"Let us carry our-imagination back," says
the Athencomi, .‘ttithtY'preciSoYinoment when
Mrs. Newby finally made up her mind that
she`Would write a'noyel hinging somehow or
abet, on,theins and outs of ordinary married
life, constructed ou her usual laudable system
, of, discarding sensationalism, and in , a tone
,which, if not very .

who - are sensitive on the Point that we are
guilty of no breach of confidence ; the only
confidence' we are honored with being our
own in our own , guessing powers, which, ex
cept as to verbal accuracy, is very great in
ideed. . „
"On this high authority, then, we give the
following epitomized report of what Mrs.
.NeWby said to herself and what herself replied
.to Mrs. Newby, shortly before these three vol
limes sprang into existence:—'Let me consider:
I want to invent some little domestic romance
in. which a man and his wife shall be the lead
ing figures, and an everyday home life the
'background. I suppose one of the two must
he very good and pure, and the other a
great knave? Which shall be .which?
The husband, I suppose, ought to be the
villain, and the wife—but • stop: people
will , say they have, read that sort of
thing once or twice already. Well, then;
.the husband kind and trustful and faithful,:
and the wife-0 ! but that, would involve the
naughty element inevitably, and I don't want
to haVe the least grain of that in _one of my
books. Then,
,both bad ? But, , goodness
graciouS! perhaps then the Athenaeum would
be comparing me with' Miss Braddon, and un
charitable runners-down of poor human na
ture like her! Ah, well , then, I must make
both of them good. Two good people; never
theless, will be thought rather tame heroes
now-a-days. Happy thought! One of them
shall seem—only just seem—for a little, very
little while, to be naughty, and then turn out
- to be'all right after all—there surely
can't be any real naughty element in that? So
be it: wife very good.; husband, by all appear
ances, a badman; a disloyal husband, treating
her ill ; having all sort' of mysterious secrets
from her, and so on. He shall have a poor
protiOle or a family he is ashamed of, behind
the scenes, or some horrid confidence that he
has sworn never to divulge even to his wife,
and Shall spend a lot of money without con
senting to explain whither it all goes to poor,
suspicious little wify; and then she shall find
dreadfully curious letters lying about,—ah,
yes! and a pretty photograph, and hear all
sorts of 'confirming hints and rinuors from
-kind-friendS s and at lasVgive up all faith in
husband, and end by making him as well as
herself puzzled and wretched. And then it
shall all come out; how the unknown corres
•pondent 'and 'husband are both as pure ati she
herself is, and' the couple shall have a sort of
second boneymbon, and live happier than
overall their lives after. That will do, I think,
for a fairly good, steady-going, old-fashioned,
anti-sensationalism tale; and filled in with a
little love-making, poverty, change of for
tune, &c., won't need much padding to till up
nine hundred ora, thousand pages.' "
ART ITEMS
- Among the year's acquisitions made by the
British Museum, as shown by the animal re
poit just published, are :
A grotesque terra-cotta figure of an old
'woman, a bronze medallion inlaid with niello,
bearing a head, probably of one of the Clan
dial' family; hydrim, amphorae, mural paint
ings, lamps and vases purchased from M. Cas
tellani; bronzes; a head, life-sized, winged,
bound with a diadem—a very beautiful ex
ample; an engraved mirror,l ft. 4l in. high; a
head in the form of a vase, with interesting
Etruscan inscriptions; and some Abyssinian
antiquities, including a line panel of Limoges
work, a necklace of filigree, said to have be
longed to King Theodore's queen, elaborately
engraved processional crosses, and a remark
able woven silk hanging, with sacred subjects.
01 carbon prints large numbers are now on
view, representing the art of Fra Bartolomeo,
Raphael, .M. Angelo, Da Vinci, Correggio,.
Titian, Holbein, Wolgernuth, D firer Balduug,
&heliolater, Cranach, G. Pencz, Ahlegrever ,
and others. In gathering these transcripts
Mr. Reed has done good service to students.
The wealth of skill and learning thus made
available will astonish those who are not
familiar with the great collections of drawingls,
and, being massed, the whole is more useful
than the parts..
We would suggest the acquisition of a set of
these carbon prints (or heliographic file-similes)
as a most useful, appropriate and cheap addi
tion to the stock of models at our Academy of
Fine Arts. Occasional impensimacquisiti
like these Would keep the students in a fine
state of interest' and good-humor, and such
copies from the old masters are the very' thing
to enlarge their conceptions and educate their
taste.i
—Rev. F. B. Hervey, in a lecture delivered
at Perklianistead, England, explains that the
Portland Vase (whose white figures are re
lieved upon a transhicent
. ground ;- there
is a similar specimen at Naples, in glass of the
richest blue) is a - specimen of cameo-cutting in
glass. As to the making of colored glass vessels,
he thought the fact that the Portland Vase was
found in a tomb of the third century does not
limit, its origin to that period. The truth is, that
since gem-engraving was in vogue, this trea
sure might have been made at any time after
power was obtained to coat glass upon 'glass;
which process the Phcenicians, if not.. the
Egyptians, long before the Romans took to
plundering, were able to perform. The Port
land Vase and itsfellotv-relics are magnificent
specimens of gem-engraving; dillbring only in
material from the ancient camel ' whenever

