PHILADELPHIA, THU4SDAY, MARCH 3, 1870. PoIitEIGN CORRESPONDENCE LETTER FROM. BONE. Portraitla or Greek Princes-.A csiteens at Elorenee—Von Bulow and 1.155a....d. Visit to the "lea of Rome. [Correspondence 01 tee Philadelphia .sins Bulletin. Rom:, Italy, Feb. 11, 1870.—'Madame Jeri chau-Bauniann, whom I have often men tioned in preceding letters, has been in the East for some months. She went to the open-- ing of the Isthmus of Suez Canal, and is now in Athens, Greece, painting the portraits of the King and Queen and their two children. I have just received a letter from this distin• Visited artist, inclosing a photograph of her portraits of the two Princes—Prince Royal Constantine and. Prince George, Count, of Corfu. I believe the Prince Royal is also Duke of Athens. How poetical these titles are ! and of how little worth, after all—for the poor little fellows way, when they are grown up, be without kingdom or home. They are tine-looking children, and Madame' Jerichau has made a spirited picture of them. The two boys—the elder of whom is only nineteen months old, the younger eight months—are, on a bed; the' Prince Royal, a chubby, bold little fellow, looks full front at you ; and be hind, peeping out from under the curtain roguishly, is the little. Count of Corfu, in a most sprawling natural position, creeping across the pillow, looking ad he had escaped from his_tmrse, and he and his rother were ready toaeA you in any sort of lic . The photograph has on the back the adds of the photographer ,in Greek, which may be rit ten in English : P. Moraites, Athena. Liszt is in Rome for a few days. He come. into the city from the Villa d'Este, at Tivoli every two or three weeks- Von Bulow has been at Florence ever since his separation from his wife; but he has never appeared in public until a few evenings ago. I have just received a delightful account of the occasion. The Cherabini Society gave a concert for the benefit of the Pisi&ns who were injured by the terrible inundations which took place in De cember at Pisa. The tickets wore placed at ten and twenty francs, and five thousand francs, over and above all expenses, were cleared by the concert. Besides Von Bulow's pieces, there was some fine singing. The ehorus, under the direction of Mme. Lartsset, sang the Kyrie and. Gloria of Cberubini's Coronation Mass, the mass in A, which was' compotied for Napoleon I', coronation—a more martial , than religious composition. The chorus• sang, also, Liszt's Pator. .Nci*ter. and Ave Maria, unpublished compositions,dedicated by the great pianist to the Cherubini Society. I have heard both ,pieces, trot with clients, but as solos to the piano—Of course not to full advantage. The Pate- Nester did not eezigio - niz - vory nude: dious. A great deal of Liszt's music, when played by others, shows that it is fuller of in tricate and curious harmonies than melody. When the master expresses them; he puts into them an indefinable something which makes amends for all. But Liezt's music proves that he is so deeply interested' in that difficult; fascinating musical essence, harmony, as to allow it to predominate over the melodic form. But this Ave Maria of Liszt is ono of the exceptions. It is religious music of the high est style—pure Palestrina, with the fire and spirit of the 19th century. The Italians say of this Ave Maria that when it is printed the publisher should send some copies to Heaven, There would be such quick .sales there of it among, the angels that there would be no end to the new editions. - - • But I have a few words more to mei , about the Below conceit at Florence. The 'Palle of to-day Las just come in from the post. Dehare, the clever musical and theatrical critic of the Italie, has quite an etude on the concert,written in that poetical descriptive style Liszt, Berlioz and De Lanz have made so attractive.- I will fill up my friend's acconnt by quoting . from Delatre. , • Von Bulow played four pieces - " - Allegro' , (opus 46) of Chopin; Liszt's " Elegie" and " Venice and Naples,". suid:the Grand Trio (opus 98) of Beethoven, "all par sour"—by heart. Of the . Allegro and Liszt's pieces De latre says The Allegro of Chopin is a' harmonic piece of fabulous difficulty. Its execution re quires arms of iron, hands of steel, and a back of brass. Chopin himself, who wrote it, was not able to master it. It is an impregnable re doubt for most pianists. Von litdow carried it by assault with ease, sometimes looking at the artists, sometimes at the public, with the air of a man to whom the word "difficult" has no sense. The piano became an orchestra un der his fingers. But Chopin is more attractive in pieces where he abandons himself to his habitual melancholy ; in which he relates his chagrins, his unfortunate loves, his cruel de ceptious. Chopin is greatest when he is tender and dreamy. ." The Elegy of Liszt is a little in the style of the Allegro of Chopin. It is a composition full of virtuoso