I, of course, think that to be the queen of song is higher rank than to lower caste at courts; but, it appears, It is misapprehension onmy part. Among the bridal gifts was a hand- some and beautifully executed arabesque pendant, composed of pearls, diamonds and a large turquoise, with enamel scrolls, suspended from a large gold chain, the gift of Signor Mario; while Mme. Grisi offered a pair of gold and coral earrings, which had belonged to the Queen of Napies. They are carved in the shape of Etruscan vases, the top being formed of gold, with a solid carved coral bull's head, As long as the diva’s name appears on playbilla it will be Mme.

A discussion has been going on in the alumni of thy Andover (N. II.) Theological Seminary on the question “What is the duty of pastors with regard to popular amusements?” The Rev. Mr. Mead, of Nashua, N. H., read an essay on the subject, from which we select the following atrait-laced points:— At the outset he protested strongly against the popular outcry as to the necessity of providing new and more abundant amusements. ‘That there is a positive necessity for some recreation, he said, for relaxatio from toi. and unbending of the strained faculties, and that certain amusements are tn theiu- selves legitimate, no one will question; but fit is es- sential'y vicious to make pleasure the object of life, even though the kind of pleasure be lanocent, ‘The pre- sent demand isa demani for intemperate indulgence. ‘The vast ado which some Christians are making for new methods of amusing the young, hoping thereby Lo entice them to virtue, is fearfully inereas- ing the evils they depres . Appealing to the love of amusement, already too mueh indulged, 1s only. feeding the sensuous nature and deadening the moral sensibilities, and making it more diMcult to reach the heart for good. What is most needed now is to control and restrain, not invent and supply. The main dificu'ty is in Onding the true limit of modera- uon. Some of the best Christian thinkers evade the question—say it 18 a matter for the individual con- science—that each one must cherish the spirit of Christ and ali will be right. Such advice is practically useless, What is wanted is tizht upon the point how the Christian shail walk in the circumstances in which he is place, and how those who are swallowed up in pieasure seeking may be won from it aud brought to Curist, We must try to control the amusements of society in genera! and grapple with the question, “What to condemn, what to tolerate.” There are four things whica seeme! to him clear. First—Chrisiian teachers miust assert the essential wickedness of all amusements which are enjoved ouly bya depraved taste. Second—They must cau- tion against amusements which, if innocent possibiy in themselves, are of evil tendency or evil from their associations and concomitants. ‘Third—They must studionsly avoid denouncing aa wicked those which are neither right nor wrong; while, fourth, they must cake care to assert the truth that needless and excessive dcvotion to amusements in themselves in- nocent ls wroag. Movements of MissionaricsA Farewell Gathering in Boston.
