VESTS PORTRAIT OF NELSON.

Benjamin Vests picture of the death
of Nelson" is closely connected with an
anecdote Of the great sailor says The
Mail and Express. Just before he went
TO sea for the last time he was present
at dinner, during which he sat between
the artist and Sir William Hamilton.
Nelson was expressing to Hamilton his
regret that he had not in his youth ac-
qured some taste for art and some dis
elimination I'm judging it,
But" said he, turning to West, there
is one picture whose power / do feel
never pass a shop where your Death
of Wolfe is I'm the window without being
stopped bY it,"
West made some gracious answer to
the compliment, and Nelson went on:
why have you painted no more like II?
Because, my lord" West replied
there are no more subjects"
"Ah" said the sailor, IL didn't think
of that"
But, my lord" continued West, 81 am
afraid your intrepidity will yet furnish
me with another such scene, and If il
should, | shall certainly avail myself of
it,"
"Will you?" said Nelson. "Win YOU,
Mr.. West? Then hope / shall die In the
next battle"
A few days later he sailed, his strange
ly expressed aspiration was realized, and
the scene lives upon canvas.
