other is evidently imaginary. They are 
- very well engraved. 
Much as we have ‘heard of General 
Wafbington, there has not until very lately 
been any portrait of him that ceferved 
much notice. One, fome time fince pub- 
lifhed, engraved by CyHessmMan, from 
a picture by TRumBuLL, has confider- 
abie merit, but the leading portrait is one 
copied from Sruarr by HeaTH, and 
which in point of refemblance is faid by 
thofe who have feen the General to be un- 
commonly faithful. Indeed Stuart’s fide- 
lity to his original is fo great, that we 
icarcely ever faw a portrait from his pen- 
cil, that could not be immediately iden- 
tified. The fketch of the head, from 
which he copied Lord Lanfdowne’s picture, 
has been ‘extremely well engraved by 
NutTeér, and is publifhed by Cries in 
Holborn. ‘The engraving by Mr. Hearua 
being finifhed juft at the time of this great 
man’s death, has had an almoft unpreci- 
dented fale. It has been faid that the 
whole impreffion which could be taken 
from the platé was purchafed by one mer-

By the death of the late Mr. Stevens of 
Hampftead, his very fine collection of 
Hogarth’s prints becomes the property of 
Mr. Windham, the fecretary at war, to 
whom hehas bequeathed them. Of the 
genuine works there is a very fine col. 
lection. Several of them were purchafed 
at the fale of the late Mr. Gulfton; and 
two, at moi immenfe prices ; THE EVEN- 
ING, without the Girl, 471. and an im- 
preffion from a gold {nuff box, engraved 
by Hogarth from the Rapeofthe Lock, 331. 
Large as this collection is, it is not 
complete: bef@des fome deficiencies in in« 
ferior and fcarce prints, it does not cons 
tain, what may perhaps be deemed the: 
moft curious print Hogarth ever engraved,. 
Viz. ENTHUSIASM DELINEATED, of 
which, we are told, there are only two 
imprefiions ; one of them in the very fine 
colle@ion of Mr. Meyler; of Crawley 
Houfe, near Winchetter ;/ the other in the 
pofieffion of Mr. John Ireland, of Hans 
Place, Knightfbridge; who fome time 
fince publified a fpirited copy. 
Mr.Stevens’s collection, including copies, 
Variations, imitations, imputed trafh, and 
relatives, contains upwards 700 prints.
