"Miss Martineau's preface to the second
adition of her "Biographical Sketches" spealth
of the moral aspects of a biographer's under
taking. "Between confusion of thought on
the one hand," she remarks, "and unchastened
feelings on the other, it is no wonder if a large
proportion of readers fail to apprehend the
purpose , of biographicalportraiture alto
gether." Prom , the need of consolation, for
charity's sake, or good taste, or to encourage
goodness by -a perfect, image, or blinded
by. Intellectual eminence to moral faults,
Abe adds t biographers say nothing
hut good of the dead, and she continues : "As
1 do not recognize any of these points of view,
I have worked from a ditferent one. To me it
appeals that persons of social prominence
enough to be subjects of published biography
have given themselTes to society for better for
Worse, not their deeds only, but - themselves.,'.'
She t regards the reception her book has met
with as an evidence that society deliberately
4 1protiounces for an ethicer standard of char
acter in the first place, and in the next, for
fidelity to thatistandard."
Nor the following literary titbits we ac
knowledge our debt to the clever correspond
ent of the Cincinnati Gazette :
Dr, Holland is in Paris with his family. He
will travel in Germany during the suiumer,
and remain there for the winter and write a
book, and in the spring return home.
I heard Ruskin lecture the other evening on
"Myths of Storm in Greek Legends." He is
as bad -a public speaker as the worst public
speaker in England, who may be Dean Stan
ley,'or any other of the endowed preachers,
who appear to be endured with everything ex
cept speaking sense. John Ruskin looks thin
and haggard and unresttnl. Re used to be
seen frequently at Spurgeon's Tabernacle
(toward which he gave.ooo), but goes no
more. Once he said : "Spurgeon, where do
you think I would go if I should die now
"To hell and be damned."
"'Well, that's frank. I've asked several
preachers that question, and they evaded it."
Then the great preacher went on earnestly
io tell the great author that he once thought
there were no such writings as 'his, but since
he learned of their author's attitude towards
religion their chancel was gque.
Ruskin's former wife is now the wife of
the English artist, whose works of
oat he does not admire as he does Turner's.
The other day he startled those whO are in
debted to him for their appreciation of that
astounding manipulator of the brush, by sell
ing at - auction : *entire stoek 'of Ytiriter
studies. Bo there was a long . row of carriages
at Christie & Mauson's auction rooms, and the
powdered footmen lined the pave while a great
trushing . of Silks and fingering of catalbgues
went on 111 the room aboye. But for being
expected to admire I should have calla' the
whole lot daubs.
As for the lecture, which I had really
gotten, and really would forget still, but for
the few bungling notes 1 toolc on the spot,
it was a weird jumble. There were some
superb sentences, and some fine thoughts. We
were toldthe spiritual significance of theearth,
air, water and lire, the meaning of the myths
and the gods, and &111 that. We heard of the
gentleness of Eros, "lord of the beneficent

although it is not to be presumed that his pen
is idle, nobody seems to know what he is

asses to be found, the Duke of Sutherland,
Col. Truesdale, Col. Marshall (andhimself)were
obliged to trudge on foot."
The Rev. George Cl-iltilkiii w(.9 asked the

