TICFM.
A.tneric:
A lady-nurse, superintendent of the hospi
tal at Fairfax Seminary, Aleiandria, in 1.862,
has composed for private dirdribution in New
Englarid, a delightful lio — iite - o r recollections,
in which she reveals culture, exquisite taste,
the trick of story-telling, and a grand heart.
She opens: her narrative with a proem, in
which it is hard to say whether perfect wisp
' tation, or intrinsic beauty, most-strikes the
reader:,
ZOUAVE AND MIW'ON.
"In the'autumn of 1865, when the new
Peace on all:the hills and fields made them
seem so sweet and fair, we found ourselves,
a family long parted, exploring the by-roads
in the north New Munpshire country. Fol
lowing, one day, a winding green wagon
track, far from the main road, we came upon
- )a desolate rough farm half way up the lower
- slopes of the Bartlett mountain. ,A - dozed
sheep were scattered over the stony field, and
:among them sat a man in- full- uniform of a
Zonave, baggy trousers, gay -braided jacket,
„cap, tassel, and long , bright crimson scarf,
complete. He had-but lust got ) home from
some distant post.withery.little back pay in
hie pocket for ,the sick wife, and tone at all
,to) Spell& in sober clothes, and, had:gone at
once to work upon the obstinate farm; all in
, hie gay attire. He seemed a littlrFstunried by
the silence around him. He - 'missed the
. he said.'We had ' a 'little talk over
• the oirklitys , already so 'distanfUlthough so
awar, and left him, the sun touching the red
and the blue of his bright "garments, tending
. 1. sheep under the itileinn hills: •
'‘ /"One who sits and listens for the druins tel
d!ly seems like, the Zouave among the isheepj
crofts; the flags and the music have Marched,
80 far sway. And' yet there may' be some in
these times of gain-getting, ,pleasurs-seeking
. and lieaction'. who L eire • not 'sorry to look
backward a little, now and then, and xefresh
- 1 from the old - fonntains their courage and their
love.of, country."
The book is a magazine of the most
enjo4able weman-talk, and shows through-
Out a choice faculty of putting an anecdote in
- the most telling way, combined, as in the
'•following bits, with gentle satire' that does
as harm :
ONE OF "CURTIN'S DAUGITTERS."
"Mrs. M— announced with dignity at
our first interview, 'I am a Daughter of Penn
, sylvania. You must have heard of Curtin's
Daughters. I have been in the field with the
-brigade, in such and such battlei and

with members of any secret society. She
• gave also the details of an interview with the
general superintendent who had _visited the
_• hospital not, long before. The nurse corps

Keystone State. She looked hard at me, and
says she,' `So you're the regiment woman !'

JOKE AT "EXT"IfELENCE 3131ETLNG."
"The extempore speech and prayer some
times took odd turn& fl was present at a
meeting when a Defender rose and said he
'whaled to col:ireSs to the brethren some parti
culars °fa sinful life. There was once, in
Ertel ti-toWn, a Godless youth, said he—and
'went on to paint his career; how at the age of
twelve he smoked cigars and threw the bible
at his - gomdmother; at fourteen he played
tenpins and went sailing on Sunday; at six
teen he ran away frem home, etc., etc.; and
when we „expected the usual conclusion,
`and I who address you to-night, my friends,
am that forsaken lad,' he surprised ns by
clapping his hands on the shoulders of an in
nocent blushing youth in front of him, one
of the - stesdlest boys in camp, and shouting
his climax, 'which his ,name is Asy Allen,
and here he sets!"
The main argument of such a book, how-
ever, must be sombre enough; and our author
can touch the heart with very simple words
in telling a sorrowful story, as witness the
following:
"I beard a strange moaning in the lower
hall one day, like the cry of some wounded
creature, and going quickly down the stair
case found S.'s poor old mother, who had
come alone from far oat West to see him,nat
knowing how rapidly he had failed. She had
stopped at the registry office door, and giving
in the name, was thoeghtiessly answered by
the clerk in one word, 'dead.' We got her
upstairs and made her some tea, and she sat
In a chair by the window, bending to and
fro, and moaning softly all the afternoon, and
saying not a word. Only the next day she
was able to hear how good and faithful he
had been as a nurse to his comrades, and
how peaceful in his death."
The worth of such a woman as the author
of "Hospital Dap" is best testified by the
letters that poured in after the cured heroes
have been dismissed to their homes. Inserted
merely to show the sterling qualities of these
warm-hearted and faithful men, their tell-tale
testimony- to the rare character of the lady
.superintendent gives them additional value;
the Nation closes its review of the book by
- extracting the appended note, sent back
tb Alexandria after the writer had reached
home and friends: • .
"ireirkvz DONE 1T UNTO ME."
"I - Can never forget yeu. My daily prayer
is that Qod will spare yotir life to labor for
the poor soldier. The day never passes but I
think of the many favors received from sur
geon in charge and officers. I was nowhere
since I left home where I felt so satisfied as at
the hospital. May the Lord bless you and all
those who labor with you, and at last may
you hear the sweet voice of your Saviour say,
'lnasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of
these, ye have done it unto me.' "
JOIN RIISHIN.
A critic in the Nation, noticing a re-issue
in America of Ruskin's "Modern Painters,"
thus sums up his estimate of the value of that
enthusiast's service to education and the arts
"The general tendency of Ruskin's teach
ings in art is always right. The separate and
detached expressions of opinion are always
worthy of careful consideration, and are
'nearly always stimulating to thought, but
. are open to question as to their complete or
• partial rightness. In saying this r we mean
• not only the early opinions which maturer
thought has modified, as in the notable in

