-mOne of the most magnificent efforts of
self-assertion ever made by wea — artmumr is
to be seen in Mrs. Burton's preface to her
husband's botik-on -Brazil, recently published.
It deserves to .be quoted separate and alone :

address two words , to him.

As Tong as there lb-anything difficult to do,
a risk to be incurred, or any chance of im

am a very faithful disciple; but I now begin

friends, I am humbly standing unknown in
the shadow of his glory. It is therefore time
for me respectfully but firmly to assert, that,
although I proudly accept of the trust con
fided to me, and pledge myself not to avail
myself of my discretionary powers to alter
one word of the lriginal text, I protest vehe
mently against his religibus and moral senti

that unnatural and repulsive law, Polygamy,

himself, but' from a high moral pedestal he
preaches;to the ignorant as a means of popu
lation in young countries.
I am compelled to differ with him on many
other subjects; but, be it understood, not in
the common spirit of domestic jar, but with
a mutual agreement to differ aril enjoy our
differences, whence points of interest never

—Frank Leslie, the ever-youthful, passed
through the city this week on his way to
Washington. One of his visits was to his old

of 1867.
--.A. sale of pictures took place at Childs &
Co.'s gallery at Boston on Monday evening.
A pair of English landscapes by Paul Weber
brought $375 each. Boston has a profound
faith in Weber. "Placid Lake," by E. Lewis, brought brought $3l.
—A Paris correspondent tells the following
story of M. de Flers,whose splendid collection
of paintings was recently sold at the Hotel
Du:4ot : "Some years ago De Flers lived at a
small country house on the borders of the
Forest of Fontainebleau, which he gradually
turned into a small curiosity shop, to the in
finite annoyance of his wife, who, having
kdne for a day's shopping to Melun, happened , .
to observe a marchand de Uric- d-bflac.
Thoidea of inducing him to carry off some ,
of the accumulated rubbish, as she consid
ered her husband's antiquities, struck her;
she forthwith requested him to call the next
morning, with a wheelbarrow, at her house.
On his arrival, according, -to—appointment,
Madame de Flail-Towed him a larn e had
selected, and,.., fter some bargat
got rid 61 the inconvenient lumber or
225 f. (C 9 sterling,),-much rejoicing at her hus- ,
band's temporaryabsence, which allowed her
to strike so favorable a bargain. That after
noon M. de Flers, on his way home, passing
through the town of Melun, much struck by
the beauty of certain antique vases, &c.. dis-
played in the window of a marchand de bric-
ebrae, asked their possessor how much be
would let him have the lot for. After much
bargaining the man agreed to deliver them at
his country house for 325 f. (£l3 sterling), and
he went home rejoicing to his wife at the
'Wonderful beauty and cheapness of some pur
chases he had made at Melun. Madame de
Piers groaned in her spirit, but congratulated
herself in silence on her having at least made
room for the new acquisition; when, lo she
raised her eyes, and beheld her friend of the
morning
i pushing along the identical wheel
barrow n which he had carried off hie load,
the contents being the precise articles she had
sold for £9, and which M. de Flers had re
purchased a few hours later for .f 13!"

The crwer here ch linealed has unhappily
crumbled away, though not before it had
been photographed and rt produced, with
sevcral other pieces, in plaster. The electro•
type process can now give us fac similes of

have little difficulty in procuring duplicatei,if
so disposed. Perhaps Messrs. Tiffany & Co.
would do the public taste that service.

