ah, me! what skeletons dance behind the
scenes! When in our arrogant nineteenth
century hearts we shall have fully appre-
hended the truth that intellectual accumu-
lation is not moral attainment; that civ
ilization is not Christianity: that culture is
not character; that, however lit I'D by the
blazing chandeliers of science and culture
and art, which swing from our freScoed
ceilings in place of that single star of chiv-
airy which beamed down through the raft

Miss Cleveland concludes her book with
an intensely interesting essay on Joan of
Arc, evidently inspired by love for the
character of her subject. A fellow-feeling
makes one wOndrous kind, and Miss Cleve-
land herself was cast in that heroic mould
from which one would expect
JOAN OF ARC.
In describing her heroine, she saws:
We saw that shining face lifted to the
skies Of Domremy. We beheld that slight.
intrepid figure, mounted now upon a fiery
war-horSe, welding now glittering sword.
1t Is the little peasant maid who wears
that fifty pounds of FURNISHED steel with
such knightly grace. The head is with
out helmet and the raven ringlets float out
to the air; the face uncovered reveals the
same rapt countenance upon the battlefield
we saw beneath the tree within the door
yard. We all behold that gorgeous banner
OF white satin, strewn with the French
lilies, on which the figure of a conoueror
i'll glory shines above the words which

Lamartine saysOf Joan OF Arc: Every
thing in her life seems miraculous. and VET

herself" and yet should say least of all
in herself" Let us reject the miraculous.
For in her see no nature which l do no;
see in many a woman of to-day: but the
exercise of that nature we do not often see.
What then were the courses of nature
which in her could produce the expraordi-
nary? l reduce all the miracle and mar
vel and mystery of Joan's history to the ex-
traordinary development of one human
capacity-love; the extraordinary exercise
OF one human capacity-faith

proceed to correct.

Included in the item of $40 5l9.22, 1.-THE receipts