to say that it is altogether impossible to
study art aright, nowadays, without seeking
aid continually from Ruskin's books. And
as to the, questionable accuracy of some
statements, it is safe to say that the student
bad better take them all at fast as absolutely

than to close his eyes and ears by too much

The London Spectator,.having generously .
'noticed the Report of the American Sanitary
, Commission, extends the gamic justice-to the
"Annals of the U. S. Christian commission ) ",
published by Lipphicott :&" Co. Respecting

in the armies and at home, probably beyond
all parallel on so large a scale, and only to be
compared in modern times to the best days
of English Puritanism in our civil wars of
the seventeenth century,"
The ',Sp ectator quotes, as an "eg.qhisite
story," the dilemma 'of
THE MISSIONARY "EN DISHABILLE" .AND SWAB-
"One of the most humor cue portions of Mr.
Moss's big volume is where he appears. on
the scene when,
having to, preach in
a church which had been used as a hospital,
for want of help he set to work himself in
hiashirt sleeves, with the thermometer at 90
degrees, to clean it out; when he had fin
ished his labors by clambering up into the
belfry and striking the bell (the rope having
been cut away), in dropping down again he
lost, through a treacherous nail, "an. impor
tant part of one leg" of his pantaloons,--and
then found Limself suddenly summoned by a
corporal and two bayonets:
"'Did you ring the bell ?'-- ( ldid.'—`l. am
ordered to arrest you.'—'For what ?'—iro
bring pelt to General Sherman's headquar
ters.'-'But, corporal, I can't see the General
in this plight. lam an agent of the Christian
Commission, and am to preach here this
morning,and was ringing the bell for service.
If you will tell the General how it is it will
be all right.'—`That's not the order,
corporal, send a guard with me to my
quarters, till I can wash up and pin together
this rent.'—'That's not the order, sir; fall
"And so, 'without hat or coat, and with
gaping wardrobe,
preceded by the corporal,
and followed by the bayonets,' the luckless
agent had to state his case, and was met by
the question, "Is this - AS'undtty ?" The
following words complete the picture:
" 'As !entered General Sherman was drum
ming with thumb and finger on the window
sill, and when the corporal announced his
prisoner, the General commanding fixed his
cold grey eye on me for a moment, motioned
to his chief to attend to the case, and without
moving a muscle of his face, resumed his
drumming and his Sabbath problem—how to
flank Johnson out of the Allatoona Moon
"
"It is hardly worth whilei(reprehensively
observes the .Spectator, in conclusion,) to
dwell on the distinctive religious views which
influenced the Commission. Mr. Moss says
of it that 'it stands before Christendom as a
monument of the faith of the American
Church in the great doctrine of man's ruin,
and the great fact of God's complete sal
vation.' Apostles and prophets would pro
bably have, at least, interverted the two
elements of the sentence, if indeed the idea of
`faith in the doctrine of man's ruin' could
ever have entered into the creed of either, in
whatever sense they might have admitted
the fact. Fortunately, however, the works
of the Commission. were larger than its pro
fessed faith. It was not faith in the doctrine
nifintuas-rnirt,-but-brotherly-lovelor-mart,that
invented the "coffee wagon," of which a
wood cut is given, capable of giving ninety
gallons of tea, coffee or chocolate on the
march every hour,—'What you might call
the Christian light artillery,' as a soldier said
of it. It is admitted-repeatedly that the prac
tical charity of the Commissi on was the true
passport for its creed. The delegate could
not speak well of the soul until he had cared
for the suffering body.' And the very sight
of that suffering often brought with it a very
different faith from that in the doctrine of
man's ruin."
A competent editor has at last abridged
prefaced, and pres ented Richardson'a
"Clarissa" in a readable form to English read
ers. Mr. Dallas's execution of this task,
meets the commendation of the Saturday
_Review:
"Why were not men of letters before Mr.
Dallas," it asks, "stimulated by that saying
of Scott's, in which he has found a highly
appropriate motto for his title-page, that "a
modern reader may be permitted to wish
that Gloriosa had been a good - deal abridged
at the beginning?" However,let us be thank
ful that the abridgement has been made at
last, and made with judgment and discretion.
For, though we can scarcely go so far as the
editor in bttperlative estimate of Clarissa
as "the noblest of all novels," yet nothing can
be more desirable than that in these days,--
when writers of fiction, with the rarest ex
ceptions, are content either with superficial
reproduction or equally superficial outrage of
the facts of life—we should cease to neglect
a story which, while closely realistic with the
agreeable realism of primitive art, yet rises
fully to the height of human tragedy. ,
"Macaulay said to Thackeray in a Charm!.
teristic outburst, reported in Mr. Dallas's in
troduction—qf you have once entered on
Clarissa, and are infected by It, you can't
leave it.' And this Is equally true of men
and women who are without Macaulay's in
exhaustible and insatiable power of taking
interest in things.
"There is something amusingly character
istic of the century in Hichardson's prefatory
assurance that 'it will he proper to observe,
for the sake of such as may, apprehend hurt

