Miscellaneous. IN LOVE WITH A PAINTER. Jacques Bruhiere is an artist whose mythological pictures have a most de¬ lightful modern air. His Grecian god¬ desses look like Parisiennes ; their wind¬ blown hair, their high-heeled sandals and a peculiar twirl given to their dra oery have captivated the Parisian ladies. So they crowd Jacques’ studio and im¬ plore him to let them sit for Dianas and Andromedas. But he is a most unro mantic fellow, and is swayed by no con¬ siderations other than those of gain. Although be is but thirty he has gained fame and some fortur and he is so in¬ dustrious that he from useless words and time-coi : vs—that is to say, women and bore A year ag®, *** nr exhibit closed, Jacques iletfc. to go on a sketching tour. So h «ed his trunk, , assisted by his friend, Eugene de Lassi, | fumed, and when It was was the a end nice bidding servant the little address entered adieu note, was to with daintily his written a studio, note. per¬ in the most delicate hand imaginable. IIo read it, frowned, and. rumpling it up, threw it on the floor. “Confound the women 1” he cried. “What’s the matter ?” asked his friend. “Why, I am sucli an unlucky fellow,” replied Jacques. There’s always some Woman or other bothering me, writing about how she admires my paintings, and how she’d like to see me, and all sort of things. Just as if a man should say lie likes to see my paintings because he admired the cut of my beard. “Look,” lie said, picking up the letter, “address Madam Leonie,” such a street and such a number.>’ “But,” said Eugene, who was read¬ ing the note, “it’s very well written, I assure you, full of most delicate wit. What are you going to do with it V” “Oh, you literary men 1” groaned Jacques. “What am I going to do with it ? Why, burn it, of course. What do you suppose I atn going to do with it ?” “I’ll tell you what to do with it, 2 said Eugene, “you’re going away- - “Yes.” “Then give it to me.” “Why ; what’ll you do with it?” said Jacques, with a stare. “Well, I’ll play painter,” replied Eu¬ gene. “I’m not much of one, but I can daub a little—enough at all {events to deceive a woman in love. And I’ll find out who Madam Leonie is—that’s only part of tlie name, I’m sure.” So it was settled Jacques Bruhiere, painter,BetoffforSwitzerland,andEu gene de Lassi, man of letters, remained A *f ca r;,*“"*••• —“«• fancy , had painted her as young and * bluuette ’ an(l had the most delightful no3e, the sparkling eyes, the most glorious hair and tho most adorably little hands and feet that Eugene had ever seen, jj e flattered himself that he was correctly m;ule ^ for his ro,e - IIis ve,vet a ™™ aud jaunty hut were a little too clean, ; perhaps, but that was a good fault. Madame Leonie wanted her portrait painted, and it was very difficult for her to decide how it should be done. She wavered long. One day she would be Omphale; the next she had decided that to ire represented as Salome was necessary to her place, but when Eu »> „ pnc ene ha nart d made rn ' K!e his I>IS nreimratinns preparations, his his fickle goddess decided that Delilah was lhe cll ' llac *' er t,ia ^ SU R^1 her. And t,,en slie would wander around the stu and drape herself with the barbaric stuffs used by long-gone models, and handle the corioos weapons and exam¬ ine tire porcelains. And then she would *ay that she was weary and would Come day. And she would go, leav > n K Eugene de Lassi deeper in love than ever. As for him he was in a dream. He has retired from the world. At his own quarters his door was daily stormed by publishers, by managers, by printer’s boys, by creditors and by friends. But no or - e •»«* where he had gone. He 1,a d told his servants he was going away but hAl not told them where. It was wrong* decide dly wrong ; but he took a certain ferocious joy in it when 1m thought how he himself had once pur sued these same editors and managers. Eugene had at last discovered that his immortal was a widow, wealthy and of good family. Her full name was Leouie de Noras. He had never told his love, but that she was blind to it was impossible. Yet she was certainly blind to his painting, for she expressed her admiration for it with an enthusi astn that made Eugene wince. But one day when he was, as usual attempting to transfer her to canvass, a particular¬ ly atrocious tree which she introduced in the hack ground attracted her atten¬ tion. “Jacques, said she, “don’t you think that you are—that you are—well, that you are losing a little of your skill ?” “What ?” shouted Eugene. “I mean—that is—I’m afraid that I keep you so lunch from your work that—” “I orily hope that you may keep me