THE SUN,

nent painter, but one whose genius is not yet gene-
rally recognised, Paul Falconer Poole, will be fbund
to have contributed to the collection two works
which in time (perhaps when he has uohappily been
withdrawn from us, like Etty, by death) will be
among the glories of our national art—we mean his
impressive representation of " Job and the Messen-
gers " (No. 39), and his great picture of " Solomon
Eagle in the Plague of London" (No. 5), one of the
noblest creations that ever marked the capacity of
an English artist. Leslie's " Scene from the Vicar
of Wakefield" (No. 20), will likewise, as a display of
excellence in an entirely different department of art,
secure to itself the scrutiny of those who can really
appreciate what is natural and humorous. Indifferent
as may be the general appearance of the colouring, a
faint pink pervading the picture and predominating
rather unpleasantly over all other hues, the work, as
an illustration of Goldsmith, is happy to a miracle,
from the fly-trap on the ceiling, and the orange-hold-
ing portraits on the wainscot, to the Hon. Miss
Skeggs and the most decidedly dishonourable Lady
Blarney. Two specimens of Turner will win the
admiration of every discerning eye, one (No. 7) re-
presenting " The Whaler," and another (No. 16) a
masterly display of his rare and unequalled power,,,
depicting " The Burning of the Houses of Parlia-
ment." In one part of the gallery we noticed, more-
over, Ores wick's lovely little jewel of a picture (No.
37), " The Terrace, Haddon-hall, Derbyshire ;"
elsewhere Herbert's (No. 14) " Christ and the
Woman of Samaria," and several admirable speci-
mens of William Muller. Altogether, as we have
beforeintimated, the collection displayed on the walls
of Mr. \Vass's Gallery, is such as cannot fail to win
the admiration of all who visit it, provided only they
do so with a judicious estimate of British art, and of
the genius of those painters who are among the num-
ber of our contemporaries.

pole dance is singularly pretty, and the running in
sacks, wheelbarrow races, jingling, &c., excite peals of

more, who must have gone to no inconsiderable ex-
pense for the dresses and garlands, which have a fresh
and brilliant appearance, without the slighest tawdri-
ness. We have never seen an entertainment of the
kind produce so striking and pleasing an effect as
was the case on the sunny afternoon of Tuesday last.
These sports of " Merrie England" will be repeated in
the gardens to-day, at half-past four o'clock.

THE PRINCE OF WALES'S BAZAAR.

A curious collection of paintings, by masters of the
French and Flemish schools, not generally known in
this country, has recently been added to the other at-
tractions of this establishment. Having ourselves in-
spected the works of art here gathered together, we
can speak with some degree of emphasis of their aver-
age excellence. Several of the pictures, besides being
singular from the circumstance of their antiquity, are
singular also for the genius revealed in their concep-
tion. We may allude, as examples of this, to a noble
head of St. Francis of Assisi, a head remarkable for
its expression of rapt and ecstatic aspiration. A
" Crucifixion" and " Last Supper" are contained in
the gallery, deserving of especial notice for the bril-
liancy of their colouring, notwithstanding the lapse of
time which has succeeded their original production.
Various portraits of the age immediately anterior to
that of Louis Quatorze will be found not altogether
undeserving of the notice of visitors; their curiosity
being repaid equally in other departments, as in that
of the representation of fruit and flowers. The
Koh-i-noor, however, among all the jewels of art,
has not yet been particularized. It will be enough to
say, that the picture gallery of the Prince of Wales's
Bazaar, contains a magnificent specimen of Paulo
Veronese to induce all the lovers of genius to follow
our example, by themselves visiting this singular and
interesting exhibition.

THE ART JOURNAL.

