of the poets, , will'be noticed throughout. The
hymns are arranged chronologically, beginning
with a Haiinorly of the Gospel, by Otfried, of t
the ninth century.' The - earliest- psalmists, be 7
longing to the ruder stages of the unformed
German tongue, succestately appear, until the
symphony is swelled by- the manly ; i:Oiee of.
Luther and by the payclmlog,ico refinements of
Tauler, Gotfried Arnold, and Zinzindorf. The
historical setting in which 'these gems of

The lady who sometime since gave us such a
vivid, observant account of life on the great
plains, inAbsaraka, tho Home of the Crows,"
bas arranged a little handbook for ti•avelers, in
which compact form are .giveri the fares, dis
tances, stations, and heights of the principal

information and useful hints not to be found.
in any Railway Guide, and is a welcome anti
cipation of more elaborate and Cumber Some

larbi valuable by a new ,maii r with the track of
the 'Union Railroad, including the spaae be
tween Omaha and Salt Lake City, prepared hy
Col. 'Carrington, who has seen years oiservice
on the Plains. The Guide, which is called
"Ocean to Ocean," is a slim pocket-volume, in
flexible covers.
The letters of A. K. McClure about the
Great West, which, in 1867,. made a • sensation
at Chambersburg, in the Franklin ReAsitory,
and those others well liked by the readers of the
Trthane, have been put together Without much
revision in a volume entitled "Three thousand
miles through the. Rocky Mountains." As
serving to kindle interest in those stupendous
highways of travekin advance of more scien
tific and competent investigations,Mr..McClure's
lively sketches, filled with ephemeral anecdotes
and personal experience, are very *readable.
The author says, with a graceful modesty,
"To hasten the events that will cause these
letters to be forgatten, is their mission." Such
scenes, soon to be tamed by the railway into
ordinary travel-routes, furnish to a narrative
a wild excitement that they are even now
osing by daily degrees. The book forms a
good-looking, largish duodecimo, on cream
colored paper, neatly bound.
"Daisy." Continued from "Melbourne
Rouse." 'The author of "The ' Wide, Wide
World" goes on with her task of delineating
the War from the Ellen Montgomery point of
view. The present instalment begins with the
imperilment of Washington, in the early days
of the rebellion; and closes just after the little
nervous, transparent-bodied, pions heroine has
nursed her lover Thorold into the next world
from the mattress of a hospital. She then re
tires to a life of good works, and the' story ap
parently closes. But it is impossible to say at
what moment Miss Warner may not cut hi
again, and send her lachrymose missionary
through another course of adventures.
"Mizpah, or, Friends at Prayer," by Lafayette

which it' s filled is written in many cases by
persons familiar as poetic amateurs to the so

11. Hartshorne, Pliny Earle, Edwin 11. Nevin,
Miss 11. Lloyd, Miss Osgood, and others, who
- mingle their metrical offerings with those of
Michael , Angelo, "St: Stephen," the Monk of
Cluny',and intermediate British writers. A
selection made upon such wide principles ought•
to contain something for everybody; many
poems not often met with are saved up in the
present little faggot, and.we think it deserves
the same sort of popularity that "The Wheat
Sheaf" had a few years ago. We regret that a
little care and consultation were not bad, by
which the troublesome "Anonymous," at the
end of many of the selections, might have been
replaced by the author's name.