Some of the English magazines are taking

TUE USE AND AnUnE or FOOT-NOTEN.
Few things (appositely remarks the Saturday
Review) among the many Mysteries of author
ship are more difficult to understand than the
principle ea which a writer manages his fOot
notesof he resorts to them freely and co
piously, or the ininciple on Which he omits
them, if his use is sparing and rigidly limited.
Caprice seems to rule at the bottom of the
page in a sovereign manlier. One author re
gards a third or a fourth of - each page as lawful
space in which the rubbish of his note
books may be lit:Monthly shot, to,, the
edification of his readers, and to the
glory of his own erudition. Another care
fully removes every trace of the, seaffelding,
enginery, bricks, mortar and the rest, without
which he could not have constructed his great
work, and yet which would only obscure its
lines, proportions and general impression, if
they or any bit of them were left in the way
after the work is finished. A third sort of
writer differs from both of these; for, while he
does not .rigorously clear away all the relics
and debris of his labors, nor; on the other
hand,leave them all piled up in gigantic heaps,
he darts down at his reader .upon sudden and
- groundless pretext with a' little shower of
references, characterizations, and emphatic
side-strokes, which take ono violently by sur
prise and leaVe us wondering why we should
have, deserved this swift and fierce descent,
and why, if it be fitting hero, it should be omit
ted in the next page or the next after that, or
even through a Whole \peaceful chapter that
follows undisturbed by a single reference
characterization, or anything else of the kind.
Of course it is uititejtjain,aw,thri t oyfelyhith
I.llcii.e, can be a general rule about
long sentences and short sentences,
the number of sentences that
ought to make a paragraph, and the like. The
suNect, and the particular writer's connection
and treatment of it, are both of them con
siderations that have a great deal to do with'
the fittingness and dimensions of the foot
note. .Ina - novel, for example, a foot-note - is
' usually a superfluity, and in this class of books
we usually find it in the particularly objec
tionable statement at the r _bottoat of therpage
that "This is a fact," or "The writer can
vouch for the truth of the remark 'which is
put into So-and-so's mouth," as if it made
any di tferenwhetli . the remar-k--4)
vouched for or not in the proper person of the
author. For one thing, the truth of a remark
which is given to a character in a novel is less
to the point than its dramatic propriety; and
for another thing, as a rule, there is no more
reaSon why we should take the word of the
novelist for the soundness of a remark than
the. -word of the puppet whom the novelist
has created. Surely it comes to much the
same thing in point of credibility. Let it be
said, however, that there is one great living
romance-writer whom the foot-note, if he
had only coudescended,to it, would have saved
from a good runny riblences upon the proprie
ties of his text.. In one of Victor Hugo's
sublime descriptions, it would he a profound
comfort if the text were not broken by strange
references to a wind which blew for fifteen
hours and thirty-five minutes on the 18th of
January, 1867, or maybe to an extraordinary
fish flaunt in July, 1840, in the waters of the
Susquehanna by Jefferson B. Scribbs of Wil
mington, Delaware. If we must be told of
the particular fish and the particular storm,
then, in the name alike of art and mental com
fort, let them be relegated to
the fool! of the page, or, still
better, the end of the chapter, where we
may skip all these needless bits of useful in
formation in a lump. But as art is concerned
with wholes, we could well dispense with this
profusion of peculiarities, whether in teAt or
tbot-note; and we may admit generally that in
fiction one suffers fewer things of the foot,note
than anywhere else. It is in history,.and,es
pecially iri philosophical history, that the foot
note can be most rampant. Everybody knows
the look of one of Mr. Buckle's pages;
usually rather more than one-half is
covered with a perfectly tropical plantation of
references to all manner of books, with de
cisive remarks thrown in off-hand upon men
and things in general. To take the History of
Civilization down into the country is as good
as having a library with you. Every other
sentence is a peg on which to hang a foot-note
a couple of inches long. If you have digested
the foot-note, you find that you have by that
time lost the thread of the text. Resuming
this painfully, you read on five or six lines
More, and are once more jolted' off
the track into the rut of another
foot-note. Perhaps the 'great Gibbon set
the most effective example of this kind of
practice; only it is - just to say that his notes
are scarcely ever overloaded, that they usually
are directed by some intelligible purpose„of
reference, and that, when they are not this,
they are repositories of- something which,
might well have' been left out altogether, but
still which is better in the obscurity of a foot
note than thrust into the broad and open day
of the text. This is a very different thiiig,
however, from a practice that is growing up,
among writers otherwise of merit,. of turning.
the foot-noteWO a special region where they
may skip and frisk, denounce and - extol, epi
grammatize and antithesize, with a summari
ness and an airy decision most refreshing to
behold. They pay a certain respect to the.,
dignity of the text, and then reward them
selves for so much self-restraint by wonderful
gamhadoes at the bottom of the page. Here
they.raise or demolish an idol iii the twinkling
of aisentence; flash a bit or Greek or Latin or
old French in the reader's eyes, merely d pro
pos de bottes; charatterize a Philosophy as
briskly and lightly.as if they were turning a
couplet; and sumpp in a phrase any system of
which they may 'have chanced to bethink
themselves. •

I am, lioWever, ,rather, inclined to fancy that

his greater companion', believing,,perhaps, that
the higher mind had better be a law to itself.

is so great, a blot in "Felix

Brontethat he would rather be the author of
Miss Austin's stories than the whole of the
Waverlefnovels. I 'certainly do' not agree
with him inthatopinion; but it is strange that
no one who held it should nothave endeavored
to prevent On , 'anthoress greater' than Miss
Austin, and far nil:ire directly under his influ
ence than Charlotte Brente, from sinking, in
one or two instances, into faults which neither
Miss Austin nor Miss Brout4 would Uver have
connnitted. Many things are strange about
this literary and domestic companionship;
this comparatively trifling fact seems to be not
the least strange.—Golon..

