Egy ptlen Art- Dr. Abbott's Collection at the Stuyvesant Insurte It is m fact little creditable to (he intellestasl tastes of the community amongs whom we live that a collection like that of Dr. Abbott should meet with such litide an. couragement Unseurpsssed for the vartety and fatere | of the curious relics of which it fs composed—the evi. dences of an extinct civilization of which we have but a faint and imperfect idea—ve can conceive no greater mental treat than that of » few boura passed io their inepection, Unfortunstely, but few seem to share this opinion, if we might judge from the paucity of the atten dance that we have s:en on the several occasions that we have virited it, Had it been an exhibition of human deformity, or come counterfett moastrosily, all New York would have focked to behold it It is diffiev it to socount for this indifference, It seems to us that there can be no more interesting subject for atudy-and contemplation than these memorials of » people whose bistorical records have almost entirely perished, and of whose intelectual progrsse we can only form an opiaion from such fragmeutary evidence as is to be found in museums, Collections such as Dr. Abbett’s, however, have a higher purpose than that of the gratia. sation of a mere idle curiosity. They present us with conclusive proo’s of the suthenticity of the sacred writings—proots tangible and irrecuuabla—such as must brirg conviction home to the mind of the most obstinate esptic, They discover to us, too, the first germs of Greek and Romen art, which tock their riss im the gross my tho logical covcepticns of this tingolar people, and which, when transplanted to a mors congenial soil, gradually expanded into the ideal aud p-etic féms that are so much adwired at the present day. Ic orcer thae we may thoroughly appresiate the merits of Dr. Abbott's collection we mnst frst become acquaint: ed with the leading characteristics of Egyptian art. To do this we murt revert to its origin, Ki That the arts of paintirg and scnlpture vers known in ‘the earliest ages mast be evident to all who reflect upon the love of imitation inherent in our nature, and the nwmberless accidental circumstacces that must bave re. vesled to man their primitive elements. The populsr be lief that the Gzet incident which led to the ditcovery of the rnciments of the art of painting was the tracing by # girl of her lover’s shadow on the wall, may be aosepted 98 & type of the simple chances which first condaoted the human mind into the path of imitstion, The love of art is, in fect, a natural passion, which will ind a meaas of developement, wore or less material or imaginative, eccord ing to the intellectual eaparities of ths differeat racus Thel nO evinces the necessity fur its gratification in the painting anc tallowing of his person, the Brahmioia the decoration of his temples, and the Arab in the pie- turerque rplendor of his atiire. A still stronger tacea tive may be traced in the natural anxiety implanted in the breasts of every warlike peopls to parpetaate the records of their great events by some more graphic and enduring modo of deliceation than (hp imperfect symbols employed in hieroghyphioal writings For a brief period the latter medium of expression sufficed; but the progress of civilization, ard the glowing desire to tranamit to pos terity the linexments as well as the dee is of their heroes, soon inducted them into a partial knowledge of the me. chanirm of the arts. In this more advanced stage the predominant suparati. tions 0° the epoch naturally suggested @ wider field for the exercise of the imagimation, Tre arts of imitation besame subservient to, or rather impressed with, the reli glous characteristics of the different Taces, and were ad- vanced or retarded by their peculiar influences. In pro portion as their mythology assumed more or less of a poetical character did the resources of art rise to the level of their requirements. Thus, whilst the Egyptians, ow ing to the gross and msterisi natare of taeir worship, made domparatively bnt littls progress, the Greeks in- aspired Ly s more idea! end fanciful theology, advanoad ra pidly towards perfection. Tn considering the ivfuence of differant forma of wor- suip om the progress of the arta it wiil, ia the first place, de neverrary to obtains clear insight into the religions ideas by which they wore affected. Ths mythology of the snelents wasrimply s language of the imsginstion,through which the prevsilirg superstitious..ef. ibe. period fourd exprescios, aud which, in the hands of-a erafty Priesthood, soon sssume’ # certsin form and concisten cy. No system that could have been devised eduld have been better calculated to develope the first germs of art and to stlnulate them into « healthful ac tiviiy, The mythology of the Ezyptisue, howsyir, can hardly be :aid to have conferred any real benefit on art, the gross nature of the objects selected as reprosentations of thetr deities, (em>ractng nearly the whole zoology of the country,) and the a:bitrary regulations imped by the priesthood, in o:der to preserve the immutable charac- ter of their religious symbols, having an inevitable teaden- cy to cramp snd restrain the ioventive faculties ot the artist. Tho same revere Jegiclation fettered the expan- sion of tasie by the prescription of an unvarjing style of contume, opposed to all our modern notions of grace and freedom, T> such an extent was this ecclesiastical des potiem carried, that we are told by Diodorus that the Egyptian ecu)ptors were not allowed to judge of the pro- portions of a statue by the eye, but bad a rettled acale of paris laié Gowa for them, Thus religion, whish might bave allorded & wide fivid for the