JOHN JASON OWEN was born at Cole

and died in New York City, April Is,
1869, aged GO years.
DIR. Owen commenced his prepara-

to which place his parents had removed
After completing his collegiate course
he entered the Theological Seminary
at AndoveE and graduated in 1881.
The next year he took up his residence
i'll New York, and was connected with
the American Education Society,"
There he opened school for young
men, clerks, apprentices, journeymen,
and others, who were pious and think
ing of the ministry, but who, not being
able to support themselves did not wish
to abandon their pursuits until it could
be determined whether they had the re-
quisite talents to Justify their entering
upon Il course of study. Mr.. Owen pro-
vided room in his house, and heard such
rccitc, at such hours as would best suit
the convenience of the young men. Some
he heard at five o'clock in the morning and
some at seven in the evening. For years
he continued his instructions in this man.

ciety of Christian young men, as his pu-
pills were not able to make him pecuniary
remuneration. His school took the name
of "Cornelius Institute" after Rev. DR..
Cornelius, secretary of the American Ed
ucation Society. In this peculiar work
he found leisure for study, which he de-
voted to the investigation of the Greek
authors, that he was called to read with
his pupils. He began by making notes

AMERICAN ARTISTS IN ROME.-As Mr..
citizens, the following extract from a
letter written by lady who is travelling
in the Old World will be read with in
terest:
ST paid few visits 10 the studios last
week, and saw some very interesting
pictures, especially at Healey's studio.
There was portrait OF List, jus: being
boxed up, on the way to the Royal Ex-
hibition of London. It is very curious
picture, and was painted for Mr.. Long
fellow. 1t represents this famous vir-
tuosO and executant, as the poet first
saw him when he (Mr. Longfellow)
called with Mr.. Healey, one evening in
December, to present letter of intro
ddction. The two gentlemen had
entered the ante-room of Iiszt's apart
ments Id the Franciscan Convent, near
the Capitol, and Liszt came to them
through Il door at the end of the ante
ROBIN, holding a candlestiCk and a
lighted candle In his hand. So this fine
portrait represents him. The flame OF
the candle throws an aureole over the
famous artists head and face, and the
expression of the cOuntenance is inqui.
ring and almost defiant. The immense
lower jaw Is firmly set, but the upper
part OF the face Is kind and bright. 3aSs.i
"Mr. Healey showed ~ also pic
ture OF LonGfellow and his second
daughter, Edith. The poet is sitting in
a chair, one hand holding little parch-
ment bound book, and he is listening
to something the young girl is saying
to him. His daughter is about fifteen,
has a wealth of golden hair floating
about her Shoulders, which shows 70
fiue advantage over the green color of
her gown and the green ribbon that
binds back the hair from her girlish
brow.
"Mr. Hcaley is painting another ex I.
tremely interesting picture, the sketch
of which he kindly showed me. 1t is to
be called 'LongieIlow and some of the
American Artists in Rome
Church is seated on camp.stoOl
under the Arch of Titus, sketching;
Healey leans over his shoulder, and
McEntee points out to Healey what
Church is doing. Behind them, to the
right or the spectator, is Launt Thorn
son, walking forward as If OF the party,
but engaged in looking around the
ruins. AT the left side, in the distance,
are LonGfellow and Miss Longfellow,
walking towards the sketching party.
The bold ruins Ofthe Coliseum will lie
against the beautiful blue Roman sky
OF the background, and when the pic
ture is completed it must be success
full"

FISR MoNUMEST.-In missing the
Marble Works of Messrs. J. a Carroll
& BIO, on John street, between Main
and Market, day or Two since our at
tentfon was called to fine monument
designed to be Get up in cemetery at
Ve!lsvilIe, Ohio. This Chaste and beau
tiful work of art has been executed for
Mr. Wells, of that place. The design
is that known as the rustic, and has
been faithfully carried out. On large,
solid block OF marble, (but cut SO as to
represent several blocks united } rises a
sEafs several feet in height. This has
oeeh wrought into very perfect repre-
senlatlon OF maple wood-the bark and
sections Of broken branches lett adher-
ing, being especially true TO nature.
Around the shaft ivy is twining. which
adds materiAlly to the effect produced
on the mind Of the observer. Wedged in
between the blocks OF the base tho
representation of a copy OF tho Bi.
BILE has been introduced, with hand
above and to the right pointing 20 it.
Four handsome shields and four in
scriptions adorn the sides of the base
We do not remember to have ever seen
in this city finer piece ofmarble work
than the monument under cOnsidera-
ton, and we do not see any necessity
for sending away from home to procure
these adornments of the last resting
place OF departed ones, when we have ar
tisans in our midst who can produce
such splendid specimens of the sculp'
tors art.
Messrs. Carroll & Bro. are erecting a
