GREAT DISCOVERY IN THE ARTs.--The fol- lowing particulars of s remarkable discovery nro given by the correspondent of the National Jntelli. gencer: if.1tf
 Considerable sensation has been produced among our engravers by the news of discovery, which is not only likely to effect their interest to great ex- tent but which, if generally made known, must lead To consequences affecting the paper currency of the civilized world, the importance of which il is hardly possible to exaggra,e. l am indebted to MT Chap man. the well known artist, for an account of the in- vention, and specimen of plate produced through it's agency. ...
 The discovery consists in a process by which an elaborate line engraving of any size may be ac curately copied that there shall be no perceptbe difference between the original and the copy; by which an engraving steel or copper may be pro- duced from an impression of the print-the original plate never having been by the copIst-and the copied engraving being capable of yielding from ten thousand to twenty thousand impressions. The pro- ducer will undertake 10 supply Bank of England note SO exactly copied that the person who signed and issued it should not be able to swear which was the original and which the copy ,atJ l.fyG
 From the specimen in my possession obtained by this process, and which is copied from proof en- craving of the head of the Saviour, from the burln of Nj. Blanchard, from the painting of Dearoche, l should infer that these claims the part of the dis coyerer could be fully substantated The delI- cate touches transferred with perfect fidelity, and hs after upwards of four thousand impressions from the duplicate plate had been taken. The London publisher of the engraving submitted one of these copies, together with proof of the original plate. to several artists, painters, and engrayers; and the opinion al which they arrived was, that although it was not dicut to distinguish the originvl from the copy, they were so thoroughly alike that any person of practiced eye might suppose the two to be from l the same plate the one being merely taken with greater care than the other; they were precisely the same, ne for line, and touch for touch; aud this ex- ample completely established the principle. They considered the invention ts moot wonderful and the
 most unacconn'able that had been made in modern times in connexion with art. la 9i 'sH
 Many guesscs have been made as to the mode by which this marvellous process is effected but yet withour result. The process does not even infer necessity of inuring the print delivered as a model, which is returned unscathsd. The inventor is an Englishman, and an engraver by profession. He
