PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING.
The Yoniteur contains the following
The Emperor has received letters of congratu-
lation from the Grand Duke of Tuscany, on his
escape from the late attempt on his life.
" In the indictment against the assassin Pianori,
it was stated that on the 28th of April the Em-
peror was attended by only one equerry, whereas
Lieut.-Colonel Valabriq ue was on his left hand and
Col. Ney on his right. The assassin rushed from
the path on the right of the Emperor, but the pre-
sence of Colonel Ney compelled him to place him-
self in front to fire the first shot. Colonel Ney
then having quickly borne down upon him, changed
the direction of the second shot, and entirely frus-
trated the attempt."
It is reported that further changes will be made
in the Cabinet, in addition to what has already
taken place ; that M. Billault, Minister of the
Interior, is to succeed Admiral Hamelin as Minister
of Marine, whose retirement is certain ; that M.
Rouher, Minister of Public Works, will succeed
Billault in the Home Department ; and that
M. Paul de Richemont, one of the directors of the
Paris and Orleans Railways, will take the place of
M. Rouher as Minister of Agriculture, Commerce,
and Public Works.
The following private telegraphic despatches
have been received to-day :
" TRIESTE, Bth.—Accounts from Constantinople
of the 30th ult., state that the Piedmontese troops
will encamp provisionally at Malack, where they
will form the left wing of the French aimy in the
event of the latter marchingou Kaffa. and Perekop.
Baron de Tecco, the Piedmontese Ambassador, has
exchanged the ratifications of the treaty of alliance
with the Porte. Accounts from Asia announce
that Mehemet Warsif Pacha had advanced on Kars
at the head of his staff. Letters from Trebisond,
of the 25th, state that the Khan of Khiva, who
had been committing depredations on the Persian
territory, had been captured and with 27 of his fol-
lowers beheaded at Teheran. It is also mentioned
that Persia would declare in favour of the Porte
immediately after the arrival, at Teheran, of the
French and English Envoys."
" VIENNA, Bth.—General Crawford, who is ap-
pointed to accompany General Hess, left yesterday
with his family for Hazing."
The Emperor yesterday received through the
Marquis de Tany de Nerli, Charge-d'Affaires of
Tuscany, a letter from the Archduke, his sovereign,
bn the occasion of the attempt against his Imperia'
Majesty's life.

Count Walewski, who was summoned to Paris
' y electric telegraph, has taken the oath to the
Emperor, and assumed possession of the ministry of
Foreign Affairs.

The directors of the Exhibition Palace Company
had the honour of an audience of their Majesties
yesterday, to present the collection of medals which
had been struck off for the inauguration of the
Exhibition. The Emperor several times expressed
iris approbation of their execution.
A detachment of one hundred naval gunners
arrived at Havre yesterday from Toulon, on their
way to Cherbourg, where they are to be placed on
hoard the floating batteries and gun-boats of the
Baltic fleet. A detachment of 500 had previously
been sent from Toulon to different ports ; and
there still remain 1,000 gunners at Toulon.
The Valmy, line•of-battle ship, left Toulon on
the Bth for Constantinople, with troops, provisions,
and ammunition for the army of the East.
A letter from Athens, of the 27th ult., in the

pity that the Anglo-French corps of occupation is
about to leave Greece, and that it is to be replaced
by a corps of 400 or 500 men to be supplied by a
great German Power, of which the name is not