exercise of the genius and fancy of the artist, and contributed, as in other coun trier, to the cevelopement of the higher principles of aré iisolf, vas revtered the means of enslaving its professors and cf crushing their noblest impulses. Although the rebglous monuments of the Kgyptians are not of & nature to impress us with a very high notion of {heir artistic capabilities, we should be in arror in ar riving at the conclueion that their other werks were de- void of merit. In their histories! aubjscts they displeyed 8 Gegree of boldnera and freedom which showed that they could occasionally escape from the cooventional tram. mele imposed upon them, and avail themselves of tho inspirations derived from the study of nature. Whilat in the former we observe tho very worst foatares of their style, particularly when the subject involves ® uaion of bestia) and human formas, ia the latter we cannot help ad- miring the spirit with which the figures are grouped and designed. The advantage deiived by the artist fiom the Greater latitude allowed him in the treatment of secular ojecta is no less remarkable, when ho endeavora to Gelineate the figures of the lower animals, divested of thos typical adjuncts with whish Superstition has ia. vested them. Son.e of them are wonderfully nataraland graceful; whilst the figure of man, tho noblest object in creation, is represented by a atiifaess and heaviness of outiine and a deficiency of expression that exslade all {dea of intellectual superiority, This {aperiect asquaia tanve with the anatomy of the human figure mey bs ia some degree accounted for by the faot that the Egyptiaas Beithe: cultivated thore amusements nor adopted those habits which rencered the theatre of the Greeks and the circus of the Romans such valuable schools for the stady of form and expression, Yut rere they ths first paople who attempted with any degree of success sculptured re. presentations of historical scenes involving action and complicated movement. From aa early period their monuments were ornamented with elaborate carrings and bas reliefs of the battles in which their kings had been victorious, and one of their compositions we are told conteined no less than eight hundred figures. Thus art, when their hitroglyphieal writings had perished, stepped in to the aid of history, and rescued from obll- vion the recor¢s of their achievements. In these few general observations we have enteavored toimpart s popular interest to the subject, by placing before our readers thore characteristics of Egyptian art whieh are so strikicgly exemplified io the varied contents of Dr. Abbot.’s collection, but which might otherwise ap- Peer obscure and unintelligible to those who have not had an opportunity of studying them. We will now pro- ceed to notice a few of the more prominent features of the collestion itself, which appear to us to illustrate our re- marks, Let us take first the large limestone alnb described as in the catalogue as No, 11, It is covered with besuti- fully carved representations of the human figure; but ia Lhe rameness of the attitudes, the stiffuess of the anatomi- cal outlines, and the uniformity of the costumes and draperies, we reccgpise the mischievous cousequences of the atten pt made to subject art to the trammela of con- vertions! rules. ‘When freed from their restraints, as we have already shown, the natural genias of the Ezyplian artiste was capable of achieving, if not as perfect resulte as their modern successors, yet a mush closer approximation to ngture than we are in the habit of givem them eredit for. What, for instance, can be more anatrmtes!!y correct oF lifelike In treatment than the cast of the bronze Heard, (No. 407.) It is not only aim/rable for its correct representation of the objec! delineate), but ft presenta some peoulisrities ia the execution that excite our ag tonishien’. J: is nota cast taken from the cend reptile, bat isevicently modeled from lif, the chest being ex- panded an’ fullof air, avd the sbtoorval massies con- tracted. asi! in the act of drawing » Cop in-piration When we consiter the difficulties a tending even the im- Poved groups of modern art ant the imperfect means of execution porssased by the Ryypiion statuary, we sre etrock with admiration at the mwuits of a work which leave co little to criticize. Thatthe Egyptians were not devoid of the vit comica, and bad the power of expressing it by the pencil, we havea curious proofin a caricature paiote! on one of the limestone slabs, (No, 743.) Even in thove early days we find that the democratic spirit had alrox’y begun to manifest itself, for the shaft of the painters wit is direst ed sgeinat royalty itself, Tho earicsture represents = liow ceated upon the throne asa king, and a foxes a high priost making an offering to him of # leek, a plucksd govresnd afeather fan, The most curious objects Im the gallery, perhaps, area covpls of ascred bulls, (Apis) which were found iaw tomb at Dashen, ia the Lybian desert It was om the west side of the necropolis of Memphis, close to the same epot that a French travell‘er—M.

Wera this record to ba tianemitted to posterity with the debris of our civiliza- tion it would gives bigh idea ef our intellectual pro. grees, We copy, forthe benefit of oar reaters, a few of sta more critical inscriptions: — © Delicious ’* “Much delighted with the mumzies, especisily with the ove that has pot the rea top.” “ Better than nigger ingiog ” “ Bortop beats all the mommies,’ “Better than Dan Rice.’? “Please send vp cne of your coffias, as I havo a lean cat to embalm,’? ‘Ard I also haves lean ags ’? All comment on the good tacts ani intelligencs that dictated theze effusions would be supe: flu ous on our part.

