THE AIITS.—We noticed, a few months ago,
an admirable Portrait of the Essayist Aux Doc,
brought from the North Pole by Captain PARRY.
The animal, though mild in its nature, bore a ter-
rific aspect. The Portrait was taken at the Ad.
miralty, by Mr. HAWKINS, one of the most pro-
mising young artists of the day. He has since
made a Lithographic Engraving from the Por-
trait, which displays considerable ability in this
province of art, and renders full justice to his
own masterly picture.
Lady BELL, relict of the late Sir TROIKAS
BELL, has recently been permitted to copy some
of the most valuable Paintings at Carlton Palace.
The skill of this Lady as a copyist is well
known, and several.of her later productions have
been honoured by the approbation of his MA.
JESTY. So much for the credit of female genius
in this country.

FUNERAL OF TIIE LATE R. REVILL, ESQ.—Soon
after two o'clock yesterday, the remains of this respected Ma-
gistrate were removed from his house at Stoke Newington to
the Church-yard of that Parish. The hearse was followed by

Rev. G. Gaskin, Rector of the Parish, and Mr. Santer. In the
second coach were—Messrs. Twyford and AVix, the Magis-
trates ; Counsellor Alley and Mr. Bond. A number of Officers,
• all in mourning, followed.— Th e Burial Service was performed
most solemnly and impressively by the Rector, nearly 75 years
of age, who had been an intimate friend of the deceased.—Mr.
Bevil' had been fOr several years one of the Presiding Magis-
trates at Worship-street Pol;ce Office; he was also Recorder
of Lynn in Norfolk, and from a conscientious discharge of his
public duties, and a faithful attachment to all the virtuous
relations of life, he secured to himself general respect and
esteem.
