PRESENTATION OF TUE SHERIFFS OF LONDON AND MIDDLESEX. The LORD MAYOR, accompanied by the Re corder, and other . civic officers„ yesterday , attended with the ' usual state in the Court of ExelfeqUer, 'for the purpose of pre senting to the Cursitor Baron the two new Sheriffs of the City of London and the County of Middlesex, M. P. Lucas and W. Thompson, Esquires. At 20 minutes past two o'clock the venerable Baron Maseres took his seat inthe Court, and shortly afterwards the Lord Mayor and the Recqrder appeared at the bar, leading in by the hand the two new Sheriff's. After they had . made their obeisance to the Court, the Recorder addressed the Cursitor Baron in nearly the following words :—" I have at present to inform your Lordship, that the. Livery of London, in the exercise of the right which has long been vested in their Con: poration, to elect two Sheriffs for the City of London and the County of Middlesex, 'have proceeded after their usual forma ' to an election to fill up that high and distinguished office. That right I need scarcely inform your Lordship has been vested in the corporation of the city of London for niore than 600 years ; it was originallygiven to it by charter, and has, since been for nially recognized by the Legislature on several distinct occa sions. The voice of the citizens of London has this . year fallen , on M.P. Lucas, citizen and vintner, and on W. Thompson, citizen and ironmonger, both of whom I have now the honour to present to your Lordship. Of the first of these gentlemen I have to report, that he was born in the City of London, and in that very ward which lie now has the honour , of representing in. the Court of Aldermen. His life has all along been spent in the midst of his fellow-citizens ; his irate , grity, his pursuits, his general habits, and still more his ge neral acquaintance with, every detail of the commerce of the city of London, are therefore well known to them, and have caused him for years to be returned as one of their repre-' sentatives to the great council of the city—the Court of Com mon Council. The excellent mariner in which he discharged the duties of that situation has been universally recognized, and he has since received his reward for it, in being elected by his fellow citizens to represent them also in the Court of 'Aldermen. Of the other Gentleman, Mr. Alderman Thomp son, I have to report to your Lordship, that he is a gentleman of liberal education, great acquirements, and amiable man ners—that he is intimately acquainted with the different manu factures of this country, and that he has contributed to im prove one of them most materially in an arm which, when wielded by our intrepid countrymenovill enable thew to resist the attack of every enemy, and to revenge every attempt ' that may be made to insult or injure any part of these Unit ed Kingdoms. Both these gentlemen are distinguished for an intenitf that can never be shaken under any circumstances._ Their follow citizens are well acquainted with the reverence, af fection, and loyalty which they feel, towards their august Sove reign, and also • with the strong regard (a regard never to be weakened) which they bear towards our excellent constitution—a constitution which has been the admiration of the wise and good of all times and of all countries, and which, more than any other with which the world is acquainted, secures the' benefit of the throne and the advantages of the subject. Their fellow citizens are abo quite certain that the affection which they bear to the city\ of London will make them anxious and vigilant guardians of the peculiar privileges which it enjoys in contradistinction to the other cities of the land. Those privileges are large and ample, and are well known to the gentlemen in question.