Pounce AND ART.—Mr. Bamford Dope, is
kie addrsee cm the "People's Share in Art," lea week,
at the Architectural Museum, went ant of his way
to have a fling at the people of the northern
portico of the Milted States. He spoke incorrectly
when he said that the wet in that country had pro..
doped no better poetry than the mieemble doggerel about
tits soul of John Brown marching on. Mr. Whittier has
Produed some lyrical poetry on the American war, as vital
and stirring es any written by Campbell, Dibdon, or Kamer.
It would be well, therefore, for Mr. Hope, before he
speaks of the artistic shortcomings of the times, to
first inform himself • little more secarately. Our object
now, however, is not so much to analyse Mr. Hops's
elit‘dstra as to protest against his making • neutral
art platform a mesas of political propagandises. Mr.
Hopi said that the war maintained by the North
Was a media of might against right. What
has the Americas war to do with the art education
of the people of England? If any other lecturer had abused
the privileges of a neutral platform, and said In en art
Miters that slavery w • system of might against right,
as it noluestionably is., and that the South is fighting might
sad main for the maintenance of slavery, and that one of
the objects of the North wan to annihilate slavery, Mr. Hope,
ens think, would have been among the first to strongly gm-
Coo the propriety of introducing such a topic in such a
lecture. The government have very wisely assumed as&
maintained • neutral attitude towards both parties in
the quarrel; sod as the South Kensington Mu-
seum is surtaioed by government void mosey,
it would be good testa, as well as sound jai-
rant fir all who lecture on art within its walls
to disregard the example set them by Mr. Holm, and to
my nothing in favour or in condemnation of the North or
South. Opinion I. divided on this as on ovary other (lega-

"kW be unwise to mingle political controversy and art
