A VISIT TO THE ROYAL ACADEMY . _IXo _^ _nXcterafSings of beauty and I | oy forcW A _beautiful p icture to us as a paradisB of _nleasure . And a true _pamter » our cup-Wrof Shest joy . When we cannot get out into the countrv , and revel in the glory of sunshine aud grin leaves , and the waving trees , merry with hen not roll
my _Xd-rormusical smgcn- _* we may _in the lash "reea grasses winch are full of flowers , and breath the air so full of fragrant life and splendour—when we may not revel and rollick in the lovelincss of earth , as it is budding out with spring , and the blue heavens are full of song , and the kindled greenery wears a golden glow—when we cannot climb the sublime old _mcuutvu that for ages has lifted its silent peak u _*» into the laughing face of Hc-aven—or drink iu the uelicious coolness of the merry greenwood _, or rock ourselves on the magnificent bosom of
old ocean , our pleasure , next of kin , is in getting glorious glimpses of these things from Pictures . We lo v e P i ctu r e s , certain of which possess the mag ic o f opening all heaven _vpon tur sou . A Picture Gallery to us , who are shut up In a gloomy _cuj , is like tcose springs whieh , of old , flowed bj the English road-side , and which had a resting-seat for the weary traveller to sit upon , and a bowl _attached for him to refresh himself with a draft of the pure free water . Tbey are our way-side sacrament . In the absence of the reality , we have a blessed mivileec in the _niinter ' _s happy art- . _ui
Blessings on them who Keep sucn _j _«» v- --v .. ...,, _, and warm , and green in their _hesrts , and bring them to us welcome and dear as the cool sod of earth to the feet of the poor sky-lark caged in its smoky city prison . What sparklin ? hopes and throbbing memories thev awaken of the world of plenty and loveliness , the boundless lanu of _heauty that lies outside . They brm ? us pleasant tidings of _fte summer-blue skies , the magnificence of morning , the pomp and splendour of rich sunsets , the starry tenderness of evei _. _ino the woods wkb their gorgeous greenery , and nature
all the clad and g lorious world of . Beauty is a charmed cup of blessiog _, and we never lose a chance of obtaining the delicious draug ht , and when we cannot « et it from the sweet face of _iature , we thankfully accept it from t ' - e hand of her fair sister _ir ; _^ ta _*""*> j thes" _fei-lwa _^ e went on Saturday last to the exhibition " of the Eojal Academy , and intend to tell you , in part , what wc saw and what we thought . Let us say that we are not connoisseurs of pictures ; we are simply lovers of them , and , like every true lover , we think the object of our _nffmffnn rlii > Inrliesf . ami bp . st . We do not _understand
much about Chiaroscuro , and linear perspective , ( perhaps this accounts for cur belief in tbe pre-Raphaelites ) . "We are not particular to a shade . _Nevertheless , we believe that mo * t of the good things of this world have a sufficient charm for us , to draw us straightway to them by the subtle influence of the law of attraction . And we have also a firm faith that truth will always reveal herself to the tree worshippers , who devoutly besiege her shrine . There are more roads to the appreciative faculties than by critical analysis . Highest en the height of our admiration , and most radiant in our memoir , stands the marvellous and loveable
picture cf _« A Iiugcnot on St . Bartholomew ' s Day , re f us i ng to shield himself from danger , by _weari-g the Roman Catholic badge , ' by John Millais , the chief of the pre-Raphaelite brotherhood . The artist has at length made out his meaning iu this triumph of art . In our eyc 3 it is the gem of the * exuihition . If John Millais does not become the paint r of his era , we will never _trust the beauty of _promise again . This painting is undoubtedly the greatest object of attraction in the exhibition—it is the Koh-i-noor of colour * . And well it may be . There is DO such light of genius shod by any of the R . A . ' _s of tbe Academy . All round it look like pictures ; this shines out as st u tingly life-like _, a * anr intense human looks and faces cGuld do .
