Among the objects OF curiosity exhibited, the
Herald says:
There Is a curious musical instrument called
the mechanical piano This has one great ad-
vantage over ordinary plan sit can be played
~ persons who have no practical knowledge Of
music The performer. by turning handle
exactly similar to that Of hand organ can
play the most difficult pieces The mechanical
arrangement is lu some respects different from
the common Eand piano, but it has also finger
board, and can be played in the same manner
Fals instrument cost five hundred dollars The
muse IS set in a very different style from that
so!i in the music stores, and is, besides, more
expensive, So that, after all, we are inclined to
think that, Whatever advantage it possesses over
the other pianos is more than counterhalanced
by the difference il the price
The same paper, in speaking of specimens Of
Italian sEotuary. says
8 The Yelled Faces are perfect triumph in
this branch Of the fine arts, and show to what
perfection the sculpture Of marble can be
brought ne veil extends over the whole face,
yet leaves every feature as distinctly visible as
Il the veil we're made of gauge. These pieces
are by Rahaele Monti an artist Of considerable
distinction who obtained Il prize at the Worlds
AR IN London for specimens Of art in this par
ticular line.
: Pasquale Romanelli, distinguished Floren-
tine artist, has contributed piece representing
the son of the SWISS patriot Tell Immediately
after the apple was shut from his head We do
not speak too highly Of it when we say that it is
work Of great merit, and is not surpassed by
any in the whole collection The boy is in the
act of rising from his knees, the bandage has
fallen from his eyes upon his neck, aud he is
looking with mlngled expression of pleasure
and astonishment at the apple which is pinned
TO the tree by the arrow from his fathers bow.
The features OF the boy admirably executed,
and the whole body is iaultless Those who
look at this work once, and have love for the
beautiful, must Look again and ag lin before they
leave it,

A FABLE.
BY ELIZA l.. sPRoAT.


Three mon went to garden, each TO plant
rose. One said, looking at the roots They
are good they pierce the earth with pur-
pose-they balance the firm green stem, and
supply it momently with healthy life"
And he said of the flower--"it is useless,
taking no hold on anything, swinging aimless-
ly in the unreal air"
So he crushed the flower, and mixed It's
leaves with the soil, TO enrich those roots which
day by day clAsped the earth more surely, and
called up sturdier strength to the one bare
stem but If ever the gardener found his plant
unconscously yearning into bloom, he stripped
it, and trampled such needless glory into the
clay
So the tree drew all it's life from beneath,
and throve in its single existence but it pleas-
cd no eye, glsddened no heart, and the garden
was not more lovely because it had been plant
ed
But another ssid Of the flower, "this alone 10
worthy; it lives heaveuwsrd, drawing its ethe-
real essence from air and sun, disdsining sus-
tensncs from the gross, unlovely clay"
he parted root from blossom, spurning the
imesner, and exslting his crimson wonder 70
hve oas it own pure life in it's native ether
Alas! the glory faded wind and sun were
700 rare Tor plant which had no roots In
earth, and alter An hour the garden was not
more lovely because of its com,ng.
Then came third, and said Of root and leaf
and blossom, "aH are worthy; roots for the

secrets, resolving the deepest problems Of life
