PHCENIX FIRE OFFICE.
MR. GEORGE PERRY, Solicitor, Agent
for Stourbridge, begs to remind the public that
the PHCENIX was for many years the only Fire Office
that kept a FIRE ENGINE in the town, and to inform
them that it still keeps one there.
For the keys of the Engine House, apply at the Talbot
Hotel; or to Thos. Robinson, Letter Cutter, Enville-
street, the engineer; and for Terms of Insurance, apply
to the Agent.

The Presidency of the Royal Academy, rendered
vacant by the death of Sir Francis Grant, is an office
of much dignity and importance, though the emolu-
ments are not large. The holder of the post has the
right to claim as much space as he pleases at the
Academy Exhibition for his own productions, and it
was not uncommon for the late President to have eight
or ten of the portraits of eminent persons whom he had
painted, at these annual exhibitions. It may be re-
membered that when Sir Charles Eastlake, the former
President, died, twelve years ago, the office was offered
to Sir Ed win Lan dseer, who, however, declined to accept
it. His health was failing, and at his death, not
long afterwards, his remains were interred in St. Paul's
Cathedral, as a special mark of honour. The
Presidency of the Royal Academy is one of the posi-
tions which entitles its owner to the dignity of knight-
hood. To be a Royal Academician is a much-coveted
honour attained by forty eminent artists only out of
the crowd of able men who compete for the public
favour, but to be the president of such a body of con-
centrated art is a dignity still more sought after, and
the Academecians take care that the chair is filled by
one who can adequately represent them on those
varied occasions when the beauty of modern artistic
work is recognized not only by the critics, but also by
courts and Parliaments.

In the event of a stroke
of good fortune The winnings
