The Apollo Belvedere in New Light.
The APOLLO is one of the few
,antiques
admiration for which is not merely technical;
but Is expanded throughout the cultivated
circles Of society. A new theory . for the much
criticised attitude of the figure is found in the
following paper, translated for Litteles
• ing Age from the Bremen Weser Zeitung.
Considering the origin of the essay, we are in
no hurry to credit the Bremen sculptor'Stein
hiluser's discovery with all the importance
claimed for it in what may be a kind of local
puff; we shall wait mitt the artist publishes
casts of his duplicate Apollo before we admit
that in it "all the forms are carved more
grandly and powerfully." Our readers, who
will find at the Academy the masterpiece of
Steinliflueer as well as a clean cast of the
Apollo, will at least be interested in read
ing the article. We may say that we
find nothing, • among its arguments
to disprove the theory that the
Belvedere Apollo is a copy from some
bronze; the treatment of the hair and dra
pery"seems to us almost proof positive, and
the fact that the curtain is found omitted in a
Email bronze imitation two feet high, which
besides exhibits other differences, has much
less to do with the question than the intrinsic
marks of plastic treatment:
"The statue of Apollo is the highest art
ideal'among all the works of antiquity that
have escaped destruction." With those
words Winckelmann introduced his spirited
description of the Vatican Apollo, a descrip
tion which he desired to lay at the feet of the
statue, "like the wreaths of those who could
net reach the head of the divinities they
would have crowned." At the time Winckel
mann thus wrote, the sculpture of the epoch
of Phidias, destined to work so substantial a
change in the notion of the state of Greek art,
was not yet known; and what he said of his
favorite statue was the common judgment of
his own and previous tines. Since then
opinion as to the artistic merit of the Vatican
Apollo has assumed quite a different aspect,
and from being excessive in praise has ot'late
become often too severe in fault-finding;
yet in spite of a multitude of criticisms, in
spite of the obscurity of the motif repre
sented, the traditional preference for the
Vatican statue has maintained itself. If on
account of its numerous defects it could no
longer be esteemed a work of the highest
order, all the more jealously were its excel
lences vindicated; amateurs, artists?. and the
learned-in art found it an inextinguishable
source of enjoyment as well as occasion for
the meet serious study, and it may be affirmed
that to-day the Apollo Belvedere is still the
best known work of ancient statuary. The.
current decade has brought revelations which
have frilly insured the understanding of the
motif represented, and materially advanced
the question as to the originality of the statue,
and its place in the development of art. It
may therefore be appropriate to set forth,
briefly and in connection, these revelations,
and i the results deduced from them by archer
oloeleseffnce.
The Apollo was found in the neighborhood
of the harbor of Porto d'Anzo, the ancient
Latium. Antium, situated in a charming re
gion on the coast of Latium, was, in the last
days of the Republic, a favorite resort of the
Roman nobility, and later of the first empe
rors; flourishing at its height under Nero,
who, like Caligula, born here, restored the
harbor and embellished the place with palaces
and sumptuous villas. The coincidence of
many circumstances has made it highly pro
bable that the Apollo was formerly used to
adorn a villa of Nero's, perhaps not without
reference to that emperor, who loved to com
pare himself to the Pythian god, and to be
portrayed in his image. The statue was se
cured by Cardinal Julius de Medici and car
ried to the Palazzo Colonna, but afterwards,
when tne Cardinal had become Pope Julius
IL, was set up in the Vatican in the palace
Belvedere, from which it has since been com
monly called.
It was in avery fair state of preservation,
the head—incontestably the finest part—
being entirely uninjured; the legs were ma
terially damaged; the fingers of the right
hand were lost; the right arm was broken in
two places, and lay originally, in its lower
portion, somewhat nearer the body; the left
forearm, from where the mantle rests upon
it, was wanting, and like the rest was re
stored by Montorsoli in 1532.
The god wore at his back a quiver, of
which some parts are unquestionably ancient,
and Montorsoli accordingly placed in the left
hand a piece of a bow; which, as was CU3-
binary in ancient art, was thus only slightly
indicated. Scarcely any other restoration
could have appeared possible, and yet it was
the beginning of an error which, for more
than three centuries has prevented a true in
tei pretauon of the statue, and could not be
dispelled, till the beginning of the present
decade, by means of a statue which then
la came known.
