The Ad,sn,ars- d Rochefor,.

M. Henri Rocheforr has written a char
acteristic introduction TO his Adventures
of My Life" He describes the extraor
binary vicissitudes Of his existence-one
day minister, with enormous power; a
month or two later on his way 10 a convict
settlement on the other side of the world.
But IL is the ups and downs In the lives OF
Others and notably in the lives Of great
painters, that Kochcfort depicts In the
most interesting way. He lived I'm the
same house with CorOt and has seen the
great master trampling in rage upon -
pictures he could find no one To purchase.
He met Mlllct once, In the street Notre
Dame de- Lorcttc, at a little dealers, TO
whom he had just offered "a picture for
800 francs which ROchcfOrt has since seen
sold for $1,000 francs. He publishes a
letter % Millct containing the following
passage: II dare not pass before the
butchers. There are not ? shillings In
the house, and this has been my condition
for some 20 years" Laughing at the
English love Of hunting and shooting,
Rochefort tells how he used 10 go out
hunting each morning in the London pic
ture dealers shops and how he recently
unearthed "a superb Goric1ult, which was
given TO him for mere nothing. --Satur-
