In out second visit to the Aohdemy of Fine Arts, we shall be compelled In a measure to-retrace ear Steps. In other words It will be'neoassary for ub to speak J of a few painters whom we bad previously imsgtoedwe done ample justice to, and, per 'tape; to blame several whom we had passed over. To do this kindly, and yet justly, is a hard task. Yet we feel that the majority of oar ertlstlo readers will justify ns In doing so. If wiissS ’4nt'NOB.73T, ■ ’ 742,745, 76*, 759, 790,7% and 7s, jfil i» Southwest Gallery, oughvnqt tt> ooeupy ptaoefupon the sight - ‘ une, we otter iioSnore Than tbe opinion whloh will be shared by Jvery judge of art; and, tn refraining from specifying the names of the plotures or of the gentlemen from whose 'easels they proceed, we.feel, ourselves wcrthy of a laurel wreath as one of the most benevolent and kindly-hearted of critics. There Is a little picture by Blarstadt—No. 734, “Wind. Elver Mountain, Nebraska I '—the of which does Injustice to the reputation this gentle 'tnjjghes recently obtained. It Ib, In all probability,' mpfaj painting by toe artist, and exhlbltls great nleetyifr flnlßh,>ahd dSUfeful ■ details, bat,the a olor anplight' and shade want 'the ’gra.rni and breath which now very generalfy-oharaoteriiehls works. ■ A tolerably large painting of l< Maasanleilo Ex horting the Neapolitan populaoe”—No 713—1 s by Alfano, and. exhibits some very exaellent points, although, as a whole, It Is very Incomplete. The composition Is fnll of action and movement, yet we ..believe that quite as mnoh action might hare been ‘lndicated by a more judicious linear arrangement. In Its.outline this canvas Is free and true, as far as It gees, for It scarcely goes far enough, the drawing being thorough nor snfflolently refined, .while the color of the flesh Is generally too Pouss in yj resembling a liberal allonanoe of briok-dust .and yellow oobre. Mr. MoOlurg’s “ War News"—No. 753-has some tsdent, but needs greater knowledge and study on the part of Its painter. An exceedingly clever oanvas by Llttohausor, --palled “ The Page’s Trick,” Is numbered 753. The ■.Spain tlrg ol the “ Spaniel" and of the “Two Boys,” le ouefully good, and tbe drawing is through out marked by ability. The greatest blemish of this picture is the excessive obtrusion of'the pro jecting wall above the hearth. This comes mnoh too iorward and claims a value .in the arrangement ■ whloh It has eertatnly no right to possess. No 7*4 “The Inebriate Farmer," Is a coarsely unpitasant.blt of want of knowledge In drawing and deficiency In breadth. '■ From Tana we have a very capital small paint ing, “ The Admiral in Embryo,” No. 77*, while at no great dlstanoe from It ho hangs a large study of a horses head, whlchhesails “The. Stable Window," This Is No. 780, and although vigorously painted, is by no means as complete In.lts drawing as It ought to have been. We oan excuse a painter of the same class as Botbermel, for being occasionally vague and indefinite, but we cannot exeuso the mere portrait painter. At his hands more than mere resemblance Is needed. In.like manner we oan forgive. Mr. Dana’soarelessneasln outline when his Bubjeot dees not obtrude the; deflolenoy. This, however, is but-a portrait picture animal, sxd we need in It that detail of form and- preolslon ol manipulation whloh alone could warrant the ' artist In the expenditure of color and oanvas upon a - snhji-ct ol this class. Let not Mr. Sana, however, imagine- that we are objecting to his largeness or -hand and manner. This largeness ts quite eon • slstent with minute knowledge and attention to ■ nature- No one can accuse Horade Voynet or -Landseer of being too minute, yet these two great mtfsters, the best painters of the horse we have per -haps ever-known, are exceedingly careful andoom ■ ln their drawing. They do not exhibit a crude Sketch, anddemandfor It the estimation whlah<:% ■ -painting of the same rationally cam-" 1 . ’ m §othermei has one .aJ’flitionai painting .in the -Southwest Room. This is No. 78t. It represents the “Origin of the Guelph and GblbelHne War." In conception and composition, this oanvas Is very original, wbUe Its general color Is like thnmarter’a In everything he does—remarkably fine. It Is, how ever, drawn with less care than the larger painting Illustrative of “ The Lay of the Last Minstrel," which we have noticed In a preceding article, and the expression is scarcely go thoroughly worked out. But, although fanlty In these respeots, It Is a paint ing which no other man than Rothermel os this continent could have produced. Its excellences