— Their fellow-citizens are likewise convinced that the peace and security of the metropolis, as well as of the opulent county with which it is immediately connected, will be preserved in their hands, as far as human council and honest and intrepid conduct can preserve them. Essential it is to the tranquillity of the rest of the kingdom that they should be preserved ; and these gentlemen I am sure are ready to make every sacrifice in their power to attain so desirable an object. Their fellow-citizens are further induced, by the large fortunes which these gentle men have acquired by fair and honest and honourable means, to hope, that in all matters relating to the splendour and dig nity of the city, they will give with that liberal and bounteous hand, which will render their office pleasing to the people, and not unworthy of the city with which they are connected as Magistrates. Knowing that these their hopes and expecta tions will hereafter be fulfilled, the citizens of London re pose in them their highest confidence, and haVe no doubt at the close of their office, they shall have to bestow upon them their warmest applause and approbation, for the man ner in which the various duties of their office shall have been discharged. I am now to apprise your Lordship, that the late Sheriffs, John Garratt, Alderman and stationer, and William Venables, Alderman and goldsmith, attend personally this day before your Lordship, to render an account of the different fees and issues of their office. I had the honour to say to your Lord ship, when I last year presented them 'to your notice, that their fellow citizens expected at their hands every thing that could be conducive to the welfare of the city, and advantageous to their own character and honour. That prediction, in the course of human events, by possibility might not have been fulfilled ; but the citizens of London authorize me to declare on their behalf to your Lordship, and I now gladly do so, that the highest expectations which they formed:of those gentlemen have been completely fulfilled. 'They have shown the greatest zeal, attention, and liberality in their high office; they have display ed the utmost hunianity that was consistent with the equal exe cution Of its painful duties ; and they have by their general con duct and assiduity entitled themselves to be further serviceable to their fellow-citizens in every situation of honour that the city can bestow. What I have so feebly said in their praise on the present occasion, cannot compensate them so .fully for their exertions as that approbation, so dear to all public men, which the day before yesterday was bestowed upon them by a vote of their fellow-citizens in Common Hall assembled." The Recorder then concluded by reading the vote of thanks conferred upon the Sheriff at the last Common Hall. After the Cursitor Baron had made his bow to the new She riff's, the Recorder proceeded to read a paper, by which they jointly authorized William Foxdale to receive, as their attorney, all writs, mandates, &c. of that Court to them directed. The Cursitor Baron ordered this paper to be recorded. The late Sheriffs then rendered upon oath their accounts in person. These were also recorded. They then, by permission of the Court, put in their places Messrs. Collingndge and Sud low, who had acted as their aitornies. The new Sheriffs were then sworn in. Mr. Alderman Garratt then proceeded to chop the sticks, to present the horse-shoes, and to Imad in the bag of hob-nails, required by the City Charter to be presented on this occasion. The Usher of the Court counted them, and they were all declared by the crier to be good numWr- The Lord Mayor and the different members of the Corpora tion then left the Court ; and, ascending their barge, returned as they had come, by water to the city. SHERIFFS' DINNER. Yesterday the Sheriffs Elect, Aldermen Luria;and Thomp son, gave their inauguration Dinner at Vintners' Hall, and the profuse arrangements for the occasion did honour to the long established hospitality of the Corporation. The guests, about 200 in number, consisted of all the civic official characters, and the principal citizens, without any politi cal distinction. At six o'clock the company sat down to a sumptuous dinner, consisting of every delicacy of the season. After the cloth was removed, Non nobis, donzine, was sung by Messrs. Taylor, Leete, and other professional gentlemen, with suitable effect. When the usual toasts of the Royal Family were drunk, • Mr. Alderman HEYGATE proposed the health of the Lord Mayor, which he prefaced with a tribute of respect to the con ciliatory manner in which his Lordship had performed his offi cial duties. The LORD MAYOR, in returning thanks, declared the grati tude he felt for this mark of the respect and approbation of his fellow-citizens, and roposed in his turn the health of the Lord Mayor elect, r. Alderman Heygate. Mr. Alderman HEYGATE, in acknowledging this honour, assured his fellow-citizens of the