something Of the kind; but, whatevor he was
whistling there he was and no humbug about nm.
Your correspondent in his letter dated May 1,
fnrinted in vour issue for May AZ relative 70 the
placing of Rothermeps Battle Of Gettysburg" In
the Art Building, proves unfortunately to have been
correct in his information. The picture is hung at
III. end OF the main room devoted to American PIE
lures and being 50 feet long it exactly fills the END
of the room. A portrait of Gen. Thomas hangs
at the other end so that the hope that tho Exhlbi-
ton was to contain nothing relating to the war is
dream rudely broken. 1t is well to record how
ever, that many well-known and important citizens
of Philadelphia were opposed to the admssionef
the Rothermel picture. and that the New-York Com
mittee of Artists, MessrS. Smile and Whittredge,
opposed il strenuously. All they could accomplish
however was TO prevent the great bloody daub from
being hung extensively where it would face the Wis
itor on entering, rs Mr.. Sartan was determined 1t
should hang. This however is but little gain. The
picture in so also is the portrait OF Gen. Thomas
which came in Of course when the Rothermel was
admitted, it having at first been itself refused. No
member Of the Commission has, so far as Know,
any pecuniary interest in the portrait nor is about
to publish an engraving OF 1T. l do not know
whether Mr. Sartain is to open books of subscription
for his engraving in front of the picture or
whether il is TO be advertised in more original
way But it is admitted here that Mr.. Sartain
made his fight and won it, spurred by the
hope that the exhibition of the picture will be the
occasion of his selling great many copies OF his
engraving. / will, however, give him the plague
for his dowry. No engraving whatever of any scene
or person connected with thoBarof the Rebellion has
ever had prosperous sale. Many such have
been engraved, and few of them were painted by
men far cleverer than Mr.. Rothermel. But they
have, one and all, been mercantile failures. And so
will it be with Mr.. Sartain's venture, far as the
public is concerned. He and his friends may, in
deed buy mp an edition Of the plates for distribution
as Sunday-scbool prizes public school diplomas;
or they may be caught up by agents of life insurance
companies or the sellers OF anti-nausea pills. pills
good against diseases of the palette or for painters
collie to print their advertisements but no one
will buy the engraving to look at 1t. And Dir.
Rothermel and Mr.. Sartain and the rest of the
Committee will find they have insulted their South
ern citizens and turned the stomachs OF the
Northerners all for nothing. 1t will neither put
dollar into their treasury dollar into their
private pockets. c. c.
