How deep and powerful the impression
WAS which his soul received from this emil
nent artist, is best seen in an obituary on
Paganini, in which, with glowing language,
he describes this rare genius, and calls him
without fear of contradiction, the monarch
of artists. ''-.-"
How highly interesting the journey must
have been which List some time afterward
made to Switzerland in company with
Z" George Sand" and Monsieur Pictet, the
amiable authorl The celebrated lady de-
scribes the pleasure which it gave her in
her " Letters of Traveller and Pictet's
" Journey to Chamounix" is little more
than an apotheosis of the young artist
Liszt himself speaks of these delightful
hours in his Years of . Pilgrim, those
musical productions of the Z" Chapelle de

It was the rising fame of Thalbere which
all at once put an end to this Charming

once said: "Thalberg is the first. but
there is but one Liszt.n
Thus, after long and sunny abode in
Venice, Florence, Rome. Naples, etc. Franz
List retired to the cool shades of the marx
of the Villa Maximiliana, near Lucca. And
where was his motherf She was far away
from her darling, and vet always near him
in her prayers for the welfare of his soul:
