We are obliged to confine our praise of Harper’s Mayazine now-a-days to .the letter press. So far as Harper's purports to be a periodical explained or rendered attractive by the fine arts, it is more and more an insult to the improving taste of the Country; the char acter of its pictures retrogrades while the public demand grows higher. The works of native art it engraves have been getting more .vulgar for some time back, until this month the maga zine effects its righteousness by not having any. As to the cuts transferred from foreign publi cations, the Originals in all the later cases might put in a complaint siniilar to Fullalove’S in ‘‘Hard Cash,” —“They broke the . seventh and eighth commandments' both, over hie, first stealing lhy property and then ‘ adulterating it,” In the present number the transfers in the first article, and those in My®.’ Muloch Craik’s and Mr. Justin MCCartljy’ismovels > are savagely chopped and then ppkited in muddy gray. The literary matter of the August number is compiled with all Harper's , tireless , industry and skill. The foreign country victimized this month is Japan, and Harper's picks the bones of the retiring and exclusive-natured Nippon quite clean for its brood of insatiably curious readers. It avails itself for this purpose of the hook entitled “ Our Life in Japan,” by two officers of the British Horse-guards, selections from which were long ago laid before the read ers of this paper.—“ South-Coast Saunterings,” by Moncure D.' Conway, we are glad, in com mon with all readers who love the indiscre tions and personalities of literature, to see re newed once more. Mr. Conway still strays along the borders of the Manche, among a population who he thinks have many of the qualities of the French just opposite; he im parts curious gossip about the Marquis of Bute, William Gilpin, Robert Owen the Socialist, Southey and William Allingham.— I Those two papers are the best, but there is originality in the Oxford beadle’s view of the City of Col leges, and curious information in “ Slavery in Palaces.” As Spanish history is not much studied, our readers may be amused with the following account of the treatment of a daughter of Henrietta of England, Maria Louisa, Queen of Charles n., in the court Where Philip HI. had been politely roasted to death, in strict etiquette: , : CHAKLES 11. AND MAIUE I.OUISE. , His appearance was thus described by the English embassador, and is truly ghastly: “The King’s ankles and knees swell, liis eyes bag, the lids as red as scarlet, and the rest of lus | face a greenish-yellow; the whole crown bald. He hath a .ravenous stomach, and swallows all he eats whole; for his nether jaw, like that of / Charles V. at a more advanced age, stands so much out that his two rows of teeth can not meet; to compensate which he has a prodigious ' ,wide throat, so that a liver or gizzard of a hen ! goes down whole.” • . The poor Imbecile King did his best to amuse his wife, but not with much effect. He would play with her at joncets —which appears to have been an amusement of the nature of that known among us us spills—for three or foui hours a day. The King had a frightful jeal ousy of everything French. He had been told by the Terra Nueva that his wife was of a light nature,-and that, coming as she did from alight Court, every precaution was necessary. The poor idiot was so jealous at the sight of anything French that he could not even endure the Queen’s French spaniels, and cried, when he entered her apartments, “ Fuera, fuera, perros frailceses!” {Begone, begone, ye French dogs!?) | The Queen] bad two parrots who talked French, and these with her spaniels were her chief companions. Disappointed as it appeared she was likely to be in the hope of cldldren, which, however, the King persisted in looking for, she concentrated all her affection on these pet creatures, j But the Terra Nueva, herself hating all things French, and trusting to a,like hatred on the part of the King, one day, when the Queen was out for a drive, twisted the parrots’ necks] ■ On the return of their mistress she called foriher birds and her dogs as usual.' At the mention of her birds the maids ofhonor looked at each other without speaking. The truth, however, was told; and when the Carna yera Mayor appeared to kiss the Queen’s hand ps usual, tbeuneek spirit of Marie Louise could ’"endure no longer; she gave the Terra Nueva two or three slaps with her hand on either cheek. ; The rage! of the slie-griliin, the descendant of while his passionless eye sank deliberately into Fernando Cortez, the feudal proprietress of. that of the unlucky youth.

