From John Neal's aneciotal artiole entitle!
'Oar Painters," we take the following sketch
Of Jarvis the painter:
"Beyond all question, Jarvis w3 the best
nortrait-nainter of his day, within a Hn'.Uu
sphere that of chaiaoler when there was iu it
anything of the humorist. Ueing himself a
humoriet iu the broadest and riuliest sense of
the word, all his it en were so distinotly indi
vidualized, and, as it were, branded, that there
was no mistaking them. I never saw any of
his women, but have an idea from what I knew
of the mau and saw iu his pictures, that they
were too manly by half, and would not have
been much distressed if they had been set off
with a riding whip and spurs.
"In stature he was about five feet seven,
with large features, a dark, turbid complexion,
a full chest, and a prodigious head, according
to my present recollection, and when I knew
him he was not far from forty-five years old.
lie was a man of imperturbable gravity ou
common occasions, and the best a tory- teller
that ever lived. To him Charles Matthews
was indebted for Uncle lien,' and 'that 'ere
trifle,' and for many touohes and intonations
fall of grotesque humor and astonishing truth
fulness. Well do I remember au eveuing he
passed with our Delphian Club, when he told
ub about the Kilkenny cuts, and their fighting
until there was nothing left but the
tips of their tails a story older than
Jo Miller, and one we had all been
familiar with from our earliest boyhood.
And yet, with his -embellishments, and the
running accompaniment of growling and sput
tering and Hushing , he threw us all, even
the gravest of our number, Mr. 1'ierpout and
Paul Allen and myself, into convulsions,
though some had heard him tell the stoiy
before, and William Gwynn and General
Winder more than once; I drove Breckinridge,
author of 'Views in Louisiana,' and a History
of the War, from one side of a large open fire
place to the other, with my manifestations of
ungovernable delight, and that, too, without
being aware of the fact until he was fairly
torneretl, and could not move his chair another
inch that I had been pounding him black and
blue. Some of the clubactually shouted until
they lobt their breath, and tears stood iu their
eyes. And yet the stories Jarvis told were
nothing of themselves, not even new iu most
cases, and seldom of greater length than five
minutes.
"One day, when he was painting Archbishop
Carrol, that amiable and excellent man, who
had long intended to have a little serious talk
with Jarvis, if he could get a chauce, began a
long way off with a word or two which set the
free-thinker, or atheibt, on his guard. 'Shut
your mouth, sir,' said Jarvis, leaving the
forehead, upon which he was at work, and
coming down to the lower part of the face.
After a few minutes, the good prelate made
another attempt, but with no better suoeess.
'Keep your mouth shut, if you please,' said
Jarvis, without looking up. And there the
matter ended, and the simple-hearted church
man went away without a suspicion of the
triek, as he himself acknowledged, when
speaking of the painter and of his uncouth
manners and strange eccentricities."
This anecdote, by the way, is usually told
of Charles Loring Elliott and the late Bishop
Hopkins.
The author of "Co operative Housekeeping"
gives a solution of the social problems which
he his proposed. From this article we ex
tract the following remarks about cookery:
"Regarding cookery, I believe that, like
dress, it will never be what it can and ought
to become, until women of social and intellec
tual culture make it the business of their
liveB, and, with thoughts unfettered by other
Lou Behold cares, devote themselves, like lesser
providenoes, to its benign neoromancy. Being
one of the great original functions of woman,
like olothes-making and infant-rearing, there
Is no doubt that she has a special gift or in
stinct for it; while the superior keenness of her
senses and fastidiousness of her taste must fit
her preuliarly tor all its finer aud more com
plicated triumphs. All the Paris letters lately
Itave mentioned Sophie, cook of the
lata Dr. Veron of Paris only a woman,
and probably an uneducated woman at
that. Nevertheless, ehe is said to
be 'the most consummate culinary artist of
the day; looking down with mnspeakable eon
tempt on Baron Brisse, and even on Iloaiinl
and Alexandre Dumas. Ministers, bankers,
artists, men of letters, paid obsequious oourt
to this divinity of the kitchen, who ruled des
potically over her master's household and
dining-room, and who hajl it made a Ufv th tt
so more than fourteen guests should ever sit
together at the doctor's table.' If Bnoh is her
snccess, what an artist was lost to: the world la
the New Kuglaud housekeeper I attempted t
describe! Delicate to etherealuess, aoonrate
to mathematical severity, she might have
wrought marvels Indeed, had she been initiated
into the mysteries of the modern cuisine.
Therefore, above all things, let the oo opera
tive housekeepers appoint one of their num
ber, at a liberal salary, to the office of oook-lu-chief.
If possible, let them afford her every
advantage of gastronomioal education, such as
go through the great French chefs, who learn
sanoes from one master, mtren from another,
confections from a third, and so on. If the
co-operative kitchen should ever beoome uni
versal, we shall probably see American ladies
by dozens going out to Paris to study under
jnat snoh artists as the great Sophie above
mentioned, and tlinn returning home
to benefit the whole country with
their accomplishments. It is a well
known fact that no nation in the world
has such a variety and abundance of the best
food that Nature gives as we ourselves. She
teems with such bounty to her adopted chil
dren that it has often seemed to be a misnomer
to call our oountry 'Fatherland' JoMr-)aud
she is for the whole earth, with her broad lap
of plenty sloping from the Kooky Mountains
down to the very Atlantic shore, as if inviting
the hungry nations to come over to it and be
fed. What feasts fit for the immortals might
grace every table, if we only know to turn our
treasures to the best advantage; and to think
that millions of us live on salt pork, sour or
ealeratus bread, and horrible heavy pies !"
