;i MUSIC.
Aspirit came outi'rom the Lord
To.play on the spirit, of man; • .■ ‘
Thafcthrilledlike a wind-shaken Chord'*
■When the hymn of the ages began. ;
■ And the spiritut first was a,tight,
flaying over their souls us a gloss,
And tb* whiteness thereof ill their sight
Was lull of fair Colors that pass.
The spirit again was a stream,
' Wherein their own faces seem fair;
3311-they looked and saw new faces gleam
, , More beautiful still in the aif; : j'.
.And they faded and left them alone; • -
But they fashioned, and were not forlorn,
.:> The ghosts of that beauty In stone; '
And the word and the deed were twin-born,
And triumph, and joy, and defeat,
And the far-away echo of wrong,
. WeTe musical, holy and sweet,
For the spirit was changed to a song.
Arid thereafter they sought to the tenth, '
And the seeking was more than the_ sought;
For the world was forsaking her youth, _
And the spirit was changed to a thought,
The spirit is changed to a sound, ,
Vague, shapeless, without any speech
It is gone forth, being unbound,
Blind, aimless, of infinite reach.
That the age of our spirits might melt,
And the noise of our strife he atone,
In the raptures,that never were felt,
At the deeds that have never been done,
Of a country where uttermost bliss
And anguish are almost the same,
Of whose life we know nothing hut this—
It island it has not a name;
Where the perfume goes up from the flowers,
\Vhere the lustre goes up from the,dew,
That life which we know not is ours,
And the spirit’s last song is most true.
For we are what we do not know, ,
We shall have what we do not dream;
And our gladness and lahbr and woe
Are nothing, whatever they seein.
ABp6e®s of the soul shall see; '
We siianfind-what, we have not sought,
When the spirit is spirit and free.
Not a sight, not a song, not a thought.
Are the wings of the spirit broken,
For the sound of his flying as still?
Is the promise ineffably spoken
For the silence aloneito fulfil ?
It is darkness and silonce again,
The shadowy wings.are not.spread,
And w e echo their murmur in vain,
He is still, he is dumb, and not dead.
Yen, being a spirit, to die •
AV.TS'never tlie law ol his birth,
And he would not have needed to fly
Except to come down to the earth.
But he rises himself, through the seas
Of the fathomless heaven and sings,
Floating hack to his MasteT at ease
With our hearts folded aip in his wings.

! ONE OF LANDOIt’S QUARRELS.
■ A defence of England’s treatment of Napo
-1 leon, by Landor, in Latin, was detained by the
.censor at Como. Landor complained that the
rules of censorship excepted Latin compo
sitions:
“The regio delegate sent me information
(Writes Landor) that my Latin poems were de
tained only because it was customary to send
two copies, one of which continued in the
archives of ilie censor, but that if I was de
sirous of it I might apply to his office. Not
caring about the copy, I never went. About a
week afterwards he sent a second letter, to in
form me that he requested 'iny attendance on
A, affairs very interesting to me. I went imrnedi
“ atelv; He then discovered his first fallacy, and
began to read a letter from Count Strasoldo, in
which this fellow expressed his surprise that I
1 should, use injurious expressions towards the
„• royal censor, a person immediately acting
upder government. He then closed The letter
arid thought it requisite. to make a comment ’
upon it . He was astonished that 1 should write
an insolent letter. I stopped him quietly, and
said, ‘Sir, the word insolent is never applied to
a gentleman. If you had known the laws of
honor or propriety you would not have used
iL and if you had dared to utter it in any other
place you would have received a bella basto
nata.’ At this lie sprang from his chair and
rang the bell. He called the guards and all
the officers of the police, wlio live under the
same roof during the daytime, , With these re
inforcements he pursued: ‘Btajpare instantly to
conduct this gentleman to Milan. Sir, unless
you immediately retract your words you answer
to government.’ I replied:‘l never retract any
word of mine; but I tell you in presence of all
these persons that before 1 leave this room you
■shall retract yours.’ He then pretended tliat ;
he said rather insolent, that insolent meant j
disrespectful or violent,that if I liad understood ;
the language I should not have animadverted j
on the expression, that lie expressed >]
the sentiments of Count Strasoldo. I replied;
‘I care not a quattriuo what are the sentiments
•. of .Count Strasoido; but lie would not dare,and
.-vf*. — ypu may tell him that lie would not dare,from
-~i ■ • me, to use any such expression towards his
1 equal. There is not one among the guards you
\ have called in . who would endure it. As-for
, your sending rue to Milan under arrest, do it,
if you are not afraid of exposing yourself still
more than you have done.’ ile then began
talking of lii's honor, that lie had been in tlie
service, that (lie threat "of a caning was not to
be home, and tliat if it was not for his high
office he would settle tlie business with his
' sword in the square. I laugliedin liis lace; and
the rascal had the baseness to oiler his hand
in token of reconciliation, and to tell me wliat
a friend lie had always been of the English.
The story was carried all over the town the
same evening, although it rained heavily.”

