but not to be baffted with difficulties or deterred by ridicule, he pressed his application so 'perseveringly, employed even tears \"to aid his entreaties, that the reluc- \u201ctant painter was at last induced to \u2018admit him as a pupil.But all diffi- \u201cculties were not yreat an end.He i was poor, and to supply his neces- \u2018sities he would frequently go to the neighboring villages in his profession of tinker, aud retnrn with unquench- ed ardor to the performance of the higher duties of ihe artist.His application was as unceasing as his progress was uughestionable.He had not been with Lippo long before his master and fellow-students saw that he had within him the germs of genius, and sufficient industry and enthusiasm to ultimately insure sue- cess; and these who at first langhed at him for lis adventurous love, now encouraged him to persevere with unceasing activity in the great work to which he had luckily committed himself.He remained six or seven years with Lippo, and then left Bologna to visit the other great cities of Italy, with a view to improve himself it his art by studying the various styles of the great masters.He spent three years in this way, during which time he visited Florence, Ferrara, Venice and Rome.By this time he had become deeply penetrated with a love of his art, and wherever he went he felt more inspired ; for Italy m that age was consecrated by the presence of Genius, and the atmosphere of its cities was redolent with incense offered at the shrine of the beautiful.After an absence of ten years and some months, Solario returned to Naples as.a stranger, but with letters of introduction to some of the distinguised families of that city.He brought with him a Madonna and Child of his own drawing, and presented\u2019 it to his former patroness, the princess, who during the interval, had become queen.- Ascertaimng that he had painted the her with exactitude and finish.ted cord would glide from window\u2019 her Majesty had exp to window, aud the prisoner would probation of the pass from knot to knot, and enjoy threw venture to assert that history never, interest.hazardmg much by ,ambitien to promote.agreeing to such a proposal, and went, shen her beauty, and he in wishing to get rid of the inspetuons, his pride.to the altar, and there niu- which tually pledged themselves to a ac- which had been: se nobly struggled picture, Bolario himself at her feet, and asked her if she did not recollect the wandering gipsy who, ten years before We will conclude the present pa- had the honor of being admitted 10 per on the potency of love, by giv-, her presence, and in whose fortune we she had then been pleased to take an The queen, after closely observing him, and calling memory 10 her assistance, saw that he was indeed the very man.She immedi: ately sent for Colantonio, and asked his opinion of her newly painted per- trait.The old artist extolled it beyond measure.On her Majesiy\u2019s asking him whether he would not prefer giving his daughter to one who could so paint, than wait any longer for the return of the gipsy, of whom for so long a time he had heard nothing, too glad of an eppor- tnnity of being released from his engagement, the Neapolitan painter eagerly expressed his assent to the proposal.Solario was then called from behind the enrtain where he had been listening to the whole \u2018cf the conversation, and was introduced te Colantonio by the queen as he who had been the gipsy, but who, by his matchless industry, and unquenchable love of art and the old gentleman\u2019s daughter, had heroically smitten down difficulties, and realized his magnificent dream by becoming a great painter.Celantonio, struck with astonishment, saw before him the very face and form which had so earnestly asked for his daughter's hand ten years before, and overcome by his feelings, he fell on the neck of the transformed tinker, and kissed him.and said that il his ancestry did not deserve Ins daughter, his artdid.Kolarin, in the full flush of triumph was introduced to the lrdy towards whom his heart had so loug aspired, \u2018and whose happ ness il was his high \u2018Phey soon union \u2018for and so worthily won.From Fraser's Magazine.Women of Constantinople, Europe,\u201d gives the following account of the amusements of the women of Constantinople :\u2014'Nearly all the Turkish women sally out every Fri day, to take the air, away from the 10wy, on the banks ot the Bosphorus, or to some of the places where waier and shade may be found.The wealthy ride in carts withouUsprings, of unwieldy aud printitive construc- tion\u2014six or seven heaped together; and sometimes their husbands lead the horses or oxen to the chosen spot and then go away, leaving the women perfectly free to enjoy themselves as they please.\u2018The mos! pepular amusements are the singing and music of the gipsy women, who repair thither for the purpose\u2014mu- sic which is amorously languid, and singing which is detestably indecent.A lunch is generally brongh out, and when this is despatched, smo- King and drinking commence, drinking not of sherbet but of good brandy, or other strong liquors, which soon induce a boisterous gayety, so that the sultanas whom we often un- agine as pining away imprisoned, may be seen rolling in convulsions of inextinguishable laughter on the turf, or huddled up in a still more advanced stage ol intoxication, hke a bundle of rags.Their Montenegrin servants, who are the privileged Deholders of these scenes, arc often compelled to haul them into their carts, in which they are jolted back tothe harem.Those who are net too far gone, frequently pull up in passing through the Christian guar- ter, at the dcors ef taverns to gel more drink; and a file of a hundred carts may often be seen stopping in one street, all full of women, some made bold and chattering by their excess, others hanging sleepily about and murmuring to be taken home.There isa walk planted with elm trees, not far from the any, where suly women are admitted.\u2014 Two or three thousand assemble there at a time, and, sitting upon a verdant slope, enjoy the pantomitne of a comedy, which some infamous Jews, hired for the purpase, perform y \u2018for their arnusement.on the limits of the orbidden ground Ou these occasions it weuld scarcely be pe for à atrangey to recegnize eastern hfe frop thé déscriplions he is ac- beautiful picture, she eat to him' for cusionred to Tead.\u201cThe free cou- rirait, which Sotario painted duct When onde atifactèd of the -wonith ressed her ap- government, Bayley St.John, in his \u201cTurks in.\u201cVOL.9.\u2014NO;

