4 Woman Living with a Bullet in Her

Mas Frances NJ. Dayton, the young
lady who, it will be remembered, was
shot by VIM. 81. Russ, on the 22d Of De-
cember last, in Clinton street, Brooklyn,
has 20 far recovered as to be able TO be
removed to her home in Connecticut
Miss Dayton received three shots in the
head-one just behind the ear, which
passed backward between the two plates
Of the skull, and did not penetrate the
brain; the second, near the right parietal
bone, which has been mostly removed by
fragments at the top Of the head the
third entered the back Of the head, near
the middle, and, passing forward and
downward, lodged in the brain, from
which it has not been removed A total
paralysis of the nerves of motion in the
upper and lower exlremities Of the left
side Immediately ensued. There has
been at no time the least suspension Of
consciousness or Of any mental faculty;
neither have the nerves of special sense
been affected otherwise than by a slight
and very natural increase of sensibilty
at the first Her courage, hope, cheer
fitness, and even gayety have been I'M
intermitted At the present time her
wounds are nearly closed, The paralysis
Of the lower extremity entirely removed,
and the arm is gradually gaining the
power Of motion. The strongest hopes
Of her complete restoration to health are
entertained By her friends.

Stage REPRESENTATION Of the Loss Of a
Steamer.


Some London theatres are making cap
ital ont Of the loss Of the steamer Lon
don. on which occasion the celebrated
tragedian, G. v Brooke, then en- route
for australia, met his end. The ter
rible catastrophe is represented with
every fidelity Of detail on the stage. The
Surrey theatre brings Brooke himself on
the boards, and makes him hold touch
ing soliloquy upon his unavoidable fate.
Il sounds almost incredible that the widow
Of the deceased artist should have taken
a part in the performance of this sensa-
ton piece, but this is positively true.
She is al American, and well known by
her u alden name Of Avonia Jones on
this side Of the Atlantic. The Britain
MIA theatre, at Hoxton, jealous Of the
success Of It's rival Of the Surrey, tried
70 Guido the other by making the loss OF
the London still more true to nature, and
for this object engaged the sailors saved
from the wreck TO take part in the repre-.
sentation. This expedient draws vast
crowds 10 the doors, and the theatre can
hardly bold the nightly audiences The
mesits Of these heroes are Of course very
Questionable, for their escape is due TO
their having seized the only sea-worthy
boat and left the rest TO perish. This
seems, however, 70 make them no less
welcome 70 public curiosity.

No. 64s. PETER FRoTHERMILL PREACHING AT
ATHENS. By Saint Paul, P. A.-The figures
composing this audience are evidently old
Greeks, having once been dead and embalmed
in Asphaltum, and have never had it completely
washed off previous to setting to Paul for their
portraits. The painting and glazing of this pic
ture is very good and very expensive. The
Burnt Sienna, Asphaltum and Lake used on thiS
picture, according to Mr.. Kauze's bill, who fur
nished the articles, we're very expensive, and
were used in unstinted quantities. The picture
has other merits a1so worth mentioning; one is
that it is not "or sale,n and we believe also It is
the only one of the kind out We might add
the beautiful stroke of nature portrayed in the
audience, each one anxious to get away home,
SO noted in sermon audiences of the present
day. In size The picture is also great.

''THE CAMEL SHIP OvERTAKEN BY A STORM
BY G. G. Rosebug.-The artist of this pic
ture is trying to throw dust in the publics eyes,
particularly that part OF the public represented
in his picture, and the probability is that he
has never been to sea anything like that. If it
was not for the lashing of the waves in the fore
ground we should think it was intended for a
storm in the desert. This latter opinion is also
borne out by some Camels foundering about in
the foam.

No. $50. PORTRAIT. By G. W. marrow, P. A.
We have not thought it necessary to give the
figure, as ii IS merely the background of the
palette. This is very well drawn sho wing much
acquaintance with the subject, which SO many
artists find so difficult to hdnde-rich in color,
great depth of tone, and broad in effect; in fact,
too broad, we think, for its length, actual mea.

breadth of 16t inches; but apart from this, it
is a good likeness.

Ellwalker.-The place for the stovepipe hole is

but still the picture is very good for the purpose
intended. The rope from the ships bowsprit
looks at first sight too much like streak of
lightning to suggest any useful purpose; but we
do not like to be captlous, and would on the
hole recommend the Board.

he ran four Rebels through every morning be-
fore breakfast the young lady seems to have
her doubts, and examines the sword for the
traces of blood, but "don'C see it," which she
will DO doubt tell him, in the next picture by
this same artist, as he is running series of
these pictures, intended primarily as designs for
covers in colors for the American News Com

productions.

we're too young to set-even for their portraits
yet the artist has served them up equal to Price,

No. go. SCENE ON THE THAMES. By Jay
Hamill Ton, P. A.-The large red knob in the
foreground of this picture would make it more
expressive to say "a Knob Scene view on the
Thames" or any other river that was popular
at the time--we would suggest the Schuylkill.
AS good deal of the picture has been rubbed
out, or rubbed in, we would not give it any rubs
here, but believe it to be good.
