It can now no longer be said to our discredit that those who we real ability in this direction do not find an intelligent apprecia- tion, with remuneration somewhat commen- surah: with their talents. in Carwia. Hither- to we have been as a rule so much engrossed in the more essential and practical work of industrial. commercial, and pditical develop- ment. that oomjnrativcly little attention has been lmtowml upon the fine arts. and the few who had the leisure and the means to indul e tastes of this order were rather dispowr to slight native talent as necessarily inferior to that of other countries. Of late. however, the position attained by our artists has commanded recognition in artistic circles abroad, and with the increase of wealth and material prosperity, and the cultivation of national sentiment, a disposition in favor of fosterin ' native art has fortunately arisen. The Art L'nion Exhibition of this year clearly indicatmr not only the aatisfacto ' progress in the art of painting, but the vast y increas- ed interest taken by art ronnm‘ueuru and the general public in the encouragement of artis- tic spirit. Should this feeling be maintained it will no longer be necessary for the Cana- dian artist to settle in foreign countries in order to gain the reward of his professional skill denied him by his unapprcciativc countrymen. BLACK AND wun‘i-z DRAWING. It is not merely. however. in the depart- ment of color, as represented in our studior and exhibitions, that substantial and chees- ing progress is being made. but also in the more fundamental branches and severe study of form, and ii 'ht and shade, as illustrated by the work 0 the designer, draughtsinan. and engraver. At no previous era in the history of Canada has such excellence been attained in the line of drawing for illustra- tions, as wull as in the department of really lirstclass engraving. and newer were these classes of artists so sure of rcadycngagcmcnts and liberal remuneration as at present. The demand for the services of thoroughly quali- fied artists to furnish pictures for engraving, as Well as for engrave-rs to 'ivc expression to thcir designs, owing to pu rlication criter- prises now on foot, promises exceedingly well for the future of these two intimately related branches of art amongst us. Few people perhaps who have not taken a special in- tcrcst in the subject are aware of the excel- lcncc lately attained in these departments. A visit to the art department of the Art l’ub- liAAlring Company recently afforded the wri- ter some insight into the elaborate and bean- tiful character of the artistic work which is being done in Toronto, and the extent of the rulvancemcnt lately made in this particular. The work entitled "Picturesque Canada." shortly to be issued by this firm, will have no fewer than five hundred illustrations, depicting «‘AHAMAN LIFE .\_\'1» sr‘izsfznv, ...â€"â€"â€"â€"‘. Sothern in Handcufl's. Perhaps one of the densest crowds that London ever knew assembled to witness the entry of the Prince of “'ales with the Prin- cess Alexandra, some years ago. The proces- sion having to promenade Fleet Street en route to Temple Bar, the editor of Punch issued invitations to a select cotcric of artistic and literary friends to assemble at the Punch office, to partake of lunch and see the show from the windows, and a more brilliant as- sembly of men of genius, perhaps, rarely met under one roof. Among the persons expect- cd was Sotlrcrn, the comedian. The pro- cession was to move until twelve o’clock, and Lord Dundreary did not leave borne until about half-past ten. All was plain sailing as far as Fleet Street ; and, discharging his car- riage at the corner of a street intersecting this thoroughfare, he reached Fleet Street, and by dint of hard squeezing and pushing, prevailing, and watching every movement of the gigantic crowd, he at last got opposite the Punch office, and there he was com lied to halt. To cross the street was simp y inr- ossible. Deeply buried in the dense throng, re stood for quite an hour watching his friends, at the windows. “By the gods,” irruscd the comedian, “I’m missing an enor- mous treat 2 I must get across the street by book or by crookâ€"but how ‘2" Happy thought ! At that moment he saw a. police- man. He worked his way towards him and said, “Bobby, if you’ll manage to take me across the street to the Punch oflicc, I'll give you a sovereign." The policeman sim ly smiled, and pointed to the impenetrable throng. “I know it will be tough work, and pcrhn I may lose my coat and hat in the strugg e,"rcplicd Sotlicrn; “but it’s most important that i should be there with ury friends." “I've no doubt of it, sir, but it‘s impossible. “'hy, you might as well ask me to take you through the walls of St. Paul's there.” “Nonsense,” urged Sothcrn, with irrepressible persistence. “You are a tall, strong manâ€"I'm thin and wiry ; if you’ll open the way, I'll follow, and it's to be done with little effort. Look here (whisper), get me over, and 1'“ give you a 135 note !” At this offer the policeman shirt one eye, rubb- ed his car, puckered his lips, stood on tiptoc, and surveyed the scene before him. “Brace yourself for a mighty cll'oi't," said Sotlrci'n, encouragingly. llc made an effort, but without success. The crowd instantly bowl- ed with one voice, “Back, back, Bobby, back ! Where are you slroviu’ to 1'" At that; moment Dickens and Shirley Brooks came to the window, each with a glass of champagne, in his hand, looked out, surveyed tlrc scene, and their rctircd, radiant with some obser- vation made by the author of “Pickwick.” This tableau was too much for Lord Duri- drcary â€"to miss all the brilliant talk of that morning, to miss being presented to some of the most gifted men on earth lhcwould makc one last effort. “Policeman,” whispered he, “have you gut a pair of handcuffs?