The lovers are standing under an ivied , red , _bricK-wail , wh ch is dank and mossy—and what minute dilineatioh there is in that wall ! it is reality itself . The nasturtium and the broken flower , dropped in the straggle , are _pourtrayed with li !; e _vividness . The two lovers are pressed heart to heart . She has tied the white Kerchief around his arm , and is looking up in his face mth tearful entreaty and lip-quivering , heart-bursting tenderness . All her heart and life are concentrated in her beseeching pleading look , praying him io wear the badge of safety . And what a face of leant y is there revealed " ? The s u it fears have somewhat nin tberose-hneof lifefrcm it ; hut how pure and perfect its priceless , passionate love What a tearful , soft , sweet splendour mingles with the shadow of eoming woe ! And he , what a living , passing tragedy lie represents . Bis arms
are round Ler ; one is gently withdrawing the kerchief , the oilier _chsps the back of her head with a manful loving caress . And how he yearns over her \ Wis eyes are tearless , and how tight and hard the lines of his face are drawn , as by tie mortal tn _? of Agony , while bis whole being quivers vritbit _? torture on the rack of fiery Feeling . It is a marvellous painting , in every way perfect and beautiful . The luminous and _"flowing depth of colour in that brilliant , puce velvet cloak , was never surpassed b y the real silken pile . ScirceJy inferior to this is the " ' Op helia " by the _sauK- nn :. * _t , and the next iu point of _attraction . _The _' oue , is a pivturc to worship , tbe other , a picture to love . The _critics have quarrelled with this painting hec . iuse of the _prominency of certain details ; hnt we imagine they were very near - s : » _hte-l gentlemen , who , being
compelled to pry _closely , hare discovered certain niinutia , and lost the grand L .- . _nnonicus truth of the whole . Standing at a few paces from it we saw nothing hot perfect harmony , Uw rcost luminous beauty , and a miraculous flnisl .. . Ihe descri ptio _n ia Hamlet ot the maiden ' s death , isadmirab ' r realised , and the painting is worthy of Shakespeare ' s poetry . How rich and real is the _lush-lcavy greenery of spring , and those flowers . ' Who ever saw such in painting ? Yet , amid all th _» t flush of gorgeous hues , the warm fle ? h is as living in its tints as nature . The _expresdi' ! : of Ophelia ' s face is utter unconsciousness of her _niosrafc ] _jperil , she is helpless as infaaey , and incapable of csti : aati-. i » her danger , as she is being sucked by ihe water doMi to : ; er ' _muddy-tiesth . ' There is no pathetic appeal Ei . iJe to the hear ; , she is eliding through the portal of life
asgemiy _, and _unrentable as when spirited away b y the magic _i ! « _eniss of Shakespeare . We must confess that we did _aw . fall so passionately ia love with Hunt ' s * Hireling She _pherd . ' Ait _^ ether it had a repulsire _eifect upon us , and y ? , when examined in detail , it was marvellously accurate , though having worked among agricultural labourers , in all s ? _-tfbfls of the year , we cannot say that we remember to " nave s ? en a red in their faces " so brick-dust-like in its _roughness , and so _vineously purplish ! Their yearning mothers must have marked them with elder wine . There is one t « : i : er noticeable picture of the same school by Collins , * St . E ' izabeth of Hungary in her Childhood . ' The expression J the maiden is not the most saint-like , but , the painting is perfect in all its details . Ward ' s ? Charlotte Corday goin _^ to Execuiion' is a See picture , perhaps the finest
historical painting , taken as a whole , and accepting the artist ' s conception of the subject , which differs very materially from ourown . Charlotte Coiday is descending tflC Steps from bur prison , as . d as tho central figure of dramatic interest , i 3 certainly a failure , there is little heroism in her countenance , little of the conscious Avenger , htr face lacks the splendour it is said to havo worn when tbe shadow of the guillotine was upon her . Much better is the expression of the old veteran guard , who smiles from all his wrinkles on tl : e threatening Fury who stands by _menacing . Caniille _Dasmoulins , Danton , and Robespierre are " assembled in an outer cell to speculate oa the baiting and expression of the murderer of Marat , . Robespierre looks like a half dandy , half English farmer , with a countenance that denotes " jollity more than _brooding
thought—he is i oMing in a mastiff . Danton looks like a _hnse . bloated ruffian . Both are very unlike the Danton and 11 _'' _-espierre who stirt up before our mind ' s eve ; but Mr . Ward ha ? but followed history , as written br the trembling hand 3 of cowards and calumniators . _Nevertheless , as we have said , it is a fine picture . It has ths fierce _intensify , the ferocity , the bloody characteristics , and tbe s tifuso _atmosphere of the Revolution . What we have said here , of accepting the arti 3 i ' s conception of hi 9 subj ect _equally app lies t o Mr . Copes ' s The Marquis of _Saloce marries Griseida , ' which is an immense favourite with us The Pictura has perhaps too much glare at first si ght ; but then , has not tho court come to the cottage ? The llarauis
scarcely nils tse spnere allotted to _lum with tint rich varied , merry-jesting , marvelling _groun behind ; yet ) there is much to contemplate in the glittering young gallant . It is a proud consciousness of the purity of his love , and the full flash of the jewel honour that leaps out in his face , and he most sweetly smile 3 down the oid man ' s feats . Griseida does not play a brilliant part , but , poor thiug , she is abashed before that glare of splendour and the nch magnificence of his love Moreover , t he te a rs ¦ will be starting to her eyes , and the choking sensation _md _cotn ? hurmpgup the throat like a hear -imorm , at the thought of leaving her poor old father .

