COLORED STATUARY.

united the arr OF decorative painting with that OF
archtsctura and sculpture Two striking restoratons
at the exhibition Of the Museum Of Fine Arts will
undoubtedly create much discussion. Following the
evidence Of archaeological discoveries, cast of the

1t is told of Mozart that when he was
fourteen years old he heard in Rome the
'Miscrcrc Of Allcgri," and knowing that
it was forbidden to take or give copy
of this famous piece he paid such atten.
ton to the music that when he reached
home he noted down the entire score.
He was enabled a few days afterward to
check tho copy, when be found that he
had not made n single mistake. The
next day he produced such a sensation
in Rome by singing the "Miscrero" at a
concert that Pcre Clement XIV. re
questcd that he should DO presented Il
him. Thus, by his wonderful memory,
he was enabled to begin with success
his musical career.