satisfaction which he felt at the immediate prospect of entering into so high and honourable an office in a season of general tranquillity; and he pledged himself to maintain the arduous duties of his new station in such a manner as to evince the desire he felt to uphold the cha racter and splendour of the British metropolis. The healths of the Aldermen and Corporation of the city of London were next drank ; and. Sir W. CuitT is returned thanks. He declared that the city would ever find their character and privileges maintained while they preserved, as they did at present, a body of magistrates who manifested and sustained their loyalty, honour, and credit. Upon the health of the new Sheriff's being drank, Mr. Sheriff LUCAS expressed the gratification he derived from this tribute on the part of so highly respectable a body of his fellow citizens, and he pledged himself to them to maintain their confidence by a firm, assiduous, and impartial administration of the arduous duties of his office. Mr. Sheritr THOMPSGS declared his entire concurrence in the pledge just given by his worthy colleague, and assured his fellow-citizens of his warmest desire to discharge his duty with entire impartiality. He knew nothing more fatal to the due nischarge of ministerial duties than any admixture of politics in their circumstances. He lamented the crowded state of the gaols, and assured his fellow-citizens that neither he nor his colleague would spare any means within their power to temper the severity of their duties with all possible humanity and commiseration Tor such objects as should appear entitled to their sympathy. He declared the satisfaction which he felt at finding that no objection had 'been started to his undertaking civic office while lie was at the same time discharging the duties of a Member of Parliament, and he'hoped he should show his fellOw citizens that a due attention to the rights of his constitu ents was not inconsistent with a co-equal discharge of the im portabt municipal duties of the shrievalty. He concluded by assuring the company of the deep interest which he felt in the commercial prosperity of the city of London, and of his stead fast intention to promote it by every means which were at his disposal.—(Applause.) Tl.e healths of the Sheriffs for the past year were next drank, and Mr. Alderman GAIIRATT in returning thanks expressed the gratification which he felt at surrendering the duties of the shrievalty into such excellent hands as those of the Sheriffs elect. Mr. Alderman VENABLES repeated his meed of thanks for the compliment paid to him, and observed, in allusion to the crowded state of the Kaols, that if he had not expressed so strong and decided an opinion as his worthy colleague had usually done upon the severity of the criminal code, it was not.that he was less sensible of the necessity of its calm and deliberate re vision, but that he felt the subject too serious and comprehen sive to touch upon hastily, and pronounce decisively upon its bearings. The healths of the Recorder and other civic personages were afterwards drank, and the Company sat until a late hour in the full enjoyment of the hospitality a the Sheriffs elect. VOLICE INTELLIGENCE. HAT T 0 ARDE N.—Yesterday Henry Day, a working sil versmith, residing at No. 3, Wilderness-row, Clerkenwell, was brought up for final examination, charged with feloniously forg ing and counterfeiting the Hall Stamp of the Goldsmiths' Com pany, on several articles of silver plate sold by him. Mr. Sykes attended on behalf of the Crown, and Mr. Hum phries for the prisoner. James George Stevens, a pawnbroker, living at 83, Shore ditch, about the beginning of December, 1821, gave pri soner an order for two pair of butter ladles, which he de livered on the Bth or 9th of the same month, together with a fish slice ; he delivered his bill for the amount at the time, which was paid him ; he charged 18s. 2d. stamp duty on the two butter ladles, and ss. Bd. stamp duty on the fish slice. The pair of butter ladles now produced, and the fish slice, were those bought at the time from the prisoner. Mr. George Miles, Inspector of Stamps at Goldsmiths' Hall, deposed, that the pair of butter ladles and fish slice then produced, he received from the last witness, and that on exam ining them, he found that all the marks and stamps on them were forged and counterfeit. The prisoner, by the