THE LADN JACQVELVIIE.
"False and fickle, or fair and sweet,
I care not for the rest;
The lover that knelt lest night at my feet
Was the bravest and the rest•
They may perish all, for their power has waned,
And their glory waxed dim;
They were -well enough while they lived and
reigned,
Bet never was one like him!
And never one from the past would I bring
Of that old forgotten line —
The King is dead long live the King
Bald the Lady Jacqueline.
"In the old, old days, when life was glad,
And the world upon me smiled,
A pretty, dainty lover I bad,
Wlhom I loved with the heart of a child
When the vanished sun of yesterday
Turns back from the shadows dim,
H may bring the love he had for me,
And th e love I had for hiud
!tut since to-day has a better thing
To give. I'll ne'er repine:
The Ain(' is thud !ong lire fhe Xiqg :"
Enid the Lady Jacqueline.
"Once, caught by the sheen of stars and lace,
I bowed, for a single day,
To a poor pretender. mean and base,
Übfit for place or sway:
That was the work of glamour and spell,
And the charm in a moment fled,
As the scet from s weak hand fel
And the crown from hi his feeble head. l,
Put homage true, at last I bring
To one of a royal line--
Th. An is dens 1 long lire the King !"
bald the Lady Jacqueline.
"Anti:yet It almost makes me weep;
Aye! weer; and'cry, alas!
When I think-of One who lies asleep
Down under the quiet grass;
For be lovetime well and I loved again,
And low in honuige bent,
And prayed for his long and prosperous reign,
In our realm Of sweet content.
,But nbt' to the dead may the living cling,
Nor kneel at an empty shrine:—
The King is dead! long live the King!"
Said te Lady Jacqueline.
"By tho One I held most true and dear,
And called my lord, my own+.
I was set aide in a single yeer,
And a new queen shares his throne.
To him who is false, and him who is wed,
Shall I give my fealty?
Nay, the dead one is not half so dead
As the false one is, to me:
My faith to the faithful now I bring,
And the faithless I resign—
The King is dead ! long lire the King!"
Said the Lady Jacqueline.
"Yea! all my lovers and Kings that were,
Are dead and hid away;
In the past, as In a sepulchre,
Shut up till the judgment day.
False or fickle,
or weak or wed,
They are all alike to me;
For the eyes no more may be misled,
That have'loolied on royalty!
Then bring me wine, and garlands bring,
For my Icing of the right divine—
The King is dead! long live the King!"
Said the Lady Jacqueline.
PECP.BE CARY
LITERARY AND ART ITEMS.
Little Women.
The conventional idea of a brave, an energetic,
or a supremely criminal woman is a tall,
dark-haired, large-armed, virago, who might pass 4
as the younger brother of her husband,and about
whom nature seemed to have hesitated before de
termining whether to make her a man or a wo
man ,—a kind of debatable land, in fact, between
the two sexes, and almost as much ono as the
other. Helen Macgregor, Lady Macbeth, Catha
rine de Medici, Mrs. Manning, and the old
fashioned , murderesses in novels, are all
of the Dineen's; black-brigand type; with
more or less of regal grace snperadded,
according to circumstances; and it would be
thought nothing but a puerile fancy to suppose
the contrary of those whose personal description
is not already known. Crime, indeed,'especially
in art and fiction, has generally been painted in
very nice proportion to the number of cubic
inches embodied and the depth of color employed;
though we are bound to add that the public favor
runs towards muscular heroines almost as much
as towards muscular murderesses, which to a cer
tain extent redresses the overweighed balance.
Our later novelists, however, have altered the
whole setting of the palette. Instead of five foot
ten of black and brown, they have gone in for
four foot nothing of pink and yellow; in
stead of tumbled masses of raven hair,
they have shining coils of purest gold;
instead of hollow caverns whence flash =fathom
able eyes eloquent of every damnable passion, they
have limpid lakes of heavenly blue; and their
worst sinners are in all respects fashioned as
much' after the outward semblance of the ideal
saint as can well be managed. The original no
tion was a very good one, and the revolution did
not come before it was wanted; but it has been a
little o erdone of late, and we are threatened
with as great a surfeit of small-limbed, yellow
headed criminals as we have had of the man-like
black. Ono gets weary of the most perfect
modellin time, if too constantly repeated, as
now, when we have all begun to feel that the re
sources of the angel's face and demon's soul have
been more heavily drawn on than is quite fair.
and that, given "heavy braids of golden hair,"
"bewildering blue eyes," "a small, lithe
frame," and special delicacy of feet and ,hands,
we are booked for the companionship, through
three volumes, of a young person to whom
Measalin.a or Lucretia Borgia was a mere
novice.
