Perkins's paper on Art Museums we take the concluding part: TIIL POTMATIO:si OP A IMUSEE •At the. Archeological .Congress held at Dresden in 1852, the Baron d'Aufsess exposed bis long cherished scheme of establishing a col- lection of material relating to German history, literature and the tine arts, from the earliest Ames down to the middle,of the seventeenth Foamy, including an arcliwological and artistic library, and of renderiug, these treasures useful by publications, manuals and other means. De offered to loan his own vast collections to .the museum fora period often years. This noble project was received with enthusiasm, - and Nuremberg was selected as the city in which it should be carried out..' The nest year Bavaria approved the resolution, and the Diet at Frankfort. decreed that the museum shdultt --- be .called: , "-National." -- -Four years after its foundation it had become so prosperous, through the liberal gifti-of King Louis and the kings of ,Bavaria and Prussia; that its directors Were:enabled to purchase the noble ,old Car thusian convent, where its collections, including thesevirdiasedfrotn Baron d'Aufsess in - 1504, are now arranged. Here are pictures, en gkavingiliiAitSttes, faienOes,- gbldsmiths' work,- medals ' the most remark able of 'which have been 'reproduced in' a series of drawings, photographs and engravings, al . 164'160,000 in 'number ;' (i(),000 tracings and oiraWings - Illustrate seeondary classes of art (as, for instance; all forms of the bed from Roman --tlmes:,to -the- present day), and the-history of eminent ',persons is'followed up through por traits,' coats of arms, seals and medals. At pre,sent -such laudable enterprises are subor dinate to.tho purchase of the masterpieces of the pet, - are beeaming moie and more rare. - The directors wisely spend their ayail able funds in this way, because they know, to borrow the words of M. Muntz, that when America shall enter into no lists, they will no longer have the opportunity. - This reflection is one which, as Hamlet should - - give --us -pause,"- at--least long enough to express the hope that America will • not wait until Europe shall have gathered all the harvest of the past into her .mnseums. It strikes., us the more, because - we have lately met with it elsewhere, even more forcibly expressed. As, for ex ample, in the Chronique des Arts, which counsels France to secure all French master pieces for her national and municipal museums before America, recognizing 'the necessity of forming museums, shall compete for them and - increase their already enormous value. — "-The day zannot be far distant," . says - the writer, "when the United - States will desire to form collectionsjor it is impossible to admit that so intelligent a-people-cationg-coritinue-tolguore— the fact that tine arts.make men moral by rais ing them to'a comprehension of the beautiful, and that they increase the wealth of nations by developing good taste in their artisans." Accustomed to acentral authority which has The power to lead, decree and foster such insti tutions, We cannot wonder that Europeans are unable to comprehend our backwardness in imitating their example. They forget that in dividual exertion must here take the place of government action; that the will of many must be first influenced instead of the will of —one f and---thit--when this is accomplished we wive - no palaces arts castles to supply us with works of art. They do not recognize that we are called upon to solve a new problem, and to discover some way of overcoming the obstacles - whicli - ai - e - created — by °in. position. The history of many ancient and mediaeval cities governed by democratic forms, and actively engaged in commercial pursuits,proves that these are compatible with the utmost splendor of art attainment. Athens, Argos and Samos in antiquity, Florence, Venice and Genoa in the Middle Ages, were all commer cial and all republican. They were led by men who gave, the impulse to popular taste and fos tered its growth; Pericles made Athens the artistic glory of Greece, and Cosmo de' Medici decked Florence with art's brightest jewels. Being themselves monarchs in disguise, they formed a radiating centre which illuminated the whole body politic in matters to which de mocracy and trade are necessarily indifferent. In avowed monarchies we find always the same cause of artistic life or, death; namely, the presence or absence of a central directing spirit, whether inspired by selfish mod es, and patronizing art to enhance the splendor of a reign, or by noble