"Improved Modern Pocket Dictionary of the
French and English Languages. For the Ev
eryday Purposes of Travelers and Students,
etc." By Ferdinand E. A. GaSe New Edi
tion. . So, long.tigO a 8 the'first, of May, we :al
luded, with a feeling of recognition, and almost
of gratitude, to the service Messrs. Lippincott
had done us and others in preparing . new
edition of this useful little lexicon: It is an
excellent abridgment, containing more of the
modern and half-slang meanings of words (sO
necessary to the conversationalist), than the
larger work of Spiers and Surenne, while it
avoids the cumbersome . list of Scotch terms,
with which the English portion of Smith's
Pocket Dictionary is weighted. We 'find in
this little handy-Vohune such niceties as the
secondary meaning of dormense, ear-ring; belle,
the decisive hit in foil-practice; and explanations
of such idioms as "nom d'un Chien'; "cela.lui
pend an nez"; "exiger se faire tirer l'oreille" (to
require pressing), etc. The plan of Gasp is .
excellent for its omissions; it rejects English
words for which there is no French equivalent;
verbal adjectives which follow the sense ,of the
verb; words from the dead languages of which .
there is a good dUplicate in French or English,
and, pronunciation, little, more than a farce in a
French dictionary. It is r however, unfortunate
that the capital E s in the font of type employed
by Messrs. Lippincott are not furnished with
accents, enforcing the omission of that feature
on many of the initial letters of words in this
dictionary. For its general merits, we consider
that Gasc's ought to ' supersede all the other
pock'et or handy Dictionaries of French and
English known to us. ,
ONE OF SEVEN SITTINGS WITH POW
ERS, THE SCULPTOR.
BY HENRY W. BELLOWS, IN APPLETON'S
JOURNAL
I asked Mr. Powers to-day how important he
thought it for an American artist to come
abroad-to pursue his _vocation.,
A painter, he said, especially a landscape,
-painter,-may,-without-serious-disadvantage,--re---
main at home, especially if he lacks' power to
resist the influence of foreign art, to enslave
his own independence, and to injure the
national tone - and coloring of his Works: Eyery
country has its own landseape—France, Ger
manyltalyrlth.ve their-characteristic-forms and --
Lcolors, America has its own, and it is. im
portant that the - American artist :should not
bring Italian skies, trees, foliage, into Aineri
can Scenes. California, I am told, has some-
thinn: of . the same rosy Skies and the same bare
-outline so common_here; but,- generally speak
int, American landscape is. very unlike ahy
thing on this continent, and, apart from the
advantage of studying the best foreign masters,
which to those who know how . to use such
teachers is invaluable, an American artist is
likely to lose his characteristic 'American tone
and expression by too long a familiarity with
foreign schools.
But sculpture is universal. The human form
is of no country, and may be studied with equal
advantage at home and abroad. The opportu
nities of studying it abroad are so immeasurably
greater than at home that I do not see how it
is possible, without great less, to neglect them.
1. It is impossible to model Successfully with
out living models; and in America, in my time,
it Nias almost at the peril of reputation, both
for model and sculptor, that an artist employed
the 'living model, even if he could procure it.
Now, I undersnunl, a few models may be ob
tained in New York; but they, are so rare and
-so expensive, that it is almost ruinous to em
ploy them. It costs two or three dollaiS there
to secure a modelwhich here may be had for
forty cents. There is no want of models here;
bnt their history is a sad one, and makes one
' often seriously lament the necessity for em
ploying them. Young women, especially, are
driven to this employmeut_hy _the want of
bread. I have numerous oilers of their services
made by parents who are, in great distress. I'
make it a point to discourage all who come to
me from (interim: the business, and am only
conquered when 1 feel sure that, if I:decline,
they will be driven to other studios. , prefer
only professional models, already;thdroughly
committed to the calling, as I shrink from the,
responsibility of leading any into so perlions a: -
vocation. They are usually. 'accompanied by
their mothers, and I Stritereat,thent In:a
way to save their self4espect anildelicacy—a
very hard task, which too often breaks down in
less'sernpulons hands. . '
2. The opportunities of anatomical studies
are here nearly perfect, and free froM- ex,'
pease. The medical schools not . only illustrate
anatomy by surgery on the cadaver, but,- stand
ing by the side of the dead body; is a living one,
in which the action of • the muscles dissected'
before' the . student limy be,, studied . in, life.
These colleges are open to All artists, and fur
nish the best possible schooling hi anatomy,a
. thorough acquaintance with which is indispen
. sable.to the sculptor, and can only be obtained
• in America at great cost.
3. 'Marble is no cheaper here than in-New
York; the long sea-carriage costing no more to
America than the short land-carriage does from
the qnarries to Florence or Rothe: .But good
worknien, who cannot be dispensed With, are
so abundant and so cheap here; So rare and so
dear at home, that that alone is a decisive rca

not, for my eitensive accomModations, be less
• than two thousand five hundred dollars-a , -year-

