.I'he Ideal In Ark" By 11. Taine. Trans

hOldtat Holt, for sale by Lippincott.
We are always glad to welcome tiA,. Criti
cisms of M. Taine. As a judge . We think he
unites the qualities of emotional susceptibility
and of broad intelligence in the highest degree
of any living critic; his
.education, too is
more ranging and catholic tart that of:any
contemporary writer. Sainte-Beuve hap a
more exquisite estimate of -a certain-kind of
boudoir literature; Gautier can rhapsodize
with more frenzy over the class. of pictures
he understands; Ruskin perhaps compre•
bends better the minds of the Gothic archi
tects; Hamerton knows more about the
aspects of out-of-doors; Victor Hugo can heat
himself more - over . Shakespeare; George
Ticknor understands Cervantes better;
Wagner can write with more en
thusiasin about the future of music;
but there is none of them, there is nobody, to
take the whole field of art with Taine, and
give to'the history of aesthetics the broad con
templation which Buckle gave to the history
of intelligence. And then, for style, what a
contrast to Buckle! What a bound, what a
Bash, what a clarion note the man has! Al
though we by no means agree with the
opinion of a certain oft-quoted reviewer who
shares Taine's fault of over-glitter, and who
thinks him "indeed themost powerful writer
of the day"—a reviewer too much given to
like what is incisive, dictatorial and pert—
we still place Taine over all the critics by the
head 'and Shoulders. To be the "most pow
erful," we think, belongs to the artist; to the
artist's estimator we assign the second bench:
to the head of this form where the judges sit
in bane we would induct M. Taine, and allow
him the amplest and most lustrous ermine in
the vestry.
A few months since we were examining
Taines "Italy," and sharing with our readers
some of the exquisite pen-designs included
therein; the journey there portrayed was un
dertaken for the purpose of studying. Italian
art, to fit M. Taine better for for his recently
assumed chair of Aesthetics in the School of
Beaux-Arts; and the present group of three
essays, as well as the group called "Pailoso
phie de l'Art en Italie," is formed of addresses
read - from the tribune in the Rue Bonaparte,
in the moat exquisite lecture-room which the
world perhaps contains, where the speaker
seems to be listened to by the colossal and
vibrant figures of Delaroche's Hemicycle
sitting in audience around the curving wall.
In the "Philosophie de l'Art in Italie" M.
Taine attempted to evolve the progress of
Italian art from the civilizatiou-forms of
Italian history. We do not think his theory
perfect, although it greatly interested us•
Anglo• Saxon readers were seized, however,
by a method ao little Thaskirtian; the differ
ence ie radical, and lies in a nutshell. Rus
kin
- loves to take up Ciesar's penny- and fritian
the profile upon it, its chiselling and expres- 0
sion, argue the character of' the dynasty; his
thifteen years' contemplation of Venice
resulted in what we think an egregiously
sentimental view of, medieval character.
Thine turns the medal. He finds dates and
the superscription; he reverts to history; and
from that h e works up, as if it were a neces
sary result, the inspiration of a country's ark
Taine studies the rootoind works outward
through complicated bifurcations to the
flower; Ruskin, more interested in roots, gets
under the flowers, and runs his theorizing
into the ground.
In •
the little volume before us M. Taine
attempts the study to which his previous
courses of lectures were but the preparation.
With infinite tact, and with that clarity, that
rarity of style which snits the keen mental
atmosphere in which his standpoint is taken,
he attempts to gather into scope all that has
been done in the world of amend derive from
the survey the high law of taste. His first
process is to examine a few great works of
art: Rembrandt's Feast of Emmaus—Titian's
great feast-subjects in Venice and in the
Louvre; works of parallel greatness, yet
profoundly contradictory of each other;
then the Leda, of Leonardo, of Michael
Angelo, and of Correggio. Such works,
.crowned by centuries of admiration,
form criterions for us; the sentence of
so many judges, says M. Tahoe, is probably
* just. (It is true that Ruskin, a short time ago,
was rudely shouting that the opinions of ex
hibition-fools, when put together by thou
sands and called "reputation," did not con
stitute sensible judgments; but no matter
about Ruskin just now.) These opinions,
says our author, tend gradually to a state of
fixity and rectitude, and moderns may ad
here to them in confidence. Then, says M.
Taine in a passage so well worded alio
descriptive of his own disposition tha we
cannot omit copying it, processes of criticism
elaborated by modern intelligence come to
add the authority of science to that of com
mon sense:
"A critic is now aware that his personal
taste has no value, that he must set aside his
temperament,inclinations,party and iuterests;
that above all, his talent lies in sym'pattlY;
that his first essay in history should consist in
putting himself in the place of the men whom
he is desirous of judging, to enter into weir
instincts and habits, to espouse their senti
meats, to re-think their thoughts, to repro
duce within himself their inward condition,
to represent to himself minutely and substaa-
Rally their surroundings, to follow iu imagi
nation the circumstaEcee,and the impressions
which, added to their innate tendency, have
determined their actions and guided their
lives."
Having by this admirable definition given
his readers an indefinable hopefulness and
confidence towards their guide, M. Table, in
his first lecture, addresses himself to the diffi-
Ault worli , of classification—to the separation
of fundamental from unimportaut traits in the
thing critioised. How can we know when
one character is more important than an
other? In this study DI. Taine bases himself
upon the exact sciences. For example, in
botany, class is everything, size nothing—the
northern fern becomes a tree In the tropics,
4'<.piarid moss is magnified into forests in ge.dogy;
„„f4.1 4 113 animated nature the wing is no element of
.o z..lchissification i it is a hawl in the bat, a fin in
the ilying-fuh,and the flying apparatus of the
articulate is a totally different proviSion ;
while the mammy, from the whale to the
mouse, define a type. M. Taine,with a calm-
NUB thaiis not without a delightfully humor
!. ens effect, applies this method to literary
1 types, and to types quite modern and imam
' diately before our eyes. On the surface of