—Vinnie Ream has been hard at work on
the model of her statue of Lincoln, and it has
now approached a stage when its merits can
be somewhat fairly judged. Within a few
days it has been examined by some of the
iutimate friends and associates of Mr. Lincoln
during his life, among them Judge Davis,
executor of Mr. Lincoln; Marshal Lamon; his
law partner, and Col. Dickey, Assistant
Attorney General. They pronounce it a suc
cess, not only as an excellent likeness, but as
representing that thoughtful, benignant mood
of the subject best worth perpetuating in
marble. Of its merits as a work of art
Kellogg and other artists speak with appro
bation.
—The London Athenceum has the follow
ing letter from Naples :
'The Pungolo reports that the frescoes in
the church of San Severino, by the Zingaro,
have been retouched and greatly damaged. A
commission otartists, consisting of Malda
relli, Mancinelli, Guerra, Morelli, and Del
Bono, having been appointed to inquire into
the case, proceeded on December 28 to in
spect the paintings, which are almost unique.
According to the Pungolo, the surprise and
regret of the members were general, and ex
pressed in no doubtful terms. The'restorer,'
it appears, had been sent for from Messina,
and on being interrogated as to what method
he employed, replied that it was the same
which was used by the best restorers, in
causto a cera. The commission,after
noting the irreparable damage done to those
celebrated paintings, observed that, besides
replacing pieces which were wanting, the re
storer has covered the wall with a fatty mix
ture which, besides blackening, had com
pletely altered the tone of the frescoes. The
newly inserted parts can be removed, but
not so the fatty mixture, which has been ab
sorbed by the plaster.
"In the words of Morelli, as quoted by the
Pungolo, 'five centuries have transmitted to
us the paintings , of the Zingaro, somewhat
impaired by age, but still they were by the
great artist. You in ten days have destroyed
them. We have now the pictures of the re
storer, as we might have had those of any
other artist who had retouched them, but the
pietures of the Zingaro, of the beet Neapolitan
painter, no longer exist. We had them—we
were proud of them—you have destroyed
them.' It is only fair to say that, as has
always been the case with this 'irritable ge
nus,' a considerable amount of discord exists
between our Neapolitan artists, who may be
classed under the names of Old and Young
Italy, still the members of the commission
hold the highestOacas in their profession."
A CURIOUS RELIC
The Old Bethlehem MIL
& The Bethlehem, Pa., Times contains the
fblllowing extremely interesting account of
the old Bethlehem Mill destroyed on the 27th
inst.:
The Moravians who settled in the Forks of
Delaware in 1741 had the harvests of that and
the following year ground for bread, at Na
thaniel Irish's Mill, on Saucon creek, near its
confluenrie ithi\the Lehigll4,(now the site of
\
Shimers./111p. Mr. Irish was 'a man of some
note oulhd bo ens, an agent for Williams
Allen A' sq., men, ant of Phil(Cdelphia, in the
liale_c a. ds, and - a Justice of the Peace of
the co i t 5. of Bucks.

vistfis 1, : etbkttem, in 1743; and on the 25th
I cf .lEl'' .: of that year, a site for the struc
ture-w:: • •lected. In April the work was
ahead Ader roof ; on the 24th of June the
1-machi I • was put in running order, and on
-th : te of June the first grist was ground.
The wheaten loaf eaten next day by the
brotherhood was altogether of their make.
This achievement was a matter of congratu
lation to the infant settlement, as well as to
the neighborhood; which in those days of
scattered farms, embraced a wider area than
V'P at present. For,
we are told in Feb
ruary of 1747, there came neighbors
from beyond the Blue Mountain (adventurous
German fanners who had hewed them farms
in tiie;*er;yil - icart'of the Indian country, on
the borders of the Aquarischiccola and the
Pocopoco), to have the fruit of their toil
converted into bread at the Moravian Mill.
One. Adam Schaus, else unknown to fame,
was the first miller. He ran but one pair of
stones: but they ground well, and won Adam
a goodly reputation; and many came from
the Vast and from the West, and most came
from the "North Countrle," from the land of
pines, and swamps, and scrub-oaks, to have
their grain made in flour; and in 1744 there
was taken from these barbarians, as the
Greeks would say, toll as follows :
Of wheat, 222 bushels; of rye 170 bushels:
of Indian corn, 27 bushl f buckwheat, 12
tll-1?
bushels; of barley, 2 bshe's.