advice of his solicitor, declined making any defence, and was fully committed for trial. LAMBETII.STREET. Yesterday John Bailey, John Bridges, Win. Burley, and Thomas York, were brought up in custody of Gibbs, Ellis, and Hewit, of the Bow-street pa. trol, charged with the perpetration of a most audacious robbery. Gibbs, who is conductor of a party of patrole stationed at the east end of the Metropolis, stated that the neighbourhood of Stratford, Bow, and Mile-end, was for sometime back infested by a formidable gang of robbers, who carried oh their avocations in that district, having robbed several dwelling-houses, &c. He and his party, while going their rounds 'on Saturday night, happened to fall in with the prisoners at the Angel, at Strat ford, all of whom they recognised as Old Bailey acquaintances, and conveyed them to the watchhouse. Benjamin Arches stated that he was a private 17?tchman in the employ of Mr. Thompson, in Mile-end-road, and that at an early hour a few mornings ago, while on duty in his master's garden, he was suddenly assailed by some ruffians, who, after beating him most unmercifully, robbed him of his gun with which they escaped, leaving behind them a stick with a dirk in it, which he now produced. The witness, on giving this testimony, was desired to take a minute survey of the prisoners, and see if he could identify any of them as being concerned in the robbery. He did so, and instantly pointed out Bailey, who he said lie was certain was one of the persons engaged in robbing and beating him, but he could not speak to any of the others. The prisoner Bailey was ordered to be remanded for further , examination on this charge, and the other three were committed for one month each to the House of Correction at Barking, they having been apprehended in the county of Essex. On Wednesday a• Scots pint of strawberries was sold at Boyd's fruit shop,. Prince's-street. The fruit ap. peared to be large, and of fine quality, and were grown by Mr. illathPsons lkidgend, Dalkeith.—{ Edinburgh Courant.) CITY, MONDAY EVENING. There is again a short supply of every descrip tion of grain in Mark-lane for sale. Since this day week the arrivals have only been 7,651 quarters of Wheat, 3,676 quar ters of Barley, 6,181 quarters of Malt, 7,093 quarters of Oats, and only 4,377'sacks of Flotfr. As it is now ascertained tha t the Wheat crop is above an average growth, this article is ex ceeding dull sale, and the finest Essex runs of new are at least 2s. a quarter lower. In inferior qualities, and the growth of 1821, scarcely a sale can be effected. ome fair old white Wheat was sold at 375., and good Irish red, 581 b. is offered at 325. a quarter. The new Barley which has as yet appeared on sale is flinty, and not well adapted to the purposes of the malt ster. Any really fine samples are worth 31s. a quarter ; but grinding qualities can scarcely be sold, on account of the ex tremely low value of Wheat. The short supply of Oats causes an advance In their value of nearly ls. a quarter; but full mar kets will soon bring this article also on a level with Wheat. The average prices to the 21st September, by which importa tion is regulated, are for Wheat 40s. 6d., Barley 255. 11d., O a t s 17s. 7d., Beans 235. 6d., s and Peas 255. Bd. The low price of. Wheat has caused a decline in Flour this day of ss. a sack, the price being 305., 355.,. to 40s. a sack. This being the first day for selling Bread by the pound weight, and the bakers gene rally having charged 2d. a pound, it is proper to give the public a calculation of the real expence to the baker. A batch of household bread consists of one-fourth of the finest flour, and three-fourths of North Country or second qualities. The pre sent value of Flour to the baker is not more on this average than 355. a sack, to which must be added for salt, labour, and profit, 13s. 4d. a sack, and which is held by the bakers them selves, as being fully suflicicnt. The expence of a sa c k o f Fl our baked into household bread,with a fair profit to the baker included, is therefore 48s. 4d. One sack of Flour of this description will produce 363 2-161 b. weight of bread, and therefore led. per lb. is the full value in the present state of the market for the best description of household bread, being as near 7d. for the quar tern loaf as possible. The Act will do much good when the public becomes acquainted