In spired at early age seith enthusiasm for that art, which, at his time, was in the most deplorable state of imbecility, he advanced it to maturity and . vigor; laid the foendation for immortal fame to himself, and placed the Bri.ih School in bold com petition with that of Ancient Rome. Like the great Mietiart. Asiezeo, and Itarnae:, he feund the Arts degraded to the lowest point of insignificant tameness ; and, like them, he exalted painting to the summit, or very near it, of perfeCtion. In the same age, and cotempontry with him, arose two other great and hiehly eminent Artists, who equaled in their respeetive lines, any of the ancient masters ; and beemeathed to posterity, many extraotainare fiae tOr the admiration of Englishmen and ere imitation of Artists. • The mines of Wit V) and G INsnne aeon will he au benour to the British nation, and to her Mal:4lly. The county of Devon also Flve birth to llensoe, iTe VIP I' RYE, COSWAY. and NOITUCOT la The lat ter gratlernan has long been known to the public, by his cerreft and spirited representations of ani mals, and eirds of prey. Of the latter, is the pic ture (No. LI) in this 1'111;11;6011, which represeins P'a'ten a Serpent. This majestic bird is de lineated with great vigour and spirit of pencil, whilst its chara&er is strongly derided in the situation a nd attion chosen by the Artist. The portraits of T ee . Sp.-t sow (Mr. Acbton and Mr. lloste, No. 113,) are drawn and coloured with rigid attention to na ture ; and the spaniels and morn. carne, in the same pidare, are equally faithful. ladeed, Mr. N. seems to look at Nature thmugh a clear eel• tiara/ me dium, and represents his objects with elual fidelity. being contrary to fai 4 istokle praMiee, our A rti , t's piattres look cold, and tame, by the side of glaring colours, and exaggerated effeds. lUs portrait of the celebrated speculative philosopher, Godwin, (No. st(i); Dr. YrAlter, (No. trfl); and the Stagier ost the Nowt if CieIINVOIS, (No. 13,') ; are executed with muds truth and liarnior.y of colouring ; we know they are forcible likenesses, and we are ria.kivAalle enough to think, that this is the fret :writ of portrait ; for all the fascinating powers of c'.lours, are but poor substitutes for this valuabk natality. (No. 193) is an friarre, representing the /spot Sa rinir as a :,211 attend lig biz Fled, which, as emblematic of intiocenae, is composed of lambs. This may be considered as the triatifted historical pure in the present Exhibition Nlr. N. has two other portrtits, (No. 40), Cipaii Brooking, cf the navr ; and (N o. ti), R. Lei:eikr, Eq. both o f whi c h are good likenesses. • The produCtions of Mr. TV R pencil are of that extraordinary kind, that they must ores itably cell forth con.iderable praise or ceasare. The man of genius and science will feel and see like the Fainter, and like him appreciate his works in pro portion to their superiority and sublimity. 'the ef fulgence of great genius is not to be I eikcd at by mechanical eyes, nor are her sparks ui be analizod tsy simple processes. Mr. TEKNER has evidently derived unproven:se:li from his continental tour, and with wondeitul labour and facility has p r . e la i ed four paintings and two drawings sie.:e his return in last o:tober. A view of the French galleries has stimulated his native energy, and the scenery of Switzerland and Savoy has furnished him sublime features for his powers and pencil. For truth of conception, and nehness of execution, Mr. TURNER ranks with A REY NOLDS and a Wt i. 50201, with whom, and a few , other Engliall Artists, have combined to vindicate the character of their country from the invidious censures of .1:u Dos, lvloeresecise, and Wienxt mat'', (See BC:Hl:jet of litiltshsre. vol. i. p. 216.) who have contended with more sophistry than argument that the climate of England is Mi mi, al to the genius of Painting.