and even pushed their audacity so far as to eat ices in the Frankish coffee-houses of Gala- ta and Pera.The edict accordingly recommended that early hours should be kept, and forbade women to enter shops of any kind, or to be driven about by young coachmen.\u2014 These interferences with manners which were supposed to be great advantages in civilization and which seem strangely accompanied by proclamations giving permission to women lo appear on the public promenades, were of course effectual.The women ceutinue their old cus- towns, though some have been hanged or drowned for being found in the back shops of Christians.It will require something else besides repressive measures lo bring about a reform in this respect.All laws in the East, inoreover, have the tem- perary character of proclamations.\u2018l'hey are applied for a day and forgotten.It is forbidden, for example, most expressly, for shopmen 10 have any other than old men.for their servants;

as he conceived, of his own snowy shirt emerging from a partof hisha- biliments, which we will suppose to have Leen his waistcoat.It was not that; but for decorum we will so call it.The stray portion of his own opposed tunic was admonished of its errors by a forcible thrust back;

and so voluminously that a very small portion of it, indeed, remained for the lady's own use;\u2014the natural consequence of which was, of course, that the lady appeared inextricably yoked to the learned theologian, and could not in any way effect the release, until after certain operations en the vicar's, dress, and a continued refunding and rolling out of snowy mazes, upon suowy mazes, in quantities which at length proved too much for the gravity of the company.luextinguish- able langhter arose from all parties, except the erring and unhappy doctor, who, in dire perplexity, contin- ved still refunding with all his might perspiring and relunding\u2014until he aid up the last arrears of his long debt, and thus put an end to a case of distress memorable to himself aud;

We confidently reply that he was met by an indignant vefusal on the part of the British government.\u2019 This remarkable revelation was the subject of a conversation ingpar- liament, in which the accuracy of the statements was admitted ; and Lord John Russell stated, that as the Si.Petersburg Journal alluded to this confidential correspondence, by the permission, without doubt, of the

east or from the west, she would infallibly create war on the banks of the Danube, the Rhine, or the Vistula.This is what neither Germany ner the resi of Europe can desire.Fer these reasons we hope that the government of his majesty will recollect the duties it has to fulfil as a great European power, as well as the responsibility which the private interests of Russia and Germany impose upon it.\u2019 The ministry have declared in parliament that the western pewers are resolved to insist on the reforms necessary to seeure the Christians equality of civil rights in Turkey.These revelations

