"The Marble Faun."
EXTRACTS FROM HAWTHORNE'S NEW WORK. I
[Published by Tickncr and Field, Boston?for sal? !
by J. C. Orr, Wheeling.]
DOXATELLO AND THE MARBLES.
I The realization of the Antique Fuun, in
the person of Donatello. gave ft more vivid
, character to nil these, marble ghosts.? I
Why should not each statue grow warm
with life l Antinous might lift bis brow,!
nnd tell us why he is forever sad. The '
I#3'cian Apollo might strike his lyre; nnd,
at the first vibration, the Faun in red mar
ble, who keeps up a motionless dance,
should frisk gayly forth, leading yonder
Satyrs, with shaggy goat-shanks. to clatter
their little hoofs upon the floor, and all
join hands with Donatello ! Bacchus, too, !
a roSy flush diffusing itself over his time- !
stained surface, could come down from his i
pedestal, and oiler a cluster of purple grapes I
to Donatcllo's lips; because the god re- |
cognizes him as the woodland elf who so j
often shared his revels. And here, in this j
sarcophagus, the exquisitely carved figures
might assume life, and chase one another
round its verge with that wild merriment
which is so strangely represented on those
old burial coffers; though still with some j
suhlc allusion to death, carefully veiled. I
but forever peeping forth amid emblems of j
mirth and riot.
MIRIAM. THE ARTIST.
Miriam had great apparent freedom of |
intercourse; her manners were so far from
evincing shyness, that it seemed easy to '
become^nc'qnninted with her, and not ?.iiffi? j
cult to develop u casual acquaintance into .
intimacy. Such, at least, was the imprcs- j
sion which she made, upon brief contact, j
but not such the ultimate conclusion of:
those who really sought to know her. So j
airy, free and affable was Miriam's deport- j
ment towards all who came within her 1
sphere, that possibly they might never be j
conscious of the fact; but so it wns. that
they did not get on, and were seldom any .
farther advanced into her good graces to- i
day than yesterday. By some subtle qual
ity, she kept people at a distance, without ;
so much as letting them know that they j
were excluded from her inner circle. She j
resembled ouc of those images of light j
which conjurers evoke and cause to shine j
before us, in apparent tangibility, only an j
arm's length beyond our grasp: we make ;
a step in advance, expecting to seize the j
illusion, but find it still precisely so far
out of our reach. Finally society began j
to recognize the impossibility of getting
nearer to Miriam, and gruflly acquiesced, i
NEEDLE WORK.
There is something extremely pleasant, !
and even touching?at least, of very sn oot, ;
soft, mid winning effect?in this peculiari- I
ty of needle work, distinguishing men from J
women. Our own sex is incapable of any !
such by-play aside from the main business i
of life: but women?bo they of what earth- :
ly rank they may, however gifted with in
tellect or genius, or endowed with awful
beauty?have always some little handi- j
work ready to fill up the tiny gap of every J
vacant moment. A needle is familiar to
the fingers ofthem all. A queen, no doubt, j
plies it on occasions; the woman-poet can ?
use it as adroitly ns her pen; the woman's eve |
that has discovered a new star, turns from '
its glory to send the polished little instru
ment gleaming along the hem of her Lor- j
j chief, or to darn a casual fray in her dress. ;
And they have the advantage of us in this ?
respect, The slender thread of silk orcot
ton keeps them united with the small, fa- '
miliar, gentle interests of life, the continu- i
ally operating influences of which do so j
much for the health of the character, and j
carry off what would otherwise he a dan
gerous accumulation of morbid sensibility.
A vast deal of human sympathy runs along
this electric line, stretching from the throne
! to the wicker chair of the humblest seam
j stress, and keeping high and low in a spe- j
cies of communion with th*ir kindred be
ings. Mcthinks it is a token of healthy !
and gentle characteristics, when women of
accomplishments and high thoughts love j
i to sew, especially as they are never more
! ait home with their own hearts than when j
I so occupied.
THE STUDIO.
The room had the customary aspect of a
painter's studio; one of those delightful
spots that hardly seem to belong to the !
actual world, but rather to be the outward
type of a poet's haunted imagination,
and half-developed hints of beings and
objects grander and more beautiful than
we can anywhere find in reality. The
windows were closed with shutters, or
deeply curtained, except one, which was
partly open to a sunless portion of the
sky, admitting only from high upward j
that partial light which with its strongly |
marked contrast of shadow, is the first j
requisite towards seeing objects pictorially. :
Pencil-drawings were pinned against the j
wall or scattered on the tables. 17uframed ]
canvases turned their backs on the spccta- j
tor, presenting only a blank to the eye, :
and churlishly concealing whatever riches
of scenery or human beauty Miriam's skill
had depicted on the other side.
niLDA.