Mr. Edward Everett Hale, in "The First and
the Last," gives a graphio anoount of the hor
rors of the slave trade, and how it was put an
end to by the execution of Gordon as a pirate,
under Mr. Linuoln's administration. Speak
ing of the innumerable victims of the infamous
traffic, Mr. Hale says:
"I dare not try to count the numbers. No
body dares. Nor would it make any differ
ence if I did. Beyond a very narrow range,
dear reader, numbers do not affect your sensi
bilities nor any man's. I tell you that one
hurdred thousand people were killed in the
earthquake in Peru, aud you are sorry; if i
tell you that ten thousand people were killed,
and 1 can give you some little account how
one of them suffered, you are much more
sorry; if I tell you one hundred were killed,
and that I saw them killed and heard their
cries as they died, and have here the orphan
of one, whom 1 brought hone with me,
you begin lor the lirst time to feel
that it was indeed a terror of terrors;
atd if there were only five killed,
if those five were your own Dick and Fanny
and Frank, and the rest, why there is a
sorrow that von will carry with yon ,
grave. So I will not p ta ' ?i I
numbers There - 'oate vou Wltb- th
numbers, mere handred yearj
tne first '.i-ree ships that sailed carried,
as we saw, three hundred slaves; and the
las that sailed carried one hundred and fifty
two, of whom one hundred aud forty-nine
lived to reach Cuba and to be set free. Many
and many a ship, in the three hundred years
between, was loaded with a thousand and
more of the poor wretches. Buxton's esti
mate in ls:!0 was thit the Christian slave
trade Christian, good God ! that the Chris
tian slave-trade then carried one hundred
and fifty thousand slaves across every year,
or Etaited with them; that the Mohometan
slave-trade of Eastern Africa took fifty thou
sand more. This was long after the trade
had been pronounced piracy by all the com
mercial nations, and even after Englaud aud
America had vessels ou the African coast to
arrest it. What it had been before no sta
tistics pretend to tell. Iu 1753 the new town
of Liverpool employed one hundred and one
vessels in the trade. Those vessels that year
took 30,000 Blares to the British colonies; aud
the estimate of that year was that Lou Ion,
Bristol, and Liverpool took 100,000. The
estimate on this side was the same that the
American colonies of England received one
hundred thousand slaves in a year. Bssides
these, there were the French, Spanish, Dutoh,
and Portuguese American colonies to be sup
plied. Bouezet's computation is, that thirty
per cent, of all these died on the passage
or in acclimation. Then the cruelties of the
sjstem of slavery, and the opening up of new
lands, kept up a steady demand for them, so
that I do not see that we can escape the in
ference that for much of the last century the
number of negroes annually brought aoross
by the African slave-trade was as great as is
now the number of emigrants from Europe to
North America, namely, between three hun
dred and four hundred thousand every year.
In the preceding century the English alone
carried from Africa to America three hundred
thousand slaves; and the Spanish aud Por
tuguese trade must have been very much
larger."
Miss Jane G. Austin has a olever story
entitled "Caleb's Lark," and a fourth Instal
ment of "The Face in the Glass" is given.
"A Day at a Consulate," describing the way
things are managed at the American Consul's
office at one of the principal Italian ports, is
amusing as well as instructve. ' A Gothic
Capital," by Theodore Baoon, is a description
of Uavtnna. "Our Paris Letter" is an amu
sing little story, and the magazine winds up,
as usual, with some appreciative reviews and
literary notices.
"Our Young Folk."
The December number of this popular ju
venile magazine has something of a holiday
character, reminding ns that Christmas is
near at hand. "Odd and Eves," by Mary N.
Prescott, illustrated by W. L. Champney
and Sol Eytinge, Jr., heals the list of con
tents, and is followed by "Cooie Coo," by
Exie, illustrated by Eytinge; "The Picture
Story," by William Winter, a graoeful little
poem, which Mr. W. J. Uennessy has illus
trated with a full-page drawing, which is good,
but not in his best style. The second number
of "When 1 was a Little Girl," by the author
of "Leslie Goldthwaite," has an illustration
by George G. White. Peter Ley contributes
a poem entitled "The Children of The
Year." The author of "The Seven Little
Sisters" writes about "What the Frost did to
Nannie's Run," and Mrs. Harriet Prescott
Spofford describes "Puss" in some amusing
stanzas. "Running Away," by the author of
"John Halifax," is illustrated by W. L.
Shephard, and Mr. Hennessy illustrates J. N.
A. Borie's story of "A Boy King's Christmas."
"A few pictures" are borrowed from Messrs.
Fields & Osgood's Christmas books for the
benefit of the young folks, and a pieoe of
music entitled "Rondo Mlgnon," by Frederlo
Baumfelder, with a head piece designed by
George G. White, the charades and puzzles
for the young folks to exercise their ingenuity
"Round the Evening Lamp," and ' Our Letter
Box" conclude an unusually attractive num
ber, which is as full of pictures as a Christ
mas pudding is ot plums.