IN onnisn to:ridicule VieterrElugo's pre.sent
anti,BonapartiSt views, the Princess MAWIde
engaged, the other day; a distinguished actress
of the-Theatre Franots to recite the famous
poem of Victor Hugo, "The:Ashes of Napo
leon," at a 'soiree. iu .her parlOr, at which the
*bole Imperial 'family and a great many other
distinguished, persons Would be, present.
The affair, however, did not ., pass off very
pleasantly. The . poen,i in question con
tains a great many fierce denunciations
of. Great Britain, and-Lord. Lyons,
the British Ambassador, happened to stand
before the actress as she was reciting Victor
liugo7's impassioned lines. It may be imagined
that the whole company was greatly embar
rassed in consequence—so Much so, indeed,
that no one ventured to applaud even the
most flattering allusions to - Napoleon. Finally
Napoleon 111, himself gave the signal for ap
plause, but only a few courtiers clapped their
ban& On the following day another little
episode,which seemed to vex the ,Em
peror itnd Empress greatly, occurred'
at

formed for the first time: The passage which
was most furiously applauded was 'the follow
ing: "There are men who steal in all posi
tions." Owing to the dishonest transactions
by which so many leading Bonapartists are be
lieved to have amassed fortunes, this passa"e
was encored again and again, and elicited the
most deafening cheers, - until' finally both the -

A Boston paper says: At the re b ind:lr meet
ing of the Executive Committee of the Peace
Festival Association, held at the St. .Tanies
.
offered the following vote, which was passed
unanimously:
Voted, That, recognizing the distinguished
position of Ole Bull as one of the first expo
nents of the divine art of music in any land,
and also the noble philanthropy of his charac
ter, we earnestly and cordially invite him to
join the mammoth orchestra on the opening
occasion of the Peace Jubilee, as first leading
Mr. P. S. Gilmore was (most appropriately)
chosen to wait upon Mr. Ole Bull, and to pre
sent a copy of the vote. The recipient, who
had just closed a brilliant concert performance
at the Music Hall, fully realizing the fitness
and grandeur-of the Peace Festival, received
theproposition and his brother artist with en
thusiastic interest, and responded in person by
joining the Executive Committee at once. The
brief remarks which fell from his lips on this
occasion were characterized by the most ex
quisite simplicity, , and yet, like himself, wore
full of grand and beautiful thoughts.
He felt flattered and highly gratified by the
distinction conveyed in the invitation. The
purpose of this grand enterprise was not new
to hum he had watched its development from
the inceptiOn. It was fitting that music, the
mediator between our spiritual and material
life, that sacred agent, like, all art, far mightier
than the artist—thef t angel of prayer—it was
fitting that peace in the land should be cele
brated by and through this divine agent.
After all the sacrifice of blood and treasure,
broken bonds of nationality,and broken hearts,
how-eminently proper it seemed to. diSpel all
of these jarring elements by a noble and puri
fying:influence, and, on this, unexampled and
splendid scale, to rejoice in peace once more.
If there was a bridge between us and all that
we looked forward to so hopefully in the future
life—between humanity' and Heaven—that
bridge was music.

CHEVIOTS, for spring and summer wear, -
BANNOCRBURNS, for autumn and whiter,
have been copied from the best Scotch styles, and manu
factured from the imported wool, which ahem can give
the proper effect to them.
At first it was thought by the parties who contracted
for. the goods that they would sell better without the
distinctive mark of the Washington Mills; but it has
been found that in general appearance and durability
they are quite equal to their foreign prototypes ; there
fore the largest consumers have requested that the regu
lar Washington Mills ticket should be attached to every
piece; and in order that purchasers may. be protected
— IT - 6in the possibility of having inferior goods sold to them
in garments, under the name of the Washington Mills
Cheviots, the following named parties hereby advertise
to the trade and public generally, that they hare given
thapreference to these goods, and will have them con
stantly in stock, AND NO INFERIOR GRADES WILL
BE OFFERED AS SUBSTITUTES.