Mr. Henry Antes, of red ric (now Mont
gomery county), descen ants of whom are
still residing in and about town,was the
millwright employed by the Moravians in the
construction of the mill of 1743. ,It was built
of stone,and well-built,too,as was the fashion
of those days; yet its walls gave way under
the pressure of the swollen Manocasy, in the
freshet of March-'BO, 1747; and although re
paired, in the course of a few years, it was
thought advisablei to supersede it by' a new
and large building.
Preparations for,tlv,erection of the second
Moravian Mill were - bade in 1751. The ma
sons began with thee foundation-wall on the
14th of June, selecting the best of the lime -
stone that were quarried on Nisky Hill, for
this part of tbe work,. As harvest was at the
door, and the entire fines: of the settlement
would be needed during its continuanee,every
nerve was strained to make headway in the
important undertaking just initiated. By the
end of August the building was under roof,
the works in ruoninrorder, and on the 2d-of
September, 1751, the first grist was ground
by tbe mill, that ground its last on the 27th
of January, 1869.
The structure was 90x31 feet, and contained
additiort W. one run of donee for, grinding
ain',oliiit: granary, a falling mill, a clothiers'
stidedaid dye S-house. all under one roof. The ,
litneetcienewas quarried on'thaNisky quarries,.
IMMO lathe sawed at the Oriadenthal' (now
sent of (oenty Almshouse,saw mill. Darhain:
Furnace) supplied the iron Vork.:•of the ma
chinery.; The water wbeel'and:. mill donee
were new. Above the former was the mill
room. In May, 1753, a sebond run of stones ,
was added. The ground 100; was laid, in
tiles, the roof covered with the same material;
and the building furnished with a sun dial and
elevator.
Mr. John Jungmann, a well-known mis
sionary among the Indians, who died in
Bethlehem on the 17th 'of July, 1868, tells us
in his autobiography he was the first miller
in the mill bf 1751.
- Dninig the. French and — lndian war, in
1755, and again in 1758, when the part of
Bethlehem long and still known as Water
street. and the workshops and institutes on
Main street were palisaded and put into a
state of defence from fear of surprises by hos
tile Indians, the old mill was the citidal
within the city, crowded with panic-stricken
refugees from the unprotected frontiers.
When, in 1769, the Moravims in N irth
America abolished the quasi communistic
system of which Bethlehem ha. 4 been the
central point since 1741, the mill was worked
fOr the benefit of the settlement solely, being
one of a number of industrial pursuits re
tained as sources of revenue.
In the sad loss of •property occasironed by
the disastrous conflagration of last night, is
involved the destruction of another of.the few
remaining monuments of early Moravian
domination in the forks of Delaware. The
old mill carried us back further into the past
than perhaps any other remaining old time
landmark here, excepting the "stone row" on
Church street. It weathered the storms of
one hundred and eight years, and out-lived
the Changes that have since then come over
the country in which and the asso
ciation by which it was erected in
1751. Pennsylvania was then a loyal
province of the British' crown, and the
Moravians in North America a society, in an
extraordinary sense of.the word, organized to
a man for missionary activity. Its erection
supplied the urgent want of the settlement,
and proved a benefaction to the country
around. It was always a busy place, the old
mill down by the creek, with its 'face to the
sunny South, and yet cool in the shadow of
willows. It was always busy within with
its whirring stones, and dripping wheel, and
trembling hopper, that
.. youred out untold '
wealth of golden grain, to be transformed
into the staff of life; and I can even now see
how busy the scene without already in the
times of Adam Schuss, the first of a long line
of "dusty millers," where, on "mill days,"
a cavalcade of settlers from the out
skirts of Pennsylvania civilization would
dismount, and, tying their jaded
beasts with rope halters, each shouldered his
grist, and, as be crossed the threshold within
the precincts of the famous Moravian Mill,
did homage to the mysterious dial that stood
sentinel above; and thus each succeeding
generation repeated the busy scene without,
with only a change of masks. But the life
within the mill was the same; and this
ceased when its restless hour glass, from
which the golden grain of over a hundred
yeartihad poured in one continuous stream,
was at last run out.
And because the life of the mill was a
long life of good to the familyr of man,
hence these chronicles and hence this pious
requiem.
Victor El ugo's New lgovel-""The Laugh
ing
TRH INDISCRETIONS OF A PROOF-READER.
The Chicago Tribune translates from a
French journal the following account of I
Victor Hugo's new novel, "The Laughing
Man"
"L' Homme qui rig,`The Laughing Man,'
Victor Hugo's new novel, will be the great
literary event of this month. The work will
not be issued in Paris until the 20th or 25th
of January; but certain circumstan:tes enable
me to occupy myself with it already to-day,
and even to communicate some extracts from
it to my readers.
"These circumstances form a whole his
tory. lam guilty, very guilty. But I hope
