There can be little surprise, when we reflect upon this beautiful inspiration of maternal attachment, that Raphael should have painted as he did his famous picture of the “Madonna delia giolw,” which forms one of the greatest glories of the Florentine Gallery.

The grand patrons of art in the Italian capital had commissioned their chief irtist to execute for them a ‘“eapo d’ awork of glory and majesty which should worthily represent the Lloly Virgin. and be the boast of the most splendid church in Fiorence. What Raphael did was to wander in the market place uatil he saw a comely Tuscan mother suckliog her infant ; wad then and there, upon the bottom oi a wine gask, he swiftly sketchéd the beautiful figure, since known to all the w eld, wherein the glad and teocer wile broods over the baby b Vv, pressilig him to her breast, folding her arms like shields of love about him, and bending, half downward to the nestlinz little one. hait outward to the world, the thought ful, proud, and lovely countenance which is to her child as the azure fuce of the sky is to us-—-as much as can be seen of heaven, as much as men can Wellknow of the overreaching. ever present glory and love of God.— Lon- don elegraph.

“Indeed! and what was it”

“A book case.”

lyonorance and superstition have ren dered very difficult the task of fighting the cholera in Italy. Last month, in Perecino, a small village in Calabria, shots were fired from the windows of some of the houses in order to keep

Tue Scott Act is now in force in Char lottetown and will until the majority of electors decide otherwise.

If the voter places on the ballot paper more than one mark his vote will not be counted.

This election is for the City of Char- lottetown only, and we understand that the residents of the Royalty hav2 no votes. [t is even doubtful whether non-residents, owning property or paying rent in the city, are entitled to vote. The better seems to be that actual residence in Char- lottetown or Common is necessary to entitle a person (otherwise qualified) to vote.
