TteAUSH IN FBSNpii'AEt— A Lkttsb TO Con-
William Raymond writes in the Courier
franc** following letter to the address of
Contnre, the painter of iheS'fitcadaicc." It ia.thp
answer of a French realist in art to the Caries'
tore of the master; Contnre, in a very clever
drawing, once represented ah aspirant at work
upon a pig’s head, which he Ib copying with tho
most' anxious minuteness, sitting all the while on
the head of a fine antique statue..: In Wslnte
booh, “Method and Advice for the Studio, Con
tnre extends the satire by putting the same flgur
in words, as hereinafter quoted. Oortain strange
terms employed in the letter are taken from tho
■wild nomenclature of Couture,who in his treatise
calls the painters of smiling, nymphs, liko
Chaplin, , e the . anoelists;, the adherents
•f Delacroix the ’' romantics, and " the'
orientalists, from Ingres to Ger 6me, the Turk
ists.’ The “new school” movement has taken in
France a shape almost as fantastic as the dry
Pte-raphacliem of England. Courbot, the ori
ginal archbishop of hideousneaS, is surpassed, in
squalor by Manet, a wealthy young amateur,
whom his master, . Gleyre, once, called .‘‘the
Michael Angolo of bad art.!* Breton,claimed in tile
letter'as a TC»Hpt,is [hardly- so, but a sufficiently
decorous and .conciliatory student of' pastordl
beauty. Millet has’a stranger'siylerbut does ndj
thing to shock,the ordinary public taste;, a small
study of his now at the Academy ot Fine Arts,
though barren in subject, indicates his mastery of
tone. But we will proceed at once to M. Reyr
mond's. lejtter, which Is written, iipropos of the
present salon, and for the - translation of Which,
with a lew trivial changes, we are,indebted to the
Press: , ''
Before attempting to critlcleo the, exhibition of
this year, permit me, my dear master, to chat
■with yon a little’bn that great art of which you
are the pontiff,' and I only the humblest secre
tary. 1 know only too well your opinions' of
those ignorant litterateurs who, according to you,
have no right to judge yon, because they are not
Artists* 1
However, sir, to prepare myself for the task
Which I have imposed on myself, I have_ passed
my vigil of arms ,by re-reading at tho Lnxem<
hours and St, Euatache the admirable books,
which yon have composed, and which are the
works of a philosopher and a great poet. I
wished to see once again that work of art, which
yoh were kind enough to offer me. years elf, and
which is entitled “ilcthode et entrehens d?atelier,
' a work in which yon have borrowed so happily
the pen of that critic whom you diapise.
And now, after having found you so truly a
thinker with the brush, and so freshly a colorist
with the pen, I fortify myself with'the opinion
that the trno artist is the man whose mind re
mains open to all the'manifestations Of the beau
tiful, ana whoperceives,doubtlesßin different de
grees but always intensely, the belles letlres like
the arts of design and musical harmonies.
. het ns leave it, then, to pedants to ticket and
classify in a special rubric each of our faculties,
like dried plants in a herbarium.
If wo wish that these faculties should be fruit
ful, let ns abandon them to the, combinations
which they desire, and let thorn consummate in
the higher spheres of the soul those weddings of
the ideal which alone give birth to great thoughts
as to great works, bo the species to which they
belong what it may. -c, _
And then, pointers Or poets; sculptors or cob- |
setentous critics, we may join hands and play
truant together, away from the beaten track.
The techmcal’diffetence between us is, that you
painters give your impressions in the presence
of nature, wlule we critics—for whom nature is
not mnto, believe me—give our impressions in
presence of yonr pictures. \ .
, And now yon .will not ask me, r hope, if I
am classic, spiritualist, romantic, fantastic, or
realist in painting. I willingly abandon to
the pundits of the reviews those narrow, and ab
surd classifications and names which have only
■value so far as they serve to .designate certain
determined periods in the history of art.
Our age has this much of good inwit, that
despite its artistic coldness it does not absolutely
impose nhy system, and suffers ns to arHve at a
true intelligence of art by the liberty of indiffer-
Thus, in my opinion, every true artißt is a realist
of the first degree, for his studies are .secrets
grasped directlv from .nature. Ho is a spiritualist;
for he does pot cxCcutehls works until he foels
himself inspired by the creative power.
