About dozen years ago the collect

ing that some of his finest works were
mserably faded. This was notably
the case with The Sanctuary" a pic
ture of red deer that had Just crossed
lake and was emerging with the wa
ter dripping from it's fur. When this
was first exhibited at the Academy !
admired, among other details, the
sparkling brilliancy of the water drops,
and the general suggestion Of cool
freshness throughout the picture. At
the later exhibition all this had gone.
In naming this | ain not selecting an
exception, but typical example of

main with very little decay during
many generations. My opinion is that
the turpentine Of the medium is the
chief offender, and that the true artist
should discard it altogether as fitted
only for the work OF the house painter,
Of whom repid drying and tlatting are
demanded. Careful examination Of the
surface Of the works Of the older of
the old masters has led me TO doubt
whether they used turpentine at all,
and TO conclude that their medium ives
liusoed.oil pure and simple, used 50
freely that the drying Of their pictures
must have demanded days or weeks
ard studio free from dust. With
such medium every individual parti-
Gle OF the pigment matter is envelOped
and sealed in a curiously imperishable
transparent skin, which dries by gain
ing something-yiz., oxygen, and there
fore swells little in thus drying, there
by compacting itself and embracing
more firmly with loving aesthetic hug
the precious color particles that con-
stitute by their arrangement the art
lists pleasure giving legacy to his fell
low.creatures. Not so the turpentiue-
diluted medium. In this case half Of
the medium evaporates, leaving the
poor particles of pigment half naked to
their enemies. Some painters have
mixed varnishes, such as copal or mas
tic, with the oil medium, or have even
used these as the sole medium. The
result of this is peculiarly disastrous,
especially if the color is laid on thick
| ly, as is likely with such yiscous and
quick-drying medium. AS the solvent
Of the varnish eyapOrates the whole
contracts and leaves network Of
cracks or wrinkles, practically Destroy

1t is related that Senator Vance once
saved himself bad experience from
his well.known ability to tell a good
story. When he was a freshman in
the University Of North Carolina the
sophomores took him out one night to
give him the usual dose Of hazing.
They took him to the mouth Of a forty
foot dry well, and proposed to let him
down into it and leave him there for
the rest of the night. Vance was
frightened half out of his wits, and
begged like good fellow, but he soon
found no mercy would be shown him.
Just as they were about to lower him
into the black hole he exclaimed {;
" Hold on, boys, for moment, and |
will tell you a good story about this
sort Of business" Operations were
suspended, and Zeb. told his story.
When he concluded there was a howl
Of laughter, and q big East Tennessean
stepped out and said: We must not
haze this man. Any man who touches
him I'll stick my jack-knife into. a
fellow who can tell such story as
that, hanging over the mouth OF forty
foot we'll, hos good stuff in him, and
will be famous some time Senator
Vance himself says that from that night
everybody in the school was his friend,
and he never had any more trouble.
Said he: That incident made last
ing impression on my mind that often
in an emergency the ability to tell a
good joke was worth more than money,

1t may be said, with little or no
qualification, that all other European
naval powers followed in the first place
the example set by the late Emperor
Napoleon Ill.,, in ala Gloire," by
covering the whole Of the exposed part
of the war-ship's hull with armor-
plating. All the early iron-clads Of
Russia, Italy, Austria, and Germany
were protected from stem TO stern, and
from few feet below water to the up
per deck. England did the same in the
cases of few ships, although she be-
gan, as we saw before, with the " War
rior " type, in which the armor was
limited to the central part of the ship.
But the system Of completely covering
the exposed ship with armor has now
entirely and properly passed away
from European practice, and has been
succeeded by varied arrangements of
armor.
The importance Of giving effectual pro-
lection to the hull between wind and
water" as it is called (signifying from q
few feet below the water-line to few
feet above that line), has been steadily
recognized by Continental governments,

The LUmbermaR's Gazette mentions
three causes of the difficulty in ascer.
tanning the amount of standing pine
left in any particular numbering re-
! gion--e. g., ths United States census
for 1880 gave the amount then left in
Michigan as $4,000, 000, 900 feet, while
one class Of private estimates put the
amount at 10000, 600, 900, and another
ran it up to 80, 000, 100000. The rea.
sons given for these extraordinary discre-
pancies in the statements and estimates
are; First. The Spectator in pine lands
holding for a iise is interested in hay
ing the public believe that the amount
Of pine land left is less than it really
is, because this will enable him to get
better prices for any he may DO obliged
to sell. Second. Buyers wish it TO sp-
pear that there is plenty left, as this
will tend to lower prices. Third. Many
firms desire be credited with owning Q

Snake river, l. T., says: Zone Of
the wonders Of our great country is
Henry's lake, on the summit Of the
Rocky Mountains, near the line be-
tween Idaho and Montana, on the Tar

popular summer resort, and the soil
and climate are not unfavorable to the
prospect Of permanent settlement. The
lake is five miles wide and ten miles
long. Ii is the source Of the north

Closing scenes and

Speeches.
MONTPELIER, Nov. H.-The Legislature
completed its work and adjourned at 3
o'clock this morning.
One of the most interesting proceedings
of the night session was the rushing
through both houses of bill for better
scientific temperance instruction in the
public schools. In his veto of the former
act for that purpose, Governor Ormsbee
expressed his great regret that an act
having for its purpose an object and end
of great merit and applicable to subject
of unequaled public solicitude should be
so framed as to be obnoxious to well
founded principles of law, but believing it
to be so obnoxious, and being so advised
by the best authority at hand, my course
in the premises is plain and ineXorable
Section contemplates a summary hear
ing by a judge, without ordinary process
and apparently without jurisdiction. A
party alleged to have violated the statute
is entitled to jury trial, which
this act denies him, and there
is no provision for any record of
the process, the pleadings or the
proceedings. There is no clerk of the
court provided, but the Judge is to decide
the matter off hand, construe the law nc
cordlng To his best judgment, without re-
vision or right of appeal, and is to punish
dlsobedlencc of his own orders rs in cases
OF contempt. In II proceeding of contempt
there Is no limit on the amount of fine or
the Imprisonment which a judge may i'm
pose. This would be rather in accord
ance with oriental methods than with the
principles of constitutional government.
These considerations are of special weight
in view of the fact that the first and sec
ond sections are certainly susceptible of a
construction which would require the pu-
pills OF primary classes to be provided with
text books before they have mastered the
alphabet and that these text books should
be kept i'll their hands and in daily use
year after year in every grade of the
school system. The object of the bill is
