Prof. Youmans says that the study of
dead languages has been the one pre-
eminent and historic failure OF the So
called liberal education. There is more
hatred Of it than of any other kind of
study-mathematics not accepted. He
regards Its failure as so notorious that he
cannot attribute it to any defects in the
methods Of teaching it. He denies that
any possible reform in the modes of
studying the dead languages can alter
their relations to modern thought. We
have to regard their educational failure
as a result of the progress Of the human
mind, aud therefore as ''a normal and
inevitable thing" They hold their po-
sition against the advancing knowledge
of the age Through the power of ira
dition, through the blind veneration of
things ancient, because they represent a
conventional culture, and are conserved
by old and wealthy institutions" There
is, besides, the Professor adds, q good
deal of money in the classics, which is
not to be overlooked when we wish to
account for the tenacity with which they
are maintained

The Ancient and Modern Jewels OF
Spain.


The piety of the faithful adorned in
the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries the
images and the Virgins in the cathedrals
Of Spain, says E Dia, with artistic and
precious jewels. Partly our own civil
discords, and partly our foreign wars,
the "alliance" with which the English
favored" us, and the days Of enlighten-
ment and independence caused those
precious possessions to disappear from
our cathedrals, and we find them now
and then In great sales in Paris, Vienna
and London. Wr. Wilkin, of Manches.
ter, has recently brought to Paris gems
Of the value Of 40, 600 francs which once
belonged to the cathedral Of Toledo.
They represent the gate Of Bethlehem,
and the Virgin, st. Joseph and Jesus are
surrounded with brilliants; above, the
Holy Spirit spreads out Its wings, and
with border of jewels, repre-
senting cornucopia and Corinthian
figures, Is Joined another Of rubies,
pearls and other precious stones.
On the reverse the same figures were re-
produced, and the centre was formed by
small relic representing Piety. Baron
Alphonse de Rothschild has also acquired
several precious pendants Of the six
teenth century. At Madrid Nine. Bauer
has obtained magnificent brooch made
of the Jewels of the Virgin del Pillar,
which were sold in order to continue the
building OF her temple. OF modern gems
we have during this year seen some very
precious ones, among them the sapphires
Of the Marchieness de la Laguna and the
branch of diamonds which shines among
the possessions Of the Lady de Bruguera,
branch which rises from the belt,
crosses the whole chest, and terminates
on tho shoulder. The Counts OF San.
tevenia have given wedding present to
their sister, the Lady de Serrano. q car
nation of sapphires and diamonds, re-
sembling the one given by the Empress
Eugenie to the daughter OF the Duke dc