He is an idealist because he aims without cessa
tion at the beantiful; that is to Bay, nature, suc
cessful, complete and typical.
Kealißm as a Bourse, spiritualism as the means,
idealism as the aim, is the entire artistic pro
gramme comprised in threb terms.
-The main tiling, you say, is to see well, to see
accurately and feel the beauty of that which one
sees. I, "however, would go further. I am in
duced to believe that the true artist loves the
things which ho secs better even than his art it
self, and that it is the love of nature which in
spires him to reproduce it. Thus the artist
makes and remakes constantly and without wea
riness the portrait of his mistress.
• Inclining, towards her, ho watches her move
ments, her hnmors and her smiles. With duo
appreciation and reflection ho surprises tier most
secret' confidences, and inspires with thorn the
work which will in time become the, amorous ode
of bis recollections. Hb is, therefore, abovo
servile imitation, for he imitates while loving.
He caresses with his glance ond with his brush
the forms, tho reliefs and tones of his model, and
■ idealizes them by science and enthusiasm. -
Woe to those who do not feel art with this in-,
tensity, and who make of it a mere matter of
manual dexterity and pasticcio. It is to these,
sir, that you will say: Beware, above all, of
putting the sentiments of another in plaac of
yonr6ax.; there is the mischief; there lies the
daiknesß.
And those who'cannot sec the beantiful you set
forth and judge by* this excellent example: Take
a narrow mind, he sees a poor creature, wronged,
infirm, grotesque, and ho laughs. A Bhakespeare
comes; he 100 kb beneath the mantle, he sees a
soul, vast sorrows in its eyes, and creates a poem
where tho simpleton saw merely an object of
laughter.
Original inspiration is elevated in the presence
of nature, for in fact all is there. However, my
master, lam amazed to find you so severe to
wards the realist school, at which you declare we
have arrived step by 6tcp; while I regard it as a
now baptism which has regenerated art by na
ture.
Thiß school is the last and most recent of those ,
■which have 6occeeded since that of David. It is
only the tail of romanticism; a tail, I grant, with
out plumage, recalling the image which you
make of the grotesque ideal of the realist painter
when you say: “As for the painter, he is a studi
ous, fervent artist; in fact a revivalist of the new
school, who copies—what? Faith, it is very sim
pieTfor it is the head ol a hog. That which he
sits on is lees simple, for.jt is tho head of the
• Olympian Jupiter.”
Ah. well! let him work, my master, let
him, ps Champfleury said, return to the milk
of the'cow; It is a good and healthy food, which
- refrteheshlood and soul, causes one to reject the
- false ideal, and frees you from the romantics, tho
atii/elisls, and Turkisls. I like the crude and bru
tal truth which it sets forth better than, the
pretty, the arch and roguish and dainty with
which we were inruidated. I like better a well
rounded cabbage tlflm thejrpscs of the anyelici,
or of the boudoir artists. , ~ , ,
The great credit.of tho realist school is that it
freed us from the false ideal which we called
“elegance,” and which was so long the curse of
French art, and by tho side of Courbet, the revo-
Vutiouary and excellent (since he
has ceased to work), realism has given us two
grand masters, Millet and Breton, who by one
glowing breath made of this false and inconsid
erate method a sublime art . ...
Incomplete and. exclusive, like all systems,
realism has still been a lit™thy protestation of
. good sense against sentimentality and affecta
’’ . iion. It has restored tone to painting, and style
and vigor to landscape.
. As'for historical painting, it has transported it
. to’another soil—the popular soil. In place of
the chlvalric subjects ol the Middle Ages, or of
ibhEast, it points out to the painters of the pre
' '.sent and of the future. % fruitful source in the
‘history and in the life of die people—theheroi?m,
■ '■‘the ‘tvorfeH, the of which are . woi;th
i • all the old legends, more.or less gilded, in which
we no longer believe.
