Text Appearing Before Image:
I notice this cut, not so much for rebuke of his apparent tenden-cies, as to point out what may fairly be expected under the present unintelligent regime. Onthe Old Sod (Harper s Monthly, October, 1879) will do more justice to Mr. Miiller. But thoselazy perpendiculars again!

Having no indi-viduality of his own, will hebe better able to appreciatethe individuality (the real per-sonality, I do not say onlythe outer clothes) of thepainter? J. H. Whitney doesa perfect piece of patient fac-simile in his cut of Joe (Scrib-ner, Vol. XVIII. p. 491, andPortfolio).
