CIVIL DRAWINGS.

Tho exhibition of drawings by the gentlemen cadets was
exceedingly pleasing, and certainly an improvement upon
those of former years. Indeed, some of the works wore of
great beauty, and full of artistic feeling. There has also
been a considerable advance in the photogi aphic depart-
ment. Amongst the portraits exhibited were Sir W. I'.
Williams of Kars, and his aide-de-camp, Col. Teesdale;
also Major-General Sir F. Smith, K.H., and several of the
professors, besides views of the front and back of the man
sion, and two beautiful specimens of the out-going term,
containing the likenesses of 37 of the gentlemen cadets in
each picture. There were also several separate portraits
of the cadets, the printing of which has more the appear-
ance of mezzotint engraving than photography.
First Prize—Mr. Sotheby. An artistic sketch in pencil
and tinting of Windermere Lake, and a highly-finished
landscape in water-colours.
Second Prize—Mr. Butter. Two exquisitely finished
pictures from "Macbeth."
Third Prize—Mr. Jopp. A highly-finished figure draw-
ing. The landscapes by the Messrs. Padday, Dowden,
Girardot, Jas. Coningham, &c., were much admired, as
also were two figure subjects by the Messrs. H. Shaw and
0. St. John.

This department, which is under the direction of Pro-
fessor Petley, excited the warmest admiration, and the dis-
play of pictures was considered to b 3 very superior to that
of any former occasion.
After the business of the day had been disposed of, the
chairman, deputy chairman, and visitors proceeded to the
mansion of Col. Abbot, where a splendid collation was pro-
vided, which having been disposed of, the company broke
up at 5 o'clock, most of them returning to town by train.

years with asthma ; several physicians pronounced his
case hopeless, and being a private in the Royal Marines,
he received his discharge, and returned to his native
place. The difficulty in breathing, and that choking sen-
sation, so peculiar to the complaint, compelled him to
rest by night in an easy chair; when every hope, and
every remedy had failed, by the aid of this inestimable
medicine he was restored to perfect health. Sold by all
