DLLIVERED T FRANKLIN AXD 3IAR SUJtL OeliLtGE, DEC. 8, 1880. The Eelatlsn Uetween Art and Nature. Kj A. 51. Vlven. Heading, Pa. "We aie told that nature finds itsculmin itsculmin aiien hi man ; that man was made from the dust of the earth, and that after hav ing the Incnth eflife breathed into him he became the image of Ged. llence man is of a double natuic, or as Yeung se bcv.utifuily expresses it : Frem dtfleienl natures marveletisly mixed, Conn x:en exquisite et distant werlds: Distinguished link in being's endless chain 1 Midway Irem nothing te Deity 1" V.'hile man is both physical and spiritual, his spiritual also is threefold the will, which seeks it&hcultfiful existence in the geed, the intellect in the true, and the phantasy in the beautiful. Just as natur ally as the body stiuggles for its nourish ment se does e.ich patt of his spiritual natute. The phantasy seeks insatiatelv for the beautiful, and when it fails te find it, it becomes lean and diseased. There is a vi e:i;r done, and the contaminating eilectsaie felt by the whole spiritual na ture. Hence the beautiful, one and the i..:nic with that Divine trinity, "the geed, the tine and the beautiful," is what the at ti.stie side of man's nature feasts upon. But the beautiful cannot be enjoyed as .such, for it has no objective self-existence ; theicfeie it must be represented, and al though it is of an infinite quality it must be lepicscnted finitely se as te be received by the senses into the soul. .Natuic and ait arc very often unjustly cjbaideicd. When wc compare the beau til til in ait te that in nature wc take uatme at a disadvantage. Art is intended for beamy ; that and that only is its aiiii. Nature was made for mere". Hut the fart that she was net made for the aitist alone is evident from her ever changing condition. She is never the same, and although she may present what is beautiful te r.s at times it is net se as an end, for she .seen deploys it. Seme geed author says: "The delight of the artist in the idc.il feini is that it premises some finality amid the endless maze of matter; and this completeness iu art. which is beauty, whether it happen te exist or net, is never aimed at by nature. Na tuic istiiiwcaiictliii pieducing, but negli gent of the product se far as beauty is concerned. The earth and the air hasten tocenveit themselves into a plant, the flower into fruit, the fruit into llesh.and the animal at last te die and give back again te the air and the eatth what they h e tiati'mittcd te her.'' We find natuic then an inadequate me dium for the beautiful. Ait takes up na ttup whcie she fails, and completes the weik. Ait, however, is net an imitation, hut a picientatien of nature and far fiem niese imitation of the natural. In the first place the tnic artist willal wajs bj governed by whatRuskin calls ''a pare motive"' he will be conscientious, an:l will seek te accomplish what is substan tia!, honest and Luc, and will ever avoid catering te the perverted tastes of the peo ple for their praise. In short the true at tist will l.iise himself above the things ertime, and will take up a world mere leal than this for his habitation. I knew itisiiattttcth.it he is dependent upon for ma'crials, but as geld when taken from the eaith is net what it is after it has un dergone the skill of the mechanic, se natuic changes under the genius of the artist. After having formed his ideal he watches natusc. grasps the beauty in Iter as she p.tsses in her hurried revolution, and with his divining wand strips it of its unessential simeundings of time a space, antl places it bcfeic us as "a thing ef beauty and joy forever," and still some one may say "it is only nature after all," and it istiuc, it is only nature, but it is uatme icdccmed, nature regenerated, natuic reanimated by spiiit. It is argued, however, that "if we don't ji.iint naluie as she is we are false te her." lint hcic we can say with Wallace Bruce we tender unto C.vsar the things that arc Cicsar's ; the length and breadth of the fields we leave te the surveyor, the study of the starry worlds te the astronomer, the analysis of the human frame te the physi cian, but the emotions and aspirations of the divine in man wc leave te the aitist. Ne mathematical exactness is necessary te be i i no te natuic.If a work of art was great in se far as it was exact then there would be no need of ait, for nature herself ismerc cencct in that paiticular than art can ever j e present her. Fer ait te paint nature as she is means only te be false te both, what is wanted is that there shall be greater di di lcetnrss te beauty than nature has. Art niu-t relieve it of its ebseuiity. We have have hc.ud it conceded that " in landscapes painting art probably is Mineiiorte natuic, but