Stanstead Journal.To the Temperance men of the County of Stanstead.Fellow Citizens, \u2014 What is to be done.The Municipal Council has inet,\u20141ihe petition signed by so many of our eitizens fur the suppressing \u2018Tavern Licences, has been cast aside with contempt, and the cause of temperance and its advocates treated with universal indifference, and but listle of value accomplished.\u2014 Ignorance prevents enlightened action, intemperauce prevails through its legalization by law, and this prolongs the despotic sway of ignorance.They go baud sn hand, and ene is the result of the other.How can any body of men seriously believe that fifty Municipal electors can force npon the whole Municipahty, ten, \u2018twenty, forty, dramshops, and thus flood the Caoun- ty with the drunkard's beverage.\u2014 Be it remembered thes the same fifty electors may sign fly recommendations and the council is obliged by law, 1g grant them.If this be law, our law-makers are acurse to the community.How necessary then te send staunch Maine Law men to the Legislature., Before the petition: for suppressing uicenses was read the Conucil declared they had power to grant or refuse Licenses, and after few delib cralions unanimously voted to grant the prayer of the petitioners.I'he petitioners and others rejoiced in the act, and said that the Council had acted justly, nobly, aud were thankful thar the Councillors had sense enough to discern, and mauliness to perform their duty.Here was wisdom, but alas ! union and firmnes were wanting, and therefore their wisdom was turned into folly.Whilst the petitioners were trusting to the good faith of the Councillors, the enemy was at work and and next day \u2018tell it not in Gath, publish 11 uot in Askelon,\u2019 the incon- staut, and suddenly enlightened Conncil dismissed the petition What other petition was ever trea tedso?They have closed their eyes 10 the fiery flood of ruin and destrue- tom, which their Licenses pour over the Municipality.\u2018The have closed their ears to the wails of anguish, which rise from the licensed pits of degredation, in which licenses have suuk them.Itis a ruinous trade, in which ouly a few drops of poison are given in exchange for wealth, happiness and hfe.It 1s the gigantic offspring ot human selfishness-the impelling locomotive to ruin and degredation.| know there are firm temperance men iu the onneil, but there are also nulk and water oues, who will defend the drunkard makers and think it hard to call them by their right names.For my part! cannot find a word Mean enough to express the enor- wity of their guilt.The Hon.Neal Dow says 4171s below murder, or robbery, or all other crimes put together.\u2019 Now, what is to be done?Under our present mode of attack, no result is to be gained, and we musi change it, We must make the liquor question an important one in elections, or we shall never get the pack-saddle of drunkenness and drunkards off our backs.Let us lest our strength, and show it.Let us but persevere, as de our enemies, and the result must be successful.HUGH ELDER.Stanstead, March 25h, 1854 To the Hon.Erastus Fairbanks.The recent action of the Directors of the C.and P.Rivers Railroad with reference to ils extension to the point of its original destination, is bighly creditable to their judgment and good intentions.In these days when bad faith in Corporations is justified upon the slightest grounds ef expediency, it is truly gratifying to see one which adheres implicitly to its original plan, unbiased by side influ- ances.The flattering inducements which have been held out to divert the direction ef the road to Island Pond on the ene side, and to the Mis- sisgnoi Valley on the other, are well known, and have been of such a character as would have operated npen men of weaker minds and less sterling integrity.But the result, we hope 8nd cenfidently believe, will in a few years make the wisdom of their deeision clearly apparent.The resources of that extensive and fertile region lying between St.Johushury snd Montreal, are but imperfectly known to our southern friends.Being far remeved from the great theroughfares of public travel, nothing but the most urgent business has ever induced gentlemen from Boston of New York te pay us eve.a hurried visit.And eur distance from market hae boon vueh as te eom- a tian.The chorch as à pince of pe! us unprofitably 1p consume sud Waste those products which under other cireumstauces would have introduced ve to the merchgat and manufacturer, * bundance of those articles whieh ars most teeded in large cities, he expense vf trans- pertatien has been so great as to limit our exports principally te herses and cattle, and our importe to the necessaries and luxuries whieh we were unable ourselves to produce.Yet the Boston merchant in reviewing his books, will find that the trade of Starstead end Orleans Counties constitutes no insigmficant item in his business.To the business man who has passed over the country fiom St.Johnsbury to the Province Line, and thence to Montreal, it were needless to say what it possesses in the highest degree those resources and facilitiesgwhich afford the most permanent and reliable Rail road trathie.