We have learnt with satisfaction, that 'Madame EmilieH.

im the encabe;e manner of painting of the ancients. Ilet-
ivoiki were laid before the Institute, which appointed a com-
rnio.ion to examine them, and her attempts were pronounced
the most perfect of all tnose till then n,.ade, and most like
the style of the ancients. Not only all the newspapers of 'he
time mentioned thew facts, but they were al-o recorded in
the second volume of the Journal of Arts and Nlanufactures,
by Mr. O'Relly Madame `lot in paints portraits in oil, in
miniature, and in water-colours, in Isabev's new style. We
tit:del-stand, that yielding to the request of her friends in this
country, thi. Lady will receive several young pupils in her

So LOMON AND THE CAT.—The following curious cir-
cuinstance may be relit d on as a feet, which occurred during
the Iflte fire at Ilanksiue :—ln one of the houses that ap-
pealed as one sheet of fit e, the firemen perceived a cat sitting
on some fags which were in the midst of the flames; the
cat cried " mew ! mew I" mot bitterly, finding her escape
impossible. One of the firemen who saw and heard her,
cried out to So!om,m, a Jew, who assisted them to work at
the engine, " Solomon, you hear the cat (Os out Jew !
Jew !" Solomon looked up and perceived the perilous situa-
tion of the unforunate cat, who cried out again " mew !
!new I" Solomon most emphati,ally cried, " you shall not
be disappointed in the Jew, if, at the tisk of my life, I can
save you." tie ter ew up a rope, to which there was a hunk
attached, which fortunately stuck in the sack, and with a
quirk jerk, he pulled the sack from the midst of the flames,
and also the cat, whose hair was all singed from the fire.
During an hour afterwards whilst he worked at the engine,
the ca' never ruined him, but held fast on his shoulder, or
sat near him, on the engine; and he afterwards brought the
cat haute to his own house, No. 5, Little Drury-lane.