to obtain my pardon by a Prank confession of
my fault.
"A few weeks since I happened to be at
the printing (ace of Messrs. ..Poupart its
Davyl, where I had to correct the last proof
sheets of a novel. When I was about finish
in • s. y task,l saw before me a small package
. of-sheets, which I commenced t. iiog
over without any special interest
two or three phrases on which in y eyes •
riveted my attention in a very sit /Mar ma,
ner. lat once recognized the mkstic sty.
of the great master. > e
"A simple mortal woula have beroSia . so dis
creet as to restore the smallliNergre - of proof
sheets to its former place. A. literary man,
however, could not be expected to possess
such a delicacy of feeling on this occasion.
My first idea, I am ashamed to confess, was
to profit by the lucky accident which had
caused the first pages of L'HommCqui rif
to fall into my hands, and what is still worse,
I persisted in this first idea. I said to myself
with fierce joy: 'Here is an excellent present
which I shall make haste to carry to some
journal.'
•"I thought at first I would put the small
package of proof-sheets into ,pay pockets.
That would have been simple Nail not very
troublesome. But then I felt that h would
have been too simple and too little trouble
some. On the other hand it was impossible
for me to copy any extracts from it: persons
might enter at any moment the room where
I was and catch me, pen in hand.
"I was at a loss what to do, when I re
ineMitred-that, at the college, I was form
erly thought to possess an excellent memory.
And then I commenced studying the Orst
three pages, of L'Homme qui rit; reading,
reading and repeating my lesson like a lad
cultivating the garden of Greek roots. A few
minutes afterward I knew the three pages of
it by heart. I could leave the proof-sheetis
there, and took a pink i e of the book along with
me in my head.
"L'Homme qui rit has two introductory
chapters : Ursua and CompraehicoB. They
were the two chapters which I was fortunate
enough to see.
"And now here are my three pages. They
open the work. I promise you I shall recite
my lesson without many blunders.
* , *
" `Ursus and Homo were bound together
by ties of the closest . friendship. Ursus was
a man. Homo was a wolf. 'Their characters
were decidedly harmonious. The man it was
who had baptized the wolf. As regards his
own name, he,had probably chosen it himself;
being well pleased with his name Ursus, he
thought he would like the name H )rao for
the beast. The connectio&of this man and
beast was very useful to tlie4airs.'
* * *
"Here is a gap in my memory. lam un—
able to call to mind the next two or three
phrases. Then follows :
" `To witness the taming of animals is
something which pleases many persons. It
affords us extraordinary satisfaction to 81313 all
the varieties of tamed animals pass by. This
is the reason why so many men like to see
royal corteges.'
'(Another gap,but the following is correct:)
' " 'Maus lived in a rolling cabin, which
Homo, sufficiently civilized, drew by. day
and y guarded by night: On diftioultroadsainl
steep ascents, whenever there W 109600 upy
furrows and too much mud, the matt put , he
line round his neck and froternaliy'drew side ;•
by side with the wolf. They hadlgroWn'Old
together., They encoMpid now in a stabble
field; now in a Clearing, caw on across Lad,
at the , entrance of• villages, at the gate of'
towns; 'in. public hallkowthe - edge of Pafkg2
in the vestibules of churches. When the odd
vehicle stopped at a village fair, when all old
women flocked to gaze at it, when curious
spectators surrounded it,•Ursus spoke and
Homo approved. Homo, holding a wooden
basin in his mouth, politely solicited money
from the spectators. They made a living.
The wolf was smart, and so was the mac.
The wolf had learned some wolilshtricks,
which added to their receipts.'
" 'Above all, you should not degenerate
into a man,' said his friend. •
" 'The wolf never bit, the man sometimes
did.'
* • * * *
"This is all I was able to remember. But
if I could not commit any more to memory, I
glanced also over the second chapter. It ap
pears the Comprachicos,of whom this chapter
treats, were in the sevBnteenth century a sort
of nomad society which dealt in children.
Comprachicos is a Spanish word and signifies
`busy little ones.'
"For the rest, the author has defined the
Comprachicos in a few of those lines such as
be alone is able to write. I remember the
folio wing;
"'The Comprachicos dealt in children.
" 'They bought and sold them.
" 'They did not steal them. Stealing
children is another kind of business.
, " 'And what did they make of these
children?
" 'Monsters.
" Wow so, monsters?
"'To Make people laugh.'
"And the author then expatiates upon this
singular business of educating children for
the profession of clowns. Poor devils sold
their sons and daughters, whom' the Compra
chicos dressed as monkeys and sold to
wealthy men, as now certain persons sell
small Havanese dogs to the girls of the Boule
vards.
"According to my opinion, which is based
upon the pages which I have read, CHomme
qui rig is superior to anything written by
- Victor Ilugo in the peat ten years. There
reigns in these papers a superhuman spirit.
"I know that the great poet does not like
indiscretions, But I hope he 111 forgive me
when he sees that I might have been still
more indiscreet:"

FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS.
q his great enterprise is approaching completion with a
rapidity that asttniebee the world. Over Aileen (idqh
hnt,dred mite:shave been built by two (2) powerful coin
ps)airs ; the Union Pacific Railroad, beginning at Una Oia,
building west, and the Central Pacific Railroad, begin
Meg at Sacramento, and building east, until the two
roads shall meet. Less than two hundred and fifty miles
remain to be built. The greater. part of the interval is
now graded, and it is reasonably expected that the
throng!) connection between Ban Francisco and New York
will be bompleted by July 1.
As the amount of Government aid given to each is de
perdent upon the length of road each shall build, both
companies aro prompted, to great efforts to secure the
construction and control of what, when completed, will
be ore and the only Oand !lat . /road Line connecting the
Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
One Hundred and Ten Million Dollars (8110,090.000) in
money have already. been expended by the two pewerful
companies engaged in this great enterprise, and they will
speedily complete portion yet to be built. When the
United States Government found it necessary to secure
the construction of the Pacific Railroad. to develop and
protect Ste own intereetit gave the companies authorized
to build it ouch ample aid as should render its speedy
completion beyond a doubt. The Government aid may
be briefly summed up es followe:
Firet—The right of way and all neceesary timber and
stone from public domain. •
Second—lt makes a donation of 12, M) acres of lend to
the mile, which, when the road ie compteted,will amount
to t ,entp•threo Million (28,000,000) acres, and all of it
within twenty (20) miles of the railroad.
114 rd—It loanir the companies fifty million dollars
($40.000.000). for which it takes a second lien.
The Government has already loaned the Union Pacific
Railroad twenty-four million and fifty.eight thousand
dollars 01241,06800). and to the Central Pacific Rairoad
seventeennmillion six hundred and -forty.eight thousand
dollars ($17,648000), amounting in all to forty-one million
seeen hundised and alx thousand dollars 0841.700,000)-
The Cotoppinieagre perinitted to lune their own Firet
Morigage fiends tb the samo.amount na they receive from
. .
the United btatea. and' no more. The companies have
eold to permanent investors about ($03.000.000) forty mil
lion dollars of their First Mortgage Bonds. The com.
pante, have already paid in (including net earnings not
divided, pante from State of California. andeacramento
city and Ban Francisco), upwardsnr(trib,ooo,ooo) twenty.
fivemitlion dollars of capital stock.
WHAT 18 THERE YET TO BE DONE?
In considering this question it moat be remembered that
all the remaining iron to finish the road L 3 contracted tar.
and the largt at portion paid for and now delivered on the
line of the Union Pacific Railroad and the Central Pacific
Railroad, and that the grading is almost finished.
WHAT RESOURCES HAVE TUE COMPANIES TO
FLNDEDA THE ROAD t
Fint—They will receive from the Government as the
road progreccea about $9,000,000 additional
Becood—They can lame their own Firat Mortgage
Bonds for about $9.001000 additional
Third—The companies now hold 4ruest all the land
they have up L 9 this time received frolerthe'Government;
upon the comiletion of the road they , will have received
in all aII.UVI,tI/0 acres. which at el 60 per acre would be
worth 0:31,6.0000.
In addition to the above the net earnings of the roads
snd additional capital. if necessary. could be called in to
Web the road.