are distinctively his own, and the color the only color or our present Sohool of Art which may justify the painter in olalmlng kinship with the great masters - or the Venetian sohool—not the kinship of a mere copyist, but that of one Who thinks and works as those men did in the day when they adder! a new characteristic to painting which developed ltselfin the flrstand purest sohool of color In the world. - “The Little Artist,” by Louis Lang, ought to have been better hung than it Is. This Is No. 793, and Is tree from the merltriolous prettfaess of color. Mr. Lang, of late, seems to absolutely delight In A somewhat large canvas of “ Bishop Latimer praaobing from the Pulpit Gross In St. Paul’s Church Yard, against the adoration of the Virgin Mary," Is numbered 783, and prooeedß from the pencil of Sir George Hayter. Tnls painting Is one of the English sohool of Borne forty or fifty years since, and not one of Its very best examples. The composition lscleit,aB it were, Into two halves, by the Fulplt Dross, and Is marked by a great want of breadth, and consequently or unity. In point of oulture It Is drawn with great care, and very honest ly manipulated, while the church and background of the painting are evidently based upon fact—ln all probability derived from old engravings. In this point—the accessory of his fact and detail, Hay ter always stood very high as a conscientious mas . ter, and the value of his paintings 1b Inmost Instances doubled by the antiquarian learning he exhibits In. them. . , Pagono’s “ Landing of tbe Uni tod States troops at Newborn, N. O.”—No. 784—1 s merely a blurred and hasty sketch, exhibiting some power. In No. STS Meyerhelm exhibits a small canvas, which is charmingly minute In the flnißh of Its exe cution, and remarkably careful in Its drawing' Some of the flesh Of the child, which Is la shadow, is, however, leaden, and wants juice. As we have returned Into the Southeast Gallery, to mention this picture, we ought also, to mark the exquisite relief and feeling shown In No. 575— 11 A Curly Head”— by Mr. a-raqfie, and the talent ex hlblted by Mr. J. ». Brown, In No. 63a T “The Neglected Morohant.” No. 761, by the same artist, Is also pleasantly careful. Nor ought we to omit calling attention to the stndy of “ Native Grapes,’’ In the Northeast Room, by G: O. Hamblin. These are numbered 662, and are indlputably as excellent a study of fruit as we have recently seen. Having mentioned the name of Mr. Hamblin It may be as well to return to the room whose eon tents we had been previously examining, and point out his “Sarrano Boses.” These are cleverly sketched in, but no more. We require In all flower painting Borne attempt to Imitate the care and finish of Nature’s manipulation. This Mr. Hambdih does not choose to give. It may be that he considers flower-painting a lower branch of art than that hr which he has achieved so eminent a position. If so, why does he paint flowers 1 And still why dees he exhibit them 1 Or, in ex hibiting them, why does he not denominate them a sketch 1 We ask these questions In tbe most kindly of spirits, for we have too high a respect for Mr. Hambdln’sj unquestionable excellence to permit this mere sketch to be regarded as a finished, painting. “The Interior of a Dutch Homestead,” No. 739, by Mr. Schmidt, is cleverly literal. We have a very careful and well detailed stndy of "An Artist’s Studio,” No.. 774, presented by J. F. Weir. Possibly more gray might have been desira ble on thiß canvas. At any rate it would have been more gratifying to tbe eye, and would have strength ened the brown key of the general color. No, 779 Is simply exceedingly bad. In No. 740, by Yan Don Berg, the general drawing and relief are by no means too excellent. No. 744, “ The Advance Guard,” by Mr. Sell, has some very good points. Its effect is broad, and marked by a.great deal of freedom. The hour is early morning, and the catohlng of the young sun light on tho upper portion of the figures is very masterly. As regards the drawing, while by no means bad, the outline displays no marked excel* lence. Bussell Smith’s landscapes are too ponderously ; executed, and betray a want of that careful study which Nature demands from every artist to whom she unveils the seorets of her beauty. For example, let us take No. 735, “ The Sermon in the Grove,” and No. 65'0, “ The Pass of the Bfooco.” Of these, the last named is perhaps the best. In the first, the outline Is determinately made out, and as aetorml nately lacks that delicacy of appreciation whloh Is now required from every landscape painter. The