.dandy, to lion, to gandin, to petit erevi:.
The Parisian returning froth a journey; finds
'the dandy in other waistcoats, 'expressing
himself in a different vocabulary. He is not
one of society's permanent characteristics.
"Below this," pursues the writer, "we
find a substratum of character a little more
solid; it lasts twenty,' thirty, or forty years,
about the half of a historic period. We have
just seen the end of one, that which had its
centre in the society, of 1830. Yob will find
its representative personage in the Antony:_
of Dumas, in the young heroes of the drama
of Victor Hugo, in the -souvenirs and narra•
tives of your uncles and of your fathers. It
referti to the man of strong passions and
sombre ,reyeries, to the enthusiast and the
poet, to.thepolitician and the revolutionist,
to the humanitarian and the innovator, the
would-be consumptive, the seeming, fatalist,
wearing the tragic vests and the ponipous
hair to be seen in the engravings of Deveria;
he now seems tows at once bombastic and
artless, but we cannot refuse to recognize him
as being ardent and maguaniinous.. In short
he is the plebeian of a new class,' richly
endowed with , faculties and with , desires,
who, having for the first time attained to the
heights of "society," boisterously displays the
trouble of his mind and of his heart."
The substratum of the third order is ranch
vaster and deeper. Such a substratum gave
to France the ideal, central Frenchman, so
gallant; courteous and elegant,—gave her the
Grand Monarch, and finished with the turbu
lent ideas that led up the Revolution. Back
of these lies the Attic hero, intact from Euri
pides away off to Romer, "the loquacious
and babbling hero who on the battle field re
lates genealogies and histories to his adver
sary before giving him blows with his lance.'
This wielder of language, of analy sis, of dia
lectics and subtilty, prevails over twenty-five
full centuries of classic civilization and deca
dence. In the Anglo Saxon race, a different
type defines the energetic, proud, moral, sad,
profoundly free Briton; in Spain, the intract
able, dark Spaniard lasts all the way back to
the Iberian of Strabo; in France, the primi
tive Gauls, defined by the Romans as men
who prided themselves ou "fighting bravely
and talking adroitly," underlie at once the
type of Versailles and the type of modern
Parts.
This method of analysis, applied to types
of history, M. Taine extends, through some
chapters of very delicate investigation, to
types of art models, in painting and literature,
from the Greeks down to Baizac and the
French school of an. His appreciations of
the characters in English and French drama
are most close and sympathetic, without the
betrayal of the slightest preferende, on the
one hand. for Racine's finished modulation
on the other,for Shakespeare's striking accent.
And the buok closes with admirable descrip
tions of the ideals which dwelt before the
eyes of a few representative grand masters,
such as Correggio,Leonardo,and Michael An
gelo. The eloquence and distinctness with
which Taine says everything he has to say—
his total absence of vapor—render him most
entertaining, while they lay him all frankly
open to hostility. His enemies, as his friends,
know just where to have him. The raciest,
broadest, and most muscular of modern crit
ics, he is not afraid, and thrusts with his
weaker members as bravely as with his best•
This is a book which it requires no courage
to attack : it has not two hundred pages, and
it reads itself ; that is, the first page acciden
tally read, it draws the reader, as it did us,
smoothly through at one sitting to the end.
It is got up by Leypoldt Holt with their
own pretty elegance, and with the dainty af
fectation of uncut pages. The translator,
whose errors made us very sore in the "Italy,"
says arch for "vaulted ceiling," (of the Sis
tine : page 135): doctor for "professor" (page