Of course all who have sought to explain
the action of Apollo as here exhibited nave
proceeded on the presumption that he held a
bow in his left hand; the majority thinking
that the moment immediately succeeding the
discharge of the arrow was represented; An
aelm Feuerbach alone endeavoring to prove
that the god was only on the point of shoot
ing, or at least had the air of just meaning to
let-fly. The mark was supposed to be the
dragon Pytho, or the children of Niobe,or the
humenides, who, in the .pursuit of Orestes,
bad intruded upon the sanctuary of the god.
But all these attempts at explanation could
not stand before an uuprejudiced criticism of
the statue and of the attitude bestowed upon
it by the artist. The god's gaze is turned in
one direction, his steps in another—a want
*f unity in the treatment fur which no satis
factory hypothesis could be framed from the
former interpretations. Moreover the god is
represented at a moment when of a sudden
he.cheeks a motion which was evidently ra
pid and continuous, as shown by the back
ward bent body and the vertical fall of the
mantle. He has not reached the quiet posi
tion necessary for shooting, and if he would
prepare for it, at least the right hand must
make a movement towards the bow, or atm iv
traces of an arrow in the same plane with it,
neither of which is the case. On the other
hand it cannot be assumed that Apollo has
aheady discharged the arrow; fur when could
that have happened? It is physically ioapos-
Bible to shoot while walking; or had the god
peinaps shot before the beginning of the MO•
lion, at d during this have kept his arms in so
natural a
.posiliun?—a positionde_pri xrP , Ulf the -
in ""ltary unity in_so far as -the- left,--arin
would still be found in the shooting posture,
while the right arm had already abandoued it.
There was not a single duplicate of the
Vatican Apollo, no statue which would have
shed light on its motif, and the interpreters
saw themselves entirely shut up:to the wilily
ma of tLe:statue. Only the Frenca author
Pouqueville, who in 180 G-1815 was Consul.:
General at Janina, mentions in his "Journey
in Greece` that a certain Dr. L. Frank had
;been presented by Veli Pasha with an Apollo
one-quartet life-size, "resembling the Belve
dere a Gorgoi-head, and several objects, of
the state of winch Pouqueville could give no
information.
Not beterathe leer 1860 did the archteolo
jst Stephani, of st. Petersburg , make known
a B,„„ ue t h en in posNsion of Count Straaa
npff, ai.i . nurchased In Italy in 1818 ur 1819,
;by the a! q Of which the Drooleta on which so
many critieb had exercise/ their wits in vain,
was enabled to in a completely
43ausfactory manner. • -pc, la atititne of Adollo
..m ,bronze, sixty centuries Ligh (about 24
MEM=
inches), and, with anme insignificant differ•_
eneal completely :agrees 'with the ApollO,
Belvedere, and leaves not the slightest room'
for doubt as to the attribute held in the left
band, although in this part it is somewhat
damaged. - Several particulars make it, in tr
high degree probable that ` ; the statuette is
identical with the one mentioned by Pouque
ville,and was found together with the Gorgon
head, which meantime has been lost, in. 1792,
, mythic in Epirus (thirty miles from
abina.
The attribute in question must be supposed
to consist of a yielding substance, aS it is
tightly pressed together by the hand, and
spreads above and below in numerous folds.
Evidently it can be nothing else than the
tug's.
The aegis originally belonged to Zeus. The
thunder-cloud, freighted with , all the
destructive and terrible manifestations
of the powerful ruler of heaven,
begot the notion of the tugis, in which
the Greek fancy created a symbol 'of
the dread violence of nature : the sight of it
excites horror, and brings death and ruin.
At first it was conceived as a hairy goatskin,
then as a scaly serpent's-skin; later it com
monly ap - pelirs as a Medusa-ead, encircled
with snakes, and such a' one doubtless was
not wanting in the lower and evidently bro
ken-off portion of the attribute of our
statuette. The Gorgon-head mentioned by
Pouqueville in connection with the statue of
Apollo was clearly nothing else than the
lower half of the vigils.