its neighbor exposed.
—.The . sarrie lecturer, in. criticising modern
'glaSs-stiirdrig, explained that much of,the fine
' "color" of. the great masters' pictures is due
to the Manner in which they produced nobly=
"broken tints so as to render the splendor of
the. hock more potent than accrues from em
ploying "flat," I. e, even and unbroken, tints.

the unused keys at her girdle, :moody, with

Here is one more of the many guesses, and
perhaps as futile as tifeSt. The crown of
Oernuin art, the work has always been held in
the highest reverence.
—Of Diirer's next-greatest work, again, the
Athencemn Says ;
" The Knight and Death" is another of
Diirer's famous mast erpieces. The best copy
belongs to Mr. G. Vaughan. The knight was
Franz von Sicksengen. One guesses readily ,
enough why the hideous Death, who rides be- ,
side the grave, stern champion here—knight
turning from middle life to age—holds up the
half-spent hour-glass so warningly, although
the soldier seems returning from viotory,with
oak leaves on his horse's head."
—Millais, engaged on a picture illustrative
of the history of Sir Walter Raleigh, has
sought in the neighborhood of the great man's
birthplace for accessories and a background to
his painting. This artist has also in hand the
subject of a cradle and its sleeping occupant
floating on the stream of a violent Scottish
flood. The little ark is borne unharmed. This
picture, as yet incomplete, is said to be full of
incident and expression.
—Thomas Hill, of Boston, is painting an
other view of the Yosemite Valley, which in
cludes the South Dome and Sentinel, with a
bit of the Merced river and a few Indians in
the foreground. His great painting is now on
exhibition at ()Menge. Mr. Hill's paintings
this season have shown a marked increase in
delicacy and finish.
—The critic of the Saturday Review (usually
Mr. Philip - Gilbert Hanierton) thus, rather dis
paragingly, alludes to our portrait-painter
Healy's likeness of Abbe LisA, mentioned in
one of the IitiLLETIN's letters from Rome, and
contributed to the Royal Academy Exhibition,
London :
"'Liszt' (771), by Mr. Healy; the musician
monk carrel a candle—syinbol perchance of
light in a dark world; the large brain—skull
rather limn face—seems burdened with thought
and intent m a mission. The picture has
more individual character than affect art
merit."
And thus to Bierstadt :
' 'The Sierra Nevada M omitains,California'
7309015TA:131 - Ra4lltTthe Amerman—di-61m
role and melodramatic landscape of Germany.
We do not stop to. inquire what right the
Americans have to Mr. Bierstadt. The fact
is, the painter is Gtirman by name, parentage
and education;' his art, Which could notpossi
bly have originated in America, was learnt
in Dusseldorf. These distinctive national
schools of landscape are now brought, almost
for the lirst time, within, the.. arena_ otour _
' English art."

Before, Advancing to the base of the Pyramids
it is usual to .diverge abont a quarter of a mile
in order to Yisit the .Sphiii.x. It is hard to

Kinglake's whO hAve - 'got by heart
'that eloquent 'passage' of 'poetical "proSe, in
which lie lands the beauty Of the ancient Coptic
type, and defies - the " iconoclast to mock at the
Sphinx, will find some ,of their enthnsiasth
vanishing when they discover that the head of
the • creature' has. lost almost allisemblance:of
humanity, that the nose' is -gone-and the chin
broken, and that enormous fragments have
been knocked out of the, cheeks.. It is difficult
to distingtlish- the tranquil, inscrutable smile,
or the extraordinary beauty which sent the
author of "Biithen! l ., into raptfirei. Successive
generations of
,image -breakers, or the great
iconoclast, "Time. have done their work
effectually, and the majestic loveliness of this
celebrated idol nil' longer exists except in the
imagination of the poet.'' Besides, vast as it is,
the Sphinx seems dwarfed in the presence of
the Pyramids: It belongs to alater, time and •

