TUB TENNESSEE.
Thk oonflioting ratnnra about the Tennessee
leave her fate in doubt, but Increase the pro
babilities that she has been obliged to trust
to her sails instead of steam, and that her
voyage has thas been protracted without
Serious' j endangering the safetj of the com
missioners and her crew. It is said that a
rar vessel sold by the United States to the
Ilaytien Government a few years ago was
lost on a voyage from an American port to
Ilayti, when she had on board a number of
prominent men connected with the Ilaytien
Government, and some of those who are
fearful of the fate of the Tennessee
Would regard her loss as one of the striking
and shocking coincidences that occasionally
ooour in national affairs. There appears to
be good grounds, however, for the hope that
the Tennessee is still safe, and that the chief
tesult of the prolongation of her voyage will
be such a delay in the investigation and
report of the commissioners that the present
Congress will be unable to act definitely and
understanding on Grant's annexation
scheme. If this anticipation proves correct,
the San Domingo question will go over to
the next Congress instead of being
disposed of by the present House and
Senate, and the chances of the" success of the
Presidential policy will thus be materially
diminished. When the Tennessee started on
her voyage it was supposed that time would
be afforded for her safe return before the
ides tf March, and that a favorable report
from the commissioners would probably
insure the immediate passage of an annexa
tion bill. This programme, however, has been
substantially broken up either by adverse
winds, defective machinery, or, possibly, by
a fearful calamity; and from present indica
tions the political future of the' nation may be
sensibly affected by the mishaps of the vessel
whose fate is now an object of universal
solicitude.
7 HE WEST rOINT SQUADliLES.
The squabbles among the West Point stu
dents continue to engage the attention of
CoDgress, and it was asserted in the de
bate yesterday that the root of the trouble
was not only the admission of a colored
cadet, but "the presence of a cadet, the Hon
of a man high in authority, who interfered
with ord rs and discipline." It is to be re
gretted that such difficulties arise in a na
tional school of so much importance, and we
hope that a solution will be found for them.
"While every student at West Point ought to
be taught that he owes his highest allegianoe
to the whole nation, every mere partisan
influence should be excluded, and
offenders should be 'punished without
fear, favor, or affection. It is bad enough
that what is called "influence" determines
who shall be the cadets, and "influence" of
any and every kind should stop just at that
point so that the institution may be con
ducted on such principles as will gtve it the
highest degree of efficiency. West Point is
not supported by the nation as a hospital for
youthful imbeciles, nor as a playground for
young rioters, but as a nursery of the leaders
of future American armies, and nothing
should besufl'ered to militate again it the de
velopment of th i mental, moral, and physical
treugth of the cadets.
1I1E AMERICAN 8TEAMSUIP COM
rANY. The names of the subscribers to the stock of
the American Steamship Company have been
published, and the list shows that the mer
chants and business men of Philadelphia have
fully appreciated the importance of this great
enterprise, and have heartily given it their
support. In the list of subscribers are the
names of some of the best-known and most
respected firms in Philadelphia, and all the'
multitude of industrial enterprises which con
tribute to the wealth of this city are repre
sented. Many of the stock subscribers h ave
also taken the bonds of the steamship com
pany, and have otherwise exerted themselves
efficiently to give it a fair start. The impor
tance of a lice of European steamships as an
auxiliary to the manufacturing and commercial
interests of Philadelphia cannot be over
estimated, and citizens of every class should
contribute what they are able towards getting
the vessels built and the line in running
order at as early a day as is possible. Exten
sive as is the list of stack subscribers, there
are many prominent merchants and others of
Philadelphia whose names are not found in
it, and it is to be hoped that these will at
least aid the enterprise by taking some of
the bonds of the company. The amount of
these bonds is not large for a great a ad
wealthy city like this, and even if they were
not secured by such a satisfactory endorse
ment as that of the Pennsylvania Kailrod 1
Company, there ought to be no ditlioalty ia
the disposal of them. As it is, they are as
safe as any securities in the market, auJ
there is consequently no excuse, especially
for those who will be directly
benefited by the proposed line of steamer-),
if they are not all taken at an early d ly.
If the company can obtain the mjuey
represented by these bonds it will be abla
Immediately to commence building its vessels,
and in a very short time a number of noble
Steamships will be travelling balweon tin
port of Philadelphia and Europe, and we will
obtain A commercial advantage over New
York and other cities the value of which can
scarcely be overestimated. Philadelphia has
been repeated' accused of a want of enter
prise, and as there is now a mtgnifieent op
portunity to prove the incorrectness of such
accusation, it ought not to be neglected.
A body of five hundred mounted horsemen,
who are supposed to have been members of a
Kn-Klux KUd, recently broke open a jail in
Columbia, South Carolina, and took out ten
negro prisoners confined on charges of murder
and arson, eight of whom they instantly
killed. Before the days of the Ku-Klux
similar outrages were not nnfrequently com
mitted in the South in the name of Lynch
law; and whatever they may be styled, they
are indications of the prevalence of a spirit of
barbarism exceedingly disgraceful to the
community in which it is tolerated. Unhap
pily many sections of the South need not only
reconstruction but civilization, and it is vain
to hope for the establishment of law and
order until their savage instincts have been
tamed.