Apollo- borrows the tegis from Zeus, the
nature of the former being closely allied with
that of the Supreme Deity. We read in
Homer (Illiad, lib. xv. 229-30), how Zeus
commands Apollo to hasten to the re
liet of the Trojans hard pressed by the
Greeks :
"Up, now! and bear in your hand the aegis bor
dered with fringes;
Shake it with might, and so daunt the heroic
Achalans !"
And further on we read (vv. 318-322):
"While in his hand the tegis at rest held Phcebus
Apollo,
Meantime of either host the shafts told—perished
the people;
But when he shook it, and glared in the face of
the swift riding Grecians,
Loud voiced shouting the while, their hearts in
their oosoms
Spell-bound htt_took, and they forgot their tur
onfent courage."
And here we have the key to the under
standing of the two statues. • With long
and hasty strides the god has hurried
along, to the opposing lines of battle; for a
moment he halts and, still holding the mg - is
aloft, looks back with an expression of
greatness and noble reluctance upon the hosts
which lie subjected to the terrible influence
of his weapon. In a moment he will continue
his victorious course.
There can be no doubt that the artist in the
creation of his work was under the influence
of the Homeric narrative. This is the only
passage in which we flhd Apollo bearing the
aegis, and we have seen how well the whale
treatment of the statue agrees with. the situa
tion depicted by the poet. Whether the sculp
tor simply meant to reproduce a moment of
the epic story; whether he borrowed from it
only the motif, -in - order without a specific
allusion to represent the god as a
protector in battle; or whether he meant
so to exhibit him with reference to
a definite event, were questions which were
temporarily forced to remain unsolved. A far
ther lucky discovery was to bring an answer
even to them.
In the year 278 B. C., a horde of Gauls
under the lead of Brt3nnus had fallen upon
Macedonia, had outflanked the allied army of
the Greeks posted at Thermopylae, and had
pressed onward to Delphi. But here the
Gauls were compelled to turn about. Light
ning, rain, and huge boulders came down from
Parnassus, and "the Gallic host was visibly
annihilated by the Delphic god and by spirits."
According to another account, Apollo had
manifested himself as a beautiful youth of
superhuman stature, and made known his
presence by earthquake, the falling of rocks,
storm and hail, which had swept away the
enemy. The whole legend is patterned after s
an older one, which in like manner describes
the overthrow of the Persians before ,Delphi.
Now, in the year 1860, the same in which
the bronze statuette became known, an in
scription was published at Athens whose
importance for the understanding of the
Apollo Belvedere was forthwith recognized
and pointed out by Preller. According to
the inscription, a festival was appointed in
honor of Zeus, the Preserver,and the Pythias'.
Apollo, to commemorate' the victory won
over the Gauls at Delphi; and Athens was
also invited to share in the festival. There
fore the conjecture has great probability that
on this occasion a statue of Apollo was set
up in his temple as an offering. If, how
ever, there was a desire to represent him as
one who had protected the Greeks and his
sanctuary from the barbarians by producing
extraordinary natural phenomena, he could
not well have been carved otherwise than as
bearing the aegis, which is precisely the
emblem of overpowering natural forces. And
thus for both statues, or their common
original, the Homeric description became
the model, as formerly an Homeric verse
suggested to Phictias the creation of his ideal
Zeus.
No doubt, then, can longer exist as to the
treatment in whi h the arttat meant to convey
the Apollo alluded to but, again, in relation
to historic art, with the help of the bronze
work several notable results are derivable.
Count Stroganoff's statue is distinguished
from the Vatican,—whicb, in every particu
lar, was wrought for effect, and was very
probably produced in Nero's time—by sim
plicity and naturalness, and is evidently the
older work. Thereby the question whether
the Apollo Belvidere is an original was an
swered in the negative. That it was copied
after the bronze found in a city of
Epirus is scarcely credible, and we
shall have to admit that both statues
were executed after a common original, or,
more likely, after different copies of it.
Now it has been asserted iu many quarters
that the original of the Belvedere must haye
been a bronze work, and in support of this
theory, the elegant treatment of the hair and
especially of the mantle, that falls down in
rich folds over the lett arm, has been adduced
—a motif which, it was acid, is very difficult
to execute in marble, and only to be explained
on the supposition of a bronze original. But
we now know an antique duplicate in bronze
which lacks exactly that mantle motif; one
of the few points in which a considerable
difference in the two works manifests itself.
