• ROYAL ACADEMY.-Mr; FUSE Lt, the Professor
of Painting, commenced, his annual Ledures last
night. In this discourse, with great knowledge,
Sagacity, and philOsophic spirit, he 'pointed out the
essential causes of the progress of the Arts," and of
their decline: He strongly enforced and illustrated
the necessity of public patronage tor, the due en-
couragement of Genius; obserVing, that the oppor-
tunities which the customs and. rites of Antiquity
afforded, by:admitting the works of Art into re-
ligious temples and national edifices, gave scope to
talents,, and enabled them to reach the noblest
heights of excellence in the eXpression of beauty
and sUblimity..- In the great change of manners
which has taken place, he traced the cause of the
degeneracy of the Arts, as pciyate patronage has
superseded that public spirit and national enthu-
siasm, which kindled a congenial spirit and
enthusiasm in , men whom Nature had .gifted
with exalted powers, and led the way 'to
"works of grandeur and dignity--in every province of
genius; These observations lie exemplified by his,
torical fadS, and concluded a yery elegant; learned,
anti profound discourse, with .some stiiking and
well.cond"6.nsed aphorisms to aired the progress of
the Student. The President, on account of indis:.
;position, was unable to attend, but many of the
