AMERICAN ART IN LoNDoN.-Mr Page another of
the skilled American artists who have studied and
soJourned in Rome, has brought with him from It
ally picture Of Venus on the Sea, attended by two
Loves. The work is treated, in some respects with
that ideal disregard ofproportion in detail which
Is permitted to the sculptor. The shell on which
the queen OF Love moves forward is as small as a
coracie IN dream; the doves in the immediate
foreground too, are perhaps also liable to the same
crltlclsm. Ii these conditions are to be accented
tue picture is thereby placed in the lists for such
honors as belong to the most ideal Art We are
not prepared to assert that Mr.. Page altogether
reaches this high standard but his ambition is more
man man commonly honorable in days like these. when
0m sm IN painting is thrust on US as the Al,ha and
o"eya Oh It's excellence. His Venus has the hauph
ana triumphant beauty of her whose fascinotions
coulu orlng the sword and the firebrand amonr
men, as well as gentler sensations and evc;temontS
not less potent butless fierce Her bust bar orn,s
and lower limbs are well modelled with narbars .
trlne TOO much anxiety to exactnesz of .rt;rrIa
tion nude figure, however, ought not IN sn%

Mr.. Pages Venus hardly escapes this CHARGE, His
coloring, with a certain tendency towards sombre-
richness, (such time has brought over the
carnations of Giorgione and Palma, is solid. at
tractlve and harmonious. The picture in short is
a hne one-ln no respect to be made light of-Ope
whlch, whether it be taken for better or for worse
WIN agreement or with disagreement, cannot be
looked at, without interesting suggestion and
remembrance being excited-which cannot be
recolected, without sincere respect for the aspir

Gle on emigration, from which | select the passage
subjoined. 1t has already been printed in the
United States, but it not known here that the
article was written by the President himself:
"Hayti will soon regain her ancient splendor
This marvellous soil that our fathe rs blessed by
| God, conquered for us, will soon Weld to us the
wealth now hidden in its bosom. Let our black and
yellow brethren scattered through the Antilles and
North and South America, hasten to Cooperate
with us in restoring the glory of the republic
Hayti is the common country of the black race
Our ancestors in taking possession of it, were care
ful to announce in the Constitution that they mn
lished, that all the descendants of Africans and of
the inhabitants of the West Indies belong bv ripbt
to the Haytian family. The idea was grand and
generous
''Listen, then, all you negroes and muattoes
who, in the vast continent OF America, suffer from
the prejudces of caste. The republic calls YOU; she
invites you to bring to her your arms and your
minds. The regeneratng work that she undertakes
interests all cOlored people and their descendants
no matter what their origin where their place of
birth.
"Hayti, regaining her former position, retakinc
her ancient sceptre Queen of the Antilles will be
a formal denial, most eloquent and peremptory
against those detractors of our race who contest
our desire or ability to attain a high degree of
civilization"

How TO GET THE WORTH OF YOUR MONEY WIEN
TRAvELLNG.-lf you are going to travel take your
wite-when you are in good spirits she will
double the delights of the refreshments and
when you cross and tired she will be handy to
fret at. If you forget to attend to your baggage
you can charge her with confusing YOU. If you
leave your slippers at the hote-your carefully
embroidered slippers which Crispin Charged YOU
more to make up than any seller of the article
ready made dare think of chargiug-it was looking
after her traps that caused your forgetfuness-
Then, when the trip is ended, if you need a new
loan to carry on the expenses of the war of life
you can blame her-a comfort of which wretchcd
bachelors, doing through all the fine scenery and
grumblng and smoking along all the rest of the
way, know nothing. Take your baby too. 1t is
rare sport to see him stow away twice as much as
you can eat yourself at the dinner table all at half
price, and eminenty refreshing to see his big ewes
drinking in all the glories of a thousand miles of
landscape-he, the precious baby, beac over all
roads and all steamboats, in the Onion. The Eric
Railroad always eXcepted-a dead-head. The rule
Is so universal that for all we get we must roundlv
pay, that am astounded-rememberng that under
eight or ten years old all children reckoned by
gentemanly conductors CLEANS Of sunshine, glo
rifyng their dusty seats, and more to be "charp-
ed" than many badges of the responsibility Of
their parents-that ever father goes roamino
