Z THoRN's PATENT SKATEs.--Mr. W. J.
THORN Of Saccarappa, has made an improve
ment, for which every skater should feel
grateful We certainly thank him for IL in
behalf of those who are to be benefited, and
also for the gift of a pairof his five dollar
skates, which we will see are properly used.
We have been waiting for an opportunity to
try them Oh the ice, but must defer that, and
speak Of them now only from a mechanical
standpoint. f1a3
aEThese skates are entirely metallic except
the leathern straps. By a very ingenious ar
rangement the strap over the instep is dis
pensed with, and the skate is made last to the
heel of the boot by set screw on the back
side Of the heel, which holds it as firmly as
though screwed up in q vice. There is no
screw or point under the heel, so that the
heel sets fat and fair upon the metallic plate
Of the skate. The straps over the toe are
simple, easily replaced If necessary, and easily
fastened. No pressure is brought upon the
instep to stop the circulation of the blood
and thus induce coldness of the feet ~
Another improvement consists in metallic
braces which buckle up on each side Of the
leg of the boot, and thus strengthen the an
kle. Viewed as the result Of mechanical skill
they appear perfectly adapted to the purpose
intended. Practically we have no doubt they
will be found all that the inventor contempla-
ted. Mr.. Thorn sells his best article for So,
and considering the perfection and finish we
do not regard the price as extrayagant. NJ

Dropping In at the studio of HARRY BROWN
on Saturday, we we're much grati6ed In wit
Messing a superior picture which he had just
Anished. 1t is a sea view; the waves in a
high wind and under afoggy sky, breaking
against an iron,bound shore, and along a
sandy beach. The gloom of the sky, the
grandeur of the headlands veiledin mist and
shadow, the transparency and dash Of the bill
lows, as they break out from under the low
STOPPING clouds, charge along the rocks or
throw their spray into the air, and the CON
trast OF the smooth beach with its fringe o
brilliant colored sea weeds, and the green fore
ground with its knot OF wild flowers tremb-
ling IN the wind, are features of oursea-coast
scenery such as many of US have beheld, but
which few, If any, in our country;can represent
with such vigor aud truthfulness as oor talen.
ted townsman. Al
Whilst examining the painting the convjc-
lion came into our mind that we had perform
ed journeys as far as Boston to witness pieces
highly praised, bat not Of so much real merit
and this can be seen without money and with
out price. BuEhow many viii go to witness i
before IL is sent to Massachusetts, which will
be by the last of this week?
: And then we thought Of Simmons noble
statue of Gsn. Berry, now on free exhibition
at the City Hall; and the question came VI
have tenth part of those in our city who
3 ought, In soLe sort, 10 be able to appreciate
such things, been to see it? And we further
questioned-were this In Boston and it's mar
us pointed out, would not scores of our peo
pie go there to see 1t? Or, If The price of ad.
mission here were hfty cents or a dollar
would il not have more visitors than II now
has?
y But after all, the conviction came that on,
citizens are as ready to appreciate and sur.
tain talent as those of any place Of no create,
population; that superior talent must seel
large cities to be supported as it should be-
that all this was simply in the nature o

Russia and Poland.

The Emperor of Russia regards certain
Catholic institutions as dangerous, and the
lremonstranceo of the PoPE could not alter his
policy of severity towards them. In the late
rebellion many priests were believed to be Inc
innate with the leading insurgents. Many Of
these institutions have been centres of HOSTILE
ty to Russian rule. A large number Of the
smaller monasteries and converts in Poland
are to be suppressed, and an Imperial decree
has been issued to thatefect. All Catholic CON
vents and monasteries having less than eight
members must be closed up, and also those that
participated in the late Instruction Already
.7llmonasteries and A convents have been shut
up, and 80 others that favored the rebellion.
This Is most severe blow to ecclesiastical Or
CARNATIONS in Poland, which the Imperial
Government is anxious TO Russianize, 1t is
hard work to make the Poles forget their ma
tionality. TEAq70 5h3a8Ia
