Dols of Art.

41. Z Potter, M.P , was present at the annual meeting
of the Carlisle School
of Art on Friday night, and delivered
an address upon the position and prospects of provincial
schools of art He said the first school of art was opened
ill Somerset House, and was purely for teaching drawing
and designs of manufactures for perhaps some of the most
..W;ea,tithY manufactures of the country. He, in conjunction
;.:"U 8013a0 friends of his own, went there and saw that it
With a good system. They opened a school in Manchester,
i.tile promise of some support, solely for the purpose of
-"'"lng designs for manufacturing purposes. They con-
ducted that some years, but the manufacturers did not thank
thn-
,, via for what they did, and did not give them support.
schools were started at fir.t with very handsome subscrip-
tion..
. 'i and about the Year 1842 a grant of some £lO,OOO, made
"il G°7ernmnt, was distributed among the different scho Is.
Theytirnii first got £250 a year, on condition that they raised a
beingar Baal they then got a larger grant—Manchester
Singular a rather important place—of £430 or £5OO a year.
4. to state, the manufacturers of Manchester had
~I,l4ialshed their subscriptions to half that sum, so
matte did the schools seem valued, They found no sup-
of arty for a school of design, and changed its name to a school
el) hart, which he believed was the right footing. The
lc 00l established in London was transferred to Marl-
ilsorour.t,
~ bu Rouse. Still there clung the idea that they were
t. ttlfed in behalf of the manufacturers. The ruanufac-
irera had not assisted them to any extent. The whole sum
tailnbscrib6d by the manufacturers to the different schools
t°llghout the country in 1862 did not reach £l,OOO a year
...a„,,
pr—' he was afraid that in the centres of manufactures, in
ration to their size, the schools had succeeded worse
tt
the YWhere else. It was admitted that it was no part of
o duty of Government to assist the manufacturers. His

themselves. It might be desirable, however, in

of schools, which could not be self-supporting.
40t h eved that thoroughly good drawing schools could
-.a self-supporting, without Government aid. The
xgaelloota
h. were transferred to South Kensington, and the
t7earo was established there first in 1854 or 1855. The
Leettt Plea for making so great an outlay was, that it would
eetifor collecting samples for manufacturers. That mu-
ne: he should have to refer to as very closely con-
'. '4 With the question of these schools. The mu-
-li,
, '44 and the building at South Kensington had been
tery „„

d
antlered
upon them while the schools being weaker, had

"'GI Rensington had supplied first-class masters to
At. tatcla of ninety schools. That was a great step gained.

so 41, littla included what was given to South Kensington,
...4t , .
tlare th 40 did not think the country schools received
Ve?,, au £15,000 or £16,000 a year. The teaching was
Atii-Joolgood, and they had got to that point when the
%his reight be established upon a sound basis, and be
kt:, tigly valuable (Cheers.) The large mass of the
tetti;e-stW. o thirds of the people—who had no means of
of t, Rthis education were entitled to a much larger share
et: grant than they had hitherto had, and it was the duty 'erY one to try and aid them in getting it, (Cheers)