developments, where the me • hanical cleverness of a pianist can shine, bitt in which the heart is not present- Naples and Venice' is a superb picture Which nieces under our eyes the two sirens of Italy, in their holiday clothis, ori a fine summer's day or evening. Venice, in a gon dola, modulates the popular air, La Biondina, accompanying it with the guitar. Naples, be tween one eruption and another, dances at the loot of flaming Vesuvius the Dyosiniaque of the Greeks of Tarenta—the Tarentella, that precious fragment of the choregraphic art of the ancients. Liszt has comprehended and rendered• the poetry of the subject marvel ously, and Von Bulow interpreted it with rare perfection. Von Bulow makes the most, obscure texts sound clear. He is like those German philologists,, who, coming across a Greek verse that is tiOnsidered unintelligible, make it instantly clear and intelligible by means of a simple comma. This comma is a ray of light—it le tbo sense. Certain musical compositions, which aro only pale engravings when played by other pianists, become glow ing pictures, full of life, tinder Von l3ulow's hands, for be puts into them effect, color, all the i shades needed, .and which he alone di- i vines. This morning •.I viisited >the Ludoviai Villa Re - the', dozenth with Some 'PhilittleL phians (powßowe, hltiti3 Merrick and her OUR WHOLE COUNTRY. party, Miss Itergwin • and Miss McCrea. The fine Ludevisian Juno was, of course, the first thing we looked at. Lofty beauty, loveliness and grice make of this work one of the most exquisite creations of ,clissic art.

But the wonderful bronze bust of Julius Ciesar Was, as it alitaYs is, most auggesfiv a to each of us. It is a enr!owi study, and .seems 'every time I look at lt,to grow reMie'and More life-like.. It is a delicate, high-bred face. The forehead tells the secret of the great Roman's remarkable influence.; Strong intellectual power is developed in it, and added to Obi, is a mouth whose tight muscles show•the love of and exercise of authority. The portrait busts of the ancients display a perfect comprehen slim of cbaracter,as well as physical imitation Nature and truth Speak out •In every one of them; This bust of Caesar, for example, if we' did not know its name,.would still represent to us just such a man as Julius Caesar is de scribed in history. • We Should say there was, a matt who surely comprehended all worldly things. His mind—his tact—was full of repro ductive activity; he 'was ambitious, ready, and gloried in meeting obstacles ; 4 he was made for a ruler; but he . paid a deat, price—care, anxiety, and passion made heavy furrows in his face. We left the statue gallery and went - to the Belvidere. where we allowed Gucrcino's Au rora to maker's unfaithful to the famous Guido Aurora in the Rospiglicksopalace. The painted architecture and accessorj pictures in the Guercino fresco are great attractions. What could be more enchanting than the sleeping mother and children in the end picture, the, owl sitting in the wall, the lamp burning, the bat flying off in the dark deep blue sky, and morning's angels just peeping in on their peaceful slumbers? We ascended the staircase to the terrace. roof, and looked over Rome and the Cam pagni. Not only the far-otf Appenines are covered with snow, but even the nearer t•:atine hills. The sun shone very clear; but ' the air.as it came from those snowy mountain fields, was keen and cold. Rome lay at our feet.; and, as usual, after pointing out tioracto and all the principal points• in the distance, our eyes fell on the ever-attractive buildings of the'Eternal City. We named over St. Maria Maggiore and St. John of Lateran, all the various bell-teWers and dennes,and tit. Peter's, with Vatican ' group of buildings, which - hverilliows to such great advantage as at dlixlance and a height such as that which we were uperi". Then we walked a little through the beauti ful arentieti ; •noticed the snow which fell last night—" a little October whisk," as we should call it in. America—lying. on the green, green grass at mid-day, not. melliu2 in the shade, for the air was-keen, but the sun was . an Italian one, warm and golden, and the sky blue ab Italy's sky should be. It was• very still, and the shadows of the thick foliage. of the trees, as they lay on the snow-covered grass, prothiced a curious contradictory effect: Snow of winter, trees of bummer! -One of the party quoted, with charming grace, from Milton's Penseroso: " Me, goddess, bring • To arched walks of twilight groves And shadow's brown, that Sylvan loves ; Of pine, or monumental oak, • Where the rude axe, with heaved stroke, Was never beard the nymphs to daunt." But just as she arrived at the line " Where the rude axe," strangely enough a woodman's axe in the distance came in upon the ear and broke up the recitation; but it was encored, and was very appropriate to the beautiful al, alum and leafy• shades of the Ludovisi villa. - - _ - Bunwsrutt.
