MADAME CHAMINADE.
' Madame Chaminade, like Felix . Mendelssohn, the centenary or whose birth we shall he celebrating in February,; owes her popularity to the charm and delicacy of her compositions. She has lately taken the American public, by storm, j her descriptions of her works must be said' to rival, some of tho most lofty flights of the York reporters' picturesque \prose, with the advantage that springs from genuine feeling. Thus "she has said of her wonderful dream music that in some cases it has embodied "arcades of mimosa trees trembling in the' light winds"; in others "glimpses of the Mediterranean*;blue.and mysterious, rnshing into far-off silvery perspectives'."
