The DARLINGs.-The last chorus has died

ed. The last wall has ceased. 1t seems there
was only one entry of triplets, and North
Brookfield carried away the first premium.
Six months was the age of these "sharers,"
and their names were Horah Faith, Nellie
Hope and Hannah Charity-Coughlin. Faith
and Hope were lust as big as Charity. Chel-
sea took away the premium ON twins, and
Duyal was the name. The bandsomest girl
was Allie A. Stratton, of the Hub, twenty
months old, whose father lost both arms In
battle in 1864. Young Mcguire, also of Bos-
ton, "a broth of boy" was called handsom-
est Of the male juveniles. Somerville had
the "fatest" badly 1--WE quote report), and
Charleston the smallest, which Tor who p af-

A picture vastly better in an artistic sense
than either Bierstadt's or Fagnanfs, and in
fnitely more enjoyable is F. d. Willams's
'At Home," which Is also on exhibition at
DE Vries. 1t is an interior, painted with
Flemish faithfulness. ltrepresents the wood
house OF New England farmer, with all the
common, homely objects that belong to it;
the pump, the worn boards of the floor, the
heap of vegetables in corner, the piece of
dry Goldfish hanging against the wall, the cob
webbed roof, the doves upon the beams, the
lazy cat, thebarn- yard fowls peeking here and
there, and through the open door a glimpse
of yellow August fields, and a food of sun
shine streaming in through the dimness OF
the place and lighting into absolute splendor
the homely objects that it touches. 1t is
picture TO which no description can do JUS
ttice. An idyi on canvas, It's true charm lies
.s much in the fine poetic feeling which
preASaes through it, as in the artistic faith
