FINE ARTS.
Chief of these, is the little improved
Chapel" with its stained windows, by Ber-
TIM, of Milan, and representing in the rich
est col0rs the lite aud history OF Dante. Yet
the Anazons of Professor Kiss, of Berlin,
are in higher walk of art, and according to
competaul critic in the Morning .Ncics,

Two groups ol wild horses, held by horse
men, stand opposite to these-the work Of
lloler, of Stuugurd, "Satun oyerthrowing

Mother surrounded 10y her sickley in
iants," both full Of spirit, but the latter some
what revolving. An "lshmael," by Signor
Strazze, Of Italy, is much admired. Pier

DECORATIVE ART.
Nothing in the exhibition demonstrates
greater progress in human industry, than the
various articles of use, which may be eul-

cy and richness that cannot bc imagined.-
The wide range of subjects embraced by
these tapestry needlemen is wonderful, ex-
tending from the classical forms and blue
heavens of Rnphae's frescoos, to the mod
crn fruit and flowery pieces of Dcsiontaine,
while they are at the same time miracles OF
texture.
