Mr. Edmund Gosse, wrote to the press as fol-
lows:

Mr.. Gossc never got what he wanted. though
il is said that there was "a confidential state
ment to the Committee of the National Arts
collection Fund which appears to have salts
fed that body" Meanwhile the authenticity
Of the picture has not gone unchallenged.
though IT should be added that close watch
upon the fortunes of this canvas has not been
rewarded by any public revelations carrying
any particular weight. The London Morning
Post" which is of course keen upon backing up
its critic editOrially observes that "a number
of men eminent in art and letters always cast
doubts on the aesthetic and monetary value of
the picture" but when it goes on to give names
New-York tribune., 1910-04-17

all it say is that among these may be
mentioned Sir William Richmond, Mr.. Edmund
Gosse. and Lord Ronald Sutherland Cover"
The trio is not precisely imposing. Sir William
Richmond is the artist whose decorations in St
Pauls aroused storm Of protest and we know
nothing in his work as a painter or in his
record otherwise to Justify the assumption that
he has csoteric insight into the art of Velas-
quez. In a recent lecture he informed the
students Of the Royal Academy that there were
two pigments used in the painting of the Venus
which were not in existence in the time IF
Velasquez Whatever the force Of this argu-
mont may be it scarcely holsters up the idea
that the picture was painted by Velasquez's
son-in-law. unless we are to assume that the
latter privately inventfng new colors As
for Mr. Edmund GOssc, he has. so far as We
can see, no standing whatever in a court adiu-
dicating an artistic case. His suspicious as to
the sale do not signify that he is an expert on
Veasluez. Lord Ronald Sutherland Cover
has written some interesting artistic biog-
raThies. but neither in these nor in the work
of sculpture which re erected N Stratford has
he suggested that he is possessed Of rare pow
ors of artistic divination.
We would not, however lay undue stress
upon the character of Mr.. Greigs xitncsses-
though it is a fair point because it is. in the
circumstances, of no great consequence As
rosards the documentary evidence adduced by
EerUctc it seems to us convincing but i'm any
case should turn with confidence to the
picture itself. 1t is not we fear what it once
was. In the process of cleaning it has lost
something of its bloom, and. in fact. il is i'm
possible not to feel fairly indignant over the
tScrubbing it would appear to have received
But not even the scrubbing could rob it of its

Davies's Brigade was intrusted with the
care of the rear of this mighty torrent.
So eager had Sheridan been to start
that he could not wait for rations or
forage, but left with the scanty sup
plies remaining from what had been
issued to the men. He had been conf
dent that he could supply himself from
the enemy, and this expectation, as was
customary in Sheridan's calculations,
was realized. He was not starting cut
in search of his enemy, Stuart; he was
going to make the enemy search him.
Sheridan proposed to give Stuart some
thing infinitely more important to think
about than picking up one of our trains
loaded with hardtack and pork. The
first objective of the head of this reso-
lutte army of troopers was Beaver Dam
Station, on the Virginia Central Rail-
road, some miles in rear of Lees line
of battle. Turning south on the Tele-
graph road which led to Richmond the
column was well past Lees flank by
sunrise, and across the clear crystal
waters of the Mattapony. The bold
dash took the enemyS cavalry un-

in recovering from his surprise. He

Swelling with joy at the loosening of
the fetters that bound him, with eager

whom he commanded, Gen. Sheridan
had spent the night in swift prepara-

would be big with events. The sleeping
troops sprang up at the first notes of
the reveille, and as the forceful gaiety
of the air was succeeded by the shorter,
sharper calls for roll call. stable duty

with prompt alacrity, then rushed off