The 87th annual exhibition of theßoyal Academy was
opened to public view on Monday last, and, we need
scarcely say, was crowded throughout the morning with
the aristocracy, the elite of fashion, of literature, and of the
patrons and lovers of the fine arts. Indeed, so great was
the pressure in every part of the rooms tGat it was with
the greatest difficulty that one could obtain even a brief
sod passing view of the principal pictures "on the line,"
but more particularly of those which appeared to form
the chief points d'attraction, and of which we shall pre-
sently speak.
Whilst it cannot for a moment be denied that this
year's exhibition is satisfactory as an indication of the
present standard of painting in this country, at the
same time, we imagine, a feeling akin to disappoint-
ment will naturally arise in the mind of the careful ob-
server from the fact that some of the leading and recog-
nised maestros in different schools, if the term may be
permitted, are by no means so fully or so favourably re-
presented as on previous occasions. This arises, how-
ever, more from the character of the subjects they have
chosen as the vehicles of their peculiar talents that
from any inferiority in their style or execution, or defi-
ciency in the manner in which they ate rendered ; whilst
the comparatively narrow compass into which, in some
instances, their efforts have been compressed leaves
much more to be desired than is actually presented to
the eye. There is, besides, speaking in a wide
sense, a visible absence of grand historical and
scriptural works, and of rare and happy ima-
ginative conceptions out of the ordinary range, such
as we have of late been so accustomed to look for in the
exhibitions of the Royal Academy. Nevertheless, we
repeat, there is much to gratify as well as to admire
amongst the almost endless diversity of compositions
which adorn the crowded walls.
We will in the first place notice a,,picture relative to
which the greatest curiosity and interest seems to have
been exc'ted, not merely from the fact of its being the
production of a young artist whose name has been
hitherto unknown, and who, we believe, is now studying
in Rome, or the circumstance that it has been already
purchased for her Majesty for the handsome sum of
6001.—though these are startling enough—but also from
its intrinsic merits. We allude to "Tile Procession of
Cimabue's celebrated Madonna through the streets of
Florence," by Mr. F. Leighton (569). It is a composi-
tion of large dimensions, and bold and daring in concep-
tion and handling, yet every obvious difficulty is sur-
mounted in the most complete and triumphant manner.
The story is simple enough : "In front of the Ma-
donna and crowned with laurels walks Cimabue hitnself,
with his pupil Giotto; behind it Arnolfo di Lapo, Gaddo
Gaddi, Andrea Tafls Nicola Pisano, Buffalinacco and
Simone Memini; in the corner Dante." The procession
is equally simple, but it is endowed with so much
motion and vitality that the impression of its
truthfulness in every detail is irresistible. Detail is,
however, one of the most prominent as it is one of the
most remarkable characteristics of the work ; yet the
accuracy of drawing, the variety of attitude, the rich and
harmonious colouring, and the perfect order and keep-
ing of the whole combing and produce an effect; of the
most successful description. The work is essentially a
novelty; but of so high a class that it stamps the genius a,nd
originality of the artist, as we hope it does his reputation.
Passing onwards the eye is at once caught by the ex-
tended proportions of " Rome" (594) by Mr. D, Roberts.
The work is a noble one, and fully equal to any of this
master's former productions. The point of view selecte
is quite fresh, and presents the once-famed aid s

._._
interesting city in an entirely different aspect to any we
have previously seen. The foreground is upon a consi-
derable elevation, beneath which flows the lazy Tiber in
its circuitous course, and Rome with its numberless
domes, campaniles, and strada spreads out and around
into the distance with a panoramic comprehensiveness.
The mantle of the coming twilight is gradually wrapping
the scene in its grey and sombre folds —but the setting
sun gilds with splendour The summits of its fretted
roofs and temples, and exquisitely realises the descrip-
tive lines :

" Thou hast thy sunset's glow,
Rome ! for thy dower,
Flushing tall cypress bough,
Temple, and tower !"