166); figure, for "face" or "mask"(page 162);
and Frenchities "scapula" intoiomoptate and
such names as Messina into Afeesine (page
86), with kindred tricks, all through the
book.
THE COURTS.
The Eleenan Homactde.
OYER AND TERMINKR—JiIdaeB POMO and Lnd
low.=l be case of the Commonwealth was closed.
Mr. James V. McDonough opened the case in
behalf of the prieouer, explaining the delay in
cident to the selection of a jury by referring to
the vast Importance it conveyed. It would be
shown that after Heenan struck Trainor in Sul
livan's, he raked his arm and threatened to
beat Eaton, and then it was the latter drew his
pistol. A general bar-room fight occurred in
Smith's after Heenan had run in there, and
asked for a pistol, which he did not obtain,
but secured a hatchet, an& went out with it
under his coat. Ewing in going up Fifth
street, had a bottle anti some glasses, throwing
them at the prisoners. T 134 party atlaoked
fired, but Eaton had nothing to do with it, as a
man snatched the pistol from Eaton's hand and
fired it The moment this man took Eaton's pis
tol from him, he turned and rad up Filth street,
leaving the man who had the 0001. It would be
shown who did the firing, and the position of Al
derman Dougherty, and the distance from all the
parties. That Alderman Dougherty must have
Ca en greatly excited at the time.and did not know
what occurred. He was not corroborated,and his
testimony stood alone. It would be strewn that no
lamp was lit nit Concannon's. That Eaton was so
drunk he could'not have fired. That under 11cir
cumstances could he be convicted of mar t r - of
the first degree. While intoxication was - n s
te,
cure for crime,yet the law presumed he was i a
pable of taking life with deliberation. If all the
witnesses for the Commonwealth had sworn that
Eaton fired the shot, ho could not be convicted of
murder of the first degree, as no premeditation
whatever had been shown. The case could be
only manslaughter at most. Borne of the most
respectable citizens would be called in substan
tiation of the statements of the defence, and the
jury would have no doubt in the justness of ac
quitting the prisoner.
Afternoon Se,ssion.—The following evidence
was adduee-d for the defence :
Michael Sullivan, sworn—l was stgaposnaed by
the Commonwealth as a witness in this case last
Thursday, end have been in attendance since; I
was subpoenaed by the defence an hour ago; I
am proprietor of the hotel, southwest corner of
Fifth and Spruce streets; I was examined before
the Coroner; I remember the night Timothy
Heenan was shot; I saw Heenan that night
in my house and on my dormer; I saw
Heenan in my house about half past ele
ven o'clock; ho came in there in company with
'Senator Nagle; Eaton was in my house at the
time. in company with Trainor, who kept a
Public house on Prune street below Sixth, and a
man whose name I afterwards learned was Nellie;
Eaton, Trainor and Nellie came in and had a
drink and stood back from the bar before Hee
nan and Nagle came in; I noticed Eaton particu
larly; I think the condition of all or them was
that they were under the influence of liquor, ex
cept Nagle; Eaton was drunk; Nagle came in
filet, Heenan after him, end walked toward the
bar mid called for a drink; Nagle asked for
mineral water and Heenan for whisky; while
I was getting it Nagle saw these have men,
turned around and said, "Come take a drink:"
some of the party said, "No, thank you, we just
bad a driuki" Nagle raid, "Come on, take u
drink;" Eaton,Nellis and Trainor atartej to come
to the bar to take a think when Trainor said
laughing, "Tim, the first time Phillips gets you
bets' going to slug yon;" I understood he meant
Phillips wen going to neat him or Whip him;
Ilecnan turned around and I saw he Wits; mad;
1 ; aught hold of Tim, putted him over and sale,
' Penner, don't mind Mote people, it is all right,

