The Mansoleum of Thorwaldsen.

In Copenhagen, nearly in the
centre Of the city, you will find a
large, very singular-looking build
ing, painted yellow with some black
fresccing, with a fiat roof, and no
arches or columns or ornaments of
any kind. It looks exactly like q
box. Yet its outlines are SO deli
cate and SO noble in their utter
simplicity, that it cannot be CONS
mon warerOom box; it must be q
shrine. And the monotony, the
gravity and mourning of this shrine
are so sublime, SO grand, so triums
phant, that it cannot be common
tomb; it must be q mausoleum.
And SO it is. 1t is the only mau-
soleum in the world. The day it
was finished all other sepulchral
monuments became mute, inadequate
to the purpose, and comparatively
insignificant. In the court is Albert
Thorwaldsen buried under a rose
bush, and the four wings of the
building comprise the court and
open into it through a number Of
large gates, there by making the
court the greatest hall in the builds
ing, containing all his works and
nothing else. Each group has a
hall, each statue room of its own,
where the rcsplcndent marble stands
in the background, set off by q wall
Of a calm, mild color, and flooded
by the light from the opposite
window. The long corridors con
tain different cast Of the different
statues, busts, bass>reliefs, and
through these halls crowds Of peo-
pie throng every day, looking, gaz-
ing, ana admiring, their souls bend
ing toward the beauty as the leaves
Of plant turn against the sun.
But is there any other mausoleum
in the world into which the hero's
deeds stand Oh his grave, rot writ
tel in verses or pictured in sym
pols, but i'll living presence, speaks
ing to mankind il the same manner
and with the same effect as the day
they were done, perpetual chal
lcnge to all that is mean and foul,
and an eternal source Of nobleness
and beauty? There is none.

How to be Happy.

Evidently Ariadne is not happy.
But who is : Nobody is happy
who is not conceitcd, 50 it cu>
ri2usly happens that only for i'm
perfect characters is reserved the
life of perfect enjoyment. There
is no content so all>embracing, so
peryading and invigorating as self
content. The philosophers hold
out other means Of happiness, but
they are moonshine to this. The
man whose bosom contains per>
petual principle Of self-esteem, pos
sesses a balm for every woe. The
blues that so easily beset the rest
Of humanity are unknown to him.
His ways arc ways of pleasantness.
The winds and he rains may blow
and dash against him the hurri>
cane may shake his window-shutters
and topplo over his chimneys, but
within all Is peace. BE conceited
and yoNwill be happy.-The Old
Cabinet, Scribncr's for July.

"MUsIC HATH CHARMS. Here
is a touchingly beautiful illustration
Of the power Of music, A New

approached the cell Of maniac,
who rushed for him as far as his
chains would allow, shouting, I'm
kill yon y 'I'II beat Your brains

moving the preacher began to sing
"Our Home in Heaven" First the
madman listened; then he stretched
himself out to the full length of his
chain. First one arm relaxed and
then the other. Tears moistened
his eyes. Then he coiIed up on
his bed Of rags as quiet as a
child. And when the hymn was
ended he looked up, saying, "AIore,

his strength gave way and then he

France, Notwithstanding the late
war, makes financial exhibit
rivaling that Of England. Her
revenue is the largest of any nation,
that Of Great Britain standing
second; OF Russia third, and of the
United States fourth. The debt Of
Great Britain is greater than that
of France, but her revenues are sc
well managed that her credit is
good, and she is now enabled almost
every year to make some small
reduction in the burden Of taxation.

Last year we opened our eyes and
mouths to marvel over the immen-
sity Of the California wheat crop,
and this year we are still further
astounded by the information that
the crop of 1874 will be more than
doubled. The area in cultivation
is upwards Of 100000 acres, 30O,-
900 acres more than last year, and
the yield is extraordinarily fine.
The total crop is estimated at a
minimum figure of 35,000,0 900 bush :
els, leaving 25,000,00O bushels for
export-nearly twice the greatest
amount that California has ever fur
nished for expectation, more than
all the rest Of the United States
exported last year, and twice as
much as Russia exported from her
great grain districts on the Danube.
California's S gold yield is more
triae compared with this golden
shower Of grain.

An 0Verstrain.

Memory is grand gift when properly
educated, but it should not be stimulated
more than any other part of the mind.
DIR. Richardson says: 81 knew an instance
in which child was blessed with .
marvellous gift of verbal memory. This
being his FORTE his teacher, who wished
every scholar to be remarkable for some
thing beyond other scholars, played on
his forte powerfully, and with wonder
full effect. BY constant cultivation Of
the one faculty, this marvellous boy could
learn off fifty lines of Paradise Lost, or
any other English book, at single read
ing, and conld repeat his lesson on the
spot without missing a word or emitting
a comma. But the result was this, that
when the remarkable boy was sent to a
university to learn profession, he was
beaten in the learning of detailed and
detached facts by every fellow-studeDt.
Seeing slowly but surely, where his weak
ness lay, this student ceased to call into
play his remarkable talent. 1t was a
terrible task; he accomplished it at last,
but never effectually. For long time
he made mistakes that were most annoy
ing; he was unable, for instance, to cast
up accurately any column of figures; he
forgot dates, he ran over or under i'm
portant appointments, misnamed authors
in speaking of works of art or letters;
and in reasoning, he would mix up two
or three subjects. 1t took him full ten
years to unlearn his wonderful technical
art
