BRITISH INSTITUTION Of all the arts practised by' man there is not one which yields a purer delight than that of painting. It would far exceed the limits of a Journal to enter into detailed comparisons be.- tween it and other arts .: we inust content 'Our selves with observing, that when the great end of the art is attained, that it conveys instruction with.delight, and that while the 'eye is pleased with correct delineation and harmonious colour ing, the -mind is carried captive by the' truth of expression, and instructed by the moral conveyed in the representation of a well selected subject. The learned critic of the art of . Painting may amuse his audience or his readers by emitting with volubility a torrent of cant phraseology, to which few, or indefinite, ideas are attached4,and thus gain the approbation of the ignorant and the weak; hutlhose whose superior mental qualifi cations enable them to enter into the delineated expression ; of various feelings—to quickly per ceive correct representations of . nature, whether chosen from amid her silent walks, or caught frOm the transients effects of elemental war,—or to soar into the regions of fancy under the guid ance of the imagination that has embodied its own ideal conceptions, or depicted those which have been desCribed by . others, have not need of a knowledge -of systems and rules by which to deprive themselves •of pleasure, and chain down their Mind so as to prevent it from follow ' ing:the- train of ideas which must have occupied the artist while composing his. work. - .Under this conviction we shall leave others to chatter about gusto and pyramidal groups, grand con torno, and mechophanic manner, and speak in general and intelligible terms o f th e prominent' specimens of art now exhibiting in-the British Institution, interspersing our remarks with those observation's which every amateur and con noisseur may • indulge in, - without assuming the higher province of the: learned critic.' Before we mention any of the. works, justice corn pels us to say, that the pictures are not ar ranged with the judgment usually displayed by the Committee. There are many pictures which from the size of the figures, and the style of the . execution,would have admitted of highersituations, • but which have been placed too low to be seen with advantage, and have thus prevented many highly wrought productions. from being brought into notice. In confirmation of our statement, we will give one glaring example: a Concert Charn 7 petre, containing, gigantic portraits of Miss Stephens, Mrs. Salmon, (we believe). •Madame Camporese, and Ambrogetti, measuring almost. ten feet by sevens is so placed that the heads are rather below the level: of the eye, while Mr. Frazer's exquisitelY7Tniilied performance, No. 314, is hung in the dark so high, that it. will be found with difficulty, and then be but indistinctly seen. We hope that this defect has arisen from accident, and will never again call for our just animadversion. No. 94.—The Larder Invaded.—E. LaNnsErit. When we consider the age of Mr. Edwin Landseer, and con template this surpyizing picture, we are lost in astonishment at so young a man's producing a work which in drawing, co louring, execution, and truth to nature, Classes him with Sny- ders and Hondoekoot e r. The skill of the Artist has tri umphed over the subject, and admiration is extorted before the mind hes hen permitted to examine the - structure of the work Which has corned it .captive. A profusion of game and other stores of the Larder have been invaded by a Cat, who is dis turbed by the arrival of a dog . to share in the plunder ; at th e discovery of each other, the object of both becomes second ar y. Puss in terror, threatening defence, is, with gleaning eyes, ears closely pressed down, an d o p en mou th, hissing at her enemy and almost seems to breathe. The dog, all eagerness and spirit, is curling his lip and preparing to attack Grimalkin. Between is a finely arranged mass of 'game and fowls of dif ferent kinds, which are painted almoit to deception. It would be impossible, from the nature of the subject, to enter into a detail of its beauties : but, w ith ou t annu lling one syllable of what we have advanced, we will hazard a thought or two on' some points which prevent us from pronouncing the work to be perfect, though we have not temerity enough to undertake to maintain them. The belly of the dog and -some parts of the back ground appear to recpire More finishing ; his right paw does not seem to be quite in 'the place where it would be best in composition, and there may .perhaps be a little deficiency in the breadth of shadow, which supplied, might add to the effect of the picture.