But enough of theories, .ou e?.e, my good
master, that I hold them cheaply. Painters, as
for the rest, have a horror of theories, sad Ido
not wish to inflict any on them. The more they
are honestly and, sincerely inspired, tho less'they
wlliPc prencunpiod with them. '
■I do not,.for mypart, like, museums and exhi
bitions anymore than concerts. They aro the
debauches of art,"and not its real fetes. . A single
picture In a study, or a single 'piece of music tn
friendly life, charms me Tar more. Look at a
picture freshly varnished by the artist at the mo
ment when ho is about to pack it to send it to the
exhibition. It resembles a young.lady thrilling
with delight in her low-neckcd dress while the
horses are being harnessed whictoare; to take her
to the ball. Bhe glitters aejret with almost daz
zling splendor ana style. But once at the ball,
amid a crowd of other beauties, with whom sho
Is compared, she Is no longer the Baffle. She has
paled or grown redder; the freßhuess of .her hue
ißfaded; the color of her robe has lost by com
parison, and the splendor of thechaiidcllers brings
onttoo harshly the. little irregularities of her
complexion. , : » • .... i •
But, in fact, the,, great art is not,in exhibitions.
Mpseumß nud colieciiona.belong to the decadence
of taßte, and M. F.ortone was right to call them
■ the cemeteries of - aft. There we reunito the
mutilated statues which made part of a friezo or
a pediment, paintings or mosaics which formed
pars of tbo architecture of a hall, and armsand
vases which were wedded to the buildings where
they were found, like the flower- to the stem
which bore it „
' Paintings are not made to be sadly suspended
one wall; like temporary ornaments hastily
hung to n screen for a stogie day of festival:. in
Pompeii, in the Loggio of the Vatican, the palace
of the Doges, in Italian churches, in some of our
old palaces; art is fonnd in its place, taking part
in tho existence of the -solemnities or .-superstl

It is true that our agehas 1 an altogether dif

which it is now traversing, it is in art'that it will

maintenance and education of orphan boys, and
designed to perpetuate the name of one of the
great benefactors of mankind.’ As you look
around, you find him remembered not only in
the marble-statue bnt also in the five hundred or
phans who are now receiving food, clothing and
instruction. Seven hundred young men in the
last flltcen years have gone into every , depart
ment of productive industry. Many of them
have been successful in trade and others have be
come renowned.' , • .
You represent the great commercial interests
of all parts of the, country. You know better
(haul can tell you that tho interests of tradede
pend on the productiyeneßß of labor. You will
therefore look with interest on thcßG designs to
increase the relations of trade. , You understand
those relations better, perhaps, than any other
class, and that the prosperity of the whole coun
try depends on. every ope of its parts. No one
section can Buffer without causing the other to
Buffer. This country is one in its geographical
position, language, religious-and political insti
tutions, and mutual reciprocal interests, and God
grant that it may soon be one in heart, and re
main now and torovor indivisible, , -

FBOH CAPE IUAY.
Improvements Upon the Island—The
Hotels—The Hew Excursion House.
IConysponcleheo of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
. Cape May, June 3d.— Very extensive improve
ments,-kayo beenmado here daring the past sea
son. Painters, carpenters and tho knights of the
whitewash brash have been at work, and the old'
town looks os if it had put on its Spring costume
'in order to present a good appearance when the
grand army of sea-side loiterers begins its inva
sion.
Very few changes In the management of the
large hotels will take place. Congress Hall will
be kept by J. F.'Cake; the Colombia House by
-Georgo Bolton; the United States by Aaron Mil
ler; the La Pierre by Mrs. Reiner; the Centre
House by J, McCrea. Besides, these wo have the
Atlantic, the Delaware, the National, the Sbcr
man ana others, the proprietors of which are
making extensive preparations for the coming
rush, which they look for about the 10th or 15th
of June.
The ocean is grand this morning, the breakers
come tnmbllng In with the old familiar "roar, and
tho beach Is os smooth as a door. It only needs
the bathers to make the scene complete. The Mr
is fresh and bracing.
Tho quiet American House has ceased to be
occupied SB a hotel. I( has been converted into
stores, with dwelling rooms in the upper storle.
An immense space of the low ground on the
northeast portions of the island, beyond the
Columbia House, has been filled up, which is a
very great Improvement.
Cape Island is making/rapid strides towards
becoming, more than ever, “a city of’the sea.”