A Spiritualistie Charmer in nigh Life.
A case has just conic before the *Pretieli tri
bunals which in some•of its features-recalls the
cease cilibre of : Lyons versus Home, with this
important difference, that the plebean spiritttal7
ist is here represented by the noble and high
born Baron von Ouldenstitbbe, a descendant
of the families of Hapsburg and Hohenzollern;
and the infatuated old lady by the charming
young Princess Isabeau de Beativau-Oraon.
The Baron is far from owing his sole celebrity
ti his illustrions descent; his name is famous
among the believers in intercourse with the in
visible world as that of the author of, many
works on spirits, and in particular as the in
ventor of a new and patent mode:of eotruuUni-i
eating with these supernatural beings. His
carding all the medium's usual paraphernalia of
'indicators," “tables," "alphabets,'' &c.,
this gifted nobleman simply en
closes in a box a pencil and a
paper on which is written the. question he
wishes to have answered. This he deposits on
the tomb of the departed mortal whose spirit is
to be evoked; and in the course' of a few se
conds the answerappears legibly written under
the question. it is scarcely to be wondered at
that the possessor of such marvellous powers
should have obtained great influence over the
mind of a young lady ofa highly romantic tem
.wrament. Her family have appealed to the
judges to declare her insane and incapable Of
managing her affairs, but the Princess them&
appeared before the conitand pleaded her case
with so much vigor and ready-wit that her
mother's application'was rejected. The'cOtirt,
however, having regard to certain "preoecupa
lions chimeriques" on the part of the ' young
Princess, have plaCed her under the are..of a
"conseil judiciare."
How to Learn nigHuh.
In a volume printed by Senhor jose: de. Fon
seca. with the avoUrcd object of teaching . the
Portuguese to speak:English, the happy readei
will find matter that wouldpruvoke au anchorite
to laugh until the ricks ring. We hive 'never
met with anything more intensely ludicrous
than some extracts which are given iii CMCC A
Il'erk, and copied into Littera Living tAgt:; , The
WO is most pretentiohs. In the.- preface the
%liter scores without mercy his unfortunate
predecessors, who have attempted to do that
which he proposes to accomplish with fatiltleSs
precision. After doing some familiar proverbs
in rare style. the author prOeeeds to give some
specimens of dialogues for practical use. The
following is a sample:
'DIALOGUE TO RIDE A. HORSE.
*:lsere is a horse who have a bad looks. Give
mianothet,-I will-not that. He.Mit stall know
to march, he is pursy, he is_foundered. Don't
tt -- a:re ashamed - to pve me - jade7asliko He
is unshoed, he is with nails up; it wantft lead
to the farrier. lle o limp, he is disable."
- -"Let-us prick: -Go-us-more fast never-i was
seen a so much bad beast; be will not bring for
nand nor to put backs."
—Streck him the bridle, hold' him' the reins'
shortest. Pique strongly make to march him.'
"1 have pricked -him but I can't enough, to
make march bini2' .
"Go down, i shall march."-
"Take care that lie pot give you a loot
kie4's."
"Then he kick's for that i look. Look herei
i knew to tame him."
THE JAPANESE USE PAPER for a great
variety of purposes. A recent traveler stated
that he saw it made into materials so closely
resembling Russian and Morocco leather and
pig -skin, that it was very difficult to detect the
difference. With the aid of peculiar yarnbith
and skilful painting, paper. made excellent
trunks, tobacco-bags, cigar-cases, saddles, tele
scope-cases, the frames of microscopes; and he
even saw and used excellent water-proof coats;
made of simple paper, -Which did keep out the
rain,and were as supple as the best india-rubber.
The Japanese use neither silk nor cotton hand,
ketchiels, towels, nor dusters; paper,
in their
hands. serves as an excellent substitute. It is
sot t, thin, tot 01, of a pale-yellowish color, very -
plentiful, and very cheap. The inner wills of
many a Japanese apartment are formed of
paper, being nothing more than painted screens;
their windows are covered*with a fine, trans
lucent description of the same material. It
enters lamely-into the inannfacture of nearly
everything in a Japanese household; and he
saw what seemed to be balls of twine, but
which were nothing but • long shreds of tough
paper rolled up. If" a shopkeeper had a parcel
to tie up, he would take a strip•of paper, roll it
quickly between his hands and use it for the
purpose; and it was quite as strong as the
ordinary string tSed , at home. fu short,
without paper, all Japan would come . to a dead
lock; and, indeed, lest by the arbitrary exercise
- of his authority, a tyrannical husband should
stop his wife's paper, the sage Japanese mother
in-law invariably stipulates in the marriage
settlement, that the bride is to have allowed to:
her a certain quantity of :paper.- 7 -Bostori.