tage Brown, who was present at the grand ex
plosion, to Landor,) my patience would have

my astonishment, sat with a composed countc;
nance, never once making use of an uncivil
expression, unless the following may be so
considered, when, after about an hour, she
seemed exhausted : ‘I beg, madam, you will, if
you think proper, proceed; as I made up my
mind, from the first, to endure at least twice as
much as you have been yet pleased to speak.’
After dinner, when I saw her leave the-room, I
followed, and imampointed out her' mistake,
when she readily agi;eed with me, saying slip '

lIOW BYRON BURST UPON the CLASSICAL
, ‘school of poetry. ; ..
Very sore.was Southey’s needof liis friendfs
praise just now (18111), for upon him and upon
Wordsworth dark days liad set ; ih. The still
continuing arid -increasing rage for Byro’n'and
liis imitators had all but extinguished what
scant popularity the other once enjoyed,.arid’
for .selling power ] their books werp' at zero.,
Southey had hoped to see the bubble burst in
•a year or two; hut double the time liad come
.and- gone., and never did it soar so high as now,
or flare out. with wliat doubtless seemed to bun'
such frothy hut highly colored pretences. 1 Re
plying letter of his friend ill May, 1819,
lie cannot, control his temper., "He describes
tlie fashionable compound as made up of mor
bid feelings, atrocious principles, exaggerated
charactersj.and incidents of monstrous and dis
gusting horror; adding that the more un-Eng
lish, auteCiiristian ' and immoral it was,' the
surer .it was of being better liked, provided only
it were skivered over with a frotliof philosophy.
Was dt wonderful tliat, such being the fashion,
Wordsworth was despised and abused ? The
getting :»busod in such company was his own
solitary hit of comfort, for nobody paid liim
the compliment-ot'Jmitating what he did.
LANDOR TO THE RESCUE —HE BEARS .DOWN
ox iintox,
“Afterwards,’'said Landor of his Lordship,
■in .an “Imaginary Conversation,” “whenever
lie wrote a .bad ,peem, he supported Dads sink
ing fame by some signal act of profligacy; an
■elegy by a seduction, a heroic by .an adultery,
a tragedy by a divorce. On tlie remark of a
learned man that irregularity is no indication
of genius, lie began to loose ground rapidly,
when on .a sudden be cried out at the Hayrnar
ket: There is no God. It was then surmised
more[ generally and more gravely that there was
something in li'ini, and lie stood upon his' legs
almost to (lie last.”
LANDOR REFUNDS TO HIS PUBLISHERS.
“l am not informed (wrote Landor in 1830)
how long this .Scotchman ( Blackwood's Mai/a
zine) hashoen at work about me, hut my pub
lisher lias advised me that he loses £l5O by my
Pericles. So that it is probable tlie Edinburgh
Areopagites have condemned me to a fine in
my absence; for inever can allow any man to
be a loser by me, and am trying to economize
to the .amount of this indemnity to Saunders
and Otley. * * * * I think it probable
that I shall fix myselfat Clifton for a year.”
The Blackwood review Was really not a bad
one, and, with a laugh for the absurdity of its
parallel passages, .might have satisfied any man;
lie described it himself as a mere “kick on tlie
shin between two compliments”; yet wliat
was here threatened was soon afterwards
actually done, and. the hundred pounds which
Mr. James had obtained for the MS. of Pericles
was paid back by Landor to its publishers. It
may he held perhaps hereafter among the curi
osities of literature that an author should have
done this. lam not acquainted with any other
instance.
iiazlitt's orixiox of Wordsworth’s
HKAUTY.
Landor, .expressing much admiration of
Wordsworth, said he had a strong desire to see
him. “We]l, sir,” said Ilazlitt, “you never
saw him, then? But you have seen a horse, I
suppose ?” Landor smiled, and he went oil.
“Well, sir, if you have seen ajhorse, I mean his
head, sir, you may say you have seen Words
worth.” It should he added, however, that
the poet’s face had been a sore subject with
Ilazlitt ever since his luckless attempt to paint
it twenty years before, when Southey had de
scribed the result as presenting Wordsworth at
the foot of the gallows, deeply affected by his
deserved fate,yet determined to die like a man.
“Hazlitt in those days,” Wordsworth after
wards wrote, “was practising portrait-painting
with professional views;” and 'thus, at one of
his first ventures, the ambitious young limner
had stumbled oil the threshold.
lIOW DICKENS FOUND LAXDOJi's HOUSE AT
FIESOLE.
Ten years after Landor had lost Lliis home,an
Englishman traveling in Italy, his friend and
mine, visited the neighborhood for his sake,
drove out'from Florence to Fiesole, and asked
his coachman which was the villa in which the
Landor family lived, “lie was a dull dog, and
pointed to Boccaccio’s. I didn’t believe him.
lie wits so deuced ready that I knew he lied. I
went up to the convent, which is on a height,
and was leaning over a dwarf wall, basking in
the noble view over a vast range of hill and
valley, when a little peasant girl came up and
began to point out the localities. Echo la villa
Laniloml was one of’ the first half-dozen sen
tences she spoke. My heart swelled up almost
as Lander's would have done when I looked
down upon it, nestling among its olive trees
and vines, and with its upper windows (there
arc live above the door) open to the setting
sun. Over the centre of these there is another
story, set upon the housetop like a tower; and
all Italy, except its sea, is melted down into, the
glowing landscaiie it commands.. . I plucked a
leaf of ivy from the convent gardeiias I looked;
and here it is. For Landor. With my love.”
So wi ote Mr. Dickens to me from Florence on
die 2d of April, IBIS; and when I turned over
Landor’s papers hi the same month sifter an in
terval of exactly twenty years, the ivy-leaf was
found carefully enclosed, with the letter in
which,l had sent it. /, •