from it forever,” returned Eugene. And so the dangerous mome it passed. But this state of affairs could not last forever. One fine day, as Eugene was seated on a divan thinking of his lady love, who had just departed, who should enter nut Jacques Bruhiere. Yes, thore he wasjjith his attendant carrying his umbreiqi, bis sketch-books, his camp stool^ his baggage—a true artist just from the country. The false oi*e J4c«i^^Ji3’U»»iight that his dream was over. .Had he been a Borgia be would have slain his friend. As he was not pressed Iiis hand warmly, and bade welcome. But how could he extricate himself from 1 1 is dilemma? How could he swer to a high-spirited woman the ception lie had pr;icticed upon her ? to persuading Jacques to consent to arrangement for keeping up the decep¬ tion, that was out of the question; where his art was concerned the painter prove as deaf as a post, and as ageable as a balky horse. So Eugene was puzzled. Finally a bright idea occurred to him. “Why not,” thought lie, “give a turn to the affair ? if pro;>erly done, Leonie will be disarmed. She is easily moved to laughter, and then I will ex¬ plain and beg her forgiveness.” Alas! Poor Eugono’s idea was not a happy one. The next day when Leonio api>eared it was Jacques who met her at the door. He was in a blouse, cap, and car ried a palette and brushes. “(Jan I see Monsieur Bruhiere !” she asked, with some- little surprise, “That is my name, madam,” replied the painter. “You Jacques Bruhiere 1” she said, with an amused laugh; and she pushed by him and entered the studio. “You the great painter? No, no!” and she seated herself and looked at biro deflant iy. But if she was at her ease in tho stu¬ dio lie was more so. Iler quick woman’s eye noted this,and on the easel there was begun a canvas m which siie recognized the master’s touch. Leonie was becom¬ ing ill at ease. She picked up a little Hindoo god which stood on the table beside her, and fingered it nervously. Her hands trembled, the little monster slipped from them aud dashed in pieces on the floor. The artist stepped to the wall and rung the bell. The door opened and the servant onteroj, clad iu livery and wear¬ ing an apron—rendered necessary by the fact of his cleaning brushes. “Did monsieur ring V” he asked. Leonie stared at him and grew very white. “Yes,Jean,’’ replied the artist. “Gatb er up the fragments of this trifle, which madam has unfortunately broken. Now,’’said he, “if madam will kindly inform me to what I owe the honor of this visit—” lie stopped. Iler white set face, her staring eyes, frightened him, I” she hissed; a base laoky ! ! and 1 have loved thls heartless, cruel ly ir W wretch !” With a sudden impulse of fury she snatched up a pretty toy, a silver poign ard arc, which wnicn lav lay noon upon the me tame, table and ana sprang at Kusrene. Quick as a flash the artist dashed between them. Ihepoign ard struck Eugene in the side, inflicting , a very deep wound. As be did so, uttered a shriek and fainted away, Vo. 33. Eugene’s comedy had become a trage dy. ‘•Truly a pretty sight of the studio of an honest, liard-workiug painter,” groaned Jacques, as he gazed upon the two prostrate forms. This comes of obliging your fi lends. Catch me doing it again!” * Three years had passed. Leon it* was in the brilliant saloon of the Comtesse de Sagone, whose house was always filled with the literary men of tho day, and .she invariably secured the literary lion. She was making her way through the brilliant throng toward Loonie. “My dear,” said she, when she reach - ed her, you have read the novel of which all Paria is talking “Les Deux Princesses?” “Yes,” said Leouie, “it’s a charming work.” “Do you know the author ?” “Eugene de lassi ? No ! Is lie here this evening ?” “Yes, and I want to present him to you. Ah, there he Is 1” and in another moment there stood before Leouie—tho false painter. For a moment she hesitated; but the old spell reasserted itself, and she found herself listening almost against her will for his pleas for pardon. And lie plead¬ ed his cause most eloquently. “I am half inclined not to forgive you,” she said at length, “you acted abominably, you know you did.” “I acted like a fool and a knave,” said Eugene, “and you ought never to pardon me; but you will, won’t yon ?” “Well,” said the beauty, semi-ruluct antly, “If yon will be a very good boy—” “Yes.” “And never deceive roe again—” “Never.” “Aud never paint any more such wretched trees—” “Never.” “Then I forgive you for having played the servant.” “But l want to play it again.” She looked at him inquiringly. “I want to be your servant The first child was a boy.
