The commemoration Of the fourth cen.
tury Of the birth of Michael Angelo, at
Florence, began on the 18th of Septem.
Der and lasted several days, Funds were
low, and therefore the affair had less OF

given at noon in the great hall Of the
Cirque Cent, Of the Palazzo Vecchio.
% the programme were two original
songs, by Angelo.
Alter the concert a procession, an
hour long. visited the Buonarotti House,
the house given by Angelo to his nephew,
and now dedicated as q museum, where
a bronze statue was unvailed; thence TO
Santa Croce, where the great artist ia
buried. Addresses. we're made by ALI.
ardi and Prof. Foelke, OF Stuttgart. Each
art school and society Of Germany had
made q spray Of oak leaves, in silver,
with its name upon it; these, Joined,
formed a colossal wreath, which was
placed on a black marble column, near
the tomb. Special exhibitions we're held
in the Buouarotti House and the Aca.

plentiful and there is an active demand