At an old bookseller’s in Bristol he picked up
some of the writings of Blake,and was strangely
fascinated by them. lie was anxious to have
collected as many more as lie coidd, aiid en
listed me in the service; but lie as much wanted
patience for it as I wanted time, and between
us it came to nothing. He protested that
Blake had been AVordswortli’s- prototype, and
wished they could have divided his madness be
tween them; for that some accession of it in the
one case and something of. a dimilmtion of it
hi tlie other,' would very greatly have unproved,
-both;. K- ; ! ; • ;„>

il had ashed him what lie thought the finest
' thing in tliat kind, moilerh or ancient; aud he r
answered/without hesitation* by miming these
dozen words of Chatham: “T-he first shot .that
is fired in America separates the two coun
tries.” -
“Wliat searching sagacity! what inevitable
truth! The surest sign of a great prophecy is
the coincidence of admiration and unbelief.

Athenians that ‘the year hath lost its spring.”’
LANDpK’S OLD MASTERS.
Landor had by' this time become known, not
wisely but too well, among the Italian picture
dealefSjWho passed through his-.hands as many
rare Old masters as Would have set up the for
tunes of, half the galleries, of Europe. In this,
ais in ,too many, other things, he had . lio other
judgment than his will, and a cheerful self
■ imposture enabled him in perfect good faith to
carry'on the imposture honestly with all, even
the inscals who made it'their commodity,
lie wOjild so prepare you by a letter .for his
Riibengorhls Raffaelle,or in its presence would
: do it homage with such perfect good faith- that
your own eyes were; ready as his to be made
fools to the other senses. “Your picture found
'its way to Altbii,” wrote Augustus Hare to him
in the summer of 1833, “and we thought it
almost worthy of the letter which announced
, its coming. More perfect than that letter.it could
not havebeenif Rafl'aelie had pamted the whole

purchased, some masters its old as Perugino.' He
now tells his sisters (Btli January, 1834,) that
he lias a great many more pictures going to