■ Quite a number of new cottages have been
erected, the names of the owners of which I will
not mention, as It may not bo agreeable to thorn;
but they are elegant and commodious, and tend :
still more to Increase- tho attractiveness of the
island.'' ■
Last, but not least,' of the improvements is the
enterprise undertaken by the railroad company
In the erection of tbenew Excursion House. Its
superior will not be found in the country. It Is
' situated west of the main hotels, and is intended
especially for excursionists, The accommoda
tions are sufficient for one thousand persons. It
is neater the surf than any other house, being
but sixty feet distant. The house is replete with
every thing that will conduce to. the comfort of
visitors. It has large lawns, bathing houses, and
a promenade in front of the house of some 1,500
feet long. Everything pertaining to this house
has been arranged upon, the most extended scale,
and if excursionists fail to enjoy themselves the
company certainly will not be to blame. ,The
-company have a. schedule of prices published
which makes the fare very low. A party of 1,000
will be carried up and down'for $1 10. Cheap
■enough. The cars land the passengers at the
doors of the house. ■ ■ _ j- "- - Sure.

The Odontographies Society of Pennsylvania
held its monthly meeting at the Philadelphia
Dental College, on Tuesday, evening before an
intelligent audience, among whom we noticed a
number of our prominent professional gentle
men, and Governor-Marshall, of Minnesota.- All
manifested a deep Interest In 1 the lectnre of Pro
fessor E. V. Hayden, M. D., on the “Extinct
Mammoths of the West.”
We cannot pretend to give, in the brief space
allotted to a newspaper report,more than a shott
synopsis of the lectnre, replete as it was with
valuable information, ana which occupied about
an boar and a half In the delivery. •■
The Professor commenced with a general con
sideration of the formationof the western por
tion of onr continent, pointing ont the different
geological periods In which great Internal lakes
or seas were formed by the same force that:
caused the upheaval of too vast chains of moun
tains on the eastern and western borders of Ame
rica. This he illustrated by-maps and drawings
of portions of the country now constituting the
territories. A detailed account was then given of
the fossil remains of a number of animals which
formerly lived on 'this continent and
then became extinct, and which have been care
fully studied and described in a valuable work, in
coarse of publication by our fellow-townsman,
Prof.- Jos. Leidy, M. D., illustrations from which
were used by the lecturer to aid in his delinea
tions of the characteristic peculiarities of these
different animals, especially alluding to the im
portance of the teeth to the comparative anato
mist and geologist in determining the mode of
life of the animals, as to whether they were car
niverous or herbivorous, &c., <&c.
- Some of these animals, singular to say, com
bined both binds of teeth, proving them to have
been omnivorous. A number of species have
been found somewhat resembling the hog, appal
rentiy ruminant as well os carnivorous. Among
the animals referred to were the horse, which
was formerly supposed not to have existed In
America prior to the advent of the Spaniards;.
the CSmel, rhinoceros, mastodon, elephant, Ac. '
the analogous of which are only fonnd now as
natives ofAsla and Africa -proving most conclu
sively that geologically onr continent is truly the
old rather than the new one.
At the close of the lecture Prof. McQuillen re
ferred in some brief remarks to the practical im
portance of the subject which had engrossed the
attention of those present, stating as a fact that
the teeth, on account of their indestructible char
acter, are frequently the sole remains of former
beings, and that a knowledge of their general and
microscopical structure has been the means
whereby questions involving important pecuni
ary interests have been settled. In illustration
of this he mentioned an instance in which a
mining company had been formed under
the supposition that there were valuable coal
beds in a mountain of Russia, which
supposition was founded on the known presence
of fed sandstone. Before.sihking theehaft,which
would have involved a large outlay of money, il|
was determined to ascertain whether the stratum
Was new or old red sandstone, and this question
was settled by the examination of a few organic:
remains found imbedded in the stratum. These ,'
.Were principally teeth,and were at first supposed
to be those of a Saurian reptile, which would
have proved it to be new red Bandstone.and there
fore with coal underlying it. A careful micro
scopical examination, however.demonstrated the
teeth to belong to an extinct Bpecles of fish known
as Dendorus. This decided beybnd a question of
doubt that tho sandstone was what is known to
geologists as the .o&f, under which coal- is never
found. Points such' as these may possibly arise in
determining the mineral resources 1 of our ’own.
land. In conclusion, he illustrated the micro
scopical structure of the teeth of reptiles, and
exhibited . under his microscope transverse
and longitudinal sections of the fangs of a 1 rat
tlesnake, which he had recently prepared from
a head furnished him by Dr. fi. Weir Mitchell,
a gentleman who, as It is well, known, has
devoted much attention to of this ani
mal, and published a veiy monograph
upon it. 'v wk
