When Nilsson sings the " RondtneHe " or
s.Gron- Dio. raorir :" when one OF SaIiSate $
silyery cadences has spent its exquisite thrill
on his enaptured ear, he makes no lisS
about it, but retires with his new ochsnt,
like chicken with n crumb, to some qllet
corner of his soul, and there dlgestS II III
peace.
Such aesthetic approval, however, though
majestic, doubtless, and highly phllosophlr'
is still just little chilling to the party MANI!
commemorative artist. Glow, he may III
uuire. Sam I to know whether you are
pleased with my acting or singing unless !on
say so? And how, unless l KNOW lhls' am
I to gather courage for fresh cIloitS next
time?" And thus it were to he wished th;t'
appreciative people would recognize all >nrli
effort, when rightly directed. as sort OF
draft at sight on their kindly demonstration,
and nav it on demand. Of the methods AMI
the prospects of such higher aesthetic c,ll-
ture among our better classes as shall render
this payment more cheerful, honest, and dis
Greet, we hope to discourse again IN future.
For the present let us remember that good
artist has peculiar claims Oh Our sympathy
and gratitude, and like the OlimpE.n COLI
