New Yonix, March 15.—Calling at the studio of William Pagetne other dar, I found that gray-haired, genial artist enjoying his light lunch of coffec and crackers. In a corner of the room stood what is to be a reproduction of the Farragut portrait which went to Russia three or four ycars ago. On one casel was the full- length “Shakspeare * which culled forth much comment at its first exhibition, and which cost the artst many thousands of dollars and monthsof travel and labor. On another was his favorite study and leisure-hour piece, a copy of Titian’s portrait of himself. To those who know Mr. Page, it is needless to say he consid- crs the original as the first of portrits, pro- duced by the first of portrait-painters. He has for vears Yeen working away at one or another copy, and with the. success that usually comes from persistence. The copy I saw was on iti- ported canvas, grained after the original, and “was perfect coough to justify the story told of certain authoritics at Floreuce who insisted that one of his copies was an original Titian, and would not Iet it pass until a visit to the gallery proved their mistake. During his long resi- dence in Florence, the artist told me, he never missed his daily walk to the gallery of St. Luke’s, in the Pitti palace, where the portrait hung. This was the standard, the one featurc that showed the faiseness and exaageration of evervthing around it. There was an old sketch extant, he said, which disclosed the design of Titian to represeut himself as critic of his own work. The palette wasin his hand, and the hand was turned away from the picture as if 1o say it were finished, while the general expres- sion of theface told the calm decision that it was well finished too. The hand does mot ap- pear in the portrait, and this part of.the ex- planation the spectator must supoly for him- self. A friend with me suggested to Mr. Page that he paint his own portrait in tone and form sim- ilar to that of his master. Theidea was cer- tainly not a bad onme, for the artist has a head to be proud of. He simply smiled and said no substitute could be worthy such treatirent, even wero lhe not averse to imitation, which would be uu- avoidahle. Whether he should be repressuted | at the Academy this year, Mr. Page had not de- cided. I he were, it must e by an unfinished picee, owingtocontinued ill-healt. ile brought o light a portesit of a Jadr, nearly life-size, which bad stood untouched with face to the wall forsome years. ‘Tiie lady lives iu the city, and this made it questivnable waether he ougnt 10 cxhibit the picture in its incomplete state. A few touches with brush afid chialk, however, | might justify hanging it, with 2 card o explana- tion attacked. TILE STORY OF TWO PAINTINGS. In remard to the Farragut vortrait, Mr. Page £xid he was bringing it to completion as rapidiy as time sud health would permit. The pain , Ie2 thought, was oue which, both for its bi: tourical and personal character, should have per- wsanent place in this country. The origiual was Russia, boyond the resch of those in whom it | mizht ire national pride. The copy, or more properly the reproduction of the original, ne purposed to have remain at home. In toue and zolor it would he an improvement on the first. It was refreshing Lo see the gallant old Commo- dore, unconcerned and straighi as the mast be- Fkiud him, looking on at the battle supposed to ne raging hotly below. Those who re- call the portrait will recall also the inusing and diverse criticisms drawn out by the single coil «f rope whick passes round the Commodore’s waist. The artist was taken to task for inaccuracy, the impression beingthat . the Commander was lashed to the mast, and’ -thar a dozen twists of rope would have been somethinz Iike. Reminded of the puint, Mr. Page laughed heartily, and gave me Commo- dore Farrazut’s own version of the occa- sion chosen by the -artist for his rep- resentation. Juwas a common ;recaution for one going aloft to cateh about him a bit of rope, and mgke it fast to anything bandy in case of a long stop, likke a lookout. In caseof a slip or astray sbot this might prove extremely con- venient. Asthe Commodore waslo watcha shurp fight, and did not wish cither the sex or the enemy t get his body, if he were bit Ly 2 high specling missile, he took the precaution and rope, and did all the “lashing there was about it him- sclf. From the tone of Mr. Page's remarks [ inferred that, if the picture were not bougnht for, I some public buildiog, he meant to make it bis Shirlaw has arrived ffom Munich, and announces his intention to locate permanently in this city, ingfead of returning to Chicago. Ilc is now looking about for a studio and awaiting the ar- rival of his paintings, which he will cxhibit pri- vately in casc they ere too late for the Academy opening. The reports arc that Mr. Shirlaw has beendoingsome exceedingly fine work in Munich, and to the delight as well as surprisc of the masters there. It is & noteworthy fact that the eves of various German painters who call themselves masters were opened to new beau- tics of art by pupils who went from Prof. Wil- marth’s classes at the Academy to pursue their studiesin Munich. The scientifie rule of rep- | resenting everything as it is—a rule emph: ally German—has been considerably moditied through this foreign influcnce, though proba- Lly the masters over there would never admit it. ' Prof. Wilmarth believes rather with the French in painting things as they appear. WIERE TO STUDY. The advantages offcred by the metropolis to art-students arc not what they ought to be, and not what they were two or three years bacl The difference was made by the retrogression of the Academy. The Council hope soon to more than _regain ground that was lost purely from fivancial causes. The Antique school this geason has numbered about seventy stude The most. popular means of advancement, Wwith those who can afford it, is the League, which