that lie took his left,hand 'anti' hit him' on
the right, cheek ;it neither knocked Trainor
'down nor staggered him; beforo thatTrainor had
enid, "If you hit me I will hit you back;" Hei r iatin

as soon as Heenan strucK, Eaton, Nellis and
Trainor surrounded Heenan ; . I illtild " Here, I
want you to stop this;" I ran, out, :from behind
the bar and said "I won't have Ude; I , vvant no
difficulty here, and Want you people to stop;"
Eaton was standing some distance from the other
three with a Pistol'' iii his hand ; "he held' the
pistol downwards, and I said, "I want ;you to put
that Myatt," and he did, and the disturbance
stopped ; don't know that anything was said
between Heenan and Eaton; Heenan came up to
the bar and drankthe whisky helm:Wet:teat be,-
tore the trouble commenced, and said' to me,"
"Trneks"—that's the name he called me--"give
me a glass of water and a match;". then, he stood
back from-the bar, and Nolen eadoe_in and said'_
something in a_ low, tone of .voice, artd .Hee
nun and Nolan, went. out; ' Hewitt' , was not
in, my house again 'that night, .nor never 'was
since; I did not 'see Eaton Point ihd• pis
tol at anybody, or 'attempt,.,:; ,to use it
in any way but ^drawing - in' 'after Hee
nan left I heard a noise on the Corner; went out
and Heentin; Ewing, Nolan and Borne - five or six
othepeople were standing on my corner; I
thoug t therd was going, to be trouble, and said
to E n, Trainor and Nellie, "Now you people
k o
get ou f here, I thiuk theie is going to be trou
ble, I want to stop it, I wont have it;" Nellie
and Eaton were willing to go.out incy back door,
nearly it quarter of a sqoare from 'the' corner;
Trainor was not inclined, to go, and =l took him
by the collur and told him he, would have to, as I
wanted no disturbance there; I was getting them
out when Sam Ewing came bursting in the side
door on Filth street; it was not locked but
be nushedit open..-violently; I slummed the door
to on the men going out, and Ewing 'came:crush
ing at them, picking up my crib-board; I took
bold of Ewing; ; remonstrated with him; and
Richard Nagle came and took him out; Richard
is a brother of David Nagle; my place was shut
up, and I went to bed; heard the shooting and
paid no attention to it; heard of the shooting at
5 o'clock in the morning.
Cross-examined—Adams was my bar-tender; I
think he went up to bed also; Ewing was very
drunk; after Nolan took Heenan out he did not
sotto in again.
Francis Adams corroborated the evidence of
Stallivau'agenerally, and said he started to bed in
Sullivan's house, second-story room, in Fifth
street; on reaching his room ho looked over to
Smith's, and could see right down into Smith's
bar-room; saw Heenan reach over behind the
bar, but could not see that he took anything; he
came to the door with one hand behind him or
at his side, and the Other hanging down; he
crossed to Sullivan's, and then I went down,
asked Sullivan why he did not shut up
the house, and he said if I wanted it shut up to
- shut it up - myself, and I did so; closing the
house and returning to my room; saw is man
conic down Fifth street and look in at Satan's
over the summer door; then five or six
men came down and went into Satith'.e; I recog
nized Eaton and Trainor as of the party going
into Smith's; inner thin I heard a noise and saw
Trainur have this man Eaton pushing hint out,
and us he came out the door came with him; the
crowd came across Spruce street and stood on
Spruce street below Fifth street, between the
bow windows; E lying then came out In his shirt
sleeves and bareheaded; some of the parties near
the bow windows said "If you follow me I'll
shoot you;" Ewing did start and Heenan
followed to bring aim back as - I thonght; -
they had a tussle and Ewing fell in the
gutter; when Heenan and Ewing were scaling
the party at the bow windows ran around into
Fifth street and up Fifth, and stopped near the
trimming store pavement; Ewing got away from
Heenan and persisted in following them, and
when the party got a little above the trimming
store pavement I heard a pistol shot, and then
another one; after an interval of a minute or so
or not so much, other shots were fired, and I
heard shooting very fast; I can't say where they
came from; but lodge from near Bellak's piano
establishment and Concannon's public house: I
cannot tell who fired the shots, it was so dark.
Cross-examined—l have not been asked about
Eaton's having a pistol; I saw Eaton hove a pistol
in his hand in Sullivan's; can't,tell where he took
it irom; 1 first saw it in his hand when Sullivan
was between Trainor and Heenan; Eaton was
drunk when I gave him the liquor at the timehe,
Trainor, and Nellis drank; it is not my practical
