The Chamber of Deputies was occupied on
Nlooday in discusiing the chapter on the law of the

Paris. In the course of the discussion M. Di Gl-
easont urged the propriety of enforcing the law
of the Constituent 'Assembly, which tppointed the
whores of St. 'Genevieve as the burying place of
. Viesissent men. The.Chettiber did not listen very
. to ab htsturfeal sketch which he thought it
convenient to give them respecting VOLTA lie and
Ruussese, but he mentioned one iuteresting
fact connected with the late invasion of France,
which merited something more of respect than
the very risible temper of the right side of
'the Chamber seemed disposed to offer. General
iiivenea had, on one occasion, established his bead-
'Torten at Blessis-Bellevoe, and, casting his eye
over the melt of the snrtouuding country, lie
Amsted to see the mime of the village of Erinenon-
sine: on lognire he learned that the tomb of Roes.

the village should be' protected-Nen every'
Vides of military aggression, and that none of hia;,
• t-tililleste should be quartered in 'the phiei. This
toesiteilloste was strictly obeyed. M. De GIRAItDIN
• 'ilier stated, as from his personal knowledge,
--elln'the Prussia!' Generals who visited the tomb
- toe off their hats as they approached it, to testify
their respect to the memory of the illustrious
• Frenchman. Such an incident, occurring in the
;midst of a war conducted upon principles of more
•••thati.ordistary violence, is a mach more grateful
....eobject for the contemplation of a philosophic
mind, and reflects fee higher honour upon the
individuals concerned in it than the sanguinary
•Vorics of a thousand victories.

7th March, the Secretary of State read several

finances of that province, and the remedies that
hove been adopted for the present, &c.

sled Minas, they would send a representation to the
Cortes that they might decide accordi ,g to their
*lilies. His Royal Highness declared that lie would
do every thing to preserve order, sud if necessary
iissard his life in defence of the constitutional

EINE ARTS.
EGYPTIAN HALL, PICCADILLY.

MR. MARTIN'S PICTURES.
Mr. 111.111RTIN's Exhibition was tiptoed to private inspection
yesterday. The chief attraction will he his new piece of
71e Destruction of Pompeii and flerenlannun, painted for
the Duke of Recatiattax. Tbere is no need of going into
all the historical particulars, which Mr. MAaTIN has set
forth with astonishing assiduity and topographical minute-
ness of detail. The picture is quite without the bounds of
description. The subject is owe of appalling sublimity:
the treatment corresponds. The deluges of Bre, which
are only variable is bum of horror—the sleet of
eery mod mingled with the sky, sod falling dense
as the earth's surface in the devoted city, already Ob-
scured by the shower—the deadly blue of the hot and
lur-
buleot waves, their tops curled with Rime, amid which
the ships are tossed, and the distracted crews rocked idto
pbysieal as well as mortal oblivioe—and the grasp, hr.
;eluding the Kula, his household and military attesilsols,
all waiting oil the fore-roved for t►e completion et the
law confounding and hopeless of ►ll evils e►er experienced
unman kind—these are the points which are chiefly ob.
nee able on the Ant glance at the compcaltioo. A closer
lorpection developer the multiplied labour of touch and tint
by which Mr. MAIILTIN works up his perspective, perhaps
. beyond any other Artist. The drawing of the human figure
is generally defective. The colourlsg Is a justifiable excess
of the brilliant hues of the Artist's pallet, by which he has
drawn them out into a general tune of absolute horror, and
of an effect of utter concternatloo.

The pictures pf the Fall of Babylon—of Ilfaebeth—ibe
Impulsion fro* Paradtismead the Welsh Bard, form the
next attractions la the Exhibition. There are besides se.
vend of his studies fur the most excellent of his works; so
that a morning can scarcely be spent sure agreeably than in
the perms! of the works of this very diligent and highly
prusisiog Artist.