- r -N0.122, The Watchful Centinel, is a picture full of truth and. beauty. We regret that the dog w as no t made the principal in some well chosen subject, which would have given wider scope to the talents of Mr. Landseer. We do not think the back ground of this picture agreeable. No. 12.—Landscape from Chatterton's Ballad of Charitie. Colvmui STONE. Few among the pictures in this Department of Art, will bear competition with this efThrt of genius from the pencil of Mrs. Stone. The composition is worthy of the poetry from which the subject has been judiciously selected. The clouds in the grandeur of their forms, in their tempestuous character, and powerful gradation of tones, give a magnificent representation of " The blaclie tempest swolne and gathered up apace." The landscape is composed with high poetic feeling, and executed 'with afirm and certain pencil.. The shepherd hur rying with his flock to the woodland for shelter, is happily in troduced. The monk giving his cloak to the forlorn and naked beggar, crouched at the root of a tree scathed and blasted like himself, is a passage nQt only fine in execution but replete with the highest sentiment. The Abbot, who had refused his wretched fellow-creature aid, riding amain to his convent in the distance completes the story, and makes us say with Chatterton— " Give the rich man will, or give the good man power," In this landscape we have not only a magnificent representa tion of when -" To the gathering storm amid the deep, The troubled ocean swells ift billowy sweep, Loud rings the crash upon the mountain brow, Hoarse murmurs mingle from the shores below, And ceaseless rustling of each woodland vale Sighs to the horrors of the rushing gale. SOUTHEItriI GEORGICS. But also.onrminds instructed by the moral of the tale. Where this in a landscape is combined, even envy would not stop to seek fig imperfections from which no human work is free. Devotion.--Mrs. CARPE I; TER. The general and deserved approbation which this picture re ceived from Artists and Amateurs during the whole of ' Monday, was a certain proof that it is not only very finely executed, but full of great and attractive beauty. It is simply a Devotee bold ing a crucifix in his , hand, with his eyes cast upwards. True talent does not require complicated groups to evince its . power. His . pOsition is proved by the picture now under examin at i o n. It is conceived in the chastest taste, coloured with great truth, and drawn - in a style' which would reflect credit on many of those who have reaped every advantage from academical studies. The expression is of true and heavenly:devotion, and leads us to expect still greater efforts from the female hand who has dared so much, mid succeeded so well., We thought that its beauty would have : been increased by a little more attention to glazing. Before we left the gallery the picture had attracted the 'attention, and been immediately purchaser) by that distin guished amateur, J. 'Wilton Esq., of Devonshire-pl ace . (T 4 be continued.) IVEDNESDA,Y, JANUARY 30, 1822 ACCESSION of GEORGE the FO URTII. The Accession of his present MAJESTY to the Throne of these Realms was yesterday comme morated by a grand dinner at the City. of Lon don Tavern.. The large room, which was splen didly decorated for the occasion, was filled at an early hour: at half-past six o'clock, Sir W. CURTIS, the President of the day, entered. The venerable Baronet was received with loud accla mations by the whole company, and took his seat at the head of the cross table, supported by Sir C. FeowErt on his right hand, and by Mr. Alderman BatooLs on his left. The cloth re .moved, Non Nobis Domine was sung by the vocal Gentlemen .in attendance, among whom we: re marked .Messrs. Hawes, Bellamy, Leete, Collyer, Evans, Terrail., Broad.hurst, and Clarke. The word to charge glasses was given, and the eorn- . pan/ rose to drink the KING'S health. Sir W. CURTIS said, before he Proposed the toast with which it was his duty, as President, to open the business of the day, it was necessary for him to. - address a few words to those by whom he had the honour to be. surrounded. He con gratulated himself, and he might justly congra tulate them on meeting so numerous and respect able a body, on an occasion so glorious and so gratifying to every British heart as the accession of his present Majesty to the Throne of his ances tors. Those he addressed would, he was certain, exult with him in the reflection that the nation was bleSsed with a Monarch who inherited all the great qualities of his revered father—who .possessed all the manly virtues that became his exalted stationand who was endued with every qualification that - could tit him to reign over ,a free people. Happy, happy was it for.the