FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF EUROPE.
- ,? by Nj p.; iittiS.'.' - ;
The Loircrc--American Artists in Paris.
The salient object in my idea of Paris has aP
ways been the Louvre, rl hare spent some
i tours in its vast gallery to-day, ana I am sure
: t will retain the same prominence in my reeol
eetions. The whole palace is one of the, old
est, and said to be one of the finest in Europe;
and, , if I may judge by its j impressiveness, the
vast inner court (the facades of which were re-:
Ftored to theiF original simplicity by Napoleon)
jis a specimen of high architectural perfection.
Vine could hardly pass through it without being
better fitted to see the master-pieces of art
Within; and it requires this, and all the expan
iveness of which the mint! is capable besides,
jto walkthrough the Masee Royal without the
bainful sense of a magnificence beyond the
grasp of the faculties,
I delivered my passport at the door of the
palace-, and, as is customary, recorded my name,
icountry, and profession in the book, and pro-
reeded to the gallery. The grand double stair-
rase, one part leadmg.to the private apartments
of the royal household, is described volumi
nously in the authorities; and, truly, for one
who has been accustomed to convenient dimen
sions only; its breadth, its lofty ceilings, its pil
lars and statuary, its mosaic pavements and
splendid windows are enough to unsettle for
over the standards of size and grandeur. The
strongest feeling one has as he stops half way
up fo look about him, is the ludicrous dispro
portion between it and the size of the inhabit
ing animals. I should smile to see any man as
rcud such a staircase except, perhaps, Napo-Jr-on.
, " : ;
Passing through a kind of entrance-hall, I
fame to a spacious sallc ronde, lighted from the
veiling, and hung principally with pictures of
a large size ; one of the most conspicuous of
whicli, "The Wreck," has been copied by an
American artist, Mr. Gooke, and is now exhib
ilcd in New York. It is one of the best of the
Trench school, and very powerfully conceived.
I regret, however, that he did not prefer the
wonderfully fine piece opposite, which is worth
all the pictures ever painted in France, The
Marriage Supper at Cana." The left wing of
the table, projected towards the spectator, with
jihe seven or eight gucrts who occupy it, abso
lutely stands out into the hall. Jt seems im
passible that colour and drawing upon a flat
- J. - -
Ifrom the sallc ronde on the right opens the
I grand gallery, which, after he lesson I have
just received in perspective, took, at the first
glance, to be a painting.; You will realize the
facility of the deception, when you consider
that, with a breadth of but forty-two feet, this
gillery isT one thousand three hundredand
Thirty-two feet (more than a quarter of a mile)
jn length. The floor is of tcssclated woods,
polished with wax like a table ; and along its
;jlas3y surface were , scattered perhaps a hun
dred visiters, at the pictures in varied attitudes,
and with sizes reduced in proportion to their
distance, the farthest off looking in the long
jterspective like pigmies of the most dimiminu-
tive description. It is like a matchless paint
in o the eve after all. The ceiling is divided
bv nine or ten arches,! standing each on four
. corinthian columns, projecting into 'the area,
and the natural perspective of these, and Jhe
artists scattered from one end to the other, co
jrying silently at their easels ; and a soldier at
rvcr division, standing upon his guard, quite
as silent and motionless, would make it difficult
.to convince a spectator, who was led blindfold
and unprepared to the entrance, that it was not
orne superb diorama, figures and all.
, found our distinguished countryman, Morse,
copying a beautiful Murillo at the end of the
jpticvy. He is also engaged upon a Raflaelle
ilr Cooper, tho novelist. Amonw the French
artists I noticed several soldiers, and some
1 wenty or thirty females, the latter with every
mark in their countenances of absorbed and ex
1 "feme application. There was a striking dif
ference in Ais respect between them and the
artists of the other sex. -With the single ex-
rption of a lovely girl, drawing from a Madon
na, by Guidy, and protected by the presence
an elderly companion, these lady-painters
countryman) shows a curiosity to know who he 1
isi which is very foreign to his usual indiffer
ence. As far as I can analyze" it, is the inde
pendent, self possessed bearing of a man un
used to look up to any one as his superior, in
rank, united to the inquisitive, sensitive, com
municative expression which is the index to
our national character. The first is seldom
possessed in England but by a man of decided
rank, and the latter is never possessed by an
Englishman-at all. The two are united in no
other nation. Nothing is easier than to tell the
rank of an Englishman, and nothing puzzles
a European more than to know how to rate the
pretensions of an American. I feel very proud
of my countrymen here.
On my way, home from the Bouelvards this
evening, I was fortunate enough to pass through
the grand court of the Louvre, at the moment
when the moon broke through the clouds that
have concealed her own light and the sun's
ever since I have been in France. I had often
stopped, in passing the sentinels at the entrance,
to admire the grandeur of the interior to this
oldest of royal places: but to night, my dead
halt within the shadow of the arch, as the view
broke opon my eye, and my sudden exclama
tion in English, startled the grenadier, and he
had half presented his musket, when I apolo
gized, and passed on. It was magically beautiful
indeed! and 'with the moonlight pouring
obliquely into the sombre area, lying full upon
the taller of the three facades, and drawing its
soft line across the rich windows and massive
pilasters and arches of the eastern and western,
while the remaining front lay in the heavy
black shadow of relief it seemed to me more like
an accidental regularity in some rocky glen of
America, than a pile of human design and pro
portion. It is strange how such high walls shut
out the world. The court of the Louvre is in
the very centre of the busiest quarter of Paris,
thousands of people passing and repassing
constantly at the extremity of the long arched
entrances, anfl yei standing on the pavement of
that lonely courr no living creature in sight but
the motionless grenadiers at either gate, the
noise without, coming to your ear in a. subdued
murmur, like the wind on the sea, and nothing
visible above but the sky, resting like a ceiling
on the lofty walls; the impression of utter soli
tude is irresistible. I passed by the arch way
for which Napoleon constructed his bronze
gates, said to be the most magnificent of mod
ern times, and which are now lying in some
obscure corner unused, no succeeding power
having had the spirit or the will to complete,
even by the slight (labour that remained, his im
perial design. All over Paris you may see
similar instances; they meet you at every step;
glorious plans defeated; works, that with a
mere moiety of what has been already expend
ed in their progress, might be finished with an
effect that none j but a mind like Napoleon's
could have originally projected.

