Mary $. Riley, Of Louisville.
KY, makes one ofrhe most inter
esting and wonderful exhibits In
the eutire collection. It consists of
admirable portraitsof individuals.
taken either by embroidering in
silk or by working in worsfed.
Notwithstanding the apparently
insuperable difficulties in this
process in the way of securing
delicate shading With such cum
brous and unmanagebIe materials.
the artist has succeeded in several
Instances in producing work in
black and white which, at u little
distance, can not be d stinguished
from etching. The work iii differ
ent colors is wonderful, but il no.
thing to compare in fidelity and
sharpness OF outline with the
work in black and white. By means
OF simply stitching black and
white silk on white ground, the
artist has succeedingin producing
admirable portraits of Hon. w.
Il. Gladstone and John Bright
and of james Bridgeford. Of
Louisville, Ky. She has wrounLt
in worsted pictures of Queen Vic.
toria, Prince Albert, the Prince
and Princess OF Wales, and the
Princess Royal of England, now
Crown Princess OF Germany. .Rut
the most ambitious and the most
interesting piece in the collection
is a picture in wOrsted work repre
senting the "Battle of Langside
OF the Death Of Douglas in the
Defense of Mary Queen of Scots.n
LII the foreground is Douglas w.

bonghs Of u large oak, aud n the
distance may be seen tbs smoke
OF battle. The success which tia
artist has achieved in hleudinr
colors and in shading is really
wonderful. The deep green FOLIAGE
OF the trees, the rich velvet ana
sIlken garments OF the knights
and ladies, the bright trappfnps
Of the horses even the deathlv