Landor had liis home in Bath, and
while the Exlribitiori of *5,1 was bringing, all
.the world to: London,' lie was ..reminded W the
American sculptor (Greenough) Who thus vis
ited him w.itli Emerson,of one subject-tliat had
arisen in itheir .conversation under liis -“fig-trees'
•ori the southern slope of the Fiesdlan hills,” riot
included in liis .countrjimanls .recollections.
Looking down on the little village where
Michael Angelo was bom, they had. spoken of
the land effort that the Tuscan princes had
chosen chiefly to encourage in Florence, since
the date When the founder of the monarchy
entered as prince, and Michael Angelo went
out as exile. This was Hie art of mosaic—the
school for fashioning “piebald mineralogical
specimens into a greater or less re
semblance of fruits, flowers and land
scapes;” which had flourished while
Giotto was overlaid With whitewash and
Leonardo and Eallaelle were carried off by
strangers from their native cities; and which
had dared at last to rear,by the very side of the
tombs ef Giuliano and Lorenzo* the so-named
(and well-named) Gliapel of the Princes, all of
whose ornaments were the products of its
Clunese industry 'aniKTurkisli taste. Mr.Green
ougli reminded Landor of a remark lie had
made upon then having) with such gewgaws
brushed the very beard of the sculptor of
Moses, that it was “as if a fellow in
a laced coat should start up to claim atten
tion where Ciesar was and was speaking;” and
wliat now would he say to the production that
had been sent over from Florence to represent
the birthplace of Buonurotti at the world’s fair,
which was neither more nor less tliaii a table
in pietra dura that had cost a hundred thousand
frnneessoni, or, in other words, a day's work
of four hundred thousand Tuscans! “I can
not but think,” was Greenougli’s appeal to
Landor, “that such stolid impertinence as this
calls for justice at your hand.”
“Now posswres.”
Fisk and Adelina Patti.
The N. Y. Sun says:
Among the many interesting particulars that
we have learned from perusing the last num
ber of the Eco (V Italia is the fact that our dis
tinguished fellow-citizen, Admiral James Fisk,
Jr., is a master of the Latin language. We
have long been aware that lie was gifted with
many accomplishments, hut his familiarity with
the noble old dialect of Homulus and Ilemus
had not before come to our knowledge. The
Eco (V Italia states, however, that when Mad
ame Patti-Csthx received the offer of an en
gagement to sing a hundred nights in the Uni
ted States, made to her on behalf of the Ad
miral, her demands were-so enormous, that.
Fisk, Jr:, instantly replied by telegraph in the
Latin words: Non poxsumvs. If what is stated
’ of Patti’s exactions be correct, this was not only
good /Latin, but good sense. The young
lady asked for the hundred nights two hundred
thousand dollars’'iii gold, one-half of the whole
sum to be deposited for her in France before
sailing, and the other.half to be-paid night by
night, two hours before each performance. She
also required that she should be allowed to
choose all the other artists to be engaged to
sing with her. t *. ■//
Madame Patti is a very shrewd woman of'
business, and her husband is quite as keen
after the main chance as she is; hut at. this
rate we shall probably never again hear her
siiig in America. When Jenny Lind came here
she" had a hundred thousand dollars for ninety-:
seven nights. Patti asks twice as much; aiid
qven so'audacious and magnificent an operator
as tiie great'Fisk is so astonished by it .that lie
answers in Latin: “We can’t do it.” . , : / ;