visit—reaches only about four hundred and
fifty dollars annually. - ,
Ent, 4. The general, expenses of Maintaining
a family are so much less here thin-at home,
that a man without capital, possessin a pro
- fession so slow in reaching ' its pecuniary re
turns as an artist's, finds'an'' Immense induce
ment to live abroad.. It is true that, music,
accomplishment in languages apart, the oppidr
tunities of a substantial education for one's
children are not as good here as at home.
There are, however, less t temptations to vice,
and less exposures to , the American habit of
hard drinking among young men ;' but, no
doubt, the general influences here, in the way
of developing a manly, energetic, and self-re
lying character, are less favorable ;than at
home. There is a softness,. a disposition to
take life easy, and a want of moral earnestness
in Italy, which are not favorable to youthful
ambition and independence. "On the other
hand, the money-getting propensities and
social rivalries of America tend to , harden
human character, and to bring out a severe
selfishness which is offensive. , On' the wholei
the balance is on our side,. and, other things
apart, American youth are better brought,up in
America. But the artist must make this sacri
fice to his art.
It is not painters alone, however, added Mr.
Powers, who are m danger Of losing' - their in-
Most sculpterS lose theirs, both
at home and airoad; and many,..on.,the • other
hand, keep their individuality-to the point of
mannerism, and the obtrusion and stamp of
their private personality upon all they 'do.
They do not hide theintelves behind their
works and their tools. • Even Darmecker ' so
able and successfid an artist, has given the
leopard in his Ariadne the expression of a Ger
man. Canova made his own face the model
of all the faces he made. In his Washington,
beneath the monument, at Baltimore, you see
Canova himself. In his colossal head . of Na
poleon, here, still Canova. 'lle has even made
his Waking Lion look like 'himself.- I could
tell a statue of Canova if I onik saw the back
of the • bead. Fuseli, who admired
Michael 'Angelo so enthusiastically, said
of Canova, "An smasculated• Greek; sir."
His Venus is really, in all that; 'is best in tt,"a
copy from the Venus de Medici. In his fa
tuous statue of Pauline, there Is not a trace of
Nature, and, you feel sure : not a line of sem
blance to the original, except perhaps in the
face; It is very doubtful if the princess 'ever
sat for the model of the figure (so that the old
stery—that she replied to some one, if she did
not feel uncomfortable in exposing her person,
"Oh, no; the room was perfectly warm"—can
hardly be true). Canova ,studied 'the' Greek
statuary, and not the living model. .lle at
tempted to refine on their forms, and merely
weakened their effect. His Perseus is a study
from the Apollo, and has precisely its posture
in the lower limbs; only he bolas out a head in
his hands. There is somethin4 feeble and sen
timental in all his works. •
I recurred to the period when Mr. Powers
was making the busts of our statesnien at
Washington. '
When John C. Calhoun was sitting to me, I
knew very well that he and Jackson hated
each other; but I Ventured to ask him, one
day, if he believed that the President had ac
twiny written a very able message which had
appeared over his signature; "Every line of
it, sir," he said, "was his inspiration, and con
tains his senthnents. It may have been put
into its literarYTOrm by a secretary. But no
body understands AMerican politics better
than General Jackson. He has an iron mem
ory, and has his .own opinions on all American
subjects."
The subject of phrenological indications came
- tqf Mr: - Powers - said - : - I do not know-how-far
the science may he true, but there are certainly
very v striking coincidences - betVW.v n many
craniological signs and the character of those
who bear them. Take the great devolopMent

upon the latent thoughts and feelings of his
audience, and seemed to mould theme nly be- -

brow. Mr. Calhoun, who understOod the
Southern heart completely, was of great per
ceptive faculty, and it was stamped on his fore
head, but, unhappily, he kept his fingers on the
Southern pulse only, and failed to feel .the
Northern wrist, and so he lost the benefit of
his insight. • Mr. Webster had no marked de
velopment of the perceptive faculties..llis
general reason prevailed, over his special in
sight or close national sympathy with the
popular will. lie was absorbed by his argu
ment and wrapped up in principles. lie Spoke

of American will. ' Everett, who was equally ,
deficient in this special craniological indication,
could not' carry the sympathies of the common
people, whom he did :not instinctively under
stand. lle won admiration and respect, but
not leadership.
Mr. Calhoun said: "Jackson was a -great
actor. The people thought him bluff, out.-
spoken. frank, mid impulsive, and liked 'him
,for those qualities. But he often assumed
anger, when he was calm as a clock, for effect.
Especially. when he thought himself right, but

frightened his antagonists by the vehemence
and , violence of afflicted passion. When he

twenty years of city existence, they and their
sons learn that there are other countries where
there is abundance of room and grand rewardS

