from the Cross, Martyrdom of the
Apostles, the Torture of the Inno-
cents-who had not heard of them,
and formed all the conception there
of possible to be derived from mere
description? They are all in high
colors and most of the subjects are
painful to contemplate. One de-
rives little satisfaction, unless he is
exceedingly pious, in looking at
pictures which depict physical and
mental agony, and exhibit cruel
barbarity to innocent saints and
hel lpless women and children. ex-
amined them with no kind of pleas
ure. The great skill OF the artists
in the horrible portrayals was lost
sight of in the reaction of feeling
against
THE REPULSIvE EXHIBITIONS.
In wandering through the picture
galleries of the Vatican, and gazing
at oil paintings on the walls and fres-
Goes on the ceiling, overhead, the
mind is not relieved bya single pic
ture of a secular or landscape subject.
Everything runs to Last Judgments,
transformations, Cruclfxions, De-
scents from the Cross, Martyrdoms
and Tortures of the Saints, Madon-
mas and Infant Saviors. These sub
jects seem to be very much over
done, and utterly weary the eyes and
attention of the visitor. Perhaps
this feeling might wear off if one
should revisit these galleries often
enough; but they create, on first
view, a certain feeling of repul-
sion which renders it difficult to re-
new their acquaintance, and keep
one away. While there is a great
variety in one sense, there Is too
much sameness in another-for the
general subject remains the same.
There are
MANY OTHER GREAT GALLERIES
of statuary and paintings in Rome.
Of course, none of them compare
with the Vatican; but they can hard
ly be excelled by the collections in
any other cities in Europe. will
mention the names merely of a few.
First is the Museum of the Lateran
belonging to the Lateran Church,
which was the Palace of the
Pope since the days of Consta-
tine. 1t contains some of the old
est pictures produced by the Chris
tain painters. The Quirinal palace,
where the King of Italy now resides,
contains fine collection of pictures
mostly on religious subjects. OF
what is called the private collections,
the largest and finest may be seen
in the Albani palace; in the Barber
ini palace; in the Borghese palace;
in the city, and the Villa palace be-
yond the walls; in the Colonna pal
ace; in the Corsini palace; in the
DOria- -Pamphili, III the Farnese, and
in the Spada palaces. There are
nearly 100 of these private cOllec-
tions of art. If they were in the
United States scattered among the
cities, the art loving public would
regard the Union as rich indeed in
ancient and modern sculpture, bas-
reliefs, mosaic, and treasures Of art
in marble; and in paintings and fres-
Goes, on all subjects, multitudes OF
which would be esteemed perfect
masterpieces. 1t is a thousand pit
les they could not be transferred tC
the cities of the United States, fol
the edifcation and instruction OI
the citizens in art. They could bt
spared from Italy's supelabundane'
of these things and scracely be miss
ed, so many other collections woulC
remain. -s-. J. NJ.

The attempt to describe critically
the statuary, paintings, and inscrip-
tions, bas-reliefs, frescoes, and mosa-
les 10 be seen in the Vatican galleries
in the Museum of the Capitol, and in
the great private galleries, is as
IMPOSSIBLE AN UNDERTAKING
as to describe all the faces, dresses,
and articles one may see at a State
Fair. A verbal description can at
best only convey a faint or vague
idea of the actual appearance of the
original to the mind of the absent
reader. Nothing but an inspection
by the eye itself is sufficient or salts
factory in this respect. To appreci-
ate, one must see for himself; for
descriptions by travellers can at best
give only the impressions of the
writers in language which never con-
yeys to the mind of the reader more
than faint outline of the picture or
image of the object seen in the mind
of the describer. This is in conse-
quence of the poverty of language,
which has not the power to transfer
Photographic copies or reflections of
faces on the brain of one person to
that of another. We can remember
the looks of a person, or his or her
air and style, but can never describe
them SO that others may see them as
We do. And the same difficulty ex-
lists in attempting to convey ones
notion of statue, gronp of figures
or bas-relief.
The marble statuary in the Vati-
can galleries alone will fill both sides
of hall mile long; the pictures
will fill both sides and ceiling of an
other hall more than a mile in length.
The descriptive catalogue of these
marbles and paintings, devoting only
a line or two to each, fills good
sized volume. To describe each OBJ.
ject of art in detail would fill more
books than are contained in consid.
cradle library.

that the pictures ara all modern, com

few of the marbles are so young as
sixteen or seventeen centuries old.

CometaryyInnuenee.'

