A Vermont Artist.

Hon. Charles Barrett of Grafton is prob
ably one of the finest artists in Vermont,
exhibiting especially rare skill in crayon
portraits. One which he has recently com
pleted of the lamented Mrs. r. $. Taft of
this city, says the Burlington Free Press, is
remarkable for its finish and the manner in
which the expression and lfe-like features
have been preserved. The natural express
sion of the face has been caught as if by
magic by the artist. Mr.. Barrett spends
his summers at his home, in Grafton, but
during the remainder of the year has a
studio in Boston. We are glad to learn that
the Chittenden county bar propose to give
Mr.. Barrett an order for the portrait of
Chief Justice Pierpoint, 10 be hung in the
new court house.
