The KEARsARGE AND THE ALABAMA. -
Hale placed in his window yesterday an orig
inal sketch of the famous fight between the
Kearsarge and the Alabama, painted by w.
K Norton Of Boston, to the order and under
the instruction of Leut. L. E. Preble, U. S. N
who was at that time, the navigating officer of
the loyal vessel. 1t was dull, leaden day
when the combat occurred, with a smooth sea,
unrippled by "a breath of air, and broken only
by a slight ground swell. The lines and rig of
the Kearsarse are finely preserved, while only
the Erow aud fine rigging of the Alabama
stand out from the dense cloud of smoke that
encompass the vessel. The artist has seized
upon the moment when shell from the Kear-
sarge has exploded in the coal-bpbker of the
rebel craft, sending up cloud OF dense black
smoke, relieved and lifted by the explosion of
her broadsde guns. The Kearsaree at the mo-
ment is opening her forward battery, and the
lurid flame, surmounted by the peculiar effect
Of the horizon showing through the smoke
cloud, produces an effect that will be readily
appreciated by one who has had the good-or
bad-fortupe to have seen a naval engagement.
The artist has done the work too the COM
plete acceptance OF his patron, and no doubt
connoisseurs will study the picture with pleas
ure.