1t has been suggested that the fiery,
untamed comet, seen nightly in the
northern heavens, is the cause of the
marriage fever which has broken out in
this city. The tail Of the comet il said
to be composed Of curious properties of
light and matter, which, when coming in
contact with our atmosphere, changes Il
in so strange a manner that the residents
on this orb are affected in most
mysterious way. The inhaling of the
atmosphere, changed as it is at present
with cometary matter, is said to produce
insanity and its sequence-love between
the bellies and beaux. Those who desire
to investigate the subject of love and
marriage, curiously and philosophically
are respectfully referred to perusal o
Burton's Anatomy of Melancholy, q
work containing vast amount of curious
lore, and one which is hardly ever read
except by scholarly people who have the
leisure to follow the author in his SOM
bre yet philosophic and laughable
musings. Indeed, Burton's great lit
erary work is of the same character as
those curious productions written by
Rabalsis, although not so Objectionable
in expression. But our Ledger Liner is
wandering off into literary pastures
which the average reader never
was known to visit; so to return
to our mutton. The aerial stranger
is very popular among young lovers at
present, and they never tire of heav-
emily hunt, but endure with astonishing
resignation the constantly recurring col
lisions consequent upon the sudden
movement Of their heads in opposite
directions. And so it is with the Mem
phis young people, who, with lorgnette
in hand, repair to the front porch to
gaze at the celestial vagabond which
now trails it through the northern sky.
Now and then the young fellow is sure
he sees it, and then in the excitement of
the moment he passes his arm around
his companions neck, and with his arm
under her chin raises her face toward
thatpart of the starry armament where
he thinks he has discovered the celestial
wanderer. Full of enthusiasm, the girl
remains gazing in this position long and
earnestly, the silver moonlight illumi-
mating her countenance with an angelic
charm, and suggesting the idea that she
herself might be a beautiful star,
moulded into human form and sent upon
the earth for the delectation of mankind.
But the hoarse voice of either the pater
or mater familias breaks the silence and
pierces the gloomy shadows Of the gar
den: Kate, it is ten o'clock" and the
charm is broken.

Jet il found in various districts of
England, notably near Whitby, in York
shire. Ii occurs also in Spain, in Sax
ony. and in the amber districts on the
Pr1ssian shore of the Baltic. Scientific
men, in the language of mineralogy, say
that let is a variety of coal; that is occurs
sometimes in elongated masses, some
times in the form Of branches, with a
woody structure; that its fracture is con-
ehoidal or shelly, its lustre brilliant and
resinous, and its color velvet black; that
it is about twenty per cent. heavier than
water; that it burns with a greenish
flame, and emits vituminous odor while
burning and leaves a yellowish ash.
But the Whitby folks can adduce many
reasons for thinking that jet, in some OF
ITS forms at any rate, must have been at
one time in a semi-liquid state, quite IN
like coal derived from a lineons origin.

test. BE will address his fellow citizens
throughout the city and county during
the campaign.
Two we'll known leaders of Memphis
society engaged in personal difficulty
in hack a few nights since, which re
suited in a little choking, and since in
passage of notes looking toward the
code duello. The matter is kept quiet
in dueling circles, but, like other things,
it will out. We understand that the diff
ficulty has not as yet been amicably
settled and that it may possibly result
in visit to Mississippi or Arkansas.
The correspondence will no doubt be
published in due time.
A newspaper astronomer in the Chi
cago Tribune asserts that the comet is
moving in parabolic curve. This is
not true. Comets travel on the curve
known as the ellipse, which is a figure
known in comic sections, and is formed
by the intersection Of plane passing
obliquely through the opposite sides of a
cone. A comet moves in elliptical or
bits having two foci, and describes equal
areas in equal times. A parabola is a
comic section formed by cutting cone
by plane parallel to one of its sides,
which is very different figure from the
ellipse. The comet will be nearest the
earth on the 22d, and then il will start
off into space, not to return, probably,
for centuries, fact which our readers
will remember until it again makes its
appearance.
We would like to inquire of Messrs.
Davis and Mulvihill when the Irish
Americans of Memphis became sup
porters of the civil rights bill? The
political firm of Winters, Davis, Mulvi-
hill & Co. cannot barter away their
ellow.countrymen Of the white race to
Shaw, Garrett, Lewis & Co. This latter
firm is out for civil rights on the plat
form of the Nashville negro convention,
and not one Of the nominees on the
Radical ticket will dare to address
negro meeting and state that he opposes
the passage of the civil rights bill.
Knowing the Irish citizens Of Memphis
as we do, it is but justice to them to as
sert that they will not support aay civil
rights candidate, but that they will vote
solid for the Bartlett nominees.
Those of our white fellow citizens who
intend voting the negro" ticket must
admire the political complexion of Vicks-
burg, Mississippi which city is thor
oughly under negro domination. The
city and county are represented in the
Legislature by FIVE ignorant negroes and
two white. men. The Sheriff, County
Treasurer, Circuit Clerk, Chancery
Clerk, Coroner, and Mayor are all nel
groes. In the Board of Supervisors
there are four negroes and one white
man, while the magistrates and consta-
bles are nearly all of shady color
Memphis has negro Wharfmaster, has
FIVE negro Councilmen and city gov

standing the fact that such government
was elected by independent white voters
who are not, never were, and never will
be Radicals.

Humanity.

Yesterday a man was found near the
Charleston depot in an insensible and
moribund condition. He was carried to
the Adams street station-house. Station.
house Master Mulroy hired wagon and
sent the dying man to the City Hospital
and gave the driver note 10 the steward
stating that the man was a Swiss, wa!
dying, and that a permit from the mas
ter-at-arms of the city would be fur
nished in the morning. The man was
taken out to the Hospital, but was re
fused admission because no permit was
forthcoming. The steward, or whatever
person was in charge of the Hospital,
sent the dying man back to the station
house, where be was searched, and in
his pocket was found permit from the
Mayor to 60 the City Hospital. He at
tempted to walk there, but fell on the
way. Red tapeism often leads to inhu-
mainly, and so in this instance the per
son in charge Of the Hospital should
have received the sick man on the
written statement of the statioR-house
keeper. There is such thing as obey
ing the letter of the law too literally,
and by so doing commit wrong against
society and humanity.