to sell liquor to drunken men; he might have been
a great deal drunker; my boss was there, and if
he thought I ought not to have given it he should
have said so; he drank with them, and he should
have told me not to give more liquor if he thought
the man had enough.
Question—Then you thought this man was not
so drank but what you could give him another
---__ .
glass of liquor?
Objected to, and the Court suggested that the
witness at. to the condition of the man.
Witness resumed—l did sell the man Eaton
another glass of liquor; there are two windows
in my room; 1 was looking out of the window
furthest down Fifth street; there was an awning
in ft out of Sullivan's door; Sullivan's awning ex
tends down Fifth stret about twenty feet;
Smith's awning extends down the length of the
bur-room; there is a room adjoining
Smith's tavern, and a private entrance
to it on Fifth street; a trunk store ad
joins; don't think the awning extended to the
trunk store; it might have extended up to the be
ginning. ot LIAI back room; the awning was high
enough for me to see; the outside of Smith's win
dow is a bow-window, and there is a window
inside, the lower part of whgli is frosted; I mean
the awning is high enough for me to look above
the frosted glass through the upper portion of
the.window Into Smith's bar-room;Sullivau'a bar
room is above the oidinary height; Smith's build
ing is not very low, it is not a two-story
building; it is a two-and-a-half story build
ing; I think the ceiling in Smith's is
twelve feet high; the awning is not sup
ported at the gutters, but by braces from the
house; it had a elope to it; don't know how high
Smith's awning Is from the pavement; maybe
twelve or fourteen feet but don't know; I looked
out the same window the second time as 1 did
the tiret• would not know the party that came
down Fifth street, except Eaten and Trainor;
think Trainor had hold of Eaton, backing him
out of Smith's; I saw the door fall out on to the
ground; all the people in Smith's came out, and
BMW went to the north side and others remained
on the south side; I recognized no one but
Eaton and Trainor as going to the northeast
corner.
Examination direct—There was nothing in the
way of an awning that prevented me from see
ing; the awning is there now as it was then, and
auv One Can see. .
William Murphy sworn—l (reside 752 South
Front street, and am a waterman; I had been to
Mr. Fox's Theatre on the night of the occurrence.
and at the Walnut Street Theatre, too; I stopped
at Smith's tavern on my way home; when I went
in the bar-tender and a man named Keating were
there; Mr. Baird, a friend of mine, was With ale;
we went in to have a drink; saw Heenan when be
first came in; there was a fuss across the street,
"ind hireamo in, reached across the bar and got a
litachet, put it behind his back, and wont across
to Sullivan's corner; I wont across to see what
was the matter, following after him; two pollee
officers were on the corner, and the other party
that they had the fuss with went np Fifth street;
Sullivan was trying to get Ewing out of his ho
tel: I assisted to•get him out, and went to Smith's
tavern again; a number of people, strangers to
me, were there; Heenan was with the party, and
we all bands bad a drink; I thought it was the
oyster box Heenan got the hatchet out of.

Men were originally. and are still, essentially, similar

wrought great changes in functional power. The black-,

term' organs of man', body. .Ifueeler, tendone,bgaments
and nerve, on the exterior are strengthened and intern&
fled in action by proper use, and likewise muscles, ten
dons, ligaments and nerves on the interior are strength:

And, commonly, as the outside organism is entsrvated
and emaciated by inset' m and unnatural expomre, so

When the lim he are weak, proper exercise may restore
them to strength.. Bystoms of gymnastics have have in

Now. it is as pessible,indoed quite as common. to weaken

to weaken the remotes of the heart and other circulatory
organs by improper use, as to weaken the muscles of tht

wan the worst case of scrofula they a ver saw, and my
chances for recovery were regarded as , very .poor.
I can sure nothing I used did me any good. I spent all
the money I could raise with doctors and for patent
medicines, but was not in the least brn feted. I wag about
a sear ago Induced to use the %AN tiAltl BIT MRS. and
wan completely cured by lose than four bottles. Any ono

limokeel, That we recommend Congress to buy
all the present lines of telegrapb, or to construct
others in. sufficient numbers as shall be found
necessary to do tbe business of the country, unite
the same to the postal system, and be used under
