Examples OF ProdigiOus Memory.

A conductor must have q prodigious
musical memory if he can, as Herr
Richter usually does, conduct such q
score by heart, never forgetting to
beckon to any instrument ut the very
second wanted 1 say a prodigious
musical memory, because the faculty
of remembering is by no means gen
eral, but q special one. One man may,
as Richter for instance, know n number
of scores by heart, another may be able
to keep an incredible number OF figures
in his remembrance, and not be able to
retain the smallest musical motif. The
Emperor Napoleon ILL.,, who never for
got man he had once spoken to, could
so little remember musical theme that
you might have played the same thing
twice over to him and given it two diff
fercnt names, and he never would have
known it. An example of the most as
founding memory Is the winner of the
National Chess Tournament, Mr.. Zuck-
ertort. He is cabablc not only of play
ing game of chess by heart, |. c.,
without ever looking at his board, but
being told his adversary's move, in
stantly replying with his countcrmove
and Keeping the position, however al
tered, in his head; but further, he
played sixteen games at the same time
in the same way, that is to say: before
each of sixteen tables sat player with
n board, and they informed him after
each other of their respective moves;
he replied, and never COMPOUNDED one
position with another, one game with
another. never made n false move, but
twice detected, where on purpose false
moves were made to test him, the wrong
direction. He performed an especially
curious feat in the house of friend
where there was whist party, playing
a game of chess by heart with some one
in the adjoining room, and when the
cards for whist was dealt, he looked
once through his cards then put them
away, and each time his turn came he
mentioned the card he wished to play,
all the while continuing his chess game,
and never keeping either his chess or
his whist partner waiting one minute
for the necessary move.-Icn,ple Bar.

anus, and perhaps his little children,
whom thou didst tend. And how didst
thou escape? Thy name, clover Of

thou vast perhaps too obscure n victim;
none cared to ask thee of thy faith. and
thou vast sent homeless and fricndless
forth, yet not before leaving this stone

Simple memorials Of conjugal affection

Here Is the royalty of ruin; naught

Alone these columns face the fiery sun,
Alone they watch beneath the midnight stars.
Forests have sprung to life In colder chimes,
Grown stalwart nourshed many savage
brood,
Ripcncd 20 grccn age. fallen TO decay.
Since this gray grove OF marble voiceless
stood
Not voiceless once, when, like u rainbow wool
Yelling the aZnrc OF the Persian sky,
Curtains of crimson, violet and gold
In folds of priceless texture hung on hight
And what have sun ana shadow left TO us2
What glorious picture in this marble frame
Ever, ms soundlcss centuries roll by,
Gives this lone mount its proudest dearest
famcY
The scupturcd legend on yOn polished cln
Has lost its meaning. Persia, gray and old,
Upon her bed of roses sleeps away
The ages, all her tales of triumph told.
But here Queen Esther stood; and still the
World,
In vision rapt, behods that peerless face,
when, with a smile which won throne, she
gave
Joy to her king ana freedom to her race.