The New York .Sun says:
; An aimising,anil at. the same time provoking
illustration :of the - feckless' manner in which
baggage; .is -handled on railroads _in
this country, was' experienced by a friend
of; oixi-s. just previous to the Fourth.
He; was, taking half a dozen; boxes' of
the biggest kind of torpedoes, packed, as he,
thought, securely enough, in a leathern port
manteau, to his children in the country. His
route, part of the - way, lay on the Hudson
River Railroad, and, of course, the portman
teau was liuried end over end' into the baggage
car, find again, in the same savage faShion, out
of it. The result was, that when the children
came to inspect their treasures, they found
that all the torpedoes, in spite of boxes, hnil
sawdust and clothing around;the-boxes, had
prematurely exploded, - and were, in conse
quence, worthless 1 The pecuniary loss Was
insignificant ; but if childish disappoint
ment could be measured in damages, the
Railroad Company would have a heavy bill to
pay. And this leads us to warn those of our
readers for, whom the warning is not too late,
that they carry anything of a fragile nature in
their trunk's when they travel at an enormous
risk. Bottles of cologne water will like as not
be found on unpacking 'emptied of their con
tents; tooth-powder will whiten other things
than teeth; and as for ink, no words can de
scribe the rashness of him who ventures, to
carry it otherwise than in a cast-iron vessel,
with a well-soldered stopper. The -trunks
themselves should be well riveted and hooped,
and should not be expected to last duringraore
than one or at most two summer campaigns.
One of these days we shall compel railroad
companies to treat travelers’ baggage as if they
had some sense of their ditty to tlie public, hut
at.present Bedouin Arabs could not be more
lawless.
Intemperance in aiaryland.
The Boston Sun says: “It is a startling esti
mate, but brie which is by many believed to
he fair, that 1 not less titan one out of every
-three of the residents of Maryland, as well as
-of other States, are suffering in ’various ways
from the effects of intemperance. An appeal
is published by the trustees of the Maryland
Inebriate Asylum for assistance to enable them
to erect suitable buildings and accommodations
for the asyhuri, which was incorporated by the
Legislature nine years ago. Dr. A. C. Robin
son is president of the board, with twelve trus
tees residing in Baltimore and one in each
county of the State. The State lias given
for the use of this institution thirty acres of
the 130 set apart for tlie Insane Asylum at
Catonsville. There has been subscribed from
$22,000 to $23,000 for the erection of a suitable
building.. The Insane Asylum being unfinished,
with the exception of the north wing, which is
expected to be ready for occupancy next month,
it is proposed, by authority of an aot of the Leg
islature, to give tlie use of tills wing temporarily
to the Inebriate Asylum, transferring to that
place the patients now at Maryland Hospital,
Monument street and Mount Hope. From five
to ten thousand dollars are needed to commence
the institution in this temporary location. As,
however, in two years, the Insane Hospital
will be completed and be required for its own
exclusive purposes, a building mast be speedily
erected for the exclusive use of the Inebriate
Asylum, and the trustees invoke the assistance
of all philanthropists for this purpose."