ETCHING AND &TOTEMS.
The Pall Mall Gazette, in a sympathetic
notice of Philip Gilbert Hamerton's new vol
ume with the above title, endorses what Mr.
Hamerton says about the difficulty of true
etching, and the easiness of etching upon a
system of handling which is not etching at
all, but is an imitation of the characteristics
of other forms of engraving. A very mode
rate extent of careful comparison of the etch
ings of various styles with the" iniple know
ledge of the process of etching, without any
personal practice of that process, is sufficient
to show that the power of etching lies in the
free, frank, vigorous and delicate use of the
line; as such; and that in every individual
etching that suggestion of life, whether the
life of man or of inanimate nature,' which is
of the essence of all real art, is achieved ex
actly in proportion as the artist is a master of
the free line, , both in his outlines and in his
shadows. From this truth, .once appre-•
hended, follows the corollary that true etch
ing is one of the most difficult of the fine
arts, inasmuch as it is a most difficult thing
to thaw rapidly, 'correctly, and with just va
riations in tone. Elaboration, in etching is
impossible, both morally and phyaically,with
out the destruction of the special character
istic of the art; and it is just in this power of
doing everything well and rapidly and with
out the necessity of correction or elaboration,
that the great masters in every art are distin
guished from the vast multitude of workers in
the same.
One of the most interesting chapters' in the
book is thevoted to the Works of Mr. F.
Seymour Baden, the distinguished London
Surgeon, who being laid up for a season
through the effects of over-work took to
etching for his recreation, and speedily de
veloped gifts which placed him in the highest
rank of European etchers. He is cousequently
what is technically called an amateur—that
is, a man who does not pursue art as a means
of obtaining a livelihood; a class of persons
against whose wor' - whether as etchers.
Jrk,
painters, or musicians, a ludicrous prejudice
exists among second-rate professional artists
themselves and among the second-rate public
in general. Mr. Hamerton's remarks on the
whole subject are altogether excellent. What
he thinks of Mr. Haden as an etcher may be
gathered from the fact that having examined
several thousand plates of all schools and pe
riods, and selected therefrom some 200 or 300
for scrupulous and repeated comparison,
he has come to the conclusion that
Mr. Htulen's "Shere Millpond, Surrey,'
and Claude's "The Bouvier," are
the two finest etchings of a landscape
subject which the world has ever produced.
Of the etchings of two other "amateur"
etchers, the Belgian Hillemacher and the
Englishman Ruskin, hell speaks also as being
the works of real masters in the art. Let us
add that among the few specimens of Isis own
skill with which he illustrates a very useful
account of the various etching processek the"
first of the number, a bit pf river'epbank with
a tangled group 'of trees and undergrowth,
exhibits Mr. Hamerton's powers in a' very
favorable, light.— From the purely literary
point of view,"Etching and Etchers" is the
beat work wich has yet appeared from his
pen.
An English artist, Mr. Henry Blackburn,
having spent some time in Algiers, has pub
lished a book about "Artists and Arabs : or,
Sketching in Sunshine," which, leaving all
political considerations aside, will furnish
such painters as wish to ;turn peripatetit,

