, it was of surely an ele phant improved-, for it was four or five times his size hO If his ,order_to., support their doctrine tif a central: heat in the earth—should :,choose to consider the animal now discovered as a lion; they must admit it is a lion improved and not degene rated. I comaider these bones as a great acqui sition, and shall make a point of com municating the discovery and discription of them to the learned - On both sides of tne Atlantic. I only defer it•till I can find whether a hope exists of finding any other -of-the bones?..as LWould.wish that the first infor mation Should be as exact and as complete as possible. , Rae there ever been any other remains of this species found anywhere? I must look to you, sir. to complete the knowledge of this ani mal for us as yon have begun it,by sending me all the further information you can and Sending me what - Other bones - can be got of it, and to be so good as to inform me by letter whether any thing more may be expected, that I may decide whether I ought to delay giving an account of it. I am, with great esteem, sir, your most obedient servant, Tn. JEFFERSON. Mr. JOHN STUART, Greenbrier. MosrricELLo, Nov.lo, 1796.—Dedr Siri=l have to acknowledge the receipt of your last favor to gether witicthe bones of the Great-claw which accompanied it. My anxiety to obtain a thigh bone is such that I defer communicating what we have to the Philosophical Society in the hope of adding that bone to the collection. We should then be able to fix the stature of the animal with out going into conjecture anti calculation, as we should possess a whole limb from the haunch bone to the claw inclusive. Whenever you an nounce to me that the recovery of a thigh bone is desperate I shall make the communication to the Philosophical-Society. I think it happy that this incident will make known to them a person so worthy as-yourself to be taken into their body, and without whose attention to these extraor dinary remains the world might have been deprived of the knowledge of them. I cannot however help believing that this animal as well as the mammoth are still existing. The an nihilation of any species of existence is so unex ampled in any parts of the economy of nature which we see that we have a right to conclude as to the parts we do not see, that the probabilities against such annihilation are stronger for it. In hopes of hearing from you as soon as you can. form a conclusion satisfactory to yourself that the thigh bone will or will not be recovered, I re main, with great respect and esteem, dear sir, your most obedient servant. TH. JEFFERSON. Mr. John Stuart, Greenbrier. Th. Jefferson acknowledges the receipt from Colonel Stuart of a cranium of an animal un known to him, and rearms him his thanks for it. He will, on his return, to Washington, for ward it to the Philosophical Society at Philadel phia as the best depository for preservation as well as examination. He prays Colonel Stuart to accept his salutations and assurances of re spect. MONTICELLO, Sept. 10, 1800. Tires Delawarean, referring to the fact that rep resentatives of several prominent newspapers have written accounts of the pillOry.. and whip ping scenes in this State, says : "We imagine that if these philanthropic' fellows were to publish accounts of the tortures inflicted on prisoners in Jails and penitentiaries in their own States—the private executions re quired for the subduing of refractory subjects— there would not be so much occasion for crying over Delaware barbarities. Suppose they try it and give us some account of the refined tortures of the shower-bath, the drop, the straight jacket, the vermin-infested cell, &c." Even supposing that such practices exist in the Northern jails and penitentiaries, what has that to do with the right or wrong of our punish ments ? This sort of " You're another argu ment is childish. But we greatly doubt the cor rectness of these insinuated' charges. In Phila delphia, a philanthropic association known as the Prison Discipline Society has legal oversight of the condition of prisoners in the jails, Its efficiency is unquestionable, and we do not be lieve for a moment that cruel punishments or unnecessary severities exist. except In riro and isolated instances.

