EXHIBITION OF PAINrINGs.-It is like meeting
with oasis in the midst of sandy desert to meet
with good collection of paintings in the midst
of the trash that is daily exhibited in different parts
the city, particularly at Clarks gallery. There is
however, very excellent collection to be seen
at the granite buildings corner of Broadway and
Chambers street, the entrance to which is in Cham
| bers street.
This collection contains some very excellent pic
lures, and some very Indifferent ones. Amongst
others, we have examined the following:
| No. 230-Finding of Moses-A most miserable
daub, although said to be by Mompert and Brughlc
| The dress is bad, and the water much ike the
Nile, as Niagara is like the Passaic Falls.
IS0-The Favorite Bird; a good picture, both in
drawing and coloring.
1876 to 204-A of 10 excellent sketches. The
effect of few touches, and the breadth of coloring
in these sketches astonishing.
4-Triumph of Amphitrte. Perfect trash; said
to be by Rubens.
3l-A very good pictare as regards coloring, al
though some parts of the drawing Indifferent.
PA very fine head; said to be by Rubens, but it
is too modern for that master.
2l9-Ecce Homo; said to be by Civoli Ludivico.
This belonged to old Pa, and $1,000 refused
for it. The drawing is very bad, and the coloriRg
sombre, and like any thing but flesh 1t is in good
preservation.
2i-vew in Rome. Cost S225 very good pic
ture by Panini.

of Del Sarto is attached to it.

coloring are both excellent
S5-very well drawn; parts Of il rather cold,
but the whole it has good tone.
l23-A most mastery sketch.
ia very fine picture; the composition is exceed
ingly rich.
2l2-A most contemplate daub. The water is
like marbc the buildings like boards; the figures
very much out Of drawing; and the whole picture
stiff, and deficient in tone.
The color is excellent, and the drawing unexcep-
tionable.
Z-An Indifferent painting; the feet and legs
horribly out Of draS ing, and the head of the miner
| figure is a daub OF red ochre. This picture,
which occupies conspicuous place, is not worth
| So.
| aO9-A mastery painting and was once owned by
Paf There few better pieces in the room.
143-Too sombre and dark, and too many straight
| lines; the arrangement Of the figures is very bad.

much magilp used, that like Inman's paintings, il
has turned mass Of yellowish brown.
| lisa Goat-an excellent piece Of painting.
| T-Very fine. Worthy OF close Inspection
2l0-Cost $50, and is superior to every other CO.
py Of ST. John, although far beneath the original.

l56-The light is managed most admirably, and
this is a very excellent picture.
2O6-Said to be by Carlo Maratti be that as it
may, this painting is very fine one.
| 2l6-The masses Of color in this, managed by
| no tyro; the effect is beautiful.
256-'rhis is a miserable affair, and not rightly
named. The figures badly drawn, the subject
badly chosen, and badly managed and the coloring
throughout is most unnatural.

| I6D-A very beautiful piece Of painting.

drawing, and the coloring is most unnatural.

Of effect that is difficult for any but master to
achieve.
