For 170 yeara the States Goneral had not regulariy azsembled im Trance, until the reign of Lonis XVI., and then, whew they did moet, they ouly mat to imposo frosh taxes upon tho people. Tho latter were in o stato of utter serflom. No less than 1,500,000 grown men of France wero body-serfs of tho Kibg aud the nolles at the pe- nod of the Rovolution. Tho nobles claimed exemption from taxation on account of tho priv- ileges ot their order; the Cuurch claimed cx- cmption on 1he ground that they were the trusteos of the poor; and tho two privileged clansos combiued to plunder tho thirdestate, who 600, by the way, had nathing left to be plun- dered of. Tuo rpenker then proceedod to deecribe the assembly of the French Parliament, and gove a vivid picture of the first Legislature in which the people dated to put on thoir hiats bofore the King. Lou.s XVI made bus specch, in which lio promise to do all hia could for France, and put on bis plutned hat, Then the nobles put on their hate, aad tao third estato ventured to cover their iewr, lmmediately there were crios of * Haty ., wmen 1™ but uo Lat was put on, and, stally, to yuell the tumult, the Kimg removed W chapean, which setiled watters for that tiie.

Bronson Alcott, Bir. Brouson Alcott's lecturo last evening at the Palmer Houwe was based upon tha theory that ideals sre entities, and the idealists aro really the practical people of thoage. Subor- dinate to this subject were many other thoughity, the subject of cult both pliyrical oo wental. being dwelt npon, i rogard to physical eulturo, Lo thought it inadvisalla to attewpt to blend ex- tremes. If the dark and tue fair camo together 18 types, then there would be no barmony, o seemed to consider the blonde types ss the more harmouious, and the Lrunetto ae the atrougest, baving the most force. In suppcrt of thia he suggested what tho renult would proh- ably bo of & unicn betreen Hercules avd the eame typo in woman, and Apollo with tho otler Iads, whom be would not name, but whom every 1ady would think of. He gaid a1l present couid decide whence they originally came, blue eyes baving their atcestry in Heaudinavis, black eyes in the Orient, and al- though all types were much blended wow, still it was possible to trace them. Mo preferred also to may '‘riting in love" 1netead of *‘fallivg in Tove.” He thought no one ever fell in Jove. In speaking of conversation, ho decided that harmonious people couversed, whilo tuose who wera nat, argned, debated, quarreled, gossiped, and otherwive taiked. Good manuers were the result of beantifal unconsciousuess, while conven- tional manoers wers those which every ouolestned. Good manvers were nov learued, Woman is manuers, and hier intiuenco over man makes bim manuerly, so long as sho was die- croet. When sho ceasod 1o bo thot sho was no longer & woman, but weut over to tho other wdo, Dabtos’ mannars were good if they wero doalists, Lut the moment any conventioual teaching by some aunt, or graudma, or mother commenced, theu the manners wero epoiled. Wiih thio lovo of beauty cama a ci.art of man- ners, and by this, or tho oxpression of sowe Dbenutiful thougit, plain poonle wore often malo veautiful. Our affectivny, thoughts, and idezs ware constantly making 1 more beautiful or erading us, but whooaver sas beautifulcommand- ed the worid. Harnionious peopla wero tho most beautiful, while imperious, wiiful women should Do black as Erebus, As soonas beauty was born, culture began. The ideaists were built over the evex. the mn- terialiets from belind, Darwin aud Swedenborg were both reaching the sziua conelusion, but Dar- nin was Argwing from the waterialist's side, whiie 8wedenborg aud others wero arguing from tho side of mind. Darwin began at the bottom, and arrived atman; thoro bo ktopped. Idealists started ot God and went down to nothing, whicl was the coriect way. Conversation could not be kept up, nor can peoolo lise in communi- tics becnuso they were uot acquuinted with themsalves, Idealists bad tho best of it. They sat in tho clouds and vio#ed tho world below, and, thongh they got the reputation of being usecless, and it was #aid of them that thev did not know enongh to carn = dollar, still (hey wero the practical peo- ple. Thoy created the “ideas, and it was their idess which wote worked ont. The beautifalimagoe which the sculptor gives to the world, existed before it was ever cast in clay, and the bridge wag built 1n the architeet’s mind bofore the tim- ber was hewn or the stona quarried.

Michael Angelo wau very dark, and ail powar, brato force, whiln Raplisel was fair, aud o difforent. Plato, bo thought, must have been the fairest of the Grecks. Fanuy Kemblo never arrived at hnrmon‘y. 8he had ek forca.

Ladies would bave called bor plaiu unless they Lad looked into her aves. Aud she walked like 2 sibyl filled with mystorions kuowledge, " Might she uot Lo called aggressive 7" ssked the #ame iuterlocutor, **She could say things tlat wonld make an era in poopleslives, Scorn aud satire were perhaps tho terms to apply to her, but she was magnavimous, and the cadenco of hor voica was an apology whon she had wronged auy one."

Another ladv quoriod, “*Does ano grow leas practical from becoming more cultivated ?” Alr, Alcott thiought thoy oughtto bo moro 8o, but sumo distauce must be altowed for tho working out of the thougbt. ~Ho cousidoted T.umerson tho most highly caltivated, practical, and ideal of mon, Khould a siranger goiutoaciy and ask who read Emerson, whou Lo found that per- sou he would have found the centro of iutellect ual calture of that city.
