BROOKLYN ART NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. LAST NIGHT.

The spring reception Of this association took place
last night at the Academy Of Music, and was bril-
liant affair. The attendance was very large. AS
for the exhibition OF pictures, it may be said
that it was an Improvement upon the
one in the fall; that is not saying q great
deal, but in the interest Of art it il here
set down. There were many pictures on the walls
that the artists II such they can be styled, could
much more appropriately have hid under bushel.
they had delicacy enough for that there would be
much more hope for them than there now is. Only
think once If some of the cattle there had the breath
OF life breathed into them. Their attempts at walk
ing would be more ludlcrous than Gipns ride The
rocks that stood upon some OF those ragged sea
shores, what would . sailor find to dread In thems

Trees there were which hurricane ~ Will not be
said could not uproOt, but could not much stir

about The artist that can paint an OK or scythe,
to say nothing OF representing man using one OF
these Implements, has yet to be found. There were
some good pictures to De seen of course, but the
number was small. The better known artists were
generally represented by tribes or by more preten
tous pictures not to their usual standard Kensett

OBITUARY.
Solomon Meredith.


We learn from the Cincinnati papers OF the death
OF this gentleman few days ago at Cambridge City,
Ind. The deceased was o native Of North Carolina,
but moved to Indiana while quite young man.
He took active part In the politics OF the State
and to his energy was due the organization OF the
Agricultural Society OF Indiana When the rebellion
broke out he raised regiment Of volunteers which
he led to the field, and during the war served with
distinction. Soon after the battle Of Antietam
Major General Hooker earnestly recommended
him for promotion as gallant, able
Brigadier General Of Volunteers, and
In that position served until after the surrender OF
Lees army, when he was honorably mustered out
OF the service at his own request sickness and
wounds being the OF his leaving the service.
Subsequently he ran against Hon. George w. Julian
for Congress and defeated. Discovering that his
defeat was due in great measure to statements
made during the canvass Affecting his character and
loyalty, and meeting Mr., Juinn IN the ladies' room
OF the depot at Richmond, Ind, he knocked down
that gentleman and cowhlded him until the by
ISLANDERS interfered. few days later he published
lengthy article defending his course and alleging
gross provocatlon. A little over one year ago Gene
raj Meredith obtained position under the govern
ment at the South, and was there performing the
duties OF his ofilce until Illness compelled his re-
turn to his home IN Indiana
