Claude Lorraine. Claude Tiad wandered to Italy, where he was engaged as a ddmeotie, by A-gostino Trasso, a painter. He was employed to grind his -master s pamts and clean, his ml let and nencils.

From this time he was one of the -botrse bold, j VVas it the voice, 'the SspeaTiS rig1 gJtnce of Agfostind's niece, th gentle Calista, that first awoke the germ of genius in the mind of the youth ?

At length his pjc- ture was completed; and, after j placing it in a favorable light, and shading it with the mantilla of Calista, who assisted in the arranirement, Affostfrio was invited to view it. , i What was the astonishment of- the arl- st ! he almost doubted whether' u was a i representation on canvass, or whetner na ture had started forth, living and breath- ino-. Couid this be the work of his household servant, or had some mighty magician touched the canvass with his wand 2 . ?. c j Great was Gelee's triumph, Calista's was still more exquisite :fher heart swelU ed almost to bursting when she perceiv ed the effect the picture produced upon her uncle: her eyes were suffused with tears, her cheeks tinged with the roseat hue of morning a radiant smile played round her mouth, while her lips, gently parted, seemed about to pour forth the language of inspiration. I Once more Claude sejed the pencil.- A. sketch was completed: but it never was exhibited it became the! companion of his solitary hours, jit hung opposite his couch, in the little attic ; the beautiful eves lookiner down upon him, lh head inclined torward supportea oy us swan like neck. Morning, noon and evening it looked upon him, the image mingled with his matin hymn and vesper song. Is it wonderful that it became the object of his worship, the .Madonna of his rell- ;r . 1 & ; Agostino fell the beauty of Uelee s landscape. With the permtesion of the youth, he sent it to the Duke of Lor raine, as the production ot a sell taugnt artist. The astonishment ol the trio was when a recompense was returned lar exceeding the amount which Agoai- ob had received, and aleo orders for a second painting. i Claude was no longer to continue the household servant ofl A ffostino. J Another was procured to suppjy his place, and his who h t mp dMvntPd to the Dencil. 1 ri- l - t kt His master, with an honorable gene rosily, endeavored to teacn mm me but he was an impatient as a beauty which he per- rited intuitively.

"Man," he exclaim ed, "has made himself inferjor to jthe glo-, riotis world be inhabits; his prerence destToys the harmony of the scene." Jne ngure, however, was introduced, a fair girl, whh her white veil thrown back frOm her head, and her golden locks sporting upon her neck, as they were moved by the passing breefce. She stood on a gerrtle eTwinence,: the soft t-fiulgence of the setting sun casting a halo round her head. Agostino recOgnizejd it at once, as the figure of hjs niece, hb "little Calista," ffs he always called her "It was an excellent likeness," once, said he, with a deep sigh. , "Yes," said the youth, blushing; "but it wants her mind to animate the form. Still, however, it is in keeping with the picture; it has the same perfection that belongs to the inanimate creation. I hive looked at h, till it seemed to me to move. See," ron'trntred he, the foot us a liule advanced ; does it not give an idea of 'he r light step, which scarcely seeros to bend the lowers upon which she treads 7--Then oVserve the quick and j animated turn of jhe head : we need mM look in the face,?to read the beauty of the soul."

Ahl" continued he, with a melancholy stnffe, "it was jonce so with me. Painting is a more tyranical mistress than' Music.y for she will have the whole hearl, but her tuneful sister, derives part of her charm from answer ing cadences." 1 Can it be," said Claude, "that I have been thus insensible, thus selfishly en gtossed ?" Let me fly to her. ' Where may I find her?" "She wanders among the fig-trees, in the little grove behind the houe." Ckud hastened to the spot: life saw her at a distance. Her veil was thrown back, her step.feeble and slow: even then he thought of his art-j there was some thing in her shadowy form so. like bis own ideal, that he hesitated to destroy the illusion by approaching too near.! It was only for a moment,, and then he was by her side. ; 111 She smiled and extended her hand. "Have you come to meat last?"! she ex claimed.. ! ' "Calista!" said the painter casting himself at her feet, "yes thou i art she whom I have so long secretly worshiptd." Faint and exhausted, she sank Upon the bank the youth knelt hy he? side for tbe first time their hearts communed. Calista learned how deeply she had been beloved-, that while she looked upon the menial of her untie as too bright a slar ?t n lift h foe her own orbiti he had not dared to is eyes to a being so radiant with beauty and goodness. Thf?o are precious moments, ex claimed the maiden, "but they are fleet ing. I am called hence; I must away.

Ibat may not be," replied the maidenj thy own genius will obtain for thee an undying name; but a far more g onous immortality awaits thee." Other landscapes were completed, and recompense returned far beyond expecta Hon. llaude was now no longer un known; he was distinguished by Kings and Princes: and when he was called the Italian artist, bis native province as serted its prior claims.
