Thus it 13 that while J, in my lust letter, intended to pay undi- vided attention to the works exhtbited at the Palais de I'Industrie I was led to give your readers a de- scription of the Moral show on the ground floor of that building; and now to-day, on remembering that one of the statues I described (le Gaulots mourant) has been purchased by M. Maurice Richard for the sum of 10,000f., I Gnd that all sorts of marble must be spoken of, and firstly turn to that group which isto decorate the fayade of the new Opera House, It 1s to stand in the space that has already been filed by Carpeaux’ “Danse.” This latter production will retire from public gaze and hide all tne indignities ithas received within the building. ‘The substitute is by M. Gumery, and represents three bayaderes. One of the figures is taller than the two others; she delicately holds a thyrsus and # tamborine. The other two raise their arms in a graceful circle above their heads. Some portion of their bodies are not yet draped, but it is hoped no bottle of ink will be thrown at them, for the whole work is chaste, classic and admirably executed, . The French public has now for a whole week had the opportunity of judging the bronze and gilt groups at length, uncovered, on the top of the New Opera, We are treated to a view of this edtfice by small instalments at atime. Sometimes we are told to go and look at a vast plece of carved stone. that has come to light, at others it 1#a flue plece of railing, ora cariatide, so that the architect, much pitied Garnier, who 15 not known to exercise great pa- lence, has to hear his work criticised by bits—a great mortification unto any man, for the harmony of one conception oft depends on the ensembie.

The complaints laid at the door of Millet and Gumery in the execution stupendous works are that they ure put critics should remember that the nature of the metal employed in such huge proportions (gilt and pronze) ever does convey apparent heaviness when looked at from below. T adinit that the gilt 13 glaring, which constitutes the second complaint ; moreover, that bri would have steod out brighter against the blue sky; that gilt adds breadth and vol- uine to all cast figures.

It is that they are getting on wonderfully and will soon form a strong body to combat with tn peaceful put strenuous endeavor for front places. There are no less than thirty-flve works signed by Alwerican @ tists at the Palais.de MIndustrie, and with but few exceptions evidence ts here afforded that they will take high positions im the career they have chosen, ‘The great point gained by them is a visiwle striving after that perfection which art knowledge has taught them proceeds from the observation @f nature forti- fied by study and labor. None of the Americans here studying do their work leisurely; It is all hav ness and painstaking with earnest research, As Iam on the subject of encouragement to artists T wiilsay, en passant, that one of the great impeds- ments to be guarded against by administrators and directors of national academies is precisely thew tendegsy to confine talent within preserived limits, to centralize and thus fetter down, instead of acting as wise fathers do with thetr sons by intttating them gradually into higher atmospheres and even wider circles.

The Atalanta Cinb chartered the Fort Lee lor the accommodation of their guests, and shortly after four o'clock the party proceeded toward the Elysian Fieids, where a * vast crowd had congregated along the shore. The preitininaries having beeu sattsiactonly arranged, the three competitors got in line as under;— om commencement Losee was the fa at something like five to two, although considerabie rellunce seemed to be placed on Handy. At the start Losee was next the sore, Waterbury tn she centre, aud Handy on Uve outside. The contestants, to all appearance, were in admirable trim, and hav- ing araptd flowing tide in their favor, with every opportunity to bring the shore on the retarn, & splendid contest’ Was anticipated, At filly-lour minutes past four o'clock the word “Gor? was given, and the npetitors started off with @ hurried stroke, Losee slightiy im ad- vance, and Waterbury and Handy almost bow to bow. With considerabie prudence Losee rowed into the fair swing of the tide, and by @ rapid and energetic swoke quickly left his coinpetiwrs to struggle tor second place. Passing the oil ducks he was three boat lengtns ahead, Waterbury and Handy Meanwhile devising the best means to dodge @ tug that courteously stood su) until the three con- estauts had glided by. Losee turned the stakeboat first, ten seconds ahead of Handy, and putting on a spurt soon shot ahead, Waterbury now came up, with Handy a few hundred yards after the turn, bul notwithstanding their uuited efforts it was now evi- dent that Losee could not be overhauled, as he was now over one hundred yards in advance, Waterbury aud Handy had a neat little tit aiong the docks, but the latter judiciously avoiding the tide shot afiead tn rapid Style. After this the race was devoid of interest.
