Pittsburg has a school of design, which, though not very successful hitherto, has now quite flattering prospects for the coming season. —Mrs. Colburn ts engaged upon a ltfe-size Portrait of the Right Reverend Bishop Smith, of Mississippi, for the University of the South, of which institution he ts the chancellor. — The second annual exhibition of the Phila delphia Society of Artists, to be held at the Academy of Fine Arts in that city, will be opened to the public on Monday, November ist, and continue until December 6th, inclusive. — Miss Rangom’s portrait of Alexander Ham. llton gives great satisfaction to the officials of the Treasury Department, for which it was ited. Miss Ransom has been called to her ane ro on by the arte pices ot her mother, but expects, we hear, to reoccupy her studio here during the coming winter. sed — Max Weyi expects to retura from Earopo some time in the early part of the coming win- ter. So far, we believe, he has sent nothing home to show what he has been doing while ab:cad, but for all that he has been none the less busy in the rather dry work of drawing and in making studies and sketches for -future us Tn this way he has accumulated much valuab’ —, which he will make available here- after. —The main exhibition room of the Corcoran Gallery has been greatly improved by the recent tinting of its walls, but the improve- ment would have been still greater and the tfeet better bad the color been made deeper and richer, If such terms may be used, it 1s too thin and weak to make a proper background for ihe splendid works of art hung against it. Ii does not help them, and they fa turn make it seem the poorer. —The inevitable has happened. A consign- ment of goods from the great Demidoff-Donato sale last spring Is advertised in New York. ‘The only wonder about the matter is that they bavn’t turned up long ago; and it is safe to say that a seeker after bric-a-brac can’t go into an old trumpery store or attend a sale of second-hand furniture, etc., for the next fifty years without running across choice lots trom this famous collection. "Twas ever thus, —Mr. Ulke, who recently sent to the Treasury Department his portratt of the late Ion. George M. Bibb, who was Secretary of the Treasury under President Tyler, has just completed one or the late D. W. Middleton, so long clerk of the Supreme Court of the United States, and is now engaged on one of Mr. William S, Stickney, Whose recent death 1n Colorado is still fresh in the mind of our readers. It is full-length, life size, and represents the subject standing. ‘The attitude Is at once spirited, yet easy and. grace- ae and the likeness promises to be very falth- ful. — The New York Art Students’ League will open its classes for the sixth season next Mon- day. This school has been maintained through the past five years by the younger artists and students of New York, for the purpose of se- curing the advantages of a thorough academte ccurse of study ofart, and giving to the student the opportunity of drawing from the antique, and drawing. painting, and modeling from the living model, every day in the week, morning, afternoon and evening, for elght months in the Year, together with tnstructions tn artistic anat- omy, perspective and composition. —J.Q. A. Ward, the sculptor, is modeling a statue, of herole size, of the revolutionary gene- ral, Daniel Morgan, the hero ot Cowpens, It 13 to be cast in bronze, and placed on a column some sixteen feet in height, at Spartanburg, 8. C, The unvelling will take place on January 17, i8s1, the centennial anniversary of the battle. The soldier stands in heroic attitude, with his head well up, his lett, hand raised to his breas’. his left foot advanced, and with his sword held downward and outward in his right hand. He isclad in the picturesque, fringed huntsman’s costume of the riflemen of his command. The height of the ligure fs eight and a half rect. — So well has Tie Magazine of Art been re- ceived on both sides of the Atlantic that its publishers, Messrs. Cassell Petter Galpin & Co., have concluded to increase its size, The price also to be advanced from 25 cents to 40 cents per copy, but this advance will be more than Met not only in the increased quantity and im- proved quality of its contents, but also in more and better iliustrations than heretofore. The growing interest in art in the United States is foretbly shown by the fact that no less than five well conducted and profusely illustrated monthly or semi-monthly publications devoted entirely to art are now liberally supported in this country, whereas only a few years ago nothing of the kind was in existence here. — Williams & Everett have lately had on ex- hibition In their fine gallery in Boston the three best paintings of Mr. Frederick A. Bridgman, the distinguished young American artist who Las won such a wide aud favorable reputation tn Europ® during the past half-dozen years. The first of these is his famous picture “The Funeral Rites of a Mummy on the Nile,” which was exhibited in the Salon in 1877 and in the Exposition Universetle in 1878, and for which he elved the gold medal. The second, entitled “Royal Pastime at Nineveh,” was exhibited in ibe Salon tn 1878 and in the Royal Academy the year following. For thishe was awarded the cress of the Tregion of Honor. The third, the “Procession of the Sacred Buil-Apis,” was his Salon picture for last year, and is by many re- pe a8 cqual to the‘other two, it not really he best of the magnificent trio. We hear, by the way, that Mr. Bridgman is cone home next month with his wife and child. His last visit to this country was in 1S7é, when he came over for a short time, but now he comes to stay. Such at least is his present intention, in case he receives such encouragement as his merit and reputation are entitled to, and on this point there ought not to be any doubt. —The late Mr. Sanford R. Gifford left in his Studio, at the time of his death, pictures, sketches and studies valued at $30,000. Many of these are in process of framing for the forth- coming memorial exhibition of his works, which 15 to be opened In the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, about the mid- dle of this month. Owners of pictures by M Gifford in all quarters are responding to Inv tations to lend them for this purpose, and the exhibition promises to be one of the’ most in- teresting and meritorious of the kind ever held in tbls country, though not a few persons ex- TESS & disitke to part with their pictures for so fog ‘@ period as six months, the term for which the exhibition is to continue. One of the latest If not the very last of the large and im- portant works completed by Mr. Gifford was a view of the Parthenon, a subject which gave to the artist full scope, both for his careful draw- ing and his admirable management of light and Coto. This tne picture would make in every yay @ Most fitting addition to the treast the Corcoran Galiery, which, by the w 3 of ay, as S test strangers will probably be surprised to lear lias so far never had anything trom Mr, ‘d's easel. A new and important painting by Gerome has recently been brought to the United States. It fs entitled or at least represents “ The Call to Prayer—an oriental subject, which has once berore been illustrated by the'pencil of the same artist. The present picture 1s, however, larger and more {iteresting in every way tian the ther, which Is no doubt familiar to most readers through engraved and photographed covits, Like the former, it shows a Muezzin on the balustraded minaret of a mosque, fa the act of prociaiming the ezan which summons the Initutul followers of the prophet to thetr canon- teal devottons; but the range of vision here 1s Wider and the view much more comprehensive ard sausfactory than tn the other.

