DEATH ON THE PALE HORSE,

Representing the opening of the first five Seals : the effect
proposed to be excited by this Picture is the terribly sub-
lime, and its various modifications, until lost in the oppo-
site extremes of pity and horrer,—a sentiment which
Painting had not, until then, attempted successfully to
awaken. This is indeed a chef d'couvre ; and the same
panegyric might be safely pronounced on the remaining
150 Pictures. The space allotted for this purpose
however, insufficient, and this imperfect description will
end by intreating especial attention to the following :
Expulsion of Adam and Eve The Overthrow of the Old
The Deluge Beast and False Prophet
Abraham and Isaac Telemachus and Mentor on
The Resurrection the Island
Peter and John Cicero discovering the Tomb

The Three Marys
The &nen Serpent
Saul Prophesying-

St. Paul shaking the Viper
Christ healing the Infirm

of Archimedes
Death of Wolfe
Mark Anthony showing the

Itube and NiTill of Cooar.

Thus has Mr. 'West left for the admiration of the pre-
sent.and succeeding generations,
A SUBLIME SERIES OF PICTURES,
From Sacred and Profane History, Poetry, and ori-
ginal fancy, including the greater portion of the labour of
his long and meritorious life, as

THE ONLY LEGACY FOR HIS CHILDREN.
In America, the exhihition of ONE of Mr. West's Pic-
tures,—The Healing of the Infirm in the Temple,—(which
be presented to the Hospital of Philadelphia gratuitously),
prochaeed a awn sufficient to perpetuate the maintenance of
twenty-five Pensioners, insides 1,800 guineas to build
a roan to receive it. To conclude, Sir Thomas Law-
rence, at the distribution of Prizes to the Students of
the Royal Academy, eulogized the late venerable Pre-
sident thus :—" His works were not only superior to
any former productions of English art, but far surpass-
ing contemporary merit on the Continent—were un-
quailed at any period below tho School of the Ca-
raoci—aarl he gained oelekity at the close of his life, far
greater than he had ever before enjoyed, because (almost to
forgetfulness of deceased greatness) the only popular painter
of his country.