August brings us with the fruits of nature those
also of art, as may be recognised by a glance at the
pages of this splendid pictorial publication. In it we
find united the attractions of the original periodical—
and those, as its subscribers have long been aware, are
sufficiently numerous—and of an illustrated catalogue,
explanatory of the Great Industrial Exhibition. Tho
enterprise evinced in this twofold undertaking
will inevitably meet with the encouragement
to which it is so eminently and peculiarly
entitled. As additional engravings from the
pictures contained in the Vernon Gallery we have
this month Wyatt's noble head of " The Astrono-
mer," and Wilson's delicious representation of "Lake
Avernus," the former engraved by Bell and the latter
by Bentley. The plate portraying a copy from a
sculptured original, is by S. IL Baker, and is taken
from Theed's marble group of " The Prodigal Son "
returned to the embrace of his father. As a bio-
graphy, embellished with woodcuts, we find likewise
in the current number of the Art Journal, the life of
"John Both," preceeded by a likeness. Woodcuts we
call the illustrations, though they appear to us in their
scratchy minuteness to bear a strong resemblance to
specimens of glyphography. The letter-press of the
Art Journal, it may be observed, is of average ex-
cellence, the leading paper in the instalment before
us relating to a subject of some interest, namely, to
the lighting of picture and sculpture galleries.
Among the illustrations given in the supplementary
portion, will be remarked a clever sketch of the colossal
equestrian statue of Godfrey de Bouillon, one of the
most extraordinary works of art contributed to the
Great Industrial Exhibition.

THE

explosion happened, Mr. George Rhodes, one of the part-
ners in the firm was going into the willow room, and
upon opening a door leading into it from the principal
mill he was met by a cloud of dust followed by a rush
of steam. He at once shut the door, and returned
to the mill, from the lower floor of which ha sent out
lull the workpeople, being afraid that the dan-
ger was not over. Some of these people going
round to the door leading from the willow room
into the mill yard, and finding that room full of steam
and a portion of the flooring fallen in, were at once con-
vinced that the three men, whom they could not see,
must be severely injured. After the steam had some-
what cleared away, some persons descended into the
firing hole, where they found the three men, who had
been working in the willow room, lying on the fallen
flag. The men were at once brought out, when it was
found that Winterbottom was quite dead, The other
two were still alive, but almost immediately expired.
Mr. Elliot, surgeon, was speedily in attendance, but was
of course unable to render any assistance, and the bo-
dies were soon afterwards removed to the Red Lion
public-house, at Austerlands, where they are now lying.
The bodies are all very severely scalded, but do not ap-
pear to have sustained any injury from the fall; and
there can be no doubt that, as stated by the surgeon,
death was caused by the scalding.
Upon examination, it was Lund that one of the plates
in tho upper part of the flue, immediately over the fire-
box had been rent by the explosion to the length of
eighteen inches. The boiler was not moved from its
pc.ition, nor was any
damage done to the machinery
it trio building, with the exception of the throwing
down of the wall, and the falling of the large flag-
stone already mentioned. The cause of the accident
has not yet been abcertained. The names of
the deceased were Samuel Lord, leptenter. about
forty years of age, living at Le..s; Jonah Brierley
willower, about fifty or fifty-five years of age, living
at Hey; and James `Vint-rbottom, willower, about 35,
also living at Hey. Lord and Brierley have both left
widows; the former one, the latter two children. Win_
terbottom was unmarried. The inquest is expected to
be held to-day (Wednesday) at the lied Lion, Auster-
hndia,—Manchester Guardian of yesterday.

