The following amendment TO article three OF the
bill proposed by the Committee on the Organization
OF Asace and Lorraine was accepted by the
Reichsrath:-[Arlicle of the bill was published
in last Wednesdays HERALD.-ED.l
Until the constitution OF the empire viii come into
force IN Alsace and Lorraine the Emperor cannot
prOmugate new laws ana levy taxes i'll those pro-
vinces without the consent OF the Relchsrath. The
orders and DEGREES or the Emperor, In order to be
valid, must be countersigned by the Chancellor Of
the Empire.
Deputy Lamey, from whom this amendment ema.
nated said that article OF the bill gave to the gov.
eminent unlimited authority to issue laws and de-
crees according to Its own convenience. He there
fore demanded that financial measures, at least,
should not be carried without the consent OF the
Reichsrath.
After the passage OF the amendment Prince Bis
marck made a lengthy and powerful speech. In
the OF his he said the task he under
took when he became Minister, to establish the
empire, was nearly accomplished. His health was
bad and MS personal wish to retire from active
duty. He remained only as an advocate for the
complete restoration the provinces Of Alsace and
Lorraine to the Fatherand. He complained
OF the lack OF confidence shown BY Parliament.
Unless the amendments 1t had made to the bill now
before 1t were expunged he would withdraw the
measure and let the Emperor appoint responsible
Minister in his place.
vote was taken and the bill was sent back to the
committee for revision.

FIRES IN THE WOODS. -Thousands of acres
OF valuable woodlands to the north of us, and
on Long Island and in Southern Jersey, have
within the last few days been laid waste by
fire. These fires are, no doubt, mainly due to
sparks from locomotives falling among and
igniting the dry leaves which cover the ground
in the woods, and the work OF destruction to
valuable timber thus effected is increasing
from year to year, and It is high time for a
general convention of the owners of such pro-
perry to consider the ways and means for

production Of art, and to sternly refuse recog-
nition TO meretrcious works. 1t stands 40 an
authority before the people. to use its judg-
ment with strict impartiality In the selection
of works for exhibition, never allowing friend
ship or enmity to interfere with what true
artist must regard as sacred duty. An art
academy exhibition should be Q school Of
taste, with none but worthy objects on
view; else 1t fails in one Of the principal
objects of Its being. Every picture and
every statue ought to be . lesson of
beauty, the revelation Of some truth. Tho
fact Of . picture appearing In the
Academy should be q guarantee Of its
exceptional worth and proof-mark that 1t
was above the standard Of mediocrity. A
good example Is offered by tho Royal Acad-
envy in London Of the influence which may be
acquired by the strict exclusion Of bad
worko from exhibition, as the nero fact Of
work being admitted to exhibition increases
its value and is accepted as proof Of
merit. In the present exhibition Of the Ma
tional Academy Of Design the eye is continu-
ally offended by the presence of pictures COM
posed in violation of all rules of art-bad In
drawing, wretched in color, and possessing no
merits whatever that would entitle them to con-
sideration. The collection presents the appear
ance Of having been gathered In haste, with
out discrimination, for the purpose of sale,
rather than the deliberate selection by re-
sponsible artists of works for exhibition.
There is an auction room look about the Ma
tonal Academy which takes much from the
value Of the exhibition. Is it too much to ask
that gentlemen desiring to display their talent
In the production of crude sketches, impossi-
BILE landscapes and paintings Of msnstrous
shapes that were never seen by mortal eye,
would open an exhibition of their own, for
which We will suggest the appropriate title of
exhibition Of Curiosities of Art, and allow
VI the pleasure Of contemplating small col
lection Of good works? If the directors Of the
Academy would act vigorously In this matter
and exclude the rubbish they would be con-
ferring . boon on the lovers of art and q
benefit upon themselves. The public do
not demand that there shall be
large collection of Indifferent pictures,
but that those exhibited shall be. good. This
most needful reform would have the best effect,
both on the public and the artists. It would
stop much of the careless work in which some
Of the younger men indulge, and would raise
considerably the tone Of the National
Academy. The art-loving public would also
be able to interest themselves in the success Of
the exhibition with more confidence than at
present, while the influence of the reforms In
spreading juster notions Of art among the
people would be immense, and until purer
and more correct art feeling is created we
shall never have really good school Of art
