The Fainter and the horfer.---Thc follow.
ing story is related In q late Paris paper |:
A painter who wished to represent the
trsgica end of Milo, OF Crotono, met in the
street porter OF u most athletic form. He
admired his colossal hgarc and vigorous
muscles, and offered 10 him pound sterling
II he would stand 10 him as a model. /,
was only nscessary to tie his hands, and
conhoe them within an iron ring, in order
to teprcset, as we'll as possible, the trunk
of the Wee IN which Miles hands wore ina
prisoned when he was dovou.ed by wild
beasts. The porter readily consented TO
The painters proposal; he s,ript himself add
suffered his hands to be bound. Now said
the artist, imagine that a lion Is dar,ing up
on 700: aod make every cHorl which you
would do in such case to escape his fury.
The model threw himself into the most vio-
len, agitation but he made too many grima.
ces there was nothing natural in his fright.
ful contorlions. Tho painter gave him fur.
thor directions, but still he failed Of produce
iog tho desired cifect.--A, length he thought
of the follow ing singular method. He Let
loose vigorous mas,if, which was kept in
tho yard OF tho house, and desired, him TO
seize the unfortunate captive. This excited
both ges,icolation and utteraucc. Tue efforts
Of the porter thus became natural, and the
fury OF the amin al Increased in proportion as
his STRUGGLES were violent. The painter in
n ht OF transport, seized his pencils. Tho
patient, however, who had bccn bitten and
torn by the dog, uttered violent cries. Ex-
cellent B,avo exclaimed the artist. Con.
tinue; On! that's admirable! Finally, the
sitting, or rather the torture, being at an end,
the ariis offered tho promised salary but the
model replied, that he had agreed to accept
Ola pound sterling for being painted, and not
for being bitten he demanded a large indem.
nifty. The affair has been brought before
the tribunals. es,.