Dhas some fifty memters, and sandwiches recep- tions and other social features in among its working hours. Altogether, it is estimated that there are not far from 300 persons engaged in studying pure art in New York, at the Academy, the Leage, Cooper Union, and in private studios. For the benefit of any young aspirants who may be seized of the European fever, Igive Mr. Page’sadvive. He says: “If we are allowed to bring the Academy up to the rizht standard,—if it but regain the old position, which it can casily do,—it cannot be doubted that an American can study to better advantage here than anywhere elsc in the world. The beginner could not fora I long time ask for better advantages thau the Academy weuld offier, for no better instructor than Wilmarth can be'found. If the student study long and diligently from nature here, he will later go to Rome, Paris. Munich, or to any of the art cities of the Old World, so edu- cated and cultured that he can almost imperceptibly grasp the finest points of the treasures there. Butif he leave home too Young, or too carly in the conrse of his stu and becomne familiar and satiated with the "al- leries of the Old World tefore he can rightly appreviate them, he may never a an understanding of their delieate beautics. There is still annther consic tion wlich should not beoverlooked. While the youns artist is studyivg bis character is forming, and it would be much wiser for him and better for | the country if kic would remain at home until he is a thorough American, well - grounded in natioral hab'ts and principles.” It may be apropos to say that Mr. Shirlaw comes from his seven years in Munich a lhumugh German, in mauners, tastes, and art. A CURIOUS CHOIIIOUSE. Almost anybody will tell you where Old Tom's chop-house _is, but almost. nobody will say it is on Thames street. This is no marvel, for while Old Tom’s chops may amonut to something, Thames street doesn’t—not even to a respect- able alley. A man can cross it with three jumps, but he could no more pass another man on its sidewalk than one cart could pass another on its roadway. Thames strect scems to have been constructed for no other purpose than to malke an eutry to the chop-house, and the house and strect are ahout equal oddities, only a step re- moved from the progress of Broadw: et for- ever the same. Old Tom’s place is noted for chops, imported ales, and spilers' webs. Tt is more noted for the Jatter than auythinz elsc. The chops might fail if the cook should faint, the ales and liquors might be drawn low Lefore the ship came in, but nothing could happen to those precious webs while Old Tom is alive and about. There are pienty such curious places to be found in London, but there is only one in New Yorl, and it is safc to say in the country. Perhaps it is just as well. It there werc a hun- dred such. none of them probably wouid do a paying business. The present Old Tom, I sue- pect, lives quite as much on the reputation of his curiosity shop 25 he does on the merits of his meats and drinkubles. The room is dark and dingy. - An array of Gsh, flesh, and fowl grests your eyes on eatering. There are a half-a-dozen Tound tables, plain, and without doths. In view on one side are the lumbering barrels of beerandale. On the walls are coarse prints In the English style, records of ball-matches, fizhts, celebrated events. Ip a frame is a note #| from Mr. Bryant to Old Tom, on the latter's legacy to the youth of America. There is little doubt, nowérer, that its purchase would be re- ferred by him. , Nor would stich purchase, at a £ood price, be an unmerited reward for the artist’s great out- layin another direction. It is said that Mr. Page’s Shakspeare cost him mnearly as much money as be has realized from the sale of paint- fngs durinjz his whole career,—a carecr which be- gan over half a century ago, when as a boy of 11 he took thé first premium for sketch- ing. To study the death-masque of the Zreat poet it was nmury to go to Germany. To Germany Mr. Page went, and there remain- sd till he had made sketches of the masque which satisfied him, and which ‘jn lithographic copies threaten to revolutionize the formeridcas of Shakepeare's personal appearance. Then he made, or had made, plaster castsof all the more famous represcntations, not thinkmg to spare expense. His object was to paint the Shakspeare of the future. In lis own judg- ment, he has found a stronger head, so to speak, than cither the common or uncommon portraits of the past possess. If there is any loss in forchead or regularity of feature, there is cor- mpondlng gain in character and expression. * A BUSY STGDIO. In the same building, on Tenth strect, where 1 found Mr. Page,—a buflding which is as much the headquarters for artists here as Crosby Opera House was in Chicago before the fire,— is the busiest studio in the city. It belongs to Prof. L. E. Wilmarth, who nas gathered about Lima class of some tweaty puplls. Four or “ five of these occupy his rooms daily, the others come in to take their lessons and halggheir work criticised twice a week. This is th®only private class of its kind in New York. Foreign artists make it a custom to have their following of students, but the custom has not “obtained in this country. 1t was susgested to Prof. Wilmarth, perhaps, by bhis connection with the classes of the Acade- my. The success of the Antique and Lif¢ schools there uuder his charge was such 2s to meke it more easy to. get pupils than to find time to attend tothem. When the Academy found it neceseary 10 stop paying salaries, ac- cordingir, the Professor g“ey’:w:hu private pupilé all his spare hours. . He is a man of re- marksble energy and a monylus-ntuwd.lu thorough teacher. In addition to his own classes, he gives instruction at the ArtStn- o dent's League, does voluntary work along with other members’ of the Academy for the benefit of the classes thers, and withal kecps -+ working away 4t his own eascl. .