O1 the very day the homicide was committed he fount her associating herself with a sailor fo porter houses. His prasion became excited; aal walla lsforing under its in- fluence, and blinded with rags, he sprang at tae very ob- ject of his affvetion, and atruck ber # blow. It was an voforturate one a9 she died from its effects, and now he is mace to pay the forfeit of his orn extetencs for the life he ao eummazily dectroyed. Hoare was tried and convicted in November last snd sentenced 10 December, to be hanged on Frilay, the 27th instant. conviction his frieads have not besn idle, Nomerows have been the petitions oiroulated through. out the city and elsewhere for cignaturos, asking the Executive of ihe State for a commutation of sentence. All the petitiens hove been, we learn, submitted wo Gov- ernor S»pmour, who bas tsidim reply that it was a case in which he could not foterfere, and that the law must teke its course.

But, notwithstanding this, Hoare makes a comparison between his cass and that of DeCorn, He ernnot couceive the distinction be ‘ween the two carts, DaCorm destroyed the life of a human being, aud reosived a punishment of two year#and ten months in the State prison, whils, fo a similar offence, he in s( judged the forfeiture of bis lite, Hosre asserts most earnortly thas he cannot thick ths people wish to have his life, He does not consider him- elf a murderer; he never intended to bill the woman —it was the act of an unguarded moment—the blow was given and the remit proved fatal, Ho wirhes to be understood that he does not fear death, but only the mo¢e of procuring it; and canaot imagines why he thould be dcomed to suffer death on m gallows, when bis iotentions were never to caure the death of the un. forturate woman, whore life he always considered as Gear to him as his own, Bines his rentence Dr. Covil, the prison phynisiau, has been in the habit of allowing him four ounces of bracdy dally; bat within the last two week Hoare has declined taking avy more, expressing a Cotermiration vot t> take any stimulating drink, but to meet hia death firmly, un der the consoling influence of his holy religim, the Ro- man Catholic faith, There are other criminals charged with capital cflenoes ewaitirg trial, In the first place there ia Henry Carcell— commenly derignated the Dey strest murderer—he bas now beew confined fo the Tombs for upwards of three years. Dwing that time he was tried and convicted, and rentenced to be hangid; but the judgmont was set aside by the Conrt of Apponls, ands new trial gr: The absence, however, of two impcertant witnesses prevents the District Attorney from brieging the osse up for s se- cond trial. In addition to the abovenamed, there are three Irish laborers, named Hugh O'Jornor, Denis (’Counor, and John O'Connor, eaid to be brothers, charged with tie myrder of Michael Conroy, who was shot by one of the O’Connors in Fourteenth strect, on the 17th of December Isat, Thoy have not yet been indicted, Jeremish Lane, alias Fox, is also a prisoner on « Cor- oner’s commitment, charged with the murder of « (er- man ramed William Heyer, on the 26th day of Disember, by fracturing his skull with » cart rung, during an affray ant the corner of Fim and Deene streets.

WasunaTon, Jan. 20, 1854. The Administration and the Missourt Compra mise. You will have perceived, from yesterday's article in the Union, and the still stronger one in to-day'a paper, that the administration is opposed to the re- peel of that portion of the Miseouri bill of 1820 which excludes slavery from every portion of the territory situate north of 36 degrees 30 minutes of lntitade ‘The Unvon admits that the Missouri line confilcta with the compromise of 1851; but it has not the courage to belp to put an end to the conflict, It wishes the Missouri live repealed; but it does no wish to renew the slavery agitation. Ie it, then, afraid of the slavery agitation being renewed? Has General Pierce so Little confidence in his new friends that he is afraid of putting them to the proof? Docs he apprebevd that the free soilers, whom he hse taken to his heart, recipients as they are of his pa- tronage, will still shirk every proposition which cam adi strength to the compromise and put an end to the prospecta of fanatics and political gamblers wha us} be silent Ld that they may make themselves t notay fi ifthe Missouri line is repealed then there is no more chance of renewing the slavery agitation now or bereafter. The Union admits this; and yet Gen. Pierce is afraid te try it. Ii the comprom'se is not strong now when shal! it be stronger? If General Pierce refured to stake his popularity on ® principle which he recegnizes as just and proper who shall do it sfter him?’ Is be only the fearless mariner who is ready to command the fleet in port, but un- willing to put tosea when he perceives a cloud im the horizon ? The Unvon is sorry that the authors of the com- premise did not the Missouri line. It really shed crocedile tears over that mistake. When the compromise was first launched in Congress there was not a Northern Senator besides Cass and Dickin- Pub.ie heen rectified, end it is not halfas it now to ee the Missonri line as it was three years ago to kill “the Wilmot.” But there are men who willing to eat a dinrer when cooked, and even their friends tu share in the tendered hospitaiicy, who bbe i be courage to put salt in the soup for fear of spoiling it.
