THE HILL COLLECTION.
We will now just take cursory glance at
the pictures in tie collection loaned by
j. j. Hill, of ST. Paul, which, for so very
small collection, is perhaps one of the
richest we have seen compressed, SO to
speak, in q nut shell.
The EUenjng Journal says that the pic
lures are all masterpieces of the French
school. Tho critic Of the E. j. is not cutie
rightly informed
The two best works in it are by Spanish
artists, though residents of Paris. The
critic of the Journal cannot have seen the
picture, "Blindman's Buff or he would
not have said that it was by G. H. Ban
quiet. The name of Casanova, the great
Spanish French artist, is sufficiently we'll
known, and is legiole enough under the
picture. The great artist has in this pic
ture erred very much against the proper
lions of the human figures of the Spanish
ladies, but the drawing of the hands is
really beautiful and the painting
of the furniture and interior is remark
able for that sparkle and brilliancy for
which the Spanish school excels. He
paints the same models in all his pictures
the came monk and the came women.
He might almost be called a pIsgiarist,
although of a very agreeable kind. A
very much better artist of the same Span

de Amanda, to him has fallen the cloak of
the great founder of that school. Fortuny,
whose best works are possessed by our
rich countryman Mr.. Stewart, in his gal
lery, situated on the Seine, in Paris.
This is an excellent specimen of jim

years ago in the Paris salon. In drawing
and expression this picture is faaltless. It
is titled ''The Rehearsal" An old cardinal
sits listening to the rehearsal Of some
grand mass surrounded by monks and re-
ligious dignitaries of all kinds. The va
riety of expression on ali the faces is Gas
tonishing, from the earnest attention of
the musicians to the anxious excitement of
the leader of the orchestra. One sees
the same heads of favorite
models repeated frequently-such
es the cardinal and the
prelete sitting just behind him, those same
features can be seen repeated through the
crowd frequently. This single modern
picture possesses qualifications that make
it more valuable than ell the Murillos that
can be purchased. Il is the gem Of the
art loan collection.

effects of nature, chiefly Turkish and Moor.

detail, or faultlessness OF drawing Is Mr.
Benjamin Constant and who pictures are
scarcely less valuable. His pictures are very
valued in Paris, where there are some
very fine specimens in the Luxembourg gal

more highly priced. We may pride our
selves on haylng here very fue example
of his art, the Moo ish arch.t .ure being
beautifully rendered and the graceful

French artist, though net the most artistic,
