Mr.. Browning stands, with few rival:
in the past and none in the present, at the
head of what, in fault of better phrase,
may be called intellectual poetry. There
are poets who rank him in imaginative
lustre, there are more musical ninstrels.
there are-though these are few-war.
mer and more delicate colorists but for
clear, vigorous thinking, perfect sculpture
of forms embodying thoughts (sculpture:
too tinted with the flush of life, with veins
Of blue and red), for the utterance of the
right physiognomical word and phrase. he
has no superior since Shakespeare, Yet
intellectual as it is even to a Greek Sc.
verity,-beyond even Landor here.-it
would by no means express the charm of
his writings to style them philosophical.
No theory can quote him, nor is he at all
ethical His religious fervor shows in
points of white fire on every page, and yet
no work aims at moral lesson or object.
He writes neither fable nor aIlegory. The
world of men and women, with thier act
ual passions, hopes, and loves, and the
vast arenas for their play opened by these
as rivers cut their chan n ls,-these are
enough for him, His worship is for man !;
his faith must find its joy in divine Man.
The world OF forms, the city OF bodies, rep
resents to him the scattered rays of this
mysterious humanity and his art is not to
change them into any moral monotony,
but to cultivate and guard them in their
various vitality and meaning, and report
their dramatic interplay. To philosophy
and science all is unity; the poet is ere.
ator of variety out of this unity which
show Faraday but one element, Tyndal
one force; Hegel one idea, underlying all
actual or conceivable combinations. How
grandly he has created his forms may be
best learned by considering the fertility Of
his invention as displayed in all of his vol.

and originality Of his plots While

Nothing could be thought of more qu
aintly beautiful than the terraced walks,
the magnificent staircases, the lovely gar
dens with their fountains and their flowers,
that surrounded this castle.
With the warm inspiration of the
Duchess's lovely and life.giving presence,
Dunrobin seems to us like a beautiful
dream. And though the rose of England
is now faded, though leaf by leaf drop
ped from it IN that long and weary trial
of debility and sickness which must end
the most prosperous life, pet it is COM
foriing to think that the noblest and
sweetest part of what gave the charm there
is immortal.
Patient continuance in well-doing was
the great effort and end of her own life
and her husbands, And of all that they
possessed, this patient continuance is the
only thing that retains permanent value
in the eyes of God or man.

Lost ITarmontes.
BY MRS. OLIVE E. p. THOMAS.
One summer eve, in mood of strange unrest,
Within grand cathedral, quaint and lone
paused, to know If in the organs breast,
Dwelt not balm and blessing for my own.
No worshippers were there, their feet had
passed
From out the sauctity, and summer airs
From lifted easements DER the leaves were
cast,
ofopen books traced o er and o. er with prayers
And the red sunset round the altar stole,
And burned upon the golden pipes, that
leaned
Far up the arches leading heart and soul,
To music's home the land Of which we
dream.
said while fingers summoned from the keys
Soft tones, reverberating as they fell,
Here yet are hidden grander harmonies
Than ever woke within its proudest swell ~
I mused of present life, swift coming death;
OF Changeless love in Eden born, and then
My hands unwilling woke a chord, whose
breath
Was full and perfect like grand amen.
Oh, how 1t rent the shadows on my SOUL
Calming to solemn joy in each namelesspain,
Till "human brotherhood" the twilight stole
And kept amid its stars the glad refrain
I've sought the harmony full many time,
found within that Sabbath hour of prayer,
But like the voices of the better cline,
For which list in vain, 1t is not there.
No cunning hath my hand to bid recall
The rarest melody my ear has crossed
Twas only born to walk in memory's hall,
Beside the faces of the early lost.
Oh! We who mid the Earring scenes OF earth
Can find perfect rythm, and such there be,
Tho few aud far, and e'er angel birth.
Keep then thy fingers on the magic Key.
The chord is human love, oh lose it not.
For vanished once, no chance can e'er restore
Twill prove a tuneless reed to song forgot,
A broken Lutte to charm thee nevermore.
II faithful kept through life's appointed time
Nor ever won by syren arts astray.
Twill prove harp of gold JOY sublime,
bliss supernalin life's changeful way.
Lost harmonies Of earth How soon, how soon
The pure in heart beyond the valley dim,
Shall here rent chords all gathered up in tune,
The Diapason of Gods endless hymn.
