Ww. Barnes, Caseer), Art Notes, Mr. W. HH. Rinehart, the distinguished Amer- jean sculptor, is in the city engaged in model- ing a bust of Mr. W. W. Corcoran. Thishe will reproduce in marble on his return to Rome, whither ke goes in a few weeks, taking with him, we are pleased to learn, quite a nomber of commissions. Mr. Rinehart’s ideal statue of Clytie, which has been on exhibition in Balti- more for some time, and whieh is regarded by many good judges as one of the best pieces of sculpture produced in modern times, has re- cently been purchased by a gentleman of that city, who intends to present it to the Peabody Institute. ng it here Mr. Rinehart is staying with his |; Mr. MeGuire, on E street — We hear that a sale of pictures by several, if not all, of our local artists will shortly be held at the auction rooms of Messrs. Latimer & Cleary. Itis understood that Poole, Weyl an ‘Turner will each contribute some of their best examples, and it is likely that nearly all the others will have something ready im time, in- cluding Mr. Howard Morton, who, by the way. has several nice bits now ex view at Lamb's. — Since his late sale, the walls of Barlow's gallery look comparatively bare, but it will not bea very long time, he assures us, until they shall be made even more attractive than ever. The most notable things to be seen there just now are Moran’s striking water color drawing of the hot springs on Gardner's river,—a char- acteristic type of Yellowstone scenery,—and Mrs. Greatorex’s exquisite pen and ink sketch- es. The firstnamed is so surprising and peca- Mar in itseffect as to attract constant attention without the aid of newspaper notice; but the latter are so modest and unpretending in char- acter and surroundings that they might easily be overlooked by the general observer unless in- ction be particularly invited. v therefore, that we are doing a fa the public and the artist, in asking and lovers of the beautiful to give them an e: amination. Meritorious as they all are in thei way, many of them have the added value representing in the most accurate manner, with a poetically artistic treatment, scenes and objects that are fast passing away. 's beautiful view on Rock Creek, lately at Markriter’s, has been added to the MeGuire coliection, where it is, as it deserves to be, in most excellent company. The hiatus thus caused at M. filled, however, artist—2 Virginia, — which bas many of the best points t charac- terised the Rock Creek landseape.

Carefinl studies for this picture were Mr. Wiles trom the tower at the So!- t's Home and other gavorable points of view rly two years agé, and the beginnings of it which we saw last fall promised a great xuecess, which we judge from the tone of the New York papers has been fully realized. We trust this picture will some time be placed ou exhibition here, where its merits ean be proper- ly appreciated; and indeed it ought te be kept here, either on the wallsof the Corcoran gallery or on those of some of our wealthy men of taste. — Mr. H.

A copy of the Governor’s order was sent to the state prison, with a demand for an immediate surrender, which had the effect to cause the capitulation of the Lieutenant Gov- ernor, who said he yielded to military necessity ‘and superior force. The new warden was then laced in possession. There is a strong pro- bility that Governor Bradley will call an extra session of the Legislature for the purpose of impeaching the Lieutenant Governor.

A dispatch tothe New York World says that Earl Derby is trying to torm a cabinet, with himself as premier, and Disracli as chancellor of the exchequer, but his success is thought doubtful.

It he accepts he will probably finish up the business of the session by the end of June and then dissolve the House.

Lonpon, March 15.—The Weekly Economist in its issue this morinng says a ramor was cur- rent last night that the Earl of Derby had yielded to the request of the conservatives and would undertake the task of forming a new cabinet. The Spectator, also a weekly paper, reports that the Earl of Derby will take the iaoroc yee but says he has determined to appeal tothe country. The London morning journals are generally of the opining that the conservatives will settle all questions in rela- tion to the ministry to-day, Disraeli Backs Out, Loxpon, March 15, 3 Bi m.—Disracli has declined to accept office. He waited upon the neen at Buckingham Palace this morning to unounce his decision and explain to Majesty the reasons which impel him thereto.

A note left in the bank stated that he had destroyed all the special —— and bills receivable, $34,000 of which belonged to Mr. Lamberton, and con- sisted of government bonds. The amount ab- solutely destroyed is not yet known. It is stated that Anderson was carrying a large amount of overdrafts for the accommodation of his per- soual friends, unauthorized by the bank; that the concern was gon to change hands, and had been requested to have the books and a counts in complete order at a certain date, which would expose the irregularities. The bank loses heavily, but every conlidence is felt in its seeurity. erick Grocr, whe gots up books af bio ick Greer, w! up 8 ry first contracting that the subjects of the abetehs shall pay roundly for copies, has sued Jay Gould and George Crouch, complaining that wo be ge with him to buy ten copies of his books at $150 a copy, and that they had not p id him. The case came up before Judze Loew in the common pleas special term, on a motion by Jay Gould to amend his answer; his first answer was a general denial. He states that he subsequently ascertained that he did order ten copies himself, and that Crouch sab- sequently —— to take ten more for him without his knowledge; that when the claim was made on him he paid $650 for thirteen copics as a compromise of the second claim. An davit was offered on behalf of Greer, deny- ing any such compromise.
