THE ORIGIN AL SHYL0CK.

A correspondent Of the Jewish
Chronicle calls attention to the fact
that the original of Shakespeare's
Shylock was a Christian, and not q
Jew. He quotes from the 1lth book
of Gregorio Leti's Biography OF
Sixtus V. in proof OF this. A Roman
named Sechi, heard that
Admiral Francis Blake had conquer
ed San Domingo, and communicated
the news to q Jewish merchant
named Ceneda. The latter was so
confident in the falseness OF the news
that, after repeated protestations, he
said, 81 bet q pound of my flesh that
the report is untrue" Sand l lay q
thousand scudi against il" rejoined
the Christian, who caused a bond TO
be drawn up to the effect that in case
the report should prove untrue, then
the Christian merchant, Signor Paul
M. Sechi, is bound TO pay the Jewish
merchant the sum OF 1000 scudi ;
and, on the other har d, if the truth
of this news be confirmed, the Chris
tian merchant, Signor Paul NJ. SeChi,
is justified and empowered to cut
with his own hands, with q we'll
sharpened knife, a pound OF the
Jews fair flesh, of that part of the
body it might please him. When
the news proved true, the Christian
insisted on his bond; but the Cover
nor. having got wind OF the affair,
reported it to the Pope, vino con-
demned both Jew and Christian to
the galleys, from which they could
only be rsnsomed by paying fine ol
1000 scudi to the hospitsl of Sixtine
Bridge.

ENGRAVING.

"Line'' engraving is of the highest
order. All great'engravings are done
in ''lirep-simply' straight lines.
Next comes "llne' and "stipple- !"
t'Stipple'' means dots-smau dos ike
this -. :. ---. -. These
small dots are used to tighten up the
high parts OF the face or drapery. 1t
is very hard TO engraye q face in lines,
simply, and only. master engrayers
have ever undertaken it. Tue masters
understand and Practise both "iine'
and 'sstipple.'s Claude Mellan en-
graved, in 100, fall head of Christ
with one unbroken. line. This line
commenced. at the apex of the nose
and wound out and out like watch
spring, until Tit ended in the bor-
der OF the picture. Mezzotint engray-
ings are produced thus: The steel
of copper is made rough ike 6ne
sand-paper. To produce soft effect
this rough surface is scraped off If
you want a white place or high ligain
ir your engraving, scrape the surface
smooth, then the. ink will not touch it.
If you want faint color, scfape off a
little. Such engrayiDgs look like
autographs. Etching is adapted TO
homely and familiar sketches. Al
most all the great painters we're etcn-
ers. Etching is done thus: The
copper or steel plate is heated and
covered with black varnish. The en-
grayer then scratches eff this varnish
with sharp needles, working on the
surface as he would on paper with 4
pencil. Nitric acid is then poured
over the plate, and it eats away at the
steel or copper wherever the needle
has scraped off the vanish When
the varnish is removed with spirits
of turpentine, the engraving is seen
IN sunken lines on the plate.

and child, ho plunged bravely into
the river and swan to the boat. His
course wss traced in the water by the
blood from his lacerated shoulder,
but he saved the woman and the child.
MIR. Thornhill's informant said that
Colonel Utter would not speak of
the matter because as he once said, it
made.him mad to think there were
men on earth such Internal towards
as not to be willing to risk their own
lives to save Il woman and child from
such death.
Douty Utter has long been dead.
A series of misfortunes, incurred prin.
cipally by going security, well nigh
ruined him, and drove him from pol
itics His great brow was overtask-
ed it softened and he died almost
an imbecile. His faults were few, his
virtues many. If he, and such as he,
are not Of the Kingdom OF Heaven,
there is but little hope for mankind
in general.

THE KINGS MISTAKE.

n number of politicians, all of whom
were seeking office under the govern
ment, were seated under q tavern
porch, when an old topper named Joel
d., a person who was very loquacious
when corned, but exactly the oppo-
site when sober, said that he would
tell him a story. They told him to
fire away" whereupon he spoke as
follows: GA certain kiDg-I don't
recollect his name--had philosopher
upon whose Judgment he always de-
pended. Now it happened one day
that the king took it into his head to
90 hunting, and summoned his mobiles,
and making the necessary prepara-
tions, he summoned the philosopher
and asked him if it would rain. The
philosopher told him it would not, and
they started. While journeying
along, they met countryman mount
ed on a jackass
"He advised them to return, for,
said he 1t will certainly rain.' They
smiled contemptuously upon him, and
then passed on. Before they had
gone many miles, however, they had
reason to regret not having taken the
rustlc's advice, as a shower coming
up drenched them to the skin When
they had returned to the palace, he
reprimanded the philosopher severely
"'I met countryman,' said he, and
he knows a great deal more than you
He told me it would ram, whereas you
told me it would not The king then
gave him his walking papers and sent
for the countryman, who soon made
his appearance.
"'Tell me- said the king, how you
knew it would rain.' i didn't know,
said the rustic my jackass told me
so.' 'And how, pray, did he tell you p
asked the king. BY pricking up his
ears, your Majesty said the rustic
"The king sent the rustic away and
procuring the jackass of him, he plac-
ed him-the iackass-in the office the
philosopher filed
"And here,' observed Joel, looking
very wise, lis where the king made a
great mistake.' elbow SO ?" inquired
the auditors. "Why ever since that
time said Joel, with grin on his
phiz, Every jackass wants office"

BOSTON'S BIG JUBILEE.

Boston is already getting ready for
the construction OF her mammoth
building for the Worlds Jubilee of
next summer. The ground plan OF
the building will be a parallelogram
1924 feet in length. by 422l feet In
width, measuring 347 800 feet square
in area, or a trIfle less than eight
acres, being 322 feet longer, and l22
feet wider than the Coliseum of 1869,
and containing more than double the
area of that immense structure.
Throughout the space, not single
post, pillar, or support OF any kind
will obstruct the view from end to
end. The four principal entrances
in the centres Of the sides snd ends,
will be inscribed with the names OF
the four great continents, and be ap-
propriately decorated with flags,
national emblems, etc. Above each
will rise an elegant pavilion 12O feet
high, while similar pavilions, OF less
hight, will be built at each OF the
four Corners of the structure, giving
beauty and symmetry to the whole
Besides the four main or principal
entrances named, there will be on
each side four, and on each end two,
minor entrances appropriately deco
rated. Each of these will be sur
mounted by tower sixly-eight feet
in height. A "mOnetoy,' sixteen
feet high, will run the entire length
of the roof, affording ample ventil-
alton. At each end will rise splen-
did tower PIG feet high, while the
central tower will reach the enor-
nous height of 240 feet, from the sum-
nit OF which will float the banner OF
universal peace above the standards
of all the nations of the earth. The
seating capacity OF the building VIII
be about as follows, the figures given
being rather below the numbers that
could actually be accommodated !:
Audience, $1,000; chorus, 10000;
orchestra, 1000; giving total OF
over 10000 persons gathered under
one roof.
