Professor CornIng's Lectures.

Professor j. Leonard Corning last evening
delivered the concluding lecture Of his course
on art before a very large and Interested
audience. The professor took occasion to cx-
tend his thanks for the generous patronage he
had received, aud paid high compliment In
stating that it had beon the most generous
accorded him this season. The subject chosen
last evening was The Lost Masterpieces Of
the Ages" Tho lecturer said that IN attempt
ing n pictorial representation of the lost mas.
terpioccs mere skeletons Of art IN sculpture
remained whereby to obtain tho copies. The
burial from human sight Of these treasures
was due to many causes, among them natural
decay, earthquakes aud warfare, Their re-.
yivai as ii were from the dim past has been
by means of minute descriptions Of ancient
authors and occasional copies in statu.
ette forms finished prior to their de.
struction by subsequent artists of less
ronown, and found at diilorent periods
among the many excavations that have been
made. Painting has suffered the most by tho
corrosion OF time while fro aud shipwreck
have played a prominent part in their destruc'
tiOn. In 1860 only six antique statues In
Rome worthy of mention arc recorded, but the
excavations by Leo Y. brought 10 light many
of tho lost treasures. The nineteenth century
has been the most prolific In the way of exca-
vaiions. Among the lost masterpieces Of the
ages stand prominently tho temple of Diana
at Ephesus, tho temples at Cyprus, palace oi
Carna, the grand architectural ruins at Alex-
andria and tomplo of Seraps. Tho lecturer
concluded by exhibiting several Of the works
of Phidias, among them the ivory statue OF
Minerva and the colossal statue Of Jupiter
Olympus. Lost works of Raphael MurilIo
aud cotemporary artists were mentioned, and
their genius lauded In proportion to then
merits. Professor Corning will doliyer lee
trIe at the Congregational church next Friday

81. Patrick's Day will not bo celebrated here
this year with n grand parale of Irish socie-
ties, as in the past, but three societies having

tho knights of ST. Bernard. 1t is expected
that at least 800 men will be in line. Tho

Georgetown, return over M.strect bridge TO
Twenty-fourth street, to X, TO Fifteenth, TO

The reason for such comparatively small
tnrn'out to-day is in tho fact that iow weeks
ago, when the usual convention to arrange the
pieliminaries for "A Sc. PatriCks Day parade
was held, proposition was made that, instead
OF having parade the money required for u
demonstration should bo appropriated for the
relief Of the poor in Ireland. This was agreed
to, though there woro many dissentcrs, and
subsequently delegates from several societies
met and decided to have u parade anyway. To
the credit of the societies who participated in
the parade, it must be stated that they have
contributed literally to the Irish relief fund.
In addition to tho matinee to be given ut