view of “Oulp’s Hill from Cemetery HUI, Get. rysburg,” No. 741, and “Seminary Ridge,” No. 800, by Bit. F. Be B.’Richard, will be valuable to their possessor as Illustrating thescene of the most North ern battle whloh was fought during the rebellion, A very fine painting, No. 776, is by Hamilton. Tie gray of the water Is grandly painted, while the striking upon it of the sun is both luminous and true. We are, however, unable to compliment him upon his “Convict Ship,” No. 787. It is a crude and ap parently hurried canvas, although the solid effsotof he lower bank of oionds beneath the rift in the sky s exceedingly grand. • The Hand Storm,” No. 758, is remarkably fine md foil of a grand feeling in its stormy grays. Mr. Williams, however, disturbs, this feeling by the in reduction ,of the light on portions of his clouds, which would seem to .have been an alter thought. Neither in form nor color does it unite with the ersndly sombre sky upon which he has laid it. The whole picture is so fine that we regret this blemish if tbis has been painted subsequentlyto the var* ishing of the picture, we would unhesitatingly sag* dost to n!m its removal. Mr. Coles’ “Hamlet in Normandy,” No. 766, is a clever but somewhat empty canvas. Whether this comparative emptiness proceeds from the lack of sub ject or the deficiency of finish, we feel ourselves uns ole to decide, and.recommend it to the painter’s at. reßtkn. No. 769, a landscape, is too much of a scene paint er’s Idea ol nature. Achenbaoh, the Dutch marine painter, gives ub an addlth n'to the canvas mentioned Incut first notice-a Jat-bellied Dutch beggar on the “Coast . f ScLevtclng.” Tbis iB No, 782, and is marked by his usual mastery of hand and fine gray tone. i it is with pleasure that we call attention to PHILADELPHIA, .MGSFI)A Y, MAY 1, 1865.

We need scarcely qppuubltatf'l the programme of theperformanoos, ak we have al ready glvenilt, and shall only mention one or two Of tbe the gems of the soiree, whloh was unfortu nately given to a segnty audience. This was caused by the continuous torrents of rain which last even ing flooded the city. Ho wever, those whose musiaal taste induced them tb defy the elements, were dis posed to happily enjoy the musical feast which was set before them, and by thewgrmthof their applause, when elicited, to Borne measure compensated for the paucity of their numbers. Mr. Wolfssohs’s per formance of Chopin’s Fantasia to ! F minor, op 49, was an exqnlslte rendering of the peculiarities of that master—one ef the most original composers who has ever written for the piano. The flngertog of Mr. Wolfssohh was deliciously and instinctively naive. Indesd, we may without any hesitation class him as cab of the first Interpreters of that peculiar genius now liv ing to this country. Bitter notume and Hutres,* which concluded the second part, was : also admira bly given by him. Ritter, however, is a far less original writer than Chopin, anddemands less origi nality, of mind and piquancy of toach on the part oi the pianist who translates him. Beethoven’s trio in B flat major for piano, violin, and vlolincello, was magnlflcently.rendered by Messrs.’WoliSsohn, Thomas, and Sohmitz. If any one portion of it was Inferior to the rest, It was the aMegro cantabile. We are, however, indisposed eyen to suggest, this, so admirably was the whole of the trio given- A solo for the violin by Spobr enabled Mr. Thomas to dft play his grandly masculine qualification as a vio linist. Had Mr. Thpmas not adopted by oholoe the calling of a conductor and a composer, he would most certainly have justified his youthful excellence by possibly becoming the greates t professor. on this Instrument In the world.} Ls it Is, we oan reckon up but few names who had the dear right to take precedence of him. This evening the fifth oonbert of the series takes place, and we sincerely trust that tbe weather willpermit the Foyer of the Academy to be crowded. To-night that immense popular favorite, Lu eille Western, commences a new engagement at the Walnhtstreet Theatre, and will appear In a character which she has herself created, that of Lady Isabel and Mad, Tina. This" engagement is positively announced as a farewell one, as the lady is to sail in the steamer which quits this country on Jane the 14th. It is not, however—at least we hope so—an eternal farewell, and after a brief stay in Europe, we trust to receive her again as a wel come addition toour list of "stars.” She is one of the moßt widely powerful and : effeotive ac tresses that havehver been seen upon our national stage.