This young American girl was an ex
ample of the freedom of life which it is j
possible for a female artist to enjoy at |
Rome. She dwelt in her tower, as free to I
descend into the corrupted atmosphere of j
the city beneath, as one of her companion j
doves to fly downward into the street;?
all alone, perfectly independent, under her j
own sole guardianship, unless watched j
over by the Virgin, whose shrine she j
tended: doing what she liked, without a :
suspicion or a shadow upon the snowy i
whiteness of her famo. The customs of
artist life bestow suvb iiberiy upou_ the
sex, which is elsewhere rtfWwcWd within
so much narrower limits; nod it is perhaps
an indication that, whenever we admit
women to a wilder scope of pursuits and
professions, we must also remove the
shackles of our present uuvention.il
rules, which would then become an in
sufferable restraint on either ui.tid or wife.
The system seems to vvoik uuexceptiooably
in Rome; nr.d in many other ?"ses, as in
Hilda's, purity of heart and 1 ?.tr 'Mow
ed to asseit themsel **e.= , n::d to be their
own proof and security, to a degree un
known in the society of other cities.
THE SYLVAN DANCE.
As Miriam and Donatcllo emerged from
among the trees, tbe musician scraped,
tinkled, or blev.'. each according to his
various kind of instrument, more inspir
ingly than ever. A dark-cheeked little
girl, with bright black eyes, stood by
slinking a tambourine set round with
tinkling bells, and thumping it on its
parchment head. Without interrupting
his brisk, though measured movement,
Donateilo snatched away this unmelodi
ous contrivance, and flourishing it above
his head, produced music of indescribable
potency, still dancing with frisky step, and
striking the tambourine, and ringing its
little bells, all in one jovinl act. It might
be that there was magic in the sound, or
contagion, at least, in the spirit which had
got possession of Miriam and himself, for
very soon a number of festal people were
drawn to the spot, and struck into the
dance, singly, or in pairs, .is if they were
all gone mad with jolity. Among them
were some of the plebeian damsels whom
we meet bareheaded in the Roman streets,
with silver stilettos thrust through their
glossv hair; the contandinas, too, from the
Campnpna,' and the villages, with their
rich and picturesque costumes of scarlet
and all bright hues, snch us fairer maidens
might not venture to put on. Then came
the modern Roman from Trasteverc, per
chance, with bis old cloak thrown about
him like a toga, which anon, as his active
motion heated him, he flung aside. Three
French soldiers capered freely into the
throng, in wide scarlet trousers, their
short swords dangling at their sides; aud
three German nrtists in gray flaccid hats
and flaunting beards; and one of the pope's
Swiss guardsmen in the strange motley
garb which Michael Angelo contrived for
them. Two young English tourists (one
of them a lord) took contadinc partners
and dashed in, as did also a shaggy man
in goat-skin breeches who looked like rus
tic Pan iu person, and footed it as merrily
as he. Besides the above there was a
herdsman or two from the Campagna, and
a few peasants in sky-blue jackets, and
small-clothes tied with ribbons at the
knees; haggard and sallow were tliese last,
poor serfs, having little to cut and nothing
but tbe malaria to breathe: but still they
plucked up a momentary spirit and joined
hands in Donatello'3 dance.
a sculptor's studio.
The studio of a sculptor is generally but
a rough and dreary-looking place, witn a
gool deal the aspect, indeed, of a stone
mason's workshop. Hare floors of brick
or plank, and plastered walls; an old chair
or two, or perhaps only a block of marble
(containing, however, the possibility of
ideal grace within it) to sit down upon;
some hastily scrawled sketches of nude
figures on the whitewash of the wall.
These last are probably the sculptor's ear
liest glimpses of ideas that may hereafter
be solidified into imperishable stone, or
perhaps may remain as impalpable as a
dream. Next there are a few very roughly
modelled little figures in clay or piaster,
exhibiting the second stage of the idea as
ii advances toward a marble immortality;
and then is seen the exquisitely designed
shape' of clay, more interesting than even
the final marble, as being the intimate pro
duction of tbe sculptor himself, moulded
throughout with his loving hands, and
nearest to his imagination and heart. In
the plaster-cast, from this clay model, the
beauty of the statue strangely disappears,
to shine forth again with pure, white ra
diance. in the precious marble of Carrara.
