NWT ITEM .
—Tbe queition whether copiett ate of
use in. a provincial museum .1 is iline often
bandied, and the obvious answer is,: that every
thing depends on the quality. of .:!the cbpy.
- Nobody would deny that'Blgalon's .great study
of the Sistine Last Jtidginentli of 'use to the.
Nicole des Beaux-Arts, Paris, which ordered it.
Nobody, inspecting the copy of one of Rem
brandt's self-portraits, now at Earles' Galleries,
eOuld 'doubt that repetitions of this: grade
are . excellent nieans of giving outsiders
ConceptlOb fif,:the ; The study is
made with positively virile force, and has a
great deal of the golden-gloom of Rembrandt.:
An interesting , original. work is expesetl , near
by, which no one would attribute to' the same
Band,. though such is . the case. It :is: a: Mar
guerite, a half-length figure the size of life.
The : beginnings of a strong originality and high
poetic taste are evident in this delicate and life
4e. figure. Behind, in shadow, leans the
Ntropter. Marguerite,, disrobing, holds a mirror
ith6entlY, her 'adolescent form s'i r iceusaizt , be-
Leath the* tunic, while "her rich' attire creeps
ilistling to her knees." The triviality of an
elaborate fly on the mirror—which only sug
btsts 111 r. Every body's fruit-pieces and bijou
terie—would have been steered clear of by a
More experienced artist, but it is a piece of
girlish love of detail, too, and almost sup gists
the butterfly on a Psyche.- The painter of the
Rembrandt copy and of the Marguerite is Miss
Anna M. Lee, a Philadelphia art-student now
u Germany.
--A
meeting of the New Tork Museum of
Art Association was held at the. Century Club,
New 'York, on the evening of the Pith, Ex
foiernor Morgan presiding. Two tickets for
officers were presented, when a committee was
appointed to draw up a third ticket, which
presented the name of John Taylor Johnson
for president. Nothing can be done until the
net meeting; to be held on the 31st inst.