country, that it was so favoured by Provi dence ! and, feeling this, all must joyfully unite to celebrate the day which placed. him on '.the Throne. But it had been remarked that it was not formerly the custom so to comme morate the accession of the late He knew not how this might , be, hut living in times likes these, and seeing what they had seen, ail must .admit the propriety of such a proceed ing-now, - whatever might hav e b een th e pract i ce informer times. He had much satisfaction in remarking that the State of the country was.much improved since they had last met.. They had assembled on that day a year ago in that room., That was a memorable epocha. The oldest person living could not remember. the - time when men's minds had been so perverted as they were then. He thanked God it. was not so now.— Men's minds were now working round,. and thus it would ever be in this country with the many. Their hearts were in the right place, and though they might be misled for it season, they would return to a just sense of duty in the end. A great event had occurred _since the period to which he had alluded. And' what was that great event? The King had boldly come before his people to enter into that solemn compact with them which grew out of his Coronation. lie re joiced that his Majesty had acted with such mag nanimity, and also that he had visited the Sister Kingdom, where hiS ancestors had been known only by fame. He (Sir W. C.) had had the honour to witness the reception giVen to his Ma jesty in that fine country, and •the loyal - zeal and enthusiasm which had been displayed there ex..' ceeded every thing which he could have imagined. Taunts had been thrown out against the present celebration. It was - said that it was a political meeting. . lie denied that it was so.• There was no party feeling in it, when - they met to congra tulate themselves and their country on one so able, so great, so illustrious as the present Sovereign being placed on its Throne ; and he therefore doubted not they would all unite with heart and hand to drink their Monarch's health with four times four. The King's health was then drunk with four times four, and welco-ned with loud and long continued acclamations. God save the King was then sung. After which " The Royal Family" was given, followed by " Hail ! Star of Brunswick." The CIIMIIMAN begged to propose the health of a Member of the Royal Family, to whose ceaseless attention to the im provement and welfare of the Army, the nation might ascribe the splendid success with which its exertions had been crowned. lie then gave " the Duke of York and the Army."—Song, Britons strike home. The CHAIRMAN next reminded the company of the imp.ort ant services of the British Navy, and gave " the Duke of Cla rence and the Navy of Great Britain."—Rule Britannia was here sung. . . The CHAIRMAN said he had already called the attention of the Meeting to those two great branches of national strength which had fought our battles. But without a head to direct their operations he was afraid all their prowess would have been found inefficient to protect us. It was well for the country that the King possessed the power of appointing those who wete to conduct the affairs of State. This prerogative he was sure he ought always to exercise, and experience taught that it would al.; ways be well exercised by the present King. The reigning Sove reign in his youth had become intimate with certain great men who were among the leading characters in the State. For those parties he had great respect, but he admired the conduct of the King, who, when called upon to take the Government into his own hands, forgot the partialitiei of private friendship to pro mote the true interests of the. country. The course he had taken on that occasion had satisfied the country, and not only) this country. but it had satisfied all Europe. This nation had reason to thank God and the. King, that his Majesty had had the magnanimity. to act such a - part ; as to the Councils of those who had been so preferred the nation owed its present glory and the commanding situation in which it was placed at this day.