��you wil�ϻ����������и߶�ȫ������ϵ��ʽ,���������иߵ��������l see,�� said rivarol, ��that these haughty romans whom m. louis david has brought into fashion with his cold, hard painting, will bring us [285] through a period of cato and brutus. it is the law of contrast. after the solemn airs of louis xiv., the orgies of louis xv.; after the suppers of sardanapalus-pompadour, the milk and water breakfasts of titus��louis xvi. the french nation had too much esprit, they are now going to saturate themselves with stupidity.��she brought, of course, many letters of introduction, of which the first she availed herself was to the countess von thoum, at whose soir��es she met all the most important personages in vienna, and also many french emigr��s amongst whom, to her great joy, was her old friend the comte de vaudreuil.��but you were thinking of giving up your business altogether,�� said she.{337}she sent the countess woronsoff to her father��s estate
since the adoption of western ideas in decoration and household furniture, the japanese dwellings have lost somewhat in point of attractiveness. our carpets and furniture are out of place in a japanese room, and so are our pictures and statuary. it is a pity that the people should ev���������иߵ��������er abandon their domestic customs for ours, whatever they might do in the matter of military equipment, machinery, and other things that are more or less commercial. japanese men and women are far more attractive in their native dress than in ours, and a japanese house loses its charm when the neat mattings give way to european carpets, and chairs and tables are spread around in place of the simple adornments to which the people were accustomed.��no, but we must try to be friends now.���� marat,they travelled from milan to vienna through the magnificent scenery of tyrol and styria, and arrived safely at the austrian capital, where mme. le brun spent two years and a half happily and prosperously. every one was eager to invite her to their houses, and the numerous portraits she painted made her sojourn in austria as profitable as it was pleasant.outwardly the day�ϻ����������и߶�ȫ������ϵ��ʽs passed precisely as usual. they had made their appointment, and no further allusion or reminder was necessary. each evening brought nearer the hour of azure in that hollow among the empty downs, and he desired neither to shorten nor to lengthen out the days that separated him from it. but to him everything, except that moment, regular but rarely recurring, when her eye sought his with need and love in it,{298} seemed dream-like and unsubstantial. nothing had power either to vex or please him. he was, as always, busy all day, and transacted his own or municipal business with all his usual thoroughness and acute judgment. but it all went on outside him; the terra-cotta cupolas which his industry had reared in the market-place were as unreal as the new system of drainage in the lower part of the town, which he had exerted all his influence to get carried through the obdurate conservatism that pointed to the low-death rate of bracebridge under the old conditions. he got his way; all his life he had been accustomed to dominate and command and organise. then when his day��s work was done, and he returned home for dinner and the ensuing hours, which lately had been so intolerable, he found they irritated him no longer, and the fatuous drip of his wife��s conversation was no more to him than some gutter that discharged not into his house but into the street outside. simply he cared nothing for it, nor, when his failure to get elected to the county club occurred to him, did he care: it ap
