almost preternatural. 1t is not easy to
master this feeling and to refer such
work to the intellect alone for formal
CRITICISM. But even here it will bes,
the coolest scrutiny. 1t shows patient
thought, manual command, richness and
simplicity of minor forms, masculine
beauty, exquisite finish, and yet all
these things as servants of penetrating
mental vision, holding steadily before it
the living form of s'creative imagination
This image of our Lord is the embodi-
ment of manly beauty, yet strictly
Jewish in its type. And it is not little
singular that the artist is himself Jew
lone of that great race that has won
distinction in Fall the fields of human
achievement and given illustrious names
to every branch of art. ManifestIy he
has been possessed with the protoundest
sense of the earthly life of Jesus, with
its belief, its compassion and its lonely
sacrifice. 1t is this conception that lives
in his work and makes it so sweetly, yet
30 religiously impressive. It is not a
piece of art" for connoisseurs and
dilletanti. But men and women rever-
emily familiar with the imaginative
work of the worlds great masters, will
in looking at the marble bust, and
touched with it's human beauty, confess
an influence above the senses-the
presence of profound spiritual power
the highest and sincerest tribute to the
genius that produced it.

Remarkable Work of Art.
Baltimore Bulletin.

There is on exhibition at the store of
Mr.. Bandan, nearly opposite the Bulletin
Office, work of art of such striking
character that we should be doing in.
Justice to our readers if we did not ad-
wise them to go and see it. It's by q
young sculptor, Mr.. Ezekiel, Virgin
ian, who has studied in Berlin and alter
ward in Paris, where he won the prize of
Rome. 1t is simply a marble bust,
somewhat above life aize, of Jesus, the
Saviour, bound, for seourge and cruel
fxien! Even in this dreadful theme,
as the artist has conceived it, there is
nothing revolving, but everything to
stir profound compassion. Although
the breast is bound with cords and the
head dropped in physical exhaustion,
yet ones sense of this is completely
oyermastered by the spiritual power OF
the expression-rby the living face, with
itaforgetfulness Of personal pain, its calm,
unshaken faith; ito entire resignation
and its profound and OVERLOOKING pity
The great mass of modern sculpture is
merely decorative, and therefore depend
ent more upon lines than upon life
while even French plastic art, il common
with most of its current painting, hal
little to distinguish it except technical
accuracy, and frequent extravaganza
mitigated by high superficial! 6nish. II
this fashionable furniture there, is fine
dexterity, but no imagination, no cres
ton, no. power. Here, on the contrary
is simple block of marble, wrought u,
by sincere artist into life 80 human
may, SO supefhuman-that the contem
plation of it holds the gazer with q powe

An Omish Wedding.
Lancaster New Era.

Lancaster New Era.
Doubtless many of our readers ale
familiar with the customs and habits of
the religious sect known as the Omish,
but it is to be questioned if many of
them know how an Cmish wedding is
conducted. The Omish differ from the
Mennonites in their simplicity of dress
and being more strict in their discipline.
They also hold their religious meetings
in private houses. Their own ministers
perform the marriage ceremony, which
is seldom the case with the Mennonites.
A wedding>day among them ia an inn
portant event. All the relatives and
friends of the families assemble at an
early hour. A stranger to pass by and
see the yellow carriages in groups in q
field adjacent to the house, would be
awe.stlicken. On the arrival of the
guests, each one unhitches from the
carriage his own horse, and secures for
him place in the stable. The ceremony
begins at 8 a. m. The bride and groom,
with their attendants, occupy a room
and sit face to face-the men on one
side and the women on the other. The
remaining guests sit in other apartments
of the house. The service consists in
singing and preaching (all in Germany,
and when this is over, which lasts till
twelve o'clock, the couple to be married
advances to the preacher and the wedding
! ceremony is pronounced. Then follows
the dinner. In short time the tables
| are fitted up and bountifuily supplied
with roast turkey, beef and vegetables
To this all who can find room cit down
after which the tables are again supplied
with cake and wine, at which the young
people congregate aud spend an hous in
singing, when they partake of the deli
iescies spread before them. The Older
persons then follow and enjoy the good
things, which consumes considerable
time. .-...... ..- d. 81.
| At six o'clock a supper is spread
which remains on the table during thu
night. It is at this hour (six O'Clock
the festivities begin. All repair to che

Woman ia China.

The condition of woman in China is
most pitable suffering privation, con-
tempt, all kinds of misery and degrade
ton seize on her in her cradle and
accompany her pitilessly to her tomb.
Her, very birth in commonly regarded as
a humiliation and Disgrace to the family
An evident sign of the malediction OF
heaven. If she is not Immediately
sufocated she is looked upon and treated
asa creature intrinsically despicable, and
scarcely belonging to the human race.
This appears SO uncomfortable fact that
Panhou,pan, celebrated, thong woman:
among Chinese writers, endeavors in her
works to humiliate her own aex Eby re-
minding them constantly of the inferior
rank they occupy in the creation
"Wnen a SON is born" she says "he
sleeps on bed, he is clothed with silk
and plays with pearls; every one attends
to his princely cries. But when girl il
horn slo sleeps upon the ground, il
meanly wrapped up in q cloth, play
with a tile, and is incapable of acting
either virG.s 2usly or viciously. She ha
nothing to think Of but preparing food
making wine, and not vexing he
parents" Even after marriage her cas-
is not improved. According to the ex
pressions of an old Chinese writer, " tn
newly>married wife should be but
shadow and an echo in the house." Sh
has no right tc take her meals with he
husband nay, not even with her NAL
children; her duty is to serve them q
table, to stand by them in silence, hel
them to drink, and light their pipe
She must eat alone, and after they hav
done, and in corner; her food is scant
and coarse, and she would not dare
touch even what is left by her own SOD
It may be thought that this does not we
agree with the much-talked~of princip
of flial piety but it must not be o
gotten that in China woman counts IL
nothing; the law ignores her existence,
notices her merely to load her with fe
tiers, to complete her servitude. and
confirm her legal incapacity. Polygan
is allowed, and the heart-rending jes
ousies and quNrrels that thence enst
lead to numerous suicides.

The Water-Spider.

The insects that frequent the water
require predaeeous animals to keep
them within due limits as we'll as those
that inhabit the earth; and the water
spider is one of the most remarkable
upon whom that Office is devolved. To
this end her instinct instructs her to
fabricate askind of diving>bell in the DO.
som OF that element. She usually selects
still, water for this purpose. Her house
is an oval cocoon, filled with air and
lined with silk. from which the threads
issue in every direction, and are fastened
to the surrounding plants. In this COS
coon, which is opened below, she
watches for her prey, and even appears
to pass the winter, when she closes the
opening. It is most commonly, vet not
always, under water; but it's inhabitant
has filled it for her respiration. which
enables her to live. 10 it She conveys
the. sir to, it in the following manner:
She usually swfms on her back, when
her abdomen is enveloped in bubble of
air, and appears like a globe oil quick
silver. With this she enters her cocoon,
and, displacing an equal mass OF water,
again ascends for second lading, till
she has sufficiently filled her house with
it 20 as to expel all water. How these
little animals can envelop their abdos
men with an air-bubble, and retain it
till they enter their cells, il still one q
natures mysteries that has not been ex-
planned. It is wonderful provision
which enables All animal .bhat bTeathes
atmospheric air to ELL her honse with il
under water, and by some secret art &c
clothe her body with air as with gar.
ment, which she can put off when il
answers her purpose. Ihisia kind @