From the Montreal Gazette we excise the follow ing portion of a letter by the rebel General Edwla G. Lee. Be says: I, as an officer of the service of the .Confederate States of America, in their behalf deny everything which Mr. Stanton means by tbe assertion that the "President’s; murder” was “approved at Rich mond.” I assert that no official of the Confederate States authorised, or was cognizant of,; that assas sination ; and I make this assertion, because I-have heard both the President and Secretary or State ex press views, concerning the policy of the Confede rate States in conducting this war, so utterly at variance with the unmanly charge of the Federal Secretary, that X know they neither prompted nor sanctioned the deed. It is my high privilege to know most of the mem bers of the Confederate States Government, and to have had frequent official intercourse with thorn, and for them (as their own selr-rospeot will not permit them to notice it) I aver, upon the faith ot a Christian and honor, of a gentleman, my belief that they were .as little the promoters of this mur der as Secretary Stanton or Vice President John son. Whether President Lincoln's murder was “orga nized” in Canada or not, Is a matter of which I am < qually ignorant and careless. I believe this state ment to be falsel know It to be so, so far as it In volves any Imputation of Instigation, complicity or remotest connection on the part, of myself or of any other Confederate, so far as acknowledge ex- tv e give this as a part of history, although we, doubt much, from Brigadier General Edwin G. Lee’s position, whether his denial or affirmation would have very muah value. Cahikb Sagacity.— Oneofthe reporters of the Tribune indulges his pen by relating the following ■emmkably singular incident at a real occurrence: “ while the funeral pageant, on last Tuesday, was caselng Chambers street, a fine St Barnard dog, wntd by Mr. Edw. B. Martin, suddenly bounded •rom the sld« of bla owner, and ran under the funeral car, where ho quietly walked along untlltbe train - eacbtd the terminal point. This curious perform ance Is explained by the fact that the dog is said to ;iave known Mr. Lincoln well, having ireqaently been caressed by him, mad was with him the day be fore he died.” ' Aw Acumen* a* Habbisbubs.— Quite a panto was created among tbe visitors to view the cata falque and drapery in the House of Representatives at Harrisburg on Saturday week, by the gas jets communicating to the drapery on one of the chan deliers, and setting .fire to the same. The flames rose with great rapidity and fierceness through the ventilator above, and only by the promptness of those present the fire was prevented, from being communicated to other portions of the building.

Russian epidemics are apt to alarm the civilized world,'for ft was Russia which introduced'lnto Eu rope and. thus Indirectly Into America the Asiatic cholera, the most destructive of the epidemics of modern times. We can, therefore, not be surprised at the profound sensation which the reproduction of a few brief telegrams from Berlln ln tens of thou sands of newspapers has produced. “Theplague continues in St. Petersburg. The total number of eases Is 10,000, and that or deaths 2,000, Forty physi cians have filed. The Russian Government has ceased to pnhllsh reports of the number of oases.” . Such and similar intelligence was sufficiently alarm ing to startle the popular mind, and to Induce every Government to tMnk of sending medical commis sioners to St. Petersburg to examine the subject and to report on it. ..... There was, of course,a general anxiety to loam the opinions of eminent physicians on the subject. Their reports fortunately agree in discountenanc ing the sonsational Berlin telegrams. A Rus sian physician in high position, who emphatically denies that there has been any case ot the “plague;” Be designates the epidemlo as a kind or typhus, from which the poorer classes suffered somewhat so-' verely i but the fever had nothing of an extraordi nary character about it. The (Increase in mortality can be sufficientlyexplalned from the fact that dis eases are more freqnent at this season of the year than at any other, especially among the humbler -classes. ---• With this testimony, that of English,French, and other physicians rally agrees Dr. Murchison, physician,to the London Fever Hospital, writes to the London Times.