—. With these.feelings, he thought they would feel it to be their duty to drink the'health of the Earl of ,Liverpool. • The toast was drunk with three times three. The Cii.uP.MAN next draw the attention Of the meeting to; the greatest General i z the world. .Ile reminded them' of the glories of Waterloo and their brilliant consequences, and gave the health of the Duke of Wellington. This toast having been drunk with the osol honours, The CHAIRMAN, after a panegyric on the merits of a Noble Marquess, who had brought to civilization an empire much larger than this, and whose administration would, he hoped and confidently trusted, soon tranquilize the sister kingdom, gave the health of the Marquess of Wellesley. The toast was drunk with three times three. It was follow ed by—" The delightful Women of the United Kingdom ;";--- " The English Constitution ;"—and " The Lord Mayor and Corporation of the City of London." • The last toast called up Sir C. FLOWER, who returned thanks in the name of the Corporation of London. - The health of Sir W. CURTIS was drunk with loud aecla , mations. The CHAntitux was much obliged by the manner in which his health !fad been drunk. For such a compliment be was. unprepared at that mommt, and he was at all times unpre pared to speak of himself. His conduct however was before them and before his country, and he hoped it would be found that he had done his duty. lie proceeded to contend that the City of London had been libelled when it was described , as being other'tha.n . loyal. The great body of the citizens were loyal to the back bone. Among so large a community. different opinions would exist. To this he had no objection, so those opposed to him fairly advocated the principles they professed, that the truth might come out. He would call upon those to compare the situation of this country with that.of other countries, and then they would see there was much cause for congratulation, but no just grounds for complaint. He was satisfied that those who were at present disaffected were few, and were contempti ble.—(Applause.) ." The Corporation of Dublin," and " The Members for the City of London," were the next toasts. - Mr. Alderman BRIDGES congratulated the Meeting on the occasion of their meeting to celebrate the accession of their excellent King, who had never performed any act which did not do honour to his head and heart. lie exulted in the gene ral state of the country, and had no doubt that the distress at present complained of among the agricultural classes would soon be removed. -Mr. T. WILSON returned thanks. He congratulated the meeting and the country on seeing so large a body of Gentle men assembled on the present occasion. To witness this after the 'revilingsthey had sustained, proved to him that the feel ings which animated them before, would not fail to hold them together now and hereafter. He did not concur with his Hon. Colleague in thinking that.. the agricultural distress could be soon or easily removed ; but when the question was brought into discussion it would receive his best attention, and however deficient in ability, he would at .all events give his vote as an honest man. The health of the Members of Parliament who were present was drunk with three times three. The health of Mr. John Hall and the-. Stewards was then given (after a warm eulogiuw) with the usual honours. -111 r. 'HALL returned thanks in the name of the Stewards, to whom be contended the praises bestowed on him were mainly due, as he could have accomplished nothing had they not unit ed to carry his humble suggestions into effect. Ile commented. on the sneers thrown out against the Meeting last year by those who had• called them " Hole and Corner Men," and retorted the sarcasm on those..front whom it catne. There were persons Who professed equal loyalty with those he then addressed, who preferred spewing it in a different way—who preferred strewing it by offering resistance to -the Constituted Authori ties of the land. There were those who thought it• right to show their loyalty as some had lately done at a meeting in - Norfolk ; but such loyalty he hoped would never chew itself where he then was. Of the sixty Stewards who officiated this year, forty-six had volunteered their services, and but fourteen were the same as those of last year. Whatever had been said of the•sentiments which animated the people of London, persons were never called for in the cause of loyalty, but a greater nuin-' ber came forward than was wanting. He again thanked them for the honour conferred on himself and his brother Stew,irds, and expressed his resolution to persevere in the course he had taken, and which had gained their approbation. 