|THE OBAMA.
conuarison of the English and French
.•••'■ ■ Stage.
- (Frum Macmillan* Magazine.!
We stood once highest among countries
whose dramatic literature was the Ugliest.
We have entirely lost that position now. We
stand in the matter of dramatic literature on
a lower level than any other country in Europe
dec-use of the muTisit stage.
It'Will serve ps as a justification to say that
the taste for the drama itself lias declined; for
when our drama ■ stood loftiest (in modern
times) the dnuna was cultivated and respected
•"■'in'all other nations.'" And it is so at this mo
ment in eveiy other European country save
England. It is in England only that the glory
of the drama lias gone down, and it is a fact
much lo he deplored, for it coincides with an
undeniable degeneracy of taste,and it suppresses
the noblest form of expression affected by the
national tongue.
We say advisedly ‘-the noblest,” because ■in a
really great drama nothing should fail, and the
liiglier the truths you utter (so they be truths)
the more inevitable you impress the crowd, no
matter of what various elements it may be
formed. To compose a great drama is a lofty
aim. and one to which any man may be proud
to aspire.
To restore life to the glorious dead, and tor a
brief space put the present and the past face to
face, was for ages the chief object of dramatic
art . It implied a grand exercise of man's finest
faculties, and through all time we devoutly
honor such names as that of. JEscliylus. But
as the years roll on, the deed grows to be less
thought of, and the man who did it, more; we
becouie as St. Augustine wished we should do,
curious of ourselves. After Action had reigned
supreme through the whole of the Middle Ages,
and—extremes yielding forever the same re
sults—we have witnessed the same sacrifice of
the. individual to the fact achieved, of which
our most advanced brethren in America furnish
a fresh example; after tins period, men come to
turn their eves inward, and ask why they did
this or that deed. The deed itself lost its ex
clusive interest, and the doer of it became the
problem to be solved. . ' A
THE MODERN SCHOOL.
Of this modern school of dramatic art, the
■ completest expression that can be conceived
is Shakespeare. However we may try, we can
conceive beyond nothing. ■
Throughout antiquity and the darker times
men did more than they talked or thought.
Now, and since’ the Sixteenth Century,we grtul-
Bally talk and think more than we do; mail's
motives become, as it were, actors, and the
reason of Wliat he achieves -interests, us even !
more than, the achievement.. AVe repeat it, we
"are-curious of ourselves, and. ; oue vast note of
interrogation stamps'itself upon nearly every
. .expressed fbim of our,thought. A; J '' _
It is just possible that in tiffs dramatic tact
of the altered motive of the . drama may lie
.somewhat of our national neglect of it, for we
still appear singularly aesirous.of avoiding w hat--
■ soever comes uuder the head ,of self-analysis. .
Foreign nations have never shrunk from this,
hut on tlie contrary and for two "centuries the
« French drama has in reality rested its whole
■ fabric upon the development ’ of character— *
upon cause's which' have dotenuiued certain
men to do certain deeds.’- . . '
Tiffs school / begins Avith Racine’s “Bere
nice,” whichis, -from first- to; last, an. inquisi
tion into the depths of the human heart. No
romim d'anahjne ofMadame Sand herself ever
-proved greater ekUl in the-art -oL moral-=anat-.

—take all these, and you will find that the in--
terest rests upon the solution of some ppycho-;':
logical 1 problem. Even ;in the ease of; Mr.
SardOu, where the act, the deed,; lias its large:
share, the genuine interest nevertheless restss
qrf jtlie passion that is /endured,; on’tlie suffer
ing that is brought to hear from without, arid;
moulds the internal man. if
Shall love compel- patriotism, or patriotism;

Sardou. He decides in favor of patriot-;
ism; and the great public Out of doors,the 1 -
population of all classes of a vast city; decides/
witii him, and,, short of absolutely carrying
him in triumph, gives every other mark of en-,
thusiasm that can be imagined. - f f
Here again; in countries where the drama is
still- -actively cultivated, r as in/Germany and
France! is. its supreme; dignify and use, that it
is to the frill; Us ; much as ' political discussion;
the exponent as well as the thermometer of the

wherever the form of govenunent
sentative tbedrahm oilglit to flourish,’ for if it
does not; the true - inference is that’civilizatiou
is tending downward instead of upward, and
is material amj coarse. .A great Parliamentary
speaker may become a iuinister, and help to
fashion the institutions of a country; but a
great dramatic creator" (i. c. a man who uttere
grand thoughts through the mouths of beings
who, while they speak them, live,) helps to;
fashion human minds in countries. Parlia
ment makes measures; the drama .makes men.
THE dkamatist.
It is not true to say that a great poet lias as
much influence as a great dramatist; he lias
not, for the clement of publicity is, wanting;
the electric action of soul* upon soul, the im
mediate action of man upon man. It is for
this that the drama in itself is the grandest
form of expressed thought—it contains all
others. To be a supreme dramatic poet (we
will take Shakespeare, Calderon, Goethe as the
highest examples—Schiller comes long after)
a man must lie everything else. He must be a:
politician, a historian, a poet, a philosopher and
an orator. He must combine two radically op
posite natures; and be at once a naan of action
and of thought; lie must conceive and criticise,
but, above all, he must directly and publicly
impress a crowd of other men. He must, with
Egmont. teach tyrants of all times how they
foolishly forfeit dominion; and with Hamlet
reflect the impress of other men’s deeds, and

