The GaInut of Art.

y
The Chicago sRepaldStca1s's art critic thus
discourses upon art and the arts
- The term art, in its eomprehensiye sense,
includes all that pleases, as distinguished
from science, which includes all that in
structs, and as distinguished from industry
which sustains. Art may be said to begin
in cookery, the poetry ofthe gastric nerve,
the lowest and most ordinary of the arts,
which pleases through the palate, a sort of
pleasure of which the lower animals are
capable. Next, probably, to cookery, is
dress, or ornament, which reaches the eye
To this art savages aspire, and as all man.
kind advance in civilization they improve
in the art, the difference being that savages
prefer all ornament and no. dress, while
saints and sages prefer all dress and no
ornament. One of the next arts in
dancing, the poetry of motion. Among
all races their dancing illustrates their
character That of the American Indian
is monotonous and sullen, like his life. The
Negroes is enthusiastic and jolly, like his
disposition. The English dances are proud
and cold. The French are amatory and
sensual. The German are thorough and
intense, like themselves. ,..f.,- .....
After or along with dancing comes mu-

pleasure, which may now appeal to the
martial courage of the soldier and stir the
coward into hero, and anon may kindle
the sIumbering faith of the troubled saint,
soothe the melancholy of the disappointed
lover, or express, in mighty harmonies and
dlscords, the varied emotions of great
dramas chapter in life. Next to music
are those arts which appeal to the eye
architecture, or the poetry of building !;
sculpture, or the poetry of form painting,
or the poetry of color, with its kindred and
minor arts of drawing, engraving and pho
Biography, which are the magic of light and
shade. As the eye is the most intellectual
of all the senses, the next ascending art,
after those which appeal to the vision, are
those which appeal to the mind, viz, adj
dress-the magic OF tact or personal
presence; acting-the magic of stage );
eloquence, the poetry of the forum, the
senate, and the pulpit; opera-comb ining
the drama and music and finally, poetry
itself in all its various forms, the highest
inspiration and expression of all the other
arts. i-..-..,
In some of the instances we have speci-
fed, the arts we have named border on the
Industrial or useful, but we refer to them
only In in so far as, without discarding
utility, they aim only to please. It is
common error to suppose that the useful
arts, so called, are intrinsieally more impor-
tant than those which please. The object
of the useful arts is merely to sustain life
as the means of enjoyment, while the fine
arts yield enjoyment in and of themselves.
Agriculture, mechanics, and other arts will
sustain people so as to make it possible
for them to obtain happiness from other
sources. Hence the fine arts confer happi-
ness, which is the chief end of life, while
the useful arts only confer the means of
happiness. As the end is above the means,
so are the fine arts above the useful.

Ana Extraordinary Storm In
Oneida County, N. ".

The Utica Observer gives an almost in
credible account of a storm of rain and
hail in the towns of Steuben, Remsen and
Trenton, Oneida county, ON Friday last
In the suddenness and force of its burst,
the storm was unparalleled. " 1t poured
out it's fury IN torrents of rain for two
hours, and then the hail for another hour
The clouds seemed to break and pour out
their accumulated waters, which, in their
course through fields and woods bore
everything before them. One witness
says he saw mass of water, like wall,
four feet in height, passing down through
a meadow, bearing cows, sheep, out
houses, fences and trees in q confused
mass In another field, where there is
no running water ordinarily, the water
became thirteen feet deep in less than an
houri The hail then came in it's fury,
stripping the trees of their foliage and
small limbs and grinding the young vege-
tation to atoms. Even the next day the
hail lay upon the fields some three feet
deep, az, the O6serDer insists, eaan be estab-
lished by the most reliable testimony The
waters of the upper Mohawk, opposite
Steuben rose seven feet in forty minutes.
At Remsen the water running down the
streams did most of the damage In few
find their dwellings surrounded and filling
with water. On. the main streets of the
village, it was two feet deep. In one in
stance, a garden, earth, vegetation and all
were swept away leaving nothing but the
bare rock. AT Trenton, the first notice
was the rush Of waters and the accumula-
ton of food wood down the Cincinnati
creek. The waters rose five feet in less
than an hour, washing gardens, streets and
meadows and most of this hour the sun
was shining AT Owens cheese factory,
two miles above Trenton, the first notice
of the flood was given by about two feet
of water filling the establishment with
mud and food wood Several COWS were 4
drowned or killed, and about a mile of
fence washed away The hailstones are
represented as large as small hens eggs,
din some places they battered shingles
from the roofs of buildings. ~.
