FOREST AND STREAM. 



|Ootobbh 20, 1881. 



Rtjnnisg-Watkb Notes.— We readily con- 

 sent that the Muses bad their birth and rear- 

 ing in the neigoborhood of certain spriogs 

 and streams. This was a wise provision for 

 their subsequent musical education, since it 

 was intended, no doubt, that, they should 

 gather the rudiments from such congenial 

 sources. The Greeks left us no account (as 

 they well might have done) of the technical 

 drill pursued by the nine sisters. However, 

 we m«y suppose that they wrote off their 

 scores from the fluent dictation of their 

 favorite cascades aud streams, and that they 

 scanned, or "sang," all such exercises by 

 the laws of liquid quantity and accent. Per- 

 haps at the same time, the better to measure 

 the feet and mark the cresural pauses, they 

 danced, as thej r sang, over the rippled sur- 

 face of the stream. Nor did the Muses alone 

 love springs and running water, but it would 

 seem that the philharmonic societies of their 

 descendants have had their haunts in like 

 localities ; or was it mere chance that Homer 

 should have lived by the river Meles (hence 

 Melesigenes), or that Plato should have had 

 his retirement
