Failure That Teaches.

From the Contempory Rev1eWJ
 In art, as in other and greater matters, it is only failure that teaches. No one who can go on quite bravely and sincerely making mess after mess from nature but comes to the time when, he does not quite know how it is, he makes messes no longer. Somehow from the failure grows up the fruit. re- member Burne-Jones saying to me, some years ago, on this subject, apropos of the de signing and arranging of drapery, that he had tried to do it vainly for nearly two years, day after day, till one morning the sun shone, the earth cracked the flowers bloomed, and he could design drapery forever. This is very much the experience of all genuine art workers. t'I can't do figures" used to say the irrational members of my drawing club, s'and so won't try" as if 'sdoing figures" was God-sent gift that came down from heaven in a basket. It is this shivering on the brink of any little deeper water than or dinary which prevents progress. Bad swim me-s in their depth can always manage to keep up an appearance if they leave one toe on the ground, but will never learn to swim. Let them founder about a little in deep water, and get it down their throat and up their nost-ils, and after certain time of spluttering and gasping and striking out wildly with both arms they will probably learn to take care of themselves. The right frame of mind for an ordinary student when he sits down to reproduce a bit of nature is not far removed from terror-not very differ ent from what our imperfect swimmer might feel if suddenly flung into deep water. Let him nevertheless take heart; he is travelling the road that every artist in the world has travelled before him, for there is that grand compensating law that the greater the native genius the further removed is the goal of at tainment. The best painter is, as a rule, more dissatisfied with his works than the worst. Painting was never easy yet except to those who were incapable.

Mozart.


 Mozart made as pianist chiefly, the little money which sparingly came to his pocket, while he had trouble to earn anything with his compositions, which, moreover, he gave away for nothing. It is the same in our own days. RubiDstein, who told me many years ago that he should give up playing and only 'soil paper" has to this day to play in order to make money. Mozart played once at one of those numerous little courts which then existed, every Archbishop and every Chur- turst having his palace and employees, off cials and band. He wanted to travel to Paris, and of course money was needed. He complains that they presented him with two swords, with snuff boxes, and kisses. "The money of the fermiers generaux," his father writes, ''goes to Lucretias who don't stab themselves" Instead of money he received g watch, and he writes to his father: "I have no money for the journey, and this is the fifth watch I have received. I have a good mind to get two watch pockets made, and to have watch, with long chain to it, hanging out of each pocket so that they should give me no more watches" In 8 similar manner Mme. Patti told me once when informed her that it was on the tapis to give her by subscription a golden laurel crown. "What," she exclaimed, "another laurel crownI That is the forty-third, then Pray tell them would by long way prefer a diamond bracelet" Poor Mozart would have preferred cash. He was not born with grand soprano voice; he was not ready with his roulades to tickle the ear of opera goers; he was only composer of immortal works, sacred and operatic, vocal and instru- mental, which, after his death, have formed the study and admiration of generations; but then he would have had to be dead in order to have what to live on. His father preached to him perpetually about the necessity of making money, and not to give hundreds of lessons for nothing, which is very kind, but very stupid. Mozart replied that he thought 80 long as he was well he was quite uncon- cerned, because happiness was merely imagin- ation. This is an idea which seems much nearer truth than one might think, because if

phone or telegraph or both. Church and postoffice are near at hand. The main build ings are commodious and substantial, and are heated by steam. The laboratory is good one. If, as the commission has report ed, there is need, on account of the growth of the school, for yet another building, the present ones will still all be necessary and useful.
 Directly across the road from the school is one of the finest farms in the State-a farm which during period of many years has been developed and improved until now it easily carries a hundred head of cattle Such farm is in itself an educator of no mean order. There the students of the agricultural school may daily see good farm ing a diversity of soil-all now highly productive. They may see the fine crops raised upon lowlands which have been care fully drained and upon upland with we'll built walls, enclosing fields which produce luxurant grass and grain.
 The soil of the farm given by MT. Angus tus Storrs, in addition to the home property, is excellent. Some of the land is now very productive and more may be easily made so. The land has been assessed at considerably higher rate per acre than that of the proper ty to which it has been proposed to remove. The farm is much better than average Con- necticut farms. Of course a mere garden would be wholly unsuited to the purposes of an agricultural school.
 1t has been clalmed that there was some technical defect in regard to the title to portion Ca little more than one-fourtH of the land given by Mir. Storrs. The alleged cloud was fortunately in no case serious one. Steps have been taken to remove it. Real estate lawyers standing at the head of the profession in Connecticut now pronounce the title to be good.
 Unless there are some more imperative reasons for removing the school than have come to our knowledge, such removal would be great mistake.
 MT. Augustus Storrs has, at the earnest solicitation of the commission, generously consented to remove the restrictions as to the use of the property which were originally inn posed, and to give an absolutely uncondi- tional deed.
 In view of all the facts in the case, it seems that an uncalled for removal would involve ingratitude to the founders of the school, but for whom Connecticut would to- day be without an agricultural school. The school is already success.
 Its teachers earnest, practical men.
 They are satisfied with the location as are the trustees and others who are most conver- sant with the matter.

A Sluggish and Uncertain Market
 With no Particular Change in

New York. March 20, 1886. The market to-day was extremely dull and uncer- tain feversh, irregular and without any particular steer" either toward the haven of higher prices or lower ones. The coal stocks attracted considerable attention and were most largely dealt in. After being f1ddlefaddled with the day through by Board room speculators they closed pretty nearly where they opened Delaware and Lackawanna gained H while Jersey Cen ral fell of N. As for the rest of the list it simply too dull and dismal to require notice Western Union sold at 645s cash and at 6316, scrip dividend off At the close 64 (ex-scrp) was bid. In Pennsylvania railroad there was a drop of two points This is attributable to reports of scrip dividend and the probability of the com pany coming upon the market for new loan. Concerning the strikes on the Gould lines and the present temperature of the quarrel between the transcontinental reads there was nothing new. The Reading reconstruction business remains in statu quo. Sales at the Board amounted to 252, ,699 shares, against 309.507 yesterday and 45a,a45 on Thursday.
 Money loaned at 11302 per cent.
 @Thee xchange market was quiet and fairly steady. The nominal asking quotations for sterling are 4.ss for sixty days and 4.9O for demand. Actual business was done at the close at 4S704.s714 for sixty day bills, 4s904.s94 for demand, 4.sa14 @4.S915 for cables and 4.S6@4. .S6H for com mereial.