Mr. IVlaclise is represented by the scene before the
Duke's Palace wherein Orlando is about to engage with
the Duke's wrestler (78). It is an effort the individuality
of which no one can mistake. Though by no means
on so large a scale as the subject in such hands might
have warranted with advantage, it is replete with the
most deep and careful study both of the characters
themselves and in the portrayal of the emotions by
which each is at the moment animated. The Duke sits
anxiously and impatiently on his throne awaiting the
coming conflict ; on his left is the slim yet graceful Or-
lando, who addresses Rosalind in the soft and gentle
language attributed to him by the great bard. Rosa-
lind and Celia, who intervene, clasping each other's
hands, beam from their countenances the kindest hope
for the issue of the struggle—the former speaking more
ineaningly by looks than words to her modest lover as
she says, " The little strength I have, I would it were
with you." Perhaps the only repulsive figure in the
whole group is the wrestler, a personification of mere
brute strength, elevated by no particle of mind. The sly
roguish expression of Touchstone, as he looks upwards
from where he is reclining full into the pale and thought-
ful face of Rosalind, is capital. The subordinate cha-
racters are cleverly put in ; the colouring is rich, and the
execution is of that soft texture and delicate minuteness
for which this great artist is so deservedly admired. We
prefer the style and spirit of Mr. Frith when it is applied
to the working out of such charming little studies as his
"-Maria tricking Malvolio (108) in the Wood," than when
lisplayed in such incidents as "At the Opera " (305), or
" The Lovers" (126), though, in the last-mentioned class,
he shone out very conspicuouslf at last year's exhibition.
Each of these, however, in their way, will well repay an
attentive inspection. Of the three contributions sent
by Mr. Egg we think it will be readily admitted that
the "Life and Death of Buckingham " (394), which is in'
reality two pictures, is decidedly the best in many re-
spects. It illustrates two striking phases in the career
)f the pampered lust ill-fated courtier, and is, we sup-
pose, intehded to inculcate the mural—to use the trite
words of Scott--" of the instability of human greatness,
and the transitory value of earthly possessions." On the
due hand, we find him in the midst of a scene of dis-
solute debauchery, surrounded by a gay and profligate°
circle, and all that affluence can command to minister to
sensual luxury. On the other, we see him alone and
friendless, stretched on a miserable pallet, ine if possi-
ble, a more miserable garret, just as the last agonies of
death are past. The contrast is striking and effective,
and the story is well and plainly told ; but we could
have wished that the features of his companions in the
first part had been less harsh and disagreeable. "Come,
rest in this bosom"- (136), by the same artist, is, we
think, neither sentimental nor felicitous ; but his
" Through the green shade wandering" (127), is very
pretty and very pleasing. The only production
shown by the President, Sir Charles L. Eastlake,
"Beatrice" (120), is somewhat tame and mean-
ingless ; but is not, nevertheless, wanting in beauty
and fiaish in an artistic sense.----M. E. M. Ward has
also contented himself with simply sending a portrait of
LientaGeneral Hearsey, in the dress of the Native
Irregular Cavalry, H.E.1.C.5." (137) "Lear recovering
his reason at the sight of Cordelia" (149), by Mr. J.
ft. Herbert, is a very fine conception. The dawn °lre-
'timing intellect in the grey-haired and grief-stricken
~h 1 monarch, and the faint struggle ef mental energy, as
he slowly recalls the beloved' image of his sweet en-
learing daughter, and exclaims—" Methinks I should
know you. Yet lam doubtful. Do not laugh at me.
For as I am a man, I think this lady to be my child, Cm--
lelia"—is marvellously rendered ; whilst' the agitation
'twixt brightening hope and anxious fear, lest her joy
-honld be pre nature, is eloquently expressed in the face
of the beautiful Cordelia.—Mr. S. A. Hart has two
pictures. The larger one (225) is descriptive of the
" Captivity of Eccelino, the tyrant of Padua," who,
when, taken prisoner to Soncino, rejected all medical
and spiritual aid, tore the bandages from his wounds,
and refused food, until death put an end to his obstinate
resistance. The tyrant is depicted in the act of thrusting
from him, with a scornful gesture, the refreshment
proffered to him by a sweet girl. The other (827) is
irawn from Shakepere's Othello—where the cunning and deceitful lago first attempts to Iltl lertnine the affec-
',ion of the Moor. In this the attitudes are excellent ;
the countenance of Othello, especially, is exceedingly
felicitous, as indicating the birth of that
suspicion which
so soon cankers into jealousy and hate. Mr. Millais,
in "The Rescue" (282), has agein favoured
us with a display of some extraordinary eccentricity ; which trait
is exemplified, in the first place, by the title of the pic-
ture, which is very vague. The subject too is ordinary
ind common-place enough ; yet there is an attraction
about the work, from its very singularity, which impels
ne towards, and to look into, it ; and it is only upon a
close examination that the meaning and purpose of the
artist becomes evident. The scene embodies one of
those stirring incidents in every-day life—a house on fire
—and the moment selected by Mr. Millais is when, the
upper part of the dwelling being enveloped in a mass of
lurid flame, a sturdy fireman has succeeded in re-cuing a
couple of fine children from destruction, and is descend-
ing the stairs safely with them. At the foot, the over-
joyed mother, clad in her night dress, stretches out her
eager arms to receive them. The two boys are well
drawn, the frightened aspect of the one on
their deliverer's back, being natural and truth-
ful ; whilst the firm step and cool courageous
mien of the fireman are capitally rendered. Terror
mingled with gratitude for the hairbreadth escape,
of the children is the feeling sought to be inspired by
these leading features and their accessories. In the latter
the artist has lost no opportunity of enhancing the
horror of the scene. The burnt night gown of the elder
boy, the perfect torrent of conflagration through which
the party apparently had to pass, and the curling flame
that has begun to eat its destructive way through the stair
on which the fireman is treading—all speak plainly to
the peril of the moment. In these, as in other parts of
the picture, there appears, at first sight, something akin
to exaggeration ; but the impression gives way to a feel- j
ing of an opposite kind as the picture is attentively in- J
