ONE of the least hattering tributes
ever paid to rising young artist, has
been paid to Cincinnati dauber by a
Western critic: "He possesses some
merit as an artist, but it is hard to say
whether it lies in landscape or marine
pa'ntlng-you cannot tell his cows
from his ships, except when they have
their tails exalted. when the absence of
spars betrays their characters. Even
then they may be mistaken for schoon-
ers scudding under bare poles!"

ing want of our life in this country. We allow
ourselves fewer festivals, fewer intervals of rest,
fewer seasons of pure and simple enjoyment
than any people OF the earth. lu more than
half of Europe religious festivals alone give
the people thrice and four times as many ho-
DAYS as we have, and 10 the Protestant States
of Europe their place is taken by stated public
holidays, and supplemented besides by the Gus
tom, universally observed, Of vacations enjoyed
by men of every business or profession. In
England, for example the scholastic vacation
Is copied by the lawyers vacation and the pub
lie officers vacation. 1t would be bold man
who should Claim that We do more good etfec-
tive work, or accomplish more in a year or a
lifetime than the English people, yet our year,
nay, too often our lifetime, is one long labour
uureeved except by Sundays, and perhaps by
some three days Of stated holiday per annum,
while in Eugland the very hardest worked law
yer, merchant, politician, or public officer,

Rouss, Bell & Co., auctoneers, of this city,
Brooklyn and New Jersey. On he following
Monday Weir disappeared, and his stock was
sold out by the sheriff. Shortly afterwards it
WAS discovered that Weir, although without
capital, had tradulentiy obtained from severa!
merchants III the city goods valued at between
so COO and so OC0, and that Weir ard L uss,
of Rouss, Bell i Co, were old friends, and that
Weirs job to obtain goods by false pretenscs
had been suggested and operated by Kouss.
Weir WAS subsequently arrested in Philadelphia
under the name of john Elliott, and on being
brought to this city, ADMITTED his guilt, stated
that he had given Rouss fraudulent confessed
Judgments, and that the greater portion of the
goods obta ned were sold by kou$s, whose