with it, but 2d. a pound is dearer than the quartern loaf was last week. A quartern loaf weighs 41b. 51 oz., and a sack of household flour produces 84 of them. In Liverpool last week 1100 casks of Plantation Sugar sold freely at an advance of from Is. to Is. 6d. a cwt. No East India Sugar was ofFeied for sale, and the principal holders were withdrawing their stocks from the market, in anticipation of a farther advance. In foreign Sugar very little was done. There is little of this description left on hand, and that is en- . tirely Brazil. Molasses were more inquired after, and the re finers took off nearly 500 pun. Good Demerara at 28 ; Gre nada at 29 ; and St. Vincent at 30. Jamaica Rum of fine flavour was saleable, at 2s. 3d. to 2s. 4d. a gallon for 16 0. P. ; but for other description there was no demand. Clean and co loury Plantation Coffee sold readily, and high prices were ob tained for 100 casks of low to good middling Jamaica by public sale ; 460 bags of Sumatra Coffee were sold at the same time ; very ordinary and country damaged brought 80s. to 81. • mixed ordinary 88s. 6d. to 935. ; and fair ordinary went as hi g h as 102 s. 3d. per cwt. The public sales of hides went off with considerable spirit, and higher prices were realised. The sale consisted of 12,000 dry ox and cow at 104 d, to ; 1,500 salted at 64d. per lb. ; 20,000 horse.hides at ss. 7d. to ss. 11d. each ; and 2,000 dry East India cow hides at 12d. to 12d. perlb. The export demand for cotton took off 1,200 bags of Ameri can and Brazil, and 800 bags were purchased by speculators. The sale amounted to 7,406 bags. The prices were, for Sea Island ordinary to middling lid. to 110. • and fair to good 12, , ,d. to 15d. Upland 6d. to 6ild. for ordinary, and 71d. to 80. for good • Tenessee 64d. to 6V. ; New Orleans ordinary 60., fair 10;,d., and fine 12d. ; Pernambuco middling 90., fair 10.3 d., fine lOid. ; Bahia middling 81d., and good 91d. ; and Bengal at (id. per lb. Hemp and Tallow were both very dull sale, and prices were lower. A good deal of business was again done alit day in the British Funds. Consols for the Account opened at 811 g,. and did not undergo any alteration during the day. There ig ter , thinly at present an inclination for an advance occasioned by dull trade, Agricultural distress, and the abundance of money which will come into the market after the payment of the divi dends. The Holy Alliance, however, at present assists the Bears, for strong doubts are entertained of the conduct of these 1 Legitimates when they are collected at Verona. It is no doubt difficult even to form an opinion of their intentions. Nobody does them the credit to suppose that the result of their delibera tions will be of any advantage to the human race, and there are many who augur much mischief from their meeting. Some audacious attack on the liberties of neighbouring nations, and some effort to restrain the progress of knowledge, and to sit limits to the faculties of the human mind are, in the opinion of many welbinformed persons, likely to attract the principal no tice of this collection of presumptuous political wisdom. In Foreign Securities a great deal of business has been done, and all the accounts have been settled without airy declared de faulter. In the Old Spanish Bonds there has been a farther advance, and in the New the interest of money at one time for a fortnight was a per cent., for whilst the cash price was 041 f, sales were made for time at 63a The Old Bonds have ad vanced to nearly 73. Information was this day received that the long-talked-of Portuguese loanhas been at length contracted for. It amounts to only 200,0001., and the Lisbon Bank has advanced the whole, • on the security of the duties on certain articles of importation and exportation. Spain and Portugal are on the best terms of friendship, and their prosperity is of the deepest interest to the British Traders. The Neapolitan Loan is one-quarter per cent. dearer, and not many of these Bonds are now in the market. The new Itus sian Bonds are, also a shade dearer, and considerable operations have taken place in them. This day the instalment was paid on the Chilian Loan, and the proprietors got the half-year's Dividend of 3 per Cent. paid to them., It was a Bear account, and the prompt payment of the whole of the Loan, without one defaulter, shews that it is in the hands of capitalists. It will open to-morrow at a price less the dividend, to make it of the same value as this day.

