The value Of Pain,inrr.

Can any picture, either of the cabinet,
or kitcat, or ten-acre kind, ever be worth
100000 or $200,0002 There is one
clsiming to be Virgin and Child, by
Raphael, in London, for which the owner
asks that sum. 1t is now hung up in the
National gallery-last year it was shown
in the Louvre. 1t was given by the ex-
King of Naples to person who had been
of service to him. AS to the question
with which we started, we cannot help
thinking that 100000 is too much for
either private or public buyer to pay
for picture by anybody. But then we
might say the same thing in the pur-
chase Of diamonds. In a certain sense
everything is worth what it will fetch.
But if money is to be expended literally
on art, for the soul of us wa cannot see
the advantage to be derived from giving
for a picture by Il dead artist money
enough to endow an academy of art, or
to furnish, to some extent, an interesting
and instructive gallery. Such things as
pictures are rich or rare as fancy rates
them" but, regarding the matter with
utilitarian eyes, we think it better to
breed up new painters than thus to honor
an old one

New ork cor, of the Boston Post.l %,
Not long since, at the little church
around the corner, the church of the
transfguration, the only daughter of
Lester Wallack was duly made Mrs.
Arthur Sewell Not without difficulty,
however; the bride is quite young, CON
sidered pretty, and all the world ln
New York; knows she has peculiarities
peculiar her own. During the solem-
mites of bridal ceremony it was sup
posed she would forego the ways and
manners that have made her conspieu-
GUS in her fathers theater, and in public
generally. Unfounded suppositionI The
church was well filed The bridal cor
tege arrived, passed up the long covered
passage to the vestibule, halted, and no
peal Of organ fell on Florence's ear.
What" screamed the bride, with a
church full of people in front aud a
crowd Of guests pressing in behind, No
music" ! won't be married without
music" Several ladies here filed the
open door behind the bridal party
The ushers we're sent flying after

turned upon the crowd, motioning them
back. She cried You can't come in
here now, till ! pass into church. Keep
the door, somebody" Her father tried
in vain to calm her. Her proposed hus-
band ventured word, but she shut him
up summarily. No organist was found
the invited guests outside the chapel
door we're clamorous, and the disap-
pointed damsel reluctantly went up the
aisle and was married. As the benedie.
ton was pronounced, she commenced
an animated argument with the happy
Sewell. As she passed out Of the church,
half way down the aisle she spied Tom
Baker, the leader Of the orchestra at
Wallacks, and sung out: Here, what's
the reason had no musie3 Uhabash-
ed, the gallant Baker replied why
did ut you let me know; IA had the
whole orchestra here. I've seen blush
ing brides, fearful brides, agitated brides,
but Il Miss Wallack had been getting
married every day for FIVE years She
couldn't have been a more selfpossessed
and easy acting bride than she proved
herself

purchase tickets to the ball given in
honor of your arrival in Philadelphia, l
was refused the same for no other rea-
son than because Of my complexion. |
cannot believe, representing as You do
an empire which embraces within its
limits men Of many different races, that
this narrow and ilibersl act of caste
and prejudice can in any way receive
your sanction or approval.
| attribute it rather 70 that hunky
spirit in certain poor-souled republican
Americans, who while they are ever so
ready to faEh upoR the great, are also
ever ready TO insult the humble and
friendless.
Believing that your spirit is like the
aspirations Of your mighty country, cos
mopolitan, am satisfied that you ap-
prove of no such contemplate act Of
some impoverished spirits around you.
Denied access 10 your presence, /
venture TO thus pay you my respects,
and will add that, though Grand Duke,

can than those Americans who have, in
my person, insulted a man or account
Of the accident Of his complexion. The

Paying for Marriages.

Mr.. Grant, who has given US history
of English newspapers, tells very good
story of the origin and custom of
charging for the insertion of marriage
announcements. At first these we're
published freely, as they still are by
many provincial papers. But in the
early days of the London Times it was
the custom in announcing the marriage
TO state the amount of the brides dow
ry--920, 900 or whatever the amount hap
pened to be; and in looking through the
ladies column one morning, Mr.. Walter
threw out the suggestion that if man
married all this money he might GER
tainly pay trlhing percentage to the
printer for acquainting the world with
the fact These marriage fees would
form nice little pocket money for me,
my dear" added Mrs. Walter, and as a
joke her husband agreed to try the ex-
pertinent. The charge at first was but
a trihe, and the annual amount proba-
bly, not much. But Mrs. Walter at her
death passed this prescriptive right of
hers to her daughter, and when, few
years ago, the right was re-purchssed by
the present proprietor, it was assessed at
from $4,000 to 10000 year.

This wine 10 prepared to take the place Of
W hiskey and other spirits known to be mi ade up
of Fusil Oil aud other deleterious articles. The
Wine of Life is distilled with great care, espeo-
tally for those who require healthy stimulant,
an d for the use of Medical Men and Nurses 10
the sick room, in place of the villsinOus Brandy,
Whiskey, and other Liquors now in use, and so
often depended upon. In fact, it is q constant
complaint of Physicians in this country, that Is
10 impossible to procure Brandy, Whiskey and
Wine for their patients. We ask the Medi-
cal faculty and the public TO give Warmers Vim
um Vita or Wine Of Life trial, and We ask
chemists and physicians to analyxe 1t, then speak
of it according TO it's merits, compare 1T with
Whiskey, Brandy, and other such articles, and
see the difference If they find the Wine of Life
iS pure and wholesome, and the other Liquors
poisonous, (Which they oertsinly will do,) then
they morally bound to prescribe and recon-
mend the Wine of Life to their patients and
friends as the best stimulant and tonic in use,
an 4 as a valuable substitute for Whiskey and
Brandy but should they find it not pure and
what the proprietors claim for it, let them pub
licy denounce it. 1t Is the Physicians duty to
learn and find out which is the most wholesome
sti timulant for hispatients, and to do so he must
examine andlook into the quality of each article,
and learn for himself if the Wine Of Life has any
peculiar merits to warrant its general use. The
proprietors claim the Wine of Life TO be more
wholesome and far superior and cheaper than
whiskey or brandy, or, in fact, any other article
in common use, and ought TO be used in every
family. Everybody should give it trial. 1t is
q new thing, only been in about one year,y e.