Thus the comparison of the bronze heightens
the eredibility of the opinion already based
_ on_it t _that_the,„pres_gmed oriej nal was of ma,r
-_
The questions we have touched upon were
destined to obtain a substantial furtherance
through a third important discovery, whose
significance for the judgment of the Vatican
statue was set forth by Dr. Kekule in a paper
read at Rome betore the Archtellugical
Institute. In the summer of 186 G, to wit, the
well-known sculptor Steinhauer, a native,of
Bremen, discovered and purchased at a
marble-cutter's a marble head, lying amid a
heap of rubbish, which bore a surprising
resemblance to that of tbe Apollo Belvedere.
Its origin cannot be exactly ascertained, but
several circumstances indicate that it was
found at Rome. The nose and a portion of
the hair were wanting, and the upper lip was
somewhat damaged; for the rest, in every
particular, such an agreement was displayed
with the head of the Apullo Belvedere, that
it seemed necessary to believe not
that both works were executed after
a common original, but that one is
a direct copy of the other. However much
the Vatican Apollo has been condemned, no

Greek art'; the Vatican, Apollo seemed in
comparison a closely executed "copy, but' with
an unmistakable striving after- softness and
elegance. It has been opp?rtunely
conjectured that among the numerous monu
ments reckoned at more 'than five hun
dre.d-,which Nero took from the IMphie
sanctuary, the original of the Vatican statue
was brought to Rome. Perhaps we , have in
the Steinhituser Apollo a fragment pf this
original, at least a very faithful reproduction
of it, while the Apollo Belvedere is a copy
executed in the taste of the early empire for
one of the villas of Antium. The composi
tion, which is calculated to be seen from a
single point of view, is opposed to the nature
of the more ancient art, and therefore it may
not be supposed that perhaps the overthrow
of the Persians before Delphi, attributed to
the interposition of Apollo, soon afterwards
occasioned the production of the original ;
much rather shall we be forced to assign its
origin to the time which succeeded the vic
tory over the Gauls.
Curious Indium' Ceromonials—Mtaking
••ucdicitio
•
[From the Daily Wisconaini
Some three hundred Winnebagoes had a
great medicine dance a day or two since near
Tunnel City. It was the largest gathering
they have had for many years. The dance com
menced at sundown on Monday evening, and
lasted till the evening following. Desiring to
be "in" at this moat wonderful and mysteri
one of Indian gatherings, I reached the Tun
nel about ten o clock. With the friendly aid
of a lantern and a hand-car, some boys of us
took the back track for a mile west. We
then struek the Indian trail a mile or so
through the woods to the north, where we
found the grand encampment. The night
was dark, but the camp-fires of sixty wig
wams lit up the forest far and wide. Near
the centre of the encampment was the great
medicine wigwam. It was brilliantly illuati
tinted and the orgies were in full blast. As
I approached the wigwam the sentinel met me
at the closed entrance. "Inkah-do-quatch-a,"
said he ; "no go in." This was a stumper
and disappointment, but I was prepared for
emergencies. I recognized the sentinel in his
blue military coat. It was Nau-he-gab, one
of the six Winneboga braves who were in
Sherman's great march. I had a small flask
and a few stamps in my pocket. In a brief
space I was snugly cornered inside.
The medicine dance among the Indians is
purely religious in its origin. None but
those who have been initiated are allowed to
juin it. To be a Medicine man or a Medicine
woman is the great thing among the Winne
bagoes. Only the better class can afford it.
It costa from $5 to $l5O to be initiated—that
is, to make the presents and provide for the
dinner and feast. All the Indians fast during
the day preceding. The great wigwam is
open only to medicine men and women.
Sentinels are posted outside. At dark the
lights are struck inside and the unearthly
pow wow of rattles, drums, chants and
cheeches commences.
From my corner by the doorway could be
seen the whole splendor of the great wig
wam. The structure was over a hundred feet
long. The ground had been shav&i . dear of
grass and was smooth as a floor. The sides
were thickly bedded with fresh fern leaves.
A bnght row of lights set on poles gleamed
down the centre, while a blazing wood fife
shone up from the farther end. The Indians,
about half and half as to sexes, were closely
squatted along the whole length on either
side. Half a dozen were beating drums,
shaking rattles and singing in low gutturals
around the wood fire. The rest held solemn
as a graveyard.
