AsTORY OFMURILLO's PUPIL.

Many years ago, on beautiful sum-,
mer morning, several young men who
emerged from the different streets pressed
their way towards the house of the cele-
brated painter, Murillo. They all ar
rived at the door at the same moment, ex-
changed salutations ina cordial manner,
and called each other by name. They
hurried up the fight of stairs and
reached the studio. The maestro had
not yet entered, and each artist ap-
preached his easel to see il the colors
were well dried.
By the holy st. james of Oompos-
tellap' exclaimed Isturez, which of
you remained last in the studio yester-
dayw wo,, ,.v. not v.t ,..ov.,.a from,

piled at the same time Fernan iez and
Cardova, or you would surely recol-
lect that we. all went home together"
'eThere is point beyond which for
bearance ceases to be virtue" contin-
ued Jsturez, evidently in bad humor.
Yesterday, before leaving the studio,
Econsumed an hour at least in cleaning
very carefully my palette and brushes,
and this morning ! find them dripping
with paint"
&C See therel lookl'' cried Carlos
&C there is another little face Just in the
corner of my picture, and it's by no
means bad one, either. Carajo! who
can it be that thus amuses himself every
morning with painting figure first upon
the wall and then upon the canvasT'
" Yesterday, Fernandez, there was
one Just above your easel"
g 1t must be Isturez; his palette is
proof positive against himp said Fer
nandez.

+" Do not swear" said Carlos, "such
face you never could have painted"
Be that as it may, Don Carlos,
have never yet painted any quite so in
different as yours"
And my brushes, too, are all moist ?
exclaimed Gonzalez. I" By the patror

DO you not think, with the creol

At these words Mendez approache
his easel. An exclamation Of astonisl

petrifed at the spectacle presented
his view. A beautiful Madonna's hea,

Ny soul to-day
Is far away,
Sailing the Vesuvian Bay;
Ny winged boat,
A bird afloat,
Swims round the purple peaks remote:-
Round purple peaks
1t sails and seeks
Blue inlets and their crystal creeks,
Where high rocks throw
Through deeps below,
Aduplicated golden glow.
Far, vague and dim
The mountains swim;
While on Vesuvius' misty brim,
With outstretched hands,
The gray smoke stands
O'erlooking the volcanic lands.
Here Ischia smiles
Ger liquid miles;
And yonder, bluest Of the isles,
Calm Capd waits;
Her sapphire gates
Beguiling to her bright estates.

Ny ripping skif
Float swift or slow from cliff to cliff;
With dreamful eyes
Ny spirit lies
Under the walls of paradise.
Under the walls
Where swells and falls
The bays deep breast at interyals
Atpeacs lie,
Blown softly by
A cloud upon this liquid sky.
The day, so mild,
Is heavens own child,
With earth and ocean reconciled-
The airs feel
Around me steal
Are murmming to the murmuring keel.
Over the rail
My hand trail
Within the shadow of the sail;
A joy intense,
The cooling sense
Glides down my drowsy Incidence.
With dreamful eyes
Ny spirit flies
Where summer sings and never dies;
O'erveiled with vines,
She glows and shines
Among her future oil and wines.
Her children, hid
The cliffs amid
Are gamboling with the gamboliDg kid;
Or down the walls,
With tipsy calls,
Laugh on the rocks like waterfalls.
The fishers child,
With tresses wild,
Unto the smooth, bright sand beguiled,
With glowing lips
Sings as she skips,
Or gazes at the far-off ships.
Yon deep bark goes
Where traffic flows,
From land of sun to lands Of SHOWS;
This happier one
Her course is run
From land of snow to lands Of sun.

To rise and dip,

BY THOMAS BUCHANAN READ.