- :If the details furnished by foreign physicians are to be relied on, tt-is notanewpest whioh has in vaded the world, nor has the disease -any relation whatever to Asiatic eholera. The malady ls< evi dently relgpslng fever, which, under different desig nations, has been well known In Britain and Ire land for nearly two centuries, which constituted a great part of the Irish epidemic of 1817, and which about the same time was very prevalent in Upper Silesia and in,other,parts of Germany. The Rus sian disease corresponds with relapsing fever In everypartloularsave one, viz.: its great fatality: but this difference is apparent Tather than real, and is attributable to an admixture of ordinary typhus. The mortality from relapsing fever has rarely ex ceeded'three per oent., hut almost all epidemics of relapßlag fever have coexisted with epidemics of typhus, of which: the average mortality *ls‘nearly twenty per- cent. Hence the aggregate mor tality ot an epidemlo of the two diseases va ries-with the proportion of typhus. Oao pecu liarity of relapsing fever Is that It prevails in great 'epidemics, and then entirely disap pears fir years. In 18S1 more oases, of relapsing tever were admitted into the LondonvFever Hospi tal than of any other fever, but for upwards of ten years not one case haß been observed.) The inter vals between some of the epidemics have been so long tbqt time has been afforded for a new genera tion of medical men to spring np having no ex perience of the disease, and who; on the occurrence of a fresh ontbreak, have.lmaglned that they were encountering a new malady. So it vras ln Scotland in I*l3, and so it is now in the case of the Russian epidemic. The causes assigned for the Russian epidemic are the crowding into St. Petersburg of 48 COO’laborers In search oi work, but more paruen lariy, the unusual destitution,among the poor, and their recourse to unwholesome food, such as*bread containing a large quantity of horned-rye. The epMemio, we are told, is ‘ exclusively Confined to Midpoorer classes.’ In this respect the relapsing fevwr of Russia is not singular- In this country the disease has always been confined to the poorest Claires.” i The Avenir National, of Paris, gives us a report of the opinions of the French Academy of Medicine: “Every year,” it says, “the returi of spring brings with It a typhus epidemlo in European Rus sia, and especially In Siberia. The typhoe is merely the result of this crowding of living beings, cattle aud,people, during tbe snow season. This year the exclsslve severity of tbe winter, and its long dura tion! have had the natural aonsequenoe of eausiog a mere extended, and perhaps more deadly epidemlo - than usnal; such appears to be the sole origin of all thoel sinister rumors repeated by the public press. On Wednesday, at the Academy of Medicine; M. Veijeau, naturally excited by the publlo emotion, questioned the bureau as to what it had learned. Fran the explanations given by several members of the Academy, it appeared that all the rumors were wlthiut foundation.” W 4 might quote the opinions of many other Euto peannhysioians, but tbe above will suffice. So far as we (save been able' to learn from the reports In their political papers* there prevails among the medical authorities the greatest unanimity on the subject. No oate of plague has yet been established. It la arecurrentor relapsing fever, with an admix ture flf ordinary typhus. It has prevailed in St. Petersburg since. September, and the Increase of mortality over the Bame period of former years is by no means excessive. -The'same fever has been well known, in Ireland and Silesia; iu both coun tries, as in Russia, it arose from the poor quality ana from want of food among the poor, and In St. Petersburg the same oause has produced the same result, There is thus far, therefore, sot the least reason for anticipating something worse; as, ac cording to all accounts, the epidemic Is on the de cline. “A Steadob Stobt.”— The present fashion of seleotlsg odd phrases and mottoes as the titles or novels Is open to much ridicule. A correspondent has eentus the following as the result of the cursory perusal of a publisher’s olrcnlar: 11 Belial,’ ’ feeling somewhat “Alone In the World,” bethoughtlilmeelf of taking a stroll.

Tub Rook Island Bailboad. —We read In the: Davenport Democrat that “the company owning the railroad bridge that spans the Mississippi river at this point, decided some time since npon making very extensive Improvements thereon daring the present season, the extent of which is, we believe, to take out all the main timbers composing that portion of the bridge on the lowa elde of the “ draw,” and putting in new and more substantial ones .in their stead. The bridge is not deemed at all uneafe for the passage of trains at this time, nor Is It probable, that with the usual repairs, it would be for three or four years to oome, but In order tor make the structure more substantial, and preclude the necessity of constant repairing, this Important step was determined upon. For several weeks past a large rorce of meohanles has been employed In Chicago In preparing and framing the new struc ture. we believe it is not deemed necessary to re move the as It now stands, In order to make the necessary repairs. The new span will be erected on piers, outside of the present structure, and then brought together by some means best known to en gineers skilled in the art of bridge building. The work may Interfere with the rnnning of trains for a very short time, but even this is doubtful.
