The Asiatic does not know anything par
ticular about gold and silver. He has no
tools except pinchers and hammer, and
he has not the power of producing intense
heat vet he will do things with the metals
which his European brother cannot do with
all his appliances and skill. No doubt, if
he is an hereditary workman, something
has passed into his fingers which cannot he
acquired by a new competitor, and he has
the advantage of remembering patterns
originally designed by the men of genius
who are apt, at intervals perhaps of centu
ries. to crop up in the artist families. But
is that the whole of the matteri
We doubt it greatly and believe that
there is an Asiatic taste or instinct for
the beautiful which is as true in its way as
the instinct of an Athenian sculptor or a
Florentine wielder of the brush. 1t takes
a different direction-we see that most per
fectly when we compare the Alhambra with
Gothic cathedral-and it seems liable tC
strange, long pauses, like the one said t
have been recently observable in japanese
| art; but it is real it is original, and we car
! see no reason, save want of demand, why
should ever die out.
If that is true-and it must be true NOR
or less-and Europe can ever use the AS
| attic fingers without taking the skill out o
| them in the collision between the tastes o
the two races, the jeweler of Birmingham
may justfiably begin to tremble. Machln
cry will not help him much, and the "su
perior energy" of the British workman viii
not help him at all. Energy is not tn
quality wanted to produce n necklet or
ring What is wanted is a giftwhich tn
Asiatic workmen in thousands did one
possess and may display again, and tn
power of so utilizing that gift that it shall
manifest itself even when the designs ar
not stereotyped in the mind, but have beel

A man in England was once set upon by
an Infatuated rabble and was soon in dan
ger of his life His ready wit served him
good turn. He cried out while they were
dragging him along, "A guinea for the
man who will take my side" A fellow
near at hand, who had been cursing him,
responded with, Here you are, sir 4"
"Hit him, boys" quickly shouted the
briber; "hit him, boys. He's traitor Z"
"Hurrah" yelled the mob; lets hit
him" And for an instant they left their
prisoner loose to seize upon the victim
whom he designated But the instant was
enough for the first victim. He ducked
his head, got mixed in the crowd, and In
moment had quilted the scene.-San
