Emma Abbott and M. GOunOd.

"Can see M. Gounod9" The ques-
toner was Emma Abbott, who, unac-
companied, and without letter of in
PRODUCTION, rupg the bell of nj. Gou-
mods residence, in London. The SER
want hand' d her card with blanks to
be filed up, on which was printed
"your name," residence" "by whom
introduced" etc. Miss Abbott handed
the card back to the servant.
"I don't want to sign that. I want
to see M. Gounod."
A sharp voice came from the head of
the stairs. 1t proceeded, from Nine. We'll
don, M. Gounod's self constituted guar
dian. "What do you want2"
Miss Abbott ran up the stairs. L
want to see M. Gounod and sing to him.
1 am an American girl"
You cannot sing, child" said Nine.
Weldon, "and you cannot see M. Gou-
nod"
"Ohl 1 can. 1 can sing the Jewel
Song in Faust Won't you please
hear me2"
81 say, child" repeated Nine. We'll
don, severely, "you cannot sing; there
is only one person living who can sing
that song"
"oh l'' said Miss Abbott, "you
mean Patti"
"Patti2" with shrug). "Patti is
nothing but music box-she can
sing"
"Then you mean Nilsson2"
Nilssonl No Her voice is worn
out long ago!"
"Who can it be, them" and Miss
Abbott's eyes expressed her curiosity.
"It is myself-Mme. Weldon"
"Oh, Mrs. Weldon, won't you please
sing it for me9 1 would so like to heal
you"
Nine. Weldon led the way to the
piano. She sung, and Miss Abbott ap
plauded.
"Now, Mrs. Weldon, you shall heal
me sing" And, suiting the action tc
the word, Miss Abbott begun the Jewe
Song. She had proceeded but a few
bars when Nine. Weldon tried to stof
her. "Tbere, there, child, stop; yor
cannot sing" Suddenly voice from
, the top of the next fight of stairs call
| ed /: "Weldon! Weldon who have yor
got therel" Before Nine. Weldon coplC
reply, Miss Abbott shot past her AM
: up the stairs. "Oh, M. Gounod, it il

: want to sing for you 2"
"She cannot sing, M. Gounod, and
, want her to GO away"
' She shall not go away" replied M
Gounod, "an4 she shall sing"
He then seated himself at the piano
and begun the accompaniment. III
played it as Miss Abbott had peve
heard it played. She began the song
Nine. Weldon again tried to stop her
but Gounod forbade her interrupting
He said: "Miss Abbott should no
, leave the house till she had sung tn
song" He again commenced the accom-
g paniment and told Miss Abbott to sing
Uttering an inward prayer, she obeyed
3 1t was a favorite opera and she threI
. into the song all her power and feeling
5 When she concluded her eyes were ful
l OF tears. Gounod rose from the plan
} and took her by both hands. He said
Miss Abbott, you have sung my SON

then took from drawer an elegant

AN ANCHOR. AN American back
woods minister having alluded to an
anchor in his discourse, described its
use in the following lucid manner: An
anchor is a large iron instrument that
sailors carry to sea with them, and when
storm arises they take it on shore and
fasten it to tree, and that holds the
ship till the storm blows over.

such cases, aud should be kept in every fani-

The Cost of Summering in Europe and
in America.

1t has frequently been ass rted that
family can spend the summer at less
expense in Europe than in one of our
American watering places, but we have
nowhere seen the exact data given on
which to make the comparison. A
friend, who has had much experience in
the matter, has kindly furnished the
requisite information, and we lay it be-
fore our readers.
The season during which it is q
luxury to be away from this city,
says the New York Sun, is usually from
the twentieth of June to the twentieth
of September. Some persons, indeed,
leave earlier and come back later, but
the three months embraced between the
dates specified are almost always regard
ei by those who can afford it as the
shortest period to which their absence
can be restricted. The great heats, such
NJ that through which we recently
pa Ged, begin toward the last of June,
recur at intervals during July and Au.
gust, aud do not finally cease till after
the September equinox. We may there.
fore consider the summer as of three
months duration.
With the modern facilities of steam
ships and railroads, great deal may be
very pleasantly done in these threc
months in the way of European trave
and sightseeing. Deducting ten days
for the voyage over and as many for th,
return, leaves two months and ten days
to be spent on land. This is long
enough for leisurely and comfortabl,
trip through Great britain, Germany
Switzerland and France, or, in the cast
OF old travellers, for sojourn at any spo
which may strike the fancy. The cos

wife, four children and one servant, viii

The latter day college student does
not mind so much failure to receive

This is an average of $340 per week,
or, excluding the ocean passages and
their cost, say 81, $50, of 1886 per week.
The figures are not estimated, but taken
from the note book of an actual traveller
They allow for irst-class railway fares,
the best hotels at all stopping places,
and, in the largo cities, for private sit.

wants, the family washing, and the ex-
penses OF sight seeing.
