Feat of Memory.

An extraordinary feat was performed
the other day at Naples by M. Arlini
professor of rhetoric, in presence OF
large audience, which was mainly
composed of actors, authors and jour
nalists Without hesitation and with
hardly pause he repeated from mem
ory the 1880 lines that are in the "Di-
vine Comedy of Dante. 1t was 8
o'clock in the evening when he began
to recite, and he did not stop until a
quarter past two in the following af-
ternoon. The task, therefore, occupied
him 1,095 minutes. which was at the
rate of $50 lines an hour. During all
this time he recited increasingly, ex-
cept at rare intervals, when he stopped
for minute or two to sip a little
brandy and water. The feat was the
result of a wager.