And yet there is a physiological truth in this
association of energy with smallness; perhaps,
also. with a certain tint of yellow hair, which,
with a dash of red through it, is decidedly sug
gestive of nervous force. Suggestivenessandeed,
does not go very far in an argument; but the fre
quent connection of energy and smallness in wo
man is a thing which all may verify in their own
circles. In daily life, who is the really formidable
woman to encounter?—the black-browed, broad
shouldered giantess, with arms almost as
big in the girth as a man's ? or the
pert, smart, trim little female, with no more
biceps than a ladybird, and of just about equal
strength with a sparrow? Nine times out of
ten, the giantess with the heavy shoulders and
broad black eyebrows is a timid, feeble-minded,
good•tempered person, incapable of anything
harsher than a mild remonstrance with her maid,
or a gentle chastisement of her children. Niey
times out of ten her husband has her in hand in
the most perfect working order,so that she would
swear that the moon shone at midday if it were
his pleasure that she should make a 'fool of her
self en that direction. One of the most obedient
and indolent of earth's daughters, she gives no
trouble to any one save the trouble of rousing,
exciting, and setting her going; while, as for the
conception or execution of, any naughty piece of
self-assbrtion, she is as utterly incapable as if she
were a clhld unborn, and demands nothing better
than to feel the pressure of the leading-string‘,
and to' now exactly by their strain where she is
desired to go and what to do.
But the little woman is irrepressible. Too fra
gile to come into the fighting section of humanity,
a puny creature whom one blow from a 'man's
huge list could annihilate, absolutely Searleaa,
and insolent with the insolence which only those
dare show who know that retribution cannot fol

free from obedience and from fear. Who breaks

with the most sublime indifference, as if you
were talking a foreign language she could not
understand. She carries everything before her,
wherever she is. You may see her stepping over
barriers,' slipping under ropes, penetrating to
the green benches with a red ticket, taking the
best places on the platform over the heads of
their rightful owners, settling herself among the
reserved seats without an inch of paste-board to
float her. You cannot turn her out by main
force.
British chivalry objects to the public laying-on
of hands in the case of a woman, even when
most recalcitrant and disobedient; more par
ticularly if a small and fragile-looking woman.
So that, if it is only a usurpation of
places specially masculine, she is allowed
to retain what she has got amid the grave
looks of the elders—not really displeased,
though, at the flutter of her ribbons among them
—and the titters and nudges of the young fellowe.
If the battle is between her and another woman,
they aro left to fight it out as they best can, with
the odds laid heavily on the little one. All this
time there is nothing of the tumult of contest
about her. Fiery and combative as she generally
is, when breaking the law in public places she is
the very soul of serene daring. She shows no
heat, no passion, no turbulence; she loaves these
as extra weapons of Lefence to women who are
assailable. For herself she requires no such aids.
She knows her Capabilities, and the line of attack
that best snits htr, and she knows, too, that the
fewer points of contest she exposes, the More
likely she is to 'Slip into victory; the more she as
sumes,. and the less sae argues, ' the
slighter the bold she gives her oppo
nents. She is either perfectly good-humored or
blankly innocent; she either smiles you into in
dulgence, or wearies you into compliance by the
sheer hopelessness of making any impression, on
her. She may, indeed, if of the very vociferous
and shrill-tongued kind, burst oat into such a
noisy demonstration that you are glad to escape
from her, no matter what spoils you leave on her
hands; just as a mastiff will slink away from a
bantam hen all heckled feathers and screeching
cackle, and tremendous assumption of • doing
something terrible if he does not look out. Any
way the little woman is unconquerable; and a
tiny fragment of humanity at a public show, set
ting all rules and regulations at defiance,
is only
carrying out in the matter of benches the manner
of life to which nature has dedicated her from
the beginning.
