Of gorgeous taste il is. One painting
alone. Of "Nymphs and the Satyr" cost
$4,000. Other exquisite works Of art,

last sortie Of the defenders Of Paris during
the German siege Of II. The human 6g-
ures, the horses, the redoubts, the houses
and forests, the glorious Seine, the city in
the back ground, all in the highest style
Of art. II is painted by a French artist

the dear LORD gave me a precious mes
cage Of grace TO the congregation, whom, il
seems. had been separated from, two
weeks. instead of two days. At night an
excellent congregation assembled and we
had delightful "break" in 8 confessions
Of the bles,ed name of Jesus.
So passed this sort Of holiday for Us,
quite unlike any thing Of the kind we
have enjoyed for a long while. The LORD
saw we needed It and so gave it. Yet how
odd il seemed to me to be looking at

in the role Of sight-seer. But preached

"The Sorcerer," at the Academy Of Music,

law, or at least an injunction laid upon it,
BY the aroused and enraged friends of the
