Monday evening, will afford our citizens
an opportunity to show of what stuff their
patriotism is made The concert is bound
TO be success any wsy-the ladies' know

the larger number Of them, have pledged
themselves to purchase tickets will the
men of Rutland county be surpassed by
the ladies The object is one that appeals
TO all of US. BY unforeseen circumstances
Vermont Is deprived of her proper repre-
sentaton at the centennial, but our wives
and daughters are determined to place
themselves with their sisters of the other
states, and, il possible, in the van. Men
of Rutland county, will you aid them
Now is the opportunity. Let patriotism
and pleasure unite in making the prone
nads concert the event of Rutland.

which makes the strong man weak and the
| wise man foolish and the mild man desper-
| ate-whose power in human history, ethe-
| real and evanescent as it is, has been
among its mightiest, and still remains go.
| Perhaps it occurred to this mind 30 accus-
toned to mediate upon the great forces of
nature, that here was one OF the greatest
of them. The environment of this smiling
beauty, which at first seems unintelligible,
accords well enough with such conjec-
ture. If this were not its meaning, why
aid he project this face against back
ground of moving waters, upheaved rocks
and sky from which tempest is just
clearing away =? Why does he set her 80 in
the heart of nature, unless he reckons this
smile of woman among its elemental forces?
This may seem fanciful; but what but fancy
shall interpret fancy And If this be
fancifu what will you say to the reyeries
of Patey concerning the Mona Lisa =
"Hsre is the head upon which all the ends
of the world have come, and the eyelds are
little weary. She is older than the rocks
among which she sits like the vampire
she has been dead many times, and learned
the secrets of the grave, and as
Leda she was the mother of Helen of Troy
and as Saint Anne, the mother OF Mary
and all this has been to her but as the
sound of Tyres and flutes, and lives only in
the delicacy with which it has moulded the
changing lineaments and tnged the eye
lids and the hands" The thought of Pater
is that the Mona Lisa was meant to sym
bolize in painting the old fancy of per-
petual lile-or the more modern idea of
humanity as wrought upon and summing
up in itself all modes of thought and life.
For the later facts of Leonardo history,
related by Prof. Torrey, including his con
test with Michel Augel) in the painting of
the walls of the Council House of Flor
ence, and to the summing up of the char
acter of the many-sided man who has been
called "the master of all arts and sciences
and the fullest man in all directions that
ever,lived" we have no space. The lecture
closed with quotation from sonnet of
LeOnardo's-for he was poet withal-
ending as follows
nv Will I'VE wept at having-wouldst thou MI
The measure, Reader, OF happy man,
Good for thyself and pleasant to thy friend,
Wish always power to do sweet buys WILL
The lecture occupied an hour and a half;
but it seemed short. Largely, from the
necessity of the case, compilation of
facts noted Ivy the historians and biograph-
ers of Leonardo, to whom full credit was
given, the facts and incidents were SO skill
fully arranged, and graced with 50 many
touches of Prof. Torrey's wide and hne
scholarship, that it had the freshness and
interest Of wholly new and original
sketch. 1t was listened to with close and
absorbed interest from first t. last, and