The Fourth Baptisttlittreh' in this city has raised for repairs over $4, 000 within the past EtTETE3 I , At a recent revival. Mita; Aia.,-ninety— two Members were added to the Presbyterian church in that city. • Nev i , Matthew, .Newkirk has accepted , a unaniukotte call to - the North Tenth Street Presbyterian Church. A new Baptist church is being .built in Elizabeth, New Jersey, to Cost $75,000. It will be an architectural ornament to that City. It is contemplated to, give a Christmas din ner to the scholars of the Bedford Street Mis sion, at the Mission , House, No. 619 Bedford street. A donation of $lOO,OOO has been made to the Baptist 'Theological Seminary at Roches ter, New York, by Roswell S. .Burrows, of Albion, N. Y. The Second Presbyterian Church, German town, has given $BO7 to the - Board of Do mestic Missions of the Presbyterian church for the present year. Theater. John K. Allen, of,Hoboken,New Jersey, has received an invitation from the Third Reformed Church of Philadelphia to , become their pastor. The Third Reformed Presbyterian Church, Oxford and. Hancock streets, has undergone extensive repairs. Fifty-three new members were added at a recent communion. The new church; building of the Second Presbyterian Church of Trenton, New Jer sey, was dedicated en Thursday, 3d inst. Rev: Drs. Hodge and McCosh preached on the occasion: :;' The Rev. A. N. Littlejohn, rector of Holy Trinity church; Brooklyn, has been chosen Bishop of the Northern Diocese of New York, and has been also chosen Bishop of the new Diocese of Long island. The Baptists are said to have in this city about ninety 13abbativschools. 'sand'acholars.are in- regular attendance, and during the past year at , least foul hundred united with the several churches. The forces of the two Methodisms (North and South) aggregate 10,870 traveling and 13,850 local preachers, and 1,790,114 mem bers. They represent from seven to eight Millions of the population of the country. The Devotion of Fortyltounr - commenced in St. Malachre Catholic Church hist Sunday. Solemn High Mass was sung by. Rev. Father McElroy as Celebrant, Rev. John Dily as Deacono and Mr. John Ward as Sub-Deacon. There are in the State ocNew Jersey 1.514 Sunday schools, 3,986 officers, 18,247 teachers and 131,519 scholars. During the past twelve months $74,299 was expended in sustaining these schools, and $41,303 israspaid for other benevolent purposes. Carleton, the interesting correspondent of a Boston journal, says that the attitude of England on the opium question is a great difficulty in the way of missionary effort in the Chinese Empire. The people are ready to hear, but they suspect that to talk about a new religion is a political game. • Mr. John T. Martin contributed as his por tion of the gifts for the Methodist Centenary year $25,000. to found a theological school in Germany. The site chosen is in Frankfort on-the-Main, the grounds being higher than any other in the vicinity. It is called the Martin'Mission Institute, after the donor. The Hebrew half feast, known as Chamka, held in remembrance of tho wars between the Maccabees and Greeks, was commenced- Thursday evening of lain week and closed on Frioay of this week. On the first night of the feast the bead of each family lights` one lamp or candle, and keeps the same burning, and• on, each succeeding day another light is added, until the end of the eighth day. The Stotqay Sphool Timee, a weekly paper devoted to Sabbath school training, published by J. C. Garrignea & Co., No. 608 Arch street, begins the new year with a changed form and a new dress. For the past ten years it has been a valuable aid to the Sunday school cause,and the present forward movement by its enterprising publishers is en evidence that their efforts are appreciated by the religions community. • The Rev. Dr. John Wilson, Free Church Missionary, Bombay, has recently received a valuable testimonial from the people of that city, of ail races, in public recognition of his services to India during the past 40 years. The testimonial will be placed at his , entire disposal dur'eg his lifetime, the reversion thereof devr ug on the University of Bom bay, of wt' he has from its foundation been a felliq, ,nd office-bearer. It will be devoted tee. foundation of a philological lectureship. The Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church have forwarded to General Gtant a letter of congratulation on his election. The letter says that his accession to the Presiden tial chair must result in the restoration of the States to their proper relations, business to its proper channels, rights to all citizens, peace to all our borders, and the public credit and the'national honor to their proper emi nence in all the markets and courts of the world. Pilgrifhs to Jerusalem will in future find the Holy Sepulchre restored, and the interior bronze decorations completed ere long. ' The painting