It appears that the rent , of the smallest furnished apartment to be amounts - i_to_about.one hundred *and'fitty pounds a year,_ .lthile that _of tw_o. furnished rooms- in the highest story of a hotel would amount to about one hundred and ninety pounds a year; and that the gentlemen of the embassy, being 'un willing - to incur - the expense .of - purchasing - furniture, generally consider it the most econoinical-plan-to-take rooms -at-thelietel_ which they frequent for their meals. If, there fore the cost of lodging be one hundred and ninety pounds, and that of maintenance be cal culated-at- - one - hundred --and-forty-pounds, - a -=- - servant at sixty: pounds, and a carriage at •two , 'hundred and . forty pounds, these four items ' would ' anionint 'to blic hundred arid thirty pounds, without any allowance for washing v dress and various minor--expenses which.. are daily incurred- by every _gentleman living in society.. „I think, therefore he would be a very careful and economical person who could live for eight hundred pounds a year. The price Lpaid for little things generally excites the sur -1 prise 01' strangers visiting St. Petersburg." From these statements, it appears that the -average-expenses of the junior members of a legation at a European court cannot be less than three thousand dollars a year. And yet the secretaries of our American legations are paid only eighteen hundred dollars a year. Obviously their salaries are wholly inadequate, and the country ought to withdraw its lega tions or pay them decent wages.

They should be, and commonly are, written without looking to eventualities.- In - case of real or supposed ill trtheyZtiay y propetly — etirftrey — a re proach in every line. Beyond this - all that can - be required is that they should betrUtliful, and they-should be filled with mutual egotism. Iu whatever'respect Or degree they depart from these conditions, and stray on to rational sub- jects or the interests and cares of third parties, they cease in that proportion to represent the typical and mast of ',love , letter. The letters of „11. , good many young girls are real love-letters in their way; but,.bwing to the very small knowledge of their own grammar 40d len guage required in English schoolboys,their let ters-to-eaeotherTevett-afte lr- they-]rave--p . ceeded to the universitiesnay 'he atlectiOmkte, truthful, and egotistical enough, 'but-- they are also poverty-stricken, abrupt, and full of tau tology. The epistles of German and French students to each other are ofreti very curious, enthusiastic almost to passion in friendship, _full of. theory andideas va,t, flazy,often_quite impracticable, they are still not without merit. They sometimes contairvscbolarship, poetry, and philosophy ; while the French :Mound in sentiment at once generous and tierce, and commonly in trenchant logic. One of the first conditions of writitig letters which me to be of any usefulness or designed to give any pleasure is legibility, and this cardinal feature is too frequently absent. People either cannot or will not take the trouble . to write decently. Lawyers and commercial men are generally careful on thi4 point, and though thete are . barristers WlMse opinions are not to be deciphered except by their own • clerks, it is done of malice aforethought. But medical and literary men are notorious sinners; and in the first the fault is inexcusable, on account of the risk 'Milne(' when medical advice and pre scriptions-are not rightly understood. Business letters may be, though they rarely are, too concise; but they can never be too clear. The professional written opinion or letter of advice of a thoroughly able and educated solicitor is - often quite admirable in these respects. Abstract propositions find no place, f.r they are apt to be quoted at inconvenient tunes; and in general no reasons me given for any course of action, or for any refusal to act, be,- cause that always albirds an opportunity to the other party for proposing something to which such reasons do not apply, or will in the future give a plausible pretest for recmu- mencing a project on the ground that the — cause Tif objection — is altereirin form, — has ceased to exist, or is otherwise depri‘'ed of weight and power. But a man sito\lW , be careful how he acquires a reputation for ex cessive dexterity or sharpness iu business, be cause it may degenerate into a character for cunning. NoAt, to be esteemed sagacious and subtle is g ood, but it is not good to be deemed cunning; and, therefore, if he is wise he will let it be undersai&l — that his dexterity in let,: ters and conversation is used in defence rather 'than in aggression—as in ,giiartling a .secret, • covering, a retreat, or