They are universally pronounced the neatest and best fitting collars extant. The upper edge presents a perfect cure, free from the angles noticed in all other collars. The cravat causes no puckers on the inside of the turn down collar—they are AS SMOOTH INSIDE AS OUT-. SlDE—and therefore perfectly free and easy to the neck. The Garotte Collar has a smooch and evenly-finished edge on BOTH SIDES. These Collars are not simply flat pieces of paper cut in the form of a collar, but are MOULDED AND SHAPED TO TIT ME ZTEGK. They are made in "Novelty" (or turn-down style,) in every half size from 12 to 17 inches, and•in "Eu reka" (or Garotte,) from 13 to 17 inches, and packed in ' , solid sizes, 21 in neat blue cartoons, containgloo each; also, in smaller ones of 10 each—the latter averyhandy package for Travellers, Army and Navy Officers.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 11, 1864 Academy or the Vine Arts Of some of our artists svo have reason to complain -L-of the good one's! especially. Why is it Pas L Mr. Sully, for example, Is not better represented? It would be ineorreatly supposed that he, the best: of our portrait painters_ had been idle daring the year, fruits the very few pictures he exhibits. But Mr. Sully has not only been industrious, but has had need of all his industry to fill the orders which he has received. This we know. But where, then, are the pictures e respectfully submit that all artist who possesses the power of Mr. Sully has no right to be indifferent to its exhibition. Truly, the usual 4 ‘ portrait of a gentleman is not CO tine that we elm afford to do without Mr. Sully's help, If there were another sadist as good as he in his own department, then we might be content ; but there is none who &pulls him, le old aa-e be paints frith -et beauty aad correctness that lie has at no period SitrpaProd there is still the undefinable grace, the delicious co . Mr, the unobtrusive vigor, subdued by ft too sensi tive refinement, which years ago plitecil him by the side of the 1. rot painters of the age. The jealous icS of artists ate proverbial, lint we think Mr. Sully's reputation is above dispute. It was *wen heihre moor of its wem born, and has been uninterruptedly maintained by the strength of a genius winch does not grow old, but is as bright and beautiful to-dity aawhen that great portrait of George Frederick Cookesomething more than a portrait ; being one of the finest of Shakspearean illustrations—first de lighted the world of art. That Mr. Sully will paint another picture so great, we doubt; but that he is new productuE, -- works which, in certain qualities, are absolutely unrivaled, we Rnow. It is to simple portraiture that he seems to be now wholly devoted, and of his .Fisece: , .s. the charming portrait of a lady end child, —, atm that or a young nuns, NO.—, sufficiently speak. Yet these do not appear to be the extraordinary a chic vementS of the artist, but are little superior to the average merit of hit produc tions. Why, then, should Mr. Sully, with so many fine portraits, fresh - from his easel, send but one or two to the exhibition? If lie fancies that the public is so familiar with his style that it is - weary of it, lie should'be frankly tOld that we shall not beHrod studying' and admiring, pictures so beautiful till lie is tired of making them. Surely if they are worth painting they are worth exhibition, and surely there can be no good reason why Mr. Sully should not have had ten new works on the wUlls this spring instead of It is easy to eulogize but difficult to explain the beautiful, and yet all fine things are finer when they are analy26l. - for then they are better understood. -To analyze pictorial' art is especially difficult, be cause of its arbitrary terminokary and because so Many persons, who intelligently admire a beautiful effect; lack the knowledge essential to appreeiation of the' - method of its production. Even artists, in speaking of great pictures, generally fail to show Why they are great. We - are told that a landscape is fine because the foreground is so bold, the aerial perspective so delicate in its gradations, the color so superb, the form so noble. But further analysii must he technical, and, therefore, to thOmany, incompre hensible. Breadth, and depth, and tone, and simi lar words, are generallyvague evasions. The best of critics deals in generalities., and even Ruskin, who is almost unrivalled in the power of translating a picture into words, is usually content with deserip don. Even Poe, who could analyze the soul of a flea, made but a poor attempt to explain the eon ktillelion of "The.liaven." With these precedents we may be pardoned for leaving the beautiful to lie its own interpreter, and Mr. Sully has but one fault: he is too - Mild of beauty. There's in seam of his pie tom, an mess of scrAtivencss, an extreme of grace, a refinement which is almost languid. Ho will make the ugly woman - beautiful, the beautifid :roman an gellc. Oliver cromwell,who told his pa inter to put MS lace on canvas, carbuncles