of the cupola is finished, and the railings of the "gallery of lamps" are about to be sent from Paris, France—in fact the Em press has taken a leading part in this work; and the French Conant has obtained a promise from the priests of the various churches— Greeks, Turks, Christians and Jews—that there shall be no more fighting in this or any other of the holy places. The Rev. J. Howard Suydam, pastor of the First Reformed Cburch in Philadelphia, preached a sermon lately, giving a history of the church of which he is pastor, and which he has been so successful in raising from its embarrassed condition, to freedom from debt and general prosperity. In the course of the sermon he gives the - following item; which is of interest:- !Strictly speaking there was no church of our denomination in this city until the organization of this one. There was, however, one in Newcastle, Delaware,which is now an Old School Presbyterian church, under the pastoral care of the Rev. Dr. Spots wood, who claims it to be the first Presbyte rian organization in America." - Monday 'Preto:mils—What to Give . ny people who propose to give presents du ring this holiday season; have not yet decided what ,thoso 'presents almil be. Perhaps these suggestions from Harper's Bazar will be of use to them Gifts should be adapted to the clar of persons upon whom they aro bestowed. Sot 1 , position, age, and degrees of relationship ow intimacy must have a controlling Influence. The, master and man, the maid and mistress, the formal, ac quaintUnce and bosom friend, the husband and wife, the 'parent and child, the brother and sister, are not to be treated alike. In some cases the gift should only give expression to the sentiment of love, affection, or courtesy; in others it should be a substantial manifestati?p,of the valuable and metal. 'lt would not, itvident, be exact ly the thing,to present tbe maid-servant with a bouquet and her mistress with a bandana hand kerchief, although by reversing them each would have her appropriate gift. •Riches attract riches; and thus It is usual for the wealthy to receive the most expensive pre sents. People of taste, however, while comply ing with this general rule,atrive to avoid any in dication of conferring a benefit; and "fake care that their gifts should be, however costly, as free as possible from any positive utility. Thus their presents take the form of expensive and evanes cent flowers, costly and not indispensable works of art and virtu. 'Whenever the utility of an ob ject is paramount it loses its capability of being THE DAILY EVENIIsg-I BULLETIN--PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 19, - 180.—TRIPLE SHEET. , an appropriate gift de c tiremidit ' 'No person, . for example,. would voitnre heetoWlitiore dada or, namsel—nnless there was : reason,' from relation ship or otherwise, for his assuming. the character of a benefactor—a dinivg-room table or a set of bedroom furniture, while he would not hesitate to give -a piece of marqueterle, a statue, or pic ture of ten draw the cost. Though art has un questionably its utility, the exclusiveness and comparative remoteness of its kind make of it something so delicate and refined_ that it hardly seems perceptible, or of sufficient substance to overlay the eentiment of a gift. Among equals there are urrrpresents frosat each other so grateful as those which have been made by their own hands. It is easy Cnougb in an impulse of generosity or, on the mommilary re minder of the duty of the season, to put the hand in the pocket and lay out k score of dollars more or less in*the purchase of -a _gift. This might be prompted, as it often is, by a sin gle thought during the whole year of the person for whom it is intended; but the conceptionjand execution, deliberately begun and patiently con tinued, day after day, of some piece of handi work, though of little monepeost, are indicative of a Sentiment,ef affection or f-lenditness the sin -eerily and duration of which cannot be doubted. Every touch of a pencil or stitch of embroidery becomes thus a record of the pertipacioas attach ment of a friend or lover. The question What to give? is ono more partic ularly pertinent at this season in regard to chil dren. .It would be'readily answered if> the par pose of the gift were only to satisfy the child, who is literallypleased with a rattle and tickled with a straw. It is surprising bow`easy it is to gratify the genuine boy or girl, not , the young "master" or,"miss," who are , already used up by a surfeit of enjoyment before they are grown up. A hearty child of•ittature