" Sabrina," a scene taken from the " , Cornus" of Wil ton, is a very rnastarly' painting. No. 14. " Our Saviour's Agony in the Garden," by G. North cote, and the " Entombing- of Christ," by G. WestalL both Academicians, are on a large scale, and executed with great skill. No. 46. " The Interior of a Brazilian Rancho, in the province of Santo Paulo, with a travelling merchant, his slaves, merchan dise, &r." by C. Landseer, is remarkable for distinctness of cha racter and delicacy of colouring. The grouping is admirably ar ranged,,so as to produce the best effect. No. 47. " The first Interview between the Spaniards and Pe ruvians," by Briggs, is a picture of considerable merit. The de sign is taken from that part of " Robertson's History of America," where lie describes the attempt of the Spaniards to convert the Inca to the Catholic faith, and make him submit to the King of Spain. The Inca refusing, a general massacre of the Peruvians followed. The unsuspecting simplicity of the /nee, and the treacherous designs of the Spaniards are faithfully depicted in their countenances. No. 59. " Catherine and Petruchio," by Stephanoft; the scene taken from the fourth act of the "Taming of the Shrew," where Petruchio says, " Nay, good, sweet Kate, be marry," is one of the hest pictures in the gallery. It is just in conception, and the execution beautiful. The colouring is also tastefully adapted to the character of the scene. No. 74. " Courtship," by E. Wesi, is a beautiful little pic ture. It is full of natural expression. • The "Drinking scene in rierFrieselattz," No. 95, byHoppner, is well executed. It has a distinctiveness of character which im mediately recalls to mind the scene. "Prometheus chained to the. Rock, and the Vllltnre pouncing on him," is a picture well worth examination. One fancies that he sees his efforts to release himself from the rock to which he is chained. :This picture, No. 140, is by IL Wyatt. " The Sultan," by Hurlstone, No. 158, realists the form and expression of countenance which the imagination would satin-ally give to such a personage. The costume is exact, particularly the head-dress. " Short of Cash," No. 180, by Shiels, shows his perception of character, and his capability of giving it individuality. The ex pression of countenance, when nothing is found in the pocket, and the reluctance to take out the hand to prove its emptiness to the person of whom he had already made a purchaie, are admira bly depicted. A Landscape, " Sunset," No. 7, by Mrs. H. Reinagle, exhihits great delicacy of colouring and an agreeable variety of tints. " The Battle of the Mimkeys" is an amusing picture. It paints the tricks of these mischievous little animals to the very life. The artist is Mr. Bristow, and is entitled to great merit, both for the conception and execution of this picture. It is already sold. It is not numbered, but is placed in the middle room. No. 246, " The Sweeps Dancing" is an exquisite little picture. The amusement of the group of children is admirably expressed. There is a harmony in colouring and design, combined with a studious yet unaffected execution, which entitle it to the praise of excellence. The artist is Mr. Gill, by whom there is another painting, of nearly the same size, 225, " The Whistle," of con siderable, though inferior merit. " Othello relating his Adventures," 279, is a fine picture. • Wehave merely selected a few of the most prominent pictures, and which seemed to us most worthy of notice ; but the whole collection may be considered as highly creditable to the character of British artists.

SORE THROATS, HOARSENESS, &c. BUTLER'S ACIDULATED CAYENNE LOZENGES, are particularly recommended for habitual Sore Throats, relaxation of the Uvula, enlargement of the , Ton sils, and that description of hoarseness which arises from relaxa tion of the membranes of the Throat, and the parts contiguous. The Cayenne Lozenge has been found of great utility to such persons as are frequently in the habit of speaking in public; they may, therefore, advantageously be used in the Sena* at the Bar, and in the Pulpit, and the highest testimony in the Musical World his been advanced in their favour, especially in those cases where, from the constant use of the voice, or the influence of a humid atmosphere, the membranes have become relaxed, and di minished in their tone. These Lozenges are also recommended as a stimulus during Field Sports ; they are refreshing, and prevent Sore Throats, Hoarseness, &a. to those who are unaccustomed to exposure in the morning, before the dew has passed off, and iu ruoist'and foggy evenings.

We believe that th e re is no other instance of a cuckoo having been kept over the winter. It is a curiou s circumstance, that i n August, when the young cuckoos migrate, this bird, for two or three days together, made strong and incessant endeavours to break from its confinement.