"The French have a witty proverb, 'Si jot

"There isttstory - told of a Sheffield woman,
forty years old,who was found penniless in sonic
West Country State. • They asked her what
she had - doner - or -could do - for living: She
could answer only Pack files. She had been
packing files in Sheffield for twenty-five years,
since she had been a girl of . fifteen; and some
ill-wind had forced her to emigrate to regions
where nobody wanted files packed. If, at the
beginning, she had been sent to America, she
would have planted herself as afarnier's wife,
and have grown up possibly to wealth; as it
was, she remained, until, it was too hite, in a
Country overcrowded with human labor, where
the competition was growing fiercer every day.
The worst of the matter is, that the evil and
the knowledge of the remedy are most obvious
at the end where the remedy is least appli

of view, would be that of strong, healthy rus
tics,.
who, with no loss to us, would carry their
unsilled labor into lands where it might find
its reward; but,, unfortunately, our emigrants
from England are in great part intelligent mid
'.dle7aged artisans, pushed from ; their stools,
beaten here in the battle of life, and not very
able to begin a new canipaign. Luckily for
the Irish; their case is different. There the
emigration has caught hold of the right classes.
The agricultural laborers have gone by millions
to a land where industry can always avoid
starvation; 'and the second condition of the
Irish emigrant has been so very good because
his first was so intolerably: bad." •

All the Democratic candidates for the Legisla

THE Department of State has been informed
that the Congress , of Venezuela has decreed an
additioVal duty of 20 per cent. on the ordinary
import duties of the tariff of, 1867, actually in
force, to be paid in cash on all goods imported.
from. the 30th of April. , Goeds specified in con
\ sular certified invoices previous to that date
\ will not pay the additional' duty. An act of
the.same Congress, dated May 15, 1860, de
clares that all' export, duties shall be abolished
mid cease to be collected from the Ist of July,
1869. By the authority of Congress, the Execu
tive of Venezuela has exempted flour from the
20 per tent. additional duty on imports imposed .
by the decrees above mentioned.

supposed they had all been taken prisoners by
the Painguayans, but tiley have since returned

in the State in criminal cases. No bill became:
a law over the veto.
The-power exercised by the Governor' net
only defeated the'partieular bills; but prevented
hundreds of a similar character from being
passed. The resolutionin the Republican - 00- .
form endorsing the Governor `tor restraining
the evils of iiPecial'.ledialation was . "61t4ed itpon
these vetoes. Among,other reasons, given: for.
not approving a certain supplement, the Gover
nor declared that anpriginal bill (to which the
supplement was desired) had not become a laW,
and on inquiry, the Legislature found this 'to
be the case. :Another • was vetoed be

Was so carelessly drawn

was concerned,. bills were passed without any

The monthly ,: report of the Department of
'Agriculture for July has Just been printed at

minor items from various , sources, compiled by
.1.• R. Dodge, Esq., the statistician of the de
partment. Not .Yithslanding the heavy rains
and the low tempemtiu-e, the reports concern
ing the wheat crop are generally frivorable,Ken
wily, West Virginia and Virginia producing
the best avergetrop, while in Wisconsin and
several of the Northwestern States the crop is
considerably' below the average, The prospects
for the corn crop on the first of July were fully
up .to the general average. The same can he
said of the rye crop., 14 this crop Delaware and
Nebraska stand foremost. The oat crop is re
ported fine, especially in Florida,Texas,Kankas,
and Nebraska, which produce twenty. per cent.
above the average yield, while in all except ,
Kentucky the 'crop is reported' as an. average
one. The other eropS'aft' look faforahle, es
pecially potatoes, which promise an abundant
yield: The fruit crop is a. little below the
average in New England; and New York and
the Southern States, and above the average in
the Middle and Most of the Wester' : States.
