LANCASHIRi:. 
The members ef the Liverpool Academy 
of Arts, with a nunoerous company of friends 
and amateurs, dined together in celebration 
of the birth-day of the Prince Regent, the 
illystrious patron of the academy. Mr, Bul¬ 
lock in the chair. In the course of the eve¬ 
ning Mr. Roscoe stated to the meeting, that, 
about forty years ago, an attempt was made to 
establish an Academy of Arts in Liverpool, 
on a similar plan to the present, but it failed. 
The circumstances, however, which produced 
its failure did not now exist, and no appre¬ 
hension was to be entertained that the pre¬ 
sent would meet the same fate. The increas¬ 
ed opulence and importance of the town j the 
diffusion of the principles of taste j and the 
superior talents and number of the artists of 
the present day, with other causes, would 
greatly favour the establishment of the socie¬ 
ty, and the meeting might look forward with 
confidence to a period when the Liverpool 
Academy would fall little short of, if it did 
liot rival, the parent institution in

Mr. Earle also addressed the meeting in an 
eloquent speech, in which, after congratulat¬ 
ing che Academy on its flattering prospects, 
he recommended unanimity, industry, and 
perseverance, as the surest means of accom¬ 
plishing the laudable and important objects 
of the institution.—-The second exhibition, 
from the increased number and superior excel¬ 
lence of the pictures, strongly marks the de- 
ligence and improvement of the members of 
the academy, and at once affords an opportu¬ 
nity to the amateur to adorn his cabinet with 
the productions of native and rising talent, 
and Opens to the public a new and interesting 
source of entertainment.