CA.NITIIELI. AND OTHERS. Mr. HORNE was instructed to apply to his Lordship for a writ or ea•sut rept°. The facts of the case were these :—The plaintiff was possessed of certain tin and copper mines, and issued a prospectus for the purpose of forming a Company. It was to consist of 1,000 shares at 501. a share. The plaintiff was trea surer, and the condition was, that the money was to he paid at the time of subscription. Campbell, one of the defendants, agreed to purchase 100 shares, and paid the suns of 5,0001. ; he was elected a Director, and shortly after, Binns, another of the de fendants, agreed for 100 shares, and gave a bill at twelve months' date in payment for them. Campbell afterwards became dis satisfied with his bargain, and in Deceuiber, 1824, entered into an agreement ►ith Jones, another of the defendants, by which he re linquished the 100 shares, and had 160 shares transferred to him, and an additional transfer of 160 shares for security of the repay ment of the 5,0001. Afterwards, by an agreement between Campbell, Jones, and the plaintiff, it was agreed that the plaintiff should assign his 395 shares for 3,000/. and upwards, to them, and that a bond should be entered into to secure the payment of the said sum to the plaintiff. Jones and Campbell had, since that time, had the management of the mines, and received the monies ; but they refused to complete the agreement with the plaintiff. By a correspondence which the learned counsel then read, it ap peared that Campbell had insinuated that he was about to leave England for Paris. The object of the present motion was to prevent him. -The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that it appeared to him to be so complicated a case,. that he must take it home and read it be fore he decided. Mr. HORNE said, that the petition also prayed au injunction to restrain the sale of effects. The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that if the other were granted, that appeared a matter of course.

Mr. Serjeant ADAM having been heard in support of the rule, The Coma , was of opinion, that as the relator, Monk, had voted at the election of the partici, according to the general rule which had been laithlown, he was not entitled to impeach that election, as it must he presumed he was acquainted with what passed in the corporation, whether he resided there or not.—Rule discharged accordingly.

SS. Yesterday Wm. Cradock, a young man of fashionahle ap pearance, and highly respectable conner.iitui, was opposed by Mr. Woodrouffe on behalf of Mr. Green, a hotel-keeper in Lincoln's inn-fields ; and Mr. M'Gregor appeared in person. It appeared by the iniolvent's evidence that be had for merly been an -Ensign in the 43d Regiment of Foot, but he sold his commission in 1820 for 400/., and that the proceeds were- re ceived by Mr. Morton, of Gray's-inn-lane (his agent), who after wards absconded with all the money, of which he never received a farthing. In consequence of his leaving the army, his father's displeasure was incurred, and he reduced ha annual allowance from 400/. to 1401. a-year, which he is now in the receipt of.— The debt claimed by Mr. Green was contracted in the summer of 1821, at which time he was not aware of any diminution in his allowance, and he considered the proceeds safely lodged in his agent's hands. The tavern bill amounted to near 70/., and he gave a draft for the money, of which the following is a copy : " 65/. " London, Aug. 31, 18?.1. ",Seven days after sight pay to Mr. James Green or order the sum of 65/. for value received. " WM. CRADOCX." "To J. Cradock, Esq., Loughborough, Leicestershire. Payable at Messrs.

Mr. M'Gregor, the other opposing erailitor, complained that the insolvent obtained a watch, gold chain, weals, and other sir, titles, value 241., from him under the representation that he was an officer in the 43d Regiment. which corps he said he was going to join in Ireland. Witness first knew him through as introduction by Lieutenant Tuckett. He applied to Cox and Greenwood, and found that the insolvent's representations were not true. The insolvent, in reply to this charge, said, that instead of his having solicited the credit, the opposing 'creditor rather pressed the goods upon him. Mr. HEATH addressed the Court for the insolvent. The Learned Gentleman said, that it would he well if an Act of Par liament could be passed to prevent young men from being extra vagant. With respect to the claim of I%lr. Green, that gentleman 41;d not appear to have acted .vith caution, for he ought not to hate suffered it to accumulate to its present amount. • The Cnizy ColtmissioNsa said, that if the insolvent had sworn truly, he did not know that his father had reduced his in come at the time he contracted the debt with Mr. Green, nor was he aware that he should be duped by his agent.