The dress of the medicine squaws would
put Mad. Demorest to shame. Many were
rigged out like princesses. No two were alike.
Every one had on a new calico skirt, petti
coat, fancy blanket, sash, legging and mocca
sins, Bet off with every possible trick of finery
and ribbons. Beads rings, trinkets, wrist
ets, bracelets and earbolts giestened in pro
fusion. Little bells jingled from their leg
gings. Months bad been spent in trimming off
their petticoats with bits of silk and beadwork.
Every cheek was painted with the brightest
vermilion and yellow, and crossed or circled
with a line of blue. The men were less "got
up.'' Many had showy head gear, and some
had elaborate breech clouts stitched with
beads. A dozen or more bad borrowed coats
from white folks for the occason. Old "Four
Deers," horn Portage, who got up the dance,
had on a yellow scarf and a black silk shirt.
His head was girdled with long red deer's
hair, hung with ribbons, feathers, eagle quills
and snake rattles. Little Fish had the lower
half of his face painted blue. Nearly all had
stripes of red across their faces. dotted with
yellow and blue. All the young bucks were
lavish with paint and feathers, while the two
old chiefs "Dandy" and "Carrimoonc," pre
served their every day plainness But the most
noticeable feature of all was their marvellous
medicine bags.
These were generally of otter skins, made
up whole. Most of them were large and of
the finest fur, lined with silk and beadwork.
The mouths of each skin were hung with scar
let feathers. They were carried in front, like
muffs, with the tails reaching to the ground.
No profane bands are allowed to touch them.
They contain the wonderful medicine, and are
held and guarded as sacred.
The ceremonies during the night were as
solemn as a Quaker prayer meeting. Speeches,
marches, songs, and all kinds of mystical and
musical ding-dongs were kept up tall sunrise.
The different songs had different ceremonies
attending. Indians, by ones and twos, filed
up and down the long lines, swinging their
hands to each Indian as they passed. A. lo
grunt was beard with each motion of the
band. Presently the old medicine man arose,
and for ten minutes followed a rapid, jerking
"talk" with the Great Spirit. I ciluld gather
only the drift of their talk. They mention
the names of Indians who have died slime
their last medicine dance. Tney recount the
everyday events of their life, which can never
happen to them again on earth. They then
picture their occupations In the Spirit Land,
killing their foes, or chasing the game over
the happy hunting grounds. These ghostly
recitals -are listened-tp _with--the stillness - of.
death. FolloWing theif u talenemnes a chant
or song, attended by rattle or drum. The old
men lead off for a strain or two, when the
squaws join in the refrain. No words can
describe these wild harmonies of the "forest
maidens." They seemed to have learned
their music from the muskrats in their cabins
and the blackbirds in the fields.
The tobacco song is one of the most im
pressive. As the leading medicine man walks
around the wood fire, dropping handfuls of
tobacco in the flames, the whole camp joins
in the chorus :
Tan-ne-nah ho I Tan-ne-nab ho !
Tan-ne nah hah ! Tau-ne-nah hab!
Meanwhile drums and rattles keep up a din
loud enough to frighten the Great Spirit out
of his wits. The whisky or Padg-a-ne nab
song takes a more seductive turn, and a sip
from the passing bottle makes all right with
the spirit above and below. Alter the to
bßcco song is finished the peace pipe is
lightea and' passes - the rounds, each one•
taking a whiff or two and giving a grunt of
satisfaction in return.
The dancing propemset in .about , daylight,
and was alternated witliehante, speeches and
marches as before. When the dancing
menced the sides of the great 'wigwams were
thrown outwards, thus affording open views
to all. Sometimes'ility, 13oniecimes a' hun
iired joined in the dance up and down the
wigwam. The squaws have a sort of side
long hop motion, with both feet together;
while the men jerk up one leg . at a time,
reminding one of the turkey in the picture
,dancingon hot ashes.
