A Splendid Painting.

At Cyrus F. Dayis's art parlors, No. 61o Con
gress street, can now be seen Hovenden's great
historical painting of John Brown on His Way to
Execution" The picture is large canvas, which
has received the criticism of the art-world of this
country, and most favorably. The old man has
stopped as he descends the steps of the jail, to
kiss the infant of negro woman held up in its
mothers arms towards him Just behind him, on
one SIDE stands the sheriff with the official papers
in his hand, and in his rear are grouped cluster
of typical Southern faces, all naughty, some pitt
less, one or two displaying something of humanity
in their expression. At the foot of the steps, on
either side stand files of United States soldiers,
keeping back the populace. The brick-work of
the jail walls, the dress and bearing of the sol
diers, the realism of the wooden steps, the won
derful harmony Of color in this negro woman's
dress, with her dusky face, and the calm content
in the old martyrs countenance, as he felthe was
dying in good cause, hold the spectator captive.
The picture breathes spirit that cannot be de.
scrbed. Only personal inspection will give the
reader a correct understanding
