THE FINE ARTs.-We notice i'm Markriter's
window, 4S6 Seventh street, new picture, by
Charles Lapman, "Cypress Swamp Georgia.
which is likely to attract considerable alton
ton 1t is one of the most effective pictures
we have seen from the pencil of this artist
The Cypress family is admirably treated, in
trunk and foliage the cool depths Of the water
paved forestrecesses are evidently studies from
nature; and the brilliant touch of blue sky aud
sunlight in the corner serving to relieve the
al penSeToso tone of the body of the picture is
the conception of a true artist
The swamp deniZens-the crane, terrapin,
snake DC, DC, figure on the canvass, but not
too obsfrusially.
Amateurs and purchasers should call at
Markriters and see the .Eypress Swamp"
THE WILL OF THE LATE THOMAS CARBRRY
The contest Of the viii Of thelate Thos. Carbery
Is TO be amicably adjusted, five commissioners
being now engaged in making valuation of the
property, and dividing it in distributiye shares,
10 be apportioned among the heirs at law and
the benevolent institutions to which he designed
TO bequeath certain sums. The terms of the
will in regard to St. Vineent's Orphan ASYLUM
are considered rather ambiguous and difficult
of execution, and in the adjustment now sought
to be made that institution, it is understood,
will receive an actual donation of $4,000. The
principal heirs are Mrs. DIR. Richie, of George
town. and other nieces and nephews. The
estate is valued at between 800, 900 and $780, OGU
mostly in city property.