Life of Sir Isaac Newton. Newton is one
minished by distance or as the square of the
distance, and he demonstrated that under cer
tain laws it regulated the motions of the whole
material universe of the sun & his planets, the
planets fc their satellites, the eccentric comets.
& the fixed stars. Thereseem, however, to have
been some contemporaneous discoveries of near
ly the same, principle, and Hooke, who had
some pretensions to it, felt himself injured
that Newton should have the whole credit
of the discovery. Hooke, however, had pos
session of some previous letters of Newton to
Huygens, in which the discovery was glanced
at, and he suggested that "it might be a fruit of
his own garden" that Hooke had picked up.
For many years after these discoveries,
Descartes' system of vortices kept its ground
in the universities, and Doctor Samuel Clarke
did much to introduce the true doctrine, by ap
pending it, in the form of notes, to the false.
By this stratagem, truth was smuggled in, and
the Newtonian Philosophy entered Cambridge
under the protection of the Cartesian.
Locke, who, like too many of us in this de
generate age, had not mathematics enough to
follow Newton's demonstrations, but having
been assured by Huygens that the demonstra
tions were perfect, he took them for granted,
and examined the conclusions. This example
will be some justification for "us youth" in our
ignorance of the Principia. This will also
account for our silence concerning rkixzons.
Leibnitz and Bernouillio announced pertain
problems to puzzle the mathematicians, and ex
tended the time for resolving them to a year,
though-Newtonmade a solution in one evening.
And he solved another problem, which Leibnitz
put forth for the purpose of "feling the pulse
of the English analysts, " in the same brief

Of all his discoveries, many lay long on hand,
and not one was voluntarily communicated to
the world by himself. Perhaps he intended
by delay to render them more perfect.
James 11., who loved a catholic priest, hav
ing sent a letter to the University, to obtain
for Father Francis, who was distinguished for
nothing so much as ignorance, the honorary
decree of Master of Arts, the Universitv re

said merely, "O Diamond. Diamond, you little
know the mischief you have don0" though it
gave him much uneasiness for several weeks.
The French philosophers, w ho had little fellow

his subsequent testimony in favor of th,e Chris

We know not that Newton re-produced his j bo

Giecnough', the sculptor, is in Paris; and
engaged just now in taking the bust of an Ita
lian ladv. His reputation is very enviable ; and
his passion for his art,! together with his untir
ing industry and fine natural powers, will work
him up to something that will before long be
an honor to our countfv.
If the wealthy men c-f taste in America would
2?ive Greenough liberal orders for his time and
talents, and send out Augur of New Haven, to
f taly, they would do more to advance this glo
nous art in our country than by expending ten
limes the sum in any other way. They are
ooth men of rare genius, and both ardent and
diligent, and they are both cramped by the uni
versal curse of genius- necessity.' The Ame
ricans in Paris are "deliberating at present on
some means for expsessing unitedly to our
rnvernment their interest in Greenough, and
their appreciation of his merit of public and
private patronage. , For the love of true taste,
do every thing in your power to second such
an appeal when it corries.