1101 Y NAPOLEON L MANAGED POPE
Saturday .Review, condensing into
English the opinions of a recent Freneh
author, (the Count d'Haussonville, whose
book is entitled L'Eglige Romaine et le
Premier Empire), thus explains the philo
sophy of certain transactions between the
conqueror of Italy and the Church of Rome ?
which have heretofore been pretty much pro=
tected from the light of discussion :
"The coronation. and, the Pope's journey to
Faris were to the Emperor partly in the nature
of an experiment. Tney gave Napoleon, to
certain extent, the measure of what he had at
one time respected as an important power,
but of which the force could not be calcu
lated with the same ease as the other forces
with which he had to deal. He wanted to
see how far he could bend the Roman Court
to his purposes; how far a great deal of fright
ening, mixed with a sparing portion of
flattery, would make it a manageable instrn
ment. And he, not very unnaturally, came
to the conclusion that he might count on a
• good, deal from a Pope - who had yielded so
much. The fatal compliance of the corona
tion was followed by a series of the most
insolent and offensive demands, which ended,
as all the world awe, in the seizure of
Rome and the captivity of Savona.
"What is to be said of, Pius VII. is that he
was exposed to a trial of which it is difficult
in our day to measure the real force—a trial
in which the fascination exercised for a long
time on him by Napoleon Was as great an
element as his fear for the interests of his
Church; and that the rest of the French and
Italian ecclesiastical world was involved in
the same madness of welcoming in a- revolu,
tionary infidel the saviour and restorer of
Christianity, and was carried away by, the
same discreditable extravagance of mingled
flattery and, terror. M. de Hatissonville, an
intelligent yet considerate
`judge, remarks
with sorrow how, under the elder Napoleon,
as on other occasions, the French clergy
showed an unworthy eagerness to hail with
tmdiscriminating adulation the last comer,
whoever he may ' be, in the possession ,o 1
power. •
He tells the story with an amusing gravity
worthy of Le Sage, of the invention, in the
bureaux of M. de Portalis, of the file of S.
.Napoleon, and of the pious hurry of Mgr.
d'Osmond, Bishop of Nancy, to celebrate it
with processions and confraternities, before
even he could find out who S. Napoleon was.
But the story of S. Napoleon is a small mat
ter compared with that of which M.de Haus
soriv a giveshe details—the proceedings
about the Catechism imposed by the Imperial
authority on th eFrench dioceses. It is too
long for our limits here, but a more instruc
tive illustration of the spirit of those days
could not be found. The Imperial agents, in
concert with the Pope's envoy, Caprara, in
terpolated in Bossuet's catechism, which was
set forth as the , one catechism for all
the French dioceses, a long chapter in
which the most unlimited obedience
was inculcated, with the most sacred
sanctions, toward the. Emperor by name and
hirfamily. The whole proceeding was con
' demned 'by the astonished and scandalized
authorities at Rome, and the Legate Caprara
was formally forbidden to have anything
more to do with it. The Legate, in. direct
oppositionto his instructions, and knowing
how much more formidable was the wrath of
the Emperor than the displeasure of the Vati
can, ventured formally and publicly , to ap
prove the catechism; and yet, after this,
neither the Pope nor the French Bishops
dared openly to express their disapprobation.
The feeling of disgust and annoyance was ex
treme, but it was silent. The story would be
Incomplete without adding that one change
in the catechism was allowed by the exacting
Emperor ,_"to satisfy The spruples of those on
whomit was 'forced..,'The Emperor had
erased - from Bossuet's catechism the old doc
trine, hors do l'Eglise point de ealut. As
ncompensation. to those who; had to swallow
the extravagant servitity of the Government
catechism, this doctrine; on the earnest rep
resentations of Cardinal Fesch, was suffered
to bo restOred."'

