OF • THE SOCIETY OF BRITISH AR-
TISTS,

Although this
.Exhibition has now been for'Some
time open to the public, we do not think it at all toe We to give,
our remarks upon its merits and demerits. Indeed were ra..

tiler eigpaged to delay doing, so, in order to form our' opinion more
at leisure, and that we might not be accused of prepossessing the
p 704 et the public either for or against any of the works of
Art here displayed. At the first opening of this Gallery for the
" lie,,ent' season, stre.3viie sorry to observe some of our contempo-
rsries expressing themselves in term; of indiscriminate, anti, as we
think, very unjust, censure and Tirliculer on the subject. We
have several times visited this Institution and paid'sonie attention
" to ftrmii►g our host and most, unbiassed judgment on the works
ef• Geniu* which it presents : and we do not scruple to say we
'think it a .eollietion highly creditable,, as a whole; to dug talents
of the Society of British Artists. We shall proceed to mention,
, in particular; those productions which have struck us most forcibly,
• whether for their excellencies or defects.

This exhibition iy enriched w: th many admirable landscapes
by Glover, those which struck us most are No. 267, The
Maud of Bac, With Arran in the distance, in which the effect
of- he flutes rays through the clouds, is perfectly magical, and No.
• 321., pert of the same island is exhibited with an inimitable effect
. of snr.act.

No. 11.—A very unpretending small landscape, is nevertheless
nue of much greater merit than some of its more obtrUsive neigh-
- bonro ;--" Landscape with a water-mill, by J. A. Puller."
No. 18.—The dedication, by Ilitcber, has become deservedly
'4.• popular by its powerful humour. The extacy of the pact at hav-
ing hit the happy idea for his dedication, and such a dedication,
,for it may be read at full length) is quite admirable.

No. 6.—lndustry--4;hews that Mr. H. H. Short() has not only
industry, but also promising talent.
No. 22.—Russlyn Castle we ought to have named when speak-

ing of Clover. The trampareney of the water would be admirable,

if the artist had been at the Mechanics' Institute, to learn optics;
' the boy's legs, in the water, appear as straight as if there were no
such thing as refraction ; this somewhat spoils the illusion.
No. 29.—The contentk.4l Cobler, by A. Fraser—We are well
contented, but we do not see why the cobler is called so. .1
Wood's Portrait of a Lady, No. 37, has much life in it; and.
Ciater's "Patient," No. 89, much humour, gout, and impatience:
No. a, " The Thief," by Pidding, should rather be called
the miseries of thieving, or attempting to steal what you, first
• cannot reach. EVery muscle of the unfortunate terrier is strained
to the utmost, in the vain attempt to reach a piece of meat, which

is too far on the table.
No. 47, called " Let me go," (T. Ginter), is a damsel not
over anxious that her command should be obeyed. She is meant
for a milk-maid, but has all the air and attitude of a fine lady ;
No. 48, on the other hand, is meant for a young buly, but has
quite the air of a milk-maid.

No, '7B is a very good river scene, by moonlight, not a little
itt.the", stile of Vanderneer, by E. Williams; and the next (79),
is a capital landscape, without any nonsense or pretence, by