TUE GERMAN TOY INDUSTRY.
The correspondent of the New:York Evening
Post says
Dr. Kohl, of Bremen, whose name ,is well
knoith to Americans, says :—" A merchant of
Nuremberg presented me with a really remark
able document—a catalogue of all kinds of
children's toys in which his house dealt.. This
catalogue was the most complicated list of
wares that I have seen. It includes more than
12,00 articleS. Every species of wild and
domestic animal, horses, cattle slieep, had its
own number; every race of men, every
nationality, every army, every species of
arms, soldiers on foot and to horse, the ar
tillerist, the lancer, hussar,. the Bavarian,
Austrian and Prussian soldier, were all cata
logtted. Each of these thousands and thou-
Sand's of artieles had there its price; in more
or leaS costly material, in larger or smaller
form. •By every number there was a short
Atscription,of the article ; everything was so
arranged that the foreign toy dealer had only
to mention the number in the catalogue to
the wholesale dealer in Nuremberg to procure
• just the article that he wanted.. There , are
houses making a profit of five to six thousand
guldens yearly in children's KJ:tick-Knacks,
Noah's arks, &c. These dealers need, how
ever; great discretion and „ jinlginent. The
most of these wares come from Sonneberg, in
the Thuringian Forest, and many from the
"Erzgebirge." •
The cheapness of the Sonneberg toys is
something incredible ; 1,000 slate-peneils cost
there only from 12 to IS silVer groschens (27
to 43 cents), and 360 unpainted children's
trumpets 25 Sillier groschens (60 cents). This
cheapness would not be possible without the
minutest division of labor, the first workman
merely preparing the piece of , wood, the next
giving it the rough form, and the next com
pleting it. The packers are again a class of
people to themselves ; they can pack a Noah's
ark with the greatest skill in a relatively small
boi ; in such a space, indeed, that it is diffi
cult for any one to put the animals again into
their home' when once out. •
• The worluwen soon acquire an almOst tabu
' 'lons skill rand, rapidity, otherwise the cheap
• prices would•not be possible. Besides, every
member of the family, men, women and chil
dr,en, must aid. •• Though the work of each
family may appear small, the production of the
Whole district is very large. There are in Son
neberg twenty-six wholesale toy-dealers; and
single firms of these have a yearly business of
over half a million thalers! The traveling
agents of Sonneberg toy-firms carry with them
a book of samples specifying 16,009 different
articles. An enormous amount of• wood is
consumed. The Meiningeu forests furnish
5,000 cords of pine wood, at 100 cubic feet per
-cord .yearly. .or.. the, .making.of
. 4,080
dozens of little wooden post-horns only
126 cubic feet of wood are required, and this '
may allow of an inference as to the immense
number of toys sent out every year into the
- Of late years there :has been a greater
demand for articles of taste, and it became ne
cessary for the Sohneberg people to see after
improving their standard. The Oberland Art
andlrade Union, as well as the hereditary
prince,• therefore, lend the . manufacturers
modeoys; and the government has estab
lished two institutes
„for' giving instruction in
irawing and modeling to the children of poor
parents, who have talent and desire to devote
themselves to the plastic arts. The lessening
of the forests and the increasing competition
of other cities have of late years compelled the
introduction of wood-working Machinery in
stead of the ancient handwork. By the old
methods only the best parts of the tree could
lie used up, but the machinery uses up nearly
every twig.
LITER RI.
The London Athena - u) appeared on the Ist
of January under new a pices, Mr. Hepworth
Dixon having been su ceded in the editorial
chair by Dr. Doran. "be body of the paper
is printed in larger type than heretofore, and
the leading columns are henceforward to be
riven up to literary essays, in place of the
elaborate review that has always appeared in
them. The nickname given to this journal by
Lord Lytton, of Assinevm, may cease to be
apt' under' the new regime, but such soubri=
quets like Thackeray's Supedlne Reeiew, baye
a tendency to endure.
We receive Childs's Publishers' Circular for
January 15th,with the usual entertaining news
of literature and foreign letters. According to this.
periedieal the-total number of new books and
new editions issued during the year 1809 was
4,500. This represents the growth of the Library
of the British Museum by act of Parliament,
exclusive of purchases and bequests, each pub
lisher being required to deposit a copy of every
new hook and new edition issued from his
house m that library befere copyright will be
awarded hint. Or the 1,500, theology claims

the rest there are 500 works for ,children, 28S
hooks of travel, 202 biographies Or. histories,
JtiO medical treatises, 142 laiv hooks, and 2'74
works under the class of "poetry and drama."
It Is curious as illitstrating the connection be
tween reading and the tirCsi4 that the num
ber of hooks published increased from 249 in
September to 522 in October, 1111 in Novem

years to run, payable in gold. Secured by the railroad,
branches, depot grounds, rolling stock, equipment and
franchises of the company. •
These bonds are only issued upon each section of the
road Rifest as the same is completed and in successful
operation. Two and a half millions of dollars have been
expended on this road. Eighty-three miles! arc nearly
completed and equipped, and already show largo earn
ings, and the remainder of the line is rapidly progressing
in construction.
This Loan has been selected by our firm after a thor
' ongh and careful investigation, consequently we have
no hesitation in recommending it to our friends as a
perfectly safe, profitable and iirst•clase security. Our
opinion is fully confirmed by the following strong letter
from the experienced and eminently successful ma
of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company :
' PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD COMPANY.
PREIIDENT '8 OVFICE.
PHILADELPHIA, Slay 114:1.
Messrs. HENRY CLEWiii k C0.,..1.1 Wall street.
Gentlemen : In answer to your request of the 7th tilt.,
for our opinion u to the condition and prospects of the
Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Minnesota Railway, the
character of the country through which it passes, and
the probable success of the enterprise, we would state,
that before accepting the trust imposed upon tie by the ,
First Mortgage Bonds of this Company, we had fully
satisfied ourselves as to the practicability of the outer
prieo.
The Road itartsat one of the most flourishing cities
on the Northern Mississippi river, Itiffi runs in a North
westerly direction uptho great rich Cedar Valley, con
necting at prominent points along the lino with six dif
ferent Railroads, now in active operation, nearly all of
which must be, more or less, tributary or feeders to this
Rood.
This enteiprise is destined to become, in connection
with others now in operation or being constructed, one
of the great trunk lines from Lake Superior, via bt.
Paul, Cedar Rapids • and Burlington, to St. Louis,
and to the Bast, over the Toledo, Peoria, and Warsaw,
and the Pennsylvania Railroads. which we present.
But aside from this, the populous condition of the
country along the lino of this road, its great productive
ness and wealth, give sufficient guaranty of a good
local business, which, for any road, is the best reliance