As `a rule, the little woman is brave. When
the lymphatic giantess falls into a faint, or goes
off into hysterics, she storms, or bustles about,
or holds on like a game terrier, according to the
work on band. She will fly at any man who
annoys her, and bears herself as equal to the big
gest and strongest fellow of her, acquaintance. In
general she does it all by sheer pluck, and is not
notorious for subtlety or craft. Had Delilah
been a little woman,
she would never have taken
the trouble to shear Samson's locks. She would
have defied him with all his Strength untonohed
on his head, and she would have overcome him
too. Judith and Jael were both probably large
women. The work they went about demanded
a certain strength of muscle and toughness
of sinew; but who can say that Jezebel
was not a small, freckled, anbuen-haired Lady
Audley Of her time, full of the consecrated fire,
the electric force, the passionate recklessness of
her type? Regan and Goneril might have been
beautiful demons of the same pattern ; we have
the example of the Marchioness de Brinvilliers
as to what amount of spiritual devilry can exist
with the face and manner of an angel direct from
)heaven; and perhaps Cordelia was a tall dark-
L.h.ar girl th * pair of brown eyes, and a
long n se s ping/downwards.
Look odern Jewesses, with their flashing
Oriental orbs, their night-black tresses ' and the
dusky shadows of their olive-colored com
plexions ; as catalogued properties according to
the ideal, they would be placed in the list of the
natural criminals and lawbreakers, while in
reality they are about as meek and docile a set
of women as are to be found within the four seas.
Pit a fiery little Welsh woman - or a petulant
Parisienne against the most regal and Junonic
amongst them, and let them try conclusions in
courage, in energy, or in audacity; the Israelitish
Juno will go down before either of the small
Philistines, and the fallacy of weight and color in
the generation of power will be shown without
the possibility of denial. Even in those old days
of long ago, when human characteristics were
embodied and deified, we do not find that the
white-armed, large-limbed Here, though queen
by right of marriage, lorded It over her sister
goddesses by any superior energy or force of na
ture. On the contrary, she was rather a heavy
going person, and, unless moved to anger by her
husband's numerous infidelities, took her Olym
pian life placidly enough, and once or twice got
cheated in a way that did no great credit to her
sagacity. A little Frenchwoman would have
sailed round her easily; and, as it was, shrewish
though she was in her speech when provoked,her
husband not only deceived but chastised her, and
reduced her to penitence and obedience as no
little woman would have suffered herself to be
reduced.
There is one celebrated race of women who
were probably the powe'rfully built, large-limbed
creatures they are assumed to have been, and as
brave and energeticias they were strong and big
—the Norse women of the sagas,. who, for good
gr,evil, seem to have been a very lath:tenti '. ele
ment in the old Northern life. PropheteSses,
physicians, dreamers of dreams, and the accred
ited interpreters as well, endowed with magic
powers, admitted to a share in the councils of
men, brave in war, active in peace, these fair
haired Scandinavian women were the fit com
rades of their men, the fit wives and mothers of
the Berserkers and the Vikings. They had no
tame or easy life of it, if all we hear of them is
true. To defend the farm and the homestead
during their husband's absence, and to
keep themselves intact against all bold
rovers to whom the Tenth Commandment
was an unknown law; to dazzle and be
wilder by magic arts when they could not con
quer by open strength; to unite craft and cour
age, deception and daring, loyalty and indepen
dence,—demanded no small amount of opposing
qualities. But the Steingerdas and Gudrunas
were generally equal to any emergency of fate or
fortune ' and slashed their way through the his
tory of their time more after the manner of men
than of women,• supplementing their downright
blows by side thrusts of craftier cleverness when
they had to meet power with skill, and were fain •
to overthrow brutality by fraud. The Norse wo
men were certainly as large framed as they were
mentally energetic, and as crafty as either: but
we know of no other women who unite the same
characteristics, and are at once cunning, strong,
brave and true.
On the whole, then, the little women have the
best of it. More petted than their bigger sisters,
and infinitely more powerful,they have their own
way in part because it really does not seem worth
while to contest a point with such little crea
tures. There is nothing that wounds a man's
self-respect in any victory they may get or claim.
