Original Era of Good Feeling.

The phrase applied to the admins
tration of James Monroe, "the era of
good feeling" first appeared in a Bos-
ton newspaper, the Columbian Senti-
mel of July 10, 1917. From that time
until the present hour the two admin
istrations of Monroe-a period of eight
years, 1917 to 1S25-are referred to
in the terms of the newspaper para

public sentiment of the day.-Maga-

STAGE LIGHTNING.

A new system Of stage lighting
has been devised by Signor Merianc
Fortury of Venice, by which a diff
fused light, very like daylight, lie
obtained. Using electric arc lamps
he so arranges them as to secure d
reflection Of their light from sur
faces Of cloth. The cloth for the
purpose is made in broad strips, al
ternately light and dark, so that a
dead white glare is avoided. The
proportions of light and dark vary,
and the cloth is arranged on rollers,
controlled from in front of the stage,
so that the operator can watch and
change effects at rwill during the
progress of the play. The slSy-back-
ing for each scene set is arched, to
further the illusion, and the diffused
lighting gives a remarkable result.