moth - es, - with that it is one of the most elevatin ,, and civilizing influences which can be brought to bear'upon a people. In either case the leader must impose, it upon his' subjects until they have learned to love it, and can no longer exist without it. Munich would still be the insig nificant and unattractive capital of a second rate European kingdom, bad not King Louis been filled with an enthusiastic love .of art,, and a consequent determination to make it 'one of the richest centres of art upon the continent. While still Crown Prince of Bavaria be em ployed agents to point out and obtain for him all available masterpieces, and thus the mar bles from .:gins, the Barberini Faun, and many other treasures found their way to the Glyptothek instead of the British Museum. So also in England all the growth of industrial art may be traced back to the action of Prince Al bert. Se also the power vested in the Empe rors of Russia and Austria. and the King of Bavaria, has been made use of by enlightened men in their dominions to create the new mu seums of which we have spoken in these pages. But where are Americans to find a substitute for this apparently necessary centre of action? Tli*g is a question which we have not hitherto been called upon to answer, and which de mands our gravest consideration. We cannot hOpe to fhid it at Washington, nor in our State governments (though these may eventually aid us by making She study of drawing obligatory in the public, schools), nor can we look for it hi unassisted individual action, which must be limited and comparatively feeble. Our only hope lies in the stronger action of universities and educational institutes. Harvard and Yale, by founding art professorshiPs, and by' aiding art projects to the extent of their ability, may put into willing hands the lever with which to "natve the American world: We look to them for ad as we look to rio other source, because we know that they can most reasonably be ex pected to understand the importance of the work which art museums and schools of design are ;capable of accomplishing. Our' hope for . tlie-success-of- theTroposed - lluseurn — Of - Art iii - Boston, for instance, is mainly grounded npon tlxi',eoltSept of its educational institutions to takm ; ; op t ; active , part in its government, -and_ to,gioaxt, it.

The course to k9n at Kensington Vionna,Stplanting an acorn with hope That it may grow into au oak, does not tally with our impatient desire-to realize our ideas'at once in full: splendor.

What we shall do if we are wise is to begin by build ing only for the' purpose of placing collections already bobt :or given; or better yet, by hiring for this purpose some vacant rooms,' where they can be kept until we'hare matured our plans and found out exactly, what we want. The, Kensington Museum began -in tithe Brorripton Boilers," and iron sheds were added • to cover new acquisitions; so also the'collections at Vienna have been for years kept in the rooms of the Imperial "Ball Haus ' awaiting . the 'completion of a building fitting their present importance. So again the collections of the 'Nuremberg Museum were temporarily placed for eleven years before its ,directors.purchased the Carthusian convent to receive them. All these examples teach us that our motto should be, "Festiva -haute." Given that we start with a - few rooms full of really good objects,—a collection of Chinese or Japanese lac and enamels, for instance, which it would always be easy to form in this country,—and with works of art loaned for a time by public institutions or private persons, supplemented with as many originals and reproduc tions as our funds will allow us to purchase, we cannot fail, if we open our doore freely by day and in tliC evening to the public, to excite an ever-increasing ,Interest • which will lead to gifts of money and works of art, and eventually to the erection of.such a building as will be an honor and an embellish ment to any city. le No man ever.regretted the time spent upon a work which when finished: was pronounced perfect, .and no one ever gauged a result, whether bad or good, by the hours or years spent . over it. The only • important thing is that:When done-there should .be ' no cause for regret. Better never have museum buildings than have bad ones, for if they. are so they will . give the lie to that clause of our programme which professes to serve the clime of art through architecture, the oldest and one of the noblest of arts. From Prof. Lowell's fine critique on Ch aucer we select: . THE ENOLISH