Mr. Lenox has been so chary Of hts COLLECTION
hithcrto-the purpose OF which now appears
that, beyond circle OF friends, his art-treas-
ures have been little known. and still less seen.
They prove to be the collection OF man OF
Judgment and taste aboTc the average Of CON
noisscurs, as we'll as 4 man given to strong
Ikings and inclinations. In the gallery Of
paintings there arc 140 canyases, il that
OF sculpture fifteen pieces OF statuary. The
artists rcprcsentcl arc Of the past generation
for the most part. There are two or three
works by Si- Joshua Reynolds, one Of them his
mucl,-almircd portrait Of tMiss Kitty Fisher,''
another representing sMrs- Ellington as st.
Cccilt.,' With choir of angels floating about
her head and making answering music to her
voicr. The paintings that will attract as much
notice perhaps as anv. are three Turner's: sFin-
gslrs Cayc.,s IAN English War-Sh1D Stranded
on the Frencl, Coast,'' and 1.-THE Old Tenn
cra;nc'' Wilkes original sketch of a part of
his ''Blind Mans Buff" is IN interesting souye-
mir. Among the American painters represented
are CcpIey, Church, Bierstadt, Eensett. Gil
bert Stuart. and Rembrandt Pcaie. the last of
whon, has several portraits OF Washington. The
statuary is inferior to the work in oil. The
niece. include Hiram Powers, ala Pcnseroso :,