A Great Hecht! Centre.
Nothing can be more apparent in regard to the
progress and development of Philadelphia than
that we stand very much in need of some centre,
apart from the whirl and confusion of trade,
wherc'may be aggregated those great institutions
.:indispensable to the enjoyment of social life in
such a metropolitan city; not a focus around
which shops and jobbing and commission houses
and broilers' offices may congregate, but one
where science, art, literature, education and cul
ture may throng together, bringing their rich
stores of learning and taste and skill. Some
thing of the nucleus for such a centre
has been established in Broad street.
There is the grand hall of the Horti
cultural Society, the finest in the Republic de
voted to horticultural aims, and there that excel
- lent society proposes to gather a splendid library
and horticultural collection. There is the Acad
emy of the Natural Sciences, the best museum in
America, with its unrivalled collections and su
perb scientific library. There is the Academy of
Music, the home of music and the opera, the head
quarters of elegance and fashion. There is the
renowned Union League, now admitted to be the
bean ideal of an American social and political
club; There is the School of Design for Women,
with Its admirable collection of imported caste.
There is the Natatorium, with its unequalled sys
tem of physical training.
There, too, will be found the grandest prepa
rations for the future in the superb churches of
marble and serpentine, and granite and brown
--stone that are either_linished_ or in progress In
almost every block, and in the stupendous Ma
sonic Temple that is beginnin to rise from its
foundations. It is noticed by all
that trade seems
to have nothing whatever to do with the im
provement. of Broad street. Private enterprise
has been long engaged in rearing elegant man
eions in many parts of this magnificent highway,
and the Nlcolson pavement has made It a great
resort. It is now proposed to extend this ad
mirable street flooring through the whole length
of the avenue.
What we now need is some grand work that
shall stand pre-eminent as the main feature in
the progress of the city, like the proposed mu
seum upon Penn Square. All other improve
ments thus far made In the shape of buildings ap
peal only to particular classes of the community.
In this projected museum we should have
s splendid reaort, open alike to all, free
of, charge, the richest and the poorest, the
educated and the Ignorant, the cultivated
and the unrefined, strangers and resi
dente. .Bueh an institution would be of immense
waytwtage to our university and collegiate in
stitutions, and would have the effect of attract
ing students from far and near—a thing of no
mean importance In view of the rest efforts
Made by other cities to render their colleges at
tractive and popular. Aside from is these col
lective galleries and libraries (mid attract
,scholars andjnen of science from ll quarters,but
more especially from all section of our own
country.
At the present time the Ac dewy of Fine
-.Arts is our only public gallery o the decorative
• arts,and to this an admission fee Is charged. As
we understand the proposition this institution
would put into the proposed m seem all its pro
perty and available means toward building a
splendid art gallery, free to the public,
ond stocking it, not with pictures for sale,
- but with great works of sculpture or
painting_, the permanent attractions of the
. place. There can be no doubt that, in any
such event. citizens of wealth and liberal spirit
Would freely give paintings and sculpture to the
galleries, that they now keep for their own col
lections,. In case of the erection of the proposed
.museum, funds would undoubtedly be raised to
make large purchases both abroad and at home—
on inducement of no mean value to our resident
artists. We specify this case merely to illustrate
the practical operation of the whole plan, for
'what is true of the one institution applies to all
alike.
Thosewhe have hitherto opposed the disposal
of the above squares in this.manner seem to have
been under the impression that it could be used
.for public ,builtlintps for the city. Whatever WM
.
Lion Mere Might have been on that point is now
set at rest by the ordinance establishing a coin
mission to erect public buildings on Independence
Swiere, Where there is ample space for that pur
pose. But even if apy more space were
nee,dett it:certainly cannot be supposed advisable
to place one 'portion of the municipal buildings
'on Independence Square, and'another portion a
mile distant;'on•Penn Squares. Ms manifest that
if enough:space cannot be found on the Walnut
street front.• of Independence Square; the muni
cipal buildings. must have wings stretched along
Fifth and Sixth streets to Chestnut, leaving an
open , space in the centre, with Independence
Ball therein. As there can be no other use for
Penn Squares, opposition to the museum project
risme longer to be anticipated.—North Anteracan,

