Who can tell what forms of beauty and visions of fame flitted through his excited brain, wild with the de light of Lorenzo's notice? Could he foresee the wonderful creations which would make a world stand in si-lent admiration and awe ? Could he know that under the dome of St. Peter's at Rome, the civilization, divorce, would be never heard of, and our children, imbib ing the purity, the truthfulness and the religion of their parents, would grow up as polished pillars in the temple of our God.

Small in stature, she possessed sym metry of person which at once at tracted attention and secured her a friend. Being a daughter of the Emerald Isle, she displayed in a great degree the wit of Hibernia, and her ringing laugh was the charm of her family circle. She entwined herself around one's heart imper ceptibly, but the more effectually because it was done without an ef fort, and the closer the chain was shackled, the more delighted was her prisoner.

Four hundred years ago, in the gardens of the Medici Palace, might be seen a party of the young friends of Piero de Medici, who had been dismissed from the learned talk of the savans and artists who surrounded the hospitable table of " Lorenzo the Magnificent," as he is often called. There had been an unusual fall of snow for the warm climate of Ita ly, and it lay before them on the ground in that soft, tempting whiteness that school-boys like so well. It covered the statues and fountains, and made grotesque fig ures of the shrubs, which were cut in curious forms. 44 Let us make statues, and dec orate this gallery," proposed one, a youth of fourteen. 44 Of what ?" said another. 44 Of the snow," replied the first . speaker, named Michael Angelo ; j and with merry shouts they plung- j ed into the snow, without a thought ! of their costumes of velvet and Written for the Era.

I determined to make myself quite at home whether in the log hut oT the pine forest or the city hotel, and to give full scope to my inclinations and drink deeply from the cup of I sociality. On the evening of a certain day, i as I was alighting from the cars I which had then arrived at the de- ! pot of a pretty town which derives its name from one of England's old nobility, I was accosted by a very ! polite colored man, who promised me the most comfortable awoirfmo fiction that could be had in that town, and liking his open, truthful countenance, I was induced to yield to his persuasion and to accept the hospitality offered to me. I found more pleasure (I use the word in its true meaning) than I was led to ex pect, and the days Hew by imper ceptibly. When I discovered that I had remained two weeks where I only intended to remain two days. I ture could not bear a parting, espe- ; cially when that parting was caused j jactf carrying it and piling it in by a slight misunderstanding.

He carved the colos sal statue of the young David for the Ducal palace of Florence. He designed, and in part completed, the grand mausoleum for Julius II, the central figure of which is Moses, at which he worked over forty years; and the reclining figures of Day and Night, Morning and Eve ning, are so much admired that they are to be reproduced on a monument soon to be erected to Michael Angelo at the scene of his labors. There are but few paintings of his on canvas, for he is said to have had a contempt for easel pictures. The Pope sent for him to come and decorate the walls of his chapel at the Vatican. The architects did not know how to construct a scaf folding which would enable him to reach the ceiling, and he invented one ; and also a curious paper cap, which would hold a candle in the front, and thus leave his hands free to work at night. He covered the ceilings with beautiful paintings of scenes taken from the Old Testa ment. Thirty years afterward, he painted on the end wall of the chapel the wonderful picture of 44 The Last Judgment." Thousands of people visit it every year, and gaze cn it with reverence and won der and delight, for it is one of the greatest pictures in the world. St. Peter's was the closing work of his life. Begun long before, to him, and she did so. In his wis dom he thought he could please his sovereign by sending the apple to him, and did so. Of course, the Empress was greatly chagrined, and all the jealousy in the Empe ror's nature being roused, he sent for his wife and asked her what she had done with it. She said she had eaten it, and having told one lie, she had to tell many. At last the Emperor produced the apple, and the result was that she was banish ed from. court. The foundation for most of the jealousy which exists between "husbands and wives is as slim as this. Jane, Queen of Spain, and mother of Charles V., lost her reason through jealousy, which al ways in closing one door opens two, or the 4 'gate of Phanus." Phanus, the reader will recollect, had a wife he was suspicious of ; so ho built a gate so heavy that its least turning would wake him up. About the time he was satisfied of his wife's innocence he discovered a hole cut in the roof of the house, through which his wife's lover used to get in. But love i3 strong, too.

Many who can run, and jump, and bear any fatigue, cannot, observe, cannot examine, cannot reason or judge, contrive or execute; they do not think. Accustom yourself, then, to think ing. Set yourself to understand whatever you set or read. To run through a book is not a diflicuit task, nor is it a very profitable one.

No interlopers were permitted to intrude their presence within the portals of her heart, for it was dedicated to an idol at whose shrine she worshipped. But the mercurial little Norah had not so learned the tenets of that peculiar religion which tells us that it is better to give than to receive. Violette had learned that lesson thoroughly, and had endeavoured to teach it both by precept and ex ample to her foster sister, and was ready to give up all the world and concentrate her love on Norah ; but Norah found it too hard a task to lavish her affectious entirely on Vi olette. Other objects had presented themselves to her view, some of which possessed attractions difficult to withstand, and one in particular held the key that unlocked the casket and claimed the gem of her affection as his own.

Well, Dempsey saw at last that his love was not re ciprocated"; jealousy took possession of his mind, and soon after that the idea of suicide ; but before he killed himself he would kill everything he loved first ; so he took his dogs., which were next to his life almost, and killed them.The attempt on Lot tie Warren's life followed, and then he was ready to go.

She is the daughter of Dr. Jos. Shepard, a physician of high stand ing in London, and formerly of St. Louis, Mo. For some time past her letters have attracted the attention of many Americans who have visited and lived iff London, not only by their vivid description-of things as they occur, but by their truthful pictures of facts and their conscien tious details of matters in art. Du ring the past three years this lady has been the favorite of some' of the most recherche reunions in the English capital, and her presence is always looked for at Lady Hardy's brilliant and high-toned reception Saturday evenings ,) It was at one of these receptions that the famous portrait painter, Havel, met her, and struck by the beauty of her features and .face, begged she would allow him to paint her portrait for the Itoyal Academy.