and]all, might htri, - e found Mr. Stilly rebellious. But, this fault has the corre sponding virtue to counterbalanceit : Mr. Sully does not sacrifice the characteristic to the beautiful, though, like Lawrence, lie is too fond of improving the feature. , of ins sitters. Finer likenesses no artist produces. He excels in bringing out the spirit of a face, and the more impressive the countenance the better the portrait. Mr. Schussele is yet more to blame. We cannot understand why an artist who is not only great but popular should content himself 'with obscurity. We do not mean that an artist is necasSarily ob scnre Who fails to hare his pictures in the Academy, but that Mr.SelMssele has of late failed to e. - xhibit at all. Last y - ear we believe he had not one plettli'e in the exhibition, and tliislaeficiency SeriouSly inter fered with its value as a representative collection. There arc sonic half a- dozen men who are now idea tilled with the artistic reputation of Philadelphia, and upon whom we depend for works which shall justify the claim we make to art-equality with other eine% Even among these Mr. Schusseie is not the least distinguished.. In historical painting we think he has but one rival, and no superior ; but, without entering into comparison, it is enough that beds - a - true artist original, intelligent, conscion lioll6, :, , trontr, He never paints a weak Piefttre Diner one that is careless. This is much, but it is not all. Mr. SchusSele has the power to appreciate great slime tionS, and to express theta in appropriate forms. In that noble Painting of a Moravian preaching to the Indians, which must be well remembered, though it was exhibited two years ago, lie caught tlie very spirit of the subject and the Steno, 1 We are sorry that the solitary picture ho has sent to the Academy this year did not afford equal opportunity. We give to such pictures as that of "Scott and his Companions;" "Iriing and -his Friends," and his group of Americanlnventors, a decidedly second or third-rate rank. It would lie impossible for a Titian or a linbens to give them a higher -position ; and, indeed, the better the artist may be, the more unworthy is such a E.mbiect for ids genius. When we look at this very well-painted canvas, we feel that Mr. Sehussele has put his Pegasus in _harness. The real genus of the man seems hampered by his work. There is no unity in' the idea : nothing nothin more than a collection of pot* , , traits ol.characteristic and commonplace faces and figures; and from very nature of the thing it is impossible to Make it anything but a collection. We admire the effort the artist has made to concentrate the interest of the group upon Professor Morse's explanation of hiS instrument, and think it success ful to n cc dain lcons over earnestly; 10010 intent ; lint, .if there ever : was a man tile - stood up for his portrait, Mr. -- is that man. Mt Sehussele we suppos.e painted from a pho tograph, and could not obliterate the traces of the Stiffness and self-conseiouness which are almost universally found in photographs. In a less de gree the same stiffness is, found in the MajoHty of - • - the figures; somc of these unfortunate inventors look very - much bored, and others have the appear awe of mon who doubt whether their patents will be - renewed. Is this Mr. Schussele's fault? We think not. . In fact, he has - succeeded unusually well in eonccmtrating the little intrinsic interest the subject possenes, and in foreing into a - harnao- Mous Whole elements that struggle to fly apart. Solitude is the natural element of- a portrait, and twenty.portraits on one minims are necessarily twenty rivals and twenty centres of interest. -In treating the difficulties of his subject the artist has displayed great skill. Few people understand how much harder it is to paint a commonplace than an insphution. But, in the first place, ne doubt the friends of each particular inventor considered him entitled to the principal .place in the picture, and as Mr. Schussele had but one such place at hit flit go,:al, nineteen gerdiemen were necessarily slighted. Again, as theSe faces are all portraits, it was re quired that each should be fairly displayed. The artist, therefore, was cut off at. once from the free ace of light and ehadowelenients of which he is a.