OF CHAUCER'S DA Piers Ploughman is the best example I know of what 'is. called popular poetry,—of compositions, that is, which contain all the simpler elements of poetry, but still in solu tion, not crystallized around any thread of ar tistic purpose. In it appears at her best the Anglo Saxon Muse, - a first cousin of Poor Richardjull of proverbial wisdom, who al ways brings her knitting in hir locket and seems most at home in the chimney-corner. It;is genial ; it plants itself firmly - on: human nature with its rights and wrongs; it his a surly honesty, 'prefers the downright to the gfacions - ,andcon - ceives of speech as a tool rather than. a musical instrument., If we should seek for a single word that would de fine it most precisely, -we - should not choose siniplieitY, but homeliness. There is more or. less of this in - all early poetry, to be sure ; but 1 think it especially proper to English poets, and to the most English among them, like Cowper, Crabbe, and one is tempted to add Wordsworth,—where he forgets Coleridge's private lectures. In reading such - poets as Langland, also, we are not to forget a certain charm of distance in the very language they use, making it unbackneyed without being alien. As it is the chief function of the poet to make the familiar novel, these fortunate ! early risers of literature, who gather phrases willnike_dewstilLon tbem,_have their poetry done for them, as it were, by their vocabu lary. But in Chaucer, as in all great poets, the language gets its charm from him. The force and sweetness of his genius kneaded more kindly together the Latin and Teutonic elements of our mother topple, and made something better than either. The necessity of writing poetry, and not mere verse, made him a reformer whether be would or no; and the instinct of his finer ear was a guide such as none betbre him or contemporary with him, nor indeed any that eame after him, till Spenser, could command. Gower had no notion of the uses of rhyme ex cept as a kind of crease at the end of every eighth *liable, where the verse was to be folded over again into another layer. He says, forOcample, " This maiden Canacee was bight Both in the day and eke by night," as if people commonly changed their names at dark. Atari he could not even contrive to say this without theclumsy - plegnasin of 'both and eke. Chaucer was put to no such shifts of piecing out his metre with loose-woyen bits of baser stuff; He himself says, in the Man of Law's Tale,— " Me lists not of the chaff nor of the straw To make so long a tale as of the corn." One of the world's three or four great story tellers, he was also one of the best versifiers that ever made. English trip and sing with a gayety that seems careless, but where every font beats time to the tune of the thought. By the skilful arrangement of his pauses heevaded the monotony of the couplet, and gave to the rhymed pentameter, which he made our heroic measure, something of the architectural repose -of blank verse. He found our language stiff, unwilling,.too apt „to. speak Saxonly. in gouty . rnonosyllables ; he left it enriched .with the longer measure of the Italian and Provencal poets. He reconciled, in the har mony of his verse, the English bluntness with the dignity and elegance of the less homely Southeyn speech. Though lie did not and could not create our language (for he who writes to be read does not write for litignisters), yet it is true that he first made it easy, and to that extent modern, so that Spenser, two - hundred years later, studied his method and Called him master. He first wrote English; and It was a feeling of this, I suspect, that made it fashionable in Elizabeth's day to " talk pure Chaucer." Already we find in his works verses that might pass without question in Milton or even Wordaworth,so mainly uuchan ged ha.ve the language of poetry and the movement of verse remained from his day to our own. " Thou Polymnia On Pernaso, that, with thy sisters glad, By Helicon, not far from Cirrea,. tiingest with voice memorial in the shade, Under the laurel which that may not fade." "And downward from a hill under a bent There stood the temple of Mars omnipotent Wrought all of burntl steel, of which th entree. Was long and strait and ghastly for to see: The northern light in at the doors shone__ For window in the wall no was, there none Through, which men mighten any light dis gerpe ; , the dore WWI all of adamant eterne." And here are some lines that - would not seem out of' place in the Paradise of Dainty' rfe " BidO; Absolom, thy gilt.

