AN ARTIST’S PUPIL,

A Story of Titian and Venice.

(CONTINUED. )

Some days passed on, aud the por- trait still remained in ‘Titian’s studio. Giulio often looked at it, but never spoke of it, and ‘Titian did not err when he thought there was a meaning in this silence,

But the grand festival day of Venice was at hand. ‘This was Ascension Day, on which the Dodge performed the annual ceremony of signifying the maritime power of the signory by

-ensting a golden ring into the waters

of the Adriatic. The custom was, at this proud celebration, for Venice to send out her population of all degrees, and it was certain that at such a time the fairest daughters of Venice never were absent.

The short voyage at the Doge trem the quay of the dueal palace to the boundary of Lido and Malmocea was always performed on this oceasion ina stately vessel called the Rucentaur, a ealley said to be of equal antiquity with these maritime nuptials. The magnificent vessel always borea freight of some importance ; for, besides the Doge, the council, the chief officers of state. and the admiral of the port (who acted as pilot, and was bound by oath

to bring the vessel back to the harbor- ave in the arsenal), it bore the ambas-

ot,5

sadors from the various countries in al-|

liance with the republic. Sometimes, héesides the nobilissimi and the state officials, it bore citizens of worth, and atall times the Doge was glad to see by his side the great painter, Tiziano Vecelli, whose pencil could confer such immortality as earth is proud of, and whose works reflected more fame upon Venice than Venice in all her glory could bestow upon him.

Giulio, with others of his age, fol- lowed in the procession, for it was a scene of matchless beauty and mag- nitieenee, well worthy the attention 6f a painter’s mind andeye. The Bucen- taur was swept on in a stately manner by the rowers, and Ginlio’s light gon- dola came near it, within full view of the gallant company beneath its gors weous canopy of crimson damask, rich ty embroidered with gold. To Giulio’s amazement, Titian had by his side a young lady, and when she turned her face for a moment, Giulio saw to his surprise and delight that she was the tuir original of tbe portrait.

The ceremonials went on, and Andrea Gritti, the Doge, wedded the sea (an unstable and fickle mistress) with the aceustomed words, ‘‘ We wed thee with this in token of our true and perpetual sovereignty.” The moment these words were uttered, and the ring cast into the sea, it was strewed with flow- érs and fragrant herbs in the fanciful jdea that thus the bride was crowned!

The pageant ended, Giulio speeded to ‘Titian’s house. He found the great artist before the easel, busied, as usual, in some work for immortality. They spoke on various subjects, but Titian made no mention of the young signora of whom Giulio had just one glance. At last Giulio said that he had seen Titian on the deck of the Bucentaur; but this, though it challenged Titian’s allusion to the lady, drew no remark from him about her, so that at last Giulio ventured to say that he thought the signora much resembled the por- trait which he had admired from the moment it first met his view.

‘Admire it, Signor Giulio Mantoni ? Fall asleep before it in excess of admir- ation? Well, well, thou needst not blush. “Tis my daughter Beatrice, whom thou shalt meet anon, But, sig- nor, if thou shouldst not, it would be well for thee to take thy siesta ere thou meetest her. Women, as thou knowest, like not cavalieri who are drowsy. Nay, I have not told her that. She saw thee, and asked who thou wert, and-t told her Giulio ; but not that thou didst gaze thyself to sleep before her portrait. Now, let us within. Thou wilt like my gentle Beatrice. She re- minds me of what her fair and loving mother was.’ ;

And Giulio did very much like Be- atrice Vecelli, who, in turn, admired the manly beauty and chivalrous bear- ing of the Spaniard. Admired ?—alas! that is a word all too weak. Women scarcely knows a medium, in her inter- course With our sex, between the cold- est indifference and the warmest love. Long before she knew it Beatrice was deeply and devotedly attached to Giulio. Her father saw this, and did not check it; he already loved Giylio Mantoni as a son, cheerily anticipated that, in the! natural course of time and cireum- stance, he would. become so—with the | consent of Beatrice.

Very much did Giulio admire the loveliness, the grace, ithe innocence of Beatrice Vecelii, but he did not love her with more than a brothers love. To do him justice, he was all uncon- scious of the feelings which his atten- tive. kindness had awakened in her gentle heat: He read to her and talked with her as if she were his dear |

The Greatest Medjcal Diseovery since the Creatian of ion. or since the Commencement of the Christian Era.

There never has been a time when the heal- ing Of so many different diseases has been caused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entixe population of the globe resort to the tse

of ordinary paasters.

DR. MELVEN’s CAPSICUM Porovs PLASTERS are adknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever befere tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a nuaitred of the ordinary kind, All other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with those it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant one is applied the patignt will feel its effect.

Physicians in all ages have thoroughly tested aud well know the effect af Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as Aa medieal agent for an outward application; but it is anly of very recent date that its advan- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Belng, however, convineed of the wonderful eure’ effected by Dr. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM Porocs PLastTprRs, and their superiority over all ather plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, paim in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you haye tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for DR. MELYIN’S CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effeets. Aithough powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate person to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sutticient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will sell hundreds to your friends.

sk your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSi- cUM POROUS PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, to any address in the United States or Canadas.