MECHANICAL SKILL.
In Italy, there is a class of men whose
merely mechanical skill is perhaps more
exquisite than was possessed by the an
cient artificers, who wrought out the de
signs of Praxiteles; or, very possibly, by
Praxiteles himself. Whatever of illusive
representation can be effected in marble,
they are capable of achieving, if the ob
ject be before their eyes. The sculptor
has but to present these men with a plas
ter-cast of his design, and a sufficient
block of marble, aud tell them that the
figure is imbedded in the stone, and must
be freed from its encumbering superfluities,
and, in due time, without the necessity of
his touching the work with his own finger,
he will see before him the statue that is to
make him renowned. His creative power
has wrought it with a word.
TJ1REE AMERICAN ARTISTS.
Wo must forego the delight of illumina
ting this chapter with personal allusions
to mcu whose renown glows richly on
canvas, or gleams in the white moonlipht
of marble. Otherwise we might point to
an artist who has studied nature with such
tender love that she takes him to her inti
macy, cnobling him to reproduce her in
landscapes that seem the reality of a bet
ter earth, and yet are but the truth of the
very scenes around lis, observed by the
painter's insight and interpreted for us by
his skill. By his magic, the moon throws
her light far out of the picture, and the
crimson on the beholder's face. Or we
might iudicate a poet-painter, whose song
has the vividness of picture, and whose
canvas is peopled with angels, fairies, and
water-sprites, done to the ethereal life, be
cause he saw them face to face in bis poet
ic mood. Or we might bow before an ar
tist who has wrought too sincerely, too
religiously, with too earnest a feeling, and
too delicate n touch, for the world at once
to recognize how much toil and thought
are compressed into the stately brow of
Prospero aud Miranda's maiden loveliness;
or from what a depth within this painter's
heart the Angel is leading forth Si. Peter.
BOMB AT SIGHT.
Emerging from the court-yard of the
edifice, they looked upward and saw the
sky full of light, which seemed to have a
deiicate purple or.crimson lustre, or, at
least, some richer tinge than the cold,
white moonshine of other skies. It gleam
ed over the front of the opposite palace,
showing the architectural ornaments of its
cornice and pillared portal, as well ns the
iron-barred basement windows, that gave
su<-h a prison-like aspect to the structure;
and the shnbbiness and squalor that lay
along its base. A cobbler was just shut
ting up his little shop, in the basement of
tbi* palace; ft cigar vender's lantern flared
I in t'ue b'nst That came through the iirch
I way: a French sentinel paced to and fro
i before the portalj n homeless . dog, that
! haunted thereabouts, barked as obstrep
i erously at the party as if be were the do
mestic guardian of the precincts. The air
was quietly foil of the noise of falling
[ water, the cause of which was nowhere
visible, though apparently near at hand.
; This pleasant, natural sonnd, not unlike
that of a distant cascade in the forest,
may be beard in many of the Roman
streets and piazzas, wlien the tumult at
the city is hushed; for consuls, emperors,
and popes, the great men of every Bge,
have found no better way of immortali
zing their memories, than by the shifting,

The Italian cliinale robs age of its rev
erence. and makes it look newer than it 19.
Not the Colosseum, nor tbo tombs of the
Appian Way. nor tue oldest pillar in tue
Forum, nor any other Romas ruin, be it as
dilapidated as it may, ever give the impres
sion of venerable antiquity which we gath
er, along with the ivy, from the gray walls
of an English abbey or castle. And yet
every brick or stone which we pick up
among the former, had fallen ngc3 befora
the latter was begun. This is owing to
the kindliness with which nature takes an
English ruin to her heart, covering it with
ivy, as tenderly as Robin Redbreast cover
ed the babes with forest leaves. She
strives to make it a part of herself, gradu
ally obliterating the handiwork of man,
and supplanting it with her own mosses
and trailing verdure, till she has won the
whole structure back. But in Italy, when
ever man has once hewn a stoue, nature
forthwith relinquishes her right to it, and
never lays her finger on it again. Age af
ter age finds it bare and naked, in the bar
ren sbunshine, and leaves it so. Besides
this natural disadvantage, too, each suc
ceeding century, in Rome, has done its
best to ruin the very ruins, so far as their !
picturesque effect is concerned, by stealing
awav the marble and hewn stone, and
leaving only yellow bricks, which never j
I can look venerable.
