The Post office, the op'y one of our imp >i*tant" public buildings which can bo regarded as iiniwhwl, looked really beautiful, it.s noble facade, lighted up by rows of brillii'.nt lamps at the outer edge of the footpath. Amu ig tho transparencies there was perhaps some little touch of sameness, which ;s not remarkable when we bear in mind that all tho beat of them were the work of two or three artists. Mr Cheva lier's wero, of course, thoroughly good, and far outshone .all the others in merit, the water babies which he had introduced into all of them being particularly felicitous. Mr Campbell's pictures had aborigines for their speciality, and were spiritedly drawn. Mr Gaidar's ships were excellent, and more life like (if the expression is parmisdible) than any others."" Of course many very wretched daubs shocked the discernment of the dis criminating ; but tlit-a they did their part in promoting the general pleasure, since, if they did not command admiration, they excited laughter. His Royal High ness was wade to as3o.me such an immense variety of ..absurd, grotesque/and improbable aspects, that bis itoyal mother would certainly have failed to recognise her offspring in the majority of them. Admiral Iknbow on a signboard must have sat for the moat of these, so stiff, and wooden, and glar ing were the att't'ides and colon* in which tho authors hail chosen to embody their ideas of the British naval commander. High ehculdered wero some, others decidedly lop sided, others again with tin inane simper upon their faces, alternating with grim and ferocious naval veteranH, nil making a bizarre pretence of beins? Dukes'of ■Edin burgh. We can sincerely sympathise with His Koyal Highness in having hucli aa indignity put upon him as most of those artiste for tho nonce have not hesitated to perpetrate. Her Gracious Majesty the Queen scarcely fared better. Her Eoyal face and figure have been grossly misrepresented, not to say scandalously libelled, in many of tho transparent pictures wh:c!i were last night exposed to view. Aa | for tho British lion, that noble (jnadrupel ! has simply boon made a fool of in iiinuraer- I able instances. A "monkey of any self-respect [ would not submit tamely to such cruel in [ dignities. Even tho magnificent Galatea has i not escaped the desecrating touch o£ these painters (and glaziers).