Are Entirely Secure,
The Union Pacific Bonds run. hirty years, are for Sl,OOO
each, and have coupoterittached. They bear annual in.
terest, payable on the first daya of .JanUary and July at
the Company's office in the city of New York, at the rate
of six rer cant in gold. The principal is payable in gold
atroatinity. The price is tirl, and at the present rate of
gold, they pay a liberal income on their root.
A very important consideration in determining the
value of these Gonda is the Irnathof time they hare to run.
It is well known that a long bond always commands a
much higher price than a abort one. It is side to assume
that during the next thirty years the rate of Interest in
the United Statea will decline as ft has done in Europe.
and we have a right to expect that such six per cent. se.
entitles as these will be held at as high a Premium as
those of this Government. which, in lita, were bought in
at from al to 23 per cent. above par. The Airport demand
alone may produce this reaultand as the Issue of a private
corporation, they are beyond the reach of political action •
The Company believe that their Bonds. at the present
rate, are the cheapest security in the market, and the
risht to advance the price at any time is reserved.

tFrorn the. September Number of the Lady'm Mak.]
In July, 1863, there - appeared in the' Lon
don a very flattering notice of
"Jean Ingelow's Poems," then just .3.l)___-
fished — Thernature-orthluniutite; — N — vith the
extracts given, induced a Boston publishing
ileum to announce the work as "in press,"
and to order a copy from London. This was
aent, and , the reprint was published in the
November following. The book became
popular at once, and Miss Ingelow, who had
never been heard of before,"? and the singu--
larity of whose name induced the belief that
It was an assumed one; became suddenly
famous. Her volume has now become almost
classic. Of her poetical works over thirty
thousand copies have been" sold of the first
volume; including the illustrated edition and
the "Songs of Seven" nearly forty thousand.
•Of the "Story of Doom," - published in 1867,
upwards of ten thousand copies haven been
sold. Of her prose works, which - : include
"Studies for Stories," , "Storkilf-tOld 'to a
Child,"; and , "A. Sister's Bye-sours,"` man
editions have been called for,' amounting in
all to fifteen thousand: copies:" In England
the volumes of her prose writings sold are in
-excess -of , the" , poettcal 'volumes,' While in
America it is the reverse. The total* sales of
her American-publishers. have reached very
nearlysixty-five thousand copies.
The indeft of !kir writings in Erwlina,though
mot quiterso great as those her are jet - not-.
far behindhand; so that may be, fairly said,
=hat' folly' 100,000 volunies of her 'iwritinge

It Joao wonder that her thottsmokiof ,read=
era shouldieske Some detainer her 'literary
life. • The passion ler an . intimate acquaint
ance with the distinguished is rooted in ha
' man nature.? Nor is it, *ben'Confined Within
proper Rinke byadne regard- to °there,
ignoble or unworthy curiosity. But, these
limits it is idwats tending-to pass. ' O ar read
ers will remember Tennyson's eloquent 'pro
test, and if a man oan feei so intiignautv
'woman whosoprivaof is the very: essence.of
, ater life,, hat , the greatest claims to a respect
ful silence
n pon such petty-details as age or
personal .appearatee. We can , understand
from Bliss Ingelow's writings-that such noto
riety would be excessively disagreeable to her.
•Grateful atahe is for the , public favor. in
which her poems are held, -she has expressed
her plainly in a letter to an American
friend:_
"I am a particularly shy person and some
.what reserved, and greatly dislike to be talked
of publicly; could wish to keep my person
ality utterly in the backgmtuld, to be known
only as a name. Ido not care about fame,
or rather scarcely believe in such a thing for
myself; but it is a gr . eat pleasure and a very
true one to be able to give pleasure to so many
people for the time being—that is; while pop
ularity lasts."
One of her adrrtirilog visitors from America
has given, by her private letter,7 publicity
to the remarks of Mrs. Ingelow, the mother,
concerning, her gifted daughter, which may
help us to, realize her sensitive retieeece:.
"Thu hve probably noticed,': her: mother:
said, "that Jean is very shy and reserved,and
think. , that only through her fingers' enda
could ,she have given vent te, r -ler heart - and
soul; for I have learned more of her life and
tastes through : ; her writings than, through
years of 'companionship."
Certainly, when her nearest relation can
say this, the public should be satisfied with
*what they gather from" their favorite's
books. "
Nor is this information scanty. Miss In
gelow'st poetry *strongly tinged by the sur
roundings pt her, early fife, and an , acute
reader can almost divine them from her first
volume. Of course it is easy, to be wise when
one knows the facts; but we will try to show
bow intimate is the connection, and leave
our readers, if they think it proved, to seek
still further points of resemblance.
BER MITI 'PLACE.
Jean Ingelow is a native of Boston, in Lin
colnshire. The history of the old town is
full of changes. Its origin is lost in a dark
ness unlit by tradition; but its great antiquity
mid importance appear from the earliest re
cords. It is a seaport at the mouth of the
'Witham. When_ the Romans conquered the
3ittle island in the stormy Northern Ocean,
Boston felt the benefits of their role. The
great canal that stretches through the corn-
try, opening into the Witham, and the old
ma-dyke, a bank erected to save the drains
from the influx of the 'sea, are attributed to
them. In the thirteenth century, under the
Norman rule, Boston almost rivaled London
in commerce.• A great annual fair was held
there; and for two hundred years it waft a
noted rendezvous of foreign merchants. In
the sixteenth century it began to decline; and
from mismanagement in the= drainage soon
fell into •its . present condition—a quiet old
town„ whose people are divided between
agriculture, manufactures and the fisheries.
But the old town has still - in its keeping
the memorials of its former greatness. It
vas early a Christian city; and ; it supposed
to have been the site of the famous monastery
iof St. Botolph's, built here in 657; the Do
ntinicans,- Carmelites, Augustans, and 'Fran
ciscans had priories in Boston. The present
church of St Botolph was founded in 1309.
It is a beautiful building, with a bell tower
three hundred feet high, and visible at sea
from forty miles' distance. This tower is
surmounted by an enormous lantern, which
guides marinera in the "Boston deeps." The
whole town is saturated with antiquity. Its
present calm industrial and bucolic life, the
cquiet-streete, •and the rich fields around it,
are in strong contrast with - the -history and
the antiquities both of its military greatness
under the Roman, and of its maritime pros-

