Souvenirs Of an EgOist.
BY ERNEST c. WSON.

Eheu! fugaces. How that air car- ries me back, that air ground away so unmercitully, sans tune, SonS time on hOpelessly discordant barrel organ, right underneath my window. It is being bitterly execrated, know, by the literary gentleman who lives in chambers above me, and by the con- vivial gentleman who has dinner party underneath. It has certainly made it impossible for me 10 continue the passage in my new Fugue in A minor, which was being transferred so fiowiDgly from my own brain on to the score when it interrupted me. But for all that have shrewd sus- picion that shall bear it's unmusical torture as long as it lasts, and even- tually send away the frowsy foreigner who, no doubt, is playing it, happy with fairly large coin.
 Yes; for the sake of old times, for the old emotions sake-for Ninette's sake-I put up with it, not altogether sorry for the recollections it has aroused.
 How vividly it brings it all back Though am rich man now, and SO comfortably domiciled; though the fashionable world are so eager to lion- ize me, and the musical world look upon me almost as god, and to-mor- row hundreds of people will be turned away for want of space where I am to play, just l alone, my last fantaisie, 1t was not so very many years ago that I trudged along, fiddling for halfpence in the streets. Ninette and I-Ninette with her barrel-organ and l fiddling. Poor little Ninette-that air was one of the four her organ played. I wonder what has become of her? Dead, I should hope, poor child. Now that am successful and famous, baron of the French empire, it is not altogether unpleasant to think of the old penniless vagrant days, by a blazing fire, in thick carpeted room, with the November night shut outside. I am rather an epicure of my emotions, and my work is none the worse for it.
 "Little egoistp I remember Lady Greville once said of me; Che has the true artistic susceptibility. All his sensations are so much grist for his art"
 But it is of Ninette, not Lady Gre- vile, that l think to-night-Ninette's childish face that the dreary grinding organ brings up before me, not Lady Greville's aquiline nose and delicate artificial complexion.
 Although 1 am such 8 great man now, should find it very awkward to be obliged to answer questions as to my parentage and infancy.
 Even my nationality I could not state precisely, though know I am as much Italian as English, perhaps