Those engravings already finished, which include r-vcry variety of scene, are characterized by l'th’l‘lllL‘ly delicate and perfect workmanship, showing not merely a high degree of talent on the cut of the artist, but a spirited re- production b ' the engraver such as is not often attained). In order to secure this re- sult the engravcrs need to bo themselves art- ists in every sense of the word. and to pos- sess an intelligentsympathy with the design. or and a thorough appreciation of his handi- work, so that they may be cllicient co- operators in giving expression and finish to it and preserving all the delicate and signifi- cant touches of the original. Engravers of this class are not easily obtained, and it speaks well for the cntcrprisc of the lirin and the spirit in which they have set about the undertaking that they have literally :rpnrcd no expense in securing for their stall the vi-i'y best procrrrnblc talent. There is an cvcrmcss running through all thc work, a delicacy of shading and an absolute fidelity in the reproduction which will surprise and delight the art-loving public when it is fairly set before them.

He must go on that every signal is at danger, though never in his experience has it lie must also exercise but see that all is right for himself. It is really a matter when we read what Mr. Reynolds has to tell story of hard work, irregular hours, and no little danger, he goes on to say: ” If we were to sum up the conditions on which a man can command the regulator of an engine it would read thus-miles to run. 200,000; coals to break up and put into the firebox in their proper place, 3,000 tons ; day work, 3 years ; night work. 4 years ; Sunda work; '25 days per year ; innumerable hair- u‘cadtlr mouth shut and the ears open, an iron corr- stitution, a whistle on tlrclips, a warm heart, l and an intelligent head. with the motto ‘ \Vait.’ " As with the cnginc~driver, so with all the rest of the railway staffâ€"they ‘must always assume that things are wrong until they are proved to be right. Not long ago an accident happened from a Signalman , not having a proper railway mind. A train was in the station waiting to go out; this , signalumn tried to lower the starting siunal, ' but found it locked ; he looked at the lock- ing-frame and saw that the lever moviu v the ints of a siding was pulled over, thus ock- ing the stai'tiri ' signal; he tried to put it | back, but conlt not; he now made the fatal error of thinking for himself, instead of act- ing as part of the machinery ; seeing a truck on the siding he jumped to the conclusion that the wheels were foul of the points, and that that was the reason wiry the point-lever would not move, and without further verifi- cation signallcd the train onby hand. Now, the real reason wiry this point-lever would not move was that the signal on a branch line was down, thereby locking the lever of the siding-points and that of the start.in signal. As soon as the main-line train, which had been so recklessly sent on, got well on to the line, a train caruc along the branch line, and, the signal being down, did - not. stop. and ran into the other train, doing great damage. In many instances it is )03- siblc to test the working of men and mac rin- cry in unusual circumstances. At sea, fire drill and “man overboard" drill are carried out, and in the military service false alarms of fire or attack are given to exercise the men in vigilance and promptuess of action ; but on a line of railway this is impossible. l’urrctuality in the running of trains is of the first importance, so that when something goes wrong the staff must deal with it as it were by instinct, and how well they do it is obvious from the comparatively few accidents tlrat'lrappen. How (ion or is often wardcd off by courage and intcl igcuce the general public seldom learn. â€"_â€"-â€"-4--->â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€" An Electric Railway in London. One of the novelties at the Crystal Palace on Easter Monday was the opening of an electrical railway, constructed by the Socicte Anouymc d’Elcctricitc. of Brussels, on the Siemens system. On the upper terrace of the Palace grounds, overlooking the charming scenery of Sydcnham, a liiininturc circular metals, has been laid down, surrounding one ' '. u‘ ,‘.." ., . ,‘. \ mull; Sm“ "1 sou“) “ “n “It” “a” I of the ornamental ponds, and usmall wooden falling in curls in the back, looped together with a bow or long clasp or a pull‘ of hair, and banged and frizzcd in front. A puffed pocket on each side of" the skirt, falling under the arms, not; in front of the hips, appears on many of the bard dresses for little folks. Lisle thread gloves, with long, closed, loose, wrinkled wrists, come in all shades of corn, tau, brown, gold, gray, and cream shades. and in black and white. 