The scene is singularly fine, and the figures, which are many, are drawn and grouped in a style far superior to any of this Artist's former pandlidions. But perhaps the Musts are rather too powerful in the distance, espe cially when we consider that the time chosen is when the sun is near the horizon, and when the distances always recede ill an aerial, soft, and gra duating manner. Where the talents of man so nearly approximate excellence, we perceive the smallest . defeats, appear more con,picuous by comparison. The face of beauty is aft:nerd by the smallest deformity, which on an indifferent countenance would not be noticed.

C'r-Tal" OF KING'S BENC:I, Weinitsscrt, NT4v The business of the Court this day, though of the hignest importauze, as it effects the public morals, vet was of a nature which readers a public journal t very improper medium olconvering it to the pub lic ; we shall therefore be extremely brief in referring to it. The Rev. ilr.Ponisthorpe, a Clergyman ofSnmer setshire, a married man, and possesing a very con •.iderable property by his wife, was brought into Court to receive judgment for a crime we cannot mention. l k was remanded to Newgate, in order that the Court might take time it) consider of a sentence adequate to his guilt. Baptista Bertazzi, and Mrs. Aiken, were also brought up iqr judgment for vending indecent pt inns and drawings. They were remanded until Monday se'imiAla. Several smugglers, from Cornwall, were brought into Court to receive judgment upon convictions for obstructing revenue oilicars, but the Court deferred sent..•uce on them. The Court rose at one o'clock, and Lord Ellen borough proceeded to Guildhall, woete he sat at Viri Prim:, and disposed of a few causes, all of which were uninteresting to the public. COURT OF F.XCHEIIUFR, M 11f .J. ARCINDTACON %P. BOA% r.S. In this case, the Plaintiff, a Clergyman, com plained that the Defe;dant, who is a Farmer, had not tendered his tythes according to the cus tom of the parish. It was contended that cer tain sheaves of barley should have been shocked, and one out of ten of such shocks ought to have been delivered to the Plaintiff; instead of which, every tenth sheaf had been presented, contrary to the es tablished custom and the interest of the Clergyman, who considered himself ent:tied to receive tythe of this description in the shock. It was not denied that the Defendant had paid his tythes, but that they were given in a proper manner. On the part of die Defendant it was contendei, that the barley could not have been shocked with out doing it a material injury by preventing the air from coming to it, and that the tythe had been fair ly and honestly paid. The arguments arising from this case, occupied a considerable portion of the day. The Court however, were of opinion, that the Plaintiff had no reasonable grounds for com plaint, as he had received his tythes according to the statute of the common law, the Defendant had not refused to pay the same, nor had it been proved that he had attempted to behave unfair. The Court could not see what injury had induced the Plaintiff to bring the Fresent bill, therefore de cPed that the latter pos , essed no legal right to demand any further payment of tythes than that which had been made by the Defenda:.t.

Wednesday, in consequence of an information instituted by the Society for the S : npression of Vice and Immorality, several young 11,C11 were charged with having a Theatre uthicr the title of the, TimLan Society," in Creen-street, 'l'heobald's Road, which appeared to have been finished in a tasty style, laid out in boxes, pit, and galleries, capable of containing upwards of 400 pernr.ns, to see plays. The pieces tor representation, ptinted on cards, were sold to the informants for two shillings each, to sec the performance of The Heir at 14.w,with The Pyue ; and tin- another representation, which was to have taken place on Tuesday night, namely, Tl, Poor Gentleman, with a farce. The officers who went into the house to disperse the audience, declared upon oath that great indecencies were observed a:long the :t.l.)rs and actresses. A proprietor of the Theatre, and several perfor mers, denied all the charges, stating that they, with a number of respedable young people, subscribed mo ney among themselves for the support of the Theatre for their amusement, and that of their friends, there fore made no advantage of it ; but it was proved that tickets were sold by a servant belonging to the house, who partly confessed 'it. The Magisti ate, in consideration of their engaging to close th, Theatrc, dismis!ed them with an admo nition; bin it is in contemplation to india the real landlord, for letting the place for such a i.uri)use.
