kT George w. Kendall, one of the
editors Of the New Orleans Picaynne,
having passed a week in our city since
his return from Europe, where he remain
ed some two years or more, has set out
on his way to New Orleans. He will
return in the course of . month, and then
will probably issue the great work. to
get up which with perfection wal his
principal object in going abroad. This
is q series Of twelve magnificent ltho-
graphic plates. executed in Paris, from
drawings made on the spot by Nabel,and
colored in the most natural style, illus
traling the twelve principal incidents in
the late Mexican war. They are done
in the highest style Of the pictorial art,
and resemble best water color paintings.
The lctter-press (also executed in Paris)
y exquisitely beautiful. and appears to
De faithfully and cleverly written. Mr..
kendalrs opportunities of knowing The
ruth in connection with the incidents of
the brilliant campaigns were abundant,
and of these he has made the best use.
The work we allude to is so arranged az
TO permit it 10 be bound into a magni6-
cent folio volume, or TO be kept in a port
folio, or 10 be framed. 1t cannot fail to
be a very popular work, national as i.
is in character, and executed as it is in a
style highly creditable to the patriotic i'm
pulses Of its designer and author. The
cost Of the work, when ready for pub
LEGATION, will probably be somei thing like
thirty dollars.-N. 4. Express, June II.
