FOLLE-FARINE. ByOuida. Philadelphia:
pincott & Co. 1871.
According to Ouida this name of F
Farine means," "tot the wheat itself;
"even BO much as the chaff; only the
--from the corn." It ls borne by a girl of
or eight years, -'with limbs moulded
"sculpture and brown as the brook wi
"great lustrous eyes, half savage and
"soft; a mouth like a red pomegranate I
"and straight dark brows-the brows of
"friezes ol Egypt. " Beine Flamma. the mo
of Folle-Farine, was "the most beau
"woman in Calvados, and the most wretch
One fine morning Reine was not to be foi
All that her father, Claudia Flamma, s
was, "She wa? a saint : God took ber."
years later a child stood at the miller's di
The letter she bore was written by the d
Reine; her welcome was a blow which fe
her to the ground. Grandfather Clai
looked at her where she lay, "She wa

"iaaf." Taric, the strongest and fleetest, i
?'most well favored,*' of a tribe of gypi
who had pure Eastern blood in them, with
the grace and gravity of the Oriental, had i
poor Reine in the wood one summer nig
He tells the tale :
She was pure and straight of life; she belie*
in heaven and hell; she was Innocent asl
child unborn; lt was tempting to kill all th
It 1B BO easy to kill it when a woman loves yi
They wandered North and South. Tai
tiring ol his t?y, wanted to get rid of her; c
"she never said a rough word, you know, a
"that makes a man mad." When "a worn
"ls quiet and only looks at you with great s
'-soit eyes, when you strike her-what is o
'.to do?" The mother dies, the child liv?
"Let it go to Hell !" And these were the or
"words of baptism spoken over the namele
"daughter of Taric the gypsy and of Rei;
"Flamma." In her sixth year Taric proposi
to sell the child :
I will make a dancing dog of her for tl
peasant's pastime, and in time ehe will mal
dancing dogs ol the nobles ancl the princes fi
her own sport. It ls a brave life-not
better.
The deformed Pnratos fleeB with the chili
leaves her at Flamma's door and dies in tl
drifting snow. His wanderings, bis eelf-eaci
ace, bis mote fidelity axe painted with a lovln
hand.
Folle-Farine, In the house ot her mother
rather, wonders why "the devil (ber fathei
-had not been good enough to give her a ski
-that would not feel, and veins that would nc
''bleed.'' For Flamma "dashed holy water o
.'her many times; and used a stick to he
.'without mercy." Marcellln, one ot the aven
?rora nf Thormlilnr. la tho oaij- Olcu? Wi rS/Uc
Purine, now ID. her sixteenth year. This ls thi
tsual style of their conversation :
"The . possible ' then ls only-the worse r
'he said slowly.
"Nay ; our friends, the priests, say there li
i -possible* which will give-one day-thi
Owler, who klCs iiie lark, the winsr? ci tili
ark and the lark's power to sing Laus Deo ii
leaven. I do not say-they do."
"The priests !" Ail the scorn of which bei
curved lips were capable curled on them, ant
a deep bate gathered in her eyes-a hate ina
was unfathomable and mute.
"Then there is no 1 possible ' for me," eh<
said bitterly, "if so be that priests hold th<
gifts of it."
"Yes, there is,** he said curtly. "You are i
woman-child and have beauty ; the devil wil
give you one.''
"Always the devil !" she muttered.
"Always the devil !" repealed Marcellln
"For the world ls always of men."
"Il men be devils, they are my brethren,'
she said suddenly ; "why do they, then, sc
hate me ?"
"Because Fraternity is Hate. Cain said so
hut God would not believe him."
Now Folle-Farine was shunned by the com?
munity in which she lived as a sorceress, a
creature ot evil. She was cursed when she
did her duty, and driven away when she tried
lo do good. Marcellln continues his lessons in
ethics until he dies and is burled in a ditch. At
the mill she ls lashed as a hound ls lashed.
The miller mutters that, "work is the only
"thing to drive the devil that begat her out oi
"her ;" for "he believed that the devil had
"polluted his daughter's body and soul, and
"that it was by the foul fiend, and by no earth
"ly lover that she had conceived and borne the
"creature that now abode with him." A new
character appears on the scene. Folle-Farine
enters a tower, whose walls are covered with
drawings of the dead of that fair time when
all the earth was young. On the stone floor
lies a man whom the gods slew "because he
"dared to be too like themselves."
An old man had an ugly daughter, who was
"fair to sight." One day she fled. Months
afterward, a woman drags herself to the Nor?
wegian valley, gives birth to a male child and
dies. They named the child Arslan. In his
twentieth winter he left the valley, and for
many years devoted himself to the study of
art. So entirely did his art possess him that lt
seemed to have left him without other pas?
sions. With humanity he had little sympathy.
But his labors availed him nothing. His works
were great, but they were such as the public
mind deems Impious. They were penetrated
with an acrid satire and an intense despair.
The world, "which only cares for a honeyed
"falsehood and a gilded gloss in every art,
..would have none of them." Envy and an?
tipathy closed, to him, all ways to fame. For
seven days without food, he had lain him
down to .die, when Folie-Farlne-this other
child of sin-discovered his abiding place.
