tiful miniatures by Geo. Liner The cabinet por-
traits By this artist are perfect gems; not only as re-
CARDS the painting, but also the likeness. They are
superior to any thing of the kind have seem
either in this country or in Europe. Among them
we recognise the Miss Phelps Mr.. McEvers, Mr..
Kyle and several others.

pleasing tone Of color, which IS very agreeable The
hand IL without an equal IN the Academy.