Where there is absolute inequality of strength,
there can be no humiliation in the self-imposed
defeat of the stronger; and as it is always more
pleasant to have peace than war, and as big men
for the most part rather like than not to put their
necks under the tread of tiny feet, the little wo
man goes on her way triumphant to the end,
breaking all the laws she does not like,and throw
ing down all the barriers that impede her pro
giess, perfectly irresistiable and irrepressible in
all circumstances and under any conditions.—

The April number of the American Journal of
Insanity has an article by Dr. A. 0. Kellogg on
JunluS Brutus Booth, which considers the ques

elder with the younger Booth:
"Admirable as is the latter, and in some of his
delineations so near does he approach perfection.
that the most severe critic can scarcely find cause
for cavil, still it must be admitted, by all who
have seen the elder.Booth,.that the son lacks that
power of complete self-abnegation_ and
entire identification with the char

In this respect, in 'beholding the, elder
Booth we felt that we . witnessed the very eon

When h appeared as Richard, he did not seem
to be as one merely acting the character, but as.

--.......----- 1 tore and mould, but must.cdways be stored
in dry, airy places,where no damp can reach
it. The wine vaults at Jerez then are built on
this principle, and consist of large stone build
ings erected on the ground, perhaps two hun
dred feet long, one hundred wide, and from
the floor to the centre of the roof some forty
feet high. At the top of the solid stone walls
forming the sides, are numerous grated win
dows,through which a constant current of air
is flowing. In these rooms or vaults stand the
long rows of pipes containing the wine, piled
three tiers high. There the wine remains,year
after year, evaporating, concentrating, and,
of course, increasing in value constantly,until
at last it changes from the light-colored, raw
sherry into a dark, thick, murky-looking
wine, which demands a moat fabulous price.
We began with the vaults containing the
lower priced wines, about three hundred dol
lars per pipe, and small glasses of it were
kindly given us. We then' passed into an
other large vault, where the higher priced
wines are kept, and again samples of the
various kinds were submitted for our exami
nation. First we had a sherry at four hun
dred dollars in gold per pipe,and it certainly
was a superb article.. Then came a dry
sherry, at five hundred dollars per pipe, but
to one with a taste not accustomed to it, it is
generally not as pleasant as the common
sherry. Then came sweet wines, which the
ladies declared delicious, but the gentlemen
disliked. As we proceeded we tasted sherry
of every kind, at six hundred, seven hundred
and fifty, eight hundred and fifty and nine
hundred dollars per pipe, but being
unused to these rich old wines we
one and all preferred the four hundred to
the nine hunded dollar sherry. At last
we were conducted to an immense cask,
named "Napoleon," from which was drawn
a dark murky looking wine, which seemed
as "solid" as wine could be. Upon tasting
it we declared it admirable, but it was a
sherry so valuable that no price has been Bet
on it, because no one would be willing to pay
what it is really worth. lax 1730 the house
possessed twenty-five casks of' what was then
imovin to be at least twenty-five years' old
sherry. From that time to this they have
zealously kept this wine, until from evapo
ration the quantity has been reduced • so that
it noW fills but five casks, and to-day they
exhibit this wine whose value might be
reckoned at so much per drop, to snow what
sherry will eventually become from age and
concentration. Let no one hope ever to taste
the best of sherry unless he make a pilgrim
age to Jerez, amedrink at the monster cask
"Napoleon."
The house of Peter Domesq is one of the
oldest of the Jerez firms. They have no wine
less than two' hundred andlifty dollars per
pipe, and none which they recommend under
three hundred. From this their prices range
up to nine hundred por pipe. All these prices
are of course in gold. They send but little
wine to America; because either owing to the
heavy custom, house dues, or an almost total
want of appreciation of good wine on the part
of Americans, the orders come mostly for
cheaper wines than thia house deals in.
As will be seen from' the prices, ifyou will
drink good wine you must pay high for it. A
pipe 'of wine contains 108 gallons, and each
gallon fills five bottles. At $lOO per pipe, it
m worth almost 02 cents per gallon, or 18
cents per. bottle. At $4OO per pipe, about $3
75 per gallon, or 75 cents per bottle. At
$OOO per pipe, it is about• $8 88 per gallon,
and $1 67 per bottle. When, therefore, one
buys at home good sherry wine at $2 per bot
tle, in currency, it is hardly to be supposed
that after 'deducting the custom dues, the
freight expenses, and the heavy per centage
realized by the American wine merchant, it
would prove to be a very high-priced wine in
Jerez, if indeed it were so fortunate as to
come from there at all.
