the practice of any great man. How easy il would
be to turn the table and to show that if the paint
ing of the early Italians be ridiculed by COM
pairing it to cheap painted wood-cuts sold at coun-
try fairs the glorious painting of Veasquez can
be ridiculed us truthfully by comparing il to the
daubing OF a country house painter on n sign.
Some of the finest minds of our day look upon the
painting of Raphael and Leonardo, of Durer and of
Holbcin as the highest attainment in the art
of painting, and so it is In its kind,
but our position is that that kind
is no way inferior, in q large-minded
way of looking at the subject, to the painting of
VelasQuez. and Titan and Rubcns, in its kind. Mr.
Ruskin says of Bewick: THE execution Of tho
plurnage in Bewick's birds is the most mastery
thing ever yet done in wood cutting; it is worked
lust as Paul VeTonese would have worked i'll wood
had he taken TO it," And this, we sure, would
have been made plain to the reader of Mr.. Hamer-
toms book had the author given us. he so easily
might, good specimens Of Bewick's birds. instead
of putting us off with two very badly printed
Impressions. How easy it would have been to fill
one of these largo pages with specimens
from the History Of Birds and the
History of Quadrupeds, and another with seec-
ton from those Incompatible vignettes which are
Just as of their niche in the artists heaven as

We must recur for n moment to Mr. Hamertons
criticism upon Bewick " When he has to draw a
branch in the foreground he does first one leaf and
then its neighbor and on, so that You can count
them. There arc three twigs in the left hand corner
of cut before mo; the biggest has TWENTY-FIVE
leaves, the second nine, the smallest sixn Then fol-
low more calculations of the same sort but We viii
not weary the reader with them Did it never occur
to Mr. IameItOn that in every painters or enTavers
work who draws at all, and does not deal in

been SO drawn as TO be distingushable Before us
is Holben's portrait of Amerbach engraved by
Weber. We can count the separate oak-leaves
and even the acorns on the branches that spring
from the trunk at the left. In the woOd-cuts of
Durer examples might be pointed out To WEAKNESS,
but they may also be found IN Titian's wood-cuts,

Encroachments upon the STREETS, etc.

To encroach upon and take away from the
use and enjoyment of the public any part of
public highway, or common, is an offence that
should be punished criminally, because it in
hicts an injury upon each individual in the
community, and is no less a taking, without
consent of the owner, than the stealing of
horse. Such encroachments are seldom at
tempted by poor men because constable or
policeman would come along and kick his OBJ,
struction down and threaten the intruder with
the lookup; but the rich mar, the pot-bellied
owner of valuable street fronts-boldly sets his
stakes into the street, or extends his founda-
tons beyond the actual limits of the property
described in his deeds. The policeman is
busy watching the signs of the weather and
tips his hat to the great man who would not
hesitate to plant his foot upon every inch Of
the public thoroughfare if it would conduce to
his selfish ends; the mayor smiles complacent-
ly while the grabbing'go goes on, and the men,
bers of the council talk loudly about retrench-
ment and reform in order not to be called on
to notice the depredations of the influential
land grabber.
There has been entirely too much of this
thing going on in San Antonio during the past
thirty years.
The old Spaniards had an eye to the COM
fort and pleasure of the people, and not to the
complete qualification of the selfish, grabbing
instincts of the avaricious land grabber. Am.
pie streets, squares. and footways were provi-
ded and reserved to the public.
The river was accessible to the whole pop
ulation, public way being reserved along its
banks, no ownership being permitted to its
margin, and no riperian right obtaining; then
its waters were as clear as crystal.
The public bitches were also accessible to
the public and the ancient deeds and records
show that no private property was allowed to
encroach within vara of the bitches.
The river banks have not only been grabbed
but greedy property owners have encroached
upon the waters and pushed their enclosures
beyond the water line.
The ditch reservation has disappeared en-
| tirely.
These Entertainments are great injury to
the public in general, and of little gain to the
individual grabber. 1t would to-day add
a thousand times more value to our city than
the value to the grabber, if the river was en-
circled by public esplanade.
Streets have been built into, alleys closed,
and devoted to private uses, and business pur-
poses, and yet no effort is made to protect the
rights of the public.
1t is high time the city authorities ascertain
ed the ancient landmarks and proceeded to put
the public in possession of what belongs to
them. 1t is not sufficient that few plats and
pro6les are filed in the engineers Office, and
then forgotten. The grabbers should be not-
fed to move and if they refused, be made to-.
The selfish greed that prompts the taking of
few inches If street or common is really a
passion that should not be grati6ed. But
this thing has grown with the growth of our
| city until precious little remains to the public.
