the oldest clergymen of seven different
religious denominations as It's trustees,
giving them power to appoint as many
matrons-one from each denomination
for its internal supervision, but he
was afraid of one of that number.
remarked: Mr.. Stewart, | have
often wondered what was to become of
yorr great mercantile interests when
Won pass away; for no one who had the
means to carry on such a business
would be foolish enough to invest it IN
dry goods in these days" "Oh," said
he, my business does not depend on
any one man; 1t depends upon Il
principle: to buy rs cheap as | can and
to sell as cheap as | can, and let the
rest take care Of itself"
In reply to the inquiry Of another
fellow-passenger, the propriety of which
was more than questionable, he very
quietly said My ambition has been
to sell one hundred thousand dollars
worth of goods at retail in one day in
my uptown store, but | never could so
beyond seventy-five thousand"
In a conversation with him one day
in his counting-room, he gave me, in
a half hour, a synopsis Of his whole
business career. One or two anecdotes
will bear repeating. Said he, When [
was In the Cd store on the other side
of Broadway, | was owing one silk firm
more than was convenient for me to
pay, and l wanted more goods. As
was thinking over the matter, who
should appear but Mr.. D., one of that
firm. In moment | decided what to
do. Good morning, Mr.. D., said [.

you, Mr.. Stewart" he replied; do you
want any more goods? l hope you
do. He did not tell me whether the
funds he was to check against were in
bank or only in Imagination.
a certain kind of wide stuff goods
had become very popular for ladies'
use, and been very largely imported by
the dealers. They cost about ST. cents
per yard, and he was selling them at
one dollar; but, as the market was
full, sales were dull. He at once threw
his into aution, greatly to the dismay
of other holders, who were compelled
to follow suit. The price ran down to
fifty cents. Mr.. Stewart purchased all
that were offered, and took them to his
store; he selected the best colors and
Put up their price to paying figures !;
then he sent the refuse colors again TO

Our Progress in Fine Arts.
From Harpers' Magazine.

from HarleF> Magazine.
Looking back through the hundred
years Of our existence as an independ-
ent nation, We see a steady and health
full growth Of art IN all sections of the
country. Year by year the number Of
American artists has increased with
the diffusion Of culture among the
people; art societies are springing up
in all parts of the country; exhibitions
worthy Of the Old World are held in
cities where fifty years ago there was
scarcely a break in the primeyaI forest.
Europe sends Us yearly an accession Of
artists, who become American, as Cop
ley, West, and Leslie became English
painters. Schools of art spread culture
and knowledge all over the land Mas
sachusetts has made drawing part of
her system Of common school educa-
ton with admirable results. The art
school connected with the Cooper Tn
ion, in this city, has also done great ser
vice in the way Of elementary training
in drawing, painting, WOOd-engraving,
etc. the work begun in the American
Institute of Architects awakens a hope
that another generation will see Il vast
improvement in the architecture Of our
public and private buildings. As wealth
and culture increase, the fine arts will
find increasing support, and the coming
century will witness a development in
the sculpture, painting, and architec-
ture of this country as marvellous as It's
progress has been in the mechanical
and industrial arts.

1866, went to Missouri to look after
some business, leaving his wife and
two children behind. He went to New
Orleans from St. Louis, but being
fieeced on the boat by gamblers, re

at his trade for two years. In the
meantime he had written to his wife
to let her know that he was alive. but