'Several loyal and appropriate toasts succeeded, and the Hon. Baronet did' not leave the convivial board till after eleven o'clock. GOLDSMITHS' COMPANY. - - The Anniversary of his MAJESTY'S Accession to the Throne was yesterday -celebrated. .by a dinner of this very ancient and loyal .company. The members of the Livery were present in more than usual attendance, and the principal table was filled by the Court and visitors. The Hall was decorated in a most appropriate and characte ristic style, and the banners of the Company waved above the tables with all imaginable grandeur. The plate, of a character at once splendid and massive, was placed in a favourable light, and its excellence was displayed to universal admiration. • Shortly afrer_six o'clock, the Chairman (the Prime-v% arderi), : the Lend Chancellor, Lord Stowell, Admiral Stirling, the Chan cellor. .11 - the Exchequer, the Lord Mayor, Sheriff's, &c. m entered the koo, amidstvery general approbation, a nd th e cei np any sat down to dinner. • • • , The first course having been removed, the CriAl ItMAN rose, and said that he begged in hisown name, and the name of the Vice-Warden ' to say, that they were prep a red t o d r i n k the health of all the members and visitors present, and to bid them heartily welcome.—(This was received with universal cheers.) . . • The 'cloth having been removed, " Non Ncbis DOmine" was effectively , sung by .A.lissrs. Cooke,-Clarke, Goulding, J. Taylor, and Master Smith. The Cuant MAN then proposed " The King;' a*toast which he thought it right to preface with one observation, that the only company whiCh could claim the honour of his Majesty's presidency was the Goldsmiths' Company.—(Cheers.) The toast was received with extraordinary enthusiasm. It was drank with four times four. The CHAIRMAN next pfoposed the health of " .The Duke of York and the Army," and this toast was received with ge neral approbation. _ _ _ • In introducing it to the notice of the company, the CHAIR MAN observed, that it was to him, as it must he was convinced be to every NI ember present, a matter of extreme regret that the Illustrious Individual whose health he had the •honour of proposing for the adoption of the company, was comnAled by circumstances, over which it was impossible even for his Royal Ilio;hncss to have contiol, to be absent from the celebmtion of so delightful an Anniversary, His Royal Highness, he could assurethe company felt extreme.sorrow at the interference of any duty which obliged him •to forego the pleasure th a t be would otherwile have derived presiding at such a Meeting— (Cheers.). " The health of his Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence" followed, and it was received with equal enthusiast - it. The CHAIRT.IAN proposed " The health of the Lord Chan cellor;" and the toast was received with loud and universal tie clamations.—His Lordship returned thanks. The healths of Lord Stowell, the Chancellor of the niche.; quer, and the Lord Mayor followed, • 'and the toasts received were acknowledged in brief and. appropriate speeches. Several excellent songs were given In the course of the even ing, and at a late hour the company separated. The same occasion was celebrated yesterday by a highly re spectable and numerous party.at the Elephant and...astle, New ington. The Lion. and Rev..J. ON I. OW presided, ,and many toasts, expressive of the affectionate attachment of the Meeting to the King, were given,• and zikeived with great enthusiasm. PRICE SEVIENREktiI, It ELAN D: [FROM THE CORK ADVERTISER; JAN. 26.] A report has•been current all day, that the Rebels appeared in considerable numbers hear Kanttirk, and that the detachment of militw found it necessary to retire to Buttevant. We do not, howei , er, pledge ourselves for the accu racy of this statement; On Thursday night last, a party of those mis guided people, Who are causing so much.distur4- ance and alarm in the country, proceeded to Mr. Abraham Beale's Manufactory at Monard (a few hundred yards west of the new:Mailow-road, and three miles distant from this City), where they stripped and carried off about two cwt. of lead from the roof of the iron, works. The Lowood Mill, which is immediately contiguous; was at work at the titne, and the noise proceed ing from it enabled them to effect their purpose without discovery. THE OUTRAGES AT BANTRY. [LORD BANTRY'S ACCOUNT.] " BANTRY, JAN. 22.—0 n being informed that the pass of. the Glen was in possession of the Vihitelx/s, and having several informations sworn before me and other Magistrates, againit those person's who conimitte4 the late outrages here, and forille gal assembly, I called on Major Carthew to give me a •party , to aid the civil power; he at ozice,complied, and with fourteen of the 59th Regiment,the Major, Capt. O'Sullivan, Capt. White, my eldest son (Lord Beerhaven), constables, and tenantry, in all, including the Military, 55, On- horseback, proceeded at five yesterday morning. The Major: took a commanding pa.. sition over the Glen, and we proceeded on, and had scarcely gone through it, when we heard shouting and bugle horns sound ' ing, and men were arriving in all directions ; they fired on my party on the road, but I considered it too distant to return their fire ; a man came from where the firing commenced with a pike in his hand, and expected we were of Captain