GRAND MARINE REGATTA A

LOWESTOFT.
LOWESTOFT, TUESDAY NIGHT.—This day the grand
annual marine regatta took place atLowestott, under the
patronage of Sir Thomas Marion Wilson, Bart., S. M.
Pete, Esq., M.P. and a large body of members of the
Eastern Yacht Club, and was most numerously and
fashionably attended. Amongst the company present
were Lord Alfred Paget, S. M. Peto, Esq., M.P., Mrs.
Pete and family; Colonel and Miss Hardy, Captain and
Mrs. Lethes and family, the Rev. Dr. Bird and Mrs. Bird,
Mr., Mrs., and Miss Clarke, J. Ouchin, Esq., J. Green,
Efq., Mr. Vernon, the Misses Leighs, Captain Ellis, Cap-
tain Preston, Mr. Webber, J. R. Burkett, Esq., J. Clay,
Lq., W. Ashcroft, Esq., &c. &c.
From an early hour in the morning trains continued
to pour in visitors from London, Norwich, and Yar-
mouth, until mid-day. Several vessels in the har-
bour were gaily dressed in the colours of all nations,
and the pier and esplanade were crowded with elegantly
dressed ladies and their families. A considerable num-
ber of persons took advantage of the steamers lying in
the harbour, and accompanied the different matches
round the course. The course for yachts, yawls, and
beats, was from the moorings laid down abreast Of the
New South Pier Head, thence to the South buoy off
Newcombe, thence through the Stamford Channel, round
the light-ship under the shoal buoy, thence to the start-
ing place, passing between the pier and the cutter an.
chored abreast. Twice round the course, passing all the
buoys on the port. The distance sailed was about
twenty miles.
The first match of the day was sailed by yawls, for
a purse of 30 sovereigns. At half-past eleven the following
vessels left the starting vessel off the South Pier Head:—
Eclipse, 54, feet,- Lowestoft—White.
Grey hound,44 feet, Lowe stoft—White, black, and yellow.
Royal Vietoris,'6 t feet, Yarmouth—Red and white.
Queen Victoria, 64 feet, Yarmouth—Blue and red.
Roindeer, 69 feet, Yarmouth—Blue and red.
Taese vessels got away well together, the Royal Vic-
toria, however, slightly taking the lead, followed closely

The match was rendered most interesting from the

being on the first round but a bowsprit length between
them. On coming round the pier on the first round
the Greyhound, having unshipped her gaff, gave up the
contest. The second round caused the greatest excite-
ment, and the vessels, after a very animated race, came
in in the &liming order;--

(LEFT SITTING.)

BO `V-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
John Easton, porter and carter to Mr. Milligan, of
Hungerford -market, hay and straw dealer,was charged be-
fore Mr. Hall with stealing a load of hay, value 2/. 105,s
the property of his employer.
It appeared that, on Saturday last, the prisoner "0
sent with the hay to the stables of the London Con'
veyance Company, for whom it had been ordered, but
on arriving there it was found that the order had been
premature; the hay was not wanted, and the stable'
keeper could not take it in, not having room for it I°
his lofts. Instead of taking the hay back to the ware:
house the prisoner offered to one of the companY,6,
men to give him half the proceeds if he would se"
the load for him to any horsekeeper he knew 10
the neighbourhood. That person refused to have anr
thing to do with the matter, and the prisoner sold the
hay that day to a Mr. Edwards, in Windmill-streets
Haymarket, for twenty-five shillings.
The prisoner's defence was that Mr. Barton, the
foreman of Mr. Milligan, had told him to do what be
liked with the hay if the company did not take it In•
He could not account for his forgetting to pay in the
money he received from Mr. Edwards, and for not say,
_
keg any thing about the retusal of the company to take
the hay sa orders-d for their stables.
Mr. Bart,n distinctly denied that statement as ridicu-
lous and impossible.
The prisoner was fully committed.

THE SYNOD MOVEMENT.—With little surprise,
though certainly not without satisfaction, we have noted the
increasing prevalence of a rumour - now understood to 171
well-founded—that the Synod of Exeter is to be followed
immediately by a similar pronunciation on the part of the
diocese of Chichester; while other reports, not yet per
clothed with a tangible form, but still bearing every Inark °,l
probability, indicate the cathedral cities of Wells and Oxfor
as likely to follow in the same path in the course of the Pre-
sent autumn.— Guardian.

