Benefits of Royal Academy.

A membership of the Royal acad
envy of London carries with 1t numer
Gus advantages. In a word the acad
envy is a benefit society founded on
very generous scale. The pension
fund of Burlington house is a splendid
che. Any Royal Academician who
tails upon hard times or VINO is pre-
vented by Ill health from following
his profession may claim pension,
and the pension sometimes runs into
as much as $4,000 a year.
The Royal Academician who dies In
straitened circumstances and leaves
his widow and children insufficiently
provided for is not thought any the
less of for his Ill fortune. The Royal
academy shows its sympathy by gen.
erously allowing those who were de-
pendent on him liberal sum for their
maintenance. And the wife and the
children of deceased Royal Acade-
mician receive many kfndnesses and
acts of charity from the hands of the
living Royal Academicians, which are
quite distinct from those given by this
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Magazine.
