The Portland Transcript thus describes the
studio of Tilton, the landscape painter in Port
land Mr.. Tilton occupied a studio some thir-
ty years ago in John Meals building on Ex-
change street in this city. Mr. Tilton had then
newly come to this city from some town in
New Hampshire and was earning his bread by
painting landscapes on bedsteads for furniture
makers, while diligently studying his art We
remember often walking With him of an even
ing in 'Ross's Pasture" opposite the head of
High street, where we went to witness the
glories OF the sunset. as its brilliant colors were
reflected in the waters of Back Cove and light
ed up the dome of "Deerings Woods" Mr..
Tilton, then an ardent youth, enthusiastic in
the pursuit of art, often spoke of his love of
art for itself rather than as means OF acquiring
wealth. He was encouraged to go abroad by
John Neal, and in Rome has won not only
fame but fortune.
The Boston Transcript thus describes his
studio in Rome: Mr. Tiltons studio is more
like the abode ofa wealthy and fashionable man
of the world than the work-room of an artist.
A feeling of comfort pervades you as soon as
you enter it. Soft carpets cover the floor, old
and valuable tapestries hang on the walls,
easy coucheS and lounges are waiting to receive
you, and warm stoves and flowers soften and
perfume the air. The stairs, even, leading to
the studio are transformed into orange and
lemon groves, leaving but enough bare space
for the foot to tread upon. A long gallery or
terrace also TANKS the studio, and overlooks
vate parks in Rome. Not a sound is heard,
not human form is seen. You might be miles
away in the country. Here Nature in its fair
est mood smiles at you.

THE HnRKomnR COLLECTION.
A Description of the Process of Etching.

About three hundred people visited the Her
komer collection in Motley block yesterday.
We would remind our readers that the pictures
can remain here but three days longer. They
are then to be ent to Providence, Rhode Is
land, whence they will be shipped direct to
London, England. Mr.. Herkomer has just
finished portrait of w hitelaw Reid, president
of the Lotus club, and editor of the New York
Tribune, and Is now ct work in Boston upon
several portraits of prominent citizens of that
city. Enquiry has been made as 20 the differ
ent processes of engraving referred to in our
article of Tuesday last. Briefly, an etching is
a picture printed from a copper, or zinc plate,
the lines of which forming the different de-
grees of light and shade, are etched Tor eaten)
into the metal by the action of acid, these lines
are then filed with ink of about the consis-
tency of very thick cream by passing roller
thoroughly charged with the ink repeatedly
over the plate; the plate is now wiped clean
with the exception of the sunken lines which
are still charged with the ink. Upon the plate
a damp piece of paper is now placed and paper
and plate are passed under a roller of enorm-
GUS pressure, the paper being driven into the
AHAtOW0u ltH0 tdhoo up Vuo Auh, ICu1Ufo tHb
paper and you will find the picture. Five or
six large prints are pretty good days work.
How is the line eaten into the copper with
out the acid biting only Just such parts? The
pl ate is first covered with what is technically
known as ground this is then blackened
with smoke, a drawing is now made on the
plate with sharp steel instrument called
needle; acid is now poured on Tor the plate is
placed In bath of it) and wherever the copper
has been exposed by the needle there the acid
eats. Light lines are the result of only few
moments exposure; they are then stopped
OUT with asphaltum varnish which dries in a
few minutes and is acid resisting. The next
darker lines are now bitten and stopped, and
so on until the plate is finished.
In our paper of tomorrow we shall give
description of other processes of engraving and
etching
Following the exhibition of the Herkomer
pictures the Society of Art will probably have
for short time some examples of the work of
the celebrated French landscape painters,
Daubigny Rousseau and Corot, and the battle
painter, Detaille.

THE CITY SOLICITOR.
Abject Apology by the Argus.


AS will be seen by the following extract
from yesterdays Argus that cheerful journal
has promptly eaten its peck of dirt and appears
to relish the feast:
IN JUSTICE TO MIR. LooNEY.
The election of subordinate city officers has
taken place, and Mr.. William Ell. Looney has
again been schosen City Solicitor. The city
editor of this paper did what he could to defeat
Mr.. Looney, solely on political grounds. Be-
tween Mr.. Looney and himself the most pleas
ant personal relations have always existed, and
do exist today. In justice to Mr. Looney, it
should be stated that it has been learned that
the suit for $43.25 brought by him against
Julia Ryan, and entered at the present term
of the Superior Court has no connection with
the matter of trying to obtain pardon for this
woman, bat is for money due Mr.. Looney for
other legal services including money paid out
for her by him. The writer is satisfied that
Mr.. Looney rendered abundant service in at
tempting to obtain Miss Ryan's pardon to earn
the $3.50 he received from her.

STATE NEWS.
KENSEBEc COUNTY.

The journal says that applications were
made by the Edwards Manufacturing Compa-
ny and by Mr.. Chafee for injunctions to pre-
vent the levy of any Judgment which might
be obtained on the suit brought by William
Sprague on the Sprague property in Augusta
and that William Sprague petitioned for re-
moval of the injunction suits to the United
States Circuit Court at Portland. Tuesday
hearing was given on the injunctions and on
the question of removal before Judge Peters
at the court house. The court intimated that
injunctions would be granted lin favor of the
Edwards Manufacturing Company and Mr.
Chafee, to prevent any levy being made on the
Augusta property unless the actions were re-
moved TO the United States Court, and on the
latter point the decision was reserved
The Journal says: One of the coolest days
last week boy eight or nine years old strayed
into the the.newspaper mailing room of the Au
gusta post office. He was thinly clad, his face
was wan and pinched, and his bare toes pre-
truded from a pair of old rubbers. As the lit
tie fellow stood over the register shivering with
cold and endeavoring to warm his benumbed
limbs, he presented pitiful sight, aud the
clerks generously resolved to relieve his suffer
ings. A collection was taken up among them
and pair of good, serviceabe boots two
pairs of warm stockings, two SHIRTS, pair of
pants and a cap were purchased and presented
to the boy. Mr.. Hill, assistant postmaster gave
him coat, and being rid of his old garments
the little fellow put on his new suit and went
on his way rejoicing. Since then the boy has
been attending school, which he was unable to
do before on account OF his scant clothing.
