"Beitiattini, the actual sctdptor, is a young and Peer artist of 'Florence. ' Of his personal distinctions we only got the, fact that he is .t.‘square-bririved."—a Floren tine trait; indeed. It appears to have been his - trick to model portraits of Italian cele brities of the Renaissance and sell them in dead silence to - art-hucksters. his last letter he reveals the fact that a beat "try him of Savonarola had been the object Of simi lar dispute on , 'a , small scale; this previous shain-antique, after having been bought .(doubtless eta - moderate art-price) :and ex posed as a "curiosity. was afterwards er•-• • plaited into limodernlmitationtfor, "when the artists Beall and Costa had learned from me that the bust of - Girolamo Savonarola was my work„ — they at - once published' he, fact in the B(fornia, without trying to turn theworld. topsy- . turyx, as at Paris, • for the bust of Benivtem. The letter a bit of the bravura of an Italian "man of honor," closes with a challenge to the Su iperintendent of the Lenvre to deposit 8,000 francs (just a tithe of the price paid by the ' • Musee for the "Benivieni,") as payment for • a second terracotta, to be artistically _the' equal of that under dispute. • It is addressed to wfriend and patron, „Dettore Forese, a savant and man of letters, proprietor of a museum of vertu, in the islandof Elha. This gentleman has watched the whole story, from the earliest scoops and mkings, of the • sculptor'irthumbs in the clay, to the exalta tion of the, latter as a thirty thousand franc antique in the Louvre.; he. has an anecdote or two which tend to stamp the latter his tory of the bust as odious and excessively I little to the credit:ef.Yrench honor. The carver-youth Pastianini, of course, is poor, and menet always'airord to deteriori _Ate his "antiques" bk scratching his signa 'ture on them. These niceties of feeling are reserved for his letters, where they come out in the most manly -and::chivalrous: • way. On tae contrary, the name of• vieni, the imaginary original (of whom no • - real portrait is known)' seas imprinted on the work in carefully-imitated antique - let- ' •• tem. The "anecdote or two" refer to the troubles of thisPOor genius. . Thefirst French purchaser, ,da.:.Kolivos, visited him in his studio in 1867. The . authenticity. of -the work had at that, time ' been seriously breathe& upon. "So it is ' you," said the mortifiedand therefore furi ous Gaul, "who pretend to be the anther I Yon are a cheat"and an imposter. Come to Paris and we will put you in Charentonli. The young modeler acted just as • Cellim 'would have done. He fie*, _relates F9reSe; at the insolent Frenchman like fury. That is precisely the old Florentine method of de fending the truth, and we can fancy the broken-nosed ghost of Michael Angelo smil ing on the scene.

That is to say, the work never left the palace in which it was deposited after the de Nolivos sale; but . I - it' was set' in another chamber thereof, the Renaissance Gallery, and 'left there in the • company of Benvenuto Cellini's Nymph of Fontaintlean, „Michael Angelo's, Captives, and a precious Marble by Desiderio da Set tignano; and the French tax payers permit ted the Comte-to shift ' into one pocket the, '1 , sum he had recently drawn from another.

Teaching Extraordinary. Perhaps the most striking example of ob ject teaching, if we consider the instruction sought and the attainments of the class, is to be found in the recent tour of inspection of the mines, furnaces, mills; bridges and pub lic works in the Lehigh Valley, by the stu dents of the Philadelphia Polytechnic Col lege. These young men had been pursuing their scientific studkes for - nearlrtivo years, in the various depaitments of mining, metal lurgy, engineering, &c., and an invitation to aid their studies by an examination of the great industrial works of the Valley of the Lehigh, was extended to: them by the pro prietors of the works in the vicinity of -Ca tasliugua2 During two full days, in a special train placed at their disposal—one of their own number acting as_engmeer of the loco motiVe—they visited most of the points of interest to them, stopping- long enouh to make the - examination as full and satisfac tory as possible. Every process of the iron manufacture was witnessed, fromAhe re 'fnoval of the ore to the drawing of the finest wire.' The reducticin of, the ores of zinc, and the conversion of that metal into the white oxide used as paint, were examined, The dimensions of furnaces, the cost, ;method and amount of production,were ascertained. This was followed by a critical examination of the - variotts bridge% with measurements;' sketches, &c. It will thus be seen that While - the' fiireign correspondents of some of our Alfieri= eotemporaries. are writing With deserved commendation of similar practical excursions by the students in the German schools; the same adirantages are enjoyed on our side of the Atlantic; by the students of the Polytechnic.—Ledger. A French Story. Here is an aneedote of one of the last bal de 1' opera in Paris. Before the principal en trance stood a poup of men chatting, laUgh ing - and- Criticising the , masked:couples ns they, - arrived. Two black dominos, very elegantly limping anksaying "Charles, do let us go back. I cannot walk. I cannot even stand." One of the observers of the scene remarked, "That's what comes of putting a big foot - into a little shoe." The lady turned and looked at the speake!, called him by name, rebuked him for his impertinence, and vowed eke would not return. 'The next day the impudent man received a package,. and openingit. found a tiny slipper with a paper attached bearing this note , ‘l3ehold, sir, in what the big foot, which co yon have not seen, would have been very mforta ble last evening if a fool of a coachman had not trodden upon it, and crashed it.with his brutal heel. ' If yon can find in Paris anoth er foot that can go up and down five flights of stairs in this slipper, I will' acknowledge that my nose is a foot long, and my foot_as big as a king's." Since that time the gn tleman-has defoted all his time to finding Ithe owner of the slipper. - • Tim largest orange grove in Florida ie on* the Indian river, thirty Miles south of New Smyrna: It Contains fifteen hundred trees, and , covers abottt, fifteen acres.