We will conclude by quoting Mr. Curtis’s grace ful notice,in the Easy Chair, of the dead editor whose principles of life cannot be too often or too long upheld among the teachers and pupils of the present school of daily journalism:. (OTITIS OX\KAYMOND. Mr. Raymond’s biography lias been given with affectionate detail in all the papers; nor is there any difference of opinion as to his re markable ability and accomplishment. It seemed at one time, not many years ago, as if there were an almost equal consent of opinion as to his want of earnest conviction and of : high purpose. ’ But there were probably very few\. who stood in the gloomy church oh the stormy summer eveiiing of Ins funeral Who had not at last perceived the injustice of this estimate, and who were not willing to echo Mr. Beecher’s, wish—‘jlf this were trimnrmg, would to God there were more trimmers!” T. J-D. Indeed, there has been a curious and most agreeable want of more eulogy in all that has been said of him. The. tone pf remark has been most tender, whatever the estimate! of his character and career; but everything has been' the result of a real impression and a thoughtful consideration. The key of liis life, and of the peculiar, impression; that he produced, is un questionably, and by common consent, the ju dicial mental, temperament which, refuses to acknowledge that there are ifot two sides to all questions.', He lived at a time when there was the most-emphatic necessity of sternly asserting one side, and of not weakening the assertion by the counter-declaration that the other was nearly as good. A man who lias doubts, with Proudhon, whether after all property is not robbery, will liave a very gentle feeling for the thief. ■ - " But with Mr. Raymond there was ho ques tion of the end, but of the means. Here again he fell upon a time when the means seemed ofteninvolve the end: and to choose one method rather than another was necessarily to work for a different result. This position cost him the confidence of the political party with which he had always acted, and .which had often honored him.. But this loss of confidence, of which he was perfectly aware, however painful to him, however it may have baffled his hopes and ambition, did not embitter him; and where is there the public man who ever more-generously owned what he at last be lie v<Jd to be a mistake, or who, by his treatment of liis own error, more raised himself in the general estimation ? This is not tlie place, however, nor is it our purpose, to do more than to add one word of friendly and grateful remembrance to the elo quent praise that has been uttered. In this working world and country Mr. Raymond died of overwork —a man yet not fifty years old. He never spared himself; and he has not lived vainly if among the other services of his life it teaches us to do in that , respect what he did not. He has left no book to keep his name fresh. His service has been mainly that of the great journalist, and that fame is brief. But in the history of the profession which he loved he will always be honorably mentioned; and with his journal his best fame will be asso ciated. Harper's Magazine is sent us by Turner.

AItTSIIiDV IN THE IMPERIAL SCHOOL AT PARIS. “Style” and “<lnali|y”-~'The Routine or Work—Eugenie. Our academies, or studies of the figure, after all the care they receive, finish, by kicking about the studio, by being used for wrappers and envelopes, by serving as palimpsests of a variously burlesque and disrespectful nature, and, generally, by being handled without gloves. And then the professor—his Saturday comments, when the copies are finished for inspection, are often accompanied with illustra tive lines, where the crayon deeply drives its plowshare over the most dainty surfaces, leav ing devastation and disfigurement behind. Of course these impolite diagrams become the elements of value in the picture; but; it is strik ing at first to see the relish with which the professional weapon will scathe and blacken the best dandyisms of the stump or brush. “Bad. Bad. Strongly bad. Bad as to de sign. Bad as to movement. Bad as to feel ing. Bad as to color.” This minute damna tion, enforced with a repudiating gesture tliat set the disciple’s easel reeling, was perhaps the dreadfullest 1 have heard.