This most exciting ceremony commenced
about noon and lasted an hour. I shall not
attempt to describe it. Suffice it to say that
the "victim" of the occasion was the son of
old "Four Deere," a tall, long-haired; dull
eyed gawky of twenty summers. Old "Four
Deers" bad brought in presents of blankets,
calico, and petticoat cloth, worth over a
hundred and twenty dollars., After a'deal of
flummery the young man was seated on a
pile of blankets at the open end of the wig
wam. The great medicine chief then came
tearing down like a mad buffalo from the op
site end of the wigwam with the nose of the
terrible medicine bag pointed at him; rushes
upon his victim with a deafening shout—
stabs
him with his medicine bag—dead falls
the victim as if struck by a thunderbolt! This
is called "shooting" a new medicine man.
In due time a small white shell is taken from
the medicine bag, thrust down the throat of
the victim—convulsions follow—he gets up
on all fours—he vomits—he staggers to his
feet—he is restored from death—all by the
wonderful medicine. Henceforth he is a full
charged medicine man.

aritier.
Elizabeth Heywood writes to a Methodist
paper in this city :
"Billy Hibbard, a noted ministerial hu
morist, was a friend of my father's family
during my early youth, and my mind teen
received a vivid impression of his sweetness
of piety and beautiful simplicity of character.
I saw him often, for we lived within a few
miles of Canaan, New York, where he had
settled when superannuated—'quite an appro
priate .resting-place for a prophet. of :the:
Lord,' as he said in his usual pleasant way.
"I well remember my first sight of' him. I
was at the house of the Methodist preacher
in West Stockbridge. It was a cold day of
the season, when fall shakes hands with win
ter; the wind was blowing a gale; and we saw
approaching, in the distance, an old boat
shaped wagon, and in it a manly figure in a
cloak,which the wind was distending into the
shape of a balloon. Does the present genera
tion of Methodists remember the old camlet
cloak of the itinerant,' wonder,cut in straight
breadths, and gathered full into a high,square
collar, lined with the fur of some animal
not described in the books of natural history,
nor found—walking the earth, that I have
ever seen, and flowing out in ample folds,and
reaching down to the feet ? I have always
had a deep reverence for the garment,though
my recollections of it were not of the serious
. kind; for, when a little girl, and comparing
notes with brothers and sisters on favorite
ministers, I always carried the point, that the
`funniest men' came not up to the door in
shining broadcloth, but in camlet. And such
material,taking it in two senses,now alighted
from the old wagon; and as it came toward
the house, ands droll face was jest visible at
the opening of the wide cloak collar, the
minister got up and made breathless haste to
open the door; for ho knew and loved the
`funny man' under camlet at this time.
"'Now, did I scare ye?' asked the visitor
as he entered, and saw the looks of curiosity
on the faces of the younger part of the bouse
hold. `l'm Billy Hibbard, and that is the
Gospel-chariot at your door!'
"We all laughed, unbecoming-as it may
seem; but that was the name he had given
his old wagon which had carried him over
the `ups and downs' of the itineracy; and
when we laughed, he did so too, for he liked
his oddities to be appreciated. He would not
be seated, nor would he let the numerous
eager hands outstretched to receive it take
hold of the camlet cloak. `d merciful man
is merciful to his beast,' said he, following
the minister, who was going out to take care
of the steed harnessed to the Gospel-chariot.
SERMON TO TILE MORMONS.
"Sometime before Mr. was stationed
in West Stockbridge, Mormonism had made
inroads upon the village, taking captive some
of the prominent members of the Methodist
Church; and so infatuated were they with
this folly, that they would come into the
church on Sunday, and make aSdisturbance—
contradicting the minister to his face in the
pulpit, and otherwise interrupting the ser
vices. Yet such was the feeling in their
favor, in the community, that the preacher
hesitated to openly denounce them, or order
them out of the church. Mormonism was a
moral blight upon the place. The members
of the Methodist Society were so discouraged,
that they contemplated selling their church
and brsaking up. But Mr. —,who was
eminently. a peace-maker, persuaed them to
hold the 'waste-places' a little' longer, and
pray for relief.
"Billy came to'consult with the minister in
West Stockbridge, respecting the best means
of dealing with the Mormons. Said he, "We
must ridicule (pronouncing the finn i of that
word long, as in ride,) these powerful saints;'
and he began to repeat to him some of the.
Mormon Bible—for he hada wonderful mem
ory--making Mr. laugh, both at the'
senseless matter'of the Mormon gospel and
his rendering of it. Then he urged him to
give notice from a pulpit of a meeting for
some night during the week, and he would
come "over' and preach from the Mormon
Bible. Mr. hesitated. He did not
think he would like to hear ridicule from the
sacred desk. But Billy was urgent, declar
ing that some errors could best be overcome
by ridicule, and proving his argument by
many ludicrous stories of his own use of the
weapon on various happy occasions • and
Mr. was won over at last to his side of
the question,
and gave notice as he desired.
This created great excitement; and on the ap
pointed night the church in West Stockbridge
was crowded with eager listeners, for all the
`country round' had coins to hear the well
known 'clerical wit' discourse on Mormon
ism.
"He began by saying drily, though with a
quiver of' the month that told there was mean
ing behind the mere assertion,that it was cus
tomary with ministers to choose only one
verse of Scripture for a text, but he was going
to proceed upon a new plan, for he should
take the whole Bible for his text. His audi
ence made wide eyes at that, and people of
steady habits began to fear that they 'should
not get home till morning.' But soon they
perceived the joke, when he began soberly, I
though in a tone imitative of the drawl of the
Mormon prophets, to read from the Mormon
Bible; and a broad smile spread over every
lace, and here and there a suppressed laugh
was heard. Then he looked up with pretended
expression of reproof that anybody could
laugh at things so serious, intimating that he
should come to something by-and-by
that would sober them. He read on,
commenting a little now and then,
till he came to a verse before which
he paused awhile, as if deeply impressed
with it himself, and then-deliberately and in
solemn tone, read a portion of Mormon
scripture, of which I remember only this,
' the devil laughetli,' when, instead of being
sobered, the whole audience burst into a roar
of laughter,' for his tone and look for comic
effect as he read 'that were seldom equalled. -
Then, when the mirth had a little subsided,
he began again in that dry tone of serious
ness which always provokes people to. laugh
the more : 'Now, 1 have heard of the Devil
doing very curious things, but never before
that be laugbeth; but Ido not wonder that
he laughed, once in his life—when this ild3r
man Bible was wrttten.' And again - the
people shouted with laughter.
"He soon calmed them down,
however ;
he managed his audience well, perfectly
imitating the ingenuity of the practised
orator, who intimates that something more
ludicrous is coming. The people listened
and laughed, but did not know how in
geniously the speaker was dispelling from
their minds the delusions of Mormonism."
whe Jesuits and Education.
The Paris correspondent of the London
,Star says ;
"From Spain we hear of a projected law
onTublic - inatructionoharr whictrncme7cpuldii
be more needed, the.hole education of the
Peninsula being, as you are aware, in the
hands of Jesuits, who, adepts in the art in
countries such as France, where education is
carried to the greatest perfection, confined
their efforts in Spain to keeping the popula
tion in debasing ignorance; insatiable lust for
spiritual and temporal power, and the axiom
that the end justifies the means, having ever
been their principles. The Jesuit fathers,
quiet and gentle as doves, and cunning as
serpents, have ever endeavored to lay the
iron-grip of their velvet-gloved hand on the
young, and thus influence whole generations.
This is not the first time they have been
.1 1. e
xpelled from the peninsula, ' n 1767 they
were banished from Spain, perfidiously,
however, and cruelly, by anda and
Charles lIL
"Jesuitism may feign death, but never re
ally dies. Spain may truly be said to be its
native land. lib school of art ever painted
the Jesuit as the Spanish Roelas has given us
'the stealthy gtfinalkind courtier, and Ribalta
;those 'men in black from under the ground'
whb.yesterday I wild two and threes glid
ing through the streets of Paris, unmistakable
in their Wick gowns and huge, hats' turned
up at the 'side; whose one pecullar'mark,
whether .disguised in one of the most irre-,
proaehable of costs,cand the brilliant man of
the hour in a fashionable salon, or confess
edly a Jesuit in the dress of the order, Is, that
they never look at you straight in the face.
Five hundred of them have arrived -in Portu
gal. How many hkve reached Paris I know
not.