A correspondent of the Chicagoan writes
from Rome:
"Miss Hosuier's studio is the prettiest in
Rome. The little entrance court, with its
beautiful flowers and singing canaries, is a
delightful change from the hot, dusty streets.
When we went in it was her reception day,
and she was showing to some strangers the
fountain in the centre of the first room, In
the middle of the basin a siren sits singing.
Below, in the basin, three charming little fel
lows are bestriding dolphins, lying on the'
broad leaves of aquatic plants. They are
fascinated, by the music, and one has his
dimpled hand at his ear, listening in
tently, when the water sprouts from
the shells above. Miss Roamer has a
peculiar mode of tinting the marble. I think
she must have caught the better part of Gib
son'i idea,
for she does not give it a flesh
color, but a light creamy tint, which adds
greatly to the expression of the statue, and
seems like the true color of old marble. She
spcke of this, and said, pointing to the foun
tain, "all those babies have got to bo washed
before they go away.' Miss Hosmer has a
very vivacious manner, a little abrupt and
very decided, and when she speaks in clear,
ringing tones, in moments when you or she
have just said something that pleases her,
her expression and manner are exceedingly
charming; and her laugh, which came often
while we• were there, is one of the most
musical I have heard. She wore a little vel
vet cap, which reminded me of Raphael's.
"In the same room with the fountain is a
fine copy of her 'Puck.' She has a mate for
him in her later `Will-o'-the-wisp,' or at least
a comrade, but the latter is not quite so be
witching. But the glory of her room is a
head of 'Medusa.' I have always thought
that to fulfil the true idea of the old myth,
`Medusa' should be wonderfully beau
tiful, but J never saw one so before.
This is the head of a lovely girl: her
rich hair kept back by a fillet from the noble
Sorehead seems at first to recede in waves;
when you see that these waves terminate
in serpents, it strikes you with no feeling
of repulsion. The face, whose eyes look up
ward, is full of glorious sadness, to which the
serpents add an idea of mystery and gloom,
which makes the beauty more fascinating
and thrilling; and the folded wings which
come down over the hair on each side of the
face gave an air of majesty to the head,whicb
enhances the effect. It was hard for me to
look away from this statue; if long gazing
would have turned one to stone the old tradi
tion would have been fulfilled. In the neigh
boring room was a full length, and several
busts, of the stately ‘Zenobia,' whom you
doubtless saw in Chicago a few years ago.
"Miss Roemer asked us into her inner room
where she herself works. Just beyond the
entrance stands the work on which she is
now engaged.L.`The Waking Faun.' It is the
sequel to the lovely `Sleeping Faun,' which
was exhibited at Paris. The Waking Faun'
is yet only clay, and is duly undergoing the
molding of the sculptor's hand. I was glad
to see it in this form, as it shows one bow
entirely the whole expression of the statue is
duo to the sculptor himself, and how me
chanical is the work which the chisel after-
wards performs. Miss Homer played upon it
with a hose as we went in, saying, 'I think
sprinkling improves hi& expression.' Here
the 'Walling Faun' has caught the offender
in the act, and with ono hand grasping the
little' mischief by the hair, is bending back
his head and looking in his face, with a
countenance into whose sweetness and good
humor he tries iu vain to introduce a look of
sternness. 'You see he takes it coolly,' mild
Miss Homier. 'Fauns don't get angry, you
know. I should be ychraned to tell you how
long X have been on that statue, but—no, I
shouldn't. Mr. Gibson used to say, when I
was iu his studio, and working so long on
that `Medusa' --`Nobody asks ye- I,•)r,r long
you have beau on a thing but fools, hi. , l you
don't care what they think.'
Harriet Roamer.

RAILROAD COMPANY
OFFER A LIMITED AMOUNT OF THEIR
FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
AT PAR,
PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST
Payable in Gold.