- It closed with a look—the professor musing upon his pupil, S. | jSjfaClf ><■# NO. VI. henrdapplied to the limnerof tbeDead Caesar. leonfine myself to quoting opinions! of painters, ■who usually restrict their, comments, toabtother artist’s tecftniguei’without verging at all upton the broad questioriof his morale. The public at large is probably* the better critic of the influence of that striking succession of drama-tableaux which have -been issuing for the last twenty years from under his firm hand. I have seen them nearly all, from his first painting, a Madonna that opt-Raphaeled Raphael in self-conscious maidenliness and re-, pose. His principal, pictures, as my reader is aware, divide themselves into -two classes; there is the class in which a murdered corpse lies in the extreme foreground, in company with the spectator, with the wounds carefully bleeding; and there is the class in which Ge rdme’s peculiar enamelled woman stands “beau tiful for ever” on her rostrum, thrown at the beholder in the same raw way. I have my opinion, in common with the world of the ex ternal public, of the didactic quality of these representations, while still preserving the dis ciple’s enthusiasm for the mysterious ability with which they are executed. The mercantile freshness and “condition” of all that reeking butcher’s meat; the insulted nakedness of that perpetual woman, who is never innocently nude or unconscious* of raiment, but al ways stripped exceptionally, whether she be the Almeli, or the Cairene slave, or the Queen of Lydia, or Cleopatra emerging from the roll, or Phryne unveiled by Hyperides—this active killing and skinning for the sensation market is, I believe, very coolly estimated' among the co citizens of the painter, who is husband to the daughter of a great picture-merchant, while the bullet of another woman’s jealous husband re maining in his arm attests the sincerity of his experiments in both of his principal genres. I touch upon these patent or notorious facts as lightly as possible, and confine my attention to the masterly, orderly narrative-power of Gerome—a power, I think, akin to that of the ablest dramatist or sonnetteer, or whatever writer makes his business the expressing of himself fully and neatly within liis limitations. Has figure-painting ever been so skilfully welded upon architecture-painting, since the' day of - Veronese, as in the “Death of Ciesar? ” Have figures and architecture, treated witli a sense of landscape, ever met so gracefully as in the “Gladiators'.”’ Is there another such stylist living? In adjacent rooms, Cabanel teaches quality and: Gerome style.' The pupils have perse veringly opened peep-holes in the partition be tween the two, ateliers, though I believe not SO; much with views of exchanging and catholiciz ing the propagandism as from certain inferior motives. When a model of Cabanel’s is doing up her hair, there is always a benevolent watcher on our side ready to spread the glad news and allow’ the Gerdmanists to con the lesson. Through these crevices' we can, if we choose, get the benefits of instruction from the neighboring professor. Cabanel, who could have learned from Gerome a better disposition of the leading lines in liis “Paradise Lost,” w'bieli has been compared to a sprawling panel of paper-hangings, teaches splendor and tex ture; Gerome, who could never have painted the fingers of Cabanel’s faun sinking into the white side of the nymph, ex plains temperance in anatomy with admirable insight and system. The pupils, unknown to the official oversight, have opened out a community of schools. There, is even the means of personal and bodily communica tion. itfo rule is more strict than that which forbids the inmates of one atelier to visit the interior of another. Yet, by means of certain elevated and unnoticed windows in the dress ing-rooins, .a transit can be effected by persons of a daring and gymnastic turn. The first time I was au'are of this was one morning when I happened to be working in view of the lofty casement of our little vestry, which aper ture was suddenlylfilled by a living figure ; it was the apparition of a singularly handsome young man, who chose for his visiting-costume the uniform in which Adam is supposed to have done his horticulture. This figure descended like a Mercury,, came into broader light among us, smoked a cigarette with* one of our fellows, had a good chat, and vanished like a moonbeam at some alarm in the corridor. It was a favorite young model. ' The openings aforesaid make us privy to any interesting noises that may,be going on in the atelier Cab anel. There are fights,in which we sometimes mix, descending like martial gods from the - empyrean;.,there is, besides, a wonderful bari tone, a church chorister, among the acolytes of the painter of Venuses; when he sings, our room is hushed as death. Once this lyric creatine was good enough to visit us, with , a - tram of singing-boys. It was odd to see them drop one by one from the high window, each preserving with the utmost care a lighted match. With these held out tor tapers, they then; ‘ made a procession among our company, softly singing a beautiful mass. Alas! they had miscalculated, and the anthem came near ending