Mi. THOMPSON AND THE ASSESSORS. Nearly ten years ago Mr. Thompson, although a Bostonian, and the son and last descendant of an old boston family, turned bis buck on tho city with @ firm though not expressed determination never to set his foot im it again, ‘'ui8 Tesoive he strictly atnered to, and iaough he lived months, alumest years, 10 Sa.em, Metord, Camoridge aud Oller ne guvoring places, and his properésy consisted Of real esiate 1 almost every sireet, yet he never once permitted himself io Visit Boston or even Lo speak oj doing 80. He ceased vo Know Lhe nome ot Nis youth, to corresvond with his irienas, and many a cllizen bas found by exper.- ence how strict Were his orders (and how sunctiy complied With) Co bis busiaess agent thas noone Should be posted of lis whereabouts, He wanted neither Co see nor hear of a place where, although ne liad spent tae best part of bis lie, he cousiaered he iad &.80 been subjected to Silvnis, Want Of consider- ALON, and, I his OpuiOD, positive abuse. The cause Oi Vis leellug arose, 16 18 belleved, principally Irom trouoie With Lie assessors Upon questions of ‘taxes, and those who best knew the lactis cousider lus grounds lor leehng as he did nov wholly Without foundation. From the day he left the city he ceased to bay pictures, The grist lost a goou Imevd, and picture venders missea their best customer, The enure collechon was stowed away, anc irom that day to this hug been securely guaided from every eye until within the past mont, Mr. 4. Harvey Loung, tie weil Known portrait painter, und director of the Fme Aris Exmoition of Boston Athenwum, was emproyed, by order of the execuirix, to examine and catalogue the collection, TUB ONLY PERSON WHO HAS SEN THE GAL. ERY. Mr. Young 1s probably Wie only living man who has seen ail these pictures. They are stured in Pul- lon street, a most unpromisiny place, and a bulid- ing Which DO one Would suspect of beg sucn a repository. Mr. Loung ASSserss Lal, althongh he had io his youth some Knowledge of tuem, and had hin- geil Contrinyied oue Or tWo ellurts, yet when ne entered the vauding and fouad suc iminense pties, closely packed one ugains: another, tier altertier, and Noor above floor, be Was agaast, and, aitnouzsh de- young to the work all tue spare time witicu the demands of his profession allowed, and having all we assistance he required, yet weeks were uecded before any thing like @ list could be preparea. VALUED AT HALF A MILLION. Biersiadt, the artist, who knew kr, Thompson well, and of Whose own paintings there ave some dozen of more, €X presses an OpIBion that & similar collection cannot now be put together for bali a milion doliars, No bail i Boston is suMcienily lacge lo exaibit them. Some idea may be conveyed by the fact when they were removed to the.r pre- sent resting piace tie actual cost oF cartiage was AOU B00, and In Making arrangements Lo remove the collection to New York, where it will shortly be taken, not less than ten freigut cars will be required, even if packed close without boxing or the waste of aby superiuons room, Upon the catalogue made by Mr, Young aro found signed pictures of all schools, many unquestioned or.ginals by such artists as Sir Charies Bastiake, chomas Luwreuce, Sit Joshua Reynolds, Sir Peter Lely, Godtrey hueller, Ailan Ramsey, George Mor land, Gaimsvorough, Phidips, Hogarth, Meadows, Huty, Turner, Nastnyth, Rumney, Opie, Copley, Stew- art, Newton and Stoddard, of the Engush school, and Boucaer, Lumbinet, be Bufe, Mignard, Karon, burnet, Isapey, be Dreux, of bhe French, Taian, Duteh and Germau are represeutea by Sctudont, Guercluo, Tenters, Seebach, Paul Zuccarelit, Van- dyke, Van Ostade, Diay, Boucher, Van Maas and many others equally weil known, Whose names have been made iamous and origiual pictures from whose hands have become rare, ‘there are a large number of copies and ortginals by the mose celebrated artistes of the Nileenth, sixteenth and seventeensh centuries, such ag Titan, Kemoranat, Rubeus and otters. Many piocures of the beauties of Boston and of American society are buried beneath the weight of superimcumbent pievures and wilt be brougat to the air and sunshine once more. AMERICAN AR(ISTS—THE SLEEPING BEAUTY. American arfisia are jargely represented, and Many Ol ine early Works of wwe Dow famous may be found here, some of the.n giving te ecariy promise of genius now at its zenith. ‘The names of Sully, Inman, Bierstadt, Durand, Brown, Peate, Hart, birch, Doughty, and nearly every one who was knowm ten years ago, may be found largely repre- sented on the catniogue. Ibe very last picture added to the collection was the “Sleepmeg Beauty, ’?