WESTMINSTER COUNTY COURT, July 30.
(Before FRANCIS BAYLEY, Esq., Judge.)
MANAGERS AND ACTORS.—LEE V. FARREN.
The plaintiff in this action is Mr. H. Lee, the light
comedian, who sought to recover from the defendant,
Mr. W. Farren, the respected lessee of the Olympic
Theatre, the sum of 10/. under the following circum-
stances.
Mr. Lewis, of Ely-place, appeared for the plaintiff,
and Mr. Herring, of Lisson-grove, for the defendant.
The' case occupied some hours, but a condensed ac-
count will suffice.
The plaintiff stated that on Easter Monday last he
was engaged by the defendant to perform " characters,"
at a salary of 21. per week. The first part he took was
that of Sir Roger de Coverley, then the Bottle Imp, Ro.
cheater, in Charles the Second, the Marquis, in Faint
Heart Never Won Fair Lady, Bco. He went on very
well, and with apparent satisfaction to the management,
till Wednesday, the 2d instant, when, being requested
to take the subordinate part of Captain Gervais, the first
officer of Sir E. Bulwer Lytton" play of the Lady of
Lyons, be indignantly refused, and was immediately dis-
missed, 11. being offered him for three nights' services
from the Saturday, on which night an engagement com-
mences from, and which he would not accept, as he
thought he was entitled to his 21. for the current week,
and St, a month's salary, in lien of a month's notice.
For these amounts he now had instituted the present
proceedings.
Mr. John Richard Smith, an actor of 59 years' stand-
ing, said he was the original Bottle Imp, and from his
experience, thought the man who played such a part
would lower himself by acting as Captain Gervais, which
ought only to be appointed to what were termed "utility
men," or men who did anything.—(Laughter.)
Mr. Attwood, who styled himself an "Old Actor,"
coincided with the last witness. What was termed a
" utility man" was not even on a footing with a walking
gentleman.—(Laughter.)
JUDGE—W hat is a walking gentleman? Mr. Smith
—Perhaps, from my long experience, I can toll your
Honour, if Mr. Attwood will allow me. It is a distinct
line of character frequently performed by the plaintiff,
and represents a devout lover and a well-dressed young
man.—(Laughter.)
His HONOUR here observed that no evidence was
brought forward of any specific arrangement between
the plaintiff and defendant, and he could not even give
judgment for the IL alleged to have been offered. With-
out, therefore, calling upon Mr. Herring to reply, he
should give judgment in favour of his client, with an
order upon the plaintiff for the costa of his attorney.

THE GENTLEMAN'S.

Mr. Peter Cunningham, whose admirably told
story of Nell Gwynne is continued in the present
number, has, by inspecting the accounts of the Pay-
master of Works and Buildings to King Charles 11.
from April, 1676, to March, 1677, discovered that
the carved pedestal of the statue of King Charles I.
at Charing-cross, is the work not of Grinlin Gibbons,
as has been generally supposed, but of Joshua Mar-
shall, Master Mason of the Works to King Charles
11. The extracts from the curious Day-books of
Dr. Henry Sampson are concluded; we hope that a
perfect edition of this very curious work will be ere
long given to the world. The paper on the present
state of the Record Office we commend to the serious
attention of the authorities. This number is illus-
trated by portraits of the two sons of Nell Gwynne
and by various archeological drawings.

MR. LUMLEY'S FETE.