I'VE reprint DRIFTINe, by T. Buchanan Read,
for the benefit of many who, no doubt, will be
glad to get q complete copy to ornament scrap
book. Aside from the merits Of the poem itself,
the remembrance OF its author, who, in 1887, came
to Cincinnati in hat-boat and whose life has been
50 intimately associated wi h the literary and art
history Of the " Queen City," adds an interest and
charm which would make even less meritorious
poetry enjoyed. From the poem one would almost
Imagine that the musical arrangement OF words
and the happy description of the Bay of Naples
were the spontaneous dictation of Erato, and were
transferred to paper at the time the author was
drifting in his winged boat because the artist
generally porrays that which he Is beholding, and
Drifting Is nothing less than picture, colored
by all the most delicate word-shades which Lam
guage admits. The stanza commanding
Yon deep bark goes" ETC.,
shows, however, that Mr.. Read had a shuddering
thought Of winter, and the Islands OF SHOWS" which
seems unnatural TO a i" day 90 mild where "sum-
mer sings and never dies" But this Is well ex-
planned By the circumstances under which 1t was
written; an incident In the history Of the poem,
probably unknown to many of our readers.
Lats one evening in December, 1888, Mr.. Read
and his brother artist, Mr.. John r. TAFT, were
caught out in heavy snow-storm, and instead of
going home went to Mr.. Reads studio on Chestnut
street, Philadelphia. While enjoying the warmth
Of an open fire, Mr.. Read got out his writing-desk
and wrote this beautiful lyric.-S.1

1t was night, and the studio of Mu-
rillo, the celebrated painter of Seville,
which during the day presented such
scene of mirth and activity, had become
silent and solitary as the grave. A sin

Bile table in the center, and near it stood
boy, whose pale complexion accorded
well with the gloomy darkness in which
he was enveloped, and whose large black
eyes sparkled in the obscurity like lust
rous brilliants. He was leaning upon
an easel, in graceful posture, still and
unmovable, and plunged in the pro-
foundest reflection. Without his OBJ
serving it, the door opened gently, and

The Storm, i'm Toronto.
THREE INCHES THICK-THE DARE
4 e

HAILSTONES THREE INCHES THICR-THE DARh-
NESS OF NIGHT AT MIDDAY.
The city Of Toronto and vicinity, says the
Mail, OF that city, never saw storm Ike
that experienced on Sunday. The morning
opened brilliantly, but at noon cloud the
size of mans hand indicated that trouble
was brewing. At l O'Clock the rumbing
OF thunder was beard, and at 3 O'Clock rain
began to fall.
Within quarter of an hour after the first
drops had fallen the sewers were flushed.
culverts were choked with rubbish ana ceaa
leaves, roadWays assumed the appearance OF
rivers, and sidewalks in some places becom-
ing submerged. During the time that the
rain continued there was q darkness; 1t was
relieved by flashes OF lightning, which &C.
Cured so rapidly, one after the other, that
the thunder may be said 10 have been
almost continuous. At hall-past the
scene suddenly changed. A doWn-pour
OF broken ice commenced: during
its continuance it was unsafe for
any one to remain in the streets; and while
windows aud skylights We're breaking, IN
all directions it was anything but plea
SAINT to remain indoors, for Jumps OF ice
the size OF hens eggs and splinters OF
glass when flying into room at Intervals
made it comfortable for neither the eyes
nor the face. The hailstones were OF a
remarkable size, and they fell with such
force that they rebounQed to consider
able height. One stone which was found
in the east end OF the city was about
ten inches in circumference. and the pc
cularities noticed about others were that
some were perfectly round, ana some had
the appearance Of onions cut in halves.
the LAYERS or skins peculiar to onions and
no other vegetable being all marked upon
the hailstone. Fortunately the ice-storm
did not last longer than ten or fifteen min
utes, and when it ceased the heavy rain re-
sumed, and the streets, which had been
given very wintry appearance, became
rivers again. AS soon as it was safe for
human being to appear in the open air the
sufferers from cellar-flooding might have
been seen wading up to their knees in water,
broomsticks in hand, endeavoring to make
a passage-way for the water into the sewers.
The Globe says the damages caused by the
storm in the vicinity can be no less than a
quarter OF million Of dollars.

THE shirts manifest themselves unbidden
nv her, and, while they do not particularly
frichren, prove nevertheless source OF
great annoyance 10 her and her husband.
The furniture is hauled about the mouse,
the bed on which they sleep is tilted. and
thousand other mischievous pranks are
played by them, greatly to their mutual an
noyahce.
At first the husband was Mortified by these
nightly yisitations, but he soon came TO re-
card their visits as matter OF course, al
though bis dislike to them constantly IN
creased.
The spirit that causes the greatest disturb
ance is that of young man who was ms
rival for the hand OF his wife, and which
insists on their separating, having eommun-
Gated to the medium the fact that it will
never give either Of them peace or quiet
until they do so.
The gentleman is a respectable citizen and
his wife most estimable woman, and they
had kept the entire matter secret, hoping
that the ANNOYANCE would cease, but the
spirit in question becomes more violent each
night, and he and his wife have mutually
agreed to live apart, for awhile at least.
