RAPHAEL In LEGEND.

There is pretty legend connect
ed with the composition of the Sis
tine Madonna. Raphael, so the
story goes, was one time painting
an alta-piece, which was, for the
nonce, yelled from the curious gaze
by green curtains while the paint
was in process of drying. The ar
fist, weary with his work, had fallen
asleep before the closed hangings,
but though his body slumbered, his
wondrous mind still wandered
through the realms of fancy, and as
he lay in sleep he saw the curtains
open, and standing between them,
surrounded by myriads of cherubim,
u glorious vision of the Madonna
and Child. For moment only the
apparition lasted, and then the pain
ter awoke to find the curtains closed
before the alta-piece. Next day he
received an order to paint Madon-
ma and Child for the Sistine Chapel,
introducing Pope st. Sixtus. Rap
hazel still haunted by the remem-
brance of his dream, resolved tc
paint what he had seen. He sketch
ed the Madonna surrounded by
angel heads, with the green curtains
drawn back on both sides. st.
Sixtus knelt down in alteration, his
tiara resting on the alta ledge. St
Barbara occupied the other side Of
the painting. The picture was com
plete, the vision was there, and the
requirements of the order fulfilled
Still something was wanting. The
bare ledge troubled the artists eye
till one day, going to his studio, he
saw two boys leaning on the side
looking intently at his work. He
seized the happy moment and fixet
them on his canvass as the adorins
cherubim.- German letter in AL

HOW STEVENS BICYCLE RIDE WAS IN
TeRRUPTED.

Calcutta, Aug. 8.-Mr. Stevens,
an American gentleman who is at
tempting to travel around the world
on bicycle, has arrived in India,
and has published an interesting
account of his adventures in Afghan
istan. Finding that the Russians
would not allow him to carry out
his original plan of proceeding by
Merv to the Oxus, he applied to Sir
West Ridgeway for permission to
join the camp of the Boundary Com
mission, with a view of finding his
way thence to India. Sir West
Ridgeway replied that the plan was
impracticable, Thereupon Mr..
Stevens went from Meshed south
ward to Brian, where he succeeded
in crossing the Afghan frontier and
reaching Farrah. Thence he hoped
to go to Quetta by way of Candahar,
but the Governor detained him and
eventually sent him to Herat. He
was kept some days outside Herat
and was then sent under escort to
the Persian frontier. The attempt
to ride across Afghanistan was thus
bafiled. Mr.. Stevens proposes to
wheel himself to Lahore and to Cal
cutta and then go by sea TO Canton,
to ride to Northern China on his
bicycle, and finally to take ship fol

THE NEW HEBRIDES QUESTION.

One good result likely to flow
from the unexpected change in the
political situation of Europe, is that
France will feel more disposed to
come to some amicable arrangement
with Britain respecting the New
Hebrides question, and matters
connected Herewith. So long as
she kept angling for an alliance
with Russia, and perceived the pros
pect of Britain being embroiled in a
Russian war, her rulers were evil
IDENTIFY prepared to take full advan-
tage of their position, and do their
utmost to exact from Britain a con-
cession obnoxious to colonial senti-
ment. But by this time France
must have discovered that in trust
ing the Muscovite she was leaning
on very unreliable support, and
will now be DESTROYS of re-establish-
ing cordial relations with Britain.
For sake of Germany's connivance
at her open disregard of the Berlin
Treaty, and her aggressive designs
upon the Balkan Peninsula, Russia
has manifestly sold France; and the
idea of an alliance of the Western
nations to counterfeit one existing
among the Eastern nations OF
Europe, is therefore once more to
the front. This will account for
the announcement made the other
night in the House of Commons by
Mr.. Stanhope that he had strong
hopes of settlement of the New
Hebrides question favorable to the
colonies being arrived at with
France at an early date. 1t is only
few days ago that the Premier Of
France was quite supercilious ovel
this question, and seemed determine
ed to irritate the colonies by CURLY
intimating that the sending of crimi
nails to the Pacific would be CONT
nued until the French terms were
accepted. This has the effect o.
making the colonies think of retala
tive measures such as France coulC
not afford to disregard; and events
have since happened to make hel
reconsider her position. The oper
advocacy in Bismarck's organ of the
expcdiency of allowing Russia to in
tervene in Bulgaria, and advance
on Constantinople, has opened the
eyes of France to the truth that sht
cannot trust Russia, and canno
afford to quarrel with Britain or he.
colonies. Hence, as our cable in
forms us, the Secretary of State TO-
the Colonies had stated that TIT
. British Government are pressing thu
French Ministry to abstain from de
porting criminals to the Pacific
This is an unmistakable indication
of change having come over thu
spirit of the French rulers, and tina
the negotiations between the tw!
Governments have assumed friend
ly tone. We may therefore expec
before long to hear that the dispute
over the New Hebrides has beef
amicably settled, and that, in re
: spect of the Balkan question, Franc
has resolved henceforth to act ii
concert with Britain. = Aucklan'

In Favor of the Darwin Theory.

\ Washington street orthOpedIc artist,
speaking with me to-day about trJsses and

to him a few days ago by prominent Chi

TO sec about truss for another person. In
the course of the conversation the fact had
been commented upon that hernia was not,
properly speaking, a rupture at al. When
ever there is a weakness in the muscles Of the
lower abdomen, and an interstice occurs, even
three-quarters of an inch in diameter, the
peritoneum, or sack which contains the mites

little bv little the intestines follow, making,