The 'Union Pacific Railroad Company aro building a
railroad from Omaha, on thOldiasouri hiver. Welt, to con
nect with the Central Pacific of California, buUding from
Sacra:lint°, Rua, and them.) roads, when completed, will
be TILE ONLY GRAND RAILROAD DCTWEEI.4. TUB
ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC COASTS.
The Union Pacific Company have already
COMPLETED 550 MILES,
and trairs ftre now running over the highest point of the
pocky Mountains that will be traversed by the line. Tho
Company will have a much larger force employed this
Year than ever before, and it is expected that between
800 and 900 Miles
will be in operation during 1868. There teems to be no
reasonable doubt that the 1421 miles between Omaha and
Sacramento will be fts.ignd in MO.
The mean. provided for the construction of , this Great
National Work are ample. Tho United States grants its
Six Per Cent. Bonds at the rate of from $lB,OOO to sitlooo
per mile, for which it takes a setonti Ike u eecurity, and
receives payment to a large, if not tattle full extent of Be
claim in servieee. These Bonds are issued as each twenty.
mile section Is finished, and after it has been examined
by United States Commissioners and pronounced to be in
all respects a first-class road, thoroughly supplied with
depots, repairehopt, stations, and all the necessary rolling
stock and other equipments.
The United States also makes a donation of 12,600 acres
of land along the lino to the mile, which will boa source
of large revenue to the Company.
'I he Company is also permitted to issue Its own First
Mortgage Bonds to an amount equal to the onto of the
Government and no mac lion. E. D. Morgan and Hon.
Onkel+ Ames are Truetees for the Bondholders, and do.
liver the Bonds to the Company only as the work pro.
greeter, to that they always represent an actual and pro
ductive value.
The authorized capital of the Company is One IIun•
dred Million Dollars, of which over eight and one half
millions have been paid in upon the work already dose.
Contracts for the construction of 914 miles
,west
fpini Omaha, comprising much of the most difficult
mountain work, have been made with responsible pcxtios
at the average rate of slaty-sigh thousand and fifty.
eight dcllais ($93.0 8) per mile. This price includes all
nect,sary car shops, depots, stations, and all other ins?-
dental. buildings, and also locomotives, plutsenger, bag
gage and freight cars, and other requisite rolling rtock, to
an amount that shall not be less than 1;7400 per mile,
It is not doubted that when the road is completed the
through tratic of the only line connecting the Atlantis
and l'acific States will be large beyond precedent, >♦nd, as
there hill he no competition, it can always be done at
prof:Unto rates, and
E, FARIINC3 FFOR LOOT, OR VAT BUSIES 3 AMISH'
THEE TIRES iREIITEREST 01 THEIR BONDS.
It will be noticed that the Union Pacific Railroad is, in
fact, A GOVERNMENT WORK, built under the super•
vision of Government officers, and to a large extent with
Government money, and that its bonds are issued under
Government direction. It Is believed that no similar re.
curity is so carefully guarded, and certainly no other is
ba, , ed upon a larger or more valuable property.
Tie Union Pacific Bongs are for fill tICO each, and have
coupons attached. They have thirty years to run, and
bear annual interest, payable on the first days of
January and July, at the Company's Ofilce, in the city of
New York, at the rate of six per cent. in gold. The Prin
cipal I. payable in gold at maturity.
At the present rate of Gold these bonds pay an annual
income on their coat of
NEARLI NINE PER CENT.,
And it is Believed that they will soon
Ve at a Premittm,
The Company have hot a very limited supply of their
Ronde remaining on hand.; but it is expected that the first
instalment of the New Ronde, to be issued on that portion
of the road to be completed this year, will be ready
in May.
Any subscription accepted to a greater amount than can
be filled from Bonds now In the. Company's poseession
will be supplied from the now Benda in the order in
which they are received.
The Company reserve the right to advance the price of
their bonds to a rate above par at anytime, and will not
fill any orders or receive any subecription on which the
money has not been actually paid at the Company'e office
before the time of such advance.
Parties subscribing will remit the par 911170 of the
bonds, and the accrued interest in currency at the rate of
six per cent per annum, from the date on which the last
coupon was paid.

An Interesting' Personal History—The
New Bishop of Sloseow.
The Vied, a' Rodin journal, gives the
following paiticulars of the career of Mon
seigneur Innocent, Metropolitan of Moscow, -
who has been recently appointed to fill th
chair vacated by the death of Philaret.
