We may class this painter among those of his adopted country,although his edu cation and manner belong to Dusseldorf. Two _of his best pictures belong to Mr. Corcoran. One is classical : an amazon,cronching panther like on her shield, incites her little girl, a child of three, to wrestle with a dark boy, a fine little cub, of a year older; these naked children are almost worthy of Bouguereau. The second LB a genuine historical. Picture, of as strong literary interest as that of Faed. Milton, in a group of sixteen figures, plays the organ to Cromwell and his family, Who are conceived as visiting the young Secretary.

I do but reflect thi'Cipinion of the vast majority of American residents in this capital, and in Europe generally. It is difficult, per- Imps, at home quite to appreciate the kind of feelings with which such an event would be regarded by Americans' who have • lived long abroaa, as well as by the Eng lish themselves who sojourn upon, this continent. But I believe Ido not greatly ex- agge rate or misrepresent those feelings when I say that they would amount to something like shame at wittieskiniliere,, tinder:the eyes of the'.representativeS of what, a 7 re .pilled the "great railitarytitointichieiorktirope," such a spectacle as that of the "people" of Great Britain and the United States tearing each other to pieces. Here we are chiefly accus tomed to speak and to hear of "governments" going to war for the interest of dynasties or persottal ambition ; and the_ great struggle of those - who strive for liberty is. to get the destinies of the nation into its own hand, in which case they promise themselves - that the destructive wars of former times could never be repeated. In the electoral address recently put forth by 31., Jean Dollfus, the great manufacturer, the Cobden of France, and one of the most liberal,,men in this country—one of his express stipulations was that no war should ever be undertaken except with the consent of the "people"—in which ,case he very • evidently presumed that wars would rarely or never take place at all. But if a • war should ensue between England ..and- , America, it cannot do so other Wise than by the consent of the "people" of those countries; and upon the two nations themselves must rest the-respon sibility and opprobrium of such an issue. And what will be said of both peoples by the mili tary and despotic governments of Europe; or by those which are endeavoring to re-model themselves after English and American ex ample; or by those smaller : free States, whose main support and safety is derived from the moral influence exercised over the rest of the World by the sight and - example of the working of 'free institutions in England and America? One can imagine, indeed, with no small.bitterness and regret, how the first would chuckle and re joice, how the second would begin to doubt and ,hesitate, and • hpw the last would feel something like'despair at seeing the "only two free nations in :the world" play such a miser able game. Why,Napoleemlll himself might turn round to...the French., Liberals, and.- ask tin m, with a smile, what they had to say against "personal" government after this, when ,they saw that the. "people," 'when left to act - for' - tfiernSehrei and - as their • own masters,• 01=4 _such egregious To - any one living in Europe,and studying the future fortunes - of , , the world at large, the prospect aof War be tween England and America is precisely as though the last light Were, about to set,_and the very blackness of darkness about, to conie - over the'face of the earth.

Now, the legislative power of the republic. has filled me with greater surprise, promoting me to the command in chief of. the liberating army. of.