-master-and obliged to bring every face into the - full view of the spectator. The entire subject is therefore forez•cl into the foreground. But how )tell has Mr, Schussele contended with these difilenlties ! Ile has concealed awk wardness, reconciled conflicting elementsgiven pictorial interest to a subject which has .intrinsi cally none, and produced a work which is unex celled by any of its idnd. From it alone it would be evident that ho is a good ambit, though no one would know from it that psis great. We:complain, therefore, not the Schussele has exhibited this picture, but that he has exhibited nothing else. He has the, right to paint as many inventors as he pleases,. but no right to neglect great subjects in which he eau alone find fitting opportunity for his power. This we say in the kindest spirit, with no wish to disparage the value Olds production, or to misrepresent Ids true positioniin art. Charles Dickens' New Serial. On the 30th of April was published in London the first number of a new serial, by Charles Dickens, en titled "Our Mutual Friend," which is to be coin- Octal in twenty monthly numbers, after the fashion of Pickwick and the majority of Dickens' other tales. Daring paid 0 : 000 to Mr. Dickens for early sheets of this work. Messrs. harper, who had announced its publication in their well-known Magazine, re• solted to prevent piracy on their property, and pub lished. the June number of Harperis Magazine on Friday last, the sixth or May, which is as near a simultaneous appearance in London and Now York as could be expected, and which gratifies public cu riosity with the slightest possible delay. Of the other contents of the - Magazine wc cannot now pause to comment, thoni;h we find them pleasant and pro fitable reading—but a new story by Dickens is all engrossing. Of " Our Mutual Friend" four chapters are given here, viz; 1. On the Look-out. 2. The Man from Somewhere. 3—blether Man. 4. The 11. Wilfer Family. The scene opens on the Thames, between Southwark and London Bridge, and the first cha racters, described with the author's usual minute ness of detail, are a father and daughter, the tirA, evidently a sacuxcis seja, ambling the rudder of a small boat which the second propels by means of a paid yf sculls. The mall'S Dame fee Je8541 I exam and the daughter, evidently Of a bettor order, is called L rare. In the second chapter, the reader is dropped Into a dinner-party at the house of Mr. and Mrs. Veneering, people of small account, it seems, who hove Made money, and are trying to work their way up into what is called "good society' , in Lon don—what money cannot always do, by the way. A number of characters are introduced into this chap ,tor, among then, Mr. Mortimer Lightwood, an at torney, and Mr. Eugene Wrayburn, a/ barrister, neither of whom is overwhelmed with professional business. This chapter, we grieve to say, is very badly written—the worst ever published by Dickens, wept the miserable tarts of „ntleak iiouse,'! in Is e • c h r i a lt e l : e tul b a or s ed ir t T he ixo lu t b vi lie with Lord Bindle, Lord Colonial Lord Poodle, Messre% Gordle,llordle, and :Torino, besides Noodle, with P atin Mr. Veneering 's . something c,t,s l: l7 9; o , ais s s v to i s t lo l lu t rip t c le m, D te.sp i n le irn o ys i: the conversation i ll s i t ll o , b i l e o a f Ti a ng L a u g s t i s o . e r s ti t i o n r e a t ' o ul ls l is is tforp j r i o l Y A W le i d th h a e e.

The Wyoming, a Federal man-of-war, is in this port, and Captain McDougal-says it is impossible for him to accomplish anything towards her Capture, fortis looking for a needle In a Itity-s.tack, or a drop of water in a bucket, and that lie never 03:- peels to be as near her again as ho was when off Singapore. She Iris taking in coal off the ishind of Wrokatoa: when the Wyoming paned itroand the oilier side of the island in chase of her, and but twenty miles distant.

She came into .New Harbor and coaled at the wharf. I went down' alongside, but would not go on board. She is a. small, pretty ves sel, of about GOO tons; very long lower masts, and yards on fore and main, with is battery Much too heavy fur her. to fight in a sea-way.

The Coilfederates have their spies here, who let them know everything that is going on. But I shall weary you about ships, and so for something else.' "The Sthtof, thigymontli (February-) was th.o com mencement of the Chinese Now Year. They count their year by moons, sometimes having twelve and at others thirteen moons in a year. At that time all business is suspended, even amongst the poorest. It is a law and custom, that by the Mst day of the new year everyman shall have his debts paid, and, if not, he is bambeoed and driven out of the place ; a seem ingly good custom, which however often loads to evil, since 01 kiatig.of means are resorted to for the ac complishment of so Importantan end. An incident la tc,ly bccurred here, a sad tale, and by no means an uncommon one in this part of the world. A Danish vessel, the Chicot," was towed out by a steamer, but, as it was "too late to sail, that night, the captain anchored. Before daylight somoUldne.c pirate junks .came alongside, and threw on .board what are vulgarly termed 'stink pots.' These arc most destructive, being in baskets. which are tied to the mast-head of these junks, and are compaSed of sulphur -and other OliWISiVe mixture, and they hum inn slow, consuming lire, creating a most dis gusting odor, which suffocates all on board. The pirates threw these things on board the Chicot, then jumped on the vessel, and murdered nearly alt there first euttiu. off the captain's SIA.M; ana the. cutting: his throat. A few of the crew escaped in a boat belonging to the pirates, and spread the alarm, but it was too late.

