The Sinuer and the Soma.

A song is a great adventure. Thou
sands write it, tens succeed; and when
they have succeeded, its fate still lies
entirely with the singer. No one ever
had it so much in his power to make
the worse appear the better cause, Or
to refrain from SO doing. The ancients
placed Thamyris and Narada among
the gods; the moderns pay Their coun-
terparts royalties. But the singers
personality is still incalculable in
terms of canoniZation or of cash. That
personality means al that lie has been.
able to crowd Ito his lie; and he may
still enlarge it. A good way to do tIlat
is to read all tie poetry that he t,,,-s
not sing, and to lis:en 70 all the mUi"
written for some other instrumpnt
than the voice.-A. ii. Fox StraLg-
