Permit ME 10 call the attention Of your rea
ders to the g Illuminated Chemical Dioramas," J"
which Mr.. r. Winter is now exhibiting in your
city, For myself, | can say, that never
have witnessed an exhibition which SO com
pletely awakened my interest and admiration.

Judges near me pronounced excellent, the re-
moval Of the curtain disclosed, what seemed
to be street in Milan, on one side OF which
was the merchants sarcade with their booths in
front; on the other, the caffe's, &c. and d.
rectly in front, at an apparent distance OF about
thirty or forty rods, the magnificent Cathedral,
on which the rays ofthe descending sun seem
sd TO fall; gradually however, the clouds
around it seemed to assume the changing hues
Of an Italian sunset !; twilight followed Then
the spires Of the Cathedral were llumined, as
by the moon which seemed to rise higher and

splendor from behind the arcade then came
the lighting up Of the. different buildings; the
Cafes, the Arcade, and the Cathedral for the
performance Of its midnight services and as
the lights fell upon the streets, they revealed
the forms (ill then invisible) Of the passers by,
while dimly through the open doors Of the
Cathedral were seen. the kneeling worshippers
All at once my ears were greeted by the sound
Of distant music; sounds so sweet, so solemn,
SO devotional, that although protestant, |
could not forbear the exclamation, "Were /
a Milanese, should be Nun" But the mu-
sic ceased, the voices died away, the lights
were extinguished, and the deserted streets
seemed hushed and tranquil as the moon to
which they owed their quiet beauty. Grad
ually its mild and chastened lustre gave place
10 the darkness which precedes days dawning,
and as gradually and naturally did the clouds
pass through the many changes of sunrise.
But the curtain fell, and the EXPLANATIONS
of delight from the audience reminded me that
was not in Milan, but Carusi's Saloon, and
that the beautiful illusions had witnessed.

at this Bar Col. Drayton has been so long
absent from the State, and in such complete
seclusion from public affairs, that he seems
rather like the shade Of one long dead, than
contemporary. He was high specimen, not

Of persons in speeding it on, especially that Of
