ART NOTES .-Two admirable marines by
De Haas, the celebrated marine artist, are
now on exhibition at Hales. One of them
pictures the Isle of Shoals lighthouse. The
tower stands on its juttibg point of rock,
while smell boat rides upon the waves that
chafe against the restraining shore. The
theme is admirably handled, and its spirit so
faithfully caught that The spectator can scarce
ly persuade himself that sea and boat are not
in motion. The other is twilight scene, a
large vessel looming up in the foreground
through the gathering dusk, while in the dis
lance other sails are dimly seen. The per-
spective in this picture is managed wonderful
ly well, while the color of the sea is fairly lu-
minous. The two pictures are noticeable for
the careful distinction which the artist has
made in painting deep sea and shoal water.

following business was transacted: Soon after
the Boards were called they went into
| JOINT CONVENTION
! to consider the passage of bill to be sent to
the Legislature for action, amending Sec 6.
ebay. g. K s., so as to exempt the pipes of the
Water Company from Taxation. The Mayor
stated the objects of the bill and called upon
Hon. George P Wescott, President Of the
Water Company, for further particulars. Mr.
Wescott stated that the Company was willing
to pay taxes on their other property, but it was
thought that as they gave water free for the
| purpose of extinguishing fires, they should be
exempted on their pipes He stated that the
| Company had expended 100000 the present
year in laying new pipes ana they were not in
condition to make further anticipated repairs if
the taxes as assessed were pa d.
The Mayor did not consider the Company
had any good claim to this benefit and did not
| thought the Company had many valuable ad-
vantages granted from the city.
The convention accordingly adjourned with
out action.

The Mayor stated that the Water Company
did not wish to press anything against the
wishes of the city, and if the Board would not
take any action to prevent the pass age of the