Absolute excellence—hard to attain every
where—is of harder attainment in the , drama
than in any other form of literature, because,
as we have said, it implies so much; but apart
from absolute excellence achieved, the drama
is, of its kind, noble, and its cultivation is a
healthy thing in a great community.
Now iit the present moment bow'does if
stand with uk? ita'compared* with the two
great centuries of, European civilization, .with
France and Germany, and above : all with
France, what have we? France has orators,
so have we; novelists, poets, first-rate histo

we have none. Take, for instance, a man

has none, and, therefore, remains incomplete,
and we, the public; remain ignorant of the en
tire worth of our best poets and thinkers. We
never possess them wholly. The French do.

for instance, feels life surging up within liiin;
be finds expression in verse, seizes the public
ear while yet a boy, and is driven onward by
success! The creative power oppresses liiin; he
bursts upon the stage, creates, imparts, life to
human beings,"and' begins a struggle with the
entire publicof/France, which lasts for over a
quarter of a century.. There is, from a purely
icsthetical point of view, far more to blame than
to praise hi Huso's dramas, but they run over
with life, and they are the extreme expression
of the poet. 'Franceknows.hHabout Hugo; we
very incompletely know our thinkers and poets.
That it was worth while knowing wliat was in
Victor Hugo is proved by the'recent revival of
“HEUNAN'I.”
Here is a play, written : five-aml-tliirty years
ago,at the outset of a career, which play suffices
as the proclaimer of national protestation five
und-fhirty years after. There was evidently
something there, and tliat sometliing would
have been obtained in no other possible form.
When the younger masses of the nation, in the
year 1807, were chafing and sickening over the
basenesses and corruptions of the actual regime
in France, they did not exhume a speech of any
political orator,or quote phrases from any great
moralist’s lucubrations; they foimd all they
wanted in the grandeur (for, in spite of all its
enormous defects, it never loses, that) of
“Hernani,” and, catching fire at the flame, they
exploded. ,
' Here was a public fact—a fact telling upon
the public life, and produetible only by the
public poetry, :is I would fain style it, of the

BE GIH.VBDIX.
Another case in point is to be found in the
‘■Supplice d’une Femme.” M. de Giranlin—to
whose various manifestations of himself the
public is indispensable, who could not breathe
if lie did not think the public was there—M. de
Girardin, who could address the nation from
every tribune and through every organ, did not
hesitate to turn at once toward the stage: A
great disorder seemed in his sight to be exist
ing socially; he laid it bare. For'years, .writers
of all degrees had been, excusing adultery,
poetizing illicit 16ve; he was struck only by its
terrors! and its vileness, He painted coarsely a
picture of what adultery really is, tore away its
poetry, showed the degradation achieved by a
woman who is loved illicitly, and sentenced to
the perpetuity of her fault; and the effect was
attained. " i ■ :
The piece was Inferior in every point of
view, save one. It was ill-written, ill-con-/
stracted; but it contained a truth, and for tliat
it stood, and yet stands. It also told upon the -

There is no citizen in France who would not
desire, if-he had it.inhim, to produce a great
drama. There lies the dignity of the stage; in
France. The drama, besides being a supreme
expansion of human, thought, wluclpit is un
wise to suppress, is an aim toward which every
man of genius tends naturally; for whatever

What is'most fo be deplorcd is the absence;
of serious criticism hi this country 'on whafe,
soever. touches the.. drama. _ Without soaring
into the cloudy transcendentalism of Germa,ri ;
esthetics, it will suffice to cast a glance over the
average run of .literary', criticism in the daily
press of France, to see how vastly superior in*
conscientiousness it is to ours. There are ups
and downs in literature in France, as_ every
where else; periods when this or that form of
thought asserts itself more or less, but there is;
always a Body-eritical and always a public.
Now* these two aliment each other. Where
the public is intelligent and active, the Body-;
critical cannot afford to be negligent; and where;
the Body-critical does its whole duty always,;
the public will never fail.
; Our complaint is, that here in England, ive;
have neither Body-critical -nor public in the,
true sense. Wliericntlcism * nods, a genuine
public wakes it up -vety, .quickly;. but where
there is no longer sitcli i public, criticism must
, take.care of ; ,itself,-for it has immense responsi
bilities. 'Three' or four- writers or moderate
talent but thorough, conviction would suffice;

plastic. But there are a few primoitiial rules
that critics must lay down.for themselves and
observe. It is not enough to blame or. praise
riierely. Criticism ignores wholesale praise and
still more wholesale blame. Criticism takes
every part of a whole into account, and that;
nicely; adds up scmpulously the sums oneithei!