Ms Ingelow's father 'was a country

traced his descent from a certain Dr. Nathan
iel Ingelow, wbci once *rote" . a curious book
called "Bentevollo and - Mania:,".Her mother
is of scotch descent; her maiden . name was
Kilgour and she was tireught up-itt a place
called Kilmundie, high up in Aberdeenshire,
a family seat for many, generitions. •
_ -
.Tein was extremely timid and easily over
awed by Lear, and would -creep into corners
to think over her thoughts to herself. The
family mansion had a lofty room , with :a.bow
window 'used for a nursury. It oyerlooked
the river, and was the favorite resort of dean'
and her brother. Thee coming up , of the
tides, the ships, the gangs of townten and
their monotonous made adaily delight
for them.
Jean Was one of eleven children, and, of
course,-found more liberty for her.: individual
life than would otherwise have been.possible.
She was not a precocious child, nor remarka
ble except-for her ,memory. • She was care
fully educated? and early -showed the religi

WAGYEE.
It r is" announced- in Figaro that Herr
Richard Wagner is at Munich, seriously in
disposed: 'lt was said some 'weeks ago •that
his singers were also seriously indisposed af
ter the first performance of his new opera,
"Die Meistersinger von Nurnberg;" so that
there seems to be some kind,of poetical retri
btitive justice in the fact. In the projected
production of "Die :Meistersinger" at Dres
den the veteran Lenore robustajlerr Tich

and the plaintiff was that the latter was to

GOTTSCIII4I
The Orchestra translates an extraet`frora
the Nacional, of Buenos Lyres, in regard to
Gottschalk. It is in a very exaggerated style,
but does no more than justice to the pianist,
who in his peculiar style of imaginative and
sensuous playing has no superior. The article
is as follows:
"A rumor-was circulated since-early morn
ing that Gottschalk was to arrive, and the
railway station was literally obstructed by a
crowd anxious to see this great artist.
"It was a lovely night,the perfumed breeze
of the, distant 'pampas' softly moving the
foliage,‘ and the moon was shining pale and
still on the white roofs of the villas partly
hidden amongst acacias, rose trees and 'ewe
,
daderas.'
"A little later, the passers by, attracted , by
the mysterious accents of a heavenly har
mony, were assembled in front of a small
house, a. real tnid -de mousse,'. the ~ miAlstr
of scented linshes
"In this enchanted house hospitality - was
given to the celebrated:American—Gottschalk
was at the piano. Through a partly-opened
window we could see the great pianist. Pale
from inspiration, his eyes fixed npon.the land
ecaße 9ii
f the pampa, which ',unfolded itself lf in
all tad sPlendor of . South American night,
the poet-artist allowed the harmonies to „flow
in torrents, unfolding all the, treasures' of his'
soul, and, like the musio•of minsic; gave out
strains .of melody,from celestial spheres.
"Upon" iiPproaohing nearer, the picture
upon which we gazed web-Well worthy of the
landscape which surrounded it. Twenty