THE FINK A UTS.
The Arademy ml Flit Arts.
The directors of the Academy of Fine Arts
have purchased a lot of ground in a very suit
able location Broad and Cherry streets
but they have as yet taken no steps towards
erecting anew building, or at least they have
done nothing towards exciting a public interest
in the enterprise. The gentlemen composing
the Board of Directors of the Academy of Fins
Arts are all engaged in other occupations,
which employ the major portion of their tlni",
and ihi y either refuse or neglect to secure the
co-operation of persons outside of their own
body for the promotion of a scheme in which
all the citizens of Philadelphia are more or less
interested. The consequence of this manage
ment, or rather want of management, is that
the Academy is now, as it ever has been, an
obstacle rather than an aid to the cause
of art culturo in this city. It
stands in the way of the establishment of an art
school and art museum that will fulfil the
proper ends for which such an institution ought
to exist more than the Academy of Fine Arts
ever has done as yet. It is possible that the
directors of the Academy may be able, in course
of time, to put up a building such as the arc in
terests of the city demand, and when it Is com
pleted fill It with works of permanent interest
and value. They may also by theirown uuaided
efiorts, or with the assistance of a limited circle
of stockholders aud subscribers bo able to carry
on art schools that will educate properly suc
cessive generations of painters, sculptors, and
industrial designers, and perform all the other
functions of a first-class art school. Th? past
history of the Academy of Fine Arts, however,
does not inspire any very great expectations In
this direction; and experience, if it is of any
value as a criterion of the future, proves
that if the new Academy is to be
what it should be, a general tubllc
Interest must be excited In it. The c'.ose corpo
ration plan upoa which the old institution was
confu ted, by which i hi professional artists
were practically excluded from all share in its
management, was its greatest drawback. The
gentlemen who composed the successive boards
of directors were not artists, but were busily
engaged In other pursuits, and looked upon the
Academy of Fine Arts more as an elegant play
thing to amuse tbelr leisure moments thau as
an important public institution that ought to
exert a powerful Influence upon the culture of
society. Now, if ever, is the time to remedy the
defects of management which have impaired
tu a usefulness of the Academy of Fine Arts
in the past, and it Is particularly Important th it
those who profess to be Interested in the matter
should act with declslou and cnergv, as both la
New York and Boston movements for the esta
blishment of extensive art museums and art
schools hive been started under remarkably
favorable auspices. The collection of art works
owned by the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine
Arts is a better nucleus for a great art institu
tion than exists in America, and only a luck of
energy and proper management cau prevent a
really valuable art school from being established
here.
As it is, the only art school we have that is
worthy of the name is the 8chool of Design for
Women, and that Is embarrassed by a want of
sufficient income to enable it to do all that Its
principal Professor, T. W. Braid wood, doslr3s.
The claim of the School of Design to notice
does not consist alone In the fact that it carries
out the aim of Its foundation in educatlug young
women for a profession by which they can earn
their living respectably, but rather In the thor
ough educational course which every pupil is
obl.'ged to pass through. Professor Braldwood's
theory is that art Is a branch of education, and
that an art school, to be worth anything, must
be conducted npon a regular 6y stein which will
firmly ground th i pupil In the elementary prin
ciples which are at the foundation of all the vari
ous branches of the fine arts. At the School of
Design the pupil is taught to draw as in another
school she would be taught to read, and Is gradu
ally led from the simplest elements to the most
difficult combinations the eye, the hand, and
the intellectual and imaginative faculties all
being trained at the same time. The c turse of
instruction at the School of Design is principally
devoted to industrial art, but the principle is
one that is applicable to any school of art, no
matter how extended its aims may be, and that
the course of Instruction ut the School of De
sign stops where it docs is due to a lack of
means to carry It further rather thau a lack of
disposition.
The directors of this school have secured the
co-operation of the Board of Public Education,
immediately for the purpose of obtaining some
pecuniary aid from the State, on condition that
it will educate, free of charge, forty pupils from
all parts of the State. We are glad that this
step has been taken, for, by making the fiuhool
of Design a public Institution in a more literal
sense than it is at present, its usefulness will
be greatly increased, and if the Board of Public
Education takes an interest in its welfare It cm
easily be made a uiom, Import xat adjunct to the
common and liigu BchooU.
It is impossible that we shall ever lu this
country enjoy the eaiuo facilities that the great
art echoois or r.urope u; but we can couipeu
sate for our deficiencies aud to some extent
improve upon tho European schools by intro
ducing a practical system of art education such
as cannot fail to prodji-o results of a most
gratifying character. Io order to do thU, how
ever, the matter must bo put before the public
in snch a manner us to secure general sympathy
and support. This support the uew Academy of
l ine Arts will not receive, except to a very
limited extent, unless the gentlemen who have
its luiinagement in baud will shoYfaouie real
tntcrpri-e and iu tercet lu the Institution. If
tbey do take the proper steps In the matter, we
have not the slightest doubt that they can ob
tain without serious difficulty all the money they
need, not only to erect an elegant and commo
dious building, but to provide it with nil the ne
cessary appliances of an art school and museum
that 111 be a credit to Philadelphia.