is so fall of buoyant spirit{ that his joyousness overflows at the small eat provocation. He requires neither the bril liancy of art nor the piquancy of novelty to attronschispleasurable emotions. Efe,in fact, has so much of the originar. smacks of his mother earth in him that he will turn from the moat elab orate and eensive objects to the structures of his congenial xp Wad. , Row, often have , we. seen ia tants throw away the gilded whistle and bells for the greasy bone, and abandon the flaunting wax doll for its successful rival, the shaggy rag-baby i There is, however, a more important object to be considered than the mere temporary gratifi cation of the child. The kind of gift bestowed upon the young, who are so impressible for good or ill, is to be regarded In reference to its educa tional influence. Stroke, of all presents, are the -moateffeetive la thia,respect, unquestionably, but care must be taken to adapt them to the na ture of children. In our desire to implant into our tittle ones germs of usefulness, we are apt to bring them np on a too plain and solid nutriment. The early intellectual , education of the child should be eidelipthrongh the eyes and imagine- Lion. Their books, therefore, should be fall of gay pientres and impossible stories. Old. Eng lish literature brightened up by modern art sup plies such works in perfection, and from omni present Cock Robin to immortal Robinson Cru ses there is a series of classical works among which parents are always safe to choose. Tile “Potit-Creve.” Girls, It is asid, are auperficial, given to dress, fond of gossip; as if boys were not all these things to the same degree, and as nearly in the same way as differences in the sex will permit. Fond of gossip, forsooth! We were sitting once in the cafe of Deknonico's up-town restaurant, Scar a table where five or six young sprigs were pulling 'away at their cigars after dinner. They seemed to be stranded on, the shores of silence, and for five minutes not a word was said. At last one broached this deeply interest ing subject: "I say, Bill," says he, "let's each of us tell how he undresses himself when he goes to 'bed !" Let not the delicate reader shudder in an ticipation, or reproach us with treading on doubt ful ground. It was a virginal discourse, and each of the six went through his dull narrative without a suggestion of impropriety. One of the dandies deposited his garments as he removed them In a certain defined order over a chair another wandered about the room as he undresseti himself, and gratified every chair with the guard ianship of a separate piece of clothing. This one folded his things; together had heard some fellow say that wasn't heathy, and always hung his up. The one dawdled in undressing, the other one could undress in five minutes. Jack always wound up his watch at night; Tom always left his till morning; 'Dick alwaya — cleaned his teeth; Bam sometimes neglected that important duty! Six stout, handsome; well-ap pointed.young men in America, in the nineteenth century, driven to such desperate straits as this for something to talk about! And who that has ever made one of the parties of young men in society that meet on Sunday afternoons in whos'ever bedroom commands a fashionable street, but will laugh at the notion that girls have monopoly of the art of gossip! There isn't a fault that girls have, nor a defect, that can't be matched easily with a fault oil the young men's side. All that is needed in the right training of girls Is needed just as imperativer • in the right training of boys. Girls are common.y reproached with being fond of dress, extravagantly fond; bat, the truth is, that young men are every whit as fond of it, and, so far as they are able, give as much anxious thought and as much time to their toilet as their supposed weaker sisters. We knew a delightful fellow once,a downright clever, amiable fellow, who was as fond of dressing him self up as any girl, and who won himself a name by appearing on a certain occasion in a waist coat made or some material,the like of which had never been seen at Newport before that morn ing. A shiver of jealousy and envy ran through the bosom of every delicate Paris on the piazza. There was no peace under the Newport sun, nor, could be any, until it was discovered what Fred's vest was made of, and where he got the stuff. But Fred enjoyed his triumph too exqdisitely to lose it by any fond disclosure, and not till the season was over did he astound the fops by the information, that his beautiful vest was made of a Turkish bathing towel.--Putnam's.
