an extenive dafis of furvey and compa- 
rifon, ane fa viliarize the Englith arcift 
anc amatew with the works of the great, 
fublime, an. diftinguifhed painters and 
fculptors, «hich the fortune of the late

Te presuce his defired eff&, the moft 
eminent artiits in. England and France 
have promiled their zealous co-operation. 
Aim ng many other fine f{pecimens of 
the Engiith fchool, now exhibiting, are, 
the Wolre, La Hogue, Boyne, Penn’s 
Treacy with the Indians, Wright’s Dead 
Soldier, and Mr. Bromley’s very capital 
engraving, from’ Loutnerbourg’s Picture 
of the Grand Atiack on Valenciennes, 
which we noticed in a former Retrofpect. 
The beft pro ution from the Italian 
{chool, is the large print of the Laft Sup- 
per, engraved by Raphael Morghen, from 
the picture by Leonardo Da Vinci. 
Among the moft capital works of the 
French ichool, are upwards cf 300 etcth- 
‘ings and engravings afterold matters by 
Denon, fome of which would be very ufe- 
ful ftudies for our younger artis. Such 
etchings as his difplay ten times the effect, 
and demand ten times the talent, of all the 
dotted fan-mount trumperies ‘that ever 
were engraved. 
But tew prints of any marked merit 
have been lately publifhed. Among the 
little things, the engravings from Smirke 
and Weftall’s drawings for Smart’s edi. 
_tion of the Speétator, Guardian, &c. have 
the pre-eminence, 
There is a very good 
_Chaik-print of 
Marriages and Deaths in and near London. 587

In appreciating the merit of men whofe 
powers can now be called into aétion, the‘ 
public may differ in their opinions of the 
foldier who has a right to be clafled as 
the fecond military charaéter in this coun- 
try; but we believe every one would 
agree, that Lord Moira muft be denomi- 
nated the fir/t. 
Among that order, whofe birth or me- 
rit has pjaced them in a fuperior rank, 
we may, without any invidious reflec. 
tions upon others, affign him that place 
in the fcale where his manly charaéter and 
independent fpirit confer more honour on 
the peerage than he receives from it; for 
however depraved the manners of the 
higher ranks of fociety may hereafter be- 
come, we may fairly apply to him Pope’s 
lines on another charaéter : 
«¢ Here Englith bounty yet awhile may ftand, 
And honour linger, e’er it leaves the land.” 
His bounty is not confined to the peo- 
ple of one religion or one country ; to 
want his afliftance is the only title he re- 
quires, and he in all cafes 
‘6 adopts the noble part, 
To eafe the opprefs’d, and raifle the finking 
heart.” 
We were much pleafed to fee in the ti- 
tle of this print the ftriking coincidence 
of the moft philanthropic charaéter in the 
Britifh Empire, recorded as the deputy- 
grand matter of the moft benevolent fo- 
‘ciety in the world. .