the desert. Sunsets viewed from thiS elevation
are
,niag,nificent. There is not the pageantry of
clonds that belongs to damper climates, but
thre, is the potent charm of strong and simple
coloring. The crimson flush that gathers over

glow that follows the sinking,ef the sun, the
sudden approach .of night, and the, delicate
transient hues which follow the departing.day,

the singular luthinousuess of the air. Stars so
large and lustrous that they can scarcely be
identified with the constellations that dimly
glimmer in the hazy northern climates, moon
light bright enough to shoW the grand forms
of the Pyramids better than the fierce glare of
of the afternoon, delicious breezes succeeding
the sultriness of day tempt one to linger long
after darkness has settled on the 'plain and the
minarets of Cairo have faded out of view. The
stillness is only interrupted by the croaking of
innumerable frogs, the Chirping of grasshop
pers, and bleating of distant flocks; and as the
returning traveler nears the river he hears the
low droning chant of the boatmen praying Allah
for fair winds or thanking Him for a prosperous
voyage.
French Editors Fighting a Duel.
The London Doily News gives the following
particulars of an ' , affair of honor" in France,
growing out of the publication of a caricature
in a newspaper:

That of Carlyle, of Browning, and of
Buskin.
There are writersi'who; finding that others
will not understand their noblest thoughts,
give up the effort at universal intelligibility, and
make the e*preSsion of their thoughts bizarre
and, needlessly, ditlicult.. „This .has,,we, think;
happened to two :Most distinguished Writers of
the present day—Mr. Carlyle and Mr. BroWnL
ing. No 'Whit!: writers hive a giO4ter compass
of. material in the knowledge of human na
ture'' and the early writings of bOth—Paracel
xus for instant*, and the essay :on Burtishad
in ;hem, necessarily, something :remote from
common zippreherision„ but yet nothing of wil 7 ,
ful obscurity. IC is bard not to think
together with that inert. powerful' flow. ivhi4li;
chanteteriies the later writings of both,there has'
not been mingled that contempt fertile common
reader which displays itself in a carelessnesSt of
being understood at alihy; the vulgar, And-we
fear that Mr. Carlyle has by this time advanced
so far that his writings of the present day are
no longer understood - by persons even of more
than vulgar capacity. NVhen Mr. Carlyle points
to the English, peerage as the salvation of the
country,we suppose we must believe that there
is some valuable meaning at the bottom of his
ntterance,but for the life of us we cannot make
out what it is. Mr. Browning has of late re
covered himself from that abyss of profound un
intelligibility into which he at onetime plunged;
but we would appeal to any one whether, he
had not, at the, time when he wrote the fol
lowing stanza,a very considerable contempt for
the ordinary understanding—whether he did
not laugh in his sleeve at the thought how he
was bothering and hamboozling the simple
public :
'Hobbs hints blue—straight he turtle eats;
Nobbs prints blue—claret crowns his cup;
Nokes outdares Stokes in azure feats;
Both gorge. Who fished the murex up?
What porridge had John Keats?
This stanza occurs at the end 0f... the poem
entitled "Popularity," which is one of those
chosen by Mr. Browning lffinSelf for the
volume of his selected poerns,,. and therefore
one, we suppose, peculiarly calculated to edify
the general reader. Amid the worst of it is
that the general reader is sometimes a person
who looks upon these oddities of style as some
thing exceptionally splendid, and adopts them
on his own account in productions width, as
they have none of Mr. Browning's. sehse and
cleverness to support them, arse marvellous and
lugubrious in the extreMe.
It is, however, for the sake of future ages,
falba - than for our own that such leccentrici- -
ties as these are to - INA - elifordth.,lloV•elt3r
of the thing serves to carry it off at first; the
very fact that nianyxminot understathl it lends
it the ::greater. zest in the 43yes of
those who fancy they do understand it; and,
even if the enthusiasm of the few
. caimot ex.
tend itself to the many, which however it
O often,
does, yet it 'offers in itself much comnsation..
But,as for future ages, though we oft this pre
sent age should feel bound to assure ]meth that`
the Latter Day Pamphlets or "Christ nas Eve"
contain matter most Werthy to be read and
studied, wetreinbletOthink of the, , PoSsibilify
there is that the difficulty of the task may pre
vent their. testing our. judgment.
The truth as respects Mr. Carlyle is, we. are
inclined to think, that his greatness baSill':no
way diminished throughout his literary career;
it, is not that he is the decay of his former self,
but that his genius, instead of being wrought
up and elaborated with the care and constant
attention to 'the understanding — Of Mankind
which is necessarTffir::_theAkitnithence : of-its
influence, now displays itself 'only in those
misty, gigantic Mims which more fitly belong

