ART AND ARTISTS. 
The Ladles’ Art ARirwIntion, Mrs. H.P. Guay, 
Pm-hlnnt, hits l'oim«t a permanent gallery of 
paintings in one of tho rooms of the Woman’* 
Bureau, at 4!» Host Twenty-third street, New 
York City. The «>! lection nutubers over titty 
upeciiuensby women artists, and include*some 
very good pictures. Drawing on wood,sUetcb*>H 
in ink and crayon, are included. Members of 
the aesocfutton have here an opportunity of ex¬ 
hibiting their pictures, and persons in search >>1 
women’s skill, tints expressed, ettn here find 
something to snit. their taste. ’I tie enterprise 
looks very encouraging. 
Tnu aniniiil reception of tho Female School 
ot Resign of Cooper I nst iuite took place on the 
evening of May 271 h. Thoattemianeeof visitors 
was extremely large, and only some few pieces 
ol' statuary received general or ordinal atten¬ 
tion. The following day furnished opportunity 
for viewing the work of the Aim students for 
the past. year. So large and Intelligent an a 
sembliure was most gratifying to the students 
and patrons of the school. The Male Depart¬ 
ment exhibited its work in the side rooms. The 
boys’ worksnre mostly architectural drawings 
and portraits ami heads in crayon. Some di- 
cidedly Him specimen* of prospect!vo drawing 
by girls were hung in the male department. 
The pictures by tho young women of the art¬ 
ists’ class are original, although a few had evi¬ 
dently borrowed their originality from the 
memory of well known painting*. Tho Dow 
prize of sixty dollars in gold was awarded Mbs 
EmKI.IM: V. Wlll'PTAKKH for (lie beet poi tntil- 
ure. The Lime prize of same amount was award¬ 
ed to Miss Emma Mavmokp., tier “ Poetic Tour¬ 
nament of Warburg” being a very well execut¬ 
ed sketch. The Goodhue prize, thirty dollars in 
gold, was won by Min, Mary Uiioalhifaij. Hovan 
medals of (diver and a number of cortltieale.s 
were conferred upon ol.hont. 
The collection i inbractld a great variety of 
subjects, bn! rather meager in landscapes, which 
is not |.o be regretted, as no ono eoinpeteni to 
instruct Jn that branch is engaged to give In¬ 
struction. 
In the sculpture gallery, among tho twenty- 
four now work-., IlOt a. lew are well OOOUgh e.vc- 
cuted to be i redilable to more pnief ieeii bands. 
“Hero Holding tho Torch for beamier,” (lie 
finest W ork of Mi.-; llAituiKTT WisniiiOillt, “!St. 
Christopher,” the “Infant Madonna,” “Andmm- 
eda,” with mo t of tho portrait busts, elicited 
much praise. “The Martyr In the Paradise of 
God," a design for a monument, attraclvd uni- 
V( raai attention. It was.HgurQ Of a womati 
walking with bowed head mid n sad, submissive 
appearance. 
The number of paintings and drawings exhib¬ 
ited was about four hundred. Among the visit¬ 
ors present none looked happier than the hon¬ 
ored founder himself, tho venerable PRTRR 
COOPER. 
Some of the artists have already ltd! town, 
and others arc maturing iheir plans, and de¬ 
ciding upon localities for sketching. It is to bo 
hoped t lint landscapists will avail themsolvcBOf 
the easy and rapid transit- to the vicinity ot the 
Rocky Mountains, Including the many new and 
picturesque views along the lino of the i’aoillc 
Railroad. Okkoon Wilson will go West, to 
make studiesof Western beau lie* and costumes; 
T. W. Wood has gone to Vermont; Aktimtr 
Lumi.dv goes up the Hudson; .1 VMKS Hore will

j, (\, JJnOWN, eminent for child portraiture, 
jias tinished a very good picture called "V iva

Mri v;( and playing a violin accompaniment.

The light struggling through the si. lined win¬