"It cannot be denied that the French Jesuit
College of Vangirard Mina out the best edu
cated aspirants for Saint-Cyr and the naval
colleges at Brest,the examinations for each of
which are so difficult that on an average half
the young men sent up are turned back,or, to
use the word of the day,apun.' So powerful is
the influence of these subtle priests that a
young man educated by them is sure to ad
vance, whatever be his profession; and I have
myself known instances of families who
have sent their sons, destined for the army,
to Vangirard, not atone for the education
there imparted, but with the view of securing
their rapid advancement as well as a
brilliant marriage; indeed, in the Quar
tier St. Germain few are the marriages accom
plished the' history of which, if thoroughly
sifted, would not reveal the fact I assert; and
unfortunately this subtle influence extends far
beyoud that unimportant fraction of French
society."
Medical Eaueatton of Women In
Pitrie.
Mrs. Caroline 11. Dall writes to the Boston
Aclvertieer
`•ln your paper you draw attention to the
fact that an American lady has been admitted
within the last few weeks to the first of the
series of medical examinations in Paris, and
that those examinations are now thrown open
to all women. I wish to direct attention to the
manner in which this has been done, for it is
an admirable illustration of; the views which
I have for many yearn pressed upon the
American public. There was no clamoring
for rights; they were earned and taken.
There was no assault upon established bar
riers; they yielded to the first competent
force.
' "The lady in question received her first in
struction at the hands of Dr. Zakrzewska. Of
the best connections in the city of New York,
and entitled to the best social help;, she
went abroad almost without letters, deter
mining, as she expressed it, to stand only on
her own feet. Her steady demeanor interested
at once persons of influence. While she
worked on, utterly innocent of the fact that
her quiet walk was the theme of observation,
the wife of the Minister of Public Instruction
watched her narrowly. When the proper
time came, this lady asked her husband to
open the gates of the university to this one
studont by the exercise of his authority. It
was quite uncertain whether more could be
done. The bearing and success of the first
student has thrown them open to all women.
If women would only stop deziaiming, and
earn What they seek, like Dr. Zakrzewska
and Miss Putnam, their friends would find
no special pleading necessary."
Forrest's Antecedents
Cotton Mather, in his Magnolia, giving an
account of some of the remarkable criminals
who were executed in New England dining
the seventeenth century, writes as folio we:
"An English ship, in the year 1673, sailing
from somewhere about the mouth of the
Straits, was manned with some cruel mis
creants, who, quarreling with the master and
some of the officers, turned them all into the
long boat,with a small quantity of provisions,
about one hundred leagues to the westward
of the Spanish coast. These fellows in the
meantime set sail for New England, where,
by a surprising providence of God,the;master
with his afflicted company in the long boat,
also arrived; all except one, who died of the
barbarous usage. The countenance of the
master was now become terrible to the rebel
lious men, who, though they had escaped the
sea, yet 'vengeance would not stiffer to live
ashore.' At his instance and complaint they
were apprehended, and the ringleaders of
this murderous piracy had a sentence of
death executed on them in Boston.
"The horrors which attended the chief of
these malefactors, one Forrest, in the last
hours of his life were such as exceedingly
astonished the beholders. Though he was a
very stout man, yet now his trembling
agonies and anguishes were inexpressible.
One speech let fall by him was, 'I have been
among drawn swords, flying ullets, roaring
cannons—amid all which I knew not what
fear meant, but now I have dreadful appre
hensions of the dreadful wrath of God in the
other world, which I am going into, my
soul within me is amazed at it.'"
Is not this the first of Fort Pillow?
A Famous Kostaurant.
One of the Paris cafes to which the greatest
number of literary souvenirs is attached—the
Cafe Talma—in the passage Choiseul,has just
been sold for the sum of 2,850 f. Many years
ago it was the rendezvous of FrCderic Soulie,
Balzac, Theophile Gautier, Alphonse Darr,
Henri Monnie. The actors of the old Theatre
de la Renaissance used to gather there after
the night's work was over, along with the au
thors whose pieces they played. Alter mid
night the noise of talking, laughter and the
clinking of glasses used to re-echo from the
rooms above: How many witty things have
been said there, says an English paper, and
what a tale thoge old *ells would have to tell
if they could speak ! It was there that Dumas
the elder first related the marvellous adven
tures of the young captain of Marseilles, long
before "Monte Cristo" became famous. Wow=
