A delegation from Saltwater came

Three valuable additions of the week,
beside" the Morrison loan. have been
tive Terriers from the Newhart gallery
aid, loaned by one of the family. This
last, painted by a woman portrait paint

quantity attractive air Of oid-time
methods. Hanging not far from this

Dunwoody collection, looks out with
Wistful eyes.
One Of the most recent acquisitions
| to the Dunwoody collection is the SUE
perb large canvas by Troyon, cataloged
as Landscape and Cattle. The perfect
to the pastoral scene that stretches
away for an infinite distance is not al
ways common to the work of animal

Mqrillo, Teniers, a Giorgione and
Rembrandt Peale. Several paintings
from the Barbazon school are also
grouped here. A Harpignies, loaned by
r. G. Gale, and delightful Jacque

Knight also shows an Innes landscape,
a Dupre; one of Van Marcke's cattle
} pieces, and good figure piece by an
American artist, Louis Moeller. The
details of this are as clear as lines can
make them.

up of six paintings Of unusual evenness
Of merit. The Diaz is perfect in it's
way-a Rembrantesque way of light and
> shade and subtle touches Of sentiment.