To some extent,the same thing is true of anapiestic and .other tripping measures, but we cannot admit it in marching tunes like those; of Chaucer. lie wrote for the eye more than 'for - the voice, as poets had begun to do long• before. Some loose talk of Coleridge, loose hi spite of its af fectation of scientific precision, about I , retarda tions " and the like, has misled many honest persons into believing that they can make good verse out of bad prose. .Coleridge himself, from natural fineness of ear, was the best metrist among modern English poets, and, read with proper allowances, his remarks upon versification are always, instructive to' Whoever IS not rhythm-deaf. But one 'llO no patience with the dyspondreuses, the - pion primuses, and Whatnot, with which- he. darkens --verses that are to be explained only by the contem porary habits of pronunciation. Till after the time of Shakespeare we must- always bear in mind that it is not a language of books but of living speech that we have to deal-with, CIIIAUCER'S • With - Chaucer it is always' the - thing itself and not the description of -it that is, the main object. His picturesque bits are incidental to the•story, glimpsed in passing-;:they never stop .the way. His key is so low that his highlights are never obtrusive. his imitators, like. Leigh Hunt, and Keats in - his Eudymion, missing the • nice gradation with which the master toned everything down, became streaky. Hogarth, who reminds one of him in the ivariety and natural ,action of his figures, is like him also in the subdued brilliancy of his coloring. When Chaucer condenses, it is because his conception is viN id. lie does not need to personify Re venge, for personification •is but the subterfuge of unimaginative and professional poets; but he - embodies the-very • passion itself in - a verse that makes us glance over our shoulder as if we heard a stealthy tread behind us : " The smiler with the knife hid under the cloak." (Compare this with the Mumbo-jurobo Re venge in Collins's Ode.) And yet how unlike —is-the-operatiou_of_ the imapina. lye faculty in him and Shakespeare! When the latter de scribes, bis epithets imply always an impression on the moral sense (so to speak) of the person who hears or sees. The sun " flatters the mountain-tops with sovereign eye ;," the bend ing "weeds lacquey the dull streank," the shadow of the falcon " coucheth the fowl be low ;" the smoke is " helpless ;" when Tarquin enters the chamber of Lucrece "the threshold grates the door to have him heard." His out ward sense is merely a window through which the metaphysical eye looks forth, and his mind passes over at once from the simple sensation -to-the complex meaning of it,—feels with the object instead of merely feeling it. His imagi nation is forever dramatizing. Chaucer gives only the direct impression made on the eye or ear. He was the first great poet who really loved outward nature as the source of coni scions pleasurable emotion. The Troubadour hailed the return of spring; but with him it was a piece of empty ritualism. Chaucer took a true delight in the new green of the leaves and the return of singing birds,—a delight as simple as that of Robin Hood : " In summer when the shawl be sheen And leaves be large and long, It is inn merry in fair forest To hear the small birds' song." He has never so.much as beard of the "burtheia and the mystery ofall this unintelligible worlff.' His flowers and trees and birds have never bothered themselves with Spinoza. He him self sings more like a bird'than any other poet, because it never occurred to him, as to Goethe, that be ought to do so. He pours • himself out in sincere joy and thankfulness. Nyhen 'We compare Spenser's imitations of him with: the , original passages we feel that the delight of the later poet was more in the expression than the thing itself. Nature with him is only' good:to be transfigured by art. We walk among Chau cer's sights and sounds; we listen to Spenser's musical reproduction of them... In thesame way; the pleasUre which Chaucer takes ha, tell ing his stories has in itself the" effect of consnm ' mate,skill,and makes us follow all the windings of his fancy with: sympathetic interest., His best tales run on like one of our inland rivers,some times hastening a little and turning upon them selves in eddies that dimple without retarding the current ; " sometimes loitering smoothly, while here and - there a'quiet thought, a tender feeling, a pleasant image, a golden-hearted verse, opens quietly as a water-lily, to float - orr the surface without .breaking it into ripple. Tbe vulgar intellectual palate bankers .after the titillation of foaming phrase. andthinks nothing good for much that does not go off with a pop like a champagne cork. The mei- - low suavity of more precious vintages seems W- I .sipid ; but the taste, in proportion as.it .refines,,. learns to appreciate the indefinable flavor, - too for analysis. A manner has prevailed of late in which every other word seems to be underscored, as in .a school-girl's letter. The poet seems intent on' showing his sinew, as if the power of the slim Apollo lay in the girth of his biceps. Foree'for the mere sake of ,force ends like Milo, caught and held mockingly fast by the recoil, of the log he undertook to rive. In the race of fame, there are a score capable of brilliant spoils for one who comes in winner alter a steady pull with wind land muscle to spare. Chaucer . never Stows any ' signs of effort, and it is a main proof of his excellence 'that he can be so adequately sampled by detached passages—by single lines taken away from the connection in which they con ' itilbute to, the general effect. He has that con tinuity of thought, ' that evenly-prolonged 'power, and' that delightful equanimity, `which. !characterize the higher orders of mind. There is Soinething.in him• of the disinterestednesS tliat'made the Greeks .I:i:tasters in art. His ipbtase is never importunate.. His simplicity is ,that of elegance, not poverty.
