Le autostrade e le strade secondarie in Surrey . - Pittura,dipinta. 107. Ritratto di signora Robinson-^J. Roberts.-a qualche distanza theeffect quasi lo stesso come il numero precedente ; ma su una più stretta ispezione,il colore non abbastanza così fittamente prevista. Dobbiamo fare giustizia a theExhibiting artisti dicendo che non ci sono peggio di loro dimensione nello spazio di questi Dulcineas. 129. Il rinforzo di fagiani-S. Elmer, A.-nessun artista può venire nearerto oggetto egli tenta. I pesci, gli uccelli e frutta sono come exquisitelyfine come qualsiasi dei maestri Elemish. La Galleria Nazionale manca un Elmer : i collezionisti privati forse più fortunati

Highways and byways in Surrey . — Painting, painted. 107. Portrait of Mrs. Robinson—^J. Roberts.—At some distance theeffect nearly the same as the preceding number ; but on closer inspection, the colour not quite so thickly laid on.

Elmer, A.—No artist can come nearerto the object he attempts. His fish, his birds, and fruit are as exquisitelyfine as any of the Elemish masters. The National Gallery lacks an Elmer : private collectors maybe luckier. Mr. J. E.

Wrecclesham lies to the south-west, almost on the Hamp-shire border, and still makes green pottery of patterns whichwere favourites in the sixteenth century. Further south runsthe tiny Bourne, the stream by which Cobbett and his brothershad so good an education, as we have just seen, in the
