bear followed ; at the height of 10 or 12
feet, she was so near him he gave her a
kick, and she slipped to the bottom. She
immediately reascended, while he exerted
himself to climb beyond her reach ; but
she again overtook him, and as he kicked

off his shoe, and again fell to the ground.
She then followed him up the third time,
and fell without doins him any injury.
He had now ascended the saplin about 20
feet, but the oid bear was soon at his hsrels

both fell together. On reaching the
ground the bear started from him about a

Sir Thomas Lawrence has latelv finish
ed a very fine painting of Mr. West, the
late President of the Roval Academy;
which was ordered by the America Acad
emy ol tine Arts in this city. Sir Thom
as has obtained permission to exhibit it in
Lngland lor one year, when it will be ship
ped to this port. The London Observer
contains the following critique on this per
formance :
Portrait of the late B. West, F. K. A. is a
magnificent and masterly performance. After
his own works a great man's' best monument
tliis is the way in which a mighty genius should
go uown to posterity. It is chaste, simple, and
severe : it produces all the effect possible ; and
this not by its ostentation, but its modesty. The
coloring is rich without gaudiness : the drapcry
is natunJ, without labor : there is a depth a,
clearness, and a tranquil majesty about this en
tire picture, which the greatest portrait painters
of antiquity might be proud of. It is a faithful re
sembl ance of the late President ; and one cf the
most durable and indisputable claims of the pres
ent to be his successor. It is at once a testimo
ny to the genius of the one and of the genius of
the other. If we were inclined to hir.': any thinr