Food and fire must be had. Filling a basket
with bread and wine and oil, she hurries back
to the still insensible Arslan. On her way she
stumbles against a cross, whereupon Ouida re?
marks :
For the name of Christ is used to cover every
crime, by the peasant who cheats his neighbor
of a copper coln, as by the sovereign who
massacres a nation for a throne.
Folle-Farine has stolen; but Arslan, awaking,
ls saved, cursing the unknown charity which
saves him. In secret the girl watches him,
stealing in and out of the old granary, when
he is away. For the first time "she had her
"joy and lear; lor the first time she became
"human." One evening that she had been
stoned and wounded by the mob, Folle-Farine
falls asleep in the granary, and 1? there upon
the return of Arelan, who sketches her as she
Hes. To him women were eexless-"the tools
..for his art; no more." They are frequently
together. The one human voice speaking
lovingly, though not of love, so transforms her
that the miller shall no longer lash her as he
li?ts. "Touch me again," she cried, "and by
"the heaven and hell you prate ol I will kill
.'you." The old man gives lt up/or good.
Yet th? mind ot Arelan, by all ber devotion,
was only luoved to pity. To obtain for h : rr
gold that he may go to a city, and make his
works live in color, Folle-Farlne seeks out
Sartorian, a great noble, who buys of ber at
thirty-fola their value the sequins which bad
adorned her childish head. Interested in her
tale, the Prince promises his help. Hastening
to the distant granary, Folle-Farlne lays her
gold at her idol's feet, to be met with "dis.
"gu?t, anger loathing-even horror." And
now the grand-sire dies; dies spitting on the
crucifix, and casting it forth from him broken
on the ground. Arslau goes to Paris. Afoot
and aweary Folle-Farine follows. After passing
through a prison and a mad-house she reaches
the great city. No temptation has power on
her "because of her great love." Ihe end ap?
proaches. A rsl an ls, again, at death's door.
His fellow-men still denied bim fame and
power. Only gold and the influence of j
rank can save him. These may only come from
Sartorian, who, day by day, month after
month, asks. "Are you tired, Folle-Farlne?'
The struggle Is terrible. At last, she is re?
solved. "For a thing so worthless and loveless
"and despised as she to suffer deadliest shame
"to s ive a life so great as his, was, after all, a
"fate more noble than she could have boped.''
Ere another year had been fully born, the
world spoke in homage, and In wonder, of two
things.
The one, a genius which had sudden! j arisen
In its midst, and taken vengeance lor the long
neglect of bitter years, and scourged the world |
with pitiless scorn until, before this mighty
struggle which it had dared once to deride and
to deny, it crouched trembling; and wondered
and did homage; and said in fear, "Truly ibis
man is great, and truth ls terrible."
The other-the bodily beauty ol a woman; a
beauty rarely seen in open day, but only in the
innermost recesses of a sensualist's palace; a
creature barefooted, with chains of gold about
her ankles, and loose white robes which show?
ed each undulation of the periect limbs, and
on her breast the fires ol a knot of opal; a
creature 'n whose eyes there was one change?
less look, as ot some desert beast taken from
the freedom of the air and cast into the dark?
ness of some unutterable horror; a creature
whose lips were forever mute, mute as the
tortured lips of Lama.
In the spring-time of the year Folie-Farine
lay dead among the reeds on the shores of the
river.
We have deliberately refrained from criti?
cising the plot of this work. It must speak
for itself. The reader must draw his own com?
parison between the fair-haired Northman,
who bas no love but his art, and the dark
browed daughter of the South, who has no
art but ber love. As an expression cf the
tbojght, which unhappily lingers in many
hearts, that the bitterness of an unsought ex?
istence is lil repaid by the barren joy.of living;
as s. protest against the cruel fate which vinita
the father's sin upon the heads ol bis luckless
children; as the utterance of the conviction
that the triumph ol the powers of wrong ls an
evidence ol the decadence ol the power ol
right-this Folle-Farlne may find many read?
ers. It is strong and picturesque and exciting,
while it ls free from the veiled lasciviousness
la which the novelists of the day are wont to
Indulvs. But these merits-positive and neg*
alive-are lost to Flew in the presence of the
fact that the whole plan and execution of this
work are, in the moral sense, which ls the
highest sense, utterly, if splendidly, wrong.

gTANDARD TEXT BOOKS.
By Professor ASA GRAY,
Of Harvard University,
Author of "How Plants Grow," "School and Field
Book of Botany," "Manual of Botany," '-Struc?
tural and systematic Botany," Ac, Ac.
"Botany should be taught in every Behool, and
these VolumeB should be the Text-BookB."-Pto}.
J. S. Davis, University of Virginia.
The publishers beg to call the attention of those
about rorming classes In Botany to the well Known
works by Professor Gray. Having been carefully
revised, they present the latest ana most accurate
principles and developments of the science, and
lt ls sufficient indorsement of them to state that
they are used in almost every noted college, High
School and Seminary In the country, and are rec?
ommended over other series by nine-tenths of the
leading Professors and Botanical Teachers in the
United States.
No author has yet approached Professor Gray In
the rare art of making purely scientific theories
and dry details popular and interesting. From
his charming elementary work "How Plants
Grow." to his more elaborate "Manual," there ls
one simple, concise and yet exhaustive method of
teaching the various grades of the study.
Descriptive circulars, giving full titles aud pri?
ces, will be forwarded by mau, to any address, OD
application.
