An Evening with 1ongrslIow.

The last reception at Miss Rausom's studio
was devoted to the poet Longfellow. Mr.. Je-
rome c. Burnett, of Indiana, read an essaywhich
WAS partly a review of Longfellow's poetical
works and partly prose poem in itself. Miss
Helen Beattic, young lady who is not only
finished olocutionst but who has an ex-
pressive face aud pleasing manners, reoted
"The Wreck of the Hesperus," and two other
selections. Mrs. Butler, of Providence, r. L.,
reclted "Sardanapalas" with such fine effect
as to elicit the warmest appreciation of those
present, and Mr. Charles II. Brainard rocited
Tho Builders" After these exercises, which
were short, an hour was pleasantly spent in
conversation, and thecOmpany separated well
satisfied with the evenings endowment.