Rock's party--this man is a prisoner. The Whiteboys on our return back kept firing, and Major Carthew received them in the very best manner. I detached Dlr. O'Sullivan, and ten others on foot to his assistance, as the nature of the country would - net permit the cavalry to act. It is with great regret I am obliged to state that one soldier, too far in advance, was killed by spades, sticks, &c Two of the persons who killed hint were instantly shot dead. To Major Carthew I am undek the greatest obligations, not only in this r btit for his kind co-opera tion at all times,and I am convinced that every man did his duty in the presence-of such numbers 'and with so small a detachment. To Mr. O'Sullivan, Mr. White, and the respectable persons who placed-themselves under my directions, I feel the greatest gratitude, every recomm en d at i on o f mine having been imme diately acted upon. We have taken six prisoners, and report says, one Lynch, of Mallyvoomey, was shot dead; another man named Cronin, and one Leary, shot badly ; and numbers wounded. The Nlajor says 12 were killed. All the country was in motion—Clonnacreena, Ballyvoerney, &c. last night, and the dead and-wounded were supposed to be taken off to distant places. • a a a _ . . . " I send you this hasty sketch after being up late, to prevont any unfounded reports. . 46 P.S. I hope some military may be sent, as they have hinted at attacking the town, but I cannot believe it. - .BANTRY, • IMPROVEMENT IN TR A D E.--The spinning trade is uncommonly brisk at present in Arbroath and the country adjoining. The demand_ for work people is greater than has been remembered for a long time past; and not unfrequently it is with considerable - difficulty they can be obtained.-- - - The other week, the. proprietors of a mill,. a few miles from town, after some of ,their frames had. been at a stand for want o f _h an d s , sent to Mon .trnse to procure additional spinners. When, to the great joy of the partners, a sufficient number had at length been found, they were conveyed in post-chaises to the scene of their labours. All was now conceived to be adjusted to . a wish ; but the nett day it appeared that one of the . fair travellers, delighted with the un usual magnificence of the style in which.she had been conveyed to the destined field of her operLi tions, had. begun to long for another trip of similar kind. In het' dreams, post-chaises ap peared waiting for her in every town; and so, 'without ceremony, she took her departure from the mill to. which she had been borne, by a welt mounted postillion, in the full assurance of being courted as an invaluable acquisition to any -of the . mill-spinners in the county she might choose -to honour -with her proposals. New schemes, it has been found, must be devised to keep the operatives at work ; and, ac cordingly, balls have been projected as one of the likeliest -means of success. On Friday last, arrangements were -effected for no fewer than three dancing assemblies for the spinners in Ar bsoath, and one. for those at Friock, in the yid -- fifty.. Beef and Nam, and toddy, and tarts, were profusely distributed. Musicians, not witholett difficulty, were procured for the occasion-;- and` it is said that seven or eight hundred persons of both sexes, decked in attire of no mean aspect, regaled them Selves with the dainties of the sea son.—(Dundee Courier.) . _ An extraordinary flow of water, without any apparent impulse but that of spring tides, oc curred at the morning and afternoon tides of Saturday last, along • the northern coast of this county. The sea rose from 4to 5 feet .perpen dicularly, above the usual height of 'the highest spring tides, ovefflowing the banks and marshes, and ; in some situations, insulating the cottages, which border the shore. The wind blew from. the N. W. and was fortunately light, as h a d it blowh from that' quarter with violence, the most disastrous consequences must have resulted:-L- The only serinu,s, damage we have yet learned, is at Reculver, where the were action of the waves against the west side of 'the cliff occasioned a .considerable portion 'to shoot down, and more particularly at the north-west angle of the burial g.round of the old church, which has exposed 'to view coffins with the mouldering remains of mor tality suspended, as it were, in " the midway air," between -their parent earth and the ocean. Oue of the coffins is that of a person, whom it is remembered had been . interred there, and whos.e body was washed on shOre, he' having .been drowned at sea.—(Kentish Gazette.) ~_ _- 80 5 944 X 49 lii'• ; 9i d Mir.* 7 s 5 3 -C; I 70' i v 49 lgd 1..... w. s 64 , ; 04 ter• s, encl . !, Lon* 1.. of : poi" John' wick: '3n ,C5 ;i t ter . .~' ;11.N .