The quickened Ilfe, the awakening impulses, the de- sire for distinction, originality, must have a vehicle, aud why not find it ia dress? Natur- ally itis made such a medium, and this gives us the ti finite variety which is the distinguish ing feature of modern fashion, The every day Loliets of one woman may take her from the extremes of grave to gay, from lively to severe, yet not be out of character and not excite any particular attention. Her pretty morning toflet, simple yet coquet- Ush, of pale blue cashmere, we will say, with its lengthwise cascade of tine yellowish lace, 1s exchanged about 11 o'clock for a walking cos- tume of satin and jet, and this agatn, when she returns, for@ trained dinner dress of silk em-. broidered with flowers in natural colors and trlomed with fringe.

It is quite common to see mothers on the Promenade and in the cars with two or three children, the whole party dressed in dark blue or invistble green flannel. No trimming, only picturesque hats and large collars of coarse lac> or Madetra embroidery for the little ones. Tho children’s hose are the same color as their Gresses—there 1s no show—Instead, the utmost siinplielty, but how distinguished this stzapliei- tyis!

There ts a great deal of courage and daring exhibited in these different modes of dress. Imagine the sensation that must have been ore- ated by the first woman that wore a “bang” ({n these latter days!) Previous to that time the high forehead, as an evidence of lotellect, was obligatory. The hair used to be pulled hack from It, tortured to prevent its growing upon it. and singed off when it would grow In spite of all efforts to the contrary.

These and kindred changes and innova- Uons show growth in at least one art element— the willingness to sacrifice mere prettiness and what 1s considered becomingness to use, con- venience and the larger idea. The tirst lesson an actress has to learn is to extinguish her personality in that of the character she assumes, and the greater and stronger and wider her 1épetoire and the more perfectly she is able to siuk her own idengity in that of the-part she assumes the more perfect artiste she is.

It 1s easy to see, therefore, how wide the rahge becomes for those ladies to whom money is nO object, who have a passion for dress, as some have for china and bric-a-brac, and make a study of It.

COLORS AND FABRICS. ‘The colors of the season are bronze, gold and rbet. There is hardly anything into which ‘hese do hot enter, and the quite new materials show these shades in different combinations almost exclusively. There are tine bronze armure cloths checked off by delicate clustered nes of silk in a flat, antique embroidery stitch, one way garnet, the other gold, making a plaid nearly & quarter of a yard square. The beauty and elegance of this combination cannot be described. But who is to wear such a fabric?

AUTUMN CAP3, HATS AND BONNETS. Caps are now regularly added to the list of hats and bonnets which make up the choles in fall and winter head-gear, and as they are the novelty they must have the first place. The mncst “taking” of the new cap styles is the “Tam O'Shanter,” which consists of a large, full Irregular crown set iu a band which must be the side of the head above the ears and {rizzes. The eap requires very little trim ning.