purgatorially, They. had not remembered the day, and Gerome entered just as they were passing afound the external circle of our pupils. Nothing, fortunately, came of it. The lights were cleverly dropped, the visitors transformed themselves into atten tive pupils glued to hasty pieces of work, and then, while Gerome was attending to the inner group of pupils with his peculiar absorbed en ergy, our choir managed to pass around one by one into the dressing-room and soar like silent spirits out at the window. It was the only time the pupils of qualitc ventured to attend at the renseifjnements du style. Certainly, these are not quite the most ordi nary sights in life. Apollo in the zenith, gath ering liis neat limbs for a spring; or a file of spectral choristers, startling as the ghosts of the wicked turns in “Robert,” coming down threaded and lighted from the ceiling, and vo ciferating Mozart as they drop—these obviously are not conventional, but they are not yery striking in the atelier. They are quite within its atmosphere, and do not perturb the quiet diurnal order there. The better conditioned of the students have attained a Buddliistical tranquillity and absence of nerves, and will sit cross-legged oh a color-box, in front of the pile off joss-paper on which is delineated tliesacred ideal, through all the uproar of mundane revo lutions. It is a school where no one need-ijhy temptto study who cannot concentrate him self uponhiS'task while the- company around shall be fighting, disputing, engaging in games of skill, or perhaps throwing the whole force, of its lungs into, an abominable .cat’s-! chorus. In the,'midst of Pandemonium the harmonious structure of his art must rise like an exhalation. The true events of school ■' life are the schooling and the advance; not the de scribable things, not the holidays and junket ings, not the diversions and recreations I have attempted to portray. What is really the week’s affair to the Beaux-Arts man is his “academy.£’ On Monday he hits the pose, which .is always vigorously pronounced and spiritedvonthemodel’s partjwhenfirstassurned;' the dash that may be thrown into the attitude wfaile'the figure' is perfectly fresh can never be caught , up again if missed at the beginning. By Tuesday the artist lias become.absorbed in the complications of light and shade. On iWed nesday the master comes, and perhaps rejects nearly everything that lias fiben done, disfigur ing and blotting tliesketcli from one margin to the other.. The,model,rirooping upon liis dais, may bear little resemblance to the elastic atti tude of the drawing, and the student is accused of attempting to,hletdize. “You have been try ing to modify nature from your reminiscences of the antique; you have ennobled the head, . braced the shoulders,” etc. The study is al tered in the spirit of realism, until all the stark and pitiful ugliness of the model’s lassi tude is expressed. One of the difficulties of a , life “academy” is that, although the example btfore ypufea movhjKy changing object, how a little to) the right arid‘now-a little 1 to'theleft, your copy' of it k fexpepfed to^ds>w , 'fdl' the'piirismof tlie photograph. If you were putting' the same model into a historical picture, you would be expected to elevate - the attitude .And expression; ' and you would '■ then begin to hear from your critics a great deal about the -difficulty and responsibility of bor rowing from nature, what to take and what to , leave. “Only Phidias _ and Da Vinci,” I have heard declared, <,‘and. perhaps Michael Angelo, deserved to have received the revelations of anatomy.”-’lf; 'on-'the other hand, you were copying the antique, you would have the full luxury of rffining your line ' and . your form, with no limitation -of time and with ,a: rigid model. The life “academy,” then, .is ex pected to avoid the imaginative qualities of picture, and to. win, from a constantly deterior ating example, .the accuracy: which is so fasci nating. a :quest in copyingfiom -statuary.- A felicitous study is therefore a very desirable treasure, and old forgotten ones by. Couture or. Flandrin are preserved in the , ateliers where those painters have studied, used as paradigms by teachers, or sold as something of unique value in the color-stores. Another trouble is the variation in. the color of the air on different days. “ The patron has accused mo,” an energetically protesting youth will cry, “ of seeking the silver tint of Tcrburg; it was as far, from mythoughts as silver from my pocket. : But I established my key of color on Thursday, when there was a solid gray rain Like-slate-pencils; and the Italian tinned blue and chattered; and how will you expect the tones of Titian in such a;climate, rites freresl”, On the closing day of the