1.-The Metropolitan Museum OF Art said
Mr. Martin Whitehurst, of New York, at
Willard'e, sis one of the few things in
New York that has right to bear the
adjective in its title. II is, in fact, a
metropolitan institution. Considering that
its evolution from the small nucleus with
which it started in its hired quarters in
Fourteenth street has taken place not
merely within q generation, but that its
principal benefactors then, are its prin-
cipal benefactors now; its evolution has
been amazing. For really it is already
one OF the great museums OF the world, and
in certain lines is in advance of any museum
in the Old world That there should he
in America an institution to which Euro
pean archaeologists in certain specialties
have to resort. in order TO allay the veXed
questions in their specialties, is a great
distinction for New York, and reflects
honor upon the whole country.

The Dead and the Living.

There were two brothers fought at Roanoke;
Shoulder to shoulder through that fiery
hell,
That storm OF shot and ball and bursting
shell;
Fought as two heroes, till one brother
fell
Dead in the swamp. his shroud the battle
smoke.
Now. every year, fair children deck the
grave
or him who died their comtry's life to
save,
And mothers weep, and fathers call him
brave
1t was a hero fell at Roanokel
The other one who fought at Roanoke
Lived on, by chance; is living still today
Old and unknown, bent, beggared, Grip
pied, gray;
And children mock him in their thought
less play.
None weep for him No orator e'er spoke
OF him as noble. No one says he gave
His best in life his country's life to save;
And yet, God knows, the living was as
brave
As he who fell that day at Roanoke.
