Whitehall Paintings.

After being engaged on the wor kfor six
months the artists commissioned by the
office OF works have completed the res
toration Of the magnificent Rubens ceiling
Of the banqueting hall Of the old palace
Of Whitehall, which now forms part Of
the Museum Of the Royal United Service
Institution. The ceiling Is divided into
nine compartments by a rich framework
of gilded holdings The paintings which
were removed from the ceiling have been
remounted. After the lapse of more than
27O years they still retain much Of the
brilliance of Rubens' wonderful coloring.
The subjects are allegorical and fiattering
to James / and Charles 1, who commits
stoned the great artist to paint them in
1890 for the sum of $4,000. Altogether
the paintings cover 400 square yards Of
canvas. The portraits Of both the unfor-
tunate Stuart monarchs are introduced.
and the allegories are intended to repre-
sent their power, their wisdom and their
virtues as Rubens conceived them. The
paintings have been thrice retouched be-
fore in the reign of George II by Kent,
In 1875 by Cipriani, who was paid E2,OOO
for his work and in 1887 under the d.
rection of Sir Robert Smirke. The hall
is now being decorated. and when the
work is finished the art. science and nat
ural history collection. together with the
books and documents, will be replaced In
the central depository.

Memorial to Manning.

Catholics will learn with pleasure that
at last a definite scheme has been formu-
lated for placing in the new Westminster
Cathedral a memorial to Cardinal Man
ming. No Catholic prelate in England ever
did so much to win the respect and ad-
mration Of all classes and creeds as Car
dinal Manning. and 1t has been felt for
some time that the cathedral for which
he worked so hard would not be complete
without tribute to his memory. I am
informed that there have been so many
calls on the purses of Catholics in con-
nection with the new building that 1t has
been thought inadvisable to erect too
stately monument. The cost will not
exceed f7O0, and no trouble Is anticipated
in raising this amount.
The memorial will take the form of a
bronze effgy on the cardinals tomb In the
crypt below the high altar. An inscrip-