FINE ARTS. NORTHUMBERLAND INSTITUTION FOR THE PROMOTION OF. THE FINE ARTS, BRUNSWICK PLACE, NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE. The first Annual Exhibition of Pictures sent to this Institution opened last Monday, and a more splendid and valuable assemblage of the works of art were perhaps never before . brought together at such a distance from the Metropolis, in so short a time. The catalogue contains no less than 162 Pictures, and many of these by the first Artists of the day. Among others, • the names of Howard, R.A., Haydon, • Reinagle, R.A., Mare tin, Ward, R.A., Landseer, and the celebrated wood-engraver, Bewick, stand conspicuous. We shall not attempt a deserip tion of every picture comprised in the exhibition, but confine ourselves to a few observations on those which most particularly attracted our attention. • • No. 2. Spanish Pointers, by E. LANDSEER.— , This picture possesses considerable merit ; the dogs are painted with great animation, and the general effect is excellent. 3. Stirling Castle, by T. M. RICHARDSON.—The bold coin: mending situation of Stirling Castle is peculiarly adapted to give effect to a picture, and the Artist has, in the view before us, made the most of it. The setting sun is represented . as just re tiring behind the western hills, which are gilded by his parting rays. The golden tinge also sheds its influence upon the Castle and on the valley beneath, and the effect is heightened by a bold masterly foreground. This picture does infinite credit to the Artist, though, if we may be allowed to express an opinion, the rays of the setting sun are rather too fiery. 4. Girl fetching Water, by 11. HoWARD, R.A.—This is a beautiful and interesting picture : such as might be expected from such an Artist. _ 6. Cupid Cruising t by HAY DON.—This is an exquisite sketch, and the colouring is most brilliant, denoting an Artist of the first class. 10. Landscape and Figures, by H. HOWARD, R.A.—A ca= pital picture, worthy of the painter.. 19. A Rural Scene, by P. REINAGLE, R.A.—A pedlar ofe fering his goods for sale to a servant. Effect of noon, an excel: lent picture. 20. Hop Pickers, by Miss LAWDSEER.—This is an ex=" tremely rich composition, and reflects great credit on the taste Of the female Artist. 26. Water Mill at Anibleside, by T. M. Ricnannsorr..= The scenery here represented is remarkably picturesque, and the colouring and general effect excellent.• . 28. View in the Royal Park, Richmond, Surrey, by R. R. REINAGLE, A.R.A.—This is a very pleasing picture, represa senting men preparing to cart felled timber at noon on a sum mer's day. The colouring is warm and transparent. 30. Hercules liberating Prometheus, by C. Laietisieiß.—• This is an astonishing effort of a very yowls irran. The-1111W' cular powers of Hercules are finely represented, as well as the figure of Prometheus chained to the rock, and under the talons of the winged tyrant. The effect of this picture, on first enter- , ing the room, is very striking. 31. Macbeth, by J.MARTien—This picture represents Mac= beth on his return from the Highlands after the defeat of Mac. , donwald, when he meets the Weird Sisters on the blasted heath; before sun-set. In the centre of the picture, standing OR an eminence, are seen Macbeth and BA:quo, and on the left side the Weird Sisters in the act of taking flight. Macbeth is sup-,posed to be uttering these words which Sliakspeare has putinto his mouth—" Stay, you imperfect speakers, tell me more and Banquo-s" Whiner are, they vauislied ?" On the right hand side is seen the Scottish army in great force,. its long._ line winding around the hills for a considerable distance. Tine. composition, like others of Martin's, evinces a grandeur of con, ception, and a powerfal.genius in the artist seldom equalled. The bold mountainOusieenery, tinged with the light of declin-' ing day, is indescribably 'grand and the wild supernatural effect thrown over that part of the picture where the- witches are obe served, harmonizes with theitemystical character. The picture is not, however, faultless. • There is a want of distinctness in some parts of it, particularly at the summits of some of the mountains, which are so mixed up with the sky, as to occasion a confusion not at all pleasing to the beholder. 