\u2018That road which depends wholly upon a profitable through business, is lia ble at any time to be rendered alisgether worthless by some unexpected rival, or a genera! chasge in the great channels of trade.The road which depends upon some great staple, as Lumber, may be thrown eut of employment by an exhaustion in the quantity, er depreciation in the value of the commodity.But that road which depends principal ly upon the businees of an extemsive and prosperous Agricultural Ceuntry, possesses a source of profil as reliable as the operations of Nature, and will increase in value in proportion as the country increases in wealth and prosperity.We have vet to learn that eur Northern Counties can be surpassed by the mest favored portions of New England in agricultoral capabilities.The surface of the eauntry ie undulating, but noc broken, afferding the swectest pastures and riedest meadows imaginable.No part of Americ is Letter adapted to the purposes of grazing and the dairy than eurs.Our pastures ave weli watered, and the soil, which is arable to the tops of the highest hills, is of such a nature that it is but little affected by those severe droughts which have proved so fatal in New Hampshire aud Massachusetts.Field crops of every description adapted to the climate can be cultivated advantageously with us.The better class of our farmers depend upon the following as a fair average of their field produce, one year wiih another: Wheat, 15 10 25 bushels, average, a Indian Core, 40 to 70, do bh Oats, 40 to 70 bush.de 50 Potatoes, 200 10 400, de 250 Hay, 1 to ® tons, de 11-2 Barley, 30 to 79 bush.do 40 The above may be eonsidered as the alinost spontaneous growth of the soil, for we have had no inducements to warrant the great expenditure of capital in the way of manuring, draining, irrigation, &c.which is practised by those farmers living in the vicinity of Railroads and markets.1 have reason to believe that we have less waste land and mere pussessing extreme fertility, than can be found in the sane climate in America.The uncleared lands along the proposcd line of Railway, are covered with the best timber of their several kinds, namely, Spruce, Hemlock, Cedar, and of the hard weods a dapted to furniture making, finishing, &ec.Maple, Bitch, Ash, Elm and Butternut.\u2014 The Pine aleng the route is confined principally to the County of Shefford, where it is found in censiderable quantities.Iam strongly impressed with the opinion that this must be the Lumber Route for Boston.The less valuable timbers above mentioned can be oh- tained in any desirable quantities along the line of the Road, and t se noble Pines from the magnificent and ie lumber region of the Ottarva, must find their way from Montreal to the Atlantic cities via the most direct and feasible route to Boston, viz.the Passumpsic raad.To the mineral wealth of Stanstead County, I have alluded in a previons commuuica- tion.The Lime, Soap Stone, Chromic Iron, &c.must become very important staples of transport.Iron Ore has recently been discovered in the Counyt of Shefford, which promises to surpaee in quantity and value anything in this Northern country.These various resources, as I at first remarked, are better known to ourselves than to our Southern friends: but when the iron rail shall have linked us together, and a consistent Reciprocity arrangement allawe us to buy and sell in your markets en terms of equality, the etuekholders of the Passumpsic Railroad will have every reason to be grateful to their Directors for the energy, zeal and foresight which they have displayed in pushing their enterprize into Canada.The Stanstead, Shefferd and Chambly Rail- noad, which is to connect the Passumpsid with Montreal, is contracted throughout Bi whole extent, and a great pottion sub-let.Operations have already commenced, and we nay reasonably expect its completion in Oc- taher, 1855.Should the whole scheme not prove highly remunerative, I shall have no faith in Railroads hereafter.CHAS.C.COLBY.Stanstead, Mareh 25th, 1854.To the Editor of the Stanstead Journal.Six\u2014In the published report of the pre- ceedings at the late meeting of the Municipal Council, an error was made relative to the application of Mr.H.Sweeney for a license.Mr.8.had the

evident ly intended 10 avouse and inflame the hated of his countrymen towards England.Tt is undoubtedly 1rne that the Irish in the United States foster a spirit of hustitisy towards Fng: land, whieh, were the opportunity affbrded, they would gladly wresh.\u2018They eharge their degradation at heme, their porerty, their ignorance, their starvation, and af rheir sufferings and debasements te the

not by arms, but by money, loaned in the shape of ships.The fact that England and the United States are commercial rivals, and view each other with feelings of jealousy akin to.hatred, is forcibly put, and hints are held out of the great service which Russia can render the world by reestablishing Polish independence, and by checking the supremacy which England is rapidly acquiring over ether
