including The Lord Mayor oj Liverpool, by Gerard
Chowne. In figure subjects in oils the principal con-
tributors were P. Wilson Steer, Sir Luke'Fildes, R. A.,
Gilbert Rogers, J. W. Dawbarn, P. F. Gethin, and
W. Alison Martin, whose Blue Bird was notable for
its richness of colouring. Robert Fowler was best
in his Carnarvon under a brilliant rainbow effect.
J. Hamilton Hay had several poetic compositions
with refined low-toned colour schemes. Miss
Mary McCrossan produced brilliant effect in
her Group of Boats. Braich-ty-du, Nant Ffrancon,
by James T. Watts, R.C.A., and Bad Farming, by
John Finnie, R.E., held a leading position amongst
the few water-colours. The daintily executed

LIVERPOOL.—The Liver-
pool Academy, after eight
years of wanderings in
other parts of the city,
did well on the occasion of its last
exhibition to return to its old gallery
in the Royal Institution. Having
exercised more rigid care in the
selection of works presented by its
members, and having shown more
attention to tasteful arrangement in
hanging, the result was the best
exhibition for many years. The
President, Mr. Geo. Hall Neale, sent
several excellent portraits, T. Paul
Ry lands. Esq., and John Gars tang,
Esq., being two of the chief ex-
amples. Other portraits of distinc-
tion were those by R. E. Morrison,
J. Hamilton Hay, Mrs. Maud Hall
Neale, W. B. Boadle, Frank T.