There are reminiscences of the days when the authors, pocts, and _editors of the metropolis were wont to gather around the little tables and make merry company. Hanging from the wall are shoes which—be it said with reverence, though they are but com- mon make and Congress style—were once worn, &0 you arc told, by James Fisk. But all these things, added to the collection of armoral trapoings, deers' horns, mummied bat, and huge { blocks of wood cut frum the oak which stood where the Castdn-Honse now stands, are as nothing in value comparcd to the marvelous weavings of the unmolested spiders. The reader of Scptimius would at ouce recall the German pliflosopher into whose spider’s den the Lero wss enticed. Here, however, thespidersare content with concealment. 1t is the boast of the place that since the first year of this century no vandal broom has the walls of their in- dustrious occupants. Ol ,Tom has been the successor of the original Joha Smith for thirty- 0dd years now, but s no more ready to sell a bushel of spiders’ web-work than he was in his first year. e has scen the march of business up-town, and felt it somewkat, too; but he could not move lis dingy room with its adormnents, and he was wisc ennu"h to see that without these thesoul of bis business would vanish. So there remains in the little strect Thames a single spot which offers strange contrast to cverything around it.—a spot where poets have drunk of ivspiration and ale, a spot where now the broker and the merd] 5 Wwith the stranger, seek thelr chops. The latter gocs. a5 much as anythinz, to pe the iuevitable query, *“Been to Onl Tom’s yet " AN EXAMPLE OF DESTITCTION.

At any rate, do not make her a wedding gift unless you have the money to pay for it. There was such a youth on Sixty-firsi street. Her relatives and his relatives were agreed in opposition, but this only hastened matters, as usual. The groom got into the good graces ot a dry-goods merdnnt more credulous than the average, who took stories abont the ownership ive at 5o fing | . been cugaged in painting the portralt of a beau- j T security for $215 worth of silkdress and lacce. place, and the days might have been felicitous till mow had not an unfecl- ing policeman dragged the young busbund away to the station on a charge of false pre- tences. The bride insisted on going along, and learned the story of her wedding-present as de- tailed by the wrathful merchant, who had fafled to find his debtor’s house or firm. Then she hastened forth to search for bail, but returned 100 lato to do more than take ;art in a tableau vivant entitled * Kissing Through the Bars.” When the merchant saw the gricf he had occa- sioned, his anger, turned to sympathy. Bat the Justicc was inexorable. He proposed to teach the young man that it wouldn't, do to get mar- ried and trusted for the \veddmg present every | day in the year.

EvaNsTON, March 13, 18 Sapig L. M. HISTORY OF A PICTURE. Two of the most celebrated artists the world has ever known dwelt in the same city. One delizhted in delineating beauty in all its graces of tint, form, and motion. His portraits were instinct with the charm of physieal vigor. The graceful, half-voluptuous outline of form a20d feature turmonized with del- jeately-blended tints. On his canvas the homeliest faces had an almost irre- sistible charm. The other found pleasure only in depicting weird and zloomy subjects. Above uil did be excel in pointing the portraits of the dying. The agonizing death-throe, the ghastly face and form, were all depicted with marvelous fidelity. There existed between these artists the most intense dislike. At length this dis- like culmmated. The beauty-loving artist had Connoisseurs pronounced it the viece of art that had ever been produced. His brother-artist was jealous of his fame and sought revenge. By bribing the keeper of the studio he gained ac- cess to the picture each night. At first he was content to only deaden the brilliancy of the complexion and eyes, efface the bloom from cheek'and lip,” and paint a shadow on cither check. ' Later, his strokes grew bolder and freer, and one morning the artist awole to find the entire outline of the portrait changed. He could searcely recognize in the emaciated form and hagrgard countenauce the glowing concep- tion ke had embodied. The patlid jace and ex- pressiozless eyes he had attributed to a lack of genuincness in his materials; but when the out- Tines were changed he suspected the cause, and indignantly dismissed the kecper. What the revengeful artist marred by a few. rapid strokes of his skillful brush was only restored by years of patlent industry. Reader, need we name the artisis,—tfealth, who paints the flowers and “grassy carpet” no less than the human form divine,—~Discase, the dreaded artist who revels among the ruins both of nature aud humanity,—and Carelessness, the keeper to whom Health often intrusts bis portraits 2 And is it zot the beauty of woman, the most ad- mired of ali the works which adorn the studio of Health, that Disease ofteitest secks to mar? ciitest strole of his brush upon the deli- auization leaves an imprint that requires much skill and paticnee to efaze.
