THE EXHIBITION OF THE FRENCH SCHOOL

OF FINE ARTS.

On Saturday last this very interesting collection of
paintings closed for the season. The interest caused by the
masterly work of Mdlle. Honhenr—the " Horse Fair"—
increased hourly from the first moment of its befog exhi-
bited ; as many as six to eight hundred persons eongtegatisg
daily in the Gallery In Pall-mall to do homage to %hernias
of the fair artist.
It is gratifying to have to record that the very high
honour of a Battering communication from the Queen has
been conferred upon Mdlle. Bonheur, at the moment %fiber
fine performance being removed front London. The Queen
sent (or the picture a few days since to Buchioghant Falun,
whence it was returned to Oho Gallery with • letter from
Col. Biddulph, in which that gentlemen stated that he wee
commended to present her Majesty's compliments and
thanks to Mdlle. Bonheur for the opportunity afforded he
of inspecting _Mdlle. Ra_ah_ear's " magnificent picture."
As we stated some deys since, the whole collection, ill-
ehadirg the last-named celebrated work, will be immediately
transferred to Glasgow, where the exhibition will Deepened
on the 12th. The railway authorities, upon being informed
of the nature of the precious burden about to be submitted
to their care, have very courteously ordered that immediate
arrangements be made for its safe and speedy transminion to
the north.
