We remember, years ago, Of having
heard the following anecdots of H0garth,
and No deem that It will bear repeating
Tho celebrated artist was once applied to
by an exceedingly wealthy, but very pc
nurious, old no6leman, to paint the main
hall Of . new mansion with . historical
piece-s style Of embellishment much in
vogue among the aristocracy of the per-
iod. Hogarth was open TO the position,
and was asked what he would charge to
paint upon the walls of the hall Q repre-
sentation of the Passage of the Children
Of Israel across the Red Sea, pursued by
Pharaoh and his host. The painter
viewed the hall, and replied that he
would do it for one hundred guieas. The
misery old nabob turned up his nose in
amaxement at the enormous charge. He
would give twenty guiners for the work,
and that was more than he deemed it
worth. Hogarth, as may well be sup
posed, was both vexed and mortified by
this estimate Of the value of labor but
he nodded and held back his temper, and
finally said if the sum were paid to him
in advance, he would undertake the JOB.
The close-fisted nobleman consented to
this arrangement, and he could not re-
press q chuckle of inward satisfaction in
view of his grand bargain as he paid over
the money. Hogarth pocketed the twen-
ty gold pieces, and promised that he
would commence the work on the NOR
row. Bright and early on the following
morning the artist appeared at the man.
sion, accompanied by stout assistant
who bore huge bucket of red paint,
and at once they proceeded to daub the
walls of the hall, and The panels and the
doors, literally with the glaringpigment.
An hour before noon, just as the noble
man was getting up from his bed, Ho-
garth knocked at his door, announcing,
when the host appeared =
"Well, sir,-the work ID DONE"
"Done!" cried the astonished aristo-
craft "What is done 2"
"Why,-the painting of your hall"
Unable what to make of this marvel
GUS expedition, the old knight threw on
his dressing gown, went down 10 view
the artists labors, and his CONSERVATION
can be better imagined than described
upon bebolding the unbroken and unre-
lieved brick-red hue that covered walls
and cornice ana wainscot.
What, in the name OF wonder, is
this!" he cried, rubbing his eyes, and
gazing from the daub to the dauber.
"That sir" said Hogarth, with low
bow and serious lock, dis the Red Sea !"
"The, Red ?-But-but-wherc are
Pharaoh and his host?"
"Why, sir-they ARE all drowned"
replied Hogarth.
ell,-and where are the Children
of Israeli"
"They," said the painter, with an as
surfing nod share all crossed orer upon the
other side!"
The old niggard found it in vain to
and for producing the hosts of
Egypt and the Israelites, Hogarth finally
received his hundred guineas.