when it tries te paint the human it fails it can net paint the flush upon the cheek nor the human eye a nature has them." But arc these the end and aim of ait? We answer that there is something back of these an indi viduality in the man that he seeks te pres ent te us. We have many- paintings of our Saviour and the Madenna ; but in be holding these de we leek for any peculiar lltth upon the check or expression of the e;.e that he may have had at any particu lar time '? Or is it the general expression of thee that tends te give us the individ ual Christ, that wc leek for ? It is the .spirituality of the eye that the artist aims at. and net the physical. He docs net have te anatomize or te examine microscopi cally the physical organization of the eye as the oculist. True, he must study the science, as he must all sciences, but, as Visher says, he must study it only te for get it, net te use it. It is said, however, tliat all the paintings of Christ differ, and it can easily be accounted for in the fact that each artist formed his own ideal and painted accordingly. Yet, though the dif ferences may be noticed, we vcntuic te say that in the true artists it is the simi i.iiity that is meie striking. But wemttst net lese sight hcic of what the true artist will de in order te represent Christ te us. lie will endeavor te get a proper concep tion of his life and character through a ceaseless study of his history. And he will de this with a love and an insatiate dcsiic te paint something that will faith fully represent Ids Saviour. It becomes a part of his life. Kc docs it with a pure and holy motive, and with the knowl edge of the sacrcdncss of his subject. And net until he docs this can he be classed among the great ar tists. And new, if we be allowed te deviate some, may we ask what position docs art held iu this age ?

Au Old Politician. Detroit Free Press. A real clean, nice-looking old couple were at the Union depot yesterday te take a train going south. The husband was nearly 70 years old and pretty lively, and the wife was only a year or two behind him, with a voice that in?aui business every time she opened her mouth. Their was considerable political talk around the depot, and the old man at once became in terested. " I've been ever in Caind.i iu the weeds for the last two weeks, and I hain't heard a thing,"' he explained. "Is the -lectien ever with?" "Yes," replied one of the men. "Many liets and knock-downs?" " Thousands of them." "I used te be the worst i:na ?.w,i:iil the polls you ever m.c,"' continued the old gent as he spit en his hands. " I've seen the time it took four constables te held me." "Peter, what aie jett deiu.j here?"' asked the old lady as she suddenly ap peared. "Finding out about neiitie-." "What kind?" "All kinds.' "Well, you let politics alen into the waiting room." and co tne "Purtysoen. Se they had riots and knock downs, eh ? Lord ! den t I widi I had been around ! ' "Peter !" called the wife. "Yes, I'm here. I suppose the candi dates set up the diinks didn't they ?"' "Oh, yes." "Great shakes ! But I wish I'd been ever here. Take it alen;; about 40 veais age and after I had three diinks down it' took the whole Whig paity te held me. ' My great held was in cleaning out the , voting place and walking elf with the hall t box.' ""Peter, I want you !" called the wife "Yes, Nancy. Well, which sid" I eter was choked oil light there. jN.tnc ;. t get held of his color and lifted his heel oft' the fleer, whirled him around, and headed him for the waiting ream with the remark : ' After you have lived with me another 40 years you'll learn that when I say Peter I don't mean Paul ! The idea of you stand ing out here talking politics when we've get te leek around for a piece of bed ceid te tie that satchel up, or lese half our duds ! Pike !" When they came out te take the train the old man had his eye eitt, and seeing the man who had answered his questions he asked : " Who did you say was 'elected?" lie was yet en the last word when tlu who brought ncr i and cewn en top Ins head with the exclamation : " Shet up !"' That "shot" him. ile looked back unce with a sorrowful, injured air, but she punched him in the back with th; box and he humbly entered the car and was diivcn into the scat en the side next te the daik wall. Tragic Death of a Hunter. He Kills Four Hears and l)In from the AVuuiKts Receil el In the Fl-jlit. Jerry Greening, a noted hunter of Pike county, P.i.. who for lift j' ycats has been making war upon the wild animals of the section between the Susquehanna and Del aware rivers, has at lat fallen a victim. He left his cabin en the 22d of November. and a friend, who was also a hunter, ascci taining that he had net returned, two days ' afterward set out en a hunt