      shape comes P Goethe is well illustrated , but this is the most imaginative , intellectually comprehensive , and beautiful picture in the series . Landscape painting brings another evidence of pre-eminence , lscnaggeny ' s " Harvest Scene" is a very summer rhyme ; the young mother is binding poppy wreaths for her child , the men throwing the bundles ot corn on the cart , the horses stand shaking music from their bells , and the sun makes a " lane of beams" through the piled stacks . In the "Pier of Ostend during a Storm" Achenbach seems to feel himself a storm-faend , sweeping up the waves into the tempest clouds , with the full rage of the mighty wind . Kabreuth rives the thunder clouds over Martmstrand with a lightning flash illumining the rocks , the lake , the blades of g / ass ; and in the Canton Uri , Seiffert closes the blue lake , the " ships making ghosts below . " with the protecting mountains and majestic pines . For architectural effect Husengelfug's " Cloisters of Walkenrind" is not only the finest painting in the Dublin Exhibition , but is one that can scarcely be surpassed . It is a winter sunset , the snow lying thick on the broken walls

      and ruined porch , and reflected on the groined roof of the aisle , the wes tern sun streaming into every arch , and lying along the cloisters ' , receives dark-shadow pictures on its bar of light , from the stone apostles on their pedestals , niched to the wall . Many of these works are for sale ; some of the best have been contributed by the King of the Belgians , the produce of his annual purchases at the Academies . The King and Prince of Prussia exhibit a fe ^ r pf the finest Berlin pictures , and the King the only portraits admitted , except those of the old masters . These were painted at his own cost , for the adornment of his palace , and Frederick William appears conscious that the illustrious collection bestows on him the same honour that his subjects have procure d for their country ; they are Bauch the sculptor , Filch the translator of Shakspere , Cornelius the painter , Bessel the astronomer , Schinkel the architect , Ideler the chronologist , and Humboldt , the author of Cosmos . The Prussians are but indifferent portrait-painters , but these subjects do not require mechanical skill to recommend them to public interest .

      HEALTH OP LONDON DURING THE WEEK . 1015 deaths have been registered in London during the week ending 10 th September . The mortality is below the corrected average of the week ; for within the ten preceding years , when the population of London was one-tenth part less numerous than it is now , the deaths ranged from 840 to 1040 , and in the year 1849 , when epidemic cholera had only begun to decline , the burials were 2865 . The deaths by diarrhoea have been 131 , less by 21 than were referred to that disease in the previous week , but more by one-third than the corrected average number ( 99 ) of preceding years . Only 7 deaths by cholera have

      happened ; 5 in children under 15 years of age , 2 in adults of 15 and under 60 . Six of the seven persons who died were males . The number of deaths by cholera in corresponding weeks of the 10 previous years were 4 , 1 , 2 , 8 , 7 , 6 , 1682 , 4 , 17 , and 5 , ™ so that the deaths do not exceed the usual number in ordinary years by certain forms of cholera . Two of the persons were , " however , registered as having died of ^ Asiatic cholera ; one a tanner ' s son , of the tender age of four years , the other a labourer ' s young wife , who died in . 12 hours . Both the deaths occurred within four days of each other in the same house , 12 , Turner ' s-retreat , Bermondsey , on the south side of the Thames .

      It is right under all the circumstances to reiterate the cautions which were given in August . All persons , whether children or adults , who suffer from diarrhoea , should apply forthwith for medical advice . And no time should be lost in putting our sanatory defences in a sound state ; as next summer their efficacy may again be severely tested . Last week the births of 843 boys and 826 girls , in all 1669 children , were registered in London . In the eight corresponding weeks of the years 1845-52 , the average number was 1327 .

      At the Royal Observatory , Greenwich , the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29 * 967 in . The reading of the barometer increased from 30-10 in . at the beginning of the week to 30-25 in . by 9 h . p . m- on the 5 th ; decreased to 29-63 in . by the morning of the 10 th , and increased to 29-70 in . by the end of the week . The mean temperature of the week was 56 * 1 dogs ., which is 2 degs . below the average of the same week in 38 years . The highest temperature of the week was 72-0 degs ., and occurred on Tuesday ; the lowest was 45-0 degs ., and occurred on the same day . The greatest difference between the dew point temperaturo and the air temperature was 14-1 degs . on Tuesday ; the least 1-0 cleg , on Saturday . Tho general direction of the wind was from tho north , and it blew at tho rate of CO miles a day . Tho electric condition of tho atmosphere has been positivo on every day of the week .

      MONEY MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE , Friday Evening , September 16 , 1853 . EviitT clay during tEe past week 'there has been a fall , sometimes as much as § per cent ., in Consols ; and a , still heavier depreciation in Railway Stock and Shares . On Thursday , the Bank rate of interest was raised to 4 ^ per cent . Although this measure was previously anticipated , immediately onits becoming known Consols sunk to 95 J f , having been aa high on the same day as £ $ ; and should the rate again be raised , as in all probability it will , to 5 per cent ., a still greater decrease in value lor a time may be expected . The disposition of the market generally is to believe that Consols will touch 90 , and that affairs are not yet at their worst ; while others , entertaining a contradictory opinion , look forward to a rapid reaction . French . Railway Shares have steadily declined , but not so heavily as Homo Stock . Of Gold Mining Shares , few maintain a more than nominal price , and that at a heavy discount . Nouveau Monde and Aqua Friiis , keeping tho best premiums , and firmest . South Australian Land havo dropped considerably , and now hover between 29 and 31 . London Chartered have fallen to par . In fact all tho markets are very gloomy . Consols closed 05 J for money , 95 $ £ for 13 th Oct . ; Exchequer Bills , 8 and C dis . ; Caledonians , 55 , 56 ; Eastern Counties , 12 i « .
