The painting took a whole year, and is con sidered the finest of the entire list of numerous populor productions by Lillia M. Spencer. The engraving was the labor of four years, by three eminent artists John Rodgerg, Samuel Unlpin, and Samuel Hollycr ; The luBt named having been induced to come from Europe to finish it. The engravers have ably seconded the successful labors of tho painter. None but artists can fully appreciate the skill and labor lavished on this engraving Tho general ef fect is very fino and impressive, .ind the deli rato finish to the heads will bear the most mi nute inspection. The union of line and stipple is executed with unusual ability, and their skilful combination has greatly contributed to the success of the engravers iu this unsurpass ed proof of their genius. Thejwork on the engraving alono cost over seven thousand dollars, besides the cost of the copyright, and is acknowledged by competent judges the most elaborately finished large work of art evor engraved in America. Fine copies of this magnificent picture, on heavy plate paper, worth $10 each, are to bo given as a premium to each subscriber to DEMOREST'S MONTHLY MAGZINH.