for him, with two or three neighber.3. The dogs were j put en the scent, and in the centre of a swamp, en a little knell covered with spruce trees, were found the bodies of four large bears, with bloody gashes upon their hides. In the midst was the disjointed skeleton of a man, which they seen identi lied as that of the old hunter. A survey en the ground showed that Jerry had met the bears, and in fighting them received wounds that caused his death, but net be fore he had inflicted mortal injmies upon the bears. The remains of Jerry had fur nished a feast subsequently toether carniv orous animals. His friends collected the bones, his gun, knife, tobacco box a'nd ether articles, and carried them te Jerry's hut. One of the bears was skinned and converted into a tempo rary sack for the remains. His funeral took place en Sunday, the sermon being conducted by an aged may named Men ill, who had long been a friend and frequent visitor te Jerry's hut. The rude coffin was deposited in a grave en the summit of a hill overlooking a beautiful mountain landscape. A slab of sl.xti marks the spot, with the following inscription scrawled in rude letters : " Here lays the bones of Jerry Greening. lie was cat by Bears in the Big Swamp en the 20 day of nevember, 1880. His seal is in Heaeu." The deceased was a native of Tennessee, and was born in 1800, his parents being English and among the earliest settlcis of his native state. His parents were lich and he was educated in a Southern insti tution, but wa3 driven from home because he refused te marry a girl selected by his parents. His hut was filled with trophies of the chase. There were 3S1 bear tails. 224 fox cars, 348 wild-cat paws and -122 rattlesnake fangs. He was the owner of many costly little prcsents,ivcn te him by members of the "3Iinsi Pioneers," a so ciety of wealthy Philadclphians, whom he had often guided ever the game region with which he was se well acuti.iinted. The Stene Child. Death of a Unman Wonder. Fer a long time past medical men, as well as the public at larcc of northern Ohie, have been astenishsd at the contin ued existence and growth of a child of A.J. Kniacly, of New Philadelphia, whec flesh was as hard as stone. All efforts te ren der the little one like ordinary chil dren proved unavailing, although Itro sums of money were spent .'n the attempt. Prominent show men heard of the phenomenon and offered te give an immense amount for the privi lege of exiiibitiug the child, but this the patents would net allow, although it was treated in the p;esencc of prominent phy sicians and medical men in Cleveland. At length the singular being has died, and tne uesire en the part of doctors an i elhers te get possession of the body is se great that it has been placed by the parents :u a strong vault, which is constantly guarded by faithful watchmen. The child is creating as much sensation dead as liv inir. Judge Black Tot::e.Jellersen Democratic Association of Yerk. Bkeckie, Dec. G, 1880. Gentlcuien : I have been notified of my election as a member of your association. Accepting the honor with many thanks, I join with alac.ity and premise, te be as use ful as I can. I need hardly say that associ ations like yours may be made te serve' most important practical purposes. The mere piofessien of sound doctrines, and the piomuJiraUen of them, en the eve of an exciting election, are inefiecfual meth ods of making them successful. The whole armor of truth cannot be buckled en in a minute, and if the fight catches us naked and unprcpired, wc must ox ex pect te be worsted. It is wise te beciu as e.uly as possible te consider and te spread the piinciples which are te save us when .a-.ieiiier assault snail oe made. l.uilil up the barriers new while there is yet time, and entrench yourselves against strong government, which means despotic rule, weak laws and helpless people. This can not be done without some patient labor ?nd the careful diffusion of sound prin cipies line upon Hue and precept upon precept here a little and there a little, confirming our own faith and spreading it a'oiead. Remember tee, that we need some corrections ; for though the party of Teficisen has never been untrue te itself, it has very often made a half hearted de fence. In moments of error and alarm, v.e have sometimes departed from the straight track. When wc find that te be the case, let us retrace our steps and come back without hesitation te the only read that can lead us te peace and safety. I find everywhere that Democratic as sociations are forming for mutual instruc tien m tltc things that make for the polit ical salvation of the country. These properly maintained, there will be no mere divisions and no mere disasters. Your obedient servant, J. S. Black. When .