week I have known an ’ incorrigibly gay ‘ lad to exhibit a canvas almost, completely expunged by the blottings of the professor. “Tliis w,as to have Iteen my masterpiece. I meant it for the altar of the church where I was baptized, whether as a St. Michael or a John in the. Wilderness. The outline was good until Auguste changed it into a caricature of the Prince Imperial. Then Sarat must needs e’mploy my poor ‘aca demy’ as a shield in his redoubtable duel; the sword went through in such a way that mv poor figure is dceoUetee. Butthat is "not the worse; the canvas became loosened, and vibrated to my touch as I worked. Sliall I tell yon what is bad for the eyesight ? It is when a figure trembles in the stretcher like a spider in the middle of her wheel, and the eye is forced to dart in and out to catch it like the eye of a snail. Then iny picture was cemented to Eugene’s as they were cleaning the room— and you know liow much the ! artist gains by contact with Eugene.’ Here Eugene, take back the obligation!” And the picture was broken over the head of the young man, abundantly unctuating his hair and filially resting on his shoulders. The daily routine ,is as humdrum as any course of study in the world, and the jokes of the Latin Quartier, very striking at first, soon manifest their character of old traditional Joe Millers, repeated time and again. French wit seems, to an American, wanting in audacity, invention and flexibility. A circle of Yankee hoj’s will make a far greater number of incon gruities spring up from the occasion than can their more polished Gallic contemporaries. The toilsome days wear on, relieved by the al leviations of use and wont, and finding! their best comfort in the culture and improvement they have brought. One day, however, we had a genuine sensation. It was after hours, and the great room was only sparsely occupied by' those frugal youths who have a habit of using it in the afternoons instead of a private atelier, and by a few boys whom the professor had set to copying casts. The Industrious Ap prentice had left, and Tom Idle reigned su preme. It may be cohfessed,'however; that the raff remaining in the afternoons is the most companionable and amusing; and I often stay for a little study of character. These idlers are the buffoons of the class ; they are the ones who receive the comic nicknames; they are the obliging souls who will give : you lessons with the foils or in the French wrest ling latte. They are the; worst dressed, the most imperfectly purified, the handsomest, the most agreeable rascals of the whole crowd, A bare half-dozen of tliis sort of objects, in as many picturesque eccentricities of costume, were gathered ■ around the Lapin, who had cocked over :liis long nose a sailor’s crimson -bonnet, and.whom the rest were burlesquing, teasing and copying; the cocked-hat from out side the door suddenly,entered, followed by its owner, who was cringing, : bowing -and posk tively blushing at the rarest chance that had . probably illuminated his life up to the date. The Empress ! ’ Eugenie entered rapidly, r sniiling and ejaculating, with the air of a woman charmed to be doing something sly and uncommon. The Emperor was examining another part of the building, and did not visit the painting ateliers. : A stout gentleman, plainly dressed and of the easiest possible maimers, waited on his imperial mistress, and received her frequent sallies and jokes. A pretty boy, who sat in front of the Lapin, with his hack to the door, had not observed the sudden invasion. Before he knew what was happening a little blue-gloved hand had touched the doivn on his chin, and a - kind question about his work had the effect of frightening him nearly speechless. It was a room never entered by an honest woman, and a youth who had almost never conversed with a lady. “Why, you see, la dame, the Lapin brought a red nightcap, and I thought there would be no harm— : —” His awkwardness provoked a pretty, ringing laugh. The stout gentleman then laughed in basso,and our boys in various broken falsettoes, according to their age. The EmpresS gave an amused glance at the caricatures with which the wall was tapestried, and in a minute her graceful figure and delicate face were gone again. One of the immortals had appeared, and alone.— Nation. —The Randolph (Missouri) Citizen says that a man with three revolvers strapped around him, and exactly answering the description of the noted Sam/Hildebrand, passed through Huntsville a few days since. He said he was Soing tO Shelbina, and the editor let him 1 go. te did not try to arrest Hildebrand, he says, because he was “ not fond of that sort of fun; besides, $lO,OOO was too insignificant a sum to induce an editor to neglect his business.” EXCURSIONS.