Othrr Art (Tlaitera.
An exhibition of seventy-five plcture by Mr.
Edward Moran will be opened in a few days at
Earles' Galleries, for the benefit of the News
boys' Home. Mr. Moran has been emploved
during the last nine months In finishing a la-jre
number of works In oil and water-celor, which
have accumulated In his studio, and In executing
a number of new works. These pictures em
brace a great variety of styles and subjects,
principally landscape and marine, and many of
them are In Mr. Moran s best manner, I he
exhibition, as being composed of the works of
a single artist, will possess considerable Interest,
and we hope that it will net a handsome sum
for the very doerving Institution for who-e
benefit it will be held. It is the intention of ihe
artist to sell these works by auction, and he
originally proposed to place them on free exhi
bition. Learning, however, that the Newsboys
Home was in need of funds, bo generously
placed the entire collection at the disposal of
the managers for a period of several weeks.
One of the interesting features of this exhibition
will be the catalogue which will contain be utl-
fully executed lithographic copies of the pictures
drawn upon stoue by the artist himself. This
catalogue will of itself be a work of art of some
value, as those who saw the proofs on exhibi
tion at tuo Union League House last wtk will
readily understand. Oue-fourth of ihu profit on
the sale of the catalogues will also be given by
Mr. Moran to the Newsboys' Home.
At. the store of Messrs. Bailey & Co.,
Twelfth and Chesnut streets, there Is now on
exhibition a work by a young Philadelphia lady
artist, Miss Mary Stevenson, which Is worthy of
no Ue on account of its fine artistic qii ilitie.
It is a study of a young Italian peasaut girl,
and the artist in copying her model has trans
ferred much of the stiffness, or rather the prim
ness, of tho original to her canvas. Tho little
girl looks too much as If she were sitting for
her portrait. This fault, however, Is ou the
right side, as it indicates careful study of the
model, the poiut wnerein most young artists,
and particularly lady artist", are deficient. The
picture, however, is beautifully painted, with a
sure, fine touch and with a flue feeliug for color
that are rather remarkable. There are not tuauy
artists in Philadelphia who are ale to do any
thing equally god in the same line.
Messrs. Bailey & Co. have also ou exhibition
thrco bronze vasef, cast at the foundry of
Robert Wood & Co., of this city, from desigus
by Horatio Stone, an Americau artist residing
in Rome. The oiiginals of these vases were cast
lu Rome for Mr. W. W. Corcoran, of Washing
ton, who, desiiiug duplicates, had them cast by
the Messrs. Wood. These vases are entitled
resrcctlvely "The Republic," "Freedom," and
"Ecce Homo," and are covered with emblematic
bns-relUfs 'ntended io represent, the political,
relhiou, and art progress of America. As
spec'm n of bronze castings these vases are
worthy o' hearty praise, and we doubt whether
the original n e equal to thu copies made at the
foundry of Messrs. Robert Wood & Co. As
work - of art they are exceedingly Inferior, and
it looks like a waiie o' good material to use so
much fine metal for such very Indifferent
designs. The vases themselves are far from
being ele.ant in eh pe, white tUe figures which
surround them i re b id y proportioned and badly
arranged, and can scarcely be considered as
more than cam ntures. Why Mr. Corcoran
should wish to have such performances dupli
cated is mo e tin we are able to Imagine.
It may not be amiss to m ntiou that there are
also on exhi bition at the store of Messrs. Bailey
& Co. a number of fine works by o'd masters
which should receive the attention of connois
seurs, and of all w; o wish to understand upon
what solid grounds of excellence tho fame of
the old pa u ers rests.
At Earlen' Galleries there is now to be seen
a r markably fine picture by Van Lerius, of
Antwerp, entitled "Cinderella and Her Sisters."
This work was exhibited here some years ago,
when it attracted a great deal of attention, and
it will doubtless be remembered by many of our
readers. It is a different treatmeutof the sub
ject than is generally seen, and the artist has
to some extent sacrificed the sentiment of the
old-fashioned fairy tale for The purpose of lu
creasing the attractions of his picture. The
sisters of "Cinderella" are superb beauties, and
their costumes and the accessories add grnatly
to the gorgeonsness of the work. The picture
is one of the best of its class that has ever been
seen here, and it is well worthy of a visit.
In one of the windows of Messrs. Caldwell
& Co., Chesnut street, above Ninth, is an excel
lent copy of "A F te Champetre" by Claude
Lorraine, which was executed by Miss Gordon,
a young lady-artist of this city, while studying
in Europe, and which the has now offered for
sale for the benefit of the French sufferers. Tb
picture has all the appearance of being a very
faithful duplicate of its original, aud it should
receive the attention of art connoisseurs.
