About the year 1913 Cornelius Jansen, a
young Dutch painter, came over from his
native city Of Amsterdam, with the hope of
finding employment in England. He took
up bis residence in Blackfriars, London;
and, being really an able artist tyerv clear
and natural in his coloring,p say the con-
noisseurs, land equal TO Vandyck in all ex-
cept freedom of hand and grace" he soon
had as much work az be could do, in paint
ing portraits at FIVE broad pieces head. He
painted usually on small panels with black
draperies. Among his works that survive
are several portraits Of James l. aud his
children, and not a few of noDlemeu and la
dies of the courts of James and Charles l.
But one of his first works in England, if the
cOnnoisseurs are right in pronouncing il his
was a portrait of the scriveners son of
Broad.street, painted in 1918.
The portrait still exists, conveying a far
more life-like image of little Johnny Milton,
as he used to look in his neat lace frill and
with his black-braided dress fitting close
around his little chest and arms, than any of
the ideal portraits of the poetic child. The
face is, indeed, that of as nice boy as one
would wish TO see. The head, from the hair
being cut close all around il land here the
reader must supplement what hardly appears
in the engraving, and imagine the hair a
light auburn, and the complexion a delicate
pink or clear white and red), has look of
fine solidity, very different from those fam
tastic representations, all erial and wind
blown, offered as the heads of embryo
poets.
In fact, the portrait is that of a very
grave and intelligent little Puritan boy with
auburn hair. The prevailing expression in
the face is loveable seriousness; and in
lsoking at il, one can well fancy that those
lines from Paradise Regdined which the first
engraver ventured to inscribe under the por-
trait, were really written by the poet with
some reference to his own recollections of
himself as a child:
When was yet child, no childish play
To me was pleasing all my mind was set
Serious TO lean aId know. and thence tn do
What might be public good myself | thought
Hnrn To that nrn- hnr "a r,rlnr.,r ~ Ill h..AI.

A Lovers TOLLr.-TAe Moment of III.

"A LoNEKS pOLLH.-Ihe moment OF HiS
Pride.-A late writer says:
} believe there is no period of life as that
in which thriving lover leaves his mistress
after his first success. His Joy is more per-
feet than at the absolute moment of his own
eager vow, and her halt asserting bushes.
Then he is thinking mostly of her, and is in
certain degree embarrassed by the efforts
necessary for success. But when the
promise has once been given to him, and he
is able to escape into the domain of his own
heart, he is conqueror, who has mastered
half continent by his own strategy. It
never occurs to him--he hardly believes that
his success is no more than that which is the
ordinary lot of mortal man. 5
He never reflects that all the old married
fogies whom he knows and despises, have
just as much ground for pride, if such pride
were enduring; that every fat silent, dull,
somnolent old lady whom he sees and
quizzes has at some period been deemed as
worthy prize as his priceless galleon; and
so deemed by as bold a captor as himself.
Some one has said that every young mother,
when her first child is born, regards the
babe as the most wonderful production of
that description: which the world has yet
seen. And this, too, is tFue. But | doubt
whether that conviction il DO strong as the
conviction of the successful lover, that has
achieved triumph which should ennOble
him down to later generations.

But Mrs. Bader was not thus forgiYing she

A WoMAN's VIEW OF SECESSION. fol-
lowing is an extract of letter, purporting
to; come from a woman of Baltimore in the
Charleston Is. C.) Mercury, entitled "
hady's View Of eeoession': "Could YOU hear
the curses, not loud but Deep of the Minute
men; could you see the way they sa,ute the
Palmetto, and-cheer for your gallant little
State, even you, l say, would no longer con-
slider your Maryland sister as heather and
an alien. P has even tormented me into
working aPalmetto flag for the Reisters-
town Rifles. But above all things it would
do your heart good to see little DR.. H.
In all the South there is not a more red-hot
Southerner; fifty times day he declares that
Carolina is not only the most gallant of all
the States, but that in the whole wide world
there are no such chivalrous, noble men and
women, and that he will live and die e.with
her-that he will spend his last cent and his
last drop of blood in her defense. He has
actually hunted up the cavalry sword of his
grandfather Colonel John Eager Howard,
OF revolutionary memory which, he informs
the old gentleman (who smiles benignantly
upon him from his place over the mantel-
pieeel shall never be dishonored. Even your
outlawed pet Frank, has eschewed forever
his beloved cranberry pies, because some
one told him they came from the North.