London** July 22. —1 n the House of Lords to-night there was a full attendance, and many members of the House of Commons were present.; - _ . j / , The consideration of the amendments to the Irish Chureli bill was resumed. Earl Granville opened the debate by stating that her Majesty’s Ministers regarded the vote of Tuesday night as one of: very grave charac ter, but they were unwilling ;to . prevent the consideration of the other amendments to the bill, and were anxious to conduct the discus sion in a spirit of peace and conciliation. . He proposed the reservation of the original date of disestablishment, namely, January 1, 1871, but shptdd not insist on a revision, and if the mo tion was contrary to the feelings of the House he would withdraw it. \ Lord Cairns said that since the adjournment he had had a conference with Earl Granville, lie (Lord Cairns) thought the amend ments remaining few and capable of He was glad to find Earl Granville Was actuated by a similar spirit. Nothing could be more culpable on either‘side than to encourage or protract a controversy ok a measure of this khid where the materials for a solution were at hand. ■ With that view and that sentiment everything that took place, .at the conference accorded. He argued that the question of date was of secondary importance,and declared that lie was ready to accept the original date. He ad vised the Lords not to insist oh residences or commutation of ahnuities. If three-fourths of a diocese were, willing to, commute, they would have twelve‘instead of Seven per cent, added. The question with respect to , the disposition of the surplus might be left over, but power should be.given to Parliament to apply a portion, of the; fund to-tlie alleviation of unavoidable calamity. He concluded by admitting tliat • lie still had strong.objections' to tlie' bill,, hut, if it was vto - pass at oil, it was not- for the interest of: the cormtry dr . the .Chureli to prolong the struggle, on minor debates.' The Marquis of Salisbury, Earl Russell, and 'Other leading peers accepted the compromise nnirl pinispil tlie conrliicf. of Thrd Cairns'in t.lin present emergency. ' ; ; Tlie motion for the restoration of the original date of disestablishment was agreed to, and the other amendments' were disposed of accord-; ing to the. terms of compromise. Clause"' 08. was altered sd that Udne of tlie surplus shall he' applied without the separate apd distinct saner, tioit of Parliament. - V , Earl,Brandon and tlie Bishop of Tuatn, pro tested against the .compromise.

The Board of Examiners will therefore recommend to the Secretary of the Treasury a modification of the plans, a reduction ih the machinery, as well as in the general details, so as to bring the expense within the appropriation. It was the desire of Secretary Boutwell, in asking for proposals, to obtain the most elaborate plans from first-class builders throughout the country, but he did hot expect the bids would run quite.as high as the figures show. Until the recommendation of the Revenue Board Is acted on there can be no award. . . Accumulations of tbe., London 800 f a.... stores,;. The accumulation of treasures of every species in England is a never-failing source of, wonder. There is scarcely-a, day which passes away without" bringing ih the columns of the Times intimation of the dispersal by auc tion of rare, original and valuable treasures of literature, art, science, or mere curiosity or luxury. When Dr. Libri was accused of abusing bis position to purloin valuable manu scripts or works from the great French libraries, he defended himself by collecting in the second hand bookshops here the rarest works and manuscripts' which had once belonged, and were supposed still to be, in the most celebrated . continental libraries, and be re newed thismarifel,a Second time.' I believe a person might safely accept a wager to find in the second-hand book shops herb almost any book, even though the hardship of the wager were increased by the'stipulation that the book should bear the printed mark of any given Continental Itbrary. The literary, wealth, of these shops is amazing. There is nothing in the world elsewhere like it. “L'never survey it without regretting the haste of all American travelers to hie to Paris, when so much sub stantial information, so many valuable books, so many treasures of every description are to be picked up here. — Cor. Childs' PublMier's Circular. : CreasoteiwFntl. The London DtiUjf Ncma says: “For a long tune past creosote lias almost been a drug in the, market, the demand for it for the chief pur pose to which it l»ad been previously applied, viz.: as a preservative of timber, having almost ceased with the completion of the. great rail ways, and'the depression in the'railway in terest which has of late years prevented the further development of that branch of com mercial. enterprise. The gas companies have been-glad to get rid of it on any terms, and that which had for some years .been a valuable re fuse of gas manufacture became almost worth less, Its application for heating purposes, for which it seems admirably adapted, will, how ever, probably restore the equilibrium of value which the causes referred to have temporarily disturbed, and at the same time /introduce a fuel which,where a very, extreme temperature is required, promises largely to supersede_ the use of coal. At .Mr. Schwartz’s sugar-refinery on Pelham street, Spitalfields, more than one thousand gallons of creosote oil are daily con sumed in heating his two furnaces, which are of one lumdredand forty horse power, and he speaks of it as a most successful experiment. According to his calculation, two hundred and tSveiity gallons of oil—the cost of which is one penny a gallon—equal in heating power to two and a half tons of coal, and one pound of oil, will evaporate thirteen pounds of ' water, whereas one pound of coal Will evaporate only seven pomnds of water.
