A Gallery of FOrxerie..

Paris possesses very fine gallery of modern masters, largely of the Hijr bizol school, not one of which k ss,au inc. It is to the painter Harpignie, that France is indebted for ths queer collection of the spurious. Passing through the Rue de Vaugirard one day his eye caught some canyaseS ill d window. They were all signed by prominent names, including his OWL. and every signature was forged. Pass ing inside. the list became more extcn- sive. and the painter found himself in the presence of false Corots. Diazes. DaubiSnys, Lancrets, Isabeys. Neu- villes and even English Turner's. The revelation of his own identity enabled Harpignies to become possessed of this collection for something less th;ln the proverbial old song. and it may now be inspected by those Interested in such matters at the state furniture de pot, where it is preserved as a kind Of high water mark in sophistication.

Pexys That Carry q Vote.

The parish church of Chertsey pos sesses a curious anomaly. 1t has scv eral pews ill it's gallery which are bought and sold by auction. just like ! table or q chair and these pews give their owners for the time being a legal right to vote at parliamentary elections In the division. Moreover, the owners of the peWs have to pay the poor rate of f2 a year into the bargain. a prlvi- lege they are not so eager to use as the former one. Many years ago the church. Wardens of Cncrtsey were at their wits end ill order to raise money for the res toration and repair of the sacred edi flee, and they could find no solution to the question until some parishioners suggested that they should sell the gal lery pews to the highest bidder. They accepted the idea and obtained < spe cial act of parliament allowing ten to do this and also giving the privilege of parliamentary vote.-I.ondon Speeta tor