34. Donne Castle, on the Teith, Perthshire, by 'ii SIMSON, of Edinburgh.—This picture we understand to be painted by a very young Artist, and we must say that it it highly creditable to his talents. The coniposition is extremely rich. The castle, in ruins, stands on a little eminence, beneath which is seen the winding of the river Teith through a beauti ful and well wooded country. Stirling Cestlerears its lofty head in the distance, and a rich and varied foreground completes the general effect, which is soft and harmonious hi the extreme.— it is a charming picture, and we doubt. not Nr. Sinison will one day or other rank among the foremost of his profession. 41. Group giFigures in a Steam Packet on the Tyne, by H.. P. PARKER.—ThIS is a lively and entertaining compositien, well conceived, and equally well executed. 51. Portrait rf a farourile Hackney, by J. WARD, R. A.— This, as also No. 68, a portrait of haphazard, by the same master, possesses great merit. The colouring in both is re markably fine, and the proportions and symmetry of the erne coals prove a thorough knowledge of anatomy in tne artist. 52. View of the Skirts of a Village by P. REfNAGLE;. R.A.—A Uipscy family resting at noonday under the shade of a stately tree, appear in the foreground, the husband at some little distance from his wife and . family, casting an ansiitaie look towards the village, which is beautifully introduced..-= The landscape is veryhne ; and the arrangement and tone of the whole picture are worthy of the artist. 58. Day after the Fair, by L. CLENNEI.L.—This is one - of the last of the pictures painted by this unfortunate artist. It is not entirely finished, but it exhibits the hand of a master of no ordinary talent. While it excites admiration it also occasions regret, fur no one can look upon it who is aware of the melan choly state of the artist without heaving a sigh for the un happy individual, who, but for an awful dispensation of Provi dence, might have vied for pre-eminence with the first artists of his day. 60. Rustic Child, by 11. HOWARD, R.A.—This is an ex quisite performance, the expression is particularly striking, and the beautiful tone of colouring stamps it as a picture of the first class. 72. Sunset, by H. LANDSEER.—A rich and glo.wing distant landscape seen through between a group of trees iraront e •A shepherd and his flock in the foreground. Tile composition' is good. 80. Boy with Mats and Brooms, by G. SIMSON, brother of W. Si MSON.—A very promising perrOrmance, the expression and colouring well conceived, and the general tone sort and ,striking. 83. Landscape, Storm coining on, by H. LANTisszet.l--This is a clever composition and welt painted. 85. The Glen of the Trosachs, by 'l'. M. RicilAnnsoer.— A very chaste representation of wild mountainous scenery, the tops of the lofty hills lost in the clouds which hang upon theme. The picture ix well painted, and the effect good. 94. View of Newcasile,froni Gateshead, by J. Deluxe._ This is a pencil drawing, possessing more than ordinary merit.. 99. View opluckharen rith of Forth, by J. F. WiLI.IAMS.. —The effect of this marine view is bold and striking,, though the colouring is somewhat coarse. 104. " Nobody coming to marry me," by T. Uwieee..--The inside of a cottage, a disconsolate maiden seated on a. chair.-- Her work laid aside ; a book, cards, 6ec. thrown oe the floor, and a cat, the emblem of an old maid, Sitting near her, well des. tribes the unhappy state of the forlorn damsel. The colouring is very good, and the general effect excellent. 125. 'Tien , of the pia qf Seaton Delaval that was lately des.. troycd by/ire, by J. Donsox.—This architectural drawing ex hibits a correct representation of the north front of the splendid mansion which was for so many years the chief residence of the Delaval family. The drawing and colouring ‘ do credit to the artist. Numbers 146, 147, 148, and 1.53 are designs. by the ci.le brated Bewick and his sun, some of them drawn on, blocks of wood. There are several pictures possessing great merit besides those. which we have more particularly noticed. The leandseerfarnily Lave contributed many clever pictures ; and we must not omit the names of Unton, 'Varley, Copley Fielding, Gastineau, Ste phanoff, A. Morton, Captain Festing, Royal Artillery, Ram-. sey, Dixon, and Drury, all of whom have contributed seines. thing excellent towards the exhibition.
