PANORAMA OF NAPLES.
Mr. Burford has just brought out a grand WO(
ramie view by moonlight of the City and Bag of
Naples. The beauty of the bay, with its nutugs",
islands, and the grandeur of Vesuvius during an e
tion, are well known, and in this new work are lon
fully and strikingly represented. The view i 8

two semicircular curves which form the bay is Ina
manded throughout by the eye of the spectator, in,
every object of interest or importance is tlkerinnd
On the left hand is the long line of the Moll the,

The richness of the city to the west, anci-Ait

background of hills are also seen. On the rig
are the Houses of Charity, the Royal Palace of
di Monte, and the Castle Nuovo, the mole, and lie',
house, &c. During the eruption the Royal Palau"
was considered in imminent danger, and his Neap!'
litan Majesty withdrew to a safer abode. The cele-
brated isle of Capri, the infamous retreat of thll
Roman tyrant, is seen in the distance of the Pietu;
Virgil's tomb is also introduced; and, in '
nothing seems to have escaped the eye uf,t,,benlirf the

The general appearance is very imposing; there, h in

this as one of the finest of all Mr. Burford's na,rnii,,