The real name of the new dignitary is Ivan
Popoff, and he was born at the village of
Anga, near the source of the Lena,in Siberia,
where his father held the post of church
warden. On reaching the proper age he en
tered the ecclesiastical seminary at Irkoutsk,
and was there distinguished for his devotion
to study. The surname of Popoff was dis
pleasing to the officials of this establishment,
and accordingly his name was charged to Ven
laminoff (eon of Benjamin), in honor of the
Bishop of Irkontek, Benjamin 13&grauskY•
Soon after this he was appointed reader in the
church of the Annunciation in that town,and
after going through the curriculum of study
at the seminary he Married. and was ordained
deacon of the same church. His leisure hours
at this period' were passed in making hand
organs, in ,which manufacture he attained
great proficiency. After a few years he was
offered the post of priest at New Archangel,
on the island of . Sitka, in that part of North
America which was then a Russian. posses
sion. The whole of this territory was then
under the spiritual direction of this parish.
After encountering great difficulties in
reaching his cure, the young priest busied
himself in the arduous task of learning the
language of the natives, in order to convert
them to Christianity. In the vast region un
•der his supervision no less than eighteen dif
ferent dialects were spoken, and it was of
course necessary to find some general one in
which to preach and be understood by .aIL
But in this he was unsucc.essful, although
in spite of all obstacles he labored dili
gently to disseminate the truth, visit
ing the different islands as well as the
mainland. Constant to his old liking
for mechanical labors, he constructed a
clock for the belfry of • the church at New
Archangel. His wife did not very long sup
port the severity of the climate, and atter her
death Father Ivan—for his children's sake—
• determined to visit St. Petersburgh. One of
the gtnat objects of this voyage was to induce
the Holy Synod to establish a bishopric at
Kamschatka, which should undertake the
• spiritual direction of all the islands in the
North Pacific. The claims of the new epis
copate were persistently urged by Father
Ivan, and at length the Holy Synod agreed
to the under g, and reports and corres
pondence ensued.
Meanwhile he published an eloquent
description of the Amoor, which was pre
sented to the Emperor Nicholas, gained his
approbation and led to the author's introduc
tion at court. At the Emperor's recommen
dation he now gave in a petition to take the
cowl and become a monk. It was granted;
he received the name of Innocent,
and obtained the dignity of Archi
mandrate. Meanwhile the bishopric had
been created, and the Synod submitted the
names of four candidates to the Emperor,
who fixed his choice upon Innocent. On his
way to take possession of' the new see, Mon
seigneur Innocent passed through Irkoutsk,
where he preached to vast crowds
of his old parishioners, who assem
bled in delight from all parts
to congratulate their ancient pastor. We
know but little of his active labors in the
east, but at the time of the Crimean war,
when the English and French visited the
coast with fire and sword, the inhabitants
fled in terror to the woods, leaving their bish
op to confront the enemy alone. The Meat
does not explain whether it was owing to a
miracle er any divine intervention, but the
ferocious enemies "did not molest the holy
man by word or deed." The Vladyka is a
tall, white-haired old man, of simple and
dignified manners, is indefatigable in the dis
charge of his duty, and chops wood for exer
cise, as the writer naively adds, winding u
with the humble prayer,"Forgive me if I
have overstated or omittd anything."
—St. Joseph has grasshoppers as large as frogs
and twice as lively.

Chemists to H. I I. Prince Napo
leon, Varis.
These different medicines represent the most recent
medical discoveries founded on the principles of Chemle
try and therapeutics. They must not be confounded
with secret or quack medicines, as their names suffi
hiently indicate their composition; a circnmstance which
as caused them to be appreciated and prescribed by the
faculty in the whole world. They widely differ from those
numerous medicines advertised in the public papers as able
to cure every possible disease, as they aro applicable only
to but a few complaints. The most stringent laws exist
in Franco, with regard to the sale of medical prepara
tions and only those which have undergone an examina
tion by the Academy of Medicine, and have been proved
edict emus, either in the Hospitals, or in the practice of
the first medical men, are authorized by the Govern..
went. This fact must be a guarantee for the excellencY
of Messrs. GRIMAULT ifT GU. medicines.