The manager of her Majesty's Theatre paid, on
Friday, his usual annual homage to his fashionable
and literary patrons, in the form of a de:joiner et
ête artibtiques. The fineness cf the afternoon, which
was brilliant, but not sultry, attracted a large at-
tendance at the grounds attached to Mr. Lumley's resi-
dence, nest. Hammersmith. With his usual tact, the
manager of her Majesty's Theatre availed himself of one
of the days appointed for the Thames regatta, and, in
consequence, among the entertainments provided was
the spectacle of some boat-racing, which afforded much
diversion to the spectators. The grounds include a pro-
menade by the side of the river, which, being studded
with craft of every description, from the steam-boat to
the wager-boat, presented a very lively picture. But
there were various other entertainments arranged. Bands
of music, military and civil, were engaged, and performed
during the afternoon. At dusk, coloured fires reminded
one of the finale of many an opera, and some fireworks
from a barge on the river lighted up the scenery with
their unwonted glare. Illumination lamps, of divers
colours, were strung across portions of the grounds, and
a platform for dancing was laid down near the house.
Refreshments were procurable during the whole fete,
both al fresco and iu the house itself; rn3, in short,
every provision was made fur the gratification of the
subscribers to, and supporters of, the theatre under Mr.
Lumley's direction.

MISS KATE LODER'S CONCERT.

This accomplished pianiste gave a matinee musicale on
Saturday at the New Beethoven Rooms, in Queen
Anne-street, when a host el artistic talent supported the
fair beneficiare. Among the instrumentalists were Ernst,
Richardson, J. Day, Dando, and Hancock, and the prin-
cipal vocal parts were sustained by M.adlles Catherine
Hayes, Williams, Dolby, and Hill; Messieurs Bodda,
Reichart, T. Williams and Ferrari. Miss Hayes gave
her celebrated "Ah mon fits" from the Prop/lite with
exquisite purity and expression, and also sang for the
first time a pleasing ballad composed expressly for her
by Macfarren (who presided at the pianoforte on this
occasion) entitled "The Lonely One." To criticise or
eulogise Catherine ayes is now superfluous.
In florid vocalisation, sweetness, and feeling,
she stands unsurpassed, and we congratulate
our American friends on the rich treat in
store for them, confident of the delightful sensation
which the Irish linnet, as well as the Swedish nightin-
gale, will cause among them. At the concert given in
honour of the American Minister, by Mr. Peabody, on
the 9th inst., Miss Hayes sung her favourite, "Ab!
mon fill;.' and in a trio, from I Lombardi, together
with Gardoni and Lablache; and a duo, from Le Ire
Nozze, with the former, elicited the genuine enthusiasm
of that brilliant assemblage o; rank and fashion.

GERMANY.

We find the following in the Patrie :—" We have
announced that the Senate of Hamburgh had remon-
strated with the Cabinet of Vienna against the occu-
pation of that city by Austrian troops. Prince DE
SCHWARTZERBURG has replied that his Government
had only to consider the interests of the defence of the
territory and of order, and that those interests called
for the maintenance of that occupation, and conse-
quently he refused to accede to the demand made by
the Senate of Hamburgh." •
A letter from Frankfort of the Ist in the Indepen-
dance of Brussels says :—" It is believed Austria will
contract a loan of from 60,000,000 to 100,000,000
florins. The Austrian funds will therefore probably
advance considerably, as the consolidation of a great
part of the floating debt is expected."
The Universal Gazette of Nassau states that the
Count DX CHAMBORD will not visit Wiesbaden this
year. _

A decree of the Government of Hesse Cassel of the
2d declares that public functionaries shall be relieved
of all responsibility for their acts done by orders of
their superiors.
The Duke of AUGUSTBNBURG, who was compro-
mised in the insurrection of Schleswig-Holstein, has
just left the Duchies with his family to reside in a
town in Southern Germany.
A Berlin letter of the 3d states that the Zollverein
is about to propose to Belgium a commercial treaty
on a new basis. The free-traders demand that the
privileges at present enjoyed by Belgian iron shall be
extended to that of other countries.
The Duchess of LEUCRTZNBERQ arrived at Berlin
on the 2d.

The King of SAXONY is about to make a visit to
Italy, passing through Austria and Bohemia on his
way there. His MAJESTY, it is known, is a distin-
guished botanist, and his journey is to be entirely oc-
cupied in botanical researches.
We learn from Vienna that an imperial ordinance
has been published, fixing the 11th of August next
as the period when Venice shall be opened as a free
port.
