photography.
The conscious sitters, the hard lights
and shadows, the ill-chosen accessories,
the constrained poses-how they make
us smile to-day! And it is true that the
very qualities most dreaded were often
those we now admire, and those we
Above all, it used to be assumed, it was
desirable that everything-everything
should "come out clear" Softness cf
effect was thing to be aLhorred.
One lady, whose family cherished the
custom of having the children's pictures
taken every two years, recalls wildly
the length, the solemnity and the elab-
oration of her childish sittings in a
famous New York studio, and especial
ly the care bestowed upon her toilet.
Her dress for the OCCASION consisted
year after year, of a large black and
white check, chosen because black and
white was supposed to come out"
more effectively than anything else. It
did indeed! She can now display Sc
ries of childish portraits in every one
of which she is arrayed in frock about
as plant and becoming as checker
board. The polish on her poor little
button-up slippers is so high 1t took
white in spots, and she is posed wearily
against dark screens or light ones, in
elaborate chairs of impossible outdoor
scenery, reproduced in violently obvi-
GUS detail-looking each time like the
exhausted little martyr she felt her
self.
An entry in an old diary recently
read by the young descendants of the
chronicler, who are eager enthusiasts
in the use of the camera, afforded the
family much amusement. It ran:
"Jane and Emmeline have had their
pictures took by the new process
James iowered silk has come out ber-
tiful, every leaf plain to see, and her
lace coler, too. Her mouth does notlook
quite naterall, and her hands are rather
large, but the black mits are most ele-
gent and becoming. It is fine picture
and much admired.
"Pore Emmeline's is not such a sue
cess. The small figgurs in her muslin
scurcely show, and, being blue, it came
out dinjey gray, and her coler was
small pattern, too, and one would not
know she wore one hardly, but for the
brooch. And she says that nobody
could tell whether it was O brooch or a
| spot of ink! She was so disapinted she

1t is easy to infer that II there had
been tears over either picture in our
time, it would not have been Emmeline,
with her pretty, soft muslin and her
sweet young face, who would have shed
them, but the unfortunate Jane, tri'

Conclusion.
In all that l have said / have only
sought to express my true convictions In
frank and candid way. That they will
give offense to some-perhaps to many
do not doubt. As to the sincerity Of
my purpose, an approving conscience
attests. I love the South, which has
been the thester of my activities for
nigh thirty years. That the blessings of
peace may soon come to it; that the
voice of discord between the races may
be speedily and effectually hushed; that
it may rise to that high estate, which it
will reach through the development Of
those resources with which nature has
go lavishly endowed it, is my Cherished
wish, my most fervent prayer.