The poor Danish vessel was- almost destroyed by fire, and, what remained was towed ashore by the gunboat. * * * A "The Chinese are a cruel and treaeherous people, and I verily believe any or them would murder their own mothers for the sake of gettiro- it dollar."

Lord Lyons, C. 8., 4-c., H. .11. Minister to the Governmont of the United &film My LOUD! I have been instrue ted by the President to acknowledge the receipt of a despatch from your lordchip, enclosing a copy of a portion of a. despatch from Earl Russell, IL B.

The President desires me to say to your lordship, that while he is not unwilling to waive, in existing circumstances, the transmission of such a document through other than the, usual and proper channel, it would be inconsistent' with the dignity of the posi tion he tills as chief Magistrate of a nation com prising a population of MVO than twelve millions, occupying' a territory many times larger than the United Kingdem, and possessing•re,:imrces unsur passed by those of any other country on the face of the globe,. to. allOw the attempt of Earl Russell to ignore the actual existence of the Confederate States, and to contumeliously style them so called," to pass without a protest and a remon strance. The President, therefore, does protest and romon2trate against this Ein.lied. insult.; sail he io„ struets me to say, that in future any document in which it may be repeated will be returned 11139,11• swered and unnoticed.. - - respect to the subject of the extract from Earl - Russell's despatch, the President desires me to state, that the plea of neutrality which is used to sustain the sinister course of her Majesty's present Government against the Government of the Confederate States is so clearly contradietdd by their actions that it is regarded by the. world, not even excepting the United States, as a mere cover for actual hostility, and the President can not but feel that this is a Just view of it. Were, in deed, her Majesty's Government sincere in a desire and determination to maintain neutrality, the Pre sident would not but feel that they would neither be just nor gallant to allow the subjugation of a nation like the Confederate States by such a barbarous, despotic race as are now attempting it. He cannot but We], wjllitlic history and traditions of the Anelo. Saxon race before him, that under a Government faithfully representing the people of Great Britain, the whole weight and. power of that nation would he unhesitatingly thrOwn into the scale in favor of the principles or free government on which. these States were originally formed, and for which alone the COnfederate States are now struggling. He can not but feel that with such as Govermnent, and with the plea of neutrality urged upon the peo ple, as it now is, . 110 such Pullet spectacle could be wi inesod it.; is now manifested by her Majesty's present Government, iu the persistent persecution or the Confederate States, at the beck and bidding of onicers of the United States, while a prime minister mocks and. insults the intelligence of a House Of COMinonS and of the world by excu sing the permission to allow British subjects to go to the - United Sts tes to 'fight against us, by the pal try subterfuge that it WaS the great demand for labor and the high rale of wages that were taking them thither. lie cannot but feel that a neutrality most eonnlitgly; riudavlausly, fawningly and inso lently sought nail urged, pegged and demanded by one belligerent and repudiated by the other, must be seen, by all impartial men, to be a mere pretext air aiding the cause of one at the expense of the Other; while pretending to be impartial, to he, in short, but a cover for treacherous, malignant hos tility. As'for the specious arguments on the subject of the rams, advanced by Earl Russell, the President desires me to state that lie IS content to leave the world and history to pronounce judgment upon this attempt to heap injury upon insult by declaring that ' her Majesty's Government and law officers are sa tisfied of the questions involved, while those ques tions lire still before the highest legal tribunal of the kingdom, comp - OSM of members of the Govern ment and the highest law officers of the crown, for their decision. The President himself will not con descend to notice them. I have the , honor to be your lordship's obedient, humble servant. • BURTON N. HARRISON, Private Seciy.