'l‘lu‘cc-prougcd combs for the back hair frequently have c long claspiug top, set with jet, jewels, or gold or iii vcr balls, which encircle the chignon or back hair like a fillet. Colored urrdcrskirts are no longer fashion able on the other side of the water. Neither are white skirts worn, except the short pct- ticoat. The correct long undershirt is of black silk or black cashmere. “Sets,” composed of a collarcttc, pocket. and fan of colored surah silk. trimmed with Spanish lncc of the some color and a. bunch of flowers on each piece, are used to enliven black. white, and sober-tinted cos- tumcs. llayadcrc and plaid surah and surah Al- gerian and ombr'c stripes are all suitable for trimming dresses of cusluucro, nuu‘s veiling, and fancy woolen materials, as well :s self- colored, hair-lined, 'aud pin-head checked summer silks. There is scarch ‘ airy act of ones every- day life into which fashion does not enter to a greater or lesser degree. Each event of any special importance is symbolized by an appropriate style of costume. and it is by certain recognized forms of dress that the distinction between classes and castes is detenuincd. The general principles which govern the laws of dress are usually recognized as leading regulations, are founded upon the canons of good taste, and should be as fixed and unaltcrable as anything relating tn this subject: there are, however, frequent deviations from this rule, and it is for this reason that great can: should be taken in the selection and arrangement of alady's wardrobe. At this season, particularly. when maids and matrons are busy preparing for the animal trip to the mountains, Sca- shorv, or some of the fashionable watering- placcs, it becomes necessary to give the subject of how to dress even more attention than it receives at any other time. There arc so many points to be considered. so many things to be deliberate-l upon, so many selections to be made. and so much anxiety to be borne. that the present becomes endur- ablc only in consideration and anticipation of the future. when. radiant in daint 'mulls and silk!. the fair maidens become observed of all observers. the envy of less fortunate damn-ls. _â€"â€"â€"â€"*-oâ€"-‘.oâ€"â€"p.â€"6â€"â€"â€" Worse Than Prlwrlghtlng.

I metres, "rails, stands the electrical locomotive. Mother llub- length is about four feet, its breath about a I hut erected beside it as a passenger station. ()u this railway, which is about 300 frictrcs in length, and has a gauge of about. 50 cunti- or ill inclics between the outer its ~| metro, its height about as much, and its 5 weight some tlrrec~quarters of a ton. in fact, a Siemens dynamo-electric machine, neatly boxed in, and mounted on atruck I with four metal wheels, and provided with a ibrakc and alarm bell for its control by the i man in charge. A stationary engine of about ' eight horse power nominal, in a shed about | thirty yards from the railway line, drives a stationary dynamo-electric which tlic clectro-motivc current is primarily obtained. Two wires are connected with this fixed dynamo-machine. By one of them the current flowing out is conveyed to the mid-rail of the railway, to which it is attached by an iron plate bolted on. The second or return wire is attached to the exterior rail of the railway. The mid-rail is supported upon wood blocks, and is thus in a certain degree insulated. Beneath the electric locomotive n. brush of iron wires sweeps the mid-rail, and the elec- ti'iuil current is thus taken up into the loco- motive, where it passes through the mounted Siemens irraclriuc within it. the large bobbin of which is thereby caused to rcvolvc, and the current passing away by the wheels of the truck to the interior rails of the road, is conveyed back to the stationary dynamo- macliinc. As the current thus circulates, and the bobbin of the mounted machine rc- volvos, it drives the four wheels of the truck as the locomotive moves on, hauling after it a load of nearly three tons with case at the speed we have named. The clcctrical loco- motive is (easily managed; by applying the brake the clcctro-motivc current is cut oil‘ as a driving power, while the wheels arc at the same time mechanically skidded. lly rcvcr- sing thccurrcut the locomotive can be driven in either direction, as desired.