or success.
A good index of the prosperity and wealth of the
country through which this road passes May be
found in the fact that the Company report overa mil
lion and a Quarter dollars subscribed and expended
by individuals residing along the line in noshing
on one hundred and sixty miles of the work, and it
also a efrong proof of the local opularity and necessit
for the road.
Yours respectfully,

President of the reuu'alt. R. Co.

. CRARLICS L. FROST,
Pres't Toledo, Peoria & Warsaw It. R. Co.
As an evidence or the resources and immense traffic of
the section of country through which this road runs
we present the following OFFICIAL STATEMENT OF THE
SL•BI'LUS AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS SHIPPED BROX THE
STATE OF lOWA by the different railroads therein,
dozing the year ending April 30, 1849,just. issued by the
ecretary of State
Number of horses,

Animal products not otherwise specified, lbs 10,983,110
The preceding official statement is made up almost ex
clusively of the shipments Eastward. and does not in
clude the amount of Produce shipped Eastward from
Dubuque or McGregor; which would swell the totals
materially. If the shipments Westward by the railroads
were given, they would Smell immensely this surprising
exhibit of surplus products.

Mr. Ny voted aye; and afterwards changed
his vote, inarking that the Judiciary Com

lowed the example. . Mr. Edmunds then
offered anamendtnent to add the words,
"That the rst clause of this act shall take
affect on Duch 1, 1870, and the residue
th'eriof on is pas Sage." He said this amend- '
meat woulthrevent the admission of Senators

possibility of Legislature repealing its ratifi

posed•the amedment as inconsistent with the

it was allirnted Another objection to it was.
that as a remthl provision it implied the right
of .

amendment wa then withdrawn. No further
action was take on the bill.

• SMALL PDX PDX WN NEW TOOK.
Shwaling Spread of the Disease.
The New York Herald says :
The efforts made by the health officials of
the City to keep the actual facts as to , the
small pox epidemic from the public, so as to
prevent unnecessary alarm, for a time Were
successful, but the loathsome disease obtained
such headway and assumed such pro
portions that the secrets of the Board of
Health could no longer be kept, and the pub
lic, who, with timely warning, might
have prepared for the worst and •guarded
against the disease, were hilted into inactivity.
The Sanitary Superintendent in pursuing this
course was, doubtless, actuated by the best of
motives, but it does seem that ho has
been ill-advised in keeping the actual condi
tion of affairs within his (Mee until the press
exploded it.
The inspectors and medical officers are
working indefatigably to prevent the spread
of this frightful scourge, and ate partially
successful; but, the danger is by no means
passed. In some districts the disease is slowly
creeping 4:?nt into other portions of the neigh
borhoce& most thickly populated. The doc
tors and their racelne matter do - not keep the
ghost down, and in some districts it has even
reached the schools.
There does not appear to be any cause of
complaint with the present energy of the
medical, officers, but certainly somebody
should be held responsible for the introduc
tion of the disease originally through quaran
tin, and its neglect until the eleventh hour.
The health officials give assurances that it
is•now under thorough and complete control,
but this is the statement rung in our ears ever
since it assumed an epidemic- form, and it
would be difficult to draw a line of demark
tion between the points where it is and where
it Is not under complete control.
—ln the Common Council of Janesville,
Wisconsin, the question of ordinances rela
ting to dogs was under discussion, when the
records were referred to, and one was found
to read: "All dogs to be muzzled or shot, ex
cept dogs from the country coming in on busi
ness."