end an even balance. Criticism is'the assize!;

LOKD X.YtTON’B “niGBTFI&L HEII1.”
It Ls one out of many cases in point, and liap-
peus to lie the nwst repent one.. ;
It seems to many persons that, in the state
of our stage m England, Lord Lytton’s late
drama was not one with which to deal harshly.
There * might be objections'to-make; granted;
there were many deficiencies to point out, and
there was tlie fact .(admitted by the author him
self in bis preface j of the play having been “re
written.” Re-written is Lord Lytton’s own
expression, and the circumstance of its hayiiu*
been thus ? “re-written,” and ot its; having hi
the origin been “suggested” by a novel of Al
exandre Dumas, would seem to be the chief
reasons for the disfavor with which it has been
regaided by English critics.’ - . !
We avow our incapacity to appreciate the
gravity of these two objections. Most dramas
have in all times beeii “suggested”’ by incidents
recorded elsewhere, either in liistory or fiction?
anil if a play, even once acted, be found de
fective, and be “rewritten”,'in order to be im?
proved, we would submit that that is a fact
to lie welcomed, and not harshly greeted by the
public.
The incidents are; of a stirring nature, yet
not verging on tlie impossible; taking into
count It he moment of our histoiy in which the
drama is placed, there is nothing extravagant
in tlie blot; nor is there anything in tlie cliarac
tersthemselves wliicli tloes not belong'to them
naturajlv.
Lord Lytton’s play is full of passages of
strength anti beauty;'riot made to ! be read arid
jiondered over, but to be listened to by the pul*
lie as necessary' to the action in which, they are
interested. , ~ •;
Let us grant tliat there may lie a laiger mea
sure of deficiencies in “The Rightful Heir”
than we individually recognize; still; for many
reasons, we hold that the work was , entitled
to a very different measure of favor from, that
which it lias received. '
Firstly, the absence of a national drariia be
ing deeply to be deplored, any serious dramatic
attempt ought to be hailed with; gratitude and
respect, and the poefs and thinkers of a couri
trv be encouraged to aim at this completest
form of expression. And, secondly, Lord
Lytton’s right to this respect at the hands of
every English critic would seem an almost un
deniable one; for not only has lie for a quarter
of a century bad a lion’s share in tlie task of
drawing the world’s attention to English litera
ture, but especially lie has done more than any
writer since Knowles towards raising the con
dition of our stage.

preserve the customs and semi-barbarous su
perstitions that have distinguished their people
and country. They bury "their dead at night,
and, like the American Indian, slaughter upon
the grave some auimal the deceased loved in
life. Saturday afternoon a young, girl, died on
Barracks street, and waS buried Sunday night,
in the old cemetery on Gentilly road. There
being no priest of then- religion here, the cere
mony was performed by the oldest man oi then'
country residing among them. He was clad in a
long black robe,and preceded.on foot,the cortege
which conveyed the remains to the grave. Arriv
ing there the tomb was anointed and a fish and
some cake placed in the vault. This /was ac
companied by a ceremony at once solemn and
impressive. This over, a bird was killed aiul
laid on the breast of the deceased, wliile all-the
friends and relatives passed by the coffin,'each
one laying their hand on the head and saying
in tlieir native tongue the simple word farewell!
No tears ware slied. Tliey do not view the
transition of the soul an occasion of grief. The
Solemn parting is but a temporary separation,
and the resignation they manifest aflords an
example Christians might well conclude to imi
tate. The ceremonial over, the family returned
home accompanied by their immediate friends,
and fruit and wine aiid bread are given to each'
in tlie name of the dead. By it they promise
to preserve their constancy to eacli other, and
by tlieir love for the dead perpetuate tlieir
friendship. —New Orleans Picayune, 30th.