quent events did not justify. In the year.end
ing in April, 1869, a great number of the most
lbrmidable chiefs were either':killed' Ordaii
tured, and others surrendered themselves.
Eighteen bands, including those of Fuoco,
Guerrp.,'Pace, Ciccone, - 'and, otherS' nearly as'
formidable, have been ektermainated, and ac
cording to the military journal's account not
one now ranges. thecountry, which all these a,
year ago, 'infested,' nor 'has ' there for- many
months been committed a serious act of
brigandage. If there be no exaggeration in
this,we must discredit stories that have appeared
in the papers within the present year of Out
rages committed on the peasant families, of
young women carried to thelnonntains.an,d,
horribly treated, and of person's kidnapped
and held for. ransom. The report, however,
refers to n . partipular provinces, and does not
include Calabria, from which there is latenews
in a curious letter lately published in a Ravenn..3
journal and dated from Longobuco; a town
twenty five miles northeast from Cosenza.
The writer, apparently a country proprietor,
says:
"We Calabrians have beenso long perforce
accustomed to stay at home that we'hardly
ever go abroad, unless it be to the fair, where
we sell our produce and lay in our store for tke
year, to take a son to school, or to h 6 present
at the wedding of a near relative. Otherwise
We never lose sight of our dwellings. Now
suplio:;1; that a iplantuonzti, a roan in easy
circumstances; has occasion to travel for one of
these three causes. He earefUllY conceals his
intention; or, if it be inevitably known to his
family or other persons, he keeps the day •of
his departure secret, and Clandestinely procures
the inforniation and provision necessary for the
journey: :•Finally, he 'friiisters hiS l guiti•iik ', '...;'
if to giVe theM orders, mounts his likrek, - and
- Sets off at a trot, . without, a word front which ,
they can gatlier'whetliei he is going 'on a Morn
ing ride or on a long journey.
"Let me tell you what a guardixtuo is. He
,is the bravo of the Middle Ate. Like him,his
`stock in trade . is his courage' (WhiarsoMetimes
fails him) and 14 fidelity, which does not pre
vent his occasionally betraying his master to
brigands. Of these rficardialit people retain a
greater or less number in their service,•either
to make theta useful; or as a mere luxury; - or
by the force of habit, even in districts where
'brigandage has disappeared. The guard has
generally twenty to twenty-five francs a month,
and six; measures of wheat per amtuni—just
enotgli - td keep body and soul togethe4 .As
they cost "so little, most of us can aflbrd to
have half a dozen at our heels, which makes
us respected :by the lit.ople; The guard rides
an entire horse, with spurs fine inches long;lie
Carries a double-barrelled gun, and pistols are
.in his, holsters; Rupert -he was armed also
with 'cliviive hunting-knife; but Colonel Mien
has forbidden this. His garments are of vel
fvet, pantaloons. jacket and waistcoat in Sicilian
fashion. On his head he wears the famous
.pointed hat. encircled to the very top with rib
bons, of which the ends float elegantly.over his
right shoulder. With trifling difference's it is
the brigand's costume.
"Preceded by two •of these champions .-as
vanguard; escorted by four upon the flanks,
and with; : two bringing up the rear, one may
travel almost in safety,keeping always at the trot,'
'lt is well,l hoWever, to employ two as scouts, to
explore tLe hilly ground, otherwise the escort
may.prov ‘ useless. As to the roads, they are so ,
l l_
few that hey-may almoSt be said not to exist.
I hnagineithat in your country ravines and the
beds of rivers arc not, held' to he roads. With
us they 10e preferred to all others, since they
are not bordered by precipices, and with our
Horses thitt is a thing to consider. ' One runs
less risk 4 mortal injury in case of a fall. In
the mountainous districts there is generally a
mere trail:, and everybody takes what he thinks
the shortet cut. So that we luckless. Calabrians
canna' :traYel: without risk of lift!. When we
'shall have been rid of the brigands we shall
Still enjoy the probability of breaking our necks
. over picturesque precipices. AdMirers of the .
horrors of nature will do well to visit us ; they
assuredly will have their reward."
A Naples journal of the 19th instant gives de
tails proving that :brigandage is as yet tar from
suppressed in Southern Italy. The two bands
of Ferrigno and Pica have for some time been
working in Combination, forming a' total of
twenty-twit brigands; armed with double
' barrelled guns, revolvers and sabres. Two
women, dressed-as then, the mistresses of the
chiefs, accompany them and distinguish them-,
selves by their cruelty. ' A prisoner whom they
dragged about with thein for some' days, and
who has just escaped, relates curious