It is real enough to make the mouth water , and seems melting in the richness and ripeness of its bloom , for very desire to be crushed . 'Hagar , ' by _Armitage , manifests a g igantic aim , not achieved , though it gives a rare glimpse of that laud of the sun , with its rainless _m-oushts , burning skies , and skte shades .

How Cas "We Obtain Political Emancipatio...
HOW CAS "WE OBTAIN POLITICAL _EMANCIPATION ? 10 ME EnlTOB OF THS STAR OF FREEB 0 M . Sir , —There are hundreds of young and earnest men waiting to help the working classes ; but we know not how . We will not waste oar energies in talk , nor be led away by imagining an Utopia which your leaders , do not take a step to realise . Are tbey in earnest—these men ? Do they want honesty , power , or only purpose ? We glance at your Councils . Tbe time is consumed in womanish regrets , or childish recriminations . We watch your meetings , looking anxiously for the moment when purpose and union shall make aid useful to you . Alas . ' the stale epithets—the coarse diatribes of ' 3 $ and 'd 8 , still fall on the dulled ear and the sickened _Vinnrt .
That you are less organised than ever is my only hope . The links that bound you to leader after leader are broken —and for ever . The time is coming when each man must stand for himself . You have been beaten off , because men have been trusted to , and not princip le . And these men , as good—cay , better men than most amongst you—have been fooled into _demagoguism . You have taug ht them to think of themselves , rather than of you . I sec I am departing from tbe usual course , and address the working men rather than the editor ; but as you stand _asjtheir representative , and one of their calmest , I will just point out to you one or two of the evils which , as we think , mark tbe course of Chartists and Socialists , and close " my
letter , which I desire to make practical rather than elegant , useful rather than _eloquent . Fi & _st , we see you ask for too much at once . One point you would g a in , if yon sought for one at a time ; and not even one , without working and wnitinjr—working and waiting for y e ars Your six points n revolution would not achieve . On one point you might re-unite the broken elements of Chartism , cement an union with the Socialists , and bring to your body thoso who have hitherto refrained from joining you , because your objects are visionary , and your instruments scattered . I need not point to the Suffrage as this one point . Public opinion is beginning to regard it as Bate , as well as right ; but you blind men ' s eyes with a vari e ty of a ims , and they can neither give the full consideration one demands , nor help you with the concentrated power which even that one requires .
Then { you must pardon my seeming censorious—I feel for , and want to help you)—then , the measures you take are fee b le , pointless , nnsustained . Your London Conference should sit "for ever "—no matter where . Its discussions should be constant , and its business should be briefl y and simply conducted . You want little money , but you want more earnest men . If this Suffrage Movement were fairly undertaken—although you met in a garret , or a cellar , or beneath God's free roof—the apostles of such a movement would , all speaking the same language—all fixed in the same aim—command attention and ensure success . Sow , you are so knotted into parties that it would be impossible to bring you together again , under any old cry , for an hour . You have squabbled away your hopes , and so mystified tbe people , that they know not what to believe or whom to follow . They would , if they saw you in earnest , come back . They would listen , think , and work .
And why not _educ-ite these men ? You . can do it—not by fervid harangues ; but by calm , quiet , patient teaching . "Why should the mothers be left to City missionaries , tho children to Ragged Schools , the fathers to the pothouse . You have able men amongst you . I know the work would be hard at first—hard , diseouraeing , unyielding ; but tbey would learn the value of your efforts , and respect you for your kindness . Your very paper may help to this end . Simple historical knowled ge , popularly phrased and physiological truths , of home application , would prepare a nation of honest voters , that t yranny could not bamboozle or intemperance degrade . I fear I have trespassed on your time . If you insert my letter , give it place for its sincerity . _TYe are tired of seeing the working men sitting down to promises that beguile them of _fhefr time , their brains , and their energie s ' * Give
them more substantial fare . One dish at a time—a plain dish , cooked with a 3 much " sauce " as you like , but one that they know the name of . and have an appetite for . And then , " to work , " to work in every hamlet in England . Let your orators be good men—men who work with their own bands for their living , and give them well-earned leisure to the work of thought . The labour will be a privilege —and for every labourer you have now , you will have a thousand . Hammer into every man ' s head the wi l l to be a voter . Let it follow him through the day . With every stitch of the needle—with every nail that goes into the leather—with every brick he flings to his mate , with every roll of the wheelbarrow—with every jerk of the shovel—let his hand be nerved by the thought he is getting nearer the hour when he will have some ri ght to be recognised as a man , and an Englishman .
Then , when his work is done—the truths you told him the night before , will hare worked their way through his brain , and he will come to your meetings , ready to hear , ready to think , and ready to speak , too—there , or elsewhere , by right of self-education , which—the best and hi ghest _privilege they have—you must excuse my saying they have not yet been taught . I remain , sir , yours faithfully , 23 . Red Lion-square , Fbaxk CORZO . V . May 23 rd 1 S 52 .
