Dinner-TabIes.

Absence OF body-color is the greatest defect in
modern pottery, particularly that portion of it
used on the dinner-table. Go where we may,
let us be at home or abroad. the same dead
white is toUed against dead-whlt table-cloth; |;
if there is pattern on our plate, and on the
dishes before our eye, it is probably of a pale
green, or blue; or if red it IS in such small
masses as TO produce little or no effect. We 90
out, say to large London dinnerparty, where
our host has expended &l00 or fl20 on the SER
vice before us. 1t is rich in gliding, it bears
his Coat.ot-arms, it is boTdered with a brilliant
blue or green; yet what i The effect? We look
down or no the table, aud see nothing but dead
white surfaces-the white tahlecloth, the un-
contrasting silver. In tact, there is no effect at
all, except of a chill uniformity, unworthy of
an age pretending to the least cultivation in
matters Of taste. Our potters seemingly forget
that warm or hightoned colors are cardinal
necessity in the decorative arts OF Northern
climates
English architects are beginning to perceive
this truth by their revival of the ornamental
terra-cotta and fine red brick work OF the middle
ages. Observe how we'll these masses Of dark
red tone against our wntry skies; and in
summer how well they look amid the verdure of
our woods and lawns. Except for occasional
purposes white brick and large masses of white
stonework are as much out of keeping with
our climate as the GreciaI order of architecture.
Open portlCoes, ColonnadeS, root-lights, aud
white surfaces are unsuited to US. We want
solidity, shelter, warmth, and tones Of warmth
in coloring, in our buildings; and we Cannot
afford to lose sight OF the principle, so far as
century ago, Wedgwood deplored the necessity
he was under of changing the color of his
ordinary ware from fine body-color of pale
sulphur 10 dead white But the fashionable
world, just as it grew tired of Bath or Wey
mouth, Ranelagh or the Pantheon, had grown
tired of the cream color, and, with the caprice
natural to low state of education, vapid
accomplishments, misused wealth, and a sense
less and wearying pursuit of pleasure, clamored
for a change.
He tried to compromise the matter by intro
ducing what he called pearl white, that was
white slightly toned with pink, as the cream
color was white more or less toned with yellow;
but it was not well received. He had thus to
export his finest wares to the West Indies and
North America and adopt for his home trade a
pottery covered with dead white glaze; not so
white as that in use at present, but still low
toned compared with his richest examples of
cream color. Yet contrast the two the fine
sulphur color of Wedgewoods best days, with
a modern dinner service OF dead white, on which
the pattern is in some low shade of the secondary
and tertiary coloIs, as brown or green. In the
~ one case you see no effect at all but negative
unobtrusiveness; in the other O vivid conception
of fitness and beauty strikes the mind, and is
rsd by the eye of the beholder.- Once a

Gossip About the Beecher Family.

correspondent of a Western paper says:-
The other day, riding to Lake Mah0pac,
came epon man with familiar face. 1t was
abouttwo miles out of Peekskill, near the Hud-
son. The man was IN shirt sleeves, holding q
grubbmg hoe in his hand, and directing some
workmen at putting down draining tiles. He
had sun burnt skin, with sanguine expression
looking through il, a toleTably corpulent body
and pair of riding boots upon his legs. This
was Henry Ward Beecher, summerng on his
celebrated Westchester co. farm, place on the
top OF high, almost mountain landscape, which
was, few years back, stony, sterile spot. By
work and money, literally applied, he has made
1t both valuable and beautiful. His house, for
the present, is a small frame cabinet, chiefly
piazza, set far up lane, with prospect of green
field sloping down to the road and under a
large button wood tree, if i mistake not space
before the house, they have held two or three
family marriages. Mr.. Beecher enjoys life to
all appearances, as much as any living Ameri-
can. He began the study of horticulture aud
young preacher at Indianapolis. .-
INF. John Detrees told me the other day,
when was in his library, of BeecheI's early
advent as newspaper editor Defrees then
owned the Indianapolis State journal and
Beecher was young preacher, just come TO
town with new wife and not very brilliant
temporal prospects. His church had agreed to
pay him $1,000 year, but was unable to raise
1t promptly, so he eked out a little time by
writing and editing a farmers and gardeners
column for the journal. This column became
directly. so popular that Deirees started an ag-
of it.
at was at Indianapolis that Mrs. Stowe visited
her brother, and there, it is said, obtained the
name and suggestion OF Uncle Toms Cabin, ;
which she derived from venerable negro, once
