Nh. FRED. DrELNAS.--In the n. Y. Tri.
bune, of Saturday last, we find the following
notice Of picture by this gentleman, former.
ly Of New Windsor, his only contribution to
the Spring Exhibition at the Academy. We
have already taken occasion to speak of the
merits Of this artist, and are grati'fed to note
this evidence Of his fame:
There is no need TO wait, however. in Mr..
Dlelman's case. His little picture. called
NPatrician Lady-l6th Century, 10 by l6
inches in dimensions, is his only contribution
to the exhibition, and it argues well for some.
body's taste that it is already sold. It is a
single figure, nearly full length, painted with
all the minuteness Of detail and technical
skill which are now so attractive, but not
painted for them alone. On the contrary,
they fall into the proper subordination, as
soon as we look upon the calm, proud lowell.
ness Of the woman's face. The latter is the
light and glory of the picture. The artist,
moreover, shows rare reticence in the ex.
ercise Of his technical skill. A single feather
Of the peacock.fan, painted with exquisite
delicacy, is touched by the light; the others
gradually lose themselves in the shadow. In
this and other slight characteristics, the true
artist is revealed the master, not the slave,
Of form, color and teStural effect"

U. s. Marshal Fred Douglass ad L inis-

satisfaction in Washington. His appoint

does not meet with much favor from the
courts. Douglass probably remembers the
nepotism Of Grant.

The BALTIMORE MAYoRALTY.-The
municipal election takes place in October
Already the contest for the nomination
begins to wax warm. Seven gentlemen
are contestants for the prize. They are
the present Mayor, Gen, F. C. Latrobe,
Col. George P. Keene, the former Mayor
Robert 7. Banks, Charles G. Kerr, VIII
son G. N. Carr, Samuel Taggert, and Henry
NJ. War6eld The latter win be an indie
pendent candidate, if the Republicans
make no nomination. There will be no
chance for Independents, if Col. Keene
should be the nominee. He would sweep
the city against all competitors.

UNION MILLS ITEMS. Under date Of April
9th, our correspondent writes In my last
| stated that the scarlet fever was prevalent
in the vicinity Of Silver Run, up to that time
but one case Of the fever proved fatal; since
then, the 18th ultimo, there have been nine
deaths from the fever in that immediate 10.
cality, and at this writing there are several
critical cases. The family in which it proved
most destructive was that Of Mr. Samuel Kes.
selring, but little more than two weeks since
the youngest daughter of Mr.. kesselring was
taken sick in a few days she became SO very
i'll that her life was despaired of, her sister
Louisa, residing in Baltimore, and her broth
er Granville, residing in Virginia, were sum.
moned home, as was supposed, to see their
dying sister, but, by the will of a mysterious
Providence, their sister was spared, and isnow
fast regaining her former health and strength;
but they, in a few days after reaching home,
were stricken down by the fatal disease,
and in n few more days their spirits went
to that home from whence none returneth.
Nor were these all, about the same time that
these were taken sick, their sisters Annie and
Clementine, and their brother Eddie, who
lived at home, were Frustrated by the same
fatal disease, and died also. Thus within the
brief space of four days FIVE of the same fam.
lily departed this life. On the night of the
10th ult., two, Louisa and Eddie, died and
were inferred in the cemetery at Silver Run,
on Saturday following, in one grave. On
Saturday morning Clementine died and was
buried on Sunday, and before the bereaved
parents reached home their daughter Annie
expired. On Monday morning Granville
died, both were inhumed in one grave on
Tuesday. Thus in the prime of life, with all
the bloom of youth and health FIVE young
and interesting persons, beloved by all who
knew them, passed away. Two members of
the same family are yet ILL., both are said to
be improving
Three children of Jacob r. Lippy, of Silver
Run, died from the same disease within the
last week.
