What the French Artiste are Doing, The adistsof franco aie chiefly eupaced at present on pictures lor the "Annual and "Uni versal" exhibitions. Tuo Joriner will contain new works only, and the latter pictures painted within the last ten years. There are a number of excel lent urtiots iu Paris wlioe works are little known in this country. Levi, Tromentln, Dm re. Diaz, and Decamps are preat favorites with the i'f,riiaiic, and it is probable that noire of their works will reach this city during the present jer. (Jerome has many pictures under way, but nothing liiibthed. Ills 'Christian Martyrs De livered ti the Wild UcaBts" promises to be his preatesv worK. Two otber paintings in his studio are "The Slave Market" one uuue figure in It something In the style of his "l'liryuee," and The Ulu Colh Merchant of Cairo Coiuiite-Calix has lately finished two largo pic tures. His "Last Ko.-,e of Summer" is lllnstra tivo of Moore's hong. "Love's Messenger" Is a bureeshtul picture. Diellenbach is flnlhing a companion piece to the lamoiis "-Christen'mir," by Knaws. Meisso nier hu lust finished his most important pic ture. It is entitled "The Cavalry Churge," and represents a body of horsemon chareing on the enemy. The Parisians are quite excited over it. He was ottered 150,000 liuncs lor it, but asks 200,000 and he Hill eet it equal to about $40,000. Tihsot has nearly finished his "Japa nese Lady," life size ; a most extraordinary work, but not calculated although only partly nude for modest Philadelphia, lie is building a hotel with splendid studios. Ed. I' rere has sent his latest completed works to the exhibitions, but has still lott in his studio a larpo and important work, representing a crowd of noisy and mischievous boys leaving school. Another woik is, "Preparing for tho First Communion." Duvergi-r has just finished a large picture called "Tbo Coniirmatian." Tlio iuterior of church is well depicted, and little girls, ciad in white nud ;wearing veils, tbeir heads adorned with flowers, produce a charming effect, 8oyer, Arnonx, Auiray, Seignac. Devaux. Dansaert, and Mad'lle Bournes, are all engaged on more or less important works. The younner Frere has lately built a new studio on the heights of the vi'lngo occupied by the Ecouen "colony," near Paris. Johnson and liucou, both Americans, belong to Ibis colony, audaie doing well. Ilazeltinc will be represented in both the annual and universal exhibitions. The French artists speak highly of him. Gustave Dore is immensely busy. Ilia studio covers two lots, and is filled witb Urge canvases. He has two other etudios m different parts of Paris. A Novel Entertainment. The JPalt Mali Gazette describe a new enter tainment in London: "An ingenious German is just now showing at the Egyptian Hall, Piccadilly, what wonders can be wrought by putting your lace into training, and by a scientific arrangement ot lights and shadows. He may have been more favored by nature in respect ot certain facial lines than the generality of men, but he has evidently seconded nature by assiduous em ployment of art. Such perfoct mastery over his face has he established that he appear also to be several tingle gentlmen, as unlike one another as possible, rolled into ono. The en tertainment is divided into four parts. When the curtain first rises there is 'discovered' a stage w hereon is a long table, on cither end of which is creeled a sort of rampart; on each rampart is a candlctuiCK of five branches: in the end of each branch is a lighted candle; on each of two side shelves are three more lighted can dles; and behind each rampart it concealed what the entertainer could explain better than anybody else. On mo centre ot the table, between the two ramparts, ia a small mirror, with ita back: towards the spectators, and on each side of the mirror 18 movable Ras jet, shaded from the spectators by what looks like a piece ol tin in the shape ot an oyster shell. Of these jets the entertainer wakes mucn use in ugnwn up uis contortions ot lace. From the centre of the table alto springs up from time to time a screen, bemud which the entertainer hides himself whilst be makes Eucta alterations in his dress and identity m he considers necessary or boconiug. His entertainment is interspersed with a kind of lecture. In which there is no little humor, rendered more piquant and sometimes more unintelligible than it would otherwise be by the entertaine r's quiet, occasionally almost puritani cal, manner and foreign pronunciation oi our lan guage. 'The first part of the entertaiment consists of a representation, by means merely of masterly command over the lace, a black- coat, and a white waistcoat of about twelve different types of men, to wit, the melancholia, the 'sansuini ous,' the choleric, the sanctimonious (in which the performer is eminently successtul), the cynical, the proud tin which the periormer seems to have taken for his model ttiu super cilious waiter at a railway hotel), the humble, the learned, the simpleton, the misanthrope, or man-eater,' and the genial. The entertainer concludes this part by a display of tuch power over bis lace as to lead to the hypothesis already made that ho would take it oif as easily as he would fate off his hat. The second part is devoted to the beard (the term including all hair worn on the face): aud the mauner in which by meaii9 of. shadows only the 'manly growth' is imitated is particularly clever." Marriage by Clog and Shoe. 4i A correspondent of Jvotes and Queries writes: "In the registers of the church at Hawortb, In Yorkshire, now fatuous as the place where Miss Bronte, 'Currer Hell,' lived and died, and also remarkable for the wonderful assurance with whioti its InhubUants, past aud present, have asherted Its church to have been lounded in the year 600, there occurs an entry Kevins a list of 'marrlafre9 at Bradford, and by clog and boe In Lanciibhire, but paid the minister of Haworth' the lees mentioned. This ia in the jear 1733. Haworth is not lar from the border of Lancashire. What is the meaninfr of 'mar riatres by clog and eboe in Lancashire?' In some parts oi the West Iiiding it is customary to throw old shoes aud old bliopers after the newly married pair when starting on the wed ding tour. A few weeks afjo I was present at a marriage on the banks of the river Holme, at which London, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales were well represented, when nearly all present took psrt in the practice. The moment the car riage which contained tbe bride and bridegroom, and which was drawn by four splendid greys, began to move off. a score or more shoes and slippers were seen flying after it. The custom is said to be expressive of good luck and prosperity to the newly married couple. Wnat is the origin of it? Id the forest of Bhlpton, a lew miles north of Haworth, matrimony was subject to a singular toll In the reign of Edward II. It was ordained 'that every bride coming that way should either give her left shoe or 3s. Ad. to the forester of Crookryse bv way of custom or gavt cloys.' Has this and the preceding custom any connection with that ol c'.og and shoe?" The other dayRosinl and Verdi went to gether to tbe El Dorado calu concert in Paris to hear the tragedienne Cornelie.