The Old Literature of India.
It has already been announcedtiat the go
vernment of India has rekolved to" allot annul
ally the sum of £2,400 to the purpose of pur
chasing and making known Important Ban
suit manuscripts, to be , preserve& hereafter
from loss In one of the public • libraries of
India, or in the home library of the India
Office.
The circumstances connected with this 114
beral resolution (says the London Athol
mourn) deserve ,especial' .mention. The
learned Rl3dbA Krishna, Chief Pandit to the
late Lahore Dunbar, hhd presented the San 4
scrit Text . Society with a catalogue of hie
splendid library of Sanscrit manuscripts, and
was in consequence requested by this
society to supply it, if possible, with
other similar catalogues of the , menu.
script libraries of learned natives, so ,
that their existence and contents mint be
made known to the world at large. The
learned Pandit not only readily promised to
accede to the request of the society, but im
proved the opportunity by petitioning the
Governor-Genend to use his power and, influ
ence to the same end. Sir John Lawrence
submitted the letter of Pandit Radhil Krishna
to Mr. Whitley Stokes, the Secretary to the
Legislative Council of India, and it was this
accomplished scholar—celebrated not only as
a Celtic philologist and editor of several
standard works on Rindoo law, but as fam-,
iliar also with many of the vernaculars of
India—who expanded the wish of the Lahore
Pandit into an elaborate scheme, from which
will date a new era of Sanscrit research in
India.
According to this scheme, now become law
by the resolution of the government of Ludia,
competent gentlemen will be sent on tours in
India to explore the existence of old Sanscrit•
manuscripts relating especially to the Vedas,
the Hinds law, Sanscrit grammar, lexicog-:
raphy, and philosophy, to purchase them, or,
if this be not possible, to have faithful copies
taken of them, and to send originals or copies
to the library to be designatedty government
for their ultimate preservation. Of such
manuscripts complete lists will be compiled,.
and transmitted not only to the government
of India, but also to the India Office, and to
scholars in Europe, so as to elicit from them
suggestions to be acted upon in the progress
of this research.
An annual grant of £3OO to the Asiatic So
ciety of Bengal, in addition to that of £6OO
annually already received from government
by that learned body, will be moreover de
voted to the publication of these Sanscrit
works, and thus to extending the usefulness
of the scheme beyond the bounds of the for
tunate libraries which will come into posses
sion of these literary treasures. The gentle
men in India recommended by Mr. Stokes in
his regard for the working of his plan, are the
celebrated Sanscritist Baboo Rajendra LIB
Mittra in Bengal, Mr. Burnell in Madras, a
highly accomplished and distinguished mem
ber of the Madras civil service, and Dr.
fer, professor of Sanscrit in the Elphinstone
College of Bombay. This sgheme Mr.
Stokes himself looks upon as the commence -
ment of a great and important task. But it
is one of those commencements which, when'
grasped by minds like Mr. Stokes's, are sure
of success; and we are confident that it will
prove to be one of those wise measures, too,
which will go far to win the hearts of all en
lighted Bindoos and strengthen their good
feelings towards those who rule over their
destinies.