repelling au insidious attack. The letters of literary men, often ex r cusably careless,sbould be at least suggestive; bud the epistles of some authors read like a cross between a memorandum book and a diction- ary of synonyms.. A,thoughtouore frequently only a fancy without form If not .altogether void, is thrown out at random, and sonnatis . crude and fruitless; it has not about it even the dignity of a fragment, which is a broken part of what has been. The writer feels that he has proved his ability sufficiently by con •ceiving an idea, which he lacks industry and force to develop. In this matterof brain work, begun' in vanity and finished in weakness, a whole history, partly pathetic and partly humil iating, might be written. Then there are . the angry letters; indited •either h the first wrath or out of peut-up terness ' • and. they are often good reading, at least to third parties. The - writer imagines his cause is the just one, and real indignation; whether on the wrong side or the right, gives force and inspires interest. Moreover, with •one who has the gift of imagination ' and Nth° possesses.the _art and is.possessed by Die, desire •of 'composition; there comes the horrible and irresistible temptation to improve on the situa tion, to draw on the dramatic power, to point this sentence.and turn that until the letter be comes a hrief—an arraignment of the absimit .one, ditlicult to forget or forgive, though all the time. the man's heart may be lorwing to forgive, And is only , unable to do.ao beLuse it cannot - forget --- Onsuciroceasions - wer — liiiVe — ktuThfifa -- limn to actually conjure up replies to a purely Meal ease. and ind7gnantlrelniti_rilitnltttanta _ - lever at vanced; an( , of conise, the wrongs and • , on ' ions are mad matter for qnestion, con-' trovers. and grjc4anee, jfiSt 'as, if they werO real, to th arimement and dismay of the in- dividual add sed. It is, we think, Mr. Trol -lope who su b 0 .- rests . that'a good method for the dispersion of is to write . it all out at full leugtt, and then to lock up , the wrathful dem pent I ; Ilk) indignaut writer wilt.lntvo the core- fort of knowing that he can ht any time direct; and send it to the post, and this - mflectioo will ofien.att as a sedative z When he, is either in= ceased oi,depressen be call draw At forth, read; it over, arid think - how well and truly he lies; expressed himself, and Jaw* merciful ,be is not f to send it. , :And aohielday after doing . this the accusations will seem stale, the words hard,and the °lrene.° will be dim and small ; then, if he is generous and .atniable, he will burn it to ashes. As Hawthorne says, ~"Terrible as they ; are,.what Should we do, withorit 'fire and death?" ,• , Femeleltlinileol Composers. • , The remarkl Is 'often i made—a little rashly, t we fear--that,ihe word has not ' yet - produced a female el:imposer of music. Ar writer in' al German - paper. at' Chicago, Mr. J,ulius EuChs' has controverted this statement . ' • ''Besid - es'the -- well-known - compositions of Clara - Sehumann (among which especially Op. 17, trio In G minor;`Op. 16, three preludes andl lugues ; Op. 7, concerto for piano and arches-% tra), Funny Ileitselt, Wilbelmina, Clams, musi cal literature exhibits also compositions of less distinguished composers.. The compositions ate notmerely the result of - emitient - iiiialifie . 4.-: Lion, but evince also most .earnest study -of composition. To these belong: 'Symphony: hi B Minor,' by Emily Mayer (published by Bole & Bock, Berlin) ; the overture of Gotz • von_ ~Berlichingen '- by Julia Schmidt; the opera Ciattd;iia, by Countess Hoch berg. In song, lathes have , not carried' the dilution—i. c., debasement—of feeling so far as Abt, Gunibert, Kuecken, Groben, Hull ntaitni &c:--011 the'contnzy, - the songs - of - Mrs. - Puget have frequently becn.used, even.by..Ger— malls, as themes for fantasies for the piano. beela Badarzewska, it is true, finds her rivals hi the - composers oesten, Kletterer, Osborne, Wely, Talexy, Meyer, Voss, Spindler, Krug, Kuhl, &c. These form almost the exclusive musical food of. the great majority of those ho_ play_.the- piano r amL_do .not,_ only_ degrade _ the taste fot music, but exert thereby a per ',Mons influence on the Cultivation of the mind. It is worthy of note that only_ one wo man, Badarzewska, can be placed opposite r Lese 'manufacturers.' It may, perhaps, be a' matter of interest to know that many Chicago ladies do not only compose., and carry on their study of musical composition in a most tho rough manner; but are not even deterred from the study of the ancient modes, as Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, iliolian, andlonian